It wasn't just Ou Zhenglin. Yan Zhengchen and Gong Lu also looked at her.
From their point of view, Jiang Shen and Jiang Xiaoli were the only outsiders at this table.
Jiang Shen wasn't the kind of person who would ruthlessly destroy flowers. The only person worth suspecting was Jiang Xiaoli.
When Jiang Xiaoli saw that everyone's gazes were on her, she felt even more guilty.
However, on second thought, she realized that it was just a flower that looked better than the rest.
So what if she plucked it?
Therefore, Jiang Xiaoli sat up slightly and said generously, "I'm sorry, but I plucked that flower."
As soon as she finished speaking, the bright hall fell into a brief silence.
Yan Zhengchen and Gong Lu looked at her as if they were looking at a fool.
Ou Zhenglin and Liu Ruhua's expressions were the same. They were cold and gloomy.
On the other hand, Chi Jiao had a faint smile on her face as she sized Jiang Xiaoli up.
This woman dared to take responsibility for her actions. Very good. It saved her a lot of trouble.
Quan Jue frowned. He could vaguely feel that the flower wasn't an ordinary one.
Therefore, he reached out under the table and held Chi Jiao's petite hand on her lap tightly.
His consolation wasn't too obvious.
He was afraid that the flower had an extraordinary meaning and would make the delicate girl sad.
Jiang Shen sensitively sensed that the atmosphere in the hall wasn't right. At first, it was still considered harmonious, but now, it could only be described as an Asura Battlefield.
"Does that flower have any special coldness?" Jiang Shen asked as he wiped the cold sweat off his forehead.
"Hong Zai is a new species that Jiaojiao spent several years cultivating. It's a medicinal flower," Ou Zhenglin said indifferently. His cold gaze was fixed on Jiang Xiaoli. "Miss Jiang, why did you pluck the flower?"
Under Ou Zhenglin's sharp gaze, Jiang Xiaoli felt like she had nowhere to hide. She smiled dryly and said, "I didn't know that flower was a medicinal flower either. I thought it looked pretty, so I plucked it. I thought it was just an ordinary flower. This isn't a big mistake, right? At most, I'll just compensate you. "
Jiang Shen felt a headache coming on when he heard her words.
He really shouldn't have brought Jiang Xiaoli here this time!
Those who understood Ou Zhenglin and knew what he did for a living knew that the things in his courtyard couldn't be casually touched. Even a blade of grass could be a priceless medicinal herb!
At that time, his mind was filled with thoughts of how to get Ou Zhenglin and Liu Ruhua out of the mountain. He completely forgot to tell Jiang Xiaoli not to touch other people's things.
But since things had already reached this stage, Jiang Shen could only thicken his skin and say to Ou Zhenglin, "Old Mister Ou, I'm really sorry. It's natural for a young lady to like flowers and plants. If Xiao Li knew that it was a medicinal plant, she definitely wouldn't have touched it. But since it's already happened, why don't you name a price, old mister? We'll buy the flowers. "
Jiang Xiaoli nodded repeatedly at the side and looked at Chi Jiao proudly. "Since you're the one who nurtured the medicinal flowers, name your price."
No matter what, she was the eldest daughter of the Jiang family and did not lack money.
As soon as Jiang Xiaoli finished speaking, Yan Zhengchen and Gong Lu, who had been silent all this while, shifted their gazes elsewhere and stopped looking at her.
The reason was simple. The girl in front of them was so stupid that they couldn't bear to look at her.
Now that she had fallen into Jiaojiao's hands, they didn't even need to do anything for her to doom herself.
