The sun set, and the sky gradually darkened.

Lu Xining said to the two clinging to her side, "Jing Zheng, take Nuonuo back to the room."

She had the butler lead the guests to the tea room located in the back of the courtyard.

She herself quickly returned to her room to change out of her casual clothes and into a more formal outfit before swiftly heading out.

Unlike the smaller side parlor where she met Zhang Yuzhi before, the tea room at the back was larger and brighter, with interiors made from the world's top materials, soundproof and private, a tranquil environment ideal for negotiations.

A group of distinguished individuals was approaching her from not far away.

Lu Xining stepped forward to greet them, "Old Xi, what brings you here today?"

Xi Juan, clad in an ash-gray traditional Chinese outfit, walked with a steady and unhurried pace, his unique demeanor and elegance untouched by the years, every step firm and strong.

He was now respectfully addressed as "Old Xi."
