A sharp gleam flowed through Bo Xian'er's eyes. "This old woman heard that you have a child?"
Here came the real point.

Xue Shiqiong's heart trembled faintly, her slender jade fingers tightening around the edge of her teacup.
She had long known that this Old Ancestor of the Chen Clan would ask about Ji Tiantian's origins, only she had not expected it to come so quickly.

As she spoke, she called to the maid outside the door. "Go invite the young miss Tiantian over. And call Xiaohua and Xiaojun here as well."
