014 Little Fairy?!
When these words were uttered, everyone instantly fell silent as chickens.
Jiang Xuan's choice of words was subtle, as if he had said nothing, but everyone in the room understood everything and, without a prior agreement, cast sympathetic glances toward Jiang Yunzhou.
Jiang Yunzhou himself was utterly baffled.
Just as he was about to explain, Jiang Xuan, expressionless and with a sharp gaze, turned his head slightly, and a sudden oppressive force struck, causing Jiang Yunzhou to inhale sharply and swallow all his complaints.
Previously, Xia Yuzheng had no idea that Jiang Yunzhou had this problem.
However, as the young master of the Jiang Family, even if it was discovered, it couldn't possibly be publicized.
He pretended to go for a smoke, giving Xia Xing a meaningful look, and the two of them left one after the other, apparently to discuss something.
Xu He breathed a sigh of relief as if she had survived a calamity, then realized she had been too obvious and awkwardly laughed, "Um… I'll go check if Little Tiangao is awake."
Xia Yourong frantically stood up as well, "Mom, I'll come with you!"
Jiang Yunzhou: ...
Just a moment ago, she kept calling him "Brother Yunzhou," and now her face changed instantly.
They were classmates, after all!
Seeing the Xia family members avoiding him like the plague, he suddenly felt that the price he paid to break off the engagement was too steep!
"Little uncle, why imply that I am incapable…"
The last word "incapable" was spoken in a very soft voice.
Jiang Xuan calmly retorted, "If I hadn't said that, how could we call off the engagement? Do you want the Jiang Family to be slandered for treachery?"
Jiang Yunzhou thought about it and felt that his uncle had a point, "But what if I really want to get married in the future?"
Jiang Xuan's voice was cool and deep, "Then just get married."
Jiang Yunzhou let out a deep sigh of relief.
But before he could feel relieved for even a second, he heard his uncle add, "Just delay having children for a few years."
It was utterly merciless.
Incredibly cold-hearted.
Jiang Yunzhou: ಥ_ಥ
Baby's heart is filled with sorrow.
Xu He and Xia Yourong had just walked into the gallery when they met Xia Ye coming out from her room.
Despite having prepared several beautiful outfits for her, she had only chosen a plain white T-shirt and a pair of loose, ripped jeans.
If it hadn't been for what just happened, Xu He would definitely have urged her to change into another outfit.
But now…
The simpler, the better!
"Little Tiangao, come, mom will introduce you to the Jiang family."
The three of them headed back to the living room while Mrs. Wu led the maid into Xia Ye's room to tidy up.
"Mrs. Wu, what time is it, and the second young mistress has just woken up?"
Mrs. Wu smirked, "Well, she just got back, didn't she?"
"The eldest young mistress woke up at 7 a.m."
Mrs. Wu glanced outside the door and scoffed lightly, "Can the second young mistress compare with the eldest young mistress?"
"That's true," the maid nodded. "By the way, Mrs. Wu, when I was cleaning this morning, the plant in the living room seemed to be balding—how did that happen?"
Mrs. Wu furrowed her brow, "Are you seeing things? We don't have small animals at home. How could a healthy plant just become bald?"
The maid tilted her head, recalling for a while, then remained silent.
Returning to the living room, Xia Yourong, usually very assertive, was walking with her head down, silent as if she had suffered a great blow.
Xia Ye walked leisurely behind, her hands in her pockets, her posture cool as she rotated her neck.
There were traces of green liquid clinging to her slender jade-like fingers tucked in her pockets.
She had actually been awake for a long time, probably around five.
She was busy with some things and then meditated in her room.
The spiritual energy seemed to be weakening again.
This couldn't continue.
**
The scene returned to the living room, where Xia Yuzheng and Xia Xing were back in their places.
After a brief chat among them, Jiang Yunzhou felt calmer.
He realized that as long as he could escape that country fiancée, any reason was bearable!
Being incapable was just fine!
Just as he was thinking this, he saw Xia Xing straightening up, looking behind him with a smile, "Has Little Tiangao woken up?"
Jiang Yunzhou turned around impatiently; he really did not want to greet her.
"You..."
But before he could finish his first syllable, as soon as he saw the girl's face, he was so shocked he nearly bit his tongue—
"Little Fairy?!"
