Chu Shiyu withdrew his gaze indifferently.
When Jiang Qi saw Chu Shiyu and Ruan Qiao, his expression was rarely cold and hostile as before.
Instead, the middle-aged man next to him came forward with a smile and said politely, "Mr. Chu, my name is Hong. I feel honored to meet you here."
Elder Hong stepped forward and looked at Chu Shiyu with a smile.
His eyes swept over Ruan Qiao.
Chu Shiyu looked over and said slowly: "The seven-colored elder under the Phoenix Lord's seat is Hong."
Elder Hong immediately nodded and saluted, saying, "Yes, it is Hong."
Chu Shiyu stopped talking and looked at Jiang Qi. It seemed that the mysterious Phoenix Lord was Jiang Qi's biological mother, Mo Yao.
Because of this identity, Jiang Qi was still very proud even when facing Chu Shiyu.
But when he looked at Ruan Qiao, there was something else in his eyes.
Wei Zixuan naturally noticed these differences. She narrowed her eyes slightly and analyzed them secretly.
Jiang Qi's attitude towards her changed after the appearance of Elder Hong.
In other words, Jiang Qi's mother, the mysterious Phoenix Lord, did not think highly of him, but instead took a fancy to Ruan Qiao.
Wei Zixuan suddenly clenched his fists, and in extreme unwillingness, his nails dug into the flesh.
The corners of her lips curled up in a sneer. Isn't that Lord Feng too short-sighted?
Is it because he has suffered several losses at the hands of Ruan Qiao that he feels that he is inferior to Ruan Qiao?
Just wait, she's going to make everyone regret it.
Since everyone came here for the ancient spiritual jade, other topics didn't last long and they quickly got to the point.
Shao Shihuai personally led a group of guests to the exhibition hall specially set aside by the Shao family to display the spiritual jade.
The servant pushed open the door, and immediately, there was a burst of exclamations.
On the second floor, Shao Yiyi was wearing a pink sequined fishtail skirt, her long hair combed into big waves, and a delicate pink diamond hairpin was pinned on one side.
She wore the same pink diamond earrings and necklace, and she sparkled like a little princess.
She looked at herself in the mirror, carefully dressed, and examined herself with satisfaction.
"Mom, do you think I'm beautiful?" She looked at the woman who was looking at her with a smile.
Mrs. Shao smiled dotingly, "Of course my Yiyi is beautiful!"
Shao Yiyi continued to look at herself in the mirror with satisfaction, "Mom, although Ruan Qiao is very beautiful, I am no worse than her!"
"Our Yiyi is the most beautiful, how can Ruan Qiao compare to you? You are my favorite little princess!"
"I want to be my mother's only little princess!"
"Okay, Weiyi, you little jealous girl!" The woman tapped her cute nose lovingly.
"Mom, our house is so lively today. I'm going to go see my sister. She must really want to go downstairs and play. I'm going to comfort An Dao."
When mentioning her eldest daughter, the kindness on Mrs. Shao's face suddenly disappeared, and a hint of disgust flashed in her eyes.
Seeing this, Shao Yiyi felt very proud. She stood up and walked outside.
Shao Jiajia stood in front of the window on the second floor, looking downstairs.
The downstairs was full of people. The ancient spiritual jades were dazzling and filled the entire Shao family hall, shrouding the entire Shao family in the jade aura emitted by the ancient spiritual jades.
However, those auras contained not only spiritual energy, but also black energy.
Spiritual energy and black energy intertwined, and the entire Shao family was submerged in such energy.
Her face was unusually pale, and her eyes were dull and lifeless, as if she had no life in her.
Just then, the bedroom door was pushed open and Shao Yiyi walked in.
"Sister!" Shao Yiyi called happily.
Shao Jiajia turned her head and looked at Shao Yiyi.
Shao Yiyi's glittering outfit dazzled Shao Jiajia, and she subconsciously narrowed her eyes.
Shao Yiyi looked at her with a smile and asked innocently, "Sister, do you think I'm beautiful like this?"
Shao Jiajia nodded, "Beautiful."
Seeing her dull and indifferent reaction, Shao Yiyi pouted in dissatisfaction.
"Sister, do you see how lively it is down there?" Shao Yiyi asked again, unwillingly.
Shao Jiajia nodded, still responding calmly: "It's lively."
Shao Yiyi blinked and asked, "Sister, do you want to go down and take a look?"
Shao Jiajia seemed to remember something, a glint of fear suddenly flashed in her eyes, and she quickly shook her head: "I don't want to. Yiyi, Dad will beat me if he finds out!"
Shao Yiyi finally nodded in satisfaction. She loved seeing Shao Jiajia looking frightened or sad the most.
She smiled with satisfaction and said, "Okay, then I'll go down and check it out for my sister, okay?"
"Okay." Shao Jiajia nodded.
"Sister, I'm good to you, please thank me!" Shao Yiyi said coquettishly.
"Okay, thank you Yiyi!" said Shao Jiajia.
Only then did Shao Yiyi glance at Shao Jiajia with a look full of superiority, turned around and walked out.
"Yiyi, why did you say so much to her?" Mrs. Shao's dissatisfied voice sounded.
"I see my sister is often stuck in that room. She's so pitiful." Shao Yiyi said in a soft voice.
"Ah, our Yiyi is just too kind. Shao Jiajia is a monster. You should try to avoid going to her house as much as possible in the future. It's unlucky!"
"Mom, don't say that, she is my sister!"
"Hmph, if she wasn't still useful, would the Shao family still keep her?" Mrs. Shao said with disgust.
The voice was getting farther and farther away, and a hint of loneliness gradually appeared in Shao Jiajia's empty eyes.
She turned and walked to the desk where there was a computer. She opened one of the software programs and on it was a set of buildings that she had just designed.
She had previously accepted an order online and had already paid the balance. The five million yuan design fee was enough for her to leave home and live a good life.
