Chapter 316 Bringing Li Jinxing Home
Nie Jinxi was stunned for a moment, then met her mocking gaze. She steeled herself and asked back with a look of grievance, "Cousin, is it because of Nie Yao and my identities that you've developed a grudge against me? For all these years, I've always treated you as my own cousin..."
"And then stabbed me in the back?" Yu Wanqing raised an eyebrow and asked back. Without waiting for Nie Jinxi's answer, she shook her head and sighed, "I still don't dare to have a cousin like that!"
"Look at what Wanqing said..." Uncle Nie couldn't help but speak, smiling to ease the somewhat tense atmosphere: "When did Jinxi stab you?"
Yu Wanqing was about to speak when the housekeeper came over and said to Elder Nie, "Master, the eldest lady has arrived with Master Li Jiu!"
"Please invite them in!" Old Nie ordered quickly.
The butler quickly responded respectfully and went straight to greet them, but before they had gone too far, Nie Yao and Li Jinxing entered the living room, followed by the driver, who was carrying bags of gifts in his hands.
"Grandpa, Dad, I'm back..."
Nie Yao took the lead in greeting Old Man Nie and Father Nie with a smile. Her gaze fell on the other members of the Nie family, and a hint of surprise flashed across her eyes.
She just told her father in advance that she would bring Li Jinxing back, but she didn't expect that all the members of the Nie family would be there at this time, even Nie Jinxi rushed back from school!
"I heard that you drove all the way back from the neighboring city. You must be tired. Come sit down and have a rest and drink some tea!" Father Nie said with a smile.
Elder Nie also slowly stood up with the help of Nie's father, and said with a smile to Li Jinxing and Nie Yao, "It's rare for Mr. Li and A Yao to come together, please sit down!"
"It's okay, not tired..." Nie Yao smiled faintly, and sat down on the sofa opposite Mr. Nie and Nie's father with Li Jinxing. She quickly pointed at the things in the driver's hand and asked the housekeeper to take it.
"These are some small gifts we brought from the neighboring city. I wonder if you like them!"
"You guys are such idiots! It's good that you're back. Why bring any gifts?" Father Nie shook his head. Nie Yao stuck out her tongue and pointed at Li Jinxing beside her, saying, "He picked them all!"
Li Jinxing raised the corners of his lips slightly, nodded slightly to Father Nie, and then gave Elder Nie a polite smile. He slowly said, "This is my first visit, and I don't know what Elder Nie and A Yao's father would like. I can only pick a few according to etiquette. I hope you like them!"
"Mr. Li Jiu, why are you so polite!" Father Nie said hurriedly with a smile, but in his heart he was very satisfied with Mr. Li Jiu's attitude when he came to visit him.
He had anticipated what Li Jiuye and A Yao were going to express when they came to visit for the first time. When he suspected that the two were living together, he had reminded A Yao. However, he did not expect that Li Jiuye would attach so much importance to A Yao that he would be willing to visit her not long after they started dating!
"Yes, it's a rare visit from Master Li Jiu, and it truly brings honor to our Nie family. He even brought a gift, which is truly very polite!"
The second son of the Nie family was afraid that Li Jinxing didn't notice him, so he quickly took over his eldest brother's words and said with a smile.
Li Jinxing just glanced at him lightly, then nodded to the driver and the housekeeper, asking them to open the gift boxes and show their gifts to Mr. Nie and Father Nie.
"This thousand-year-old ginseng comes from Changbai Mountain. It's very effective for nourishing the body. I bought it especially for you, Mr. Nie..."
"This small-leaf red sandalwood bracelet is for Mr. Nie. I saw you wearing one at the banquet before, and I guessed that Mr. Nie might like this kind of thing..."
