And now, everyone had already expressed their fondness for Li Xingwan.
"My Xingwan is just awesome! She actually won over so many people’s affection."
"Even Zheng, the Best Actor, and Bai, the Best Actor, both fell for her!"
"It’s just charisma."
At this moment, Qi Yue came down from upstairs. When she saw Li Xingwan downstairs, she froze. Then, her eyes darted toward Li Xingwan’s room with a hint of panic.
Li Xingwan caught this scene and sensed something was amiss. She immediately looked over as well.
Just then, a scream and the sound of someone falling came from inside.
It seemed to be the voice of Madam La from the La Family.
This made everyone’s hearts tighten, and they immediately ran upstairs.
As everyone pushed the door and entered, they saw the pitiable sight of Madam La sprawled on the floor.
They tried to help her up.
"I... I think I’ve fallen." Madam La was holding her backside, reluctant to get up from the floor, her face pale with pain. "It hurts, hurts, hurts."
"What are you doing in my room?" Li Xingwan asked her while checking her back.
"Didn’t I forget to give you something last night?" Luckily, Madam La had a good grip; otherwise, the bracelet in her hand might have broken. "This is a family heirloom from the La Family, for you."
"What? A family heirloom?"
Everyone was somewhat startled.
They hadn’t expected Madam La to give Li Xingwan something so valuable.
It was said that because the La Family was a descendant of the Manqing dynasty, most of their heirlooms were of collectible level.
Even a casual item was not to be underestimated.
"Looks like Madam La is serious."
"She really values Li Xingwan."
"Maybe Xingwan should just accept her, huh?"
How could that be considered acceptance?
"For me?" Li Xingwan also looked at Madam La.
"Yes, for you." Madam La stuffed the bracelet into Li Xingwan’s hand. "The most precious things should of course go to those who are worthy of them."
The most precious things should of course go to those who are worthy of them!!!
This statement no doubt elevated Li Xingwan’s status very high.
"Besides, you are the one I’m about to take as my apprentice, so how could I not give you a gift?"
This scene was enough to drive people crazy with jealousy.
Qi Yue gritted her teeth. She had been there for so many days, buttering up Madam La in secret, hoping to see if there was anything nice in her possession to give her.
Yet she hadn’t received anything, whereas Li Xingwan, who arrived only three days ago, had.
Understanding her intention, Li Xingwan didn’t stand on ceremony and accepted it. "How did you fall?"
"You’re asking me?" Upon mentioning this, Madam La suddenly became very angry. "What’s with putting that scary stuff in the room? And how could there be foam on the floor? Did you take a bubble bath all night and it didn’t dry?"
Li Xingwan had left after her bath last night, but there shouldn’t have been any foam on the floor.
She stood up and glanced elsewhere. Indeed, she saw where Madam La had slipped.
"There shouldn’t have been any foam last night."
"There shouldn’t have been any foam, yet should it have run into the living room?" Madam La, enduring the pain, stood up from the floor. "Look at this mark from where I slipped, such a big puddle of it!"
Looking at it, it did seem like a dreadful long slide. If it had been more serious, she could have broken an arm or a leg.
