Even though the reason sounded a little far-fetched, it was still acceptable. He nodded and gave Xi Mengjia an encouraging smile.
"Mengjia, you did very well today. Grandpa is very pleased that you have improved."
Xi Mengjia was flattered. "Thank you for the compliment, Grandpa. Mengjia will continue to work hard and try to pass the semi-finals."
To be honest, it would have been quite difficult for her to pass the preliminaries. If she hadn't used a little trick … Xi Mengjia's eyes flashed. She didn't feel the need to tell the truth.
No matter what tricks she used, the most important thing was the result, wasn't it?
Finally, Xi Family's Patriarch's gaze landed on Schilling's Shadow, who seemed to be uninvolved in the matter … Xi Jiajia's expression became complicated.
"Mengying, you …" He tried to say something, but felt like nothing he said would be appropriate. In the end, he could only say helplessly.
"Tell grandpa the truth. Did you pass the preliminaries because you happened to pick up a token that someone dropped?"
Schilling's Shadow fell silent. He could only say …
"Grandpa's imagination sure is rich. But since grandpa is so sure, then let's just pretend it is."
What do you mean by "let's just pretend it is?"
Xi Jiajia sighed helplessly. He thought about how Schilling's Shadow was lucky enough to pick up a token that caused Xi Mengmei, who had Battle Force, to lose her chance in the semi-finals … He couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
He wasn't the only one. Even the other elders, with the exception of the third elder, felt that it would be better to let Xi Mengmei try her luck instead of letting Schilling's Shadow enter the semi-finals.
After all, there was only hope if she had Battle Force.
"There are still three days until the semi-finals. During these three days, I will send the guards in my courtyard to protect you. I will not allow anyone to disturb you for even a moment. You only need to prepare yourself for the semi-finals. As for whether you can pass, that will be up to fate."
In fact, none of them believed that Schilling's Shadow could pass the semi-finals.
Xi Mengdie looked at Xi Family's Patriarch in astonishment. He knew that Schilling's Shadow had no chance of passing the semi-finals, so why did he do this? Did Grandpa already know that someone was going to mess with Schilling's Shadow?
Xi Mengmei's pig-like face flashed through her mind. Then, she thought about how Schilling's Shadow just happened to be one step ahead of Mengmei, and that was why he was able to snatch the 30th spot in the semi-finals … Based on Mengmei's personality, she definitely wouldn't accept this, and would make a big fuss out of Schilling's Shadow to get even with him.
A sinister thought flashed through her mind. Her grandfather had always been a cautious person, so it wasn't strange that he would think of something like this. However, when she heard this, she still felt very angry. Schilling's Shadow was just a piece of trash who couldn't cultivate Dou Qi. What right did he have to be protected by her grandfather's guards?
Xi Mengdie clenched her fists and took a deep breath. If that was the case, then she would let Schilling's Shadow live for three more days … Even if she couldn't do it in Cool Breeze Courtyard, then she would do it during the semi-finals. As long as she had the chance, she definitely wouldn't let that bastard Schilling's Shadow off the hook.
Xi Mengjia keenly sensed the change in Xi Mengdie's expression. She lowered her head slightly, and the corner of her mouth hooked up into a sinister smile. Schilling's Shadow had never been a threat to her, except for the fact that she was once engaged to Jin Yijue … However, if she could use Xi Mengdie to get rid of Schilling's Shadow, and then spread the news …
Xi Mengdie's reputation would definitely take a hit. When that happened, would the Jin Family still want this vicious daughter-in-law?
