Chapter 325: Welcome To Peace Manor

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Gu Xiqiao and Jiang Shuxuan had already left the Elders Association, but all the elders were still rooted to their seats, in a state of shock.

One of them suddenly stood on his feet, slamming his hands on the table. “Great Elder, how could you let her leave like that?! I don’t want to wait until tomorrow, our family members can come out today!”

“I’ve been thoroughly shocked by her, can’t you give me some time to recover?” The great elder was clutching his heart. If he continued to hang around Gu Xiqiao, he would probably get a shock every single day of his life.

Another elder was disdainful as he said, “Being able to be startled into this state, and you still call yourself the great elder?”

“If you weren’t shocked and I was, then you could have stopped them yourself, would you have dared to?” The great elder harrumphed as he stood. “Not only have I been shocked, I also need to go recite some scriptures right now!” He looked around for the book that he needed, and really did pick up a Buddhist scripture and started reciting.

Everyone else: “…”

When Gu Xiqiao and Jiang Shuxuan had reached the Jiang residence living room, apart from Shu Chen, there was another person there. It was Mo Li.

“Brother, Miss Gu.” Mo Li was talking to Shu Chen, but she turned around to greet them with a smile when she caught sight of them.

Jiang Shuxuan couldn’t stop the furrow of his brows when his eyes landed on her, and he grasped Gu Xiqiao’s hands. “Let’s go up.”

“You go on ahead first, Brother Jiang. I’ll come up in a bit,” Gu Xiqiao replied, smiling reassuringly to him.

“Oh.” Jiang Shuxuan replied dully, turning around to head upstairs. He would turn around to look back at her every few steps before he finally disappeared from her sight.

Shu Chen’s usually calm face cracked a little at the sight of Jiang Shuxuan’s attitude. Oh my word, was this really her son?

Both Mo Li and Shu Chen were surprised by the unusual display that was Jiang Shuxuan.

 Jiang Shuxuan had always been an indifferent person, ever since he was a child. No matter what happened, it was hard for him to leak even a tiniest bit of emotion on his face. And today, they were treated to such a scene?

Shu Chen felt that she couldn’t hold it in anymore, picking up her phone to record a video immediately. She was feeling slightly proud along with being entertained. ‘So you also have days like this, wait till you get your memories back, I can’t wait to show you what you did!’

After she was done recording, she sent it to Jiang Han.

“Aunt Shu, Miss Mo Li.” Gu Xiqiao sat beside Shu Chen, the smile still on her face.

Shu Chen was pulled back into reality after her little recording stint by Gu Xiqiao’s words, and she looked towards Mo Li, who was not looking at her, but instead at Gu Xiqiao.

“Qiao Qiao, why don’t you help me make a cup of tea?” Shu Chen touched Gu Xiqiao’s head gently, her voice soft.

“Sure.” Gu Xiqiao got up from her seat, her eyes turning to Mo Li. “Miss Mo Li, would you also like one?”

“Thank you, but I’m fine.”

Gu Xiqiao nodded her head, indicating that she understood and left for the kitchen.
