Situ Xin and Xiao Muli were childhood sweethearts and have been married for many years; she could understand every expression on Xiao Muli's face.
Just now, Xiao Muli had a serious face and said he needed to make a call. She guessed who he was calling. Thus, she wasn't concerned at all.
However, for the Xu family couple, who were unfamiliar and even not well-acquainted with Xiao Muli, their emotions were tense. They had just seen Xiao Muli change his demeanor; the couple looked at each other, their smiles now gone.
"Xiao Xin, if Patriarch Xiao has important matters to handle, let him be. Also, as hosts of today's banquet, it's not good for you to only accompany us as a couple," Mother Xu was really delighted to be in close contact with her idol. She also enjoyed chatting with Situ Xin, but they had their own important couple matters, and they couldn't just stick with them all the time.
