Chapter 15: 15, Deliberately let loose in order to capture later 5_1
The elder of the Yu Family had an unwavering gaze and nodded, "This Emperor Green Jade, which rarely appears once in a hundred years, is sought after by all jade carving masters. If Jingrong can have it carved at Yu Mansion, I naturally will have nothing else to say."
Yu Jingrong bit her lip, her heart once again engaged in a fierce battle.
She didn't want to marry Li Chengyun, but she truly desired to know the origin of the Phoenix Jade Carving, so she couldn't just shoot herself in the foot now.
But she also knew, that since Ji Duoduo and Yu Qinqin were introducing this issue, it certainly wouldn't be anything good.
Seeing Yu Jingrong fall silent, the Yu Family elder sat up straight, calmly said, "Jingrong, one's pride should not be too much, once it crosses a point, it turns into foolishness, and foolishness can cause many mistakes, if you can't, don't be stubborn."
Yu Qinqin, in her rather disingenuous tone, said, "Grandfather, how could that be? Jingrong and the Young Master of Shiguang City, Mu, have a good relationship. She could ask him for help, how could he refuse to help her?"
Yu Jingrong turned her eyes to Yu Qinqin and Ji Duoduo's faces, then curled her lips mockingly.
Just then, Yu Chenxi suddenly rushed in front of Yu Jingrong and nodded vigorously at the old man, his intention was clear, he was accepting on Yu Jingrong's behalf.
Yu Jingrong reached out, pulled Yu Chenxi to her side, then addressed the old man, "Grandfather, I originally didn't want to marry Li Chengyun, nor did I want to contend with my cousin, but she's pushed it so far that apparently, I've got no reason to refuse. Regardless of whether I want to marry Li Chengyun or not, I will still try my best to acquire the Emperor Green Jade for Yu Mansion, if only for my Yu surname. If that succeeds, it's just me being lucky and finally doing my duty as a granddaughter for the Yu Family, as for whether to marry or not, we'll talk about that later. And if it doesn't work out, it wouldn't be much of a loss to me either!"
She spoke with great enthusiasm and gusto.
Instantly, it made Yu Qinqin, who was targeting her, seem incredibly petty.
Ji Duoduo appeared slightly taken aback, while the old man of the Yu family was inscrutable, leaving everyone guessing his intentions.
As for Yu Qinqin, she was so mad her lungs were about to explode. She opened her mouth wide, looking at Yu Jingrong as if wanting to swallow her whole.
The old patriarch of the Yu family didn't say anything, his piercing gaze watched her for a few moments before he gestured for her to leave with Yu Chenxi.
As soon as they stepped out of the Yu Mansion, Yu Chenxi broke away from Yu Jingrong's hand.
Yu Jingrong mused, her brother was indeed a handsome man. Even if he seemed a bit cold now, he still looked good.
She caught up with him, grinning broadly as she said, "Brother, I've missed you."
Yu Chenxi glanced at her, instinctively clenching his fist.
Yu Jingrong once again gently held Yu Chenxi's hand, swinging it back and forth.
"Are you wondering if I've been doing well?" Yu Jingrong shook her head, and said with a smile, "If you want to know, I'll tell you; I'm not doing well, not well at all. I am missing you incessantly!"
