Chapter 651 - A Queen’s Mentality

“You…”

“What? Pay up! If you don’t pay me, I can also apply for the judicial court to carry out this justice. That will be detrimental to you, the Ling family.”

“I’ll pay up!”

After Ling Li recovered his life, he finally thought it through even though he was still angry.

Just like what Zhong Nuannuan said, the Ling family had poor judgment in the sense that they mistook pearls for fish eyes. They placed such a rare imperial jade in a pile of stones meant for wholesale. Even if Zhong Nuannuan did not buy the stone today, someone else would have bought it in the future. All in all, it would have nothing to do with the Ling family anyway.

Ling Li handed the 20 million check to Zhong Nuannuan and said, “Thank you for saving me.”

“You’re welcome. Thank you for your generosity, Mr. Ling.”

When Zhong Nuannuan saw that Ling Li started being polite to her, she reciprocated the same politeness.

“Grandpa, let’s go.”

“Okay, let’s go. Let’s go.”

Not only had Old Master Chi watched a good show where his granddaughter-in-law tore her rival in love apart, but he had also obtained a huge piece of imperial jade. He was in a very good mood.

Zhong Nuannuan pushed the cart with Old Master Chi walking beside her. Both of them carried themselves with such sophistication that Ling Pinyuan’s eyes burned in envy of them.

Compared to the imperial jade, she was more envious of Zhong Nuannuan for obtaining Old Master Chi’s acknowledgment.

Looking at the cart of raw stones, Ling Pinyuan was so angry that she vomited blood.

If the raw stone that Zhong Nuannuan singled out casually turned out to contain imperial jade like she claimed, it would not take much guessing to know that the cart must be packed to the brim with valuable stones!

Based on Zhong Nuannuan’s hatred for her, Ling Pinyuan could guarantee that Zhong Nuannuan must have picked nearly all of the higher-grade jade from Soaring Clouds Pavilion.

Therefore, the more she thought about it, the angrier she got. In the end, she had nowhere to vent her anger, so she yelled at Zhong Nuannuan, “Zhong Nuannuan, you’re not good enough for Chi Yang! Chi Yang’s job is so special, and he has so many enemies around him. It’s not something that a vulgar fan like you can understand. You’ll only be a burden to him if you get together with Chi Yang. Only I’m good enough for a man like Chi Yang! Don’t think that just because Chi Yang’s grandfather is on your side, you can be fearless. I’ll still go after Chi Yang. Chi Yang will get tired of you sooner or later, you dodder grass!”

Before Zhong Nuannuan could scold her, Grandpa Chi could not take it anymore.

“Say, you’re such an immature girl. How is your skin thicker than a city wall? My granddaughter-in-law is prettier than you, has a better figure, excellent medical skills, and is so skilled at stone gambling. Who are you to call her a dodder grass? Have you even seen a dodder grass before?

“You, on the other hand, what do you know? Other than bullying the elderly, being a scheming brat, being a sore loser, and hell-bent on revenge, I don’t see a single merit in you! Who are you to say that my granddaughter-in-law is inferior to you?”

“That’s right. I don’t understand why Miss Ling always says that Miss Zhong is inferior to her. She keeps looking down on Miss Zhong.”

“Maybe it’s because her family is rich!”

“Miss Zhong earned five billion just by gambling on rocks. Most importantly, she didn’t even bat an eyelid when it came to this five billion bucks. She’s nothing like Old Master Ling. He even had a heart attack because of that five billion bucks. Therefore, I think Miss Zhong must be much richer than her. You can tell just from her aura.”

“That’s true! I don’t know why Miss Ling keeps saying that Miss Zhong’s not as good as her. That’s probably a queen’s mentality at work, I guess!”

“What do you mean?” One of the onlookers asked.

“In fairy tales, doesn’t the queen always think she’s prettier than Snow White?”
