C148 Accident
Su Xiaoxiao squatted in front of the orchid and gently touched its leaves with her hand.
The orchid was expensive and pretentious.
If it was not taken care of well, its leaves would turn yellow and even wilt.
Thus, it became a treasure for the wealthy to nourish their bodies.
Su Xiaoxiao saw that these words were not bad. It was estimated to be at least a few hundred thousand.
It was an income that an ordinary family would not be able to achieve even if they worked hard for a year.
Such an expensive pot of orchids, just like that, was openly placed here as an ornament? Su Xiaoxiao was simply worried for it, worried that someone might accidentally knock it over.
"Beautiful big brother, this pot of flowers also belongs to grandpa. He didn't even let Xiaoxiao touch it."
Su Xiaoxiao gently poked its leaves with her hand, then raised her head and smiled at Qi Jincheng.
This was also an explanation for why she could recognize this flower.
Qi Jincheng had paid attention to his career in his early years, and then he was obsessed with revenge. He took every step he took and studied it with painstaking effort. In his three or four years of life, he did not have the extra time to indulge in flowers and plants.
Therefore, his understanding of this plate of orchids only existed in recognizing its name.
He took his hand out of Su Xiaoxiao's hand, frowned, and looked around. In the end, he chose a secluded corner to rest in. He would not be disturbed.
Su Xiaoxiao quietly observed Qi Jincheng and found that he was almost disgusted by this kind of situation.
From this, it could be seen how tolerant he was towards her.
Su Xiaoxiao had always known how to be grateful. Since he was willing to accompany her to waste time, he would not let her come in vain.
Pretending to lower her head to study the orchids, Su Xiaoxiao's eyes were looking around.
She was confirming the location of Old Master Qi, Qi Hanyi, Su Miaomiao, and her family.
After thinking for a moment, Su Xiaoxiao turned her head and quietly looked at where Qi Jincheng was.
Seeing that he did not notice her, she carefully used the building to hide her figure and quietly moved closer to where Old Master Qi was.
During this time, Su Xiaoxiao's hand was holding her skirt to make it convenient for her to move.
At this time, Old Master Qi was talking to someone and did not notice Su Xiaoxiao approaching. She quietly took a detour behind Old Master Qi, then suddenly appeared and used her hand to hold the old man's arm.
The old man was shocked when his arm was suddenly hugged by someone.
When he saw that the person holding his arm was Su Xiaoxiao, his expression gradually eased up.
"Xiaoxiao, why don't you go play with everyone?"
Old Master Qi was referring to those young ladies who were of the same age as her.
This time, taking advantage of the engagement banquet between Qi Jincheng and Su Xiaoxiao, he deliberately invited a lot of young ladies of appropriate age to choose a suitable wife for Qi Hanyi.
In his opinion, the second young lady of Su family, Su Miaomiao, was not worthy of his grandson.
Although Qi Hanyi's background was not very honorable, he was after all a man of Qi family, and his business skills were outstanding. If nothing unexpected happened, he would replace Qi Jincheng and become the future heir of Qi family's property.
How could such an outstanding person decide on an undisciplined Su Miaomiao like this?
This was the reason why he sent Su Miaomiao away and called Qi Hanyi over.
"Grandfather, I just saw a pot of flowers over there. They are so beautiful."
Su Xiaoxiao smiled very shyly.
After Old Master Qi heard it, he could tell what Su Xiaoxiao meant.
He smiled helplessly and rubbed her little nose lovingly. "You lass, are you interested in my Jun Zi Lan over there?"
That pot of flower was a new treasure that Old Master Qi had obtained. It was very expensive.
He was worried that the servants would accidentally knock her over, so he brought it wherever he went. He did not expect that the moment he brought it over, it would be targeted by Su Xiaoxiao, this little ghost spirit.
Being seen through by Old Master Qi with a glance, Su Xiaoxiao felt even more embarrassed.
The smile on her face deepened, and her large eyes pitifully stared at him, like a puppy that was asking for food.
No matter who saw it, they could not bear to reject him.
Old Master Qi helplessly smiled, and very generously raised his hand. "It's rare for us, Xiaoxiao, to ask for something from Grandfather. Forget it, forget it. It's just a pot of flower. I'll let you take it away."
When Su Xiaoxiao heard this, her eyes immediately lit up.
With the item in hand, Su Xiaoxiao did not waste any more time here. After lightly hugging the old man, she left the middle of this group of people.
The people who were originally chatting with the old man were currently trying their best to recover from their shock.
They had long discovered the Jun Zi Lan that the old man had moved over.
The basin that Su Xiaoxiao had asked him for was one of the more expensive varieties. Its price was even comparable to a villa in the downtown area.
It was a very valuable item.
However, the old man did not even blink. He waved his hand and gave it to Su Xiaoxiao, who was not related to him by blood.
Why was that?
Many people could not understand.
In fact, they quickly reevaluated Su Xiaoxiao's position in their hearts.
She had a very high position in the old man's heart.
Su Xiaoxiao got a pot of orchids and was in a good mood.
Her steps were very light and she even softly sang the hometown tune that her grandmother often sang for her.
This scene was coincidentally seen by Su Miaomiao at the side.
Su Miaomiao had long heard from her mother Deng Wan about the preciousness of that pot of flowers. When she moved, she was like everyone else, deliberately staying far away from that place, afraid that it would cause people to hate it if it was knocked over.
However, Old Master Qi did not even think about giving such a pot of expensive flowers to Su Xiaoxiao.
In her opinion, this was the special preference that the Qi family person had for her.
They were both Su Haisheng's daughters.
However, no matter what Su Xiaoxiao did, she would be loved and treated differently by the two elders. However, if she did it, she would be hated by them.
She did not understand why.1
She even felt strangely angry.
Su Miaomiao had been instilled with the idea of competing since she was young by Deng Wan.
In her words, he was better than Lan Yan's daughter in every aspect, whether it was in terms of appearance, temperament, or the environment she grew up in.
Since she was young, she had to study hard and dress up seriously. When other children gathered together to play, she had to learn piano. Before she graduated from college, her piano skills had already exceeded level eight.
But such high honor could not compare to the painting skills of the three-legged cat that the silly girl had learned from her grandfather.
Was this world fair?
In her opinion, it wasn't fair!
Jealousy caused her to gradually lose her mind.
Su Miaomiao moved her feet. She observed her surroundings as she moved forward, trying to get closer to Old Master Qi's bowl of expensive orchids.
Su Xiaoxiao was currently immersed in joy and did not notice Su Miaomiao's small movements as she approached.
However, the two of them did not notice that at the same time, Qi Jincheng suddenly turned his head to look at Su Xiaoxiao.
