Chapter 703: Gift

Carry plates?

Fang Yi almost could not control her expression!

Her original intention was to help as the host. After all, because Fang Yi’s parents had already pa.s.sed away, it could be said that Madam Lin Jing had taken extra care of her and Zheng Zhi in their place.

How could Fang Yi come here to serve the plates?

In the special department, she, a P10, did not care about Xue Xi at all. When she came to the house, she had originally intended to mock Xue Xi, but now, Fang Yi was being told she could only serve food? She was not the Lin family’s housekeeper!

Lin Jing’s thoughts were very simple.

The two families were having dinner together tomorrow, and she had to coax her best friend so that she would not be angry.

Actually, in the beginning, she had come into contact with Ye Li because she had met her at the airport and felt that the two of them could really get along well.

Later, when she realized that the other party was her son’s mother-in-law, she’d lost her chance to clarify this. Hence, she now had to rush to say it and things ended up like this.

However, during this period of time, she’d realized that Ye Li was really not bad.

Because of her ident.i.ty, Lin Jing was surrounded by people who wanted to please her and benefit from her. Hence, Lin Jing had not enjoyed such sincere treatment for a long time.

She really treated Ye Li as a good friend.

Now, for her son’s marriage, it was very likely that she would anger her best friend and lose this friend. Just thinking about this made her feel depressed.

After rejecting Fang Yi’s request, Lin Jing sighed.

Fang Yi did not dare to say anything about helping. Instead, she accompanied her to clean up the house and set the menu for the guests tomorrow night.

Looking at the dishes on the menu, Fang Yi realized that Lin Jing was indeed the most magnanimous person. Even though she did not like Xiang Huai’s girlfriend, she was still very polite.

After discussing with Lin Jing for a while, Fang Yi bade farewell and saw Xiang Huai returning home.

The moment he entered, Lin Jing immediately mocked, “Yo, who is this? What a rare guest our family is receiving. Why? You have something on tomorrow, so you came back quickly today? Are you afraid that I won’t entertain your girlfriend well?”

Faced with Lin Jing’s words, Xiang Huai did not panic at all. He raised an eyebrow and praised, “The banquet prepared by Madam Lin will definitely be fine. I only came back to learn how to live with you, didn’t I?”

Lin Jing snorted when she heard this.

After saying that, Xiang Huai walked to Lin Jing’s side and rubbed her shoulders. “When is Dad coming back?”

Lin Jing: “…Tomorrow afternoon! He and his son are really busy. I’m the only one who’s free. Ha!”

Xiang Huai immediately said, “I’ll have to talk to Dad about this. How can I leave such an important matter to you, Madam Lin? Should I call him now?”

Lin Jing nodded and looked at him.

In the end, before Xiang Huai could call, he said, “Mom, my phone is in debt. Why don’t you give me ten million yuan first and let me renew it?”

“…Scram!”

In the end, Xiang Huai took Lin Jing’s bank card in satisfaction and walked out easily.

Fang Yi looked at him.

She was already used to it.

This usually cold man would only be more gentle when facing Lin Jing. She wondered what kind of att.i.tude he would have when facing Xue Xi.

Xue Xi must really be going after him, right?

As Fang Yi thought this, she took a step forward and suddenly said, “Brother Huai.”

Xiang Huai stopped and turned to look at her coldly. When he heard this form of address and recalled the WeChat message she had sent last time, his eyes turned cold.

His voice was as cold as ice. “Why are you here?”

Fang Yi: “?”

She had been here for a long time and had even seen him bickering with Lin Jing. Was she so invisible that this person did not see her?

Xiang Huai really did not notice her. After all, the housekeeper at home was also busy.

Fang Yi lowered her head. “It’s like this. I heard that your girlfriend is going to visit tomorrow. She can’t possibly come empty-handed, right? I think that I know Auntie Lin’s hobby very well. Why don’t I recommend a gift to you guys?”

Xiang Huai had returned to ask for money to buy a gift. When he heard this, his eyes flickered.

Fang Yi knew Lin Jing the best. This was true.

After all, Lin Jing did not have a daughter and had been very concerned about the orphans since they were young.

Hence, he nodded. “Sure.”

Fang Yi opened WeChat and sent him a link to something expensive. “Brother Huai, Auntie Lin likes this the most. Of course, the quality of certain precious items might not be guaranteed. I’m just sending it to you to take a look. It’s better if you guys go to a physical store to buy it.”

Xiang Huai nodded.

Fang Yi narrowed her eyes again and smiled. “Brother Huai, just forward it to Xue Xi. She’ll be able to see it that way.”

If a certain item’s link was directly forwarded, one would also see who had sent it to Xiang Huai.

Fang Yi thought that if she were Xue Xi and her boyfriend had sent her a link saying that it was to be a gift for his mother, and yet the link had been forwarded to him by another girl, she would definitely feel sad.

This was another way for Fang Yi to declare her sovereignty.

She did not care about Xue Xi.

She felt that there was no need to deal with her, and she disdained to do so. However, she still had to pay attention to such details.

How could Fang Yi’s thoughts escape Xiang Huai’s sharp eyes?

Seeing this person’s eyes flicker, Xiang Huai more or less understood her thoughts.

However…

Last time, when Fang Yi sent him a WeChat message, the little kid had just triggered the black cat’s special power and ended up stuck to him for the whole night.

This time…

Would the little kid get jealous?

At this thought, Xiang Huai said, “Sure.”

He directly forwarded Fang Yi’s link to Xue Xi and sent her a message: “My mother will probably like this. It might be better to keep this in mind in case you guys meet in the future, don’t you think? If you guys meet, there’s no harm in buying it for her.”

The little kid only knew that she was going to Auntie Lin’s house tomorrow, but how could she know that she was going to meet her future mother-in-law?

Hence, Xiang Huai could not reveal this intention for the time being.

Hmm…

It was his mother who’d lied to his mother-in-law, not him.

Since it’s like that, the little kid would not vent her anger on him.

Xiang Huai thought to himself.
