A virtual princess? She's a real princess!

Chapter 317 Jade Screen

"Where's Phil? Isn't he out gallivanting around with Della?" Norris asked the butler beside him, smiling as he watched his daughter's retreating figure.

"Young Master is in his bedroom," the butler replied.

Norris nodded. "Get the shooting range ready. Della's hiring some people to shoot the day after tomorrow."

"Everything is ready, sir." The butler followed Norris through the villa gate.

After Bian Xiao finished working on the photos, he brought Nuan Nuan into the house. "Is her room ready?"

"Everything is ready. Miss Kanford is waiting for you inside with jewelry." The maid helped carry Nuannuan as she walked beside her.

"Oh, then I'll go take a look first." Bian Xiao turned a corner.

"Miss Della," Rachel stood up when she saw Bian Xiao, smiling. She changed out of her riding clothes and put on a gray suit with high heels. Her brown hair reached her shoulders, exuding both sophistication and approachability, giving Bian Xiao a warm and welcoming feeling.

"Rachel, please sit down. Let them demonstrate," Bian Xiao said to Rachel, who was standing beside him, bending down to explain.

“Okay, Miss Della.” Rachel knew the lady’s personality after spending some time with Bian Xiao, so she obediently sat down next to her, leaned forward slightly, and introduced herself to Bian Xiao one by one.

"Miss, the master said someone sent a gift, a jade screen. He would like you to take a look at it, and it will be sent to China afterward." The maid knelt down beside Bian Xiao, leaned down and whispered in his ear, "Should we look at it here or somewhere else?"

"Who sent it?" Bian Xiao asked, puzzled.

"The master didn't say anything, he just told Miss to accept it without worry and to put it wherever she likes."

Bian Xiao nodded. "Just bring it up so I can take a look."

Upon hearing this, the maid went downstairs to inform them.

This gift was from Tirard. Norris was planning to send it directly to China, but Tirard, in order to please Norris, chartered a plane to send it to Sadwell instead.

Now that he had received it, Norrexis thought he might as well let his daughter see it one last time before sending it back to China, so he arranged for it to be delivered to his door.

The staff transported the large jade screen upstairs by elevator and placed it in another room of the suite before the maid went to inform Bian Xiao, who was chatting and laughing with Rachel on the sofa.

“Come with me and take a look,” Bian Xiao said. “I’m thinking of redesigning some of the jade and emeralds I have. Take a look at this emerald screen; it might give you some inspiration.”

Rachel wrote down Bian Xiao's words, and with a smile, she changed rooms with Bian Xiao. The room was full of lush greenery and vitality.

“It’s absolutely gorgeous, it’s a work of art,” Rachel exclaimed.

"It is indeed very beautiful, but a bit old-fashioned. It would be more suitable for the house in Jinling." Bian Xiao was also amazed by the spring-like atmosphere in the room and carefully stood closer to admire it for a while.

The screen was carved with various patterns using jade, making it magnificent and dazzling.

"Tell Daddy to send it to Nanjing, China. I'll hold a Hanfu banquet when I get back," Bian Xiao said to the maid who was informing her.

"Yes, miss." The maid nodded and left the room.

"By the way, Rachel, I need to add a little something to those changes I mentioned earlier, but I haven't thought of it yet. Don't rush to make the changes; I'll let you know when I've figured it out."

“Okay, Miss Della, I’ll wait for your reply,” Rachel replied with a smile.

"Then you should go back first." Bian Xiao prepared to go and ask Norris.

This screen is made of a jade wall that is about two meters long and one meter high. The four sides are framed with carved wooden borders. The craftsmanship is exquisite and the value is considerable. Who would give her such a gift if it were not a festival?

Moreover, the maid didn't say the full name when she relayed the message, probably because she was worried about Rachel being there.

Bian Xiao was really curious about what he needed to ask their family for.

Jadeite wasn't particularly expensive to her, given how many jadeite mines she owned, but such a large piece of jadeite was indeed a rare treasure.

"Daddy," no one stopped Bian Xiao, and he pushed open the study door and went in.

“Big brother’s here too.” Bian Xiao closed the door and walked towards the father and son.

“Della, come here.” Sadwell stood up, took his sister’s hand, and sat down opposite Norris. “Weren’t you looking at something with Kanforth?”

“Yeah!” Bian Xiao nodded, leaning against his brother’s arm like he had no bones. “Who told Daddy to suddenly send me that jade screen, and then not tell me who sent it or why he sent it… It piqued my curiosity, so I had to come and ask!”

“Oh, about that.” Sadwell tapped his sister’s forehead. “No matter how valuable it is, it’s just a stone. It was a gift from Tirard, so I didn’t tell you directly.”

"Ouch~" Bian Xiao complained, clutching his head, "You could have just said so, why did you have to hit me?" Then he whimpered in pain.

The fakes were obvious at a glance, but the father and son kept falling for them.

Sadwell had no choice but to apologize to the mischievous child.

After the commotion, Bian Xiao picked up the hot tea on the table and took a sip. "Why is Tirard sending me gifts? Didn't I just send him a batch last time?"

“Sotai isn’t dead.” Norrexis never hid anything from his daughter.

"Daddy, how did you know?" Bian Xiao saw his father's smile and suddenly realized, "Oh! I get it, so that batch of new goods was actually for Zotac?"

Sadwell patted his sister's head. "As expected of our family's Della."

"Did I tell you right?" Bian Xiaole's eyes narrowed, a smug smile spreading across his face. "Let them fight until they're both badly injured!"

"I'll accept this jade screen without hesitation, hehe."

“Take it. Tirard said it’s some kind of antique, something your great-grandmother would like.” Norris knew his wife’s family’s preferences like the back of his hand. After all, you can’t just give gifts randomly when you’re pursuing a wife; he’s no naive young man.

"Oh right, where's the young man?" Bian Xiao suddenly realized that he had forgotten someone.

“I assigned him a task in the study,” Sadwell said ruthlessly.

"Hahaha, well done, big brother!" Bian Xiao cheered, hugging Sadwell and giving him a big kiss.

Sitting on the sofa, she complained to Sadwell that Bian He always bullied her in the pool, and that they would go swimming together later that night so that her older brother could "get revenge" on Bian He.

Sadwell nodded with a smile. These two siblings!

.......

"Fine!" Bian He glared at his sister, who was laughing hysterically beside him. "Della, that's you, isn't it?!"

"Hahahaha, what do you mean by 'me'? I have no idea what you're talking about." Bian Xiao pretended to be stupid, but the smile that was spreading across his face clearly revealed everything.

"Big brother, what Della said to you was definitely not good or bad." Bian He splashed a handful of water directly at Bian Xiao. "That little rascal, he slanders me every day."

"Big brother!" Bian Xiao couldn't dodge in time and was splashed with water as he turned to the side. He hurriedly shouted, "Look! I didn't slander him! He dares to bully me in front of you, waaaaah~" As he spoke, he turned his back to Sadwell and made a face at Bian He to provoke him, speaking pitifully.

"Phil, stop bullying Della." Sadwell acted as if he hadn't seen anything, his favoritism was boundless.

"Waaaaah, I'm the most unlucky one, my dad doesn't love me and my mom doesn't care about me at all~~~" Bian He also started wailing.

“Otefiel,” Norresis’s voice came from behind, “You said I don’t care about you. Well, to make sure you’re telling the truth, it seems I’ll have to give you more work.”

"Hahahahaha!" Bian Xiao almost fell over laughing at Bian He's sorrowful face.
