The old man’s face was full of anger as he watched Luo Qianqian blatantly ignore him.
He had condescended to co to such a place and talked to two ordinary people for so long, yet he was t with such disregard, which would be intolerable for anyone!
"Luo Qianqian." Jimo Shun narrowed his eyes, stood up, and looked at Luo Qianqian. His tone naturally took on a warning note.
He clearly still regarded Luo Qianqian as the little girl who needed the Jimo Family’s protection and assud she was still Jimo Cheng’s fiancée, who would protect the Jimo Family.
The mont Jimo Kong and Jimo Cheng left the Jimo Family, so things had already changed, but so people still could not see it.
Luo Qianqian stood in place and gave a cold sneer, "I had no idea my na could be pronounced so unpleasantly."
Unable to see the situation clearly, did they really think the world revolved around the Jimo Family?
However, He Wenyu was directly taken away by Yue Tingyu, not intending for her to witness this side of Luo Qianqian: "Xiao Yu, I’ll just call you that, okay? Co, Grandma will show you the room."
He Wenyu, seeing Grandma Luo carrying her suitcase, hurriedly took it over and said softly, "Grandma, just show the way; I can carry it."
Yue Tingyu nodded, then led He Wenyu upstairs.
Noticing out of the corner of her eye that the two disappeared at the top of the stairs, Luo Qianqian quickly took a few steps to Old Master Luo’s side: "Grandpa, I’m feeling aggrieved, look how hungry I am, my stomach is all flat. Can grandma make sothing delicious later?"
Old Master Luo, seeing his granddaughter’s natural deanor, did not pay much mind to the person that required his serious attention. He smiled and patted Luo Qianqian’s small hand: "Don’t you know? Your grandma listens to you the most. Your grandpa here is just waiting to enjoy a feast with you."
"Hehe, then shall we wash the dishes afterward?" Luo Qianqian chuckled lightly, looking calm and collected, not at all bothering with Jimo Shun who had stood up.
"Sure." Old Master Luo agreed quite readily.
"By the way, Grandpa, what’s that old man doing at our house?" Luo Qianqian, unfazed by Jimo Shun’s gaze, curiously asked without taking him seriously.
Thanks to Tang Guo, her realm now was far beyond what it was before. In this world, there were hardly a handful of people surpassing the Internal Cultivation Fifth Level, and she had already achieved Foundation Building Great Perfection. All she needed was a guide to seamlessly step into the next stage.
"Hmm, probably wants sothing from the Nine Heavens Pavilion." Old Master Luo looked helpless.
They didn’t have a say in the Nine Heavens Pavilion matters.
Even Qin Nuan and Luo Yanran, stationed here, listened to Luo Qianqian, so finding the right person was crucial.
Ever since the betrothal incident, the Luo Family refused to make any decisions for Luo Qianqian.
Feeling sorry once was already a deep regret, and now that things were back on track, how could they disrupt it again?
"Just buy it, then? It’s not a big deal." Luo Qianqian rolled her eyes.
"Isn’t the Nine Heavens Pavilion under purchase restrictions?" Old Master Luo responded rather casually.
Luo Qianqian looked surprised: "Grandpa, are you joking? Can’t the Jimo Family use their connections to get a quota?"
"They don’t fancy those; they wanted what your grandma and I have." Old Master Luo pursed his lips, as Jimo Shun’s offer earlier had been such that it left him in a daze, but on second thought, that much money was of no use. For family expenses, small amounts ca from wages and pensions, while big ones had Luo Xihan’s Haoran Group. There were also businesses like Nine Heavens Pavilion among several of the kids, and Luo Qianqian’s Heavenly Shield; how could they be bought with money?
Green Spirit?
Luo Qianqian imdiately understood and looked at Jimo Shun mockingly: "Goodbye and don’t co back."
So things she hadn’t brought to the surface precisely to avoid attention, yet soone’s intent focus was unavoidable, so what could she do?
"Luo Qianqian, do you think the organization can protect just you and not your entire family?" Jimo Shun narrowed his eyes, the threat already apparent in his words.
Luo Qianqian gave him a cold look, her lips curling: "Try it, and you’ll find out, won’t you? Nine Heavens Pavilion fears neither the Gongyang Family nor the Jimo Family."
This Nine Heavens Pavilion, distinct from the other Nine Heavens Pavilion, was an organization composed of those like Luo Qianqian, Luo Xiying, Bai Yixian, and Tang Tianyi who didn’t wish to involve their families, plus a few reserve mbers like Qin Nuan.
The outco of Gongyang Chou was well-known to the Jimo Family. Despite their overt and covert struggles for years, the Jimo Family had always been at a disadvantage. Who would have thought that a once formidable Gongyang Family would be left depleted by a young girl?
This was why the Jimo Family sent a senior mber rather than anyone random today.
However, they forgot everything, carrying only the arrogance of the Jimo Family when they ca.
The concept of "one mountain being higher than another" was utterly lost on these proud and arrogant people.
"Fine, you’re good!" Jimo Shun glared at Luo Qianqian for a mont, then swished his sleeves and left.
The familiar Tang suit no longer carried a shred of warmth for Luo Qianqian.
This was why Fang Youyuan’s gift to Jimo Kong wasn’t objected, but if it were the Jimo Family, Luo Qianqian would definitely think twice before deciding.
If they could harm their own family, what would they do to an outsider like her?
If not for so capability, the Nine Heavens Pavilion might already have been undermined by now, wouldn’t it?
Watching him leave, Luo Qianqian stomped her little sandals over to the door, pulled it open again, and slamd it shut.
She turned around and stuck her tongue out at Old Master Luo: "I can slam it myself, unlike when soone else does it; it feels like the door would be displeased."
Old Master Luo shook his head helplessly, his glance at Luo Qianqian filled with warmth.
His granddaughter had grown up...
During dinner, He Wenyu and Yue Tingyu collaborated in the kitchen, making many delicious dishes, much to Yue Tingyu’s delight. She didn’t expect this little girl to have such good cooking skills. Originally, she wanted to pass on her culinary skills to Luo Qianqian, but alas...
Luo Qianqian was indeed a disaster in the kitchen!
"This was made by Xiao Yu," Luo Qianqian said, eating pine nuts and corn, raising her eyebrows at He Wenyu with a smile.
Old Master Luo tasted so but frowned: "How co I can’t tell who made it?"
"Grandpa, you’re so silly! If it’s not made by Grandma, then it must be by Xiao Yu," Luo Qianqian stated earnestly.
Exchanging glances with He Wenyu, both of them narrowed their eyes and laughed.
Knowing Luo Qianqian for so many years, how could He Wenyu not know her taste? She naturally prepared it her own unique way.
Yue Tingyu watched the interaction between the two little girls with a cheerful smile, easily seeing their good relationship.
Seeing how well He Wenyu knew Luo Qianqian’s taste, it seed she often played the role of a cook: "Qhianqhian must often trouble Xiao Yu to cook for her, right?"
Luo Qianqian’s eyes widened in objection: "Grandma, I’m not happy with what you said. I’m just a test subject, so Xiao Yu can hook her future husband with her cooking skills soday!" Her face serious, as if it were a matter of course.
"I don’t know who could share your taste," He Wenyu shrugged helplessly and chuckled.
If there’s truly soone with the sa taste, she’d definitely match them up together, of course, on the condition that... Tang Tianyi isn’t around.
