She slapped the money on the table, her face pale, as she supported Wu Zhiyuan and bolted out of there.
The remaining members of the Xue Family were all shocked as they watched Chiang Xiao, taking a long time to snap back to reality.
Chiang Xiao put the money in her pocket, her face cold, she put down Lingzhi and said to her maternal grandparents, "Maternal grandma and grandpa, let’s go."
"Eh, eh." Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao snapped out of it and hurriedly followed to leave.
Zheng Yucheng and the others didn’t come to their senses until they had left the room.
"Good heavens, this Xiao Chiang, she’s really too formidable!" Xue Ping patted her chest, feeling that the scare she received was not light.
"Chiang Xiao is so amazing." Zheng Ruhua also completely idolized Chiang Xiao now, thinking about how she herself was bullied at school and didn’t dare to speak up, Zheng Ruhua’s expression became somewhat dim.
Chiang Xiao didn’t care what the Xue Family thought about it.
She was in a bad mood now.
Chiang Songhai now also felt that his earlier decision to give Lingzhi to Xue Liujin had been somewhat inconsiderate. He felt the need to explain himself, "Little, I only did it because I saw that Grandpa Xue’s health was truly failing, and I couldn’t just stand by..."
"Grandpa, I don’t blame you," Chiang Xiao sighed, a bit helplessly, "As for this matter..."
Could she say that the person she blamed was Madam Xue?
Being a neighbor to Old Lady Wu for many years, they must surely be aware of her character, couldn’t they think before they speak?
If it was not for the fact that she had already agreed to give Lingzhi to Xue Liujin, would they believe that she really could go back on her word and take back the Lingzhi?
Chiang Songhai also sighed.
After sending them back to their hotel, Chiang Xiao no longer felt like talking to them about that house. She told them to lock the door and rest while she went to find Ruxi Hotel according to the address.
She would not let those people affect her pace of making money and buying a house!
Ruxi Hotel was a bit far from Furong Hotel, but she didn’t skimp on money and went straight there by taxi.
Upon arrival, she saw a four-story building and its large area of land, which seemed to be much larger than Furong Hotel; the lobby was also splendid.
When Chiang Xiao said she was looking for Uncle Lee, the hotel staff instantly became very enthusiastic and led her to a room on the first floor, even knocking on the door for her.
Uncle Lee’s voice came from inside.
"Uncle Li, a comrade with the surname Chiang is looking for you."
"A Chiang?" A rush of footsteps suddenly came from inside the room, and the door was flung open with force. Uncle Lee, seeing Chiang Xiao, burst out laughing, "Xiao Chiang! You’ve finally come! I was waiting so anxiously for you!"
Uncle Lee, don’t you think those words are a bit awkward?
The door opposite opened, and He Jin popped out, "Hehehe! Look who’s here! The genius young Painter Xiao Chiang who’s been causing a sensation across the whole province’s art circles! Come, let me have a look, are you shining with light now?"
Why does she always feel that He Jin’s exuberant personality doesn’t match his handsome appearance?
"Uncle Lee, Mr. He, did you call for me for some matter?"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Uncle Lee invited her into the room, and He Jin followed as well.
As soon as Chiang Xiao entered the room, she realized that it must have been specially prepared for Uncle Lee himself, as it was quite large and equipped with a sofa, a desk, and a rocking chair.
On the desk lay a roll of drawing paper.
"Xiao Chiang, it’s not that I’m shameless, but could you draw another Welcoming Pine for me?" Uncle Lee pointed at the roll of drawing paper and said, "This time, I’ve prepared the drawing paper for you."
