Yun Xi sat, sneaking glances at the man to her right who was sitting in the most important seat at the table.

In front of the a.s.sembled elders, he was the junior.

However, his ident.i.ty identified him as of superior status.

She had to admit that in Jingdu his status and accomplishments warranted the special treatment he received.

Mu Feichi was the only Young Marshal in country C. He had given meritorious services and came from a century-old distinguished family.

His family was extremely renowned. Whether in terms of business or industry or compared to other distinguished families, they were unrivaled in terms of affluence. None of the four large distinguished families dared to offend him.

And Mu Feichi, as the heir of this family and the youngest patriarch, was domineering and resolute. Even elders like Mr. Jiang and Mr. Chen had to revere him.

At that moment, Yun Xi suddenly realized that the distance between her and Mu Feichi was about 1,000 miles.

When Jiang Henglin saw Yun Xi, his face showed unconcealed disgust and contempt.

In his eyes, a vindictive woman like Yun Xi appearing in such a place meant nothing more than her trying to social climb by any means. He felt that she was a hypocrite who was approaching the Chen family with ulterior motives.

Yun Xi remained impa.s.sive, and she turned a completely blind eye to Jiang Henglin’s hostility.

“h.e.l.lo, Grandpa Jiang!” As a junior, Yun Xi first greeted him.

“The girl is here too! I just heard from the housekeeper that you cured the old Madame’s disease. Is that true?”

“That’s because old Madame is lucky. I was simply making the medicine according to the prescriptions.”

Yun Xi smiled softly, her youthful face looking like a lotus that was blooming after the rain, dewy and fresh.

She didn’t ask for credit or show off, and there wasn’t even the slightest bit of smugness in her smile. Her humility and modesty made her seem very attractive.

“What a humble girl!” Old Madame Chen stood up with a smile and gazed at Mr. Jiang, who was opposite her.

“Well, I can stand up now thanks to Yun Xi. The so-called experts from all the hospitals tried to persuade me to have an operation. I knew I didn’t need an operation, and now I can stand up thanks to Yun Xi’s foot ma.s.sages and knowledge of Chinese medicine.”

Old man Jiang had come to visit earlier while Madame Chen was bedridden, and he was shocked to see that old Madame Chen really could stand up.
