The bracelet was a gift from Grandma Lu, along with a gift of 1,000 yuan.
The gold and gemstone bracelet was a gift from Jiang Yue; it was the latest design from their jewelry store. It was selling very well. The one Jiang Yue gave Zhou Li, however, was a custom-made piece.
"Grandma, please don't scold me, I did refuse..."
After hearing her granddaughter's words, Grandma Zhou's expression softened.
"Mom, the Lu family is just being polite, please don't be angry. Lili is a sensible child..." Zhou Li's mother also tried to persuade her.
Grandma Zhou and Grandma Lu knew each other, but they weren't very close.
The Lu family.
Grandma Lu looked at Jiang Yue with a smile and said.
"This child was practically raised by your aunt. The Zhou family has good character..."
"I also really like Lili. I'll try to get to know Lili better in the future."
“I like Pear too.” Sanbao, who was playing with his toys nearby, echoed his mother’s words.
Grandma Lu and Jiang Yue both laughed when they heard Sanbao's words.
"Sanbao, you can't call her Lili anymore. You have to call her Auntie from now on."
Sanbao tilted his head and looked at his mother with a puzzled expression when he heard her words.
She had heard of many titles, but this was the first time she had ever heard of "aunt."
"Xiao Jin is your cousin, and Li Li will be Xiao Jin's cousin's wife in the future, so you have to call her cousin's wife, understand?"
"Sanbao understands."
Sanbao got on the bicycle and nodded obediently in response.
At the New Beijing Grand Hotel.
Mr. Ann looked at Jenny across from him, with Smith sitting next to her.
He was very annoyed and wished he could find someone to kill this older brother.
He'd tried this before, but failed twice. Now in China, he wanted to contact people in the underworld to deal with his boss. But his boss always had dozens of men with him whenever he went out.
They are not easy to deal with.
Moreover, he couldn't know his elder brother's whereabouts in advance.
The people he had bribed before have already been dealt with by his older brother.
"Jenny, after we've eaten, shall we go see a movie together?"
Upon hearing Mr. Ann's invitation, Jenny shook her head and declined.
"I have work to do tonight."
Mr. An narrowed his eyes slightly. In the past month or so, he had tried everything he could, but Jenny had not changed her attitude at all.
His older brother, who is usually so busy, now spends every day in this hotel. It's as if he's deliberately trying to spite him and ruin his marriage.
With that thought in mind, he had a new idea.
Regardless of whether Jenny breaks off the engagement or not, he could ask his father to arrange a marriage for his older brother. There are quite a few impoverished families in Y country now. Those families would definitely be very happy if they knew they could form a marriage alliance with his older brother.
And this matter doesn't even require the eldest brother's approval. The father's involvement is sufficient.
He couldn't let his older brother steal Jenny away.
Thinking about this made him feel even better.
Mr. Ann picked up his glass and smiled at Smith.
Seeing Mr. Ann's expression, Smith understood perfectly well what his younger brother was up to now. However, he wasn't the same person he used to be.
He is not afraid of any conspiracy, whether overt or covert.
He also had people around Jenny. He contacted his father's former mistresses as well; those women were quite capable and could be useful in dealing with Ms. An.
At that time, Ms. An's attention will also be diverted to those people.
They won't have time to think about dealing with him.
Jenny laughed when she saw Smith and Mr. Ann's actions.
