The vicious aunt and the villain child became popular after appearing on the variety show

After receiving Ji Jingshen's rejection, Ji Yanran's eyes flashed with ruthlessness, but she hid it for a moment, "Jingshen, I will definitely give you the money."

Even now, Ji Yanran still thinks it’s about money.

Ji Jingshen's face remained calm when he heard Ji Yanran's words. "She doesn't like you for one thing, and Lu Xingzhou's attitude towards you is another. If you plan to use the money on yourself, I won't refuse. If you plan to use the money on Xiaoyu, I have no objection. But you can't use it as a gift for the old lady."

This was a rare occasion for him to talk so much to Ji Yanran.

In fact, this is not only his idea, but also his father's idea.

At the wedding of Ji Yanran and Lu Xingzhou, all members of the Ji family and the Lu family were present, except the old lady, who declined to come due to illness. From then on, the Ji family knew that the old lady disliked Ji Yanran very much. If it were not for the little bit of face she had left, Ji Jingshen would not have come to the old lady's 80th birthday.

Now that the birthday gift worth several million that Ji Yanran originally prepared was replaced with one worth tens of millions, Ji Jingshen naturally would not help.

He would not pay for the gift himself, and his father had no intention of doing so, so Ji Yanran had to pay for it herself.

Not only could Ji Yanran not come up with the money now, she also couldn't find a gift of corresponding value. What's more, Shen Shiyue had no intention of competing with her. From Ji Jingshen's point of view, there was no need for Ji Yanran to do this.

But Ji Yanran didn't think so.

After making sure that Ji Jingshen would not help her, Ji Yanran left immediately and walked in another direction.

The person she targeted again was Lu Yin, who was still cracking melon seeds.

When Lu Yin saw Ji Yanran walking towards her, she was also stunned.

What does Ji Yanran want to see me about?

Lu Yin didn’t know, but it didn’t matter, she would know soon.

"Xiaoyin, sister-in-law wants to see you for something, can you come out with me for a moment?"

These words were definitely spoken to Lu Yin. In order to avoid hearing the words wrongly, Lu Yin checked with Lu Zeyu standing beside her, "Xiao Yu, is your mother talking to your aunt?"

Lu Zeyu, who was eating melon seeds enthusiastically, looked at Lu Yin with a look of "Are you deaf?" after hearing her words. After a moment, he said, "Yes."

After hearing Lu Zeyu's words, Lu Yin finally confirmed that Ji Yanran was looking for her, "What's the matter?"

She became reserved at this time, looking at Ji Yanran with an artificial tone.

I just had an argument with her not long ago, why am I coming to see her now?

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.

Ji Yanran came to ask her for something.

"Can we go outside and talk?" Ji Yanran stared at her, with a hint of request in her tone.

But even so, Lu Yin did not agree, "Xiaoyu is the only one here, it's okay, sister-in-law can just tell me."

Because Ji Yanran took the initiative to build a closer relationship, Lu Yin followed suit and spoke in the same way.

After hearing Lu Yin's words, Ji Yanran's face changed. After a long while, she finally accepted Lu Yin's suggestion. "What gift are you going to give grandma? If it's a valuable item, can I exchange it with you? I'll make up for the difference."

"A calligraphy and painting worth hundreds of thousands, do you want it, sister-in-law?"

Lu Yin looked at her, raising his brows slightly.

As soon as the words fell, even Lu Zeyu laughed when he heard it.

"Don't laugh." Lu Yin patted Lu Zeyu's head, signaling him to be serious.

After hearing Lu Yin's words, Ji Yanran's expression changed again and again, until she recalled what Lu Xingzhou had said just now at home, "Didn't Xingzhou say that you picked the most expensive thing in the study?"

Since it is called the most expensive by Lu Xingzhou, its value must be not low.

It might even be more expensive than Shen Shiyue's.

This is what Ji Yanran thought, and in fact it was indeed the case.

The calligraphy and painting that Lu Yin selected at the beginning was worth tens of millions. It was a calligraphy and painting by a deceased calligrapher collected by Lu Xingzhou.

Many things are often not worth much when a person is alive, but when that person dies, their value may increase unexpectedly.

Just like the painting, when Lu Xingzhou collected it, its value was only a few million, but now someone is willing to spend 20 million to buy it. However, Lu Xingzhou is not a money-grubbing person, and he is not interested in this little money, so he refused them all.

Lu Yin didn't know how much the painting was worth, she only knew that Lu Xingzhou always said that expensive things would never be cheap.

"That's too expensive. It's not suitable for grandma. I changed it."

Lu Yin's tone was very casual, as if she was talking about something insignificant.

It’s too expensive, so you changed it?

This was a plot that Ji Yanran had never thought of. Before Ji Yanran could continue speaking, Lu Xingzhou, who was originally with Shen Shiyue, suddenly walked towards her.

Shen Shiyue and Jiang Yunting also came with him.

Jiang Yunting came here with Shen Shiyue, while Shen Shiyue came here with Lu Xingzhou.

"What are you doing here?"

Lu Xingzhou opened his mouth with this question, which confused Lu Yin and Ji Yanran.

Who are you talking to?

"you."

Perhaps seeing the confusion on Lu Yin's face, Lu Xingzhou stared at Lu Yin.

Now Lu Yin knew.

She gave Ji Yanran a look that said "take care of yourself" and pulled Lu Zeyu to the other side.

It wasn't that she wanted to leave, but that was probably what Lu Xingzhou meant.

It had been a long time since they gave each other gifts, and she was still here eating melon seeds and watching the show. Lu Xingzhou probably couldn't stand it anymore.

Lu Yin gave the gift very casually. Facing the old lady's unfriendly gaze, Lu Yin handed over the calligraphy and paintings that Lu Xingzhou had placed in the study, which were covered with dust. She only said "Happy Birthday" and left.

And in the end, Ji Yanran didn't know whether she was enlightened or not, but she finally gave the old lady the jade bracelet she had prepared originally. It was a very conventional gift. The old lady was neither very happy nor very disappointed.

Lu Yin also noticed that when Ji Yanran left the old lady, she glanced at Shen Shiyue. There were too many emotions in that look, the most obvious of which was resentment.

In her imagination, she would be the focus of this banquet, but Shen Shiyue snatched away her attention, and not only that, she also snatched away Lu Xingzhou's attention.

In other words, Ji Yanran and Shen Shiyue have already become enemies.

It was just Ji Yanran's one-sided enmity.

The best is yet to come.

"Xiao Yu, if we don't go back, Auntie will be fined. Let's go."

She said something like she was coaxing a kid, then pulled Lu Zeyu out.

It was now late at night, and Lu Yin's driving skills needed to be improved. Looking at the dark night outside, Lu Yin thought for a short while. Just when she was about to grit her teeth and drive back by herself, her savior appeared.

This savior is Ji Jingshen.

"Xiao Yu, it's time to use your shameless skills. Fifty meters ahead is your uncle's car. Go up and ask him if he can take us in. After all, you know how good your aunt is at driving."
