Banquet

"Third wife?" Hui Yue shook his head. "This is my beast companion Huli." He tried to explain, but he was as clear as the others that she did indeed look like his wife. Her affection was quite obvious.

"Huli let go, or I will remove the bond between us." Hui Yue said sternly, and although Huli clearly was not interested in doing so, she let go of Hui Yue's arm with an indignant expression on her face.

Seeing that she actually followed his orders, a smile finally appeared on Hui Yue's face. He gently petted the woman's head, "good girl." He said as if he were still speaking to the fox-shaped Huli. His act of kindness caused the sadness on her face to vanish and a trace of comfort appeared instead.

"Let's go to the banquet hall together." Hui Yue said with a smile as he started moving. He left behind his father who had a confused expression on his face.
