However...
Such an adorable little doll had raised her snow-white chin and stared arrogantly at the purple-eyed boy who was sitting on the chair.
Her expression made it seem as if Xiao Zixie was not a living person but a toy that she had set her eyes on.
"It's the Second Lady of the Xia family."
"The Second Lady of the Xia family is different from Xia Chuxue. Xia Chuxue is kind and graceful while the Second Lady is arrogant and willful. However, she's still a child so it's normal for her to be a little willful. It's just that these two are in for it."
"I wonder whose son this purple-robed little boy is. He's quite pretty but regardless of his status, he can't compare to the Xia family which is protected by Supreme Jin."
The crowd in the teahouse shook their heads and sighed at the sight. However, no one had the intention to speak up for Gu Ruoyun and the others.
The Second Lady of the Xia family?
Gu Ruoyun raised her brow. If I remember correctly, the Second Lady of the Xia family should be Xia Chuxue!
However, based on the current situation, her name has been erased from the Xia family ever since her death! Now, Xia Chuxue has become the Eldest Lady of the Xia family. As for this little girl, if my guess is correct, she should be Xia Chuxue's biological sister.
"This..." Lu Chen glanced at Xia Chuling with some difficulty. However, his grim eyes could not conceal the doting look in them. He fell into deep thought for a long time before he turned towards the woman in green who had been sitting quietly by the tea table and said, "Miss, may I discuss something with you?"
Gu Ruoyun put down the teacup in her hand and replied indifferently, "What is it?"
"I would like your brother to keep my sister company for a few days. What do you think, Miss?"
Lu Chen curled the corners of his lips and his grave and stern features displayed what he thought was a very gentle smile. To him, no woman could resist his smile!
Hearing this, the woman in green finally raised her head.
At that moment, Lu Chen felt as if his heart had been struck fiercely.
He never knew that someone's eyes could be so similar to hers. They were both clear, cold and reserved, filled with an indifferent indifference towards the world.
Lu Chen's expression changed and he could not help but take two steps back.
Xia Ruoyun is dead!
Even if someone else looks like her, it can't be her!
Since that's the case, what do I have to fear?
Lu Chen took a deep breath at the thought of this and calmed his emotions. He then smiled as he waited for Gu Ruoyun's reply.
"Sorry."
Gu Ruoyun noticed the change in the man's expression and sneered.
"I refuse."
Lu Chen's expression sank, "Miss, I'm willing to hire him. You only need to name a price."
Xiao Zixie did not seem to hear him as he placed a pastry on the table into his mouth. His adorable and tender little face was full of smiles. However, if Lu Chen were to look at him now, he would certainly notice the murderous intent that flashed across his purple eyes.
"Hire him?" Gu Ruoyun laughed, "I'm afraid you can't afford that price!"
She was telling the truth.
Even though Xiao Zixie was still in his infancy, he was an Ancient Phoenix and had now reached the rank of a Martial Supreme. Hence, no one in this world would be able to hire him!
"Miss, name your price. No matter how much it is, I, Lu Chen, will definitely give it to you!"
Lu Chen's expression was a little ugly to behold. He had thought that this woman would fall for his charms and give the little boy by her side to Xia Chuling. Who would have thought that she would spout such nonsense?
