Chu Qingzhi nodded and explained what had happened to Tang Jinghong.
When Tang Jinghong heard this, he glanced at Wu Quancai. The two families had been competing over the number one porcelain family for decades.
Lord Zhao was going to hold a wedding and needed to buy a batch of porcelain. The porcelain merchants around the capital were competing to become the provider. It was said that Lord Zhao had decided on the Li family’s porcelain.
Wu Quancai must have heard about it, which was why he came to find trouble with the Li family.
Tang Jinghong leaned closer to Chu Qingzhi and asked in a low voice, “Do you think Qingshuang can make the embryo?”
Chu Qingzhi was calm and collected and her tone was confident. “Of course. Ten years of playing with the mud isn’t for nothing. Qingshuang’s comprehension of porcelain has already reached the level of a master.”
Tang Jinghong’s gaze gently swept across Chu Qingzhi’s delicate eyebrows. “Qingshuang is lucky to have a sister like you.’”
Chu Qingzhi looked at him and smiled. “I’m lucky to have her as my sister too.” Qingshuang had also given her many precious things.
Tang Jinghong looked at that smile and his heart raced uncontrollably.
Under everyone’s gaze, Chu Qingshuang calmly molded the clay into the shape of a vase and then the most difficult part, the patterns of the morning glory vines.
It was undeniable that the vase was very beautiful, but it required a deep foundation in pottery.
Chu Qingshuang looked up at the paper and frowned unconsciously. It was indeed a little difficult for her to mold a vine and coil it around the body of the vase.
If she did not do it well, not only would she be mocked, but she would also embarrass her master and family.
She could not help but feel anxious and uneasy. The cold sweat on her forehead slowly seeped out and gathered into beads of sweat that rolled down her face…
When Chu Qingzhi saw Chu Qingshuang like this, she knew that something was wrong. She curled her fingers and condensed a ball of light.
The ball of light entered Chu Qingshuang’s glabella without anyone noticing.
In an instant, Chu Qingshuang felt enlightened.
Her fear and nervousness were swept away. Her anxious heart instantly calmed down. She slowly took a deep breath and began to mold the vines.
When everyone saw her reaction, they couldn’t help but praise her.
Chu Qingzhi retracted her finger and continued to watch quietly.
Tang Jinghong stood straight with one hand behind his back, his aura spreading naturally.
Seeing the light flash past, he turned to look at Chu Qingzhi with some curiosity.
Chu Qingzhi tilted her head and looked at Tang Jinghong. Her eyes were clear and calm. She blinked at him before looking away.
When Wu Quancai saw Chu Qingshuang like this, he felt a little nervous. How could Chu Qingshuang make such a difficult porcelain embryo?
Impossible. He had asked the porcelain masters in his family to make it, but they all said that they couldn’t. How could a teenage girl do it?
She must be pretending to be calm.
He tried his best to calm himself down. In his heart, he hoped that Chu Qingshuang would fail. It would be best if she made a big fool of herself and embarrassed her master.
When Li Zhenzong saw Chu Qingshuang’s performance, a smile appeared on his face.
Li Shaoliang’s tightly clenched fists slowly relaxed. When he saw Chu Qingshuang sweating just now, his heart was in his throat.
As time passed, Chu Qingshuang successfully molded the vines of the morning glory, then the flowers, leaves…
What she needed to do next was to fuse the morning glory’s vines, leaves, flowers, and the vase into one.
This was also the most difficult part. If it was not done well, it would look unnatural. That way, it would be considered a failure.
Chu Qingshuang closed her eyes and took a few deep breaths before carefully wrapping the vines around the bottle…
The people who came here more or less knew about porcelain and even did porcelain business.
Currently, the porcelain business had already entered a bottleneck. It was very, very difficult to break through the bottleneck, but now, they seemed to see a possibility… to break through the bottleneck and bring the porcelain business to another level.
Wu Quancai’s palms were sweating more and more, as if he had just washed her hands.
If Chu Qingshuang successfully molded the porcelain, everything he did today would become a stepping stone for her. Furthermore, he would lose an expensive jade pendant.
The losses would be huge!
At the thought of this, Wu Quancai could no longer remain calm. He turned his head slightly and glanced at the man behind him, as if he was sending a secret signal.
The man silently left the crowd.
Chu Qingzhi narrowed her eyes slightly, and a cold light appeared. Wu Quancai was clearly planning to play tricks when he realized that he was going to lose.
Her divine sense followed the man who had left the crowd. Then, she saw him walking to an alley at the side. There was a person wearing a bamboo hat who knew martial arts.
She quietly left the crowd and walked towards the alley. The man had yet to leave. When he saw Chu Qingzhi coming over, he immediately became nervous.
Just as she was about to make a move, a low and deep voice suddenly brushed past her ears like the wind. “I’ll do it!” Then, he walked up to the bamboo hatted man and froze him on the spot.
Tang Jinghong slowly walked out of the alley. He did not hide his feelings and also wanted to test her. “Let me do this kind of thing for you in the future.”
Chu Qingzhi was slightly stunned. She said with a smile, “Okay.”
Tang Jinghong looked down at Chu Qingzhi’s delicate and beautiful face. Had she accepted him just now?
Chu Qingzhi tilted her head playfully. “Let’s go back.”
Tang Jinghong smiled. “Okay.”
Chu Qingzhi placed her hands behind her back and walked towards the Li mansion with an unnatural expression.
Tang Jinghong was already indirectly expressing his feelings to her. Although she really hoped that a man would like her, she felt that there was something missing.
What was missing though?
Tang Jinghong walked behind, his gaze fixing on the beautiful figure in front of him with a faint smile.
Wherever Qingzhi was, he seemed to be unable to see anyone else.
After Wu Quancai secretly gave the word, he stopped panicking. He slowly calmed down and looked at the porcelain embryo in Chu Qingshuang’s hand with a sinister smile.
At this moment, Chu Qingshuang was focused on placing the leaves of the morning glory on the vines.
Carefully, Chu Qingshuang put more than ten leaves on the vines.
From afar, it looked like a real morning glory vine had climbed up the vase. It was very realistic..
