It was really hard to refuse such kindness, so Xiang Anning had no choice but to bite the bullet and go to the town mayor's house for dinner.
The mayor's birthday was quite low-key, without any banquet; they just prepared a table of homemade dishes!
Xiang Anning thought the mayor would invite many guests, but she was wrong again. Besides the mayor's sister and a kid around ten years old, the only guests were her and Si Wuxie.
Following the mayor into the dining room, Xiang Anning immediately saw Si Wuxie sitting in the corner reading a book.
However, Si Wuxie continued reading as if he didn't see Xiang Anning, or maybe he did and pretended not to.
Xiang Anning thought, "Hmph, what's so special about you!"
You ignore me, I ignore you too!
"Come, come, Anning, have a seat here! Young Master Si, please, have a seat too!"
The mayor warmly invited the two honored guests to sit down.
