Chapter 1175: Chapter 1174: Phone Call
Tang Lan thought of how she had sincerely sent Jiang Nanfei the clothes she personally designed, only to be arrogantly rejected by her. She had brought her brother to visit, only to be thrown out and subjected to venomous voice messages that belittled her.
Tang Lan felt utterly ashamed in her heart.
That was the painter she admired most, the person she revered!
Had she known earlier, she would have treasured the clothes with the utmost devotion. They were indeed very precious, as stated in the Time Magazine interview with Jiang Nanfei, where she mentioned that her focus was no longer on painting and that she had handed over the clothing design to her apprentice.
This meant that there would be no more designs personally crafted by her in the future.
Countless times, Tang Lan cursed herself for not recognizing the value of her gift, lacking even the courage to apologize in person.
After Lu Dongxin finished speaking, the situation did not develop as she had expected, and the strange looks from everyone only amplified her unease.
“What… what’s wrong?” she asked, feigning panic.
Wei An was about to speak but was interrupted by the family’s nanny rushing over excitedly, “Minister, minister…”
“What’s the matter?”
“It’s Wei Qin, Wei Qin is calling. He asked you to take the phone…”
Before the nanny could finish, Wei Fangyi had already dashed upstairs agilely to answer the call.
There were two telephones in the Wei Family’s home, one upstairs in Wei Fangyi’s study. It was a military line with a stronger signal, clearer and without regional restrictions. He usually used this line to communicate with Wei Qin.
“Hello! Wei Qin, how are you doing in Sui County? Can your body handle it?” As soon as he heard from his eldest son, Wei Fangyi was too concerned to bother with trivial matters.
“I’m doing well!” Wei Qin’s clear voice came through the phone, sounding indeed very good.
The joy in his voice was something Wei Fangyi heard for the first time, which gradually eased his initially irritability, and he even smiled slightly. “Did you encounter some good news? Why are you so happy?”
He only thought it must be some happy event or person; the idea of finding his son seemed like an impossible dream.
He feared the greater his hopes, the greater his disappointment.
“Father, there is good news, particularly great news,” Wei Qin’s elegant voice carried a hint of relief as he suppressed the excitement in his heart and slowly said, “I am on my way back now, I will be in Imperial City soon.”
“What good news? Tell me.”
“Wait!” Wei Qin interrupted, “Could you get Jiang Yang on the phone? I looked for him in several places and couldn’t find him, but I just heard that Jiang Yang is at our house.”
“Jiang Yang left, he just went with Huo Bei Jiang,” Wei Fangyi’s mind swirled with confusion.
“He left again?” The lament in Wei Qin’s tone was heartbreaking, not even the biggest surprise could mask the fact that Jiang Yang was intentionally avoiding him.
