Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Xue Liu and Li Dan were both reputable masters in painting and calligraphy circles in Beijing. However, Li Dan was older and could be considered an elder. The two of them only had a little contact daily.
Xue Liu didn’t know why Li Jin had done this, but the result had indeed made Xue Liu lose face.
Who did not know she attached great importance to Jiang Xue so much?
On several formal occasions, Xue Liu bluntly said she was proud of Jiang Xue, who also had a gentle and humble personality. However, Jiang Xue behaved like a lunatic yesterday, and she was so ashamed of Jiang Xue’s behavior.
Xue Liu’s eyes were burning with anger. She suddenly stood up and growled,
“I’m going to ask Li Dan why his granddaughter to drug you.”
Jiang Xue immediately pulled Xue Liu back and said in an injured tone, “Master, I just asked the lawyer. This surveillance video alone can’t directly prove that Li Jin and her cousin drugged and hypnotized me. At most, it would prove that I was in the dressing room with them.”
When Xue Liu heard Jiang Xue’s words, she became even angrier. “Are we going to let them bully us like this? I can’t tolerate that. Take the things and come with me to the Li family to ask them.”
Jiang Xue quickly pulled Xue Liu back and wiped the tears on her face, revealing a touched expression. “Master, I know you want to be in all fairness to me. But I don’t hope you will be criticized for protecting me indiscriminately because we don’t have enough evidence. Today, I brought these here to let you know I did not intend to behave yesterday. If you believe in me, I don’t care about other people’s misunderstandings.”
Xue Liu looked at Jiang Xue, who had clearly suffered a great grievance but was still thinking for her, and she felt heartache. She stroked Jiang Xues head and said distressedly, “Why are you so stupid? I do believe you. Stop crying, good girl.”
Jiang Xue smiled and said pout prettily at Xue Liu, “If I can follow Master for the rest of my life, it doesn’t matter if I’m a little stupid.”
Xue Liu’s other students had always been cautious towards Xue Liu. None of them were like Jiang Xue, who was sweet and considerate and would even pout prettily to please her. Xue Liu, who had never had a child, and Jiang Xue was like a present sent by God to her in the remaining years.
Xue Liu was angry at Jiang Xue’s behavior yesterday. But she was also planning for Jiang Xue’s future since Jiang Xue would have a career in the entertainment industry. And they need to solve the problem at once. Otherwise, if it broke out later, it would ruin her career.
Xue Liu sighed, rubbed Jiang Xue’s hair, and said gently, “Let’s go. I’ll bring you to meet Feng Cheng. We need to settle the details of the comic, the Great Success. I’ll explain to them as well. The literati in these circles valued integrity. If you didn’t prove yourself, you would be ostracized.”
Jiang Xue nodded obediently, hugged Xue Liu’s arm, and said sweetly, “You are the best master in the world!”
Xue Liu looked at Jiang Xue’s respectful attitude and felt happy again.
Jiang Xue’s behavior at Shen Qian’s banquet became a gossip in the circle. Everyone was guessing Shen Xi’s identity, who had snatched Shen Qian from
Jiang Xue.
Especially when they found out that the Shen family and Lu family were
fighting to give things to Shen Xi at the banquet yesterday and heard that Shen Xi was just a peasant girl from a small town, their interest in Shen Xi became even more.
Shen Xi received the favor of the Shen and Lu Families, and everyone thought that whether the Shen and Lu families were finding granddaughters-in-law for their grandchildren. After all, whether it was the Shen family’s grandson Zheng Huai or the Lu family’s adopted grandson Lin Lu, they had both reached the age of marriage.
Moreover, everyone heard that Shen Xi was beautiful and unique and also was an intelligent student. She came to Beijing to attend the national chemistry competition training. If she won three gold medals, she would be a top-notch talent in Beijing and could enter any university in Beijing.
Then, many people came to Stanford University to see Shen Xi.
Some were just curious about what Shen Xi looked like. After all, Shen Xi received the Shen and Lu families’ favor.
Others wanted to see how this lousy girl dealt with the situation, who had two dates in one day, already had a boyfriend, and still enticed Guan Lei. After all, those were the Shen, Lu, and Guan Families. They were all top-notch wealthy families.
And another batch of people wanted to befriend her. If Shen Xi became the granddaughter-in-law of the Shen family or the Lu family in the future, they would get some benefit from Shen Xi..
