The Almighty Rich Daughter is Explosively Cool - Chapter 183
Chapter 183: Replacing Her Son-in-Law
He Wanqing’s face on the other hand, was difficult to look at.
Luo Chen blankly watched all of this unfold. Then, he cursed, “The coming of age celebration for girls has a tradition like this? I sure regret not reading up on it earlier.”
He looked over to Tao Yi, Luo Huaian, and Luo Hangqian, “Mom, dad, brother, don’t tell me you didn’t prepare for this. Or else you will lose your son and your little brother.”
Tao Yi giggled at this. She opened up a box taken from her purse and handed it over, “It’s here.”
Luo Chen was ecstatic when he saw this. Just as he was about to take it over, Luo Hangqian beat him to it and took out the pearl.
He asked Luo Chen, “Who are you planning on giving this to.”
Luo Chen answered, “How’s that even a question? Of course to Qingqing!”
Luo Hangqian didn’t seem surprised and continued asking, “You giving this Pearl of Fortune and Marriage to Qiao Qing because you want to ask her for marriage, or because you want to help her out of this situation?”
Luo Chen said, “What’s the difference? It’s for her to have anyway. After all, she’s not going to marry me.”
Luo Hangqian couldn’t help but smile when he heard this. With one hand, he grabbed onto Luo Chen’s, and with the other, he placed the pearl onto his palm.
Then, he patted his head, “Go.”
“Okay, bro.”
Luo Chen acknowledged and went up to Qiao Qing.
Qin Yongmei saw Luo Chen hand the pearl to Qiao Qing and her face turned dark.
But she remembered that out of the four powerful forces in the City of Brisk, three of them, the Qi family, the Si family, and the Jiang family all had given the pearl to her own daughter, the discomfort she felt dissipated.
He Wanqing saw that Luo Chen had gifted his pearl yet Jun Yexuan was nowhere to be seen. Silently, on the inside, she decided that once she gets back, she will replace her son-in-law!
Jiang Hong, who was sitting in a corner and being lowkey, handed a pearl to his grandson. He blamed, “Go. That girl’s never going to consider you so don’t have too much hope.”
Ye Fan, “…”
When Everyone saw Ye Fan give Qiao Qing the pearl, the Go fans suddenly remembered how Qiao Qing had saved the City of Brisk from humiliation back at the Go competition.
They hesitated and some people ended up giving the Pearl of Fortune and Marriage to Qiao Qing.
Of course, very few people cared about this. Most people still cared about power and status.
Once these people were done giving out the pearls, Qiao Nian’s box was almost full. Yet Qiao Qing only had a selective few in hers.
Qin Yongmei was ecstatic as she counted the Pearls of Fortune and Marriage. After counting, she smiled and said to He Wanqing, “Niannian got 76. How many did Qingqing get?”
He Wanqing’s face turned completely black and she didn’t answer her.
Everyone peered into Qiao Qing’s jewelry box and saw that there were only five pearls there. Why would there be a need to count?
Though everyone pitied Qiao Qing, they all exclaimed over how they made the right decision.
After all, everyone wanted to follow the crowd and everyone believed that only the best got competed over.
Luo Chen cursed again, “Are all these people blind? Grades, Go skills, appearance… no matter what, Qingqing is better than Qiao Nian by a landslide. How come nobody is giving Qingqing any pearls?”
Everyone around him watched him behave angrily and were just about to bring up Qiao Nian’s exam grade when a hostess entered.
“Elder… elder Qiao, young master Feng is here.”
Qiao Zhizhuo froze, “Which young master Feng?”
The hostess announced, “The Jing Sect Leader, Feng Heng!”
His words resulted in an explosion amongst the crowd.
In the City of Brisk, four families appear to be most glorious and righteous. However, those who walked on the line and dealt in the grey area all know that the one person nobody should offend was Feng Heng.
