Li Xiangyi and Lu Xiaofeng are indeed kindred spirits; since they met, they have been inseparable for the past few days.

"I'm so angry! I wanted to help Li Xiangyi with his missions, but he said he preferred the fun of exploring on his own and didn't want me to help him. Then Lu Xiaofeng came along, and what? He didn't need the fun of exploring alone anymore. Lu Xiaofeng just left us here and ran off with Li Xiangyi!" Hongfei complained to Hua Manlou about Li Xiangyi and Lu Xiaofeng.

Hua Manlou smiled and said to Hong Fei, "Alright, alright, don't be angry. Aren't I here with you?"

"Thank goodness for you, Hua Manlou. Those two are so fickle; they've abandoned their old friends for new ones. We haven't seen them at all these past few days. It's outrageous!" Hong Fei said indignantly.

"I was the one who invited you all here, but that bastard Li Xiangyi ran off with Lu Xiaofeng, and Lu Xiaofeng just went with him. He left you and me here? Those two despicable guys!!" Hong Fei was still grumbling about Li Xiangyi and Lu Xiaofeng. Hua Manlou stood by, smiling but saying nothing.

Hong Fei grew increasingly angry as she spoke, muttering, "No, I can't stand it!" Then, as if struck by a sudden thought, she gave a mysterious smile. She pulled a Maitreya Buddha statue from her backpack; the statue was named "Laughing Under the Clear Lamp." Hong Fei held the statue in her hands, playing with it, her smile clearly malicious.

Hua Manlou saw Hong Fei take out a Maitreya Buddha statue and then stand there with a malicious smile. So he asked Hong Fei, "What's this?"

“Oh, this is a toy, a very interesting toy,” Hongfei said to Huamanlou.

"Oh, what do you mean by 'interesting'?" Hua Manlou asked, a little curious.

"Hehe~ I won't tell you yet. You'll find out in a bit." Hong Fei kept it a secret.

Hong Fei's eyes darted around, and she took out a reunion banquet from her backpack, placing it on the open ground next to her, instantly creating a large banquet table.

When Hua Manlou saw Hong Fei set up a banquet table, he walked over to the table and asked, "Hey, what are you doing? Why are you setting up such a big banquet?"

"I'll treat you to a feast!" Hong Fei said with a smile.

"What kind of banquet is this?" Hua Manlou asked.

"A reunion feast!" Hong Fei replied.

“This isn’t cheap!” Hua Manlou said.

"Thank goodness, I made this myself," Hongfei said.

"Wait a moment. I'll send messages to the two of them and tell them to come back for the banquet." Hong Fei said to Hua Manlou while sending messages to Lu Xiaofeng and Li Xiangyi.

When Lu Xiaofeng and Li Xiangyi heard that Hong Fei was inviting them to a banquet, they replied that they would be there soon, and the two of them arrived together shortly afterward.

"Wow! What a lavish feast!" Lu Xiaofeng exclaimed.

Li Xiangyi also said, "It's quite big. This table must be expensive."

Hongfei asked, "You two, just tell me if you want to eat or not. What are you complaining about? We didn't ask you to pay."

"Eat up! Why not eat? It's Hongfei's treat. Who would dare not give us face, right, Lu Xiaofeng?" Li Xiangyi said jokingly.

“Yes, this is fine wine and food. And it’s Hongfei’s treat, how can we not eat?” Lu Xiaofeng echoed Li Xiangyi’s words.

"You two are talking too much nonsense, one after the other. Come and take your seats." Hong Fei led the way, sitting down. (Chairs aren't provided in the world of JX3, but they were set up here.)

Hua Manlou sat down next to Hong Fei, and Li Xiangyi, seeing that they were both seated, also gestured for Lu Xiaofeng to sit down, which Lu Xiaofeng readily accepted. After all, they were friends; what was the point of being polite?

After everyone was seated, they began eating and drinking. Lu Xiaofeng, Li Xiangyi, and Hua Manlou started toasting and drinking. Hongfei watched the three of them drinking and chatting while she ate alone. They were having such a lively conversation, leaving her all alone eating. She was furious. What? Don't kids have rights? They didn't even ask if she wanted a drink! They didn't even include her in their conversation.

Seeing that Lu Xiaofeng, Li Xiangyi, and Hua Manlou hadn't noticed her, Hongfei took out "Qingdeng Xiaoyu" from her bag and gave it to Lu Xiaofeng and Li Xiangyi each. As for Hua Manlou, she let him off the hook because he had spent time with her during this period.

Li Xiangyi and Lu Xiaofeng were drinking with Hua Manlou. Suddenly, Li Xiangyi and Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help but burst into laughter, laughing uncontrollably. All three were bewildered. Hua Manlou had no idea why the two of them had suddenly started laughing after drinking so much.

Lu Xiaofeng and Li Xiangyi didn't know why they couldn't help but laugh; they couldn't control themselves.

Lu Xiaofeng clutched his stomach, doubled over with laughter. Li Xiangyi pounded the table, laughing until his stomach cramped. At that moment, Hua Manlou noticed Hong Fei, who was holding a Maitreya Buddha statue, standing nearby.

When Hongfei saw Hua Manlou looking at her, she shook the Maitreya Buddha statue in her hand at Hua Manlou.

"Did you do something, Hongfei?" Hua Manlou asked.

“Yes!” Redback answered readily.

Hua Manlou pointed to Li Xiangyi and Lu Xiaofeng, who were laughing uncontrollably beside him, and asked, "Are they alright? How did you do that?"

"It's nothing, it's just a little laugh, it'll be fine in a bit. As for how it works? Look at the statue in your hand? This is called 'Laughter Under the Clear Lamp,' it's a quirky prank. When you use it on someone, the person being pranked will laugh nonstop. How about that? Pretty good, right?" Hong Fei said.

Hua Manlou glanced at Lu Xiaofeng and Li Xiangyi, who were laughing uncontrollably, then looked at Hong Fei and, with a strong desire to survive, said to Hong Fei, "Not bad, really not bad. Just don't use it on me."

Although Li Xiangyi and Lu Xiaofeng couldn't stop laughing, they both heard what Hua Manlou and Hong Fei said.

"Hongfei, hahaha~ What did I do to offend you? Hahaha~ Please forgive me. Hahaha~" Lu Xiaofeng begged for mercy.

“Yes, yes, yes. Hahaha~ If I did anything to upset you, hahaha~ I’ll change, okay? Hahaha~” Li Xiangyi chimed in.

"No! You two went off to be all lovey-dovey. How could you possibly have offended me?" Hong Fei said sarcastically to Lu Xiaofeng and Li Xiangyi.

"No, haha~ what do you mean by 'loving each other'? Hahaha~ don't use words like that. Hahaha~" Lu Xiaofeng corrected Hong Fei's choice of words.

“Me and Lu Xiaofeng, hahaha~ that’s called having the same ideals. Hahaha~” Li Xiangyi also said.

"How long are you going to laugh like this? Hahaha~" Lu Xiaofeng asked.

“I want to know too. Hahaha~” Li Xiangyi said.

Hong Fei glanced at Lu Xiaofeng and Li Xiangyi, who were still laughing, and said casually, "Don't worry, it won't last long. Just a few minutes. Just bear with it."

When Lu Xiaofeng and Li Xiangyi heard how many minutes it would take, they both pointed at Hong Fei and said, "Little girl, you're something else! You just wait and see."

Hongfei made a face at the two of them and said, "Tch! I'm not afraid of you."
