He followed Jiang Yuqing to a three-story villa.
Jiang Yuqing opened the door and saw a young man rushing out.
The young man nodded at Jiang Yuqing first, then turned to look at Liu Xiaoning and beamed with joy.
He was extremely excited.
But soon, his smile disappeared and his expression became extremely gloomy.
"Xiaoning, who is he?"
The young man stared at Lin Xi, then turned to Liu Xiaoning and asked coldly.
"Can't you tell?"
Liu Xiaoning leaned against Lin Xi's shoulder, her face full of happiness.
"His name is Lin Xi, my neighbor, childhood friend, best friend and boyfriend.”
Upon hearing Liu Xiaoning's introduction, Lin Xi's expression remained the same as if it was only natural.
The two of them had been together for more than ten years. Liu Xiaoning was also very sweet and had been one of the school belles since she was young. It was obvious that they had covered for each other countless times.
They were definitely familiar with the place and had a tacit understanding.
Jiang Zhifeng's expression changed drastically." Why didn't Yuqing say that you have a boyfriend?”
"Lin Xi and Xiaoning were childhood sweethearts and grew up together. I just found out about it!”
Jiang Yuqing said calmly.
"Xiaoning, Lin Xi, let's go in!”
"Stop right there."
Seeing this, Jiang Zhifeng suddenly stood in front of Lin Xi.
"It's Grandfather's birthday, and all the people who come are the descendants of the Tang family and the younger generations. Who are you? What qualifications do you have to participate?"
Jiang Yuqing retorted," Jiang Zhifeng, grandfather has already agreed to invite Lin Xi. Besides, this is my home. I can invite whoever I want. I don't need to report to you.”
Hearing this, Jiang Zhifeng looked deeply at Lin Xi and laughed in anger.
"Brat, I hope you don't regret it.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he flicked his sleeves and left.
"Yuqing, what's up with this guy?”
Lin Xi asked in confusion.
If he hadn't come over as a guest and dared to have designs on Liu Xiaoning, he would definitely have fallen out with her.
"He's my second uncle's son, Jiang Zhifeng. He's an ignorant and incompetent fellow.”
Jiang Yuqing smiled bitterly.
"Last year, Xiaoning stayed at my house for a few days during the winter vacation. Then, he went crazy and insisted on pursuing Xiaoning. It's a pity that my brother hasn't been home for half a year. Otherwise, if my brother warned him once, I'm sure he wouldn't dare to do it again.”
Lin Xi pursed her lips." There's no need for your brother to step in. I'll naturally warn him the next time we meet."”
"Grandfather is at home. He won't dare to do anything. Let's go in first.”
After Jiang Yuqing finished speaking, she went in first.
Lin Xi and Liu Xiaoning followed closely behind.
In the huge living room, three hale and hearty old men sat upright.
Two middle-aged men accompanied him.
In other parts of the villa, there were many young men and women gathered in twos and threes.
Jiang Zhifeng was whispering to a few young men.
They looked at Lin Xi from time to time, and a strange glint flashed across their eyes.
"Grandfather, Xiaoning and Lin Xi are here.”
Jiang Yuqing introduced them as they entered the living room.
"Welcome, my two little friends.”
The old man in the middle sized up Lin Xi and Liu Xiaoning with a smile on his face.
"Grandpa, my gift for you has arrived.”
Then, Jiang Yuqing placed the gift box on the mahogany coffee table with a mysterious expression.
"What gift is so mysterious?"
Seeing this, Jiang Yuchuan chuckled and said,""Let's make it clear in advance. If it's too expensive, I don't want it.”
"You have quite a lot of problems. Old Man Jiang disliked Yu Qing, but Grandpa Tang didn't.”
"Exactly. The gift that our Yuqing chose definitely won't be a problem.”
Jiang Yuqing's mysterious look made the elders laugh and cry, and they began to tease her.
After all, with their age and background, what good things had they not seen?
Besides, what they valued was not the gift itself, but the filial piety of the younger generation.
Jiang Yuqing wasn't embarrassed at all.
She secretly winked at Lin Xi and a mischievous smile appeared on her face.
He turned off the lights in the living room, leaving only the lights in the foyer.
With a swoosh, he removed the lid.
Inside the gift box was a jade flower pot the size of a teacup.
In the flower pot was a blooming Clivia.
Orange petals, yellow stamen, and two green leaves.
Under the dim light, one could even see the water droplets on the petals and the patterns on the leaves.
"Clivia? Hehe, Yuqing understands me the best."
Jiang Yuchuan stroked his beard, feeling gratified.
"Among the Four Gentlemen of Flowers, plum, orchid, bamboo, and chrysanthemum are my favorite orchids. It's just that this is the first time I've seen this kind of orchid. Yuqing, you must have put in a lot of effort to find this new species, right?”
"Of course. It was the only one in the world, and it was very difficult to find!”
Jiang Yuqing said seriously.
Lin Xi smiled and didn't expose him immediately.
This time, he had almost displayed his talent to the extreme, and the effect was naturally extremely shocking.
Of course, he did not use any spirit augmentation skills.
"The only one in the world?"
Jiang Yuchuan was so excited that his beard was sticking up in disbelief.
Mr. Tang and the others looked at each other, then at Jiang Yuqing.
"Yuqing, are you serious?”
If this was really the only one in the world, it would be useless no matter how much money one had. It was impossible to buy it.
Jiang Yuqing burst into laughter when she saw that everyone was stunned.
"Grandpa, Grandpa Tang, haven't you noticed that this is actually a jade statue?”
"What jade carving?"
Jiang Yuchuan was stunned and didn't understand.
She came back to her senses and hurriedly went to the orchid.
As he carefully examined it, his mouth opened wide and his eyes widened.
"Unbelievable, unbelievable."
"Old Tang, Old Zhao, take a look. This is actually a Clivia carved from jade.”
Hearing Jiang Yuchuan's greeting, the two old men quickly came forward.
"Hiss! Old Zhao, have you seen this kind of jade orchid before?”
"No, I haven't. What about you?"
"Not really. It was so lifelike, so real and so fake. Who knew which master had created it?”
