Chapter 2179 The Truth Abroad (11)
He said excitedly: "Jiaojiao, why don't you take care of me too? I'll take good care of you!"
Of course, as soon as he said this, Duan Xu kicked him away and told him to go wherever he wanted.
The fireworks lasted for ten minutes, from 11:50 to 12:00 in the morning. Although the Ruan family was not short of money now, Ruan Jiaojiao was still heartbroken. However, she was really happy and extremely happy. Her face was almost frozen with laughter.
Duan Xu, however, could not laugh at all when he saw her smiling face under the gorgeous fireworks, because he knew that for a sentimental girl, her happiness would end at 12:00 in the morning.
After setting off the fireworks, people gradually left the Ruan family. Old Shu was too old to bother with the party and went to rest in the guest room.
Ruan Jiaojiao was so excited that she couldn't fall asleep for a while. She was very happy looking at the gifts all over the room. For
this 18th birthday, everyone's gifts were very expensive.
In addition to the 18 gold bars that he received every year, Mr. Shu also had two shops in the most prosperous period of the northern capital. It was said that these shops were brought by Mrs. Shu as a dowry. There were more than ten shops in total, which should have been divided equally among the three siblings. However, Mr. Shu was still alive, so there was no such thing as dividing the family property. The three siblings were not short of money, so except for some shops that Shu Wei took away to run a store, the rest were in Mr. Shu's hands.
Shu Lang and Gu Ziqing gave them separately.
Shu Lang gave her a car, while Gu Ziqing gave her a bunch of brand-name luxury goods, including bags and jewelry. Gu Ziqing has always been at the forefront of fashion, but before Ruan Jiaojiao was young, she had never given her luxury goods except for some skin care products and cosmetics suitable for her, and Shu Jie did not agree that she was too young to use these.
But now that she is an adult, she can use them. Gu Ziqing has a good family background and is not short of money, so he gave all the brand-name luxury goods that he had been holding for Ruan Jiaojiao all these years to her, filling up the entire bed. The value of that is definitely far more than the car that Shu Lang gave her.
In order to put these luxury items, Ruan Jiaojiao plans to talk to Ruan Jianguo tomorrow and build a cloakroom in her room. Anyway, her room is large and can even be separated from the bathroom.
Shu Wei's gift is simpler and more straightforward. She founded her company and has absolute decision-making power. She directly gave Ruan Jiaojiao some shares. Although it is not much, it is definitely enough for Ruan Jiaojiao to be rich and worry-free for life. As
for the brothers, because they are all in the starting stage of their careers, they may not be as good as the gifts from the Shu family, but for Ruan Jiaojiao, no matter how much money, famous or not, they are all her treasures.
However, in her excitement, Ruan Jiaojiao discovered a problem.
She ran to Duan Xu, who was leaning against the corner of the table and watching her busying around, raised her head, and stretched out her little hand: "Brother Xu, where is my gift?"
Duan Xu looked down at Ruan Jiaojiao, whose eyes were shining with joy, and his heart was full of knots.
He couldn't hide Lu Zhen's affairs from her, but thinking of her reaction after learning the news, his heart began to ache.
"Brother Xu?" Ruan Jiaojiao blinked.
Duan Xu leaned down and held Ruan Jiaojiao in his arms: "Jiaobao, I just want you to be happy, and I'm willing to pay any price."
