Everyone knew that Jiang Yao was the fake young miss expelled from the Xu family. Her biological parents were country folk, untraceable! She could only follow the young master of the Lu family with...
Chapter 31 Are you crazy?
Only then did Chen Cheng'en finally realize his seriousness and opened his eyes wide in disbelief.
"Are you crazy?"
But he immediately calmed down and looked sarcastic.
"You think the money isn't enough! Tell me, how much more do you need to accept it? Is 500,000 enough?"
Xu Li had a cold face.
“I won’t take it, no matter how much money you give me.”
He would never again do such a thing as aiding and abetting evil against his conscience.
"Okay, okay! You are so noble, you are amazing—"
Looking at his righteous look, and thinking of how he stared at Jiang Yao's back just now, Chen Chengen suddenly had an idea.
"I say, you're not attracted to Jiang Yao and want to pursue her, so you can't wait to cut ties with us!"
After he said this, he realized that he had spoken out of turn.
He had just learned in the box that Jiang Yao not only did not bow to Lu Xuan, but became even more arrogant, and even made Lu Xuan suffer a series of setbacks. To be honest, he was a little surprised.
But I still feel that it is only a matter of time before Jiang Yao comes back.
Now that he said this, it seemed a bit provocative.
Unexpectedly, after a moment of silence, Xu Li suddenly chuckled.
"Yes, so what? Didn't Brother Xuan break up with her?"
Chen Chengen was suddenly choked.
The other brothers also quieted down.
They subconsciously glanced at Lu Xuan's expression beside them.
Lu Xuan's face looked very ugly. In this circle, he had the best family background and the highest achievements now. Everyone was fawning over him. Even though he and Jiang Yao had broken up, for his brother to say such things, wasn't that a slap in his face?
Lu Xuan's gloomy gaze swept across Xu Li's face inch by inch.
Thinking about how he rejected me that day.
Just when everyone was extremely nervous, he suddenly smiled with a look of disdain on his face and said sarcastically, "Whatever."
Of course he didn't believe that Xu Li was telling the truth.
He doesn't believe that a person who has relied on him to get to where he is today has the courage.
After saying that, he turned and left.
Chen Chengen beside him quickly caught up and snorted at Xu Li.
"I want to see, without Brother Xuan's care, where are you going to take on cases and make money?"
Having said that, he hurriedly followed Lu Xuan.
"Brother Xuan, don't be angry. I found you a beautiful girl today. I promise you will never want to leave again..."
The sound of obscene conversation drifted past my ears.
Xu Li was extremely disappointed.
He originally thought that with a good girlfriend like Jiang Yao, Lu Xuan's heart would change.
In the end, they are still a bunch of hopeless bastards.
He turned away with disdain.
And I secretly felt lucky that I wouldn't have to associate with these people in the future.
…
Jiang Yao and Shu Ya didn't really get drunk after all.
The two chatted for a while and talked about their respective situations.
When Shu Ya learned that Jiang Yao had re-entered the research institute to work on her favorite project, she was happy for her from the bottom of her heart.
"I knew you wouldn't give up your dream because of a scumbag."
"Oh right..."
While chatting, Shu Ya suddenly remembered something important.
"My grandma's birthday is in two days, and I haven't decided what gift to get her yet. You know I'm terrible at this, so I need you to help me. She was so happy with the gift you chose for her last year!
I'm about to join the group again, you have to find time to go with me to pick out some!"
Shu Ya blinked and made a please gesture to her.
Such passionate and charming eyes can charm thousands of fans in film and television dramas.
Jiang Yao naturally would not refuse.
However, she paused for a moment, as if she had thought of something.
"That's easy. I'll take you to a place tomorrow and I guarantee you'll be satisfied!"
That night, Jiang Yao sent out a message.
…
The next day, before noon, Shu Ya came to pick up Jiang Yao.
She was wearing a baseball cap and a mask.
This is her hometown. Her itinerary for returning here is kept secret. Besides, she is not a very famous person, so she is not usually recognized.
After the two of them had dinner, Jiang Yao took her to a place, not a big shopping mall or a high-end store, but an alley.
There is a shop with classical decoration inside.
When I pushed the door open and walked in, I saw the simple furnishings and found out it was a hair accessories shop.
There are some hairpins and other items displayed on the antique shelf, but the prices are shocking.
Jiang Yao pulled her and walked directly to the innermost emerald green hairpin, "Take a look at this."
Shu Ya has been in the entertainment industry for a long time and has some understanding of these things. This hairpin is simple yet not simplistic at first glance. The bold and simple design immediately attracted her attention.
She looked around carefully, then glanced at the designer's name under the hairpin, and almost jumped up with excitement.
Rian!
This is Rian's work!
You should know that Rian is a design master who has emerged in recent years. Because of his exquisite designs, he is very popular among wealthy ladies.
However, the output of her works is not high, and a hairpin can be sold at a sky-high price!
You may not be able to buy it even at a sky-high price.
She knew her grandmother liked these things and had already placed an order, but was told that Rian didn't have any new models on the market recently and they were not in stock. She didn't expect to find them here!
Seeing her surprised look.
Jiang Yao curled his lips unconsciously and introduced.
"This is the latest model. It's not sold online, but delivered here specially. If you had told me later, it might have been sold out."
Before Jiang Yao could finish what he was saying, the clerk on duty in the store suddenly came over.
He looked the two of them up and down with a look of disdain.
This is a private custom shop, and those who come to this kind of shop are people of status.
But the two women in front of me, one wearing sunglasses and a mask, covered herself tightly like a thief.
A man wearing simple clothes like a student doesn't look like a rich person at all.
She was about to speak when the door was pushed open again.
A lady dressed elegantly walked in.
The first thing he asked was, “Are the new models available?”
Jiang Yao subconsciously turned around and was stunned.
I didn't expect to meet her here - Lu Xuan's mother, Fang Man.
Fang Man was actually also surprised.
However, when she saw Jiang Yao, she thought of the previous phone call where she was humiliated by the other party.
The more she thought about it, the more unhappy she felt.
However, in front of outsiders, she still has to maintain the dignity of a lady.
"Yaoyao? What a coincidence."
As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person. Since she took the initiative to speak, Jiang Yao had no choice but to greet her. However, he didn't plan to say much. He turned around and wanted to ask the clerk to take down the hairpin.
Unexpectedly, Fang Man spoke first, looking past Jiang Yao with a hint of arrogance.
"Please take out this hairpin and let me see it."
If it were in the past, Jiang Yao would definitely move aside immediately and would not dare to stand in front of her.
But this time, Jiang Yao just smiled slightly.
"Sorry, we reserved this hairpin in advance."
The smile on Fang Man's face froze instantly.
However, it only took a moment for things to return to normal.
She looked at Jiang Yao with a faint smile, her eyes showing a bit of strangeness.
"Yaoyao, I know you must be unhappy that Xuan didn't give you much money after breaking up with you. He was wrong in this matter, but I know you are a good girl and won't remember it. This thing is not yours..."
She took the opportunity to glance at the tightly wrapped woman next to Jiang Yao, and her smile deepened.
"It's not something you and your friends can afford."
"You're unhappy, and I understand. I was able to find out that I came here today with a purpose. How about this? I really like this hairpin at first sight. Besides this one, you can pick any other one and I'll pay for it for you as compensation. How do you think?"
