Translator:Henyee TranslationsEditor:Henyee Translations

The butler respectfully opened the car door and invited Qiao Xi to get in. She did not expect to see a man in the car. That man's face was pale and looked tired. He looked like he had been sick for a long time.

With her experience, she guessed that this man did not have long to live. His eyes revealed the grayness of death.

The man did not say anything and only glanced at Qiao Xi before closing his eyes in exhaustion. Because of his illness, he did not have the energy to pay attention to anything else.

For some reason, Qiao Xi's heart ached when she saw such a weak man. Perhaps it was because her heart ached for a patient who was about to die.

The journey was very quiet. The car slowly stopped at the Situ family's residence. The butler got out of the car to open the door for the man. After Qiao Xi got out of the car, she saw a few bodyguards pushing a wheelchair over and helping the man into the wheelchair.

After standing up and taking a few steps, the man collapsed weakly in the wheelchair. Even so, the aura he exuded was still very powerful.

Miss Qiao, please, the butler said respectfully.

Only then did Qiao Xi realize that she had been staring at the man for a long time, so she apologized in embarrassment and followed the butler in.

After Qiao Xi entered, the butler instructed his subordinates, Old Master doesn't like Miss Tang Ruge. He says she's too scheming.

The Situ family's subordinates were all smart people. They immediately understood what the butler meant and turned to leave.

At this moment, Song Shiyu, who was in Qingyuan Pavilion, quickly called Gu Zheng. President, the Situ family has picked Young Madam up. It seems to be about the design.

Gu Zheng's expression froze. After thinking for a moment, he said indifferently, Alright, I understand.

In Longwan Residential, Gu Zheng was dressed neatly. He walked out of the study. Song Shijing quickly followed him. President, it's so late. Where are we going?

The Situ family.

On the other hand, Qiao Xi saw Mr. Situ Jian again. Situ Jian was gentle and elegant, but the gaze he shot at Qiao Xi carried a few more emotions. Miss Qiao, my grandfather is already waiting for you in the room.

It turned out that Old Master Situ wanted to see her. Qiao Xi had always heard that the old man was powerful when he was young. It was precisely because of his thunderous methods back then that the Situ family was able to occupy a high position in high society. His son and grandson were both extremely outstanding as well. Unfortunately, for some reason, they disappeared after becoming the head of the Situ family.

Old Master Situ's hair was white, but he was in good spirits. He was holding the porcelain vase with hollowed-out jade rings that Luo Qing made. When he saw Qiao Xi arrive, he nodded at her with a serious expression.

The Situ family was a big family with extremely strict upbringing. The successors of the family had all gone through a strict selection. In order to ensure that the family could prosper and not decline, the successors had to put in a lot of effort.

The old man had grown up in such a strict environment since he was young. Moreover, his family was filled with boys, so he naturally had to be stricter with them. When facing a young and beautiful girl like Qiao Xi, his attitude was indeed much softer. Miss Qiao.

He placed the porcelain vase with the hollowed-out jade rings on the table. The old man tried to speak as gently as possible, Miss Qiao, take a look at this invitation.

Qiao Xi lowered her eyes to take a look. It was sent by Tang Ruge.

Old Master Situ threw the invitation aside. The butler immediately understood and said respectfully, Miss Qiao, our Situ family is on good terms with many famous artists. If you want to learn, we can arrange for it at any time. Qi Zhong isn't qualified.

Miss Qiao, feel free to tell me what you want to learn. The Situ family will definitely give you the best conditions. Some people are not worthy of your status at all.

Qiao Xi had a surprised expression, then looked at Old Master Situ in confusion. What did the Situ family mean? Why did she have the feeling that Old Master Situ was afraid that she would be sad, so he was backing her up?

The butler looked at her with a smile and even brewed her some good Longjing tea. Then, he smiled and said, Master heard that you were coming, Miss Qiao, so he instructed the kitchen to make pastries and even brought out his precious Longjing tea. If you don't like it, we can prepare coffee for you.

Qiao Xi picked up the cup, and the fragrance instantly wafted into her nose. She hurriedly said, This tea is very good. There's no need to trouble yourself.

What she was puzzled about now was why Old Master Situ was so good to her.

Before she could think it through, Old Master Situ slowly said, You can choose any teacher in the art world. As long as you like someone, the Situ family will try their best to invite them over. They'll even hold a grand apprenticeship banquet for you.
