Chapter 1301: Frustrating (1)
Shu Jingzhi had originally just wanted to come and see what kind of girl could capture Gu Qingheng’s heart. Honestly, he didn’t have high hopes since she was a village girl. Even if she had good looks and some business skills, how impressive could she really be? But when he actually met Yang Ruxin, he realized he had been narrow-minded. Where on earth did this girl show even a hint of being countrified? Especially this time when he came, he brought significant gifts, including a set of emerald jewelry that had once belonged to his grandmother, an heirloom of immense value. Not just any village girl, but even worldly people would be dazzled by it. Yet, this girl merely glanced at it and, despite saying "It’s too precious," her manner seemed utterly perfunctory.
Shu Jingzhi could be certain that the girl hadn’t taken it to heart at all, probably regarding it as no more unique than a large carrot. This scenario could mean either she was used to seeing grand things, or she just didn’t care. But whichever it was, it was quite frustrating.
What’s more, this girl’s aura was something else—it was only her current simple outfit. He dared say that if she dressed up, not even the folks in the palace might match her presence.
"Why is Uncle staring at me like that?" Yang Ruxin naturally noticed Shu Jingzhi’s astonished look. "Aren’t you tired?"
Shu Jingzhi couldn’t help but chuckle wordlessly, then he followed Feng Family to the guest room.
All the dishes for dinner were prepared by Yang Ruxin. Shu Jingzhi prided himself on being well-traveled and knowledgeable, but most of the dishes on the dinner table were ones he had never eaten before.
Shu Laoye knew even more, having heard Gu Qingheng talk about Yang Ruxin before. The praise had been extremely understated.
Not to mention, he had even met the legendary Dao Xuzi. Just for that reason, it seemed that his nephew had indeed married a treasure.
