Chapter 35: Of Course I Prepared a Present

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“I…” Qi Yu instantly found himself speechless.

When did Su Ye become so eloquent?

It would have been better if she remained silent, because the moment she said those words, the ladies felt that Qi Yu had overstepped his boundaries, especially since Rong Ruo was still next to him.

At that moment, Rong Ruo became the center of attention. She felt so embarrassed that she did not know where to hide. Even though she refused to believe that Qi Yu had really done that, she was still frustrated over how stupid he was. It was his fault that she was embarrassed before the ladies.

Her act of holding Qi Yu’s arm became a huge joke. Just when she wanted to pull back, he pressed on her hand and looked at her. “Little Ruo, you don’t believe me as well? I really never looked!”

The moment he shouted, the atmosphere of the entire birthday party became even more awkward. Rong Ruo could only suppress her anger while she calmed him down. “You didn’t. Of course, I believe you, Big Brother Qi Yu.”

He held Rong Ruo’s hand tightly and glared at Su Ye. This time, to avoid arousing suspicion, he only dared to glare at her through his peripheral vision.

‘She actually said something like this in front of so many people? How frivolous! Doesn’t she know what sort of shameless thing she did to Bo Yunli? Does she really think that she has a fiance and his family to support her?’

If she apologized to Little Ruo, he would not mind giving her another chance, but by the looks of it now, she was hopeless.

When the ladies saw that Qi Yu was really angry, they wanted to ease up the situation, so they changed the topic and said, “By the way, Qi Yu, tell us the tricks you have for investing.”

When Qi Yu heard this, his expression became more pleasant. Yet when he was about to speak, he felt the soft hand wanting to move away from the crook of his arm. This time, Rong Ruo was even more resolute and quick, so he did not have the time to react.

He was about to ask for the reason when he looked in the direction of everyone’s gaze and saw a group of people walking over from the courtyard.

The people at the front were Master Bo and Bo Yunli.

Lin Zhan and the butler followed closely behind them.

The crowd stood up to receive them and offered their meticulously prepared birthday presents. The atmosphere once again reached its climax.

Rong Ruo quickly smoothed out her dress and brought out an exquisite box from her bag. She handed it to Master Bo. “Grandpa Bo, this is a present I chose for you. It’ll definitely be unable to compare to the gifts the other ladies gave you, but I hope you won’t find it unpleasant.”

As she spoke, she opened the box, and an incredibly valuable purple jade carving of Guanyin, the bodhisattva of compassion and mercy, was revealed inside. Guanyin appeared kindly and seemed focused on observing the lives in the world without caring about anything else.

The ladies gasped. When they heard what Rong Ruo said, they thought that she would not be giving anything rare, so they did not harbor a lot of hope to see anything amazing. Now, the more they observed it, the more shocked they became.

Rong Ruo scoffed in her heart. ‘My mom paid a lot for this.’

Bo Zhan smiled while looking at it. He nodded at the butler, and he immediately took it on his behalf.

Bo Zhan looked around the crowd. When he saw Su Ye, a smile he could not hide immediately bloomed on his face. He extended his hand in a gentle manner. “Ye Ye, come and support me.”

Everyone knew that the one lucky enough to support Master Bo would be the junior dearest to him.

“Su Ye, I wonder what gift you prepared for Master Bo,” Madam Li said with great jealousy.

Rong Ruo cast a glance at Su Ye’s cheap clothes and decided to pretend to help her out of her predicament while indirectly mocking her. “Master Bo, the Su family has encountered some difficulties lately in their business. Ye Ye might not have prepared any gifts for you. Please don’t be angry at her.”

Bo Zhan smiled naturally. “Ah, I’m already very happy to be able to see you, Ye Ye. You don’t have to give me anything—”

As he spoke, he saw Su Ye calmly bringing out a square box. She handed it to him. “Of course I prepared your gift. It’s what you like the most.”

“Oh?” Bo Zhan was delighted. He refused the butler’s help and personally tore off the wrapping paper on the box.

The smell of grapes wafted in the air. When Lin Zhan saw the familiar gift box inside, his eyelids twitched.

‘.... Those are the friggin’ grapes Su Ye bought yesterday from the fruit stall! They only cost 10.60 RMB!’
