This young girl was about the same age as Adam Bennett, and what surprised Adam Bennett was that her looks were actually even more beautiful than Grace Bennett. In this family, perhaps only the one as pure as a blue lotus, Emily Bennett, could compare to her. No wonder this man looked down on the other ordinary girls in the clan.

Dangling from the girl's delicate earlobe was a green jade pendant, which gave off a crisp, clear sound as it swayed gently, suddenly revealing a touch of noble elegance...

In addition, beside the girl's already developing, delicate chest, there were three golden stars drawn.

"A three-star Fighter. This girl... if she didn't rely on external aids, then she must be an extraordinary genius!" Taking a quiet breath in his heart, Adam Bennett's gaze only lingered on the girl's cold and beautiful face for a moment before moving away. No matter what, beneath his childish appearance, he possessed a mature soul. Although the girl was very beautiful, he had no intention of making a fool of himself by drooling like a lecher.

Adam Bennett's action seemed to surprise the girl a little. Although she wasn't the type to think the world revolved around her, she was well aware of her own beauty and temperament. Adam Bennett's casual reaction did catch her off guard, but that was all.

"Father, three Elders!" She quickly stepped forward and respectfully saluted the four people in the seats of honor, including William Bennett.

"Hehe, Yan'er, you're here. Come, have a seat." Seeing Adam Bennett arrive, William Bennett stopped his cheerful conversation with the guests, nodded at him, and waved his hand.

Smiling and nodding, Adam Bennett pretended not to notice the impatience and faint disdain in the eyes of the three Elders beside him. He glanced around the hall, only to be surprised to find that there was no seat for him...

"Sigh, my status in this family is really getting lower and lower. It used to be fine, but now they're embarrassing me in front of guests. These three old geezers..." With a self-mocking smile in his heart, Adam Bennett shook his head inwardly.

Seeing Adam Bennett standing there motionless, the young people of the clan around him couldn't help but let out mocking laughter, clearly enjoying the sight of his embarrassment.

At this moment, William Bennett on the dais also noticed Adam Bennett's awkwardness. A flash of anger crossed his face as he frowned at the elder beside him and said, "Second Elder, you..."

"Ahem, my apologies, I actually forgot about the Third Young Master. Hehe, I'll have someone prepare a seat right away!" The yellow-robed elder, being glared at by William Bennett, gave a faint smile and patted his forehead "self-reproachfully," but the ridicule in his eyes was barely concealed.

"Adam Bennett ge, sit here!" The girl's gentle laughter suddenly rang out in the hall.

The three Elders were slightly stunned, their gazes shifting to the quiet Emily Bennett in the corner. Their mouths moved, but none of them dared to say another word...

In the corner of the hall, Emily Bennett closed the thick book in her hands with a gentle smile, her manner elegant and composed. She blinked adorably at Adam Bennett.

Looking at Emily Bennett's smiling little face, Adam Bennett hesitated for a moment, touched his nose, nodded, and then, under the jealous gazes of many young men, walked over and sat down next to her.

"You helped me out again." Breathing in the faint fragrance of the girl beside him, Adam Bennett chuckled softly.

Emily Bennett gave a gentle smile, her little face showing cute dimples. Her slender fingers once again opened the ancient-looking book in her hands. Though still young, she had a kind of intellectual beauty. Her long lashes fluttered as she lingered over the pages for a moment, then she suddenly said in a slightly wistful tone, "Adam Bennett ge, it's been three years since you and Emily sat together alone, hasn't it?"

"Uh... Now Emily is a genius in the family. Isn't it easy for you to make friends?" Seeing the girl's slightly resentful, smooth profile, Adam Bennett gave a dry laugh.

"When Emily was four to six years old, every night someone would sneak into my room and, using a rather clumsy technique and not-so-strong Dou Qi, nurture my bones and meridians. Every time, he would leave exhausted and drenched in sweat. Adam Bennett ge, who do you think it was?" Emily was silent for a while, then suddenly turned her head and gave Adam Bennett a sweet smile. The unique charm of a young girl made the eyes of the boys around them light up.

"Ahem... H-how would I know? We were so little then, still crawling on the floor. How could I know?" Adam Bennett's heart skipped a beat. He gave a couple of awkward laughs, then guiltily turned his gaze toward the hall.

"Hee hee..." Seeing Adam Bennett's reaction, Emily Bennett's small mouth curved into a gentle smile. Her gaze returned to her book, and she seemed to mutter softly, "Even though I know he meant well, Emily is still a girl, right? What reason is there for secretly touching a girl's body? If Emily finds out who it was, hmph..."

The corners of Adam Bennett's mouth twitched, and he felt a little guilty inside. He looked at his nose, his nose at his heart, and said nothing...

In the hall, William Bennett and the three Elders were enthusiastically conversing with the unfamiliar old man. However, the old man seemed to have something difficult to say. Every time he was about to speak, he would swallow his words with a helpless sigh. Whenever this happened, the noble young girl beside him couldn't help but shoot him a glare...

After listening for a while, Adam Bennett soon grew bored and shook his head...
