Under Stuart's warm hospitality, Xu Ming stayed at the mansion for the night.

The following day, accompanied by the family, Xu Mingmei enjoyed a delicious breakfast.

Then, Xu Ming took his leave.

"Eri, go see your classmate off."

Ignoring his wife's questioning gaze, Mr. Stewart said something that surprised everyone.

"Yes, Father."

Eriri was taken aback for a moment, then nodded slightly.

Before Xu Ming could refuse, Stewart said with a smile:

"Xu Ming, you solved such a big problem for Eriri, so it's only right that she sees you off. Besides, you're classmates, so you must have something to talk about. We won't interfere."

Since things had come to this point, Xu Ming naturally couldn't refuse.

So the two of them left the mansion with a strange atmosphere in their hearts.

Stuart stood on the terrace, watching the two figures walk away, lost in thought.

"Darling, what are your plans?"

Mrs. Sayuri's voice suddenly came from behind him.

Stuart sighed.

“Honey, I’m doing this all for our daughter’s sake.”

Chapter Ninety-Three: Stuart's Little Thoughts

Meeting his wife's questioning gaze, Stewart said with a worried expression:

"You know, because of my family, I've also come into contact with some people from the underworld and know some inside stories."

Anyone who has been entangled by "strange things" is very likely to be entangled by other "strange things" in the future.

I had Eriri spend a lot of time with Xu Ming so she could build a good relationship with him; perhaps that relationship could save her life in the future.

Stuart's concerns are not unfounded.

Anyone who has been entangled by 'strange' things will have residual negative energy on their body. This energy is like a mark to other 'strange' things, so the probability of being entangled again is naturally higher.

"So that's how it is. I thought..."

Mrs. Sayuri looked slightly embarrassed.

Stuart looked on with a mocking expression.

"What did you think? That I had my eye on him and wanted him to marry Eriri?...Wait a minute!"

Then he touched his chin, a thoughtful expression on his face, as if he were seriously considering the question.

"This idea seems pretty good. He would never abandon his wife if she were in danger. Besides, he's a young and promising exorcist, perfectly worthy of Eriri."

Stuart seemed to notice the worry on his wife's face and patted the back of her hand.

"Don't worry, I won't force Eriri."

Let her make her own choice; that way, she will find true happiness in the future.

Despite being born into a wealthy and influential family, Stewart is an enlightened and loving father.

"Honey……"

Mrs. Lily looked at her husband with gratitude, knowing how much he had compromised and sacrificed.

Not to mention the deep affection between the couple.

Xu Ming and Eriri were walking down the street.

Suddenly, Xu Ming felt someone tugging at his clothes from behind.

Xu Ming turned his head in confusion and saw Eriri looking at him with a shy expression.

"Xu Ming, Father just asked me to take you there, don't overthink it."

'You're overthinking it...'

Xu Ming was speechless.

"Also, that thing in my room...did you see it?"

Eriri stammered.

"That? Uh~ are you talking about game consoles, comics, or your doujinshi?"

Xu Ming didn't come over at first, but after a while, he showed a look of sudden realization.

Eriri's face flushed bright red instantly. She suddenly grabbed Xu Ming's clothes and started pulling them forcefully.

I mean all of them! All of them!

Ahhh!! You saw it all! Forget it! You have to forget it!!

Xu Ming looked at Eriri, who had suddenly started to go berserk, and a mocking smile appeared on his face.

"Eri-kun, is it really okay for you to be pulling and tugging like this in the street?"

"What?!"

Eriri raised her head in dissatisfaction and looked in the direction Xu Ming was pointing.

Several passersby stood across the street, staring at her in shock, their faces full of "you city folks know how to have fun."

"what!!"

Eriri's face turned even redder. She clutched her head and wailed, shaking it rapidly. Her twin ponytails, tied on either side, lashed out at Xu Ming like whips.

"Hey! What are you doing?!"

Caught off guard, Xu Ming retreated in a very disheveled state.

"I'm going to kill you! That way, no one will know my secret!"

Eriri wore a broken smile as she wildly brandished her 'double whips'.

'Tsk! This guy is completely broken...'

Xu Ming was immediately frustrated.

Seeing this, the passersby across the street became even more engrossed in watching the drama unfold.

Two of the elderly people couldn't help but sigh.

"It's so good to be young!"

Xu Ming finally waited until Eriri had calmed down and stopped making a fuss.

"Have you calmed down yet? If you have, then listen to me."

Eriri stood with her hands on her hips, panting heavily, staring at him fiercely without saying a word.

"So what if I found out you're an otaku and a doujinshi artist? Now you know I'm an exorcist, so we're even."

Xu Ming spread his hands.

"How can you calculate it like that!"

Eriri looked indignant.

"Oh, you haven't forgotten what I do, have you?"

Xu Ming threatened with ill intent.

"Since I can expel the vengeful spirit for you, I can also find another vengeful spirit to haunt you every day. So, are you afraid?"

Eriri's body trembled violently, her anger vanished, and she stared at Xu Ming with a look of terror.

She then remembered that the seemingly kind and smiling man in front of her was actually an exorcist, even more terrifying than a vengeful spirit.

Eriri was trembling with fear, looking like she didn't dare to move.

Xu Ming smiled with satisfaction.

This is exactly the effect he wanted.

He couldn't stand it if Eriri kept bothering him with this trivial matter.

"Do you understand? If you understand, then stop bothering me. To be honest, whether you're a doujinshi artist or a yaoi writer, I have absolutely no interest in you."

Eriri immediately wore an expression of anger that she dared not express.

"Humph!"

The two parted on bad terms.

Eriri completely wasted her father's good intentions because of her own sense of shame.

On his way home, Xu Ming casually sent a message to Kato Megumi to indicate that the request had been completed.

Kato Megumi stated that the association would send someone to verify the information, and once confirmed, the commission would be directly deposited into Xu Ming's account.

That's exactly what Xu Ming wanted to hear from her.

Afterwards, Xu Ming had the system settle the extra task, and he received an extra 40 Weird Points.

This simple extra task has no complicated details and does not require Xu Ming to investigate in detail. The reward given is only the simplest amount of Weird Points, which can be regarded as a new supplement to the source of Weird Points.

Meanwhile, Eriri returned home looking sullen.

"Eiri Riri?"

Mrs. Lily looked at her daughter with some suspicion.

"Mom, I'm not feeling well, I'll go back to my room to rest."

Eriri spoke first, then turned and went straight back to her room.

The couple looked at each other and saw the helplessness in each other's eyes.

They could all see that Eriri and Xu Ming didn't get along well, wasting the opportunity they had created.

'This child is such a worry...'

The couple sighed inwardly almost simultaneously.
