Chapter 250: Old Mada Xie (2)
“Thank you, Elder Brother Li.”
Li Qingcang teased her, “Silly girl. Why are you getting so touched by such small things?”
“That’s right, Tianxin. You mustn’t cry,” Jing Zhichen chid in. “Otherwise, if you ruin your beautiful makeup today, you won’t look like a princess anymore.”
Ye Tianxin could not help but laugh. Her beautiful eyes were filled with tears.
He was really nice.
Elder Brother Li was really very nice.
“Alright. I can’t cry. I must smile.”
The three got into the car. Jing Zhichen drove Li Qingcang and Ye Tianxin to a scenic spot that required entrance tickets.
Today was Old Mada Xie’s 100th birthday.
Most of the powerful and wealthiest people of the capital had received an invitation to the birthday banquet.
“Tianxin, I will take you to my elder sister later and co to find you again when the banquet officially starts.”
Ye Tianxin would definitely do what Li Qingcang asked her to do. She trusted Li Qingcang’s plans 200 percent.
When they arrived at the venue, Li Xingchen was playing mahjong with Old Mada Xie. Old Mada Xie looked like a kind and benevolent woman and was extrely skilled at mahjong.
“Sis, take care of Tianxin for a while.”
Li Xingchen looked at Li Qingcang who was wearing a matching suit with Tianxin’s dress. She realized that her younger brother was really a very conflicting person.
He was soone who would say sothing completely contrary to how he felt.
“Okay. Go to where your brother-in-law is and see if he needs your help.”
“Alright.”
Ye Tianxin waved at Li Qingcang.
Li Qingcang felt safe leaving Ye Tianxin with Li Xingchen.
He then left to mingle with other guests.
“Old Mada, do you rember when my dumb brother got injured during a mission so ti ago? It was this lady who saved him.”
The old mada of the Xie family looked at Ye Tianxin. Ye Tianxin knew that it was her birthday today, so she greeted her, “Old Mada, wishing you a long and healthy life.”
“This lass has a sweet tongue and a kind heart. She will definitely do great things in the future.”
“I will definitely be able to do great things since you have said that, Old Mada.”
There were plenty of people who wanted to butter up to the old mada of the Xie family.
Yet, there were so people who just could not get into the old mada’s good books no matter what they did.
Ye Tianxin seed to be the only exception.
The old mada liked Ye Tianxin from the mont she set her eyes on her.
“Lass, how old are you?”
“I just turned 18.”
The old mada stopped playing. The other players naturally did not hurry her. She said, “Eighteen is a good age. You are just like a flower in full bloom at this age. Who else is there in your family?”
“I have a grandmother. She’s back in our hotown.”
Those watching and those playing mahjong all sized Ye Tianxin up. They were thinking, ‘What in the world did the young lady do to make Old Mada Xie like her?’
“It was not easy for your grandmother to raise you. You have to be filial to your grandmother in the future.”
“Yes, I will definitely do as you say.”
“Obedient children are really good children. If my three sons were as obedient as you, I wouldn’t have to worry.”
Li Xingchen did not interrupt. However, an old woman seated beside Old Mada Xie said, “Old Mada, you mustn’t worry. What if they bring ho a partner one day suddenly...”
“Given how stubborn Number Three is, I will smile so wide that I won’t be able to close my mouth if he really brings soone ho, man or woman.”
Ye Tianxin’s gaze landed on the old woman who had spoken earlier.
She had noticed that the woman had six fingers on her right hand right after she sat down earlier.
