Chapter 2090: Does mom want to choose which one to use?
Her lips curled into a smile.”Still, I think uncle is brewing something. I don’t think he’ll admit defeat so easily, nor will he …”
“You two are already at the door. Why don’t you come in? what are you doing standing there?”
Qu xiujie’s voice came from inside the house, his aura loud and clear.
“Coming, coming.”
Ji Ziming hurriedly replied, and only then did qu xiujie stop talking and wait for the two to enter.
“Uncle, what is my mom talking about?”
Ji Ziming walked into the house and saw qu xiujie half-sitting on the floor while his mother was lying on the sofa next to him. The two of them seemed to be living in harmony with their eyes closed.
“I’m asking your mother if she wants to choose which one to use. ”
Qu xiujie’s reply was sincere, but mother Ji, who was sleeping on the sofa, did not appreciate it. “Why don’t you just say that you want to use it? why do you have to say that I want to use it?”
“You’re not being sincere. I clearly prepared it for you to use.”
Qu xiujie was holding a gift from GUCCI for a senior member, and mother Ji was holding two custom-made handbags. They were both priced at seven figures and were considered expensive among expensive gifts.
“Since you’re letting me use it, why are you still holding onto it?”
Madam Ji suddenly sat up and looked at the man sitting at the stall, her eyes revealing a gloating look as if she had seen through his thoughts.
“I’m just helping you choose. ”
Qu xiujie was still trying to find an excuse for his actions, not willing to admit that he had taken a fancy to mother Ji’s bag.
“If you like it, I’ll give it to you.”
Seeing the love in his eyes that could no longer be hidden, mother Ji could only take a step back.
“Really?”
Qu xiujie’s eyes were bright. When he heard his mother’s words, he quickly picked up the brown handbag and turned to her.”Ge Ge, do you think your mother will like this bag?”
The whole family suddenly realized that this was the reason qu xiujie wanted.
“Uncle, are you giving the bag to my mother?”
PEI GE was surprised. Seeing the determination in his eyes, she continued to ask,”uncle, my mother doesn’t really use these.”
She was in a difficult position and had to tell him this, but she was afraid that he would not accept it.
Before she left the country, Zhang manhua was already a thrifty person. After leaving the country, even though she had become rich, she did not splurge because of that and, instead, remained diligent and thrifty.
“This is not a bad greeting gift.”
Qu xiujie was pleased with his own judgment. She did not know that her GUCCI bag was already engraved with mother Ji’s name. As a high-class customer of the GUCCI store, this was a privilege.
Qu xiujie did not know, but she did.
“Are you afraid that your mom won’t like the gift?”
Qu xiujie looked at her with hurt in his eyes, but he did not say anything more.
“No, uncle, that’s not what I meant. You’re overthinking it.”
She stood still and looked at the man before her, her voice gentle.
“Uncle, you’ve really misunderstood Ge GE’s intentions. What she meant was that if you want to give this bag to Ge GE’s mother, you can consider giving her something else. After all, this is a gift from my mother’s GUCCI store, and it’s not very decent no matter what.”
Ji Ziming stood beside PEI GE, his deep eyes showing a hint of stubbornness as he looked at qu xiujie indifferently.
“Is that what you mean?”
Qu xiujie cleared up the misunderstanding and came to I sudden realization that it was not that PEI GE was unwilling to accept such a gift, but that his ‘meeting gift’ was too shabby. It was actually a bag that he had shamelessly obtained from the older woman i
Thinking about it carefully, he had indeed been too careless. He actually didn’t understand a woman’s heart at all.
“Uncle, you’ll know once you meet my mother. She’s an easy person to get along with.”
She softly said, trying to break the awkwardness in his heart.
“Alright, I got it.”
Qu xiujie looked at the bag in his hand and placed it back on the coffee table beside his mother. His voice was filled with disdain.”You should have said so earlier. I didn’t bring so much money with me when I left the qu family. It’s all thanks to your mother for not buying me a present in R City.”
The more qu xiujie spoke, the more aggrieved he became. He did not forget to look at his mother, as if everything he was suffering now was all because of her.
“Why are you looking at me? are you blaming me for not buying you a present or …”
Before she could finish, qu xiujie, who was sitting on the carpet, stood up. His handsome face showed a hint of impatience as he looked at the older woman.”It’s all because you’re unwilling. Otherwise, I wouldn’t care about your bag.”
“Old man, how can you say that? you just said you wanted to thank my bag, but now you want to burn the bridge after crossing the river?”
Mother Ji’s eyes were filled with anger as she glared at him.”Old man, if you dare to touch anything of mine again, I guarantee that you’ll be kicked out of the Ji family’s house and onto the road tonight.”
Mother Ji was also furious. She had never seen this kind of expression on his face.
“Old woman, if I don’t touch your things then I won’t touch your things. Do you think I, qu xiujie, can’t find anything else? Besides, I’ll lose face if I leave just because you tell me to!”
Qu xiujie retorted angrily. The two men, who were standing beside them, looked at the two of them in embarrassment. The quietest and scariest time in the house was when there were no more quarrels.
Mother Ji was not afraid of qu xiujie’s louder voice and wanted to rebut him no matter what. However, before she could say anything, PEI GE’s words extinguished all her anger.
“Mom, don’t hold it against uncle, okay?”
Her voice was tinged with sadness, not knowing if her words had any effect.
“I won’t argue with him, I’ll argue with him!”
Mother Ji had originally made up her mind to chase qu xiujie to the main road outside the Ji family’s Villa for the night, but because of PEI GE’s few words, she gave up on that idea. Moreover, she had no intention of letting qu xiujie spend the night at the Ji family’s Villa.
