Douluo Continent II: The Peerless Tang Sect: Starting with a Bond to God King Tang San

Chapter 58 Gathering

Deng Mu cleared his throat and said, "The thing is, I have become an inner court disciple and will go to the inner court tomorrow."

Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan were both stunned when they heard this, and then their eyes were filled with surprise.

Tang Ya jumped up excitedly and exclaimed, "Wow, Xiao Mu, you're amazing! You became an inner courtyard disciple so quickly! That's fantastic!"

Although Jiang Nannan had expected this, she still smiled gently and said softly, "Yes, Xiao Mu, I knew you could do it. Not just anyone can get into the inner courtyard. The fact that you were selected so quickly is enough to prove your ability."

The two of them felt they should be able to enter the inner courtyard, but it wouldn't be that easy.

Tang Ya increasingly felt that her engagement to Deng Mu was a wise choice; she had a capable husband and could revitalize the entire Tang Clan.

Deng Mu scratched his head, looking a little shy, and replied, "Sister, you flatter me. I was just lucky. I was planning to have a get-together with everyone tonight, but I'm worried about how to inform Huo Yutong and Xiao Xiao. It's inconvenient for me to go to their dorm. Could you please pass on the message?"

Tang Ya patted her chest and said confidently, "Leave this to me. I'll go find them with Sister Nan Nan right now and make sure we pass on the message. You can go and prepare some good food and drinks. Have a great time tonight!"

Jiang Nannan echoed, "Yes, don't worry, we'll go and inform them right away, so you won't miss your gathering."

After saying that, Tang Ya grabbed Jiang Nannan and hurried towards Huo Yutong and Xiao Xiao.

As Deng Mu walked out of Shrek Academy, he pondered the arrangements for the gathering.

Thinking about having a good time with everyone tonight, I need to make sure everything is prepared.

Once outside the college gates, the streets were bustling with traffic and people, lined with shops on both sides, and the signs of pubs and restaurants fluttered in the wind.

Deng Mu looked at each house one by one, his eyes scrutinizing, determined to find the most suitable place.

After walking for about fifteen minutes, he stopped in front of a restaurant called Jufulou.

This restaurant looks very grand, with three-story wooden pavilions, carved beams and painted rafters, and bright and eye-catching colorful paintings on the eaves and brackets, which shine brightly in the sunlight.

Upon seeing Deng Mu dressed in Shrek Academy attire, the waiter at the door hurriedly greeted him with a broad smile, saying warmly, "Young master, would you like to dine in? Our Jufulou is a renowned establishment in this area, with exceptional dishes and exquisitely furnished and comfortable private rooms. Please come in."

Deng Mu nodded slightly and stepped into the restaurant. The lobby was spacious and bright, with tables and chairs arranged neatly. The laughter and chatter of diners, along with the clinking of cups and plates, filled the air.

Upon seeing a customer enter, the innkeeper immediately came out from behind the counter, smiling obsequiously, and asked, "Young master, are you here for a quick bite, a stay, or would you like to reserve a private room for a banquet?"

Deng Mu stated frankly, "I'd like to book a private room; I'm having a get-together with friends tonight."

The innkeeper's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly began to introduce the rooms: "Young master, you've come to the right place! Each of our private rooms has its own unique features. There's the Wangshu Pavilion, with its window overlooking the street view, elegantly and exquisitely decorated..."

After listening to the innkeeper's introduction, Deng Mu weighed the options in his mind. He thought that everyone should be able to chat and laugh freely, and it would be better if the room was spacious. So he said, "Then I'll book the Juxian Hall. By the way, how are your dishes? You'd better bring out your best dishes, as we have important friends here tonight."

The innkeeper patted his chest and gave a brief description of the restaurant's signboard.

Deng Mu listened to the description, a slight smile appeared on his lips, and he nodded in satisfaction. He paid the deposit and carefully instructed that the dishes should be served after everyone had arrived, so as not to serve them too early and they would get cold and lose their flavor.

After making the arrangements, Deng Mu returned to the college and headed towards the freshmen dormitory.

When Deng Mu arrived at the freshman dormitory building, he ran into Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan, who were coming downstairs.

Deng Mu looked at Tang Ya and Jiang Nan and asked, "Sister Xiaoya, Sister, how is it?"

Tang Ya patted Deng Mu on the shoulder with a smile and said, "Don't worry, Xiao Mu, I've delivered the message. They're both so happy. They said they'd go together tonight and kept praising you for being so good at getting into the inner courtyard."

Jiang Nannan smiled and nodded in agreement: "Yes, everything has been notified. You can just focus on preparing for the party tonight. The two of them should be getting ready right now."

Thinking of Huo Yutong and Xiao Xiao's appearance, she couldn't help but laugh.

Upon learning that Huo Yutong and Xiao Xiao already knew, Deng Mu thanked Jiang Nannan and the others.

Tang Ya waved her hand dismissively and said, "Why are you being so polite with us? It's nothing. By the way, how are things going on your end? Have you booked a private room?"

Deng Mu replied with a smile, "Everything is arranged. We've booked the Juxian Hall at Jufulou Restaurant. The place looks pretty good, and the dishes are all arranged. We're just waiting for everyone to arrive tonight so we can have a lively time."

Tang Ya's eyes lit up, and she said excitedly, "Wow, Jufulou! That's a great place! I've heard their food is delicious. I have to try it tonight. Okay, let's go back and get ready. See you tonight!"

Jiang Nannan nodded and said, "Okay, see you tonight. Xiao Mu, you should check again, make sure you don't forget anything."

After saying that, Tang Ya grabbed Jiang Nannan and left in a hurry.

Seeing Jiang Nannan and Tang Ya leave, Deng Mu headed towards his dormitory, waiting for the party that evening.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

……

Before we knew it, it was evening.

Deng Mu and Wang Dong went together to Jufulou outside the academy.

Half an hour later, Deng Mu and his group arrived at the entrance of Jufulou.

The waiter at the door saw them and immediately came up to them with a big smile, saying, "Gentlemen and ladies, we've been waiting for you! Please come in, a private room has been prepared for you."

The group followed the waiter into Jufulou and arrived at Juxian Hall.

Deng Mu and the others entered the Juxian Hall and saw that Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan had already arrived and were sitting there chatting and laughing.

As soon as Tang Ya saw them, she immediately stood up, smiling and waving, "You've finally arrived! Nan Nan and I have been waiting for ages, just hoping this gathering would start soon!"

Jiang Nannan also stood up, smiling and nodding, "Please sit down, everyone. This Jufulou restaurant looks really nice."

Everyone took their seats and looked around the exquisitely and comfortably decorated private room. The tables and chairs were brand new, and several elegant calligraphy and paintings hung on the walls, adding a touch of refinement.

Tea and some appetizers were already laid out on the table, emitting an enticing aroma.

Deng Mu smiled and said to everyone, "The reason we've gathered here today is so that I can have a good time with everyone before I go to the inner courtyard, and thank you all for your care and support."
