Chapter 1183: She Had a Mother Named Mo Yunyao
In the past few years, the wealthy families in the Capital City had been getting involved in flowers, and flower arrangement had become a compulsory course for noble girls. She had previously worked hard on flower arrangements. Among her peers of the same age, she was confident that she was the best.
However, the high society of Harbor City did not have an interest in this. On the contrary, it was very popular to make flower tea, binding tea leaves and dried flowers into a fragrant bundle for drinking. It was not only elegant but also very interesting.
After she became the heir of the Li family, she studied hard in order to enter the elite society of Harbor City. She was gifted and diligent. In just a few months, she was better than most girls.
With her exquisite skills in making flower tea, she successfully entered the woman’s circle in the high society and set her place there.
Unlike the Capital City, Harbor City did not have the mentality passed down from the pioneers of China. In the high society of Harbor City, illegitimate children and those out of wedlock were common. There were many illegitimate children who inherited the family business as well and nobody would look down on them for this reason. After she returned to the Li family, she did not have a hard time like Wen Xinya, who was ostracized, criticized and scorned due to her past.
Everyone did not care about her identity. Instead, many flattered her since she was the only bloodline of the Li family.
See, no matter where she was, she was more fortunate than Wen Xinya, and had more advantages.
God still preferred Xia Ruya.
Wen Xinya was just a supporting role in her life.
Xia Ruya, with her smooth and beautiful movements, brewed a cup of rose tea elegantly. In the teacup, the gorgeous petals bloomed. It was extremely beautiful.
She handed the tea to Yan Menglu and said, “Don’t you have to go to class today, why do you have time to come find me?”
The schedule for the Jewelry Design department during this time was always tight. Yan Menglu was constantly busy.
Yan Menglu took the teacup and scrunched her face. “But it’s just a basic course. I’ve learned it before. What else can I learn?”
She started to study jewelry design at the age of twelve. She had already learned the basic courses. After school started, she took the class seriously, just to attract the attention of Teacher Ji and give her a good impression. No one in class could match her when it came to talent. As long as she performed well, Teacher Ji would definitely choose her to be her student.
However, she never thought that Teacher Ji would choose Wen Xinya.
Starting today, Wen Xinya did not have to come to school and would be taught by Teacher Ji. In this case, she did not need to continue to take the class seriously.
The corner of Xia Ruya’s lips revealed a proper smile, soft, elegant and beautiful. “Although it is only a basic course, the Department of Jewelry Design of Capital University is famous in the world, and it is definitely superior.”
Her consolation was gentle and warm. Only a sincere friend like her would be so considerate.
Yan Menglu placed her teacup on the coffee table with some annoyance and sniffed. “I used to be like you. I thought that Capital University is so famous, so it should be definitely good. But after this period of time, I feel that Capital University is just good in name only.”
The mentors invited by the Yan family to teach her were world-renowned jewelry design masters. Their teachings were as good as that of Capital University and her jewelry design talents were recognized by them. It was Ji Shihan that old woman’s loss for not taking in a gem like her.
Xia Ruya asked curiously, “Lulu, what makes you say this?”
Xia Ruya knew that the substitute teacher in Wen Xinya’s class was the reputable Ji Shihan. There was nobody who had not heard of her. Naturally, when she found out that Ji Shihan had selected Wen Xinya to be her student, Yan Menglu was very upset.
Yan Menglu said a little irritably, “Since you are acquainted with Wen Xinya, you should know about her. Tell me honestly, what do you think about Wen Xinya’s jewelry design talents?”
The reason why she came thousands of miles to Capital City to study was because of Ji Shihan. She spent a lot of effort to get into Ji Shihan’s class. Who knew that Wen Xinya would take away her place halfway through, making her suffer like this. Her efforts were all in vain. How could she accept this?
Xia Ruya thought about it and answered, “I don’t know anything about Wen Xinya’s jewelry design talent. I have known Wen Xinya for three years and have never heard of it. However, your design talent is extraordinary.”
She really had no idea that Wen Xinya was gifted in jewelry design talent. However, she did not think that people were just trying to flatter Wen Xinya. She must have had hidden this in the past.
Xia Ruya’s remarks sounded a little provoking, but she also complimented Yan Menglu. After listening to her, Yan Menglu said, “If that’s the case, why did Teacher Ji Shihan actually choose Wen Xinya as her student?
She obviously felt that she was better than Wen Xinya. However, she was not chosen to become Ji Shihan’s student, which made her furious.
Xia Ruya’s fair fingers gently tapped the porcelain cup. It was a delicate and beautiful white porcelain bowl. It’s milky white surface reflected a pale bright glow. It was clean without any flaws, and looked as elegant as nature. The beautiful gold decorations at the side made it look even nobler. It was the national flower peony which was resplendent.
Yan Menglu said indignantly, “I think I don’t lose to Wen Xinya in any way. My family, appearance, and manners are all better than Wen Xinya’s. How can she even compete with me? She must have pulled some strings to have won Teacher Ji Shihan’s favor.”
Except for this, Yan Menglu could not think of any other reason. She must have done so… Otherwise, she would never have lost to Wen Xinya.
Xia Ruya glanced at the teacup. The fresh jasmine in the cup floated on the water elegantly. She said, “Lulu, I think you do not have a clear idea about Wen Xinya’s family background!”
When people brew flower tea, the tea leaves would always sink after a while. However, her flowers would never sink when she brew them. Such skill would not lose even to Wen Xinya’s brewing skills.
Yan Menglu scorned. “Isn’t Wen Xinya the great successor of the Wen family? What other background does she have that can be compared to the Yan family?”
Xia Ruya laughed. “The Wen family can never compare to your family, but she has an amazing mother called Mo Yunyao.”
