Chapter 838: The Woman Who Was Thrown Away Five Years Ago (4)
Father Bai, upon hearing An Yiqing’s words, was extremely excited and nodded repeatedly, "Good! Good! Good! Xiao Qing, with these words of yours, uncle can rest easy! Great! This is really wonderful! Xiao Qing, on behalf of Grandpa Bai, I thank you in advance!"
"Uncle Bai, what are you talking about? Although I haven’t known Grandpa Bai for long, he has always treated me like his own granddaughter, so naturally I’ll do my best to help Grandpa Bai," An Yiqing said, shaking her head and smiling.
Father Bai gratefully nodded, sighing with emotion, "Ah, Zisheng indeed has a good daughter. That saying in Xuandu City isn’t wrong at all, ’To have a daughter like An Yiqing.’ Xiao Qing, you really make us envious!"
At that moment, Old Master Gu, Old Master An, Father Bai, and An Yiqing, the four of them, were happily conversing, interacting on equal footing and sharing insights on various matters, much to the astonishment of the guests around them.
They all couldn’t understand how, despite her outstanding abilities, An Yiqing could engage two highly esteemed elders in discussions of national affairs as if she were their peer. What special skills did she have?
Everyone was puzzled, and Huang Yiyi, who had been observing An Yiqing from a distance, was even more baffled.
In Huang Yiyi’s eyes, An Yiqing was just a woman with a strong family background and some minor talents and cleverness, who could only wield power in Xuandu City thanks to the backing of the Gu Family. She couldn’t understand why, among all the wealthy daughters, An Yiqing received so much attention from Old Master Gu. You could hear his laughter; it was almost bursting through the roof!
Huang Yiyi, with a fierce grip on the wilted flowers in her hand, seethed with resentment but had nowhere to vent it.
Just then, a commotion arose from the gate of the villa, and a woman dressed in a red floor-length gown appeared before everyone. Huang Yiyi’s eyes lit up instantly.
