Chapter 247: Chapter 247: Others Buy Hardware, Second Brother Buys Five Jin

Mr. Mo said, "There’s a dinner tomorrow night, come with me."

Yun Xia looked slightly shocked, incredulously at the man beside her.

"You want to take me with you? To dine with your friends?" Yun Xia could hardly believe it.

Mr. Mo didn’t want her to go out, fearing she might run into enemies.

Now that he was letting her go out, Yun Xia was somewhat skeptical.

Mr. Mo finished a glass of water, and the agitation in his heart somewhat subsided.

Mr. Mo spoke up, "Come with me tomorrow, if you don’t want to go, then forget it."

"I’ll go, I want to go. If you want me to go, I’ll go," Yun Xia said with some anticipation.

Was Mr. Mo willing to let her appear in front of his friends because he liked her a bit?

Yun Xia didn’t dare ask more; her gentle eyes made Mr. Mo’s heart tremble.

"Don’t seduce me," Mr. Mo said coldly.

Yun Xia timidly sat back, "I didn’t."

"Don’t look at me with those eyes, and don’t look at anyone else like that."

Mr. Mo rose and walked toward the second floor.

Yun Xia watched him leave, touching her own face, she hadn’t even smiled, how had she seduced him?

...

Zhou Hongqi came back utterly drunk, holding a bag in his hand.

Liu Yanfang and Zhou Jingya were having dinner when they smelled the pungent aroma of alcohol and saw Zhou Hongqi, putting down their chopsticks.

Liu Yanfang said displeased, "Zhou Hongqi, how can you drink like this?"

Zhou Jingya, thinking of her own background, awkwardly stood up and walked towards Zhou Hongqi.

"Dad, did you go out to negotiate a partnership again? I’ll get Brother Zhengyang to help with the company. Don’t worry, Dad, I definitely won’t let the company go bankrupt."

As soon as Zhou Jingya finished speaking, she saw Zhou Hongqi pull out a large knife gleaming coldly from the bag.

Zhou Jingya, frightened, kept retreating, stepped on her own foot, and fell over.

Seeing this, Liu Yanfang quickly helped Zhou Jingya up, fearing Zhou Hongqi would chop her with the knife.

Liu Yanfang shouted angrily, "Zhou Hongqi, have you gone mad! Outsiders don’t know the matter about Xiao Ya not being your daughter, what’s the rush!"

Zhou Hongqi’s eyes, bloodshot and murderous, raised the knife pointing at Zhou Jingya and Li Yanfang, "How do you know outsiders don’t realize? Zhou Jingya, you still say the company won’t go bankrupt. If you hadn’t come back, the company wouldn’t have gone bankrupt! With Nan Qiao’s help, my company would only flourish, it would never go bankrupt!"

Liu Yanfang replied, "You blame others, yet you have no ability yourself?"

Zhou Hongqi: "I have no ability, but who has been providing for our food and clothing? If not for Nan Qiao, could you have such a good life? It’s all Zhou Jingya’s fault, how great it would have been if she hadn’t come back!"

Zhou Jingya clenched her fists, she didn’t like being compared to Nan Qiao.

Zhou Jingya shouted angrily, "Why compare me to Nan Qiao! I am me, Nan Qiao is Nan Qiao. If you liked her so much, why didn’t you stop her then, why let her go? In the end, it’s still your own incompetence!"

Liu Yanfang scoffed, "Zhou Hongqi, you blame us while lacking ability yourself. If you were capable, you would have raised the company through your own skills, not constantly relying on women!"

Provoked, Zhou Hongqi, filled with rage, swung his large knife at the two women.

Liu Yanfang and Zhou Jingya were scared enough, dodging everywhere.

Wherever Zhou Hongqi went, everything was left in chaos.

The sofa was slashed open with a big gash, and none of the objects on the tables were spared.

Liu Yanfang led Zhou Jingya to run outside; if they stayed any longer, Zhou Hongqi might kill them.

...

Morning, at the Bai Family.

The Bai family was gathered around the dining table for a meal when Bai Jingyan returned.

Bai Jingyan had a smile on his face, "Mom, Dad, I’m back."

Chen Xinwan and Bai Zhenyang completely ignored him, focusing solely on their meal.

Bai Jingting also remained silent, engrossed in the financial news.

Bai Yurou’s eyes lit up, and she excitedly ran over to loop her arm through Bai Jingyan’s, "Brother, Brother, it’s so good that you’re back! Brother, it’s been so long, I’ve missed you."

Bai Yurou immediately noticed the gift Bai Jingyan was holding; surely, there was something for her!

Bai Jingyan was known for his lavish gifts; they were always valuable.

With a smile, Bai Jingyan looked down at Bai Yurou, showing a brother’s affection, "Yurou, long time no see. Why aren’t you at work yet? Everyone went quite late today."

Bai Jingyan was unaware that he had said the wrong thing.

Bai Yurou, stung by Bai Jingyan’s words, was not in a good mood at all.

At that moment, Liu Feng came out with some milk, adding fuel to the fire.

"The young master is back, young master, the fourth miss has been fired from the hospital; she doesn’t need to go to work anymore."

Bai Jingyan: ??

Bai Yurou: !!

A servant dares to discuss her business!

Just as Bai Yurou was about to speak, Liu Feng awkwardly apologized as if she had done something wrong, "Fourth Miss, I’m sorry. I tend to speak bluntly; please don’t hold it against me."

With Liu Feng saying that, Bai Yurou still dwelling on it made her seem in the wrong.

Liu Feng put down the milk and left, as if she had never been there.

Bai Jingyan looked at his family and then at the flustered Bai Yurou.

So... Bai Jingyan placed the gift on the table, trying to please.

"Dear sister, I am your brother, Bai Jingyan. This is a gift for you. Since Huai Xi Clothing Company cannot produce clothes in the short term, I spoke to them. Just one call from my sister, and they will custom make whatever clothes you like. I have gotten you ten pieces of clothing, and I also purchased a set of jewelry at an auction. Yesterday, I went to the gold shop and bought you a crown made of pure gold along with some rings and bracelets; they are all here, I hope you like them."

Bai Jingyan opened the gift bag, revealing the pure gold jewelry shining brightly.

Others buy hardware, did Bai Jingyan buy five pounds?

This set of gold jewelry cost over a million.

Finally, Chen Xinwan and Bai Zhenyang’s gaze fell on Bai Jingyan.

Bai Jingyan thought they would praise him, but instead, he heard Bai Zhenyang’s displeased tone, "Bai Jingyan, you’re really stingy! Just buying these little things? You still have the face to smile?"

Chen Xinwan, visibly displeased, said, "Bai Jingyan, your dad is right. You only bought these few things, so stingy. No wonder you can’t find a partner."

Bai Jingyan: "..."

His heart was bleeding.

These gifts were considered few?

Bai Jingyan explained, "I also transferred a red envelope to my sister."

Nan Qiao spoke up, "Brother transferred me money and gave me so many valuable gifts, brother is really thoughtful."

Sitting next to Nan Qiao, Chen Xinwan said, "Qiaoqiao, you don’t have to speak for him. Him sending you a red envelope is as it should be. He’s your brother, how much money you’ve missed out on these years, he may not know, but I am very aware."

Bai Zhenyang continued, "These years, we’ve given a lot of red envelopes to Yurou. Yurou must have at least a hundred million by now, right?"

Concluding, Bai Zhenyang looked towards Bai Yurou, "Yurou, I’m right, aren’t I?"

Bai Yurou: "..."

Why bring me into it when criticizing Bai Jingyan?
