First Miss Badass
Chapter 18
After the family left, Old Master Chi felt things had become more peaceful.
“How was the health of your godfather recently?” There was no one else here, so Old Master Chi could talk to Chi Jiao about the topic they wanted to talk about without worrying.
“The body of the god grandpa is very strong. He said that he would go to Shang Jing in a month. When he passes through White City, he will come visit you,” Chi Jiao replied, obediently and respectfully.
Old Master Chi's eyes twinkled. “Hmph, rarely does the old man still remember me.”
“God grandfather always thinks of you,” Chi Jiao said with a smile. Under the warm light, the girl's pretty cheeks were wrinkled with sweet dimples. She looks so beautiful and harmless.
Many gazes were on him.
“Is that the Second Miss of the Chi family?”
“I think so. He came with the eldest son of the Chi family before. She was supposed to be the Second Miss of the Chi.” family
“Didn't they say that she grew up in the mountains? She looks quite fresh and beautiful.”
“Haish, what's the point of looking beautiful? With Chi Yan around, he was destined to be suppressed. The young master of the Lan family would not fall in love with her. How could he still want to marry her when she was just a pretty face? As long as his brain was not damaged, he would definitely choose Chi Yan.”
“…”
The whispers around them entered Chi Jiao's ears.
However, he pretended not to hear them and remained calm.
Old Master Chi was old and his hearing was not as good as Chi Jiao, so he did not hear the discussion.
“Jiaojiao, when the Lan family arrives later, Grandfather will take you to greet the child of the Lan.” family Grandfather Chi said with a smile, Your godfather should have told you that you are engaged to the young master of the Lan family, Lan Yunhan. You haven't seen the kid, have you?”
The smile on Chi Jiao's lips stiffened as she recalled her godfather's expression when she mentioned Lan Yunhan.
“The child of the Lan family is not worthy of our Jiaojiao. Let him go somewhere else.”
However, seeing Old Master Chi shining and excited, Chi Jiao did not want to disturb his good mood. Therefore, he did not say much in return.
“Oh, correct. How did Zhu Limin treat you?” Old Master Chi suddenly straightened his expression.
“Not bad,” Chi Jiao said casually, not wanting Old Master Chi to worry about him over such things.
“It's good. If he dares to treat you badly, just tell me. I won't let go!” Old Master Chi said seriously.
Warmth flowed in Chi Jiao's heart as she smiled and nodded.
“Grandfather, do not go to places with a lot of water in the future.” Chi Jiao changed the subject suddenly. He recalled that in his previous life, his grandfather had somehow fallen into a waterhole and nearly lost his life.
Old Master Chi was stunned as he looked at Chi Jiao in bewilderment.
“I asked my god grandmother to read your luck earlier. He said that you and the water were opposite each other recently, so don't go to places with a lot of water,” Chi Jiao said as she blinked her sparkling eyes and looked at Old Master Chi.
As he said that, he heard a grunt. Someone really laughed out loud.
“Sister, did you hear what he said? I can't believe there are actually people in this world who believe in psychic mediums.”
Chi Jiao looked up indifferently and saw a young man and woman walking together.
The man looked to be in his early twenties. He was wearing a well-designed black suit, which accentuated his incredible aura. Her good looks are one in a million because she has a peach blossom face that easily catches the attention of women.
The young lady standing beside the man looked somewhat similar to him. At first glance, it was clear that they were siblings.
A dark glint flashed across Chi Jiao's eyes.
It was Lan Yunhan.
