Chapter 171

If this continues to drag on like this…

Before long, would subduing the daughter be far off?

[Ding… Xu Feiyan's anger surges, Emotion Points +586…]

[Ding… Xu Feiyan feels a sense of loss in her heart, Emotion Points +493…]

"Whoa, Daddy is so amazing, he defeated Fifth Sister in just three seconds."

"Daddy is yyds…"

Shiqing and Hua Yi had their melon seeds and drinks ready, preparing to watch a good show.

And yet it ended so abruptly?

Recovering her wits, Xu Huayi skipped over and gave the victor, Xu Hao, a big hug.

"Fifth Sister, you lost. Starting today, you must serve tea and pour water for Daddy for a day."

Xu Shiqing walked up in front of Xu Feiyan with a smile on her face.

"We will definitely be supervising…"

"It doesn't count, it doesn't count. I refuse to accept this! He cheated, we didn't even have a real match."

Xu Hao gave a cough.

"Feiyan, we conducted this according to the competition rules. Whoever gets eliminated first loses."

"That's right, that's right, we saw it with our own eyes. Could it be that Fifth Sister, you can't afford to lose?"

Xu Huayi stepped out of Xu Hao's embrace, staring unblinkingly at Xu Feiyan.

Xu Feiyan was left speechless.

Although Xu Hao's methods were unseemly, a win is a win.

She felt that she had been careless and lost because she didn't dodge in time.

She would definitely pay attention next time.

Xu Feiyan immediately spoke up.

"Fine, I'll let you win this time. Let's have another match…"

A trace of a triumphant smile appeared in Xu Hao's eyes as he shrugged.

"It's not impossible to have another match, but I'm a bit tired today. Let's continue tomorrow."

"Fulfill your promise today first."

Xu Feiyan was so angry her teeth were itching.

Xu Hao currently looked full of Spirit, with not the slightest trace of weariness.

It was obvious he just didn't want to match against her.

He wanted to watch her serve tea and pour water for him.

So infuriating…

"Fifth Sister, a person must have integrity. Acknowledging defeat when you gamble is only right."

"Fifth Sister, what are you still standing around dazed for? Why aren't you hurrying over to pour tea for Daddy?"

The twin sisters egged her on from the side.

Xu Feiyan gave her two younger sisters a resentful glare.

She really didn't know what was wrong with these two sisters, speaking up so much for Xu Hao.

"Got it, I'm not someone who can't afford to lose, you don't need to remind me…"

Saying that through gnashed teeth, Xu Feiyan walked toward the house.

Just as she walked into the living room, she saw a figure sitting in front of the coffee table making tea.

——Xiao Wanling.

Xu Feiyan knew that she was the best friend of her third sister, Xu Hongzhuang.

In the past, she often posted photos of them in the friend group chat.

Xiao Wanling hadn't noticed her arrival and was wholeheartedly making tea.

Although whenever Xu Hao taught her the Tea Ceremony, her whole body would grow hot and her Spirit would flag.

But she had a foundation, and after so many days, she had still learned a few things.

Xiao Wanling's fingers fluttered.

Skillfully warming the cup, swirling the aroma, brewing…

Her movements were smooth as flowing water, natural and fluid.

Xu Feiyan suddenly felt it was a pleasing sight to behold.

Once Xiao Wanling finished brewing the tea, she went over and said in surprise,

"Sister Wanling, your Tea Ceremony skills are getting more and more impressive."

After walking closer, she caught a faint fragrance of tea.

Taking a deep breath, she felt her Spirit was much more refreshed.

"You are… Xu Feiyan?"

Xiao Wanling found her somewhat familiar and tentatively asked.

"Mhm, mhm."

Xu Feiyan nodded.

"When did you come back? Hongzhuang was just talking about you to me."

"Where is my Third Sister?"

Xu Feiyan looked around, searching for Xu Hongzhuang's figure.

"She's practicing singing in the study…"

Xu Feiyan suppressed the impulse to go see her Third Sister and said with keen interest,

"Sister Wanling, your Tea Ceremony is too amazing. It feels like those Tea Ceremony Great Masters are nothing in front of you…"

She frequently saw Big Sister making and drinking tea, so she had some understanding of the Tea Ceremony.

Big Sister's tea-making skills were mediocre.

But the feeling Xiao Wanling gave her was even more skilled and full of poise than those Tea Ceremony Great Masters.

If Big Sister were here, she would definitely keep Xiao Wanling by her side to make tea for her every day.

"What's so impressive about what I do?"

Xiao Wanling smiled modestly.

"You don't know about your Daddy's Tea Ceremony; that is what you call truly transcendent."

"What I've learned is merely a tiny fraction of Uncle Xu's surface skills…"

"What?"

Xu Feiyan was stunned.

A tiny fraction is already this amazing?

Could it be any more absurd?

She had once heard her Third Sister mention in the group chat that Xu Hao's Tea Ceremony level was very high.

At the time, she hadn't taken it to heart.

It was just a Tea Ceremony; how high could it possibly go?

Now she realized she was wrong.

After chatting with Xiao Wanling for a bit, Xu Feiyan went upstairs to the study.

Seeing her Third Sister once more, the two sisters exchanged a hug.

They had both grown up, and almost bounced apart.

Although the sisters talked online about calling each other traitors and kicking them out of the group chat,

it was all just joking around.

The bond between the sisters had always been very good.

"Fifth Sister, when did you get back?"

"Just now."

"Daddy should still be home. Did you see Daddy?"

Xu Hongzhuang figured that since her younger sister was back, she should let Daddy know.

Hearing her Third Sister affectionately call out the two words "Daddy" as well…
