Rebirth of a Villainess 123 Banquet 9

Chao Yikun could not hold back from roaring in laughter, the young disciple held onto his sides with his head down which quivered from the sidesplitting words that came out of Xu Hui's mouth.

"I..I..I'm sor..ry Lady Li...I..wasn't...maki..ng fun..of you!"

Xu Hui's eyes danced in mirth when she saw the way Chao Yikun fought to keep his laughter under control, the face of Fu Zian became dark when from what he heard from Xu Hui.

"I'm not going to any other place after the meeting with Sect Leader Li!"

There was a sour note in the voice of the senior disciple, to him it was like they presumed that on a normal day he didn't dress up as good as today.

"You don't need to get riled up, I was only saying that you look fascinating."

"I look fascinating?!"

It was as if Xu Hui had poured salt on his wound, the senior disciple didn't take too well with what could have turned out to be a compliment.

"Senior Fu! Lady Li was only commending you for taking extra care of your appearance!"

Instead of making it better, Chao Yikun's words made the situation much worse.

"That's enough, I don't need to hear anymore from you!"Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

Seething with anger, Fu Zian turned around and began walking ahead of the others. Xu Hui, Chao Yikun and Ju Ruoxia steadily followed behind him.

At the front of the hall of foresight, the four of them stood outside as Fu Zian announced their presence to the sect leader of YuanLi sect. It was a proud structure of white and silver purple with intricate lamp stands, fine hardwood floors with tassels of delicate needlework and draperies that hung high up.

The courtyard that led into the hall of foresight held rows of manificient tall trees whose flowers bore sweet smelling scent carried by the air that blew around the place. 

"Sect Leader Li! Fu Zian is here to see you. I have Lady Li and her maid, Chao Yikun with me!"

"You may enter!"

All four walked into the grand hall where Li Guoliang sat with the letter resting on his desk.

"Father!"

"Jiao'er!" 

Xu Hui's smiled very warmly at Li Jiao's father, who got up from where he sat to hold his daughter by the hand. The lines on the brows of Li Guoliang disappeared on seeing his child before him. Leading her by the hand, the sect leader guided his daughter to take a seat by his desk, before returning to his seat.

Fu Zian's eyes followed the father and daughter, his heart clenched painfully knowing that one day his sect leader may have to face the truth about his daughter.

"You can all sit! You may wait outside!"

What Li Guoliang meant was that, Fu Zian, Chao Yikun could sit at his desk, while Ju Ruoxia the maid of his daughter was to remain outside the hall.

Without saying a word, the headmaid bowed and left the room. At this point, Li Guoliang then revealed the purpose why he summoned the three of them to the hall of foresight.

"Now, to why I brought you all here. I received a letter from Sect Leader Jin to attend a banquet at the hall of glaze, since I don't want to go, Fu Zian I want both you and Jiao'er to go in my place."

"So, this is the reason why sect leader called for us!Hmm.."

Fu Zian's gaze remained steady as the thought ran through his mind while looking at his sect leader.
