It was a crystal clear mutton-fat jade bracelet.
Mr. Zhan's eyes lit up, but on his face, he asked calmly, "Miss Ran gave me a jade bracelet. Does it have any meaning?"
Ran Xia smiled and replied, "Grandpa Zhan, I gave you this jade bracelet simply because I thought it was appropriate. Jade can replenish the trace elements that the human body lacks, balance the meridians, veins, nerves, blood, and the activity and physiological functions of various physiological organs in the body, and can promote your health. Moreover, jade can also ward off evil spirits." {Source: Baidu}
Mr. Zhan was very satisfied.
He already knew that Ran Xia had given Fu Nanqing a mutton-fat jade bracelet at his birthday party and that Ran Xia had treated Fu Nanqing's illness.
He was also very curious about who this little girl was. Not only did she dare to say that she could cure Fu Nanqing's illness, but she could also bewitch his grandson so much?
That's why he asked Zhan Beiyao to bring the little girl back to see him today.
Although he was not sure whether this little girl had any medical skills, she was indeed very pleasing.
"Warning evil?"
But when Zhan Yichen heard this, he deliberately asked back, "My grandfather is fine, what evil could there be? Aren't you just spreading rumors to confuse the public?"
Zhan Beiyao certainly wouldn't allow Zhan Yichen to question Ran Xia's feelings, so he directly retorted: "Brother, you are so petty and judge others by your own standards. I think you are the one who is misleading people, right?"
Old Master Zhan frowned slightly.
Every time these two brothers meet, they want to fight to the death.
Can't you just talk nicely?
Just as Grandpa Zhan was about to speak, Ran Xia spoke sweetly: "A man as virtuous and respected as our Grandpa Zhan naturally doesn't need to ward off evil spirits."
Then, her eyes fell on Zhan Yichen: "But this doesn't mean that the people around Grandpa Zhan don't need to ward off evil spirits. What if the bad luck of others gets on Grandpa? With this jade bracelet, Grandpa will be immune to all poisons and his health will be strong."
When Zhan Yichen heard this, his expression suddenly turned ugly.
How could he not hear that Ran Xia was alluding to him?
More importantly, my grandfather has become a bit superstitious since he got older.
So this little girl's words should be very helpful to grandpa, right?
As expected, Mr. Zhan finally showed a satisfied expression on his face: "Little girl, you are really good at talking."
"Thank you for the compliment, Grandpa Zhan." Ran Xia nodded politely.
When Yuan Qian saw Ran Xia like this, a relieved smile appeared on her face.
She had been worried that the little girl couldn't handle Zhan Yichen, but it seemed she was just being overly concerned.
Similarly, Zhan Beiyao's father, Zhan Feixuan, also changed from being dissatisfied with Ran Xia at the beginning to being amazed now.
A Yao's eyesight towards people is really vicious!
In time, this little girl will definitely not be an ordinary person!
But at this moment, Zhan Yichen suddenly laughed again: "Miss Ran is worthy of being the girl that A Yao has taken a fancy to. She really knows how to please the old man. But I heard that you also gave Fu Nanqing the same jade bracelet at his birthday party last time. Is that true?"
The reason why he said this was to tell everyone that Grandpa's status was much more noble than Fu Nanqing's. This little girl actually gave Grandpa a jade bracelet that was exactly the same as Fu Nanqing's?
In addition, when Fu Nanqing saw his grandfather, he had to respectfully call him uncle, which made him considered as his grandfather's junior.
Ran Xia gave the same gift to grandpa. Isn't this equivalent to belittling grandpa's status?
Oh!
He wanted to see how this little girl could defend herself.
When Zhan Beiyao saw that Zhan Yichen had always been picking on his little girl, his eyes immediately revealed a cold and sharp murderous intent.
If looks could kill, Zhan Yichen would have died hundreds of times already.
At this time, Ran Xia gently held Zhan Beiyao's hand and gave him a confident smile.
As if to say, "Trust me, I can handle this."
The hostility in Zhan Beiyao gradually dissipated.
He knew his little girl's abilities.
Since she said yes, it must be possible!
At this time, Ran Xia glanced at Zhan Yichen indifferently again.
Of course she knew what the other party was up to.
If she were to belittle Fu Nanqing in order to praise Grandpa Zhan, Zhan Yichen would definitely tell Fu Nanqing about it.
If she didn't make any explanation, she might offend Grandpa Zhan.
It seemed that no matter which side she offended, she would be in a thankless position.
But is Ran Xia so easily defeated?
Thinking of this, the girl smiled faintly: "Yes, the bracelet I gave to Grandpa Zhan is indeed the same as the one I gave to Uncle Fu."
Zhan Yichen took the opportunity to ask back, "So in Miss Ran's mind, Grandpa and Fu Nanqing have the same status?"
Seeing Zhan Yichen trying to provoke a fight, Yuan Qian wanted to help Ran Xia, but Zhan Feixuan shook his head at her and stopped her.
In his opinion, if this little girl really had the ability, she would definitely be able to solve these problems by herself.
As for Zhan Beiyao, although he wanted to tear Zhan Yichen into pieces, he did not make any further statement.
Because he knew that his little girl was not as weak as he imagined.
Sure enough, Ran Xia still had a harmless smile on her face. "In my eyes, there is no distinction between high and low. Grandpa Zhan and Uncle Fu are both elders worthy of my respect. Besides, jade is a spiritual object that can nourish the body and can be worn by people of all ages. If you like it, I can give you one someday."
At this point, she looked at Grandpa Zhan and asked with a smile, "Grandpa Zhan, I wonder if this gift suits your taste? If you don't like it, I'll give you something else next time."
Mr. Zhan happens to dislike hypocritical people.
If Ran Xia had used any excuse to cover it up just now, he might really be disgusted with this girl.
But the girl's frank answer made him look at her with new eyes.
So he said, "The gift is small but the sentiment is great. Miss Ran is thoughtful."
Ran Xia could tell that Grandpa Zhan had no problem with her, so she immediately thanked him sweetly: "I'm honored that Grandpa Zhan likes my gift."
Zhan Yichen: "..."
This little girl's ability to respond on the spot is really strong.
But he likes it!
If this little girl could be used by him, she would definitely achieve great things in the future.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but praise: "Miss Ran is really a rare talented girl, with outstanding emotional intelligence and IQ. It is really an honor for A Yao to have a fiancée like you who is both talented and beautiful."
At this point, he looked at Yuan Qian again and said with a hint of meaning: "Before, I was very confused as to why Auntie announced your identity as Ayao's fiancée so early. It turns out that Auntie has a keen eye for talent."
