For Duanmu Huai, the incident involving Liliath's engagement was considered resolved—however, the truth was not that simple.
The very next day, Liliath showed up at Duanmu Huai's doorstep with a large pile of luggage. According to her explanation, although the Jimongli Family had abandoned the engagement, they had essentially kicked her out as an apology to the Phoenix Family.
So, she sought out Duanmu Huai.
"After all, since Naruse and Banriya can live here, I suppose there's no problem for me to do the same, right?"
With Liliath putting it that way, what could Duanmu Huai say?
While Naruse Mio seemed a little displeased, she couldn't openly oppose it. After all, she herself was living here as a guest—she couldn't very well claim it was okay for her but not for Liliath. And as for Duanmu Huai, he didn't mind too much, since he was planning to use Liliath's connections to keep an eye on the situation in the Devil World. So, he agreed.
