Madame Xu's gaze swept across Yang Suyun and saw her complacent expression. Feeling displeased, she changed the subject and continued, "I wonder when the Qi Residence will come and propose marriage."

He had said it for so long, yet the Qi family had not come to ask for a marriage!

Lee Miaoyin secretly shook her head. What kind of people were these? They really wanted to climb higher, but even that would drive them crazy.

Hearing Madame Xu's words, Li Suyun was instantly displeased. She stood up, walked to Lee Miaoyu's side, and pulled her hand towards herself. With that, she shook off Madame Xu's hold and said with a fake smile, "Madam, are you making fun of us being happy too early?"

Seeing that Lee Chengji's expression had turned colder, Madame Xu quickly said with a smile, "Sister, what are you saying? I am the happiest person to be able to marry Yu'er into the Qi Residence. How could this be?"

Li Suyun looked like she had just achieved her goals. She raised her chin and snorted at Madame Xu as she pulled Lee Miaoyu back to her seat.

In the past, he had only respected her a little because she, Li Suyun, didn't have an official brother, and her family, which didn't have money. Now that her daughter was about to fly up the tree branch and become a phoenix, how could she still give Madame Xu any face?

Although her husband doted on Madame Xu, it was only on the surface. Many times, her husband would promise in her ears that in his heart, she was the only one who was good to him, not Madame Xu. It was only because she had an elder brother who could help him along his official path.

Seeing that her husband did not have any intention to reprimand Yang Suyun for being rude, she could only return to her seat gloomily. Her husband had been very fond of her for the past few years, but she also knew that her husband was very concerned about Yang Suyun, and many of the previous businesses owned by the Mo family were kept by her. It was one thing in the past, but now that she had entered the door for four years, her husband had let it blow in his ears.

Lee Miaoyu looked straight at Lee Miaoyin and said with a fake smile, "Isn't second sister congratulating elder sister?" What? "Are you unhappy because you saw me getting married well?"

Previously, Lee Miaoyin didn't understand why someone would invite her to such an occasion. As someone who had always existed like air in the manor, there was really no need for him to attend such an occasion.

Only now did she understand that the only reason she was invited to this occasion was because she was waiting for Lee Miaoyu to humiliate her.

Lee Miaoyin stood up and revealed a perfect smile towards Lee Miaoyu. Like an orchid that had just bloomed after the rain, she spoke softly and elegantly, "Congratulations, sister. I have nothing good. This bracelet, I'll give it to sister to make up for." With that, Lee Miaoyin took off the plain looking silver bracelet and handed it to Lee Miaoyu.

Because the bracelet had been worn for a long time, the patterns on it had already been mostly worn out. When he held it on his slender jade finger, it seemed extremely shabby.

How could Lee Miaoyu accept such a cheap item? Any random item on her body was worth more than this broken bracelet. Even maidservant felt that this item was too shabby to take out.

However, what Lee Miaoyin did made Lee Chengji frown deeply. He looked at the silver bracelet and felt that it was exceptionally dazzling. She was obviously humiliating him, as his father, for being unfair to the direct daughter.

He had also glared at Madame Xu, complaining that she had gone overboard. Although he did not care about Miaoyin, she was still someone of the Lee Family, after all, and as soon as she walked out the door, she did not even have a proper piece of jewelry on her head. All she had to do was give her makeup and take out a silver bracelet that even the servants despised, wasn't it slapping them in the face as seniors?
