Chapter 78
Chapter 78: Request
Xu Weiran’s arrangement was disrupted by Xiao Susu due to her exceptional talent .
The flower crown would definitely go to the Xiao family . Hua Qianzi wasn’t able to gain attention in the last competition and lost to Xiao Susu because the verse Xiao Susu chose was something that others would not be able to respond to even if they racked their brains like crazy .
The flower crown for the men also went to the Xiao family, obtained by Xiao En .
The Xiao family once again became the focal point of Cloud City .
Just as Xiao Mi had once done, this generation once again stunned the public .
Xiao Mi had made her name through her exceptional talent in martial arts, but Xiao En and Xiao Susu had made their names through their display of cultural talent .
Lei Yufeng was the most taciturn one today . He looked towards the stage at Xiao Susu who was wearing the flower crown, his eyes filled with determined light .
He didn’t view anyone present as a threat .
Actually, every time he saw Xiao Susu, he couldn’t help but recall a different woman .
Su Qiqi—who had died under Mo Wenchen’s blade . Back then, his heart had ached when he saw her resolutely jump down into the abyss .
Even now when he recalled it, his heart would still ache slightly .
Xiao Susu was shining brightly . She was aloof and remote, but her smile contained traces of loneliness and her eyes were also a little dim .
Although she was doing her best to cover it up, these little things didn’t escape Lei Yufeng’s eyes .
It was those aspects that made him recall Su Qiqi .
He was thinking that Su Qiqi was also probably this talented . It was just a pity that she was born in the Su residence and became Su Mengru’s younger sister .
Otherwise, she probably would’ve also been this dazzling .
At the very least, her talents were gradually revealed in the Marquis of Nord’s residence . Mo Wenchen had also appreciated her talents a lot .
Sometimes he would wonder if he had been wrong in making that bet with Mo Wenchen back then .
“Guess what Xu Weiran would do?” Hua Ruxue was currently smiling charmingly towards Lei Yufeng . Although their talk hadn’t ended on a good note that day, there was no way Hua Ruxue would become cold towards Lei Yufeng just because of that .
She had also given him a reply . If your methods were strong enough, then she would cupped her fist politely and let go of Xiao Susu .
Originally, she wanted to bind Lei Yufeng with Hua Qianzi, but she could see things clearly . This master of the Lei Clan Stronghold hadn’t even bothered to glance at Hua Qianzi since her appearance yesterday .
Even if she was an extremely beautiful woman, Lei Yufeng had no interest in her .
Hua Ruxue was very disappointed when she saw this .
However, there was still Xiao Susu . She didn’t actually plan to have Xiao Susu do anything . It was enough if her existence would cause a conflict between Unyielding Clouds Nation and Serene Chaste Nation .
She also knew that due to Xiao Mi’s current strength, she still could not be without the Xiao family .
The reason she had agreed to Baili Mo breaking off the marriage was because Xiao Susu truly had been a fool back then . She knew that the Xiao family wouldn’t do anything in response to this matter .
However, things were different now . Xiao Susu had actually managed to become a talented noblewoman that won the admiration of thousands .
Had she known earlier that Xiao Susu was this talented, she might’ve canceled the engagement a long time ago .
Back then, Hua Ruxue had almost been secretly killed by her sisters . The reason why she had sent her own daughter to great Yan was because she was making efficient use of everything and everyone by her side .
That included Xiao Susu .
From the first day of Jasper Flower Banquet, she had been trying to figure out how she’d be able to use this girl .
Although Xiao Susu’s delicate figure and looks weren’t admired in Hundred Flowers Nation, she would count as a top quality beauty in great Yan, Unyielding Clouds Nation, and Serene Chaste Nation .
It only took one night for Hua Ruxue’s hopes towards the Xiao family to reignite .
She knew what Xiao Susu needed .
And who was Lei Yufeng? He naturally knew what this crafty woman was planning after their conversation yesterday night . That was why he didn’t make any moves today .
