Xiao Wan'er didn't unroll the calligraphy scroll any further. Instead, she rolled it back up and placed it in its box.
Mr. Yue Ming saw their actions clearly. He stood with his hands clasped behind his back and snorted softly.
"Miss Wan'er, now you tell this old man, was this scroll truly written by Chen Yi?"
Before Xiao Wan'er could answer, Xiaodie, standing beside her, couldn't hold back. "Eldest Miss, the Young Master really did write it! I was right there, and I even saw faint strands of fluorescent light..."
Just then, Xiao Jinghong raised a hand to cut her off. "That's enough, Xiaodie. Say no more."
After Xiaodie resentfully fell silent, she turned to the old man and gave a slight bow. "As for the origin of this scroll, the Xiao Mansion will provide Mr. Yue Ming with an answer shortly."
Mr. Yue Ming glanced at her and nodded calmly. "I shall await the good news."
With that, he turned and strode away.
