1362 Using Tea as Wine To Apologize

“Guests, please follow me to the banquet hall for the banquet.” Zhan Jianxue urged again.

“Alright.” Zhan Wuya nodded at Yu Huang and the others as he said, “The three of you, follow me to have a meal with my mentor.”

Yu Huang and the other two stood up at the same time and followed Zhan Wuya towards the banquet hall with Zhan Jianxue.

Zhan Jiuxiao was treating them to a banquet in the banquet hall of the Patriarch Manor tonight. Zhan Jiuxiao’s Patriarch Manor was built on the highest mountain in the back mountain of the inner city. It was a long distance away from the small building where Zhan Wuya lived.

On the way to the Patriarch’s residence, Zhan Jianxue walked in front. Her back view looked lonely and melancholic. Her shoulders were also drooping. Yu Huang stared at Zhan Jianxue’s back and intuitively felt that something big must have happened to Zhan Jianxue this afternoon.

However, if Zhan Jianxue refused to reveal it, it was unsuitable to ask.

When they arrived at the Patriarch’s Mansion, Yu Huang and the others were invited to the banquet hall by an honest-looking old man. “Please take a seat. The Patriarch has been delayed by something and will come later.”

Zhan Wuya told Yu Huang and the others, “This is Mr. Tai Lan, my mentor’s personal guard.” He was also the person Zhan Jiuxiao trusted the most.

To be specifically introduced by Zhan Wuya meant that Mr. Tai Lan was highly trusted by Zhan Jiuxiao.

Yu Huang and the others nodded at Mr. Tai Lan humbly and greeted, “h.e.l.lo, Sir.”

Tai Lan nodded with a smile and personally poured tea for them before leaving the banquet hall. Zhan Jianxue also wanted to leave, but Tai Lan blocked her path and said to her gently, “Miss, the Patriarch wants you to wait here. He has something to say to you.”

Zhan Jianxue’s lips quivered slightly, but in the end, she stayed.

However, Zhan Jianxue didn’t sit down. She stood by the table in a daze and it was unknown what she was thinking.

Soon, Zhan Jiuxiao arrived at the living room accompanied by Tai Lan. “I’m sorry, we were busy with trivial matters just now and came late.” The moment Zhan Jiuxiao entered the room, Yu Huang and the others stood up tacitly and greeted him. “Patriarch, there’s no need to apologize. We’ve disturbed you.”

“Everyone, sit.” Zhan Jiuxiao nodded at Tai Lan. “Serve the dishes.”

Tai Lan called for someone to pa.s.s the dishes.

When Zhan Jianxue saw that her father was here, she also came to her senses and called out to him softly. When Zhan Jiuxiao noticed her, Zhan Jianxue asked obediently, “Father, Mr. Tai Lan said that you have something to tell me.”

Nodding his head, Zhan Jiuxiao stared at Zhan Jianxue for a moment before saying earnestly, “Little Xue, at the Doomsday Battlefield, you injured Miss Yu Huang maliciously. Last time, in the intercontinental finals, Miss Yu Huang defeated you and could have chopped off one of your arms to take revenge, but on account of my reputation, she let you off. You should apologize for your mistake and ask for Miss Yu Huang’s forgiveness.”

After Zhan Jiuxiao picked up the empty cup on the table and placed it on the empty table on his left, he said, “Today is a rare opportunity. Toast her and apologize.” With that said, Zhan Jiuxiao lamented to Yu Huang in shame, “Miss Yu Huang, this girl is reckless, but she really knows her mistake now. All these years, I failed to discipline her well and spoiled her. I hope you can drink this gla.s.s of wine on account of me and let go of this grudge.”

Zhan Jiuxiao had such a humble att.i.tude, so how could Yu Huang have the cheek to say no?

Yu Huang smiled and said, “I’m pregnant, so there’s no need for wine. I’ll drink tea instead.”

Upon hearing this, Zhan Jiuxiao hurriedly congratulated her. “So you’re already pregnant. In that case, I wish you and Sect Master Sheng’s child a safe birth and that everything will be smooth sailing!” With that said, Zhan Jiuxiao raised his head slightly and glanced at Zhan Jianxue from the corner of his eye.

Zhan Jianxue stood at the side stiffly without saying a word, nor did she pour any tea to apologize.

He pursed his lips and reminded Zhan Jianxue gently, “What, Little Xue, are you still unwilling to admit your mistake?” Zhan Jiuxiao suddenly picked up the teacup in front of him. After he sized up the clear tea in the cup with interest, he suddenly said to Tai Lan, who was walking towards the dining table, “Tai Lan, this tea isn’t clear enough. Pour it out and bring another pot.”

With that, Zhan Jiuxiao poured the cup of tea on the plate.

Tai Lan hurriedly walked forward to change the tea.

Zhan Jiuxiao understood what he was hinting at.

The tea was turbid, so he had to pour it out and boil it again. If his child wasn’t outstanding enough, she had to be gotten rid of.

Zhan Jianxue’s face instantly turned pale.

She could only grit her teeth and swallow all her grievances as she replied, “Daddy, you’re right. On the Doomsday Battlefield, I was indeed unreasonable. I’ll pour tea for Madam Yu Huang and apologize now.”

After Zhan Jianxue picked up a pot of tea from the tray of the servant girl waiting beside her, she held the teapot with both hands and bent down slightly to fill the empty teacup in front of her. Then, Zhan Jianxue held the cup of tea and took a step back before bowing to Yu Huang.

A look of surprise flashed across Zhan Wuya’s eyes.

Ye Qingyang and Sheng Xiao looked at Zhan Jianxue in surprise.

When they met in front of the city wall today, Zhan Jianxue was still hostile towards Yu Huang. Why did Zhan Jianxue suddenly become so obedient and sensible in the afternoon?

Yu Huang sat on the round stool calmly.

After her gaze landed on Zhan Jianxue aloofly, she hesitated for a moment before secretly opening her mind-reading skill. Yu Huang had long broken through to the Grand Master Realm and was a Grand Master like Zhan Jianxue. Naturally, she could eavesdrop on Zhan Jianxue’s thoughts.

The moment the mind-reading skill was activated, Yu Huang could hear Zhan Jianxue say in fear, “Daddy said that if I dare to be disobedient, he doesn’t mind crippling me and nurturing a new obedient daughter. To Daddy, I’m just a pet. If he’s happy, I can live without worries and enjoy wealth and glory. If he’s angry, he doesn’t care if I live or die. The cup of tea he poured just now is the outcome of me being disobedient. I have to apologize to Yu Huang…”

Yu Huang was shocked when she heard Zhan Jianxue’s thoughts. Turned out that Prime Emperor Jiuxiao had poured the cup of tea to warn Zhan Jianxue.

If one was ruined, he would nurture another one.

Yu Huang couldn’t believe that this was what a biological father would say to his biological daughter. No matter how detestable Zhan Jianxue was, he was still Zhan Jiuxiao’s only child. How could he be so heartless?

When they met at noon today, Zhan Jiuxiao’s protective words for Zhan Jianxue revealed how much he doted on his youngest daughter. However, who knew that he actually only treated Zhan Jianxue as a dog?

Although she knew that Zhan Jianxue was hateful and not worthy of sympathy, Yu Huang still felt some sympathy for her.

Sigh.
