Chapter 1731: Reaping What You Sow

Lin Shuyun was trembling all over, filled with anger and humiliation, as if there was a ball of energy rampaging inside her chest, ready to explode at the slightest provocation.

But she couldn’t make a scene, not because she was afraid, but because she didn’t want to embarrass herself further.

The little bitch actually had a backup plan!

She was unresponsive for a long while. Ye Congjie took out her phone. “I’ll pay. Every expense made by the Ye family has to be clear and clean. Nan Jiaojiao, tell me the amount, and your aunt will give it to you.”

Nan Jiaojiao: “Eight hundred thousand.”

“Eight hundred thousand…” Ye Congjie looked down, operating on her phone, and sneered, “Just for this small amount of money, a whole face is lost.”

Nan Jiaojiao received the transfer but didn’t click on it. “It’s too much.”

“It’s not too much. That extra two hundred thousand is compensation from your aunt. No child of the Ye family should suffer grievances. It doesn’t matter if others accept you or not, I acknowledge you as a person, and I recognize your ability. I like your designs, which far exceed this price.”

Nan Jiaojiao held her phone without moving.

Ye Linlin directly snatched it to help her receive it, “Take it. It’s from my mom. Don’t let it go to waste; she has a lot of money.”

She handed the phone back, and Nan Jiaojiao took it and put it into her bag, saying, “Thank you.”

Ye Congjie nodded.

“Then I’ll be going first. Sorry for disturbing you all.”

“Not staying for a meal?” Ye Congjie asked.

Nan Jiaojiao never looked at Lin Shuyun’s expression. She was here to collect money, not to cause embarrassment. If it weren’t for Lin Shuyun insisting on so much drama, making her lose face when the truth was revealed, she wouldn’t have become a laughingstock. But that wasn’t Nan Jiaojiao’s intention. If she stayed for a meal, Lin Shuyun would probably want to tear her apart.

“No, I still have work. I’ve already given the wedding gift, I wish…”

She hesitated, as if the words were hot, “I wish my parents a happy porcelain wedding anniversary.”

The crowd…

What kind of blessing is that?

How could parents be so estranged from their own daughter on their porcelain wedding anniversary, and still have the daughter give a gift?

Sigh, suddenly it’s hard to tell who is more at fault.

Su Rong and Chen Nian both wanted to stop Nan Jiaojiao, but Nan Jiaojiao didn’t leave any gap in her words to be wedged in; she was determined to leave, and no one could stop her.

When her figure disappeared at the door, Lin Shuyun’s whole body went limp and suddenly collapsed on a chair. Her friend was distracted and failed to support her in time, causing Lin Shuyun’s elbow to hit the armrest of the pear blossom chair, injuring it and also breaking the bracelet on her wrist.

After the pain, she froze in shock and then furiously tore off all the jewelry on her body, throwing it on the ground. She was so repressed that she clenched her fists and screamed sharply.

Ye Linlin covered her ears too late, her head buzzing, and she said disdainfully, “You brought it on yourself!”

Ye Congjie glanced at her, turned around to leave, her high heel stepping on a bloodied earring. She deliberately crushed it before leaving without looking back.

…

Nan Jiaojiao walked away, avoiding the banquet hall. She stood in front of the elevator. The door opened, and someone inside was about to come out. She lowered her head to play with her phone, stepping aside.

Unexpectedly, one of the people who came out stood in front of her.

Just at this moment, the light fell on this person’s head, casting a shadow over Nan Jiaojiao’s phone.

She couldn’t see the top line clearly and moved aside again.

The person moved along with her.

Nan Jiaojiao impatiently looked up and met a pair of lightly smiling eyes. Her expression relaxed, “Brother.”

“I thought it would take you a while to notice me. What were you playing that’s so absorbing, didn’t even react when someone blocked your way.”
