Dragon Hermit

Chapter 68: Did He Ruin Them?

Yao Shigu was sitting next to a desk with a teacup placed on it. He had already refilled the cup four or five times and the tea had become quite dull. He had forgotten to replace the tea leaves!

After fifteen years, his senior brothers disciple finally showed up and this said disciple had already mastered One-Knife Schools craft. Yao Shigu had tempered his mind for so many years, yet the appearance of this man still had shaken him. He only wished to see what kind of sculpture his martial nephew, the young Headmaster of One-Knife School, would craft.

I really cant accept this, why is the disparity between people so great? Yao Shigu stood up and paced around in the study room. He couldnt help but mutter to himself, I have always diverted my attention to antiques and business, but I have still practiced for dozens of years. Lil Yan has only passed the universitys entrance exam recently, and he has only practiced for ten years, yet he mastered the craft. Is his perception so outstanding?

Yao Shigu picked up the sculpture of a tiger descending the mountain, and appreciation appeared on his old face.

At this moment, the old man heard the sound of high-heels tapping on the staircase and he couldnt help but reveal a smile. He was waiting for his eldest granddaughter to knock on his door, yet he heard instead someone knocking heavily on the robust metallic anti-theft door of the workroom opposite him.

Xia Yan, come out!

Yao Min got the name of Han Yidaos disciple from her little sister and she also learned that he was in the workroom. This was why she went upstairs and knocked on the door heavily.

In the workroom, Xia Yans meditation got interrupted and he took out his phone to look at the time and he discovered that it was already past 11 am. He didnt waste a lot of time on crafting the three sculptures on the table, and it was his long meditation that lasted two hours.

Someone was still knocking on the door heavily, and Xia Yan couldnt help but reveal a confused look. [My Martial Uncle and Yao Ting wont bother me. So, is the woman outside my Martial Uncles eldest granddaughter?]

This guy still didnt open the door. Yao Min knocked on the door heavily and spoke out of displeasure, He dares to lock the door in other peoples house. Hes too disrespectful. Is this guy trying to steal stuff from Grandpas workroom?

Sis, dont shoot your mouth off, Xia Yan isnt such a despicable person. Yao Ting quickly tried to cover her sisters mouth with her hand.

Go away! Yao Min blocked her younger sisters hand. This is this guys first visit. So, why are you speaking for him? Did he beguile you?

Yao Min, you are shooting your mouth off again! Yao Tings face got flushed and she spoke indignantly.

Lil Min, why are you making a fuss? The study rooms door got opened and Yao Shigu walked out of it.

Grandpa, I will teach this guy a lesson! He unexpectedly dared to make you kneel to him, he has gone too far overboard! Yao Min shouted.

Lil Min, its I who Yao Shigu revealed a wry smile and was about to explain everything to her, but the workrooms door got opened. Xia Yan was standing at the door and looking in confusion at Yao Min.

Lil Yan, did she bother you? Yao Shigus expression turned grave. It would have been a great pity If Lil Yans artwork got some deficits because of his granddaughters ruckus.

Nope, Martial Uncle. I have just finished work and was only resting, Xia Yan explained and looked at Yao Min. He said with a smile, Miss Min, hello, Im Xia Yan.

How do you know my name? Yao Min glared at him with malice.

Sis, its I who told him your name, Yao Ting could only smile wryly. Her big sister always cherished her words like gold and got nicknamed an ice beauty by people and few people knew of her other character at home. She was basically a willful and insensible little girl. This might have been because she felt safe at home and didnt have to hide her true character.

Did you finish carving the sculpture? Delight appeared on Yao Shigus face and he walked into the room. He said, Let me have a look at it Did you carve three sculptures?

In this brightly lit room, Yao Shigu noticed with a glance the three objects placed atop the workbench and he cried out in surprise.

Thats right, Martial Uncle, I forgot to notify you in advance and used up a piece of white nephrite and yellowstone without your permission, Xia Yan apologized.

It doesnt matter, I have already told you to use whatever you want and take this store for your second home. You dont have to be so reserved! Anger didnt appear on Yao Shigus face. Instead, surprise and shock were apparent on his face. He rushed into the workroom eagerly because he wanted to see what kinds of sculptures Xia Yan had made in this short period.

The anger of Yao Min, who was standing outside, still didnt die off. Or rather, she resented Xia Yan a lot more than before.

Did you use the white nephrite and yellowstone on the second shelf on the right side of the room? Yao Min followed Yao Shigu into the room and looked at the shelf on the right side. She couldnt help but get angrier.

Those were my birthday gifts for Grandpa last year! Yao Min wished to cry but couldnt shed any tears. You have ruined them, this is outrageous!

Miss Min, I didnt know this. Xia Yan said inwardly, [This is awful! How could I know this? What a twist of fate!]

Yao Ting quickly tried to soothe her sister. Sis, calm down, Xia Yans handcraft is pretty exceptional and he surely didnt ruin them.

You still have the face to say he didnt ruin them? Yao Mins chest heaved up intensely and she looked resentfully at Xia Yan. He had carved three sculptures in succession in less than half a day. Which great master is so quick and swift? Jade stones and yellowstones are so hard, do you know how much time is needed to process them? Is it possible to finish carving them in such a short period?

This is Yao Ting was left at a loss for words. Even though she didnt officially study the carving craft with her grandpa, she still heard a lot about it in the past years and she knew that it was very difficult to carve jade, yet Xia Yan had carved three sculptures in a single morning. He was too quick, and one couldnt help but suspect that he had done a half-assed job.

Lil Yan How did you pull this off? Yao Shigu suddenly spoke in a trembling voice that didnt befit an old man at his age.

Sure enough, he has wasted my white nephrite and yellowstone Ah! Yao Min forgot for a moment that she wore high-heels and stamped the ground. She lost her balance and couldnt help but cry out.

Sis, be careful! Yao Ting was startled and she tried to hold her, but she didnt manage to catch her.

You should be careful! Yao Min had fallen toward Xia Yan. The latter sniffed a sweet fragrance and he couldnt help but reach out with his hand to catch Xia Yan. His hand got hold of something soft, yet hard at the same time, and his fingers sunk in something soft.

This was the first time he had such a marvelous experience, even though he got to touch An Xiaorus butt last time when he held her in his arms, and he found it quite enjoyable, but this was a completely different feel.

She was softer, and more enjoyable. He really didnt want to let go of her!

[Oh by the way, is this hard part her bra?] Xia Yan recalled some common knowledge about women and couldnt help but sigh. This bra couldnt hold Miss Mins ample chest.

While Xia Yan was lost in his imaginations, he suddenly felt a sharp pain from the back of his hand and he couldnt help but raise his head. Yao Mins face was flushed and her eyes were raging with anger, while her right hands short fingernails were digging into him.

As for Yao Ting, she was dumbstruck and she looked in shock at Xia Yan who held her sisters ample chest.

Xia Yan finally came back to his senses and he pulled back his hand quickly, while Yao Ting went to support her sister. They were all left at a loss for words!

Even though Yao Min was angry, she couldnt lash out at Xia Yan because he had only tried to help her and didnt do it deliberately.

After this awkward episode, Yao Min calmed down. But, she still looked resentfully at Xia Yan and said, This isnt the end!
