Xi Mengdie lowered her head and pretended to be pitiful.
Every time she did that, her grandfather's heart would soften and he would go along with her wishes.
But this time, Xi Mengdie waited and waited, but the head of the Xi Family didn't soften his heart. She couldn't help but grit her teeth in hatred.
The target of her hatred was, of course, Schilling's Shadow.
After sending Xi Mengdie away, the head of the Xi Family studied Schilling's Shadow with a scrutinizing gaze.
She was dressed in plain clothes and there wasn't anything special about her appearance. Her ordinary features were easily forgettable, but if one paid more attention, they would be captivated by her pair of sharp eyes.
That pair of sharp eyes appeared ordinary because of the single eyelid. However, if one didn't pay attention to her heavy eyelids and directly looked into her eyes, they would feel like they had discovered a whole new world.
It was a strange feeling, especially since he was the Patriarch of the Xi Family. What kind of world had he not seen? Why would he be impressed by a little girl in her teens?
Not to mention, the girl was a piece of trash without any Dou Qi!
But it was true that he was impressed by Schilling's Shadow because of her intelligence.
He believed that this girl would be able to pass the preliminaries and semi-finals because she was very smart.
How could he not know what kind of person Xi Mengdie was? It was only because Xi Mengdie was the most outstanding member of the Xi Family's younger generation that he indulged her a little. As long as it didn't harm the Xi Family's interests, he wouldn't criticize Xi Mengdie too much because he knew that Xi Mengdie had a sense of propriety.
But now, everything about Xi Mengdie had become a contrast to Schilling's Shadow.
Compared to Xi Mengdie, he felt that this Schilling's Shadow was even better than Xi Mengdie … Furthermore, she had an aura that Xi Mengdie didn't have.
Because Xi Mengdie was used to pretending to be gentle, she appeared to be a pretty girl from a humble family.
He believed that Jin Yijue also gradually felt this way, so she began to distance herself from Xi Mengdie … This was a result that he didn't expect and didn't want to see.
No matter what, the marriage between the Xi Family and the Jin Family could not be broken.
While Patriarch Xi's thoughts were running wild, Schilling's Shadow was getting bored. "Grandpa, if there's nothing else, Nuo Ying would like to return to Breezy Courtyard first."
"Wait, the Cool Breeze Courtyard is too far away. Grandfather will arrange another courtyard for you." Finally, he said the name of a courtyard.
Right at this moment, a figure approached the main hall and heard the Xi Family Head's words.
Xi Mengjia's eyes were filled with jealousy and unwillingness.
That courtyard was the best in the entire Xi Family other than the main residence. Grandfather usually left it empty to entertain the most important guests … But now, he was saying that he was going to give it to Schilling's Shadow?!
Xi Mengjia gripped the pillar next to her tightly. She was so jealous that she was about to go crazy.
Xi Nuoying, what right did she have, what right did she have! She abruptly turned around and left the main hall.
Xi Mengjia and Schilling's Shadow didn't pay much attention to her, but they heard Schilling's Shadow smile faintly.
"Thank you for your kindness, Grandpa, but I'm used to Breezy Courtyard, so I don't really want to move."
Xi Jiajjia was slightly taken aback.
