Sweetheart V5: The Boss Is Too Kind By Hua Er Bao - Chapter 75
One of the middle-aged men: “Miss Jing! Come in and sit! Lu hasn’t seen his mother for a long time, let them talk more!”
Someone brought the gift Jing Yi had intended to politely give Madame Lu, since the bag was waterproof the dress inside was safe and sound.
She looked at the bag and sighed before gracefully walking toward a table and placing the gift along with others.
Jing Yi saw Madame Lu delightfully showing off her inferior dress to Lu Ming as she asked, “Ming-er! Do you see this dress? It’s Li Yi’s personal choice for me! This child has such a good heart! This dress is so beautiful, I love it!”
As she spoke Madam Lu glanced at Jing Yi with an arrogant smile.
Jing Yi couldn’t understand the meaning and interjected,
“A second-class dress like that is worth showing off?”
“…” Madam Lu felt like vomiting blood, but for her son’s sake, she endured.
Pretending no to hear that, Madam Lu looked for another topic,
“Where is Li Wei? This child was around earlier…” she searched the crowd and saw Li Wei standing next to the mahjong table and watching her father play mahjong with the marshal,
“Li Wei!” the first lady called her, “Lu Ming is here, why don’t you join us?” The way she called her was as if Li Wei was her own daughter in law.
Jing Yi followed the line of sight and realized that she was that strange woman she met in police station. She recalled this Li Wei was rude to her and so was mother-in-law for unknown reasons, but how could everyone here hate her?
Every now and then there were hostile glances thrown at her followed by whispers and snickers clearly directed toward her.
This was the first time she came here, and yet people are already rude to her. It was better to stay away from trouble here.
She moved around to look at the porcelain vases and other ornaments.
Li Wei came over and greeted Madam Lu and Lu Ming, Madam Lu immediately gave up her seat and let Li Wei sat there.
Lu Ming knew what was going inside his mother’s mind, his marriage with Jing Yi was already meaningless in his mother’s eyes.
As soon as Li Wei sat beside him, Lu Ming immediately stood up and walked toward the coffee table where their gift was lying. He grabbed the bag and returned to her mother.
With one hand he pulled the embroidered dress out and spread it in front of Madam Lu.
There was no need to say anything, the moment Madam Lu saw the beautiful dress her eyes blinked unconsciously and the stunning look of the dress didn’t let her move her eyes. Her mouth was slightly agape, it was hard to hide the bright smile that came over her face. It was difficult to control her obvious delight as she looked at the marvelous embroidery.
She was addicted to embroidered dresses and never before in her life has she ever seen something as beautiful as this.
