Chapter 613
The emerald jade pendant inscripted with the dragon and phoenix symbolizing prosperity, wasn’t that the gift Granny Shen wanted to give to her granddaughter?
Ye Xingguang was stunned for a moment. So, the granddaughter that Granny Shen mentioned was her?
Pfft—noveldrama
No wonder Xia Yanyan looked so upset?
Ye Xingguang suddenly understood!
Xia Yanyan had wanted to impress Granny Shen with an extravagant gift, but Granny Shen had given that same extravagant gift to her and so, didn’t Xia Yanyan just spend two hundred million to buy her an engagement gift?
...
“Thank you, Miss Xia.” Ye Xingguang’s voice was filled with sincerity!
This was probably the most valuable gift her sister had ever given her in her life, “How could I possibly accept such an expensive gift from Miss Xia, it must have been a great expense for her?”
Xia Yanyan could barely maintain her elegant facade as she stared at Ye Xingguang, wishing she could take the gift back immediately. But it was already given away, and it would be embarrassing to take it back now. Who knew how upset and frustrated Xia Yanyan felt at this moment?
But since she was the one who offered the gift, she had no choice but to smile, “Don’t be modest, it’s just a token of my affection.”
“In that case, I won’t be humble. I heard Miss Xia has submitted a marriage application to the government. I just so happen to have a gift here for you too, wishing you find your ideal husband and have twins within a year.”
It would be best if she had twins within a year, four in two years, six in four years, giving birth to many ‘national treasures’, contributing to the nation.
Ye Xingguang gave the gift she had originally prepared for Granny Shen to Xia Yanyan. She never took advantage of others and was quite generous in giving.
The more delicious the meal was for Ye Xingguang, the more frustrating it was for Xia Yanyan. After the meal ended and she got into her own chauffeur-driven car, she finally vented her anger by smashing her mobile phone. No matter how much she vented in the car, it just couldn’t relieve the frustration in her heart!
All of Granny Shen’s favorite students wanted to drive her home, but Granny Shen didn’t let them. She wanted to go to the hospital to visit Ye Xingguang’s father, so she got in Ye Xingguang’s car.
Ye Xingguang felt a tremendous amount of pressure. She wasn’t very confident in her driving skills. If she had known earlier, she would have asked the driver to drive. Now, she was driving at a modest speed of 30 mph, crawling slowly along the motorway.
She didn’t forget to assure Granny Shen: “Don’t worry Granny Shen, my driving skills are really good.”
Granny Shen saw her nervousness and smiled kindly, “No worries, you can drive slowly. It’s a good opportunity for me to see how the imperial city has changed.”
In truth, it wasn’t like Granny Shen hadn’t been to the imperial city for many years. In fact, she came once or twice every year to visit old friends. Although she kept a low profile and the outside world didn’t know about it, every time she came to the imperial city, she found many more skyscrapers, making it difficult to remember the roads.
Outside the small villa of the hospital, Bai Lanwu was accompanying Song Chuanqi for a walk in the courtyard.
After the surgery, Song Chuanqi had been bedridden. It was only these few days that he could start walking. The doctor said that he needed to be more active, so even if Song Chuanqi didn’t want to move, Bai Lanwu would still drag her husband to walk more in the courtyard.
When Granny Shen arrived, the couple went back inside together and sat in the living room to entertain her.
Knowing that there was a guest at home, Ye Junqing especially got off work early today. On his way, he asked Ji Qishu, who was accompanying him to visit Tang Zhou in the hospital, to stop by Qiaowei Pavilion to buy their pastries.
Qiaowei Pavilion was a famous specialty of the imperial city. Many tourists who came to the imperial city would take a few boxes with them. Especially, they suited Granny Shen’s taste. In the past, Xiaoyuwei often bought pastries from Qiaowei Pavilion and sent them to Granny Shen on the island. Ye Junqing still remembered this to this day.
