Chapter 327: Chapter 327 Delighted by Misfortune_1

Wu Qiyi had just left a few minutes ago when her grandmother arrived at the attic’s entrance with the Young Marshal and a middle-aged Taoist priest.

Seeing Xi Yu sitting outside the attic in a small pavilion reading a book, Grandmother Wu Qiyu couldn’t help frowning and asked, "Xi Yu, where is the young lady?"

Xi Yu gracefully stood up and replied to Grandmother Wu Qiyu, "Reporting to the Old Madam, the young miss has gone out."

"Gone out? Where has she gone?"

"To meet with an esteemed guest," Xi Yu had no intention of hiding the truth; after all, there was no need for it.

"This girl is getting more and more out of line, leaving the house without so much as a word." Grandmother Wu Qiyu glared at Xi Yu and asked coldly, "You should know where she is, shouldn’t you?"

Xi Yu smiled faintly, "I do."

"You know and yet you don’t take me to her quickly!"

Xi Yu kept silent with a smile. She glanced at the Young Marshal and the Taoist priest with the surname Liang behind Grandmother Wu Qiyu and asked softly with a light chuckle, "The young master from the Cen family sure is concerned about our young miss. He just left yesterday and has come again today; isn’t the formal meeting to get acquainted scheduled for this afternoon? You seem to be moving a bit too eagerly, aren’t you?"

The Young Marshal cleared his throat. At this moment, for some reason, he found himself unable to meet Xi Yu’s gaze. At the same time, a thought naturally arose in his heart—this woman seemed to be able to see right through his thoughts!

However, after this thought made a round in his mind, he resumed his usual confident smile, "Miss Xi Yu is joking. I was invited by the Old Madam."

"Invited?" Xi Yu gently closed the book in her hand. She remained seated on the bench, showing no intention of getting up, "Then must this Taoist priest by the Cen family’s young master’s side have been invited by the Old Madam as well?"

"That’s right, the Taoist priest was invited by me!"

Grandmother Wu Qiyu glared coldly at Xi Yu.

To be honest, Xi Yu had grown up under her watch, but for some reason, she now seemed extremely unfamiliar in her eyes.

"Could she too be under some ghost art?"

Grandmother Wu Qiyu turned to the middle-aged Taoist priest by her side and asked softly.

The middle-aged Taoist priest slightly lowered his head and saw the Young Marshal’s feet pointed inward from the corner of his eye. Only then did he look up slightly and shook his head gently at Grandmother Wu Qiyu.

After hearing this, Grandmother Wu Qiyu let out a slight sigh of relief and said to Xi Yu, "Stop wasting time here; quickly take us to see the young miss."

Xi Yu looked at the delicate lady’s watch on her wrist and slowly stood up, "I will take the Old Madam there."

With that said, Xi Yu went on her way to the garage without waiting for anyone.

Grandmother Wu Qiyu turned to the Young Marshal, her face showing displeasure, "It seems Little Qiyi has indeed fallen under that scoundrel’s ghost art as you all said. Come with me, I will tear that vile youngster to pieces!"

There was a hint of murderous intent in Grandmother Wu Qiyu’s words.

Xi Yu had walked only about ten meters away. With her back to Grandmother Wu Qiyu and the others, they naturally didn’t notice the slight upward curve of Xi Yu’s sultry lips or the glimmer of light that passed through her eyes and brows.

"Mother En, it’s getting late and we are nearly half an hour from the airport. In case we hit traffic, that wouldn’t be good, let’s go," you said.

Mother En nodded with a smile and stood up with you.

Xiao Feng glanced at his phone and looked around, noting the absence of Wu Qiyi and couldn’t help but inwardly lament.

As you three were leaving the breakfast stall, getting ready to get into Xiao Feng’s car, a BMW X5 roared up and came to a screeching halt, employing a drifting technique to park at a one hundred and eighty-degree angle right in front of Xiao Feng’s car.

"Wow!"

It wasn’t just Xiao Feng; even you couldn’t help but open your mouth wide in awe. That driving skill was too cool!

Although the driver was not visible, a glance at the license plate revealed that it belonged to Wu Qiyi, prompting a look towards Xiao Feng.

Xiao Feng, however, wore an expression that screamed "not my problem" and even began to whistle.

Soon, the car door opened, the first thing entering your eyes was a stunningly beautiful body with golden ratio curves, followed by Wu Qiyi’s face, which was endlessly charming.

You hadn’t expected Wu Qiyi to show up and, seeing her walking towards you with a smile, you couldn’t help but scratch your head.

This girl really knows how to stir things up!

Grandmother En had watched you grow up and knew all your habits; seeing that look on your face, she couldn’t help laughing, recognizing it as the guilty look of a thief.

Wu Qiyi walked up to Grandmother En courteously and bowed, saying, "Hello, Grandma."

"Call her Mother En," Xiao Feng chimed in from the side.

Wu Qiyi was quick-witted and promptly corrected herself, "Mother En."

"Oh, good girl," Mother En said, taking Wu Qiyi’s delicate jade hand and gently patting the back of it, looking at you with a smile, "Little Yunyun, this girl must be the girlfriend you mentioned? She is indeed beautiful, much prettier than your mother in her youth."

"Ah-Choo!"

At that moment, someone rummaging through documents in a gloomy basement sneezed, causing dust to fly everywhere.

"Auntie, you’ve been searching for so long, it’s time to rest. If Cousin Mu Yun saw you, he would certainly feel distressed," said a pitifully charming and stunningly beautiful woman, picking up several scrolls that had fallen to the ground and placing them back on the shelf.

Your mother turned to the incredible beauty in front of her and said with a slight frown, "Mei Yu, you’re not really my brother’s biological child, are you?"

Turning around, Xiao Meiyu replied with a smile, "Yes, many people know about that."

"And yet my mother designated you as the next heir to the Xiao Family. There must be a condition, right?"

Xiao Meiyu looked at your mother with a smile and said sweetly, "Auntie, you’re really astute. Grandmother said that as long as I can bear Cousin Mu Yun a child, whether a son or a daughter, I can take the reins of the Xiao Family."

"Terrifying woman."

With that, your mother lowered her head and continued to peruse the documents.

"Auntie must have misunderstood me. I wouldn’t deceive Cousin Mu Yun like that; I’ll make him marry me willingly," Mei Yu assured.

Looking up, your mother responded with a laugh, "Well, that brat is in for some serious bad luck next."

What kind of mother would take pleasure in her son’s misfortune!

"Ah-Choo!"

You sneezed in Xiao Feng’s direction!

"Hey, buddy, who are you sneezing at?" Xiao Feng said, recoiling in disgust.

You glared at Xiao Feng fiercely, grabbing him by the neck, "For running your mouth! Why did you notify Er Ya? You’ve just made a simple matter complicated!"

Xiao Feng’s face was all schadenfreude, his smile comparable to that of an Akita dog!

"Mother En, you’ve come all this way, why not stay for a few more days?"

"I’m getting old and lack the energy. I’ve lived in Chaotian Village for years, far from the secular world, enjoying my solitude, and naturally developed a resistance and aversion to big cities. Now that Little Yunyun’s curse has been lifted, I’ve accomplished half of my heart’s desire," Mother En explained.

Wu Qiyi’s eyes twinkled as she asked with a smile, "And what about the other half?"
