When Zhao Ya arrived, the Xia Family was montarily stirred.
Xia Feiying personally greeted him at the door and led Zhao Ya inside.
Although the Xia Family resided in the East City, their estate was quite substantial, and they had nurous servants.
Along the way, many people secretly observed Zhao Ya.
So maidservants even hid in the distance, whispering among themselves.
Though they thought they were speaking quietly enough, they couldn’t escape Zhao Ya’s ear power.
"Is this the young man who has captured Miss Hongyu’s heart? He looks quite spirited."
"What good is looking spirited if it doesn’t bring any al to the table? He’s just soone from a small place, probably won’t achieve much."
"Zhao Ya, why does this na sound sowhat familiar?"
"Co on, whose na doesn’t sound familiar to you? I bet every handso young man you see looks and sounds familiar to you!"
"Dare to mock ? Watch not rip your mouth, you cheeky girl."
These comnts floated into his ears, but Zhao Ya pretended not to hear them.
In fact, Zhao Ya had anticipated this kind of situation.
After all, carrying gifts to the ho of an unmarried woman could easily lead to misunderstandings.
But Zhao Ya still ca, and he ca with great composure.
After all, he promised Xia Hongyu, and with Xia Feiying as the elder, visiting seed quite normal.
As for what others said or thought...
Zhao Ya couldn’t be bothered.
Soon, under Xia Feiying’s guidance, he entered the main room.
The room was filled with people, and sitting in the center was an elderly woman, richly dressed, with a kind and pleasant appearance.
Behind her stood two won, one of whom was Xia Hongyu.
The other was a girl of fifteen or sixteen, also charming and lovely, who stood out near Xia Hongyu.
The mont Zhao Ya entered, Xia Chunlan, sitting on a chair, began to scrutinize him closely.
Initially, there was a bit of criticism, but as she looked, Xia Chunlan’s expression grew softer, and an appreciative look appeared in her eyes.
"Is this Zhao Ya, the Young Hero Zhao?" Xia Chunlan asked.
Zhao Ya cupped his hands, "Zhao Ya, I’ve t the elderly lady."
Xia Chunlan bead with a smile, "Yes, good, truly handso and talented."
Seeing Xia Chunlan almost join the "enemy" side, Xia Yuping, standing behind, grew a bit anxious.
Indeed.
This Zhao Ya was quite handso, even more than she had imagined.
Especially with that sharpness in his eyes, it was captivating.
No wonder her cousin couldn’t stop thinking about him.
But what good is just looking handso, can’t surrender so quickly.
So she quietly nudged her grandmother.
Only then did Xia Chunlan realize, quickly regaining her composure.
"Yes, I heard you escorted our Hongyu ho last night, thank you for the trouble."
"It was a re lift of the hand, besides Miss Hongyu and I are friends, it’s no big deal."
As he spoke, Zhao Ya gave a slight smile towards Xia Hongyu, who had been watching him without moving her gaze.
Since Zhao Ya entered, Xia Hongyu’s gaze hadn’t left him, so upon seeing Zhao Ya’s smile, her face flushed instantly, she lowered her head, habitually fiddling with the corner of her clothes.
Seeing this scene, Xia Yuping felt a bit dissatisfied.
Her cousin, truly, blushing so easily.
At this mont, she noticed the little maid she had sent was back, her eyes lit up.
"How about it?" she asked softly.
The little maid nodded, panting slightly.
"Yes, she’s already here."
As soon as the words fell, voices from outside were heard.
"Greetings Miss Yun!"
"Greetings Third Miss Yun!"
"Dispense with the formalities!"
With a clear female voice, a girl about fifteen or sixteen walked into the room.
This girl was dressed elegantly, with an extraordinary appearance.
Her arrival stirred up a commotion in the room.
Even Mrs. Xia, sitting in the chair, was moved.
"What brings Miss Yun here today?"
Miss Yun smiled and cupped her hands, "Elderly lady, I wanted to see you, so I ca over."
Then she turned towards Xia Yuping, "Why is your ho so lively today?"
This question was actually rhetorical.
As before coming, Xia Yuping’s little maid had already inford her.
Saying there was a young man from outside coming to "marry" her cousin, and she wanted to see if it was a fraud.
Such matters greatly interested Yun Jin.
For as the legitimate daughter of the Yun Family, she loved exposing those who wandered around under various pretenses.
Xia Yuping discreetly pointed at Zhao Ya not far away, indicating it was him.
In fact, Yun Jin had already noticed him.
No way around it, Zhao Ya simply stood there, exuding an undeniable presence.
She first sized up Zhao Ya, her eyes showing a hint of surprise.
Judging by his upright aura, she initially thought he was a Martial Artist, but upon closer inspection, she realized Zhao Ya had no Qi Blood fluctuations at all, surprisingly just an ordinary person.
"What is your na?"
At first, Xia Yuping rely called her over, without ntioning this young man’s na.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Ya looked at her and suddenly smiled.
"Are you from the Yun Family?"
When Yun Jin entered earlier, the servants addressed her as Miss Yun.
While there should be more than one Yun Family in Yan Capital City, the one the Xia Family held high regard for would likely be the Yun Family.
"That’s right, I am Yun Jin of the second branch of the Yun Family, and who might you be?"
When she ntioned her family background, Yun Jin’s face was full of pride.
