Chapter 1361


    Lina nodded and replied [Got it] in the group chat.


    Not long after, her phone chimed again.


    Renee, who had not spoken in the group for a while, also replied with a [Got it].


    Lina and Zuko exchanged smiles.


    Zuko gently kissed her forehead and whispered, “Don’t worry. Everything will be fine.”


    “I hope so.”


    Zuko continued. “By the way, about this… Let’s not have Lena attend.”

    Lina’s gaze dimmed. She then realized that this was a family gathering among the four major families.


    Even Nichs and Linda were not invited. Her attendance was as a member of the Hamertons, so it


    would not be appropriate for Lena toe along.


    As for Renee, she was engaged to Toph and could be considered half a Hamerton. She should meet


    these rtives to prepare for future asions.


    “Chris won’t be there either.” Zuko chuckled. “He’s always with Lena. They might go on a trip together


    that day. Isn’t that nice?”


    “Yeah, you’re right.” Lina smiled. “After we return, you must show me the guest list. I must do my


    homework in advance to avoid awkward situations.”


    “Understood!”

    The weekend arrived quickly. The Tanners’ celebration was unusually lively, doubling in merriness as


    they had a pair of twin boys.


    Josiah had been an extrovert in his youth, but unfortunately, his son had not inherited much of that


    ability. On the other hand, Toph, the second heir of the Hamertons, had instantly clicked with him.


    When two highly sociable individuals came together, the entire banquet hall seemed to turn even more


    festive. The Tanners hosted the event, but it had turned into Josiah and Toph’s home ground.


    Zephyr could not bear watching and quickly had Zuko drag his younger brother away. Zephyr then went


    to find his old buddy and indulged in a couple more drinks on the side.


    Zuko had to put in a lot of effort to pull his talkative brother away from the crowd and into the resting


    room.


    Lina and Renee were already inside, and they turned to smile at them upon hearing the door.


    Toph was much quieter in front of his own people. He rxedpletely, half-lying on the couch and


    ying a game.


    Lina teased him. “Hey, you’re a social extrovert in front of others, but what’s with this introverted energy


    when you’re around us? Is the game so fun?”


    Toph was focused on the game and did not hear what she said.


    Renee chuckled. “Lina, just let him y! He recently found a new game that’s just been released. It’s


    even a fine art-style game! I might not know how to y it, but the graphics are beautiful!”


    After a long time, Lina witnessed a truly joyful smile on Renee’s face. Lina had concerns that Renee


    might not wish to join this event. Not only did Renee show up, but she was also dressed beautifully and


    carried the white pearl purse Lina had gifted her.


    Lina’s tense heart rxed a little.


    Someone knocked on the door of the resting room, and a sweet voice sounded before the person could


    be seen. “So, you’re all hiding in here?”


    Lina and Renee were both stunned. They saw a sweet-looking young woman walk in, followed by a tall


    and handsome man. He exuded an air of elegance andposure with every move he made.


    “Yo!” Toph tossed his phone and sprang up, rushing toward the man.
