Chapter 1570 'The Wen Clan’s Intrusion 1 ”

Ling Kaiyuan had already gotten someone to value this jade prior to the banquet tonight. Its value was immeasurable according to the inspector.

“Grandpa,” the flirt had just come through the entrance when he saw his old grandfather pulling out the item. Immediately, he couldn’t help but chuckle at this scene: “I don’t think I’ve said it before, but this jade was given to me by Cousin here. You’re technically returning it to its original owner there Grandpa.”

Sure enough, the old general’s face froze into an iceberg level of awkwardness. He’s embarrassed at his own mistake.

“This…” retracting that old hand, “I’m sorry Yan Yan, I didn’t know it was from you originally…. I’ll look for something else.”

“There’s no need,” Bai Yan shakes her head, “it’s good enough that I know you have the heart Grandpa Kaiyuan. I’m not short on anything.”

Ling Lang was the first to complain about that comment. Well, that’s obvious. Cousin, you have so much stuff that it’s making me feel poor you know? The fact that you can give Xiachen Dan pills as snack is enough to make many go crazy!

“But if you do want to give me something then….” Bai Yan pauses to organize her own words, “when I eventually leave this place, do look after Yi Yi for me. I hope Ling Lang cousin here could do that. This way my sister won’t feel so lonely without me by her side.”

Bai Yi Yi had also come in at this point when this conversation started. Immediately, the lass’s eyes got all teary red because she knew what it meant. Truly, the poor girl didn’t want to think about the future and has been avoiding subject. After all, Yi Yi only had Bai Yan left as a family, she has no one else.

“Don’t worry Bai Yan, as your cousin, I naturally have the duty to look after your foster sister. I will take good care of her.” Ling Lang pats his own chest to convey confidence.

Bai Yan didn’t respond right away, instead she gets all meaningful in her smile while facing the flirt: “Then how come she still suffered those grievances while I was away during this period?”

Ling Lang’s voice stalled over that remark. His handsome face showing embarrassment and shame.

Over the past ten years, their Ling household had on several occasion offered to help Bai Yi Yi. However, the lass would always reject the kind offer. One for being not wanting to drag the Ling family down with herself for fear of those enemies returning; secondly, she also wanted to keep her self esteem and be able to stand on equal footing with Ling Lang. Anyone with a sharp eye could tell Bai Yi Yi had the hots for the flirt.

“Sister Bai Yan, you’ve misunderstood them.” Hurrying over with a panic face, Bai Yi Yi quickly steps in to defend her crush, “They’ve helped me already. I didn’t want to accept it but I know for a fact that they’ve secretly did a lot for me in the background…”

While this family was having their own little fun conversation in the banquet hall, the rest of the attendees weren’t acting so calm anymore. The gaze coming off of these guests were burning with desire and were locked onto Bai Yan like hawks meeting a treasure box.

“Miss Bai Yan, do you have more jade of such excellent quality? I’m willing to pay your asking price if you do.”
