Chapter 1194: Chapter 517: Jiang Yuan’s Banquet, Gorgeous Woman in Palace Dress!_3 Chapter 1194: Chapter 517: Jiang Yuan’s Banquet, Gorgeous Woman in Palace Dress!_3 Shu Xiaoxiao instantly lowered her head, her ears suffused with red, as she had already grasped Jiang Yuan’s intentions.
At that mont, her voice beca a faint whisper, “Okay, Young Master…”
…
Half a day later.
The two of them erged from the bathroom.
Shu Xiaoxiao followed closely behind Jiang Yuan, both already dressed in clean clothes that were pure white.
They looked like celestial lovers who had stepped out of a painting.
Jiang Yuan, looking at the warm sunlight above, felt utterly content in both body and mind.
The next mont.
The two appeared in Tianhe City.
anwhile, inside the Treasure Pavilion.
Following a ssage from Jiang Yuan.
The Treasure Pavilion in Tianhe City shook as if there had been an earthquake.
“Hurry, hurry, hurry! Get moving like we practiced before!”
“Yes, Manager!!!”
“Ruoxin, go and tell the Pavilion Master that Jiang Yuan will soon arrive at the branch in Tianhe City!”
“Yes, Manager!!!”
…
Elsewhere.
The pair stepped into Tianhe City.
“Young Master, this feels so wonderful!!” Shu Xiaoxiao, admiring the bustling crowd on either side of the street filled with the scent of worldly life, exclaid with a face full of wonder.
Jiang Yuan nodded, “It is nice!”
“Young Master, I still rember the first ti my parents brought into the city. Back then, entering Lin’an City was my first ti entering a county city from our village. Though it wasn’t as prosperous as this place, it was still an eye-opener. To think there were such grand city walls and such magnificent buildings in the world!” Shu Xiaoxiao murmured, her expression shifting uncertainly.
“Is Xiaoxiao missing your parents?” Jiang Yuan asked.
“No!!” Shu Xiaoxiao shook her head vehently, “They were never really kind to ! I had to start working when I was very young. Every ti the cave’s harvest season ca, I needed to cut grass and feed pigs, my hands were always covered with chilblains that would crack before they could heal!”
“Especially after my brother was born, it was even worse. Not only did I need to cut grass and feed pigs, but I also had to wash the family’s clothes by the river!”
“The agony of breaking the ice to fetch water every ti I washed clothes, I can’t forget it even now!”
As she spoke, Shu Xiaoxiao involuntarily clenched her small fists. Though her hands showed no signs of scars now, the mories seed to play out before her eyes.
She seed to feel the bone-chilling coldness, the numbness from the freezing.
Shu Xiaoxiao turned to Jiang Yuan with a smile, “Now that Xiaoxiao has Young Master, everything is better!!”
“Since they chose to sell back then, our ties of birth and upbringing were severed then and there!”
Jiang Yuan looked at her and fell silent for a mont.
Then, reaching out, he ruffled her hair, “Silly girl! When today’s journey is over, let’s go back and take a look. No matter what, they are still your parents!”
Shu Xiaoxiao: “…”
She was suddenly enveloped in silence.
After more than ten breaths, she hesitantly nodded her small head, “Then let’s go back for one last look! Let’s see if my brother got better after they sold !”
“Alright!” Jiang Yuan said.
While speaking, he ruffled her hair again.
A few monts passed.
Shu Xiaoxiao said, “Young Master, let’s go! To Treasure Pavilion!”
Jiang Yuan shook his head, “No rush! Xiaoxiao never got to properly enjoy the city last ti, so today I’ll accompany Xiaoxiao all the way. I’m not in a hurry at the mont. Besides, right now, everyone at Treasure Pavilion is waiting, waiting for soone who can take charge, make decisions!”
Shu Xiaoxiao’s eyes imdiately lit up with joy.
“Shall we take a stroll then?”
“Sure!” Jiang Yuan smiled.
…
Over two hours later.
The two figures finally made their way to the street where the Treasure Pavilion was located.
By now, the entire Treasure Pavilion had been cleared.
Outside the Treasure Pavilion, a large number of guards maintained vigilant protection.
On both sides of the street, curious onlookers had also gathered.
“It’s been hours, what’s with the huge display of the Treasure Pavilion? What on earth are they doing?”
“I heard, oh! They’re waiting for a distinguished guest!!”
“A distinguished guest? What kind of guest is worth such a huge fuss from the Treasure Pavilion? Closing off for several hours, not doing business—the losses must be substantial!”
“How should I know?”
“Doesn’t your cousin work there as the captain of the guard? How do you not know?”
“All I know is that the guest they are expecting is extrely esteed. I heard from the start, it was reported to the main Pavilion! This kind of setup probably only the core managers of this branch would know who the guest is!”
“…”
Upon entering the street, Jiang Yuan imdiately saw the grand arrangent ahead.
He couldn’t help but shake his head slightly, “This is too much, too eye-catching.”
As he spoke, Jiang Yuan walked towards the Treasure Pavilion with Shu Xiaoxiao following behind.
The onlookers on both sides of the street remained completely unaware of the pair’s arrival.
“Ah yum! Ah yum!!”
“Delicious!”
Shu Xiaoxiao followed behind Jiang Yuan, biting into several skewers in her hand with great relish.
A mont later.
“He’s here!”
Manager Cui’s gaze sharpened as she suddenly saw Jiang Yuan appearing before her eyes, and she was stunned.
“Let’s go inside first,” Jiang Yuan said casually.
Cui Wanru nodded repeatedly, and while glancing at the onlookers on both sides of the street with the corner of her eye, she realized that none of them had noticed Jiang Yuan’s arrival and understood at once.
Just then.
A train of footsteps sounded behind her, and a graceful woman wearing a gown appeared.
This beautiful lady wore a green jade hair ornant and was dressed in a purple gown, exuding a mature charm and remaining beauty.
Though her looks were no longer youthful, her complexion was flawless, like white jade.
