Lu Jinyu and Jiang Shen, who were sitting there, felt that they had been unjustly victimized. They jumped up and protested, âWhat do you mean by the best man canât be too handsome?â
âThatâs right! Where does that put us?! Sister-in-law, we donât like your words! Are you saying weâre not handsome?â
Gong Jie was satisfied.
However, Mu Yazhe was displeased. âDoes Madam mean that Iâm not as handsome as brother-in-law?â
Gong Jie chimed in, âIs there a need to ask? Sister is just worried that Iâll steal your limelight if I become the best man.â
âShut up, you.â
âThe truth is ultimately hurtful. Brother-in-law, this means that in Sisterâs eyes, Iâm more handsome than you.â
âShut up.â
âHaha, I wonât.â
Mu Yazhe glared at him.
Gong Jie glared back defiantly.
Their eyes met and sparks flew.
Yun Shishi was stumped, âErâ¦â
She seemed to have unintentionally started a war.
Seeing that his father and uncle were at odds with each other, Youyou quickly tried to smooth things over and changed the topic. âUncle, how much cash gift are you preparing for Mommyâs wedding?â
Gong Jie replied, âFifty million.â
Yun Shishi widened her eyes in shock. âFifty million?â
âUh huh.â
Gong Jie wrapped his arm around her and rested his chin on her shoulder. He smiled and said, âIs Sister very touched?â
Mu Yazhe pushed his face away and snorted. âFifty million? How petty.â
âPetty?â
Gong Jie was furious. âYou think that 50 million US dollars is petty? Do you want me to give you all my assets?â
My Yazhe shamelessly stretched out his hand and said, âHand it over then.â
Gong Jie scoffed, âBrother-in-law, youâre so shameless.â
Mu Yazhe returned with an elegant smile. âNo matter how shameless I am, I wonât be as shameless as you. You always claim that your sister is the greatest, yet youâre only gifting a miserable fifty million. How petty.â
Gong Jie gritted his teeth and replied, âOkay, 100 million then!â
â100 million!?â
Yun Shishi sucked in another breath of cold air. She quickly did a mental conversion of 100 million US dollars into RMB.
Youyouâs heart ached as he watched from the side. He finally knew where Little Yichen got his lack of aptitude in arithmetic from. He said with heartache, âMommy, stop counting. 100 million US dollars is about 700 million yuan.â
Clang!
Yun Shishi could almost hear the sound of the abacus.
She could feel her head spinning, as though it had been hit by wads of banknotes falling from the sky.
So much�
Just how rich was Xiao Jie? How could a casual cash gift be a hundred million?
Yun Shishi doubted the credibility of his word.
Mu Yazheâs lips curled into a triumphant smile. âThatâs more like it. Make sure you keep your word, Iâll be waiting for your check.â
Gong Jie suddenly felt as if he had been tricked. His face was ashen, but he could not retort.
Yun Shishi comforted him. âItâs alright, Xiao Jie. When you get married, I will have your brother-in-law give you 200 million.â
Gong Jieâs eyes lit up. âReally?â
Yun Shishi nodded solemnly.
Youyou cupped his face and shouted, âDaddy, troubleâs brewing! Mommy is going to betray you!â
Little Yichen collapsed on the sofa laughing. Hugging his fatherâs stiff back, he laughed until he was out of breath. âDaddy, you have to start earning more money. Otherwise, when uncle gets married, you wonât be able to keep up with him!â
The man said, âI refuse. Two hundred million? I donât have it.â
Youyou fell over laughing too.
Daddy could afford two hundred million yuan, but if he were to cough up that money, his savings would be emptied.
Among all the people present, Gong Jie probably had the highest net worth.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Youyou was well aware of Gong Jieâs family background. The man was definitely as wealthy as a country.
