Chapter 140 - Reminds Me Of Master Xiaos face (1/2)
Xiao Shen jerked in panic and swallowed the next word that was at the tip of her tongue. She glared viciously at Yue Wan: 'It all this b*tch fault.'
Those gossiping fellows had their mouth closed in an instant.
Elder Xiao moved near the gauze and ċȧrėssed it slowly...
The entire weaving work was increasingly smooth and the tiniest of details were embroidered perfectly.
When Elder Xiao touched the embroidery, it felt like silk satin.
”Incredible!!” Elder Xiao's loud shrill voice burst out in astonishment.
”Little Wan! Where did you find it?” Xiao Ran's hushed voice sounded near Yue Wan and she grasped her hand affectionately.
Being called out so affectionately by Xiao Ran made Yue Wan stagger for a second. However, she quickly composed herself and calmly replied: ”I found it accidentally.”
With a raised and curved brow, Elder Xiao, who was standing before Yue Wan, asked in a firm tone: ”You know what this is!”
In a delicate voice, like silver bells, Yue Wan replied: ”Yes. It's the lost treasure of the Xiao family, or to be more precise, this was embroidered by one of your ancestors.”
Elder Xiao was flabbergasted by the young woman's reply. How could a mere sixteen-year girl know this secret?
With a proud glint in his eyes, Yue Xiang patted his sister's head and looked at the others with cold eyes. ”This my sister, Yue Wan, the princess of our Yue family.”
Xiao Ran pinched Yue Wan's tender cheek which was soft and fluffy.
Yue Wan gave a dimpled smile and said without formality: ”Also, the tapestry reminds me of Master Xiao's face.”
Elder Xiao could not help but to make a strange sound in his throat before bursting out, coughing violently! He coughed so hard that his entire body shook and his face turned red as he nearly fainted.
This brat mocking me that my face looks withered. Damn it!
Xiao Ran sweatdropped, Little Wan was getting even with her grandpa.
Elder Xiao's heart pinned with numerous questions but before he could inquire, Su Dingfeng stood before him with questions regarding the painting. The Xiao family members quickly started to praise and appreciate it so Elder Xiao missed his opportunity to interrogate Yue Wan any more.
--------With Xiao Shen-------
Xiao Shen flew into a jealous rage as she muttered: ”This must be a fake one! She must be tricking us.”
Jing Zhe grabbed her mother's elbow and whispered: ”Mom, we've already created enough problems to make grandpa detest us. Please stop!!”
Jing Zhe knew that her mother sometimes acts proud and arrogant with no brain.
Xiao Shen glared at Xiao Ran coldly and gritted her teeth, 'Need to eliminate her, soon.'
And then she looked at Yue Wan with jealousy and hatred in her eyes: ”Find a way to get acquaintance with that little b*tch. She might come in handy. As for her brother, I have a plan.”
Thinking about her man, Jing Zhe blushed. She bit her teeth and looked toward Yue Xiang: ”Mom! He is a good person.”
Seeing her daughter's bashfulness, Xiao Shen smiled and said: ”Let go home for now.”
