409: Chapter 407: Giving Gifts 409: Chapter 407: Giving Gifts He had barely pressed the doorbell for a second or two when the door opened.

It was Yang Ruoxi who came to open the door.

The moment Yang Ruoxi opened the door, her face was still full of excitement, but upon seeing Chen Yang, her little face instantly fell into a look of grievance.

Sob sob sob…

“Chen Yang…”

Crying, Yang Ruoxi stretched out both of her arms and hugged Chen Yang, and he hurriedly opened his arms to welcome her.

Then, the two of them embraced each other.

The sound of Yang Ruoxi sobbing loudly made Chen Yang’s heart ache.

“Sob sob sob…

Chen Yang, I’ve missed you so much.

I couldn’t go out, I couldn’t play with my phone, and I was locked up at home all the time.

It’s been so boring, so miserable.”

While crying, Yang Ruoxi also poured out her grievances to Chen Yang.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yang quickly offered comfort, “Yeah yeah, I’ve missed you too.

Don’t cry, Ruoxi, everyone is watching.

After today, you’ll be free.”

A second before, Yang Ruoxi was crying bitterly, but upon hearing that everyone was watching, her crying suddenly stopped.

When she looked back, sure enough, all eyes in the room, sitting on the couch, were fixed on her and Chen Yang.

Yang Ruoxi’s face instantly felt hot and turned red.

“Ahem.”

At this moment, Li Han at the side coughed twice, breaking the awkwardness.

“Ruoxi, let’s go inside first, and talk after we go in.”

Li Han said with a smile to Ruoxi.

Just now, Yang Ruoxi’s attention had been entirely on Chen Yang, and she only remembered Li Han when she heard her voice.

“Sister!

I’ve missed you too.”

Excitedly, Yang Ruoxi hugged Li Han and then the three of them walked into the house together.

Upon entering the house, Chen Yang immediately looked over at the couch in the living room.

On the couch in the living room sat five men.

Three of them were Li Han’s father, Yang Ruoxi’s father, and Old Master Li.

The other two were young men about Chen Yang’s age, whom he did not recognize.

However, from the moment Chen Yang walked into the house, the gazes of these two young men had been unfriendly toward him.

Chen Yang noticed this.

While Chen Yang was guessing who these two were and why they were here, Li Han at the side suddenly let out a small exclamation in surprise.

“Sss!

How come he’s here!”

Hearing the unexpected tone in Li Han’s voice, Chen Yang couldn’t help but ask curiously in a low voice, “Who is this?”

“That’s the son of the rich man that uncle was forcing Ruoxi to marry!

I’ve seen the photos!”

Li Han replied in a whisper.

Upon learning the man’s identity, Chen Yang instantly understood why the man had been looking at him with displeasure the moment he walked in.

So it was a love rival.

The corner of Chen Yang’s mouth lifted slightly as he approached the couch.

“Old Master Li, Uncle Li, Uncle Yang.”

Chen Yang approached and greeted them very politely.

“Mm-hmm.”

Yang Tiancheng, seeing Chen Yang arrive, just nodded slightly, his demeanor neither cold nor warm.

However, Li Han’s father and Old Master Li were much more enthusiastic.

“You’re here?

Come, sit down.

Your aunt and the others are in the kitchen preparing food, and we’ll be eating soon,” Li Han’s father said with a smile.

“Yes, Divine Doctor, it’s been a long time since you’ve visited, and the old master here has been wanting to consult with you about some health knowledge,” Old Master Li said warmly.

“Sure, Uncle Li,” Chen Yang said with a smile, nodding his head.

Then he turned to Old Master Li, “Old Master, you want knowledge about maintaining health?

After dinner, I’ll talk to you about this topic.”

“Alright, alright, alright!

We must have a good chat later.”

Old Master Li had a very good impression of Chen Yang, after all, Chen Yang had treated his illness before.

