Jiang Shuxuan hooked the last button, and lowered his eyes. The deep obsidian eyes were void of emotion, his figure tall and slender, and his back straight. He raised his eyes, and coldly said, “Get out.”
Jiang Tong stood in the same spot, pursing her lips while looking at him. She refused to move.
She wasn’t tall, and her figure was petite and thin, it was hard to imagine that such a small girl held a strong power in her body. She stubbornly stayed where she was, opening her mouth to ask, “I said, you’re obviously here, why won’t you meet with me?”
It seemed that she had started to rarely see him since the beginning of this year. Last time, it was difficult enough to get the news that he had returned to the Jiang family house. She had called the Jiang family house right after she exited the trial tower, but he never took the call. And now, she had broken away from her reserved and aloof mask, rushing over here from the ancient martial arts world, and he still wanted to avoid seeing her?
Why wouldn’t he want to see her? Jiang Tong didn’t understand. There were so many other people in the ancient martial arts world that yearned for her, and she was now at his side, but he didn’t want her.
Seeing that she was not leaving, Jiang Shuxuan didn’t bother saying anything further. He rolled up his sleeves and walked out the door in big strides, heading for the entrance. His face looked like a perfect expression that was carved from marble, only it was too cold and stiff which made others not dare to look at him directly.
“Jiang Shuxuan!” Jiang Tong had seen Jiang Shuxuan ignore her, and she reached out to grab his wrist. Before she managed to touch him, pain shot up her hands. She snatched her hand back and took a step back, looking at him with an incredulous expression on her face. There was even a hint of tears flickering in her bright, clear eyes.
Jiang Shuxuan ignored Jiang Tong and strode downstairs. A crowd of people had already started gathering outside the Jiang house. When the crowd saw Jiang Shuxuan, they all straightened up higher. Although they were standing in a uniform manner, there was no hiding the fanatical worship that gleamed in their eyes when they looked at the man.
A girl soon walked out after him from the house, she was pretty and young, attracting the attention of the gathered people outside once again.
They all knew who Jiang Tong was without any introduction.
The Jiang branch families were never placed in high regards in terms of talents, and they were normally engaged to deal with the more complicated matters on the outside. No one expected a monster like Jiang Tong to appear from nowhere suddenly, defeating all the other people in the same generation as her in her first family competition. She then went on to be promoted and entered into the Youth Ranking List which took place once every three years.
Her strength was publicly recognized, and she was also the girl that was closest to Jiang Shuxuan’s power.
“Miaoxue, look at that smug look on Jiang Tong’s face!”
Murong Miaoxue was dressed in her usual fiery red dress, her face beautiful and fair, only the arrogance that was usually on her face was absent.
Hearing the words from the people around her, Murong Miaoxue’s lips curled up slightly. She looked towards the two people, although they were walking together, Jiang Shuxuan and Jiang Tong were separated by a distance of at least one meter. Back then, she was only filled with jealousy, seeing Jiang Tong being able to stay by Jiang Shuxuan’s side all the time, and had never noticed this distance between them. Jiang Tong had never appeared any closer than one meter to Jiang Shuxuan!
