Chapter 669: Low-Profile
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
She did not lack money. She could always earn it back. She was just being generous while placing that bet.
Seeing Qiao Xuan’s bright smile, Shao Yunduan also felt really pleased. He felt
happier now compared to the time when he knew that he was the Provincial Champion.
Shao Yunduan nodded and grinned. “Yes. I am the Provincial Champion. So, you will be Mrs. Provincial Champion from this moment on.”
Qiao Xuan blushed, and started to get a little shy. She nodded with a light smile and her eyes lit up. She could not stop smiling.
Yuezheng Xiao glanced at the couple and touched his forehead. He was the third wheel again, wasn’t he? How embarra.s.sing!
“Well, Brother Shao and Sister-in-law, you better get ready for the official messenger. I am afraid that there will be many people coming to congratulate you later today.”
“Oh yeah, we should prepare for it!”
Qiao Xuan suddenly realized what was going on. She asked Shao Yunduan and Yuezheng Xiao to stay there whilst she, alongwith Lixia and Liqiu went to make preparations.
The governmental office would come to pa.s.s on the news and offer some bonus. The partic.i.p.ants and the neighbors would also walk in to congratulate him. So, they needed to prepare tea, candies, pastries and some snacks.
They didn’t have much stuff at home, so she asked Lixia to buy them. Liqiu was asked to boil the water in the kitchen whilst Qiao Xuan had the tea and teacups ready.
Sure enough, one hour later, the governmental office delegation came over.
Shao Yunduan’s good news had already spread to the neighborhood. Lu Min and other partic.i.p.ants knew about this too. Many people came to the yard and pa.s.sed on the congratulations.
Yuezheng Xiao sent across ten pageboys and maids to help, so that they were not too busy.
Lu Min and Gu Zhiyou also made it to the next level, with Gu Zhiyou ranking the last, and Lu Min placed somewhere in the middle. But they were already very satisfied by the result, and gave the most sincere congratulations to Shao
Yunduan.
They were young and were lucky to have achieved this result.
Their future was filled with various possibilities.
They had the energy and time to advance to the next level after this.
They had been to Shao Yunduan’s home, so it was alright. But the other partic.i.p.ants came there for the first time. When they heard about the owner of the house, they were all shocked.
Some people, who were not convinced or had looked down at Shao Yunduan earlier, lost their arrogance. After all, Shao Yunduan had never spent much money on their gatherings and he was always plainly dressed.
But ordinary people could not afford a house like this in the province or have a good relations.h.i.+p with the Young Master from the Yuezheng Family.
Shao Yunduan had just been keeping a low-profile in the past.
They suddenly felt so shameful when they realized what was going on.
Amongst them, the most shocked group was the Cultivated Talents from the county.
They had heard of Shao Yunduan before, and just could not believe what they saw.
When did the Shao Family become so wealthy?
But then, Shao Yunduan was County Magistrate’s son-in-law, so it seemed reasonable that he had money.
Did it mean… Shao Yunduan and Officer Qiao did not have a bad relations.h.i.+p as per the rumor.
Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan did not like what they heard..
