Jiang Yuan got up from his seat and walked over to Liu Shuangshuang.
"Big sister, my gift is a bit special!" Jiang Yuan said, squatting down. Even when he was half-squatting, he was the same height as Liu Shuangshuang.
Liu Shuangshuang did not have any negative emotions because of Liu Mu's embellishment. She just smiled and said, "It can be seen that my Zhaodi really likes you. If you sincerely want to give your elder sister a gift, then please take good care of Zhaodi and don't let her suffer any grievances. This gift will be enough for your elder sister to enjoy for a lifetime."
"One thing at a time!" Jiang Yuan touched his storage ring, and a pair of women's sneakers without any spiritual energy fluctuations appeared.
However, this scene immediately caused an uproar among the people in the private room.
"Liu Zhaodi, what kind of boyfriend did you find? Doesn't he know that my sister is disabled in both legs and will never need shoes in her life? Yet he still sent her a pair of shoes. Isn't this just deliberately trying to provoke her?" Liu Mu was the first to attack.
"Yeah, this person probably did it on purpose. Knowing Shuangshuang couldn't use it, they still gave her a pair of shoes! And such ordinary shoes at that. In the past, these would have been cheap shoes worth only a few dozen yuan, not to mention they're practically worthless now!"
"She might have deliberately caused trouble. Zhao Di is quite stubborn; she even had a big argument with Hong Yuan at noon!"
...
The relatives and friends all started speculating, and even Liu Shuangshuang herself felt a little embarrassed.
"What's wrong? Jiang Yuan was just trying to be kind by giving me a gift. He didn't do anything wrong!"
The only one in the room still defending Jiang Yuan was Liu Zhaodi.
Jiang Yuan remained unfazed by the doubts and taunts around him. He simply said calmly, "These shoes aren't for you right now!"
"What is that?" Liu Shuangshuang's temper vanished instantly upon seeing Jiang Yuan's calm demeanor. She believed he hadn't done it on purpose, because since she became paralyzed, no grown man had ever been willing to squat down and speak to her. In their eyes, even though she was the eldest daughter of the Liu family, she was still disabled.
The man who was half-squatting down to give him shoes showed him only equality, without any contempt or pity!
"The you of the future, the you of tomorrow, or the you of tomorrow!" Jiang Yuan gently placed the shoe on the footrest of the wheelchair and said meaningfully, "As long as you want, you can wear it and run freely!"
“You…” Liu Shuangshuang listened intently.
Yes, everyone thought she had gotten used to spending her life in a wheelchair, and that she could pass the time by writing and playing the zither. Little did they know that what she wanted to do most was to take one step, two steps, or even countless steps!
"You guys eat, I'm going back to my room to rest!" Jiang Yuan stood up and left without looking back.
"Jiang Yuan!" Liu Zhaodi wanted to chase after him, but Liu Hongyuan grabbed her with a gloomy expression: "Sit down. Your eldest sister is finally willing to celebrate her birthday. If you leave again, she won't be in the mood to eat!"
“Sister…” Liu Zhaodi glanced at the dazed Liu Shuangshuang, “I’m sorry, Jiang Yuan didn’t mean it! He’s actually a really good person, always…”
"Liu Zhaodi, just because you think it's good doesn't mean everyone else thinks it's good!" Liu Mu interrupted Liu Zhaodi with a sneer, and continued sarcastically, "Perhaps it's not impossible that we share the same bad taste!"
"Liu Mu, I think you're asking for a beating!" Liu Zhaodi was already furious, and now she couldn't hold back.
"Zhao Di, which room is Jiang Yuan resting in?"
When the two were slamming their fists on the table in a fit of anger, Liu Shuangshuang, the hostess of the family dinner, asked a question that seemed completely unbelievable.
"Big sister, what's wrong?" Liu Zhaodi just thought her older sister was going to cause trouble for Jiang Yuan.
"Just tell me where he is!" Liu Shuangshuang seemed very anxious.
"It's in my room!" Liu Zhaodi was also a little at a loss; she rarely saw her older sister so anxious.
Liu Shuangshuang put the guzheng into her storage ring, then said apologetically, "Dear friends and family, I have something to attend to and need to leave for a while. Please forgive me if I haven't been able to entertain you properly!"
"I'll go with you!" Liu Zhaodi also wanted to get away.
"No need, I want to go alone!" Liu Shuangshuang said, having mustered all her courage. She didn't know what price Jiang Yuan would demand, but she was mentally prepared, so she didn't want Zhao Di to worry.
"Shuangshuang, where are you going?" Liu Hongyuan asked.
"You guys continue eating, I'll be back in a bit!" Liu Shuangshuang pushed her wheelchair toward Liu Zhaodi's room.
The Liu family members in the hall were completely dumbfounded. What was going on? Because of a young man's tactlessness, they had given him a pair of shoes, and now even the main character of today's banquet had left!
"Everyone, keep eating. Shuangshuang will be back soon!" Although Liu Hongyuan didn't know what had happened, he chose to trust his eldest daughter.
"Second Miss, Yuquan toasts you!"
...
"Ah, that feels so good!" Jiang Yuan stretched comfortably as he retreated to his room. "I hate those banquets the most. There's no food, just endless talking. I'd rather go home and sleep!"
Just as Jiang Yuan was about to lie down, a gentle greeting came from outside the door.
"Young Master Jiang, are you inside?"
"You've arrived so quickly!" Jiang Yuan said with a smile.
"The door is open, you can come right in!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Liu Shuangshuang pushed open the door and came in carrying a pair of shoes.
"Greetings, Young Master Jiang!" Liu Shuangshuang placed her shoes on her lap and bowed.
Jiang Yuan asked with great interest, "Why is elder sister being so polite? This shouldn't be the way you treat your brother-in-law!"
“Young Master Jiang is joking. Based on my understanding of Zhao Di, you two are probably not really a couple!” Liu Shuangshuang turned around, locked the door, and then maneuvered her wheelchair closer to Jiang Yuan.
