The Real Young Miss's Secret Identities Revealed - Chapter 1078
Chapter 1078: Thought It Was Ironic
All the guests cast their eyes on Fu Jiuxiao and Jiang Li, especially Fu Jiuxiao, who naturally got more attention.
As for Fu Zhongtian?
Who would care about him?
The ladies who were originally surrounding Fu Zhongtian were embarrassed to be too blunt, so they could only sneak glances at Fu Jiuxiao from time to time.
The socialites did not think that way.
They always felt that they were the women who were truly worthy of Fu Jiuxiao. They felt that Jiang Li, who was standing beside Fu Jiuxiao, really did not have the qualifications.
Fu Zhongtian tried his best to maintain his basic courtesy and decent smile, but his face became more and more unsightly, and he could not hide it.
Fu Jiuxiao and Jiang Li walked toward Li Shuwan together. After greeting her politely, they were going to give the birthday present to Old Madam Li.
Li Shuwan’s eyes were filled with pride. This fiancée and his wife were usually arrogant and did not take her as their sister-in-law seriously.
So what?
They had to respect their elders when they were at a really important occasion.
Jiang Li saw through Li Shuwan’s thoughts and said with a faint smile, “Sister-in-law, we prepared this gift meticulously. Can we give it to Old Madam Li?”
Li Shuwan quickly came back to her senses and glared at Jiang Li angrily. She said coldly, “Meticulously? How meticulous would you be?”
She was immersed in her thoughts. When she heard Jiang Li’s voice, she instinctively retorted, but it attracted the attention of the surrounding guests.
“Mom, what are you talking about? It’s good that uncle and auntie are here.” Fu Yusheng appeared beside Li Shuwan with a sincere and warm smile.
Li Shuwan panicked. She should not make things difficult for Fu Jiuxiao at this time. It would only bring shame to the Li family.
…
Fu Yusheng wasn’t the only one. The other elders of the Li family also came over. After saying a few polite words to Fu Jiuxiao and Jiang Li, they asked them to wait a little longer. Old Madam Li would come out soon.
Not long ago, Old Madam Li was sick and her condition had just stabilized. The doctors could only come out after they had checked her.
“Okay! Sister-in-law, the birthday present is outside. Please accept it on behalf of Old Madam Li.” Fu Jiuxiao’s expression was indifferent, and his attitude toward everyone was the same.
At this time, he was no longer as unreasonable and merciless as before, but it was impossible to communicate with him further.
Li Shuwan’s heart itched very badly. She really wanted to go out and see what good things Fu Jiuxiao would give her right now.
Jiang Li noticed Li Shuwan’s expression and said seriously, “This is a gift that Xiao picked from Country M, and the packaging is very complete.”
What kind of words was that?
Li Shuwan could hear the mockery in Jiang Li’s tone. She raised her head angrily and looked at Jiang Li fiercely.
Damn girl!
This was too much.
Did Jiang Li mean that Li Shuwan would destroy the packaging?
Li Shuwan sneered and said, “I’m different from you. I come from the Li family, and I’m quite wealthy. I’m not as shallow as some people.”
“Uncle, auntie, there’s food prepared on the left. Please go over there.” Fu Yusheng stood in front of Li Shuwan with a smile, and he extended his hand to invite Fu Jiuxiao and the others to have a taste.
He behaved appropriately throughout the whole process, but when he interrupted Li Shuwan, he seemed a little stiff.
There was nothing she could do.
Li Shuwan was anxious to suppress Fu Jiuxiao in the Li family, but she forgot that many people in the Li family wanted to cooperate with Fu Jiuxiao. She would cut off the Li family’s escape route.
Fu Zhongtian walked to Li Shuwan’s side dejectedly and asked softly, “Don’t lower yourself to Fu Jiuxiao’s level. Let’s see when mother-in-law will appear.”
Li Shuwan brought the gift from Fu Jiuxiao to see Old Madam Li.
In front of the guests, she refused to give Fu Jiuxiao and Jiang Li any good looks. In the blink of an eye, when she arrived in front of Old Madam Li, she deliberately showed that the Fu family valued her, especially since Fu Jiuxiao had brought back a gift from Country M that he had prepared it in advance and was quite attentive.
Old Madam Li nodded in satisfaction and said, “What’s the use of being arrogant? They still have to behave themselves in front of me.”
She ordered her servants to open the package, and when she found that it was actually a painting, her mood became very bad.
How much could it be worth?
Was Fu Jiuxiao selling it so shabbily?
He deliberately did not pay attention to the Li family, right?
Li Shuwan did not know much about art, and her face did not look too good.
Only Fu Zhongtian was very surprised and blurted out, “Ah, this is an artist’s collection. It’s very hard to buy.”
Old Madam Li sneered and said, “So what if it’s hard to buy? Don’t you know what Fu Jiuxiao is thinking?”
What kind of thoughts could there be?
Most of the gifts sent by the guests were mainly collectibles. They were valuable, could be collected, and could also show their taste.
Fu Zhongtian really did not think that Fu Jiuxiao was deliberately making things difficult for him. Instead, he felt that this gift was very thoughtful and nodded in satisfaction.
“Hmph, this is mocking an old woman like me who doesn’t know art and deliberately put it out to annoy people,” Old Madam Li said.
Li Shuwan did not think so at first, but after hearing old madam Li’s thoughts, she felt that it made sense.
Fu Jiuxiao and Jiang Li must have thought so.
They were provoking the Li family.
Fu Zhongtian rubbed his nose and muttered, “What’s there to be ironic about? They wouldn’t be so insensible.”
Most importantly, in Fu Jiuxiao’s eyes, the Li family had already become dilapidated, and it was not worth his effort to be sarcastic and mocking.
Li Shuwan glared at him fiercely, and Fu Zhongtian had no choice but to keep quiet.
