1264 The Amazing Porcelain Condor

Xia Yunlou was burning with anger. “Bastard! She’ll definitely embarrass the Xia family if she shows a fake! How did I give birth to such a little b*tch?! Mengyan, you’re just too kind. You’re willing to give her a chance to turn over a new leaf, but I think we should forget it. If she’s unwilling to repent, let her be. She’ll be the one whose reputation will be ruined in the end. If she’s lucky, no one will be able to tell. But if she’s exposed in public, I want to see how she’ll face it!”

“Aunt, Xi Xi is your daughter, after all.” Xia Mengyan looked helpless.

“Why do you care so much?! If she’s exposed, I’ll publicly announce that I’m cutting ties with her. She’s not worthy to be my daughter. I’ve long wanted to do this!” Xia Yunlou said mercilessly, a trace of disgust appearing in her eyes.

Xia Mengyan and Xia Ji looked at each other and revealed sinister smiles.

!!

The opening ceremony went very smoothly. After the ribbon-cutting ceremony, it was time to showcase the gift. No one cared about the previous gifts. So what if they were valuable? Could they be more meaningful than the Luo family’s porcelain sculpture?

The Luo family of Xuan Island was mysterious and powerful. The young master of the Luo family had personally given the porcelain sculpture. This meant that the Luo family valued the Xia family very much. With the Luo family’s protection, the Xia family would forever be able to gain a foothold in Li City.

Everyone wanted to build a relationship with the Luo family, but the Luo family was elusive. Now that they knew that the Xia family and the Luo family were close, they naturally came to curry favor with the Xia family.

Xia Cheng glanced at Xia Mengyan before his gaze finally landed on Qiao Xi. “Xi Xi, show the porcelain sculpture to everyone.”

The gazes of everyone descended on Qiao Xi in succession. She had become the center of attention.

It was an ordinary opening ceremony, but the surroundings were filled with people. Other than the invited guests, there were also reporters from various places and a group of Xia Mengyan’s brainless fans. The Xia family used the Luo family’s power to attract many people to come and watch the spectacle. Everyone looked at Qiao Xi expectantly and quietly waited for her to take out the porcelain sculpture.

Hearing Xia Cheng’s words, Qiao Xi only smiled lightly. “Chairman Xia, are you sure you want to see it?”

Xia Cheng frowned unhappily. “Hurry up and take it out! What are you waiting for?! Don’t tell me you didn’t bring the porcelain sculpture with you when I handed such an important task to you?”

Qiao Xi snorted coldly and took out an ordinary-looking box from her bag. “This is what you’re asking to see. If anything happens later, don’t blame me. This is your choice.”

At this point, it was time to settle the score with the Xia family. It was just that she did not know if they could handle it!

When he heard this, Xia Cheng only felt a chill run down his spine. What did Qiao Xi mean by these words? She seemed to be warning him, giving him an uneasy feeling.

Thinking about it carefully, Qiao Xi was just a girl. What could she do? Moreover, everyone was waiting. If she could not take out the porcelain sculpture, the Xia family would lose their reputation as well.

He berated unhappily, “What nonsense are you talking about?! Hurry up and take it out!”

Qiao Xi raised her eyes, and her gloomy gaze landed on him. It was like she was looking at someone who was about to die, and it carried a trace of pity and ridicule.

She placed the box on the tray, and everyone hurriedly looked up. A very ordinary-looking small box appeared on the big screen. As she slowly opened it, the smile on Xia Mengyan’s face grew wider. She stared at the box until a purple porcelain sculpture was revealed.

The purple porcelain sculpture was glowing with a crystal clear light. The patterns carved on it were complicated. Actually, porcelain made of this material was not suitable for such complicated patterns. Moreover, some parts were hollow. As this material was too brittle, if any mistake was made, the entire work would be ruined. Hence, ordinary craftsmen would not choose porcelain made of this material to carve.

However, now that this purple porcelain sculpture had appeared in front of everyone, it emitted a purple glow under the sunlight. Upon closer inspection, there seemed to be the shadow of quicksand.

The entire venue was in an uproar.

“As expected of a porcelain piece personally carved by Young Master Luo. Only the Luo family can complete such a piece!”

“Although the Luo family only agreed to collaborate because of Xia Yunqiu, if it weren’t for Miss Qiao, I’m afraid the Luo family wouldn’t have given the Xia family such a valuable gift.”

Xia Mengyan’s face was ashen. She did not expect that Qiao Xi would have the ability to find such a stunning porcelain sculpture. Thinking carefully, she was Mrs. Gu. With Gu Zheng’s power and wealth, what could she not buy?

However, no matter how good this sculpture was, it was not a porcelain sculpture given by the Luo family!
