Chapter 96: 96, This is the sentence we need (Update 2)_1
Old Master An looked at him suspiciously, then turned to Jian Qing, “How come I haven’t heard you mention before, you also know Yixuan and them?”
“Mmm.” Jian Qing nodded.
Old Master An suddenly remembered something and asked tentatively, “Are you also familiar with that Jingwu kid?”
Uncle Qiu covered his eyes in embarrassment. My lord, one minute it was Quan Er who was addressed as Mingxuan, and the next minute when it came to Lord Jing, he was referred to as that kid with his grandfather right there.
Jian Qing twitched the corner of her mouth imperceptibly and nodded again.
With each nod of her head, Old Master An began to feel increasingly that something was not right. He could understand her being familiar with Mingxuan and the others, but it was strange that she was also familiar with that icy kid Jingwu.
That kid he watched grow up, he was so cold, how could he possibly become so easily acquainted with someone, let alone a woman.
That was awfully strange.
“Uncle An, why do I feel that you are quite opinionated about my Jingwu?” Master Quan lightly coughed, as if casually asking.
Old Master An snorted, “Your Jingwu is too cold and hard to get along with, I’m afraid he might bully my dear Qing girl.”
The smile froze on Master Quan’s face, “…”
His Jingwu bullying Jian Qing?
What a joke.
Helplessness flashed in Jian Qing’s eyes, as she managed to hold back her laughter.
“No, he’s quite nice.”
At her words, both Old Master An and Master Quan looked at her simultaneously with strange expressions.
“What did you say?” On this matter, the two elders were surprisingly in sync.
Jian Qing’s face remained calm, “He’s quite nice.”
After she spoke, Master Quan laughed, and Old Master An became gloomy.
Remembering the rumors he had recently heard, Old Master An hurriedly said, “Dear Qing, you don’t have a thing for that rotten kid, do you? Let me tell you, he’s already fallen for someone and has even declared it publicly. Don’t set your heart on him.”
Well, that kid had gone straight from being ‘that kid’ to ‘that rotten kid’.
Jian Qing met Old Master An’s eyes, noticed his genuine concern for her, and gave a smile, “Really?”
“Of course, that rotten kid is not worth it at all, I will introduce you to someone better later.” Old Master An thought that Jian Qing wasn’t planning on giving up and hurriedly tried to persuade her.
He knew Jingwu was outstanding in every regard, but that didn’t negate the fact that he had someone he fancied now. He couldn’t let Qing throw herself into this and end up heartbroken.
At the side, Master Quan was speechless listening to his words.
When did his Jingwu become so detestable?
Jian Qing laughed lightly, changing the topic, “There is something I would like to discuss with you.”
Old Master An, who was worrying about how to dissuade Jian Qing from Jingwu, was startled by her words.
“What is it?”
Jian Qing said, “I don’t really like the interior design of the room on the fourth floor, so…”
Old Master An thought she was using this as an excuse to leave the mansion and rushed to interrupt her, “If you don’t like the design, then whatever style you prefer, I’ll have it changed for you.”
“So I can change anything I want?” Jian Qing raised her eyebrows.
“Of course, as long as you are willing to stay here.” Old Master An said.
Uncle Qiu then stepped forward, “Miss Qing, whatever style you like, I will immediately have someone come over and make the changes.”
Jian Qing shook her head, looked at Old Master An, and said, “I also do not like the things in the room. Can they be thrown away?”
Without hesitation, Old Master An said, “Of course.”
That’s exactly what she wanted to hear.
With a light curl of her red lips, Jian Qing said, “Thank you.” 𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙥𝒖𝒃.𝒄𝒐𝒎
Seeing her not mentioning leaving anymore, Old Master An’s heart finally settled down. Master Quan then redirected the conversation to lighten the mood, “Qing dear girl, I heard from Uncle An that your tea-making skills are quite good, am I fortunate enough to try it?”
Right as Jian Qing was about to agree, her phone suddenly vibrated.
“Sorry, I have to take a call.”
Jian Qing picked up her mobile and walked to one side to answer.
“Jian, we’ve found the person and they’re already outside the An Family mansion.” Khan’s voice sounded from the mobile phone.
