When Su's mother reported the amount, Su Ruowan was shocked. She thought that the total amount of those gifts would not exceed ten thousand.
She really didn't look closely, mainly out of respect for Huo Shengnian. Even if she did, Huo Shengnian was blind and couldn't see her little movements, but she didn't want to give Huo Shengnian the illusion that she didn't trust him.
So, she didn't care about him preparing a gift for the meeting.
Little did they know that Huo Shengnian was so generous that he gave ten thousand just to Su's mother?
he……
We told him not to show off, so why doesn't this guy listen?
It's a bit infuriating.
It would be fine if he really had money, but the point is that he is so poor now that all he has left is his house and car. He is still showing off his wealth. He is just trying to show off. How will he live in the future?
Isn't he afraid that a greedy villain like Su's mother will keep pestering him until his blood pressure is drained?
Xu Tangtang on the side also didn't expect that Huo Shengnian would be so generous. Is this young boss so handsome and rich?
Could it be that Su Ruowan went home before deliberately crying poor?
"Thank you, Xiao Huo." While thanking her, Su's mother quickly put the two cards into her bag, as if she was afraid that Huo Shengnian would change his mind and want to take them back.
"My parents have worked hard to raise Wanwan over the years. It's not easy. In the future, I will work with Wanwan to honor them." Huo Shengnian's words were flawless.
Huo Shengnian did everything he could to save face and benefit Su Ruowan, but Su Ruowan didn't feel any gratitude.
She also felt that she was a bit like an ungrateful person at this moment.
But she was really dissatisfied. Didn’t she tell him everything last night?
She is not Su's biological daughter, so why is he still like this?
The gift for the first meeting was so generous. With the betrothal gift, wedding and other items that followed, there would be countless reasons for Su's mother to ask for money in the future. If he didn't have money to give her, Su's mother would definitely be thinking about his house.
He placed the meat he had worked so hard to earn in front of the mother wolf. It was a naked temptation. What was Huo Shengnian thinking?
She felt that this guy was even dumber than her.
Why--
She didn't know he would do this. If she had known earlier, she would have stopped him and protected his few remaining assets.
She was also careless and didn't pay much attention to anything.
This is not right. In the future, they need to communicate more before doing anything to avoid similar incidents like today.
What happened today must never happen again.
"Xiao Huo, you gave too much." Father Su reminded in a low voice.
"That's the son-in-law who's treating us both on behalf of Wanwan. It means that the son-in-law loves Wanwan and the couple has a good relationship. You don't understand, right? Wanwan--" Mother Su was very happy. She could eat even if she was given a little more.
Who would complain about being paid too much?
It really is.
Su Ruowan pursed her lips and said nothing. Her mother's greedy nature was really glaring.
If it weren't for Su's father, there would be no meal today. That's why she didn't want to let Su's mother take so much advantage.
She has already given Xie Qinghui the advantage, but she is still so greedy?
That's too much.
However, Huo Shengnian was not done yet. He took out the watch and handed it to Su Baiqing.
Su Baiqing saw that he also had a gift, so he put down his chopsticks, reached out to take it, looked it over, and had a dull expression on his face, not realizing the value of the watch at all.
No one in the Su family knew the value of the watch. Only Su Ruo had seen such a famous watch when she worked in a luxury store at night when she was in college.
The brand of this watch is the same as the one on Xie Qinghui's hand.
However, because of the box, the Su family couldn’t see the watch inside and didn’t know its specific value.
"Huo Shengnian--" Su Ruowan tilted his head and called him softly. This watch was not cheap, so why did he give Su Baiqing such an expensive gift?
Just looking at Su Baiqing, he also wears a watch of this brand?
It’s not that she, as an elder sister, looks down on Su Baiqing, but Su Baiqing has really disappointed her over the years.
"It's okay. I bought it many years ago and have only worn it once or twice. It's just sitting there anyway. I hope my brother doesn't dislike it." Huo Shengnian's voice was neither loud nor soft, just loud enough for everyone to hear.
Hearing it was a second-hand watch, Su Baiqing immediately felt disgusted. He threw the box aside and picked up the chopsticks again with an unhappy look on his face. "No, Mr. Huo, how can you give a gift like that? Giving me a watch you don't want, who are you looking down on?"
"Su Baiqing, he is your brother-in-law." Father Su reminded in a deep voice, this brat, his words were too disrespectful.
What does a small boss named Huo mean?
"Hmph, brother-in-law? If the family wasn't cooking today, do you think I would come here to eat at the same table with him?" Su Baiqing didn't care about his father's anger at all. After arguing with his father, he stared at Su Ruowan.
"And you, Su Ruowan, can you be more discerning for once? You've sacrificed several years of your youth for that ungrateful Xie Qinghui. Now, you're planning to sacrifice a few more years for another blind man? Or have you decided that you're willing to dedicate your entire life to him?"
"Su Baiqing——" Su's father stood up angrily, puffing his beard and glaring.
My chest feels tight. This rebellious son is my fault as a father. I didn't teach him well.
"Why are you shouting so loudly? There's only one disabled person in this room. I'm not blind or deaf, so there's no need to shout."
With a slap, Su's father slapped Su Baiqing in the face. This was really intolerable.
What's wrong with this kid today?
Mother Su's face turned pale. She stood up to protect her son. "Look at you, today is such a beautiful day, why did you hit someone? Bai Qing, you are really something. A wise man never suffers a loss in front of him. Hurry up and apologize to your father, your sister, and your brother-in-law. Tell them you were wrong."
