Chapter 214: “Both Parents of Your Parents Have Passed Away”
Hearing this, everyone felt strange.
“What’s wrong, old lady? Are you planning to adopt a granddaughter on the spot?” Lu Yuansi sneered slowly.
Old Madam Lu almost couldn’t hold her smile anymore. “…”
It was too difficult to get a granddaughter-in-law. This stupid grandsonof hers was so disappointing!
Just then, Mrs Qin and several other madams, who were unaware of the situation, walked over. When they saw Old Madam Lu, a glint flashed in their eyes.
Taking Old Madam Lu’s hand, she said with a smile, “Old Madam, today is your birthday party. Why are you standing outside in the cold wind? You’d better hurry back to the living room.”
With that, Mrs Qin glanced at Pei Yunge and after frowning slightly, she called out softly, “Jiaojiao, come and talk to your Grandma Lu.”
“Okay, then let’s go to the living room first.”
Old Madam Lu smiled. On the way, when she saw Qin Youjiao in a wheelchair, she frowned unconsciously. “Jiaojiao, what happened to your leg?”
“It’s nothing. I fell down the stairs accidentally. Don’t worry, I didn’t injure my bones. I’ll be fine in about a week.”
“Then you have to be careful in the future. It’s not good to have a scar on a girl’s leg.” Old Madam Lu nodded and advised.
…
In the living room.
“Ge’er, whose daughter are you?” Without waiting for Mrs Qin and Mrs Lu to settle down, Mrs Lu looked at Pei Yunge impatiently.
It was obvious that she was very interested in Pei Yunge.
However, when Mrs Qin heard this, her expression froze and she glanced at Pei Yunge coldly with disgust in her eyes.
It was as if she was afraid that others would associate her with Pei Yunge.
But who knew…
“Me?”
Pei Yunge slowly raised an eyebrow, before she chuckled slowly. “I lived in an orphanage.”
Old Madam Lu’s expression was pitiful. “Oh, both of your parents have passed away.”
Suddenly, Lu Yuansi, who was eating pasta, coughed lightly with his hand over his mouth as he choked.
Everyone was speechless.
What kind of suffocating scene was this?
At this moment, Old Madam Lu was still chatting happily with Pei Yunge. However, she did not notice how terrible Mrs Qin’s expression was.
Until Qin Yu returned from the bathroom.
Mrs Qin’s expression eased a little and she smiled coyly at Qin Youjiao. “Jiaojiao, did your Second Brother buy this bracelet from Country R for you?”
“Mm.”
A coy expression appeared on Qin Youjiao’s face, but she could not help looking at Qin Yu again. “This bracelet was handmade and there’s only one in the world.”
The madam, who was beside them, had a discerning gaze. “Isn’t this bracelet at least twenty to thirty million dollars!? Second Young Master really dotes on Miss Qin Youjiao!”
Many people present also noticed Qin Youjiao’s final sentence. There was only one in the world.
In that case, Qin Yu didn’t give it to Pei Yunge and only gave it to Qin Youjiao?!
Everyone had different thoughts, but they all felt that this little princess, who had been doted on by the Qin family for more than ten years, was indeed not easy to lose favor.
“Although Yu doesn’t come home often, he’s still willing to buy things for his sister.” Sensing that she had achieved her goal, Mrs Qin spoke with a smile.
Instead of looking at Mrs Qin, Qin Yu turned his head and chuckled. “Ge’er, why didn’t you wear any accessories to the party?”
Pei Yunge raised an eyebrow and looked at Qin Yu.
“You haven’t worn anything Second Brother bought for you before.”
Qin Yu chuckled as he took out an exquisite and pretty necklace from his pocket.
He suddenly approached Pei Yunge and pushed the dark hair around her neck away. His voice was so deep that it made one’s heart thump faster. “Second Brother will be very sad if you do this.”
