Chapter 1687: Chapter 1687: That’s Asking for Trouble! Chapter 1687: Chapter 1687: That’s Asking for Trouble! Among all those present in the Jukufeng Hall, it was Luo Mianyi and her son who felt the most awkward, but what could they do? They simply had to sit there and return to their seats.
“Is this the eldest young master of the Yue Clan? He certainly is handso and possesses an extraordinary deanor.”
“I heard that the head of the Yue Family found him in the wastelands. What sort of place is that, to raise the eldest young master so spiritedly? This clearly shows that his talents must be exceptional.”
In the Jukufeng Hall, those who were not from the Yue Clan secretly observed Lin Chushui and began to whisper amongst themselves.
Luo Mianyi’s eyes nearly glued themselves onto Lin Chushui. This youngster had just arrived at the Yue Clan and already attracted so much attention to himself.
If he were to successfully complete the blood sacrifice this ti, what then?
No, she had to think of a way to disrupt this blood sacrifice. She couldn’t let Lin Chushui’s fa overshadow that of her two sons.
“Mother, you’re looking at like that, do you have sothing to say to ?”
Suddenly, she heard Lin Chushui’s voice close to her ear, startling her back to her senses.
“This…”
What could she possibly have to say to Lin Chushui?
“I was just looking at the clothes you’re wearing. They’re quite nice. Did the steward arrange them for you?”
She spoke just to make conversation.
“No.”
Lin Chushui shook his head.
“That steward did not prepare clothes for . He even ntioned… never mind, it’s better left unsaid for now.”
Rembering that it was his grandmother who had the steward prepare for him, he decided not to ntion the things better left unsaid. However, speaking of the clothing, his eyes finally showed a hint of warmth.
“Sister Sangsang prepared these for .”
He said.
Upon hearing this, Luo Mianyi’s face soured instantly.
It was Lin Caisang again. What was so good about Lin Caisang, making Lin Chushui incessantly call her ‘Mother’, yet when ntioning Lin Caisang, he seed so pleased!
She gritted her teeth and took a deep breath.
…
Soon, the banquet was nearly over, and with Old Madam Luo’s introduction, Lin Chushui had t quite a few people.
Yue Chong’s face had never been so embarrassed.
His own son was being led around the Jukufeng Hall by his mother-in-law. What was this all about?
“Upset?”
Old Madam Yue chuckled as she looked at her son and asked in a low voice.
“Mother…”
Yue Chong took a deep breath, about to say sothing, but almost launched his wine cup in fury at his mother’s next remark.
“You brought it upon yourself!”
Old Madam Yue told her son.
How had he brought this upon himself? Yue Chong couldn’t understand. Wasn’t it clear that his son wasn’t close to him? Didn’t you see that after entering the hall, his son hadn’t even spoken a word to him?
“Brother Chong, it must be about ti to proceed with the blood sacrifice ritual, right?”
Luo Mianyi reminded Yue Chong at her side.
She believed that Lin Chushui had no talents whatsoever, so how could she not take advantage of this perfect opportunity to embarrass him?
“Right, there’s still the blood sacrifice…”
“We will proceed once everyone has left. Are you in a rush?” Old Madam Yue asked coldly to Yue Chong and his wife.
“Um.”
Yue Chong was at a loss for words in reply to his mother.
He was in a rush, but did he dare to show his eagerness for others to know his son had no talent for spirit cultivation? Better to wait until everyone had left to begin the blood sacrifice ritual.
“Mother is right, let’s wait a little longer. There’s ti.”
