BXBX NOVEL Chapter 235 - Strength & Sensibility
To be honest, she didn’t have to even be here at all for her plan to work. But she needed a front row for this show. Otherwise, it’ll not be worth it at all!
As for Ye Jie, he was more interested in holding his wife’s hand then the wedding before him. He could only think, ’My baby’s hand is so soft. Why is it so soft today? Gosh! She’s looking gorgeous. How I wish this ends faster.’ Now, this one is called ’The whipped husband!’
Xu Mey gave him a quizzical look seeing him sigh to himself and he shook his head making her feel at ease.
The wedding ceremony felt longer to both Xu Mey and Ye Jie as they both got bored of idling around like this with their hands so empty. When they could have been doing something very productive at the moment with both their hands and mouths!
What?
What are you thinking?
Don’t be such a shameless person!
They were thinking about being productive as in closing a business deal or writing a new business proposal. Nothing of the other sort!
Anyways, as the bride and groom finished the vow and ring exchange. People went up to congratulate them.
When most of the people had presented their gifts, Xu Mey also stood up and looked at Ye Jie, "Ah-Jie, let’s go! We have to give our big gift to her."
Ye Jie didn’t comment at all. He silently and obediently followed her. He never had the thought of coming in her way of doing things. He was just happy with the fact that he got to stood beside and hold her hand to support her in any way she wants him to. That was all that actually mattered to him.
"Congratulations, little sister!" Xu Mey smiled brightly as she walked up on the stage.
Xu Liqing’s face turned ugly at her sight. Now that Xu Mey noticed, Lu Ge was quite pitiful since he barely could even sit on the couch and his ashen face was covered with makeup but his blank eyes gave away the fact he was in misery.
But did Xu Mey really feel pity for him?
The answer was; definitely not!
If anything, she was actually quite happy to see him in this state. Seeing this bastard, she had the urge to smack him again. But she held herself back because of the hand that was holding hers, secretly providing her with strength and sensibility as well.
Xu Mey extended an envelope to Xu Liqing with a smile. "This is a gift from me and Ah-Jie."
With cold daggers shooting from her eyes, Xu Liqing took the envelope from her hand but it was snatched by Mother Lu. Oh, oh! It was mother-in-law Lu now.
Mother-in-law Lu opened the envelope and her eyes went round. "Oh my! You’re actually gifting a mansion in Rose Garden’s to Xu Liqing?" Her voice was heard by plenty of people as the whispering started. Even Xu Liqing was shocked to hear that much less anyone else.
’How can she be this generous?’ Xu Liqing thought to herself.
"Aiyo, that elder daughter of the Xu family is completely unlike what people said about her. She’s such a bright and beautiful young lady."
"Not just bright and beautiful. She’s also successful. Also, she has a heart of gold."
"Haiz! That’s true! Her heart must be of gold otherwise how can she give away a mansion in Rose Gardens? Getting a house there is not even a matter of money. It’s a matter of power!"
There were different kinds of whisperings around but Xu Mey didn’t focus on them as she said, "Aiyo, Mother Lu! This house is nothing before my precious sister. If we can give our precious girl to your son then we can definitely spoil her a little more. After all, who knows whether your family would be able to pamper our princess or not." Xu Mey’s tone was on point and so was her words since they made Mother-in-law Lu look down in shame.
After all, who didn’t know that there was no match between the Xu family and the Lu family. It was a pure joke!
Xu Mey leaned a bit to hug Xu Liqing and whispered gently stroking her hair, "Dear little sister, this was my first gift. The second one is about to start. Oh, I almost forgot! That one will be your personal nightmare!" Xu Mey’s smile made Xu Liqing’s heart quiver in fear. She couldn’t help but be afraid of her unequivocal threat.
Soon, the hall was engulfed in chattering as if bees were buzzing in. Everyone was staring at their mobile phones intently and making the person beside them see the content as well. This sudden change was not unnoticed by anyone on the stage.
People first stared at the mobile phone and then their pitiful eyes looked at Xu Liqing. And looking at Lu Ge, all the people could only look away in contempt.
Xu Liqing frowned and looked up at Xu Mey who mouthed in reply, ’Congratulation!’ and smiled with her words making Xu Liqing’s bad premonition to come true. Xu Mey pointed inconspicuously at the huge wall screen at the side of the stage and Xu Liqing followed her movements.
The huge screen suddenly lit up and Xu Mey turned Ye Jie’s face away with herself saying, "Ah-Jie should not see such filthy stuff." Ye Jie gave her a skeptical look but did as she says. As expected of him!
On the huge screen, the video played with a man’s loud moans and other indescribable sounds.
"Ah-Jie, cover your ears as well." Xu Mey said smiling awkwardly.
"I think you should!" Ye Jie spoke sternly as he covered her ears with his hands. As a man himself, he could guess the content of the video. Now, that was different that he could only hear the sound of men’s moans and not a girl’s. His heart shook a bit at this realization as he stared straight at Xu Mey in shock.
Xu Mey again showed her pearly white teeth in an awkward smile. His face had a look that was like, ’Are you fu*king kidding me?’ And Xu Mey’s face had the look that seemed to reply with, ’I didn’t think it’d be this weird.’ Ye Jie could only stare at her with no words at all.
