Ning Yaohua's gift was just a waste of money, but Ning Xueluo's gift showed that she had really put a lot of thought into it.
The child knew that he loved jade and was a Buddhist, so he specially chose a jade Buddhist bracelet for him.
When Ning Zhiyuan looked at the bracelet carefully, Ning Xueluo stood quietly in front of him.
The look that faintly revealed anxiety and uneasiness made the old man feel softened.
He had loved Ning Xueluo since she was a child. Even after it was discovered that she was not a member of the Ning family, he never treated her badly and still loved her like his own granddaughter. He just couldn't stand his eldest son and daughter-in-law's attitude towards Ning Xi.
Ning Zhiyuan sighed deeply, and his tone softened a lot, "Good boy, you are thoughtful. Grandpa likes this gift very much!"
Ning Xueluo was relieved when she heard this. Her eyes even turned red because of her grandfather's praise. She said excitedly, "As long as you like it, Grandpa!"
The old man was heartbroken by the girl's sincere expression. He couldn't bear to drag her down because of his son and daughter-in-law, so he said a few words of concern and encouragement, "Career is important, but you also have to take care of your health, especially as a girl like you. Don't work too hard!"
Ning Xueluo nodded heavily, looking touched, "I understand, Grandpa!"
Seeing that their father's expression had completely relaxed, Zhuang Lingyu and Ning Yaohua looked at each other, and their expressions were full of pride and pride when they saw Ning Xueluo.
The relatives and guests nearby also flattered him in order to curry favor with him...
"Oh, this string of jade Buddha beads is really good. It must be worth at least two or three million, right?"
"That's nothing. Xue Luo's clothing brand Histor has made at least tens of millions in net profit this quarter alone. What's more, she's a superstar!"
"You are so blessed, old man. Your children and grandchildren are so ambitious and filial!"
…
In the corner, Ning Xi, who was chatting with Ning Tianxin, frowned slightly when she saw the gift Ning Xueluo gave to her grandfather.
What a coincidence
The gift Ning Xueluo chose was the same as hers, also a jade Buddha bead bracelet
Just as he was feeling suspicious, he suddenly met Ning Xueluo's eyes that were secretly looking at him.
Ning Xueluo's eyes deliberately fell on the gift she placed on the table. That look... It was obvious that she had known what she gave to grandfather, so she deliberately chose the same one!
Obviously, the necklace Ning Xueluo bought was at least ten times more expensive than hers.
This is to embarrass her in front of everyone...
Sure enough, Ning Xueluo secretly revealed a strange smile, then looked at the old man obediently and said, "Grandpa, I heard that my sister also prepared a gift for you!"
Ning Xueluo had an innocent expression when she said this, as if she said it just to make her grandfather happy.
Now that Ning Xi's identity was not public, and she was an adopted daughter, even if she made a fool of herself, it would have nothing to do with Ning Yaohua and Zhuang Lingyu. Not only that, it would also make Grandpa dislike her, which was simply the best of both worlds.
As expected, the old man didn't notice Ning Xueluo's true intentions at all. He looked at Ning Xi beside him with a happy face, "Is that so, Xiao Xi?"
Ning Tianxin looked at Ning Xueluo, then at Ning Xi, and keenly sensed that something was wrong, "Xiao Xi, wait..."
Although she didn't know what Ning Xueluo was trying to do, she knew very well that it was impossible for Ning Xueluo to deliberately bring Ning Xi and Grandpa together, and it was even more impossible for her to suddenly ask Ning Xi to have the opportunity to show up in such an occasion.
