"Haotian the Painter, were the letters I sent to the Su Clan these past few years intercepted? Why wouldn't you see me?"
Rather than catching up with Su Muqing and the others beside her, Jiang Huanhuan went straight to Li Hao, rose onto her tiptoes, and tilted her exquisite, lively little face up toward him as she asked.
The girl's fragrance washed over him, mingled with the orchid sweetness of her breath.
Before Li Hao could answer, Su Muqing's expression turned cold, and she said:
"My Su Clan would never do such a thing. I wish he'd leave instead of staying in my clan and being an eyesore!"
"Muqing."
Su Wanqing's expression shifted slightly, and she tugged at Su Muqing. With so many heavenly prodigies present, such harsh words would leave Li Hao terribly embarrassed.
Both Lin Jinrou's and Jiang Huanhuan's gazes shifted slightly as they looked at Li Hao, only to find no anger on his face.
"I've been occupied these past few years and couldn't get away. I'm sorry."
Li Hao addressed Jiang Huanhuan, turning a deaf ear to Su Muqing's words.
Seeing his response, a trace of disappointment surfaced in Jiang Huanhuan's eyes. "It's such a shame for Haotian the Painter to put up with this treatment. Wanqing told me your soul lifespan is only a hundred short years. Why not come to my Jiang Family? I'll recommend you to my father and make sure you receive our very best cultivation resources. How does that sound?"
The expressions of those beside them shifted slightly. They hadn't expected Jiang Huanhuan to promise Li Hao such tremendous benefits.
For a moment, everyone's gaze rested on Li Hao. With the Jiang Family's finest resources nurturing him, even an ordinary heavenly prodigy could join the ranks of the very best.
