128 Chapter 128- Collecting Debts 1

"so I won't have to say you were the one that got away....

the one that got away..."

A shadow figure leaned smiling at a corner right beside the living room. He witnessed and heard how the girl was playing the harp just now.

He can't hide the admiration in his eyes.

Even the mermaids and nymphs would envy her voice. Yet after all these years, everyone thought that the big miss of the Jing Clan is a mute?

When she played the harp just now, the nobleman can't help but to be mesmerized. He's really looking forward for the other things that his little wife to be has to offer.

After he heard her sing and saw that an old man is coming towards the living area, he decided to leave. It is quite risky to stay there with the old man around. After all, in this household, only that man is able to sense his presence even in the dark.

I'll come again, interesting little creature. The he disappeared.

But little did he know that the moment he left, a pair of eyes laid on the corner where he recently hide. The girl smirked and brushed it off.

"Xian'er…now that you can speak, do you want to enroll in the school for women? Or would you like to---"

"Father, I would like to take a rest first for couple of weeks before engaging myself outside. I'm not that knowledgeable in medicine but somehow, I feel that, when I fell from the tree, I lost bits of my memory. And besides, I would need to adjust my vocals. I'm afraid that my ability to speak has its limit…" Jingxian said as she placed her teacup on the table.

"What more…there is a matter in this house that I need to attend to before I go outside…" she said. A dangerous glint flashes before her eyes.

The elders were shocked upon hearing her claim.

"A matter regarding the Jing Household?" Madam Tian frowned.

"En." Jingxian said coldly as all the faces dimmed upon hearing her reply.
