Chapter 378 Thank you, Yuli
When it came time for the guests to send their blessings to the birthday girl, the employees came in a hurry and had no time to prepare gifts carefully. Some of them came empty-handed, while others bought some dolls, flowers and other things that little girls liked on the way.
Oh my, a humble office worker only has a few thousand dollars a month, so it’s already very good for me to buy gifts worth tens or hundreds of dollars.
Some actors, singers, agents and other people with higher incomes also took the opportunity to give relatively better gifts, hoping that the company could get more resources. There is no other way. I cannot afford the high penalty for breach of contract, so I can only go forward and retreat with the company.
Chi Feng had no intention of accepting gifts from his employees. He was already grateful that they came over to avoid making the situation awkward.
He was also thoughtful and sent red envelopes in the group, thanking everyone for coming all the way here.
It has to be said that Chi Feng has quite a lot of skills to have risen from an upstart outside the province to become the head of a leading company in the media industry. Many employees are genuinely willing to help him through the difficult times, but it's a pity that he is severely held back by his wife and daughter.
But Chi Feng did not blame Xia Shuyu and Chi Mingchu.
He was too busy with work to pay enough attention to Shuyu, and failed to educate Mingchu well. So, as a husband and father, he is also responsible.
Chi Mingchu didn't think so much about it. She just felt that these gifts were so shabby that they were unbearable to look at.
What a bunch of poor fellows, bah!
"Mingchu, happy birthday." Chi Jiangmo gave Chi Mingchu a Bulgari necklace, which was the same as the coming-of-age gift he gave to Sheng Beibei.
In Chi Jiangmo's heart, Chi Mingchu and Sheng Beibei are both his sisters.
In the past, he always subconsciously wronged Sheng Beibei, but now Sheng Beibei no longer needs his protection. She has a family who truly loves her.
This is also good.
The Sheng family no longer suppresses the Chi family. The public is forgetful. As long as they can persist in producing good works, I believe the Chi family will regain its former glory.
Although Mingchu did some bad things to Beibei, everyone could only criticize her a few words. As long as she lived a good life and made her life wonderful and meaningful, people would one day forgive her for her youth and ignorance.
The world is always very tolerant to outstanding people.
"Thank you, brother." Chi Mingchu also knew that she had misunderstood Chi Jiangmo. Her disappearance had nothing to do with her brother. Even if her brother didn't take her out secretly, her grandmother would sooner or later find an opportunity to throw her away.
The Chi family will be inherited by her brother in the future, so she definitely cannot make enemies with her brother.
After all, her food, clothing and other expenses now all depend on the Chi family.
It’s not that she doesn’t have the ambition to compete with Chi Jiangmo for property. She is the future mistress of the Ji family. Why should she go to the trouble to snatch the property from the Chi family, which has a rotten reputation?
The Ji family had no intention of fulfilling the marriage contract, but they still had to observe the necessary etiquette.
No matter what, Chi Mingchu is still Ji Youli's nominal fiancée. How could it be wrong for her to not show any expression at all?
Ji Xiuci picked out a piece of calligraphy from his own collection and gave it to Chi Mingchu. It was probably worth hundreds of thousands, but he didn't care much about it. This little money was just a drop in the bucket for the Ji family.
"Mingchu, congratulations on becoming an adult."
"Thank you, uncle." Chi Mingchu took the calligraphy work with great care.
She knew that Ji Xiuci was a calligraphy enthusiast and loved collecting works by famous calligraphers. Uncle gave her his collection, which proves that he still values her very much, right?
Originally, she was worried that her uncle would stop her and Ji Youli from being together because the Chi family was in poverty.
She knew that her uncle was not a snob.
"This is a gift from your auntie. Happy birthday." Su Man put a jewel bracelet on Chi Mingchu. She bought it while shopping a few days ago. It is a popular style.
Do you want her to give Chi Mingchu a family heirloom like she gave Sheng Beibei? I'm afraid I'm not dreaming.
"Mingchu, you look so beautiful today."
Su Man was smiling the whole time. No matter how much she disliked Chi Mingchu, she would not show it in front of so many people. Wasn't it just an act? After these years in the Ji family, her acting skills have been honed to perfection.
"Thank you, Auntie." There was no more contempt in Chi Mingchu's eyes for Su Man.
In the past, she thought that Su Man was just Ji Youli’s stepmother, and there was no need to respect her like the future mother-in-law. Now that the gap between the two families is a little bit big, she has to get along well with Su Man and let Su Man say good things to Ji Xiuci.
I believe Su Man does not want to choose another woman who is against her in every way as the future mistress of the Ji family, right?
However, Chi Mingchu did not forget that Su Man's son Gu Yanchuan helped Sheng Beibei to harm her severely. If you can't deal with Gu Yanchuan, then take it back from Su Man.
Su Man did not give birth to a child for Ji Xiuci, so won’t he still have to act according to her mood when he gets old?
She has to endure the humiliation now, it won't be too late to deal with Su Man after she gets to the top. Anyway, Su Man is not Ji Youli’s biological mother, so he won’t care. Since Ji Youli hates Gu Yanchuan so much, he must hate Su Man too, right?
"Happy birthday." Ji Youli casually handed a brooch to Chi Mingchu.
Ji Youli has been studying like crazy in hell mode recently and has no energy to choose a gift. He had instructed Butler Zhong to buy this brooch, and it would be fine as long as giving it away would not embarrass him, the great Ji University genius and heir of the Ji family.
Chi Mingchu was somewhat flattered: "Thank you, Yuli."
Ji Youli gave her a brooch.
The brooch is pinned close to the heart. Does he want to tell her that she has always been the most important person in his heart?
Ji Youli had no idea what Chi Mingchu was thinking about. Now he wanted to dump her immediately. He had already made up his mind that he would have a good talk with his father when he got home. It was really pointless to maintain this ridiculous engagement.
Dad has already seen that the Chi family is not as strong as before, so he should agree to let him break off the engagement, right?
It has been several months since the incident in the Chi family. Proposing a cancellation of the engagement now is not considered as adding insult to injury. I believe that people outside will understand.
After all, Chi Mingchu is a vicious woman.
The Chi family previously said that Chi Mingchu had returned from abroad and was suspected of marriage fraud.
Moreover, Ji Youli was planning to pursue Sheng Beibei, and it was so cumbersome to have this damn engagement.
While Sheng Beibei and Gu Yanchuan haven't really confirmed their relationship, he has to act quickly to win Sheng Beibei back.
Dad should be happy to see him and Sheng Beibei together, right?
Ji Xiuci stayed and chatted with Chi Feng for a while. Noticing that Chi Feng's attitude towards him had become slightly more flattering, he felt a little sad. He and Chi Feng have been partners for many years, and he never thought that things would end up like this.
It's all the Chi family's fault. Why bother Sheng Beibei for no reason?
Ji Xiuci is a businessman and he will not sacrifice his own interests for this pitiful friendship.
They are already people from different worlds. Unless the Chi family makes a comeback, the marriage between the Ji and Chi families will probably not be possible.
