Chapter 275 - 275: Worth Of Gifts

Wang Li Lei gaze burned freezing over the woman standing before his grandparents. He wasn't pleased her presence in the party nor that she was near Xiao Yun or him and it was clear to Xiao Yun. He had make sure there will be no invitation for the woman but she had found a way to acquire the invitation from either his grandparents or any other guests. If it was the latter, he began to think of some ways to pull out the foolish people who helped the woman. A demotion would be too kind for them or perhaps he should take over their companies?

Lin Chang Lu glanced at Xiao Yun, spotting the navy velvet box on her hand she quickly called her out. "Xiao Yun, are you perhaps here to give Grandmother and grandfather a gift?" Xiao Yun planned to be low key in this matter, giving the gift without attracting any attention but she knew now this was Lin Chang Lu's wicked plan.

"Cheap, cheap." Chengye standing still not afar from the place covered his chuckle with a palm over his lips. She thought Lin Chang Lu was a smart woman but all she could do was to reuse a petty move. "This is disappointing." He glanced at Xiao Yun thinking that the woman would be agitated by Lin Chang Lu's provocation but found no trace of nervousness nor surprise flashing over her face. Leaning on the wall behind him his lips twisted in amus.e.m.e.nt.

"Yes, it isn't a great gift, grandmother and grandfather." She took a step receiving not a word from Wang Li Lei. Not that he didn't care what would happen to Xiao Yun. Everything that could harm Xiao Yun whether it was psychically or socially he would protect her and this time was no different. He didn't stop her because he trust her. He trust that the one who would lose would be none other than Lin Chang Lu. Suddenly, Wang Li Lei flashed his gaze when he felt someone eyeing on them. Looking at the wall he found no one but a moment ago he was sure he felt someone gazing at them intently.

"Happy wedding anniversary grandfather and grandmother, I wish you two an everlasting love." She passed the blue box gently toward Wang Yan Zhi. Expectant gaze of the crowds surrounded them but in front of Wang Li Lei they couldn't show their curiosity and sneak only a few peek.

"Thank you, Xiao Yun." Wang Yan Zhi called her name for the first time bringing a little surprise to Xiao Yun which she reply with a gentle smile. "You're welcome."

"Yun Jie-jie's present? What is it Grandmother? I want to see!" Wang Shi Ning who had been dwelling around Wang Yan Zhi uttered loudly. At first Wang Yan Zhi didn't want to open the present outside as she knew how pressuring it would be for Xiao Yun to showcase her birthday gift. Xiao Yun could tell the hesitation over Wang Yan Zhi's face then put a reassuring smile. "It's alright Grandmother, you can open the gift. It is nothing grand but I hope it will be a memorable one."

"Grandmother, open it!" Wang Shi Ning can't wait for her grandmother to open the gift. After knowing Xiao Yun was the CEO of Azure, she expected the gift to be an accessory from Azure and couldn't hold down her anticipation brimming over her eyes.

"Okay." Wang Yan Zhi opened the box for the light greenish blue color of the bracelet sparkled. Lin Chang Lu had seen the jade bracelet she bought and when compared to hers which worth millions of yuan Xiao Yun's present was nothing.

Taking the bracelets from the case, Wang Yan Zhi looked surprised. "This is very beautiful, thank you Xiao Yun." Wang Yongyi glanced at the bracelet giving a look of approval. Seeing the faces, Lin Chang Lu didn't care she could still hear the whispers around them saying how it wasn't as grand as hers and smiled heartily. Even if Old Madam Wang and Old master Wang praised, they done it only for the sake of not embarrassing Xiao Yun. But the crowds aren't blind, Lin Chang Lu grinned.

"Your welcome, Grandmother." She replied gently. "Grandmother if you could try look beneath the bracelet you could find a carving."

Wang Yan Zhi followed her instruction and looked down. Following Wang Yan Zhi, Wang Yongyi glanced at the carving of the bracelet for his eyes to widened. "This is, isn't This the jade carving of Elder Jiu?"

"Elder Jiu you mean your favorite crafter, dear?" Wang Yan Zhi asked for Wang Yongyi to nod as a confirmation. "Yes, I have been a great fan of Elder Liu, I will not mistake this! This worth almost twenty two million each!" Wang Yongyi uttered aloud, showing shock as he couldn't hold his excitement of the crafted he likes. likewise the crowds showed an awe expression while Lin Chang Lu had gaped her lips in shock. What did Wang Yongyi said? Twenty two million each? That's a complete different than hers!

Really? Xiao Yun inclined her head, she only thought that the bracelet was beautiful and meaningful. It was what she wanted to present toward Old Madam Wang and Old Master Wang. But she didn't expect the bracelet to be worth double than Lin Chang Lu's.

Elder Pei had just came back after a little trip that he didn't notice the commotion happening until the time he arrived to see Xiao Yun being caught up with the crowd. He went with his cane, giving a thudding sound as his cane reached the floor. Stopping beside them he took the bracelet and observe carefully. "This is certainly Elder Liu's carving. I thought he retired last year where did you met him, Xiao Yun?"

She doesn't know but seeing the possibility the old man she met in the shop must have been the Elder Liu as he was the person who carved the jade. "I'm not sure of it is him who you are talking about but I did met a kind grandpa who offered to carve the bracelet."

"Oh my then, it must have been expensive. Xiao Yun isn't this would be too much for us?" Wang Yan Zhi cupped her cheeks.

"It isn't Grandmother, it was around my spending budget." Hearing her spending budget, one thought it must have been the budget gave by Wang Li Lei but then Wang Li Lei spoke. "It is the budget she acquire from her work, grandmother."

"Oh!" Wang Shi Ning clapped her hand. "Grandma, I haven't told you before but Yun Jie-Jie is the CEO of Azure company." This gathered more attention from the crowds and Lin Chang Lu who seemed shaken by the facts kept pouring down to ruin her plan. Her face flashed from white to black, an unimpressive expression to look at.

"You are the CEO of Azure company, Xiao Yun?" Xiao Yun nodded. "Yes grandmother, I am the CEO of Azure company. I didn't want to make an announcement early because I'm still a new person in the field." Wang Yan Zhi and Wang Yongyi's opinion Of Xiao Yun quickly add up. From a spoiled young lady, their view of Xiao Yun cleared out.

"It must have been a great deal to manage a Company alone," Wang Feng Yi spoke with admiration. "You're very amazing Xiao Yun."

"Thank you for the praise second uncle. But I didn't manage my company alone, there are many subordinate who helped me." Wang Li Lei noticed the expression over his grandfather's face had changed. He wholeheartedly heard Xiao Yun's words tentatively giving a nod at some times unlike before when he only ignored Xiao Yun. Perhaps by fighting with his grandparents he did change the view of his grandparents.

On the other hand, Lin Chang Lu slowly fade to the background. Her eyes were fixed at Xiao Yun who slowly garner good impression between the family while forgetting her who stood there.

Xiao Yun noticed Lin Chang Lu begin to taking steps back and smiled, "Chang Lu." She called for everyone to have their eyes locked on Lin Chang Lu.
