Chapter 68 The best gift
A trace of resentment flashed in Yu Lan's eyes. When she saw Li Qingjia's angry face, she suppressed the pain in her face and turned to look at Nan Yu.
"Miss Nan, I'm sorry. I just said something that shouldn't have been said. We in the Song family really like your gift."
After saying that, she bent down reluctantly.
Li Qingjia on the side also said: "Miss Nan, this gift is your sincerity, and it is the best gift I have received today. These young people are ignorant, so please don't be angry."
Seeing this, Nan Yu smiled faintly.
"Madam Song, I'm not angry. I'm glad you like this gift."
Li Qingjia quickly said: "Miss Nan, I like it very much. You are so thoughtful."
Everyone was stunned as they looked at this scene.
Nan Qingqing, who saw this scene, also felt confused.
Since when did Nan Yu become so popular with Grandma Song?
Yu Lan stood up slowly, his right cheek was red and swollen, and there was a hint of hatred in the depths of his eyes as he looked at Nan Yu.
She took the white jade ruyi and presented it to Li Qingjia, saying with a flattering smile, "Mom, this is a gift Qingqing prepared especially for you."
Nan Qingqing immediately said obediently: "Grandma Song, I wish you good fortune as vast as the East Sea and a long life as great as the Southern Mountains~"
Li Qingjia looked at the white jade ruyi with an unhappy expression, and said disdainfully: "This white jade ruyi is simply vulgar and reeks of money. Put it away and stop getting in the way."
Yu Lan, holding the white jade ruyi, was stunned and couldn't help but say, "Mom, Qingqing searched for this gift two months in advance and spent a lot of time and energy to get it at the auction."
Li Qingjia said coldly: "Yu Lan, don't you understand what I said? If you don't want to keep it, then return it to her. My Song family doesn't need it."
Yu Lan met those fierce eyes and dared not speak any more.
Upon hearing this, Nan Qingqing's face turned blue and red, and she was furious. However, she dared not say it openly, so she could only hold her anger and pretend to be pitiful.
"Grandma Song, if you don't like the white jade ruyi, I'll prepare another gift for you later."
Li Qingjia refused without hesitation.
"unnecessary."
Nan Qingqing’s face was pale and her fragile body was shaky, looking extremely pitiful.
Yu Lan felt pity and immediately winked at Song Lihan.
Song Lihan, who was watching the show, rubbed his nose helplessly, his voice mature and hoarse.
"Grandma, I think Nan Qingqing's gift is nice. I can see that she put a lot of thought into it. Just accept it."
Li Qingjia glanced at his most beloved grandson and said, "Okay."
Then she turned to Nan Yu and said, "Miss Nan, please take a seat."
After saying that, she ignored everyone else and surrounded Nan Yu to sit inside.
As soon as they went in, Song Lihan stood up and clapped his hands, breaking the stiff atmosphere.
"Everyone, continue. Don't worry about the little episode just now."
The quiet banquet became lively again.
Nan Qingqing stood there, looking at Nan Yu's leaving back with red eyes.
She looked at Yu Lan, her tone full of grievance, "Auntie Lan, Grandma Song and Brother Li Han don't seem to like me very much. Let's forget about what you said before."
When Yu Lan heard this, she instantly became anxious.
She had looked for so many rich young ladies, but only Nan Qingqing caught her eye. How could she let it go?
She grabbed Nan Qingqing and whispered comforting words in her ear.
"Qingqing, Li Han is my son. I know best what he likes. He likes someone like you."
"It doesn't matter if the old lady doesn't like you now. As long as you make Li Han like you, the old lady will like you."
"By then, your foster sister won't matter to you!"
