"The Lantern Festival at Wavey River! I know, it's huge, gorgeous, and romantic. I've always wanted to go there, but I've never gotten the chance. This time, I'm definitely going!" Joey relaxed, and she started acting like herself.

Seeing that his daughter was so delighted, Moore naturally agreed, "It's a great idea to go there and have a look. It's the perfect timing for a relaxing trip.'

"By the way, Fade, who invited us? " Moore asked.

"It's Clara Moo of the Moo family," Fade replied.

When he heard this, Moore nodded his head. He also knew about Fade and Clara exploring the Dragon Mausoleum. "It's the lady from the Moo family. That's expected."

"Yes!" Fade nodded his head in agreement.

On the other hand, Joey quickly asked, "What girl from the Moo family? Who are you talking about? Brother Fade, are you flirting with a woman again? When I go back, I'm going to tell my sister-in-law, Susie, Yuri, and the others..."

Fade immediately fell speechless. "Joey, stop overthinking. Clara and I are just friends. Besides, you haven't even met Quin before. How would you be able to tell her?"

"I don't care. Anyway, I have to monitor you, to stop you from becoming a playboy," Joey replied proudly as she stared at him.

He looked at her helplessly, explaining how he had met Clara.

"I see!" After listening to his explanation, Joey nodded. After a pause, she suddenly stared at Fade and said, "Brother Fade, I guess that Clara must have fallen in love with you."

"What are you talking about? I've only just known her recently, how could she be in love with me? Stop spouting nonsense," He quickly denied.

"Brother Fade, you have to believe me. Women have very accurate intuition. Let me tell you, this is the effect of a hero saving a beauty, and love at first sight. As long as you are willing, I'm afraid Miss Moo will take the initiative to throw herself at you," she added.

"Girl, what are you talking about? It's getting late. You should go to bed early." Fade stretched out his right hand and flicked Joey's forehead, and then quickly left.

Soon, it was the day of the Lantern Festival. The Moo family had already sent someone over to send them an invitation.

That evening, Fade, Joey, and Moore changed and then took a ride to the Wavey River.

Although the sky was still bright and the Lantern Festival had not yet started, the two sides of the Wavey River were already packed with people. It was very lively.

On both sides of the Wavey River, there were all kinds of lanterns. There were antique paper lanterns, modern and fashionable lanterns, and Western- style lanterns, which were complex, colorful and dazzling. However, the most eye-catching thing was not the festive lights, but the boats on the Wavey River. All of them were decorated with exquisite lights. Each boat was decorated in an extremely unique way, which was very eye-catching. The crowd on the river banks was busy taking pictures of the boats.

Of course, the most beautiful scenery would be when the sky falls dark. When all the flower lanterns lit up, that would be the peak moment of the Lantern Festival.

The three of them watched all kinds of lanterns as they snacked by the river.

Unexpectedly, the river in front suddenly widened and the two railings on both sides had an opening and it was connected to the middle of the Wavey River.

As Fade glanced over, he found that there was a central island on the river where it had widened. There were exquisite wooden structures and human figures on that island.

Without a doubt, that central island was the optimum place to observe the Lantern Festival from.

However, not everyone could enter that place. On both sides of the railings, there were bodyguards. Without an invitation, they wouldn't be allowed to enter. Seeing this, Fade touched the invitation in his chest pocket, and thought of what Clara told him before. It seemed like that central island was the VIP section.

Fade was hesitating should he bring out his invitation cards and enter the VIP section.

Concurrently, a voice full of hatred came from behind them. "It's you!"

Hearing the sound, the three turned their heads and immediately saw a fat middle-aged man glaring at the three people with hatred. Beside the man, there was a young man who looked like he was in his thirties.

As soon as Fade and Joey saw them, they recognized them immediately. Their faces fell as they said, "Pollard, Bennett, it's you!"

The people opposite them were the people whom they had met when they went to the restaurant near the airport. It was Bennett Xu, the director of the Museum of Zobery District and the senior of Joey, Pollard.

Back then, Fade had made a phone call to Uriah, the chancellor of Capital University, and got Pollard fired directly. Then, he taught Bennett a lesson while he was there. Unexpectedly, they had met again. On the other end, Moore's face was filled with confusion. He didn't know who they were.

Joey quickly told him what had happened two days ago.

After hearing this, his gaze suddenly turned cold. He glared at the two of them, and there was even a hint of killing intent in his eyes. "Joey, I'll teach them a lesson."

When he saw this, Joey quickly grabbed him and said, "There's no need, it's just a small matter. It's already over, there's no need to worry about it."

Joey was not sure whether Moore would kill them if she didn't stop him. Even if he didn't kill them, they might still suffer from permanent injuries after that.

After all, after being hunted down by the Chiang family for so many years, he was definitely not someone to mess with.

On the other hand, Bennett and Pollard didn't know how lucky they were to have made it out alive. They glared at Fade and Joey with hatred, gritting their teeth as they said, "You still dare to show up here?" "All of you, hurry up and come over. Seize him!" Bennett waved his hand, giving the orders to the bodyguards at the banks of the river.

The bodyguards stared at them with a puzzled look, remaining motionless.

Bennett felt embarrassed, and his expression fell.

Pollard, who was beside him, quickly shouted to the bodyguards, "Are you all blind? The man standing in front of you is Mr. Xu, the director of the museum in Zobery District. Director Xu is a VIP who has an invitation. Are you all going to go against a VIP?"
