Chapter 622 - 622 Monetary Gift
The Crippled Boss Loves Me
622 Monetary Gift
At this point, Lu Shaoyang was still reluctant. It was as if he had compromised for the sake of his family. However, when he talked about Su Ling, his tone was gentle. Lu Shaoyang acted as if he was forced, but he wouldnât reject firmly. He behaved gently to Su Ling and gave her false hope.
Shen Hanxing laughed sarcastically. She could not be bothered to continue watching this hypocritical show. She said, âIf you guys want to reminisce, feel free to do so. Mr. Ji and I are here to attend a wedding. We shall go now.â
Lu Shaoyangâs face turned pale as he looked at Shen Hanxing in disbelief. He made his parents and Su Lingâs parents angry so that he could spend longer time with her before the wedding, but what about her? She left without any hesitation, not caring about his sacrifice. Lu Shaoyangâs heart ached terribly.
âOf course, no problem.â Lu Nuannuan was furious when she saw Lu Shaoyangâs expression. She had admired Lu Shaoyang since she was a child. He was handsome, young, and talented. He was like a gentle and bright prince. He would give her gifts, take her out to play, and tell her stories. He was not as annoying as other brothers. Her brother deserved the best woman in the world. Shen Hanxing was a woman with only good looks. It would be an insult to her brother. But now⦠This woman that she looked down on made her brother sad. Lu Nuannuanâs eyes were filled with disgust. She laughed and pretended to be innocent. âDid Mr. And Mrs. Ji bring any money? Did you bring a gift?â
âNuannuan!â Mrs. Lu shouted, but she didnât show much criticism on her face. She rebuked, âThatâs impolite. You shouldnât ask for it from the guest. The guest should take initiative instead. Donât say such things again.â
âIâm still young, I donât know about these.â Lu Nuannuan stuck out her tongue and smiled as if she was not scheming. âI thought this was the custom because everyone has given it. So, the guest should offer the gift, right? I was wrong then. This way, Mr. and Mrs. Ji.â Her tone was sarcastic. She was clearly criticizing Shen Hanxing and Ji Yan for being impolite.
Lu Guoâs lips twitched, but he said nothing in the end. The Ji Corporation was indeed a giant that they should not offend. However, this was a society ruled by law. They shouldnât be nice when they were already angry, right? In particular, Lu Nuannuan was young as the youngest daughter of the family. It was just a slip of the tongue. Ji Yan was the president of the Ji Corporation. How could he argue with Lu Nuannuan?He would appear petty if he did so.
Besides, the Lu family and Ji Corporation were not in the same industry. Lu family had an upcoming big project that could make them rich instantly. They were not afraid of being suppressed. Moreover, Lu Guo had been in the circle for so many years. He had long known Ji Yanâs character. Although he was cold, he was quite open-minded. He was not the kind of person who would take revenge for the smallest grievance. Therefore, Lu Guo laughed awkwardly and gave up his seat as he said, âNuannuan was young and insensible. President Ji, Mrs. Ji, please donât take it to heart.â
âIndeed, we wonât.â Shen Hanxing chuckled. âAny normal person above five years old wouldnât say something like that. Miss Lu, youâre really surprising.â
Lu Nuannuanâs expression changed. She could barely maintain the smug look on her face as she screamed in anger, âAre you implying that Iâm worse than a five-year-old child?â Whatâs more, she felt that Shen Hanxing was mocking her! This woman was truly vicious!
âWhoever did it will feel it.â Shen Hanxing looked at Lu Nuannuan with a cold smile, sizing her up from head to toe. She said in an almost contemptuous tone, âWhat, is that the Lu familyâs rule that youâre the only one who can say it?â
Lu Nuannuan choked. She was so angry that she wanted to pounce on Shen Hanxing and tear her pretty face apart.
âMonetary gift?â Ji Yan said in a deep and magnetic voice, with an inexplicable coldness on his face. âItâs a custom to prepare a wedding gift. Weâve prepared it too.â He reached into his pocket.