After briefly greeting everyone, Chen Yang prepared to take a seat.

But at that moment, Yang Ruoxi suddenly noticed the antique wooden box that Chen Yang casually placed on the table.

So she immediately asked out of curiosity, “Hey, Chen Yang, what’s this?”

With that one question from Yang Ruoxi, everyone’s gaze shifted towards it.

“Oh, this is a little gift I prepared for the Old Master.”

Chen Yang said quite nonchalantly.

“A gift?

What’s inside?” Yang Ruoxi continued to ask with curiosity, even walking over, wanting to open it to have a look.

It wasn’t just Yang Ruoxi who was curious; the Old Master, Yang Tiancheng, and Father Li were curious as well.

Before Yang Ruoxi could open it, however, an irritating voice suddenly erupted.

“Hmph, what good can come from a shabby wooden box given by a poor country bumpkin?”

“Coming over for a meal and bringing such rubbish, you really have some nerve.”

Following the voice, it came from a man sitting at one end of the sofa, his face full of disdain.

As soon as those harsh words were spoken, everyone frowned.

Yang Ruoxi was especially infuriated on the spot.

“Zhou Qianzheng!

What are you talking about?”

Just a moment ago, the man called Zhou Qianzheng displayed complete disdain, but upon looking at Yang Ruoxi, his face softened immediately.

“Ruoxi, what I’m saying is the truth.

Who brings junk as a gift when they go to someone else’s home to eat?”

Zhou Qianzheng’s expression became scornful again as he looked at Chen Yang, “Only those without upbringing from the backwoods can come up with such things to give.”

Zhou Qianzheng and Chen Yang, in a sense, were rivals in love.

Their confrontation had turned the atmosphere tense; everyone present was caught off guard and had not anticipated this.

Including Chen Yang.

Nonetheless, Chen Yang was merely momentarily startled before a playful smile appeared on his face.

“You…”

At this point, Yang Ruoxi, clearly angered, wanted to defend Chen Yang, but Chen Yang stopped her.

Chen Yang took a step forward, confronting Zhou Qianzheng.

“You keep saying that an uncultured person from the backwoods gives gifts, so I’m quite curious, what does a wealthy person like you bring when you go to someone’s home for dinner?” Chen Yang asked with a smile.

“Hmph.”

Zhou Qianzheng, his face full of contempt, pointed to a corner of Li Han’s home and said, “Look over there; all those are the gifts I brought for Old Master Li.

Knowing that the Old Master’s health isn’t good, I brought all kinds of top-quality nourishments.”

After speaking, Zhou Qianzheng arrogantly pointed at Chen Yang’s wooden box and said, “You see your broken wooden box, is it comparable at all?”

Chen Yang followed Zhou Qianzheng’s direction and looked over.

Indeed, the corner was filled with various types of supplements, bird’s nest, deer antler, ginseng…

a series of costly supplements available on the market.

However, those things did not catch Chen Yang’s eye.

“And here I thought you brought something good, turns out it’s just a pile of trash,” Chen Yang said with a cold laugh.

“What!!”

Zhou Qianzheng instantly flew into a rage, almost slamming the table and standing up.

“What did you say?”

Zhou Qianzheng glared at Chen Yang, appearing extremely angry.

Chen Yang’s words made Zhou Qianzheng fly into a rage on the spot, which took everyone by surprise.

Yang Tiancheng, who was closest to Zhou Qianzheng, frowned, thinking that Zhou Qianzheng was behaving inappropriately.

At the same time, he felt Chen Yang was being a bit too boastful.

Although the things Zhou Qianzheng brought might not be anything special,

they were at least of considerable value, in contrast with Chen Yang’s gift, which didn’t seem comparable at all.

Even so, he did not make his position known but chose to quietly observe the subsequent developments.

Both Father Li and Old Master Li knew that Yang Tiancheng’s silence meant something, so they too did not speak up, sitting quietly on the sofa, watching both parties.
