Princess is Glamorous in Modern Day

Chapter 374: Dad-Conning Trickster

The Ancient Zither Association exploded.
In fact, even Cai Qin did not expect Xia Wanyuan to really win the championship.

After all, according to his plan, as long as Xia Wanyuan could enter the top ten, he would be able to find connections to settle the matter of Xia Wanyuan joining the association.
Who would have thought that Xia Wanyuan would be so supportive, directly supporting a gold award?

Now, there was no need for him to find any connections.
The gold award for the World Competition was enough to open the door for the Ancient Zither Association.

That day, the higher-ups approved Xia Wanyuan’s application to join the association.
Xia Wanyuan officially became a member of the Ancient Zither Association.

Professor Zhang was the only person in the Painter Association who knew Xia Wanyuan’s true identity.
Seeing that the Ancient Zither Association had already poached her, Professor Zhang was extremely anxious.
He ran to the Painter Association and spoke to the president for a long time, hoping to recruit Yuan Wanxia into the association.

However, the admission procedures for the Chinese Painter Association were even more complicated and had more requirements.
Even though Li Qian admired Yuan Wanxia very much, it was not that easy.

“Speaking of which, who is this Yuan Wanxia? You can deceive others but not me.
I don’t believe you got it from a stall.” Li Qian looked at Professor Zhang suspiciously.

“Since she doesn’t want to expose her identity, I can’t say much.
But I can only say that she’s an especially good seedling.”

“Seedling?!” Li Qian looked at Professor Zhang in surprise.
This word was not used randomly.
“How old is Yuan Wanxia? Is the word ‘seedling’ suitable?”

“22 years old.” Professor Zhang thought that it should not be a problem to reveal her age.

“22?! Old Zhang, are you kidding me? That’s not right.
It’s fine if you don’t tell me who he is, but how can you make up something as ridiculous as 22 years old?” Li Qian waved his hand.
He did not believe it at all. How could that painting technique not have decades of foundation?

Professor Zhang repeatedly guaranteed it, but Li Qian also felt that Professor Zhang was lying to him.

“Alright, forget it if you don’t believe me.
Anyway, you have to take this matter to heart and get her in as soon as possible.”

“Got it, got it.”

Li Qian wondered if there were any special channels to recruit people.
He accidentally saw the news that Xia Wanyuan had been accepted into the Ancient Zither Association because she had won the World Music Competition gold award.

Li Qian’s mind lit up as he thought of a solution.

The weather was gradually getting hotter.
There were no magical desserts like ice cream in the Xia Dynasty.

When Xia Wanyuan watched television, she always saw someone eating this.
Now that it was finally time to eat ice cream, Xia Wanyuan leaned on the bed and ate a chocolate-flavored ice cream while reading the script.

Xia Wanyuan savored the aftertaste and felt that she had not had enough.
She took out another box of vanilla ice cream from the fridge in the bedroom.

However, before she could sit down and eat two mouthfuls, Jun Shiling walked in and stopped her from continuing to dig for ice cream.

“What’s the matter?”

Jun Shiling glanced at the empty ice cream bag beside him.
“It’s too cold.
You can only eat one.”

“It’s not cold.
I’m very hot.
I’ll eat another one,” Xia Wanyuan said and wanted to take the ice cream back from Jun Shiling.

“Aren’t you still on your period? You can’t eat too much cold food.” Jun Shiling took the box away disapprovingly.

“It’s over long ago.”

“Is that so?” Jun Shiling placed the box somewhere Xia Wanyuan couldn’t reach and sat beside her.

Xia Wanyuan knew what he was thinking the moment she saw his expression.
Xia Wanyuan shrank back nervously, but Jun Shiling pulled her back.

A piece of pine fragrance covered her.

After a while, Jun Shiling’s voice was hoarse.
“How sweet.”

“Is Jun Yin still at Grandpa’s house today?” Xia Wanyuan suddenly asked, perhaps because her brain had short-circuited.

She regretted it after asking.
It was as if she was hinting at something.

As expected, Jun Shiling smiled when he heard Xia Wanyuan’s words.
“Mm, he’s not coming back.
Tonight is ours.
I didn’t expect you to be even more anxious than me.”

Just as Jun Shiling finished speaking, he wanted to continue.

The sound of running footsteps could be heard from outside, followed by a cute voice.
“Mommy, Daddy, I’m back!!! I missed you guys so much!!!”
