159 Chapter 159 An Angel from Beyond (1/2)

”Do you have any idea why Clark is calling us all at the same time, Old Peng?” Ning Xi asked towards the middle aged man at her side.

She was still not used to looking at the invigorated appearance of Old Peng but nevertheless, the princess was slowly adapting to the current change on one of the closest people in our bored gamer's heart.

Old Peng was even perhaps no different than a family towards the ever enigmatic Clark at the moment.

This was why Princess Ning Xi and her mother Wan Fei had always treated Old Peng with much respect and definitely not a mere slave in the family.

'Old Peng is certainly not that old anymore and i would think that he will only grow younger with time.' Ning Xi mused inside.

She knew for a fact that with such a talented and powerful backer behind the old man like Clark, there was only a bright future ahead for this very faithful servant.

'But i guess the same could be said also for us then.' Ning Xi concluded in silence because she realized that she and her mother were also in the same boat of Old Peng.

”I don't know anything, Princess Ning Xi. I apologize for this old man's inadequacies.” Old Peng paused and lent a short bow towards Ning Xi.

The latter also stopped walking and gazed at the middle aged man with exasperation.

”I told you time and time again that you can call me Ning Xi or even Xi'er, Old Peng. You shouldn't be so rigid before me.” Ning Xi reminded the old man for the umpteenth time.

”I'm sorry, Princess Ning Xi but i really could not do that. I am but a lowly slave of the Lu Family and I am fully aware of the limitations of my station in life.”

And same as always, Old Peng replied with the usual humble words that he had uttered countless times already.

”But you and Clark are almost the same as f...” Ning Xi had wanted to argue but alas, there was a wiser head amongst them that prohibited her from doing exactly what she had in mind.

”Let Old Peng be, Xixi. There are some things in life that you just can't undo with mere words and a simple request.”

Wan Fei interrupted her daughter in mid speech as she looked intently on the bowed head of Old Peng.

The good servant slave had never once raised his head in the process until Ning Xi could only accept the truth of Lai Peng's stubborn character.

”I understand, mother.” The Princess of Haran nodded and took the first steps towards the long stairways that awaited their advent.

”CREAK!” The double doors opened up to spit the glorious figures of 2 equally beautiful women.

Ning Xi looked pure in her white dress while her mother Wan Fei stood in a flaming sexy fairy dress.

The latter as of late has been unusually bold in her choice of garments and everyone around her noticed this fact in plain aces.

Not that our avid gamer Clark would spill the beans for everyone's satisfaction.

”It's good that you have all arrived in time. Is our dinner ready downstairs?” Our bored gamer welcomed his trio of guests but other than that, he remained lazily lying down on his bed.

There was no need for much ceremony in front of his family in this xianxia world and so Clark continued to do what he was always best at.

He took a deep breath and enjoyed the moment for what it was. Every tick of the clock was time that he could never get back and so he relished every second of it to the fullest.

'And right now, i'm particularly examining 2 incredible feminine masterpieces before my eyes.' Clark did not notice that there was already a naughty smile that was plastered on his face.

”We have already cooked and prepared our dinner downstairs, Clark. Do you want us to bring some food in here?” Wan Fei asked as she tried to fathom the mind of our bored gamer.

”No. I will join you later in dinner. But first, there's something I need to give to you.” Clark replied and threw an item into the air.

The familiar little thing traversed the distance between the two parties in quick speed but it was not enough for Wan Fei to miss such an easy catch.

”GRIP!” The Queen of Haran caught the object without suspense and even before she opened her palms to inspect the item with her eyes, she had already known what it was but not its purpose.

However, Wan Fei did not fail to take this chance to make a half truth jest in the moment.

”Why? Is this a marriage proposal, Clark? If it is then you won't ever hear me say nay in my lips.” Wan Fei smiled sweetly while she presented an interspatial ring between her fingers.

A moment later, she also got a warm response from our bored gamer.
