Chapter 230: Chapter 230: Indebted Gratitude

Housekeeper Jiang’s old face never stopped smiling. After roughly glancing around at everyone in the room, he slowly said,

"Everyone, please relax, all these arrangements were made by Mrs. Jiang."

Mrs. Jiang?

Normally, even if people saw each other, at most they would just greet each other, right?

How did it come to this?

Then, Housekeeper Jiang took out a document from the briefcase he had been carrying,

"Miss Lu Li, this is a wedding gift Madame has prepared for you."

"Ah?"

Lu Li could hardly believe her ears.

"For... me?" Her words were stammering.

Housekeeper Jiang nodded his head, and the document had already been handed over.

Lu Li quickly reached out to take it, and when she looked at it, her hand suddenly started shaking violently:

"Holy shit!"

This startled everyone around her:

"Xiao Li, what’s going on?"

Lu Li’s mouth was slightly open, and it was evident, her lips were quivering.

She tried to explain but couldn’t help swallowing hard.

In the end, it was Lu Yan who came up from behind and directly snatched the document from Lu Li’s hands.

"Brother?"

Lu Yan did not respond; he just started reading it.

For a while, no one spoke; only the sound of the pages being turned could be heard.

After flipping through several A4 pages to the last one, Lu Yan finally spoke:

"How was your partnership with rt company going?"

Hmm?

Lu Li snapped back to reality and immediately became serious:

"I called it off. Their demands were too high. If I had agreed, I’d have suffered a loss, so yeah, I called it off long ago."

Lu Yan knew about the project in Lu Li’s hands.

But since they were not kids, Lu Yan naturally wouldn’t keep checking on it.

He hadn’t expected that it had already been called off.

"Take a look at this."

The document was handed back to Lu Li. This time, she was much calmer and didn’t shake.

"Holy shit! Holy shit! Holy shit!"

For a moment, that was all that was left to say.

Otherwise, she truly didn’t know how to express herself!

Was this... a godsend or what?

The wedding gift from Mrs. Jiang was worth several hundred million!

Lu Li rapidly recalled in her mind whether she had ever done anything unknowingly that might have helped Mrs. Jiang.

But thinking hard gave her a headache, and she couldn’t remember anything.

Really, there was nothing!

Lu Yan’s stern and profound gaze fixed on Lu Li, making her scalp tingle.

"Brother, can you not look at me like that?"

Lu Yan did not shift his gaze:

"I can, but first, you need to explain what exactly is going on."

Getting such a huge favor for no reason?

How could that be possible?

Lu Li felt like crying; a massive pie had just fallen from the sky and hit her on the head, and she should have been too happy to care, right?

"Maybe Mrs. Jiang just really likes me."

What other reason could there be?

Besides, this document, including the fruits that had been air-shipped from abroad, weren’t they all under the banner of Lu Li’s wedding?

Lu Jing was shrinking behind Lu’s mother, trying his best to lower his presence, and indeed, nobody noticed anything.

Except for Housekeeper Jiang’s occasionally mocking glances, making Lu Jing wish he could bury his head in the ground.

Fortunately, Housekeeper Jiang did not stay long and soon left.

Tsk tsk.

With his departure, things at the Lu family were not so quiet anymore.

First were Lu Li’s biological parents:

"Xiao Li, you girl, explain clearly, if you don’t clarify, how can we possibly accept these things?"

Accepting these things blindly, these were favors they couldn’t possibly repay!
