“Boyfriend?” he muttered to himself.
“Yes, Young Master. He’s her former boyfriend!”
“Hmph!”
How had she ended up with such a bum in the first place?
“Are you alright, Brother Jingxuan?” Gu Feirou took his hand when, all of a sudden, she caught sight of the thing in Ye Erruo’s hand.
“Creating such a din is unacceptable!” Old Master Lin reprimanded him severely.
Gnashing his teeth, Lin Jingxuan asked, “Grandpa, let me ask you something. Now that you’ve given everything the Lin Family has to Mo Jiangye, what should I do?”
Gu Feirou’s face turned sour at his words. What? This stupid old man has given everything to Mo Jiangye? Don’t tell me Ye Erruo is holding onto that…
“Do you think the Lin Family will shortchange you? Will you perhaps be less well-fed or given less money?”
This comment only made the young chap clench his hands into ball-like fists. He was incensed!
Does he think I’m only here to eat and drink? Is that all? Am I an invalid to him? How can he be so biased?
“You’ll have shares of Lin Teng too. This should be enough to take care of you for the rest of your life,” Old Master Lin Teng added.
The young man merely sneered, “I’m grateful, grandpa.”
The old man wasn’t finished with him. “Xiao Ye has been taking care of the Lins’ affairs all this time. He has more experience than you and better business acumen.”
“You’re right, Grandpa.”
The patriarch glanced at the man, who had finally calmed down, and did not say anything else.
Ye Erruo sized up the seal in her hand with a smile.
Realizing that his woman seemed to take an extraordinary fancy to the object, Mo Jiangye asked as he smoothed down the tousled hair strands next to her ear, “Do you like it?”
“Yes!” she whispered. How could she not? This was the object that her hateful former boyfriend desired the most, and it was in her hands now. She could do anything to him!
“Do you like gold?” Furrowing his brows, her man pressed on. The delight in her eyes could not escape his eyes, and this seal was made of pure gold.
“What do you mean?”
“Do you like gold a lot?”
She replied with a quizzical look on her face, “Yes.”
Well, gold is money, and who doesn’t like money?
Mo Jiangye’s face sank. He had not bought her any gifts in the past… Furthermore, she’d seemed so happy to receive those bracelets from Grandpa. The man suddenly realized that this woman hardly had any jewelry on, unlike other women who were wearing chains and bracelets. Although she had some jewelry, she hardly wore it and would only stick to a few preferred pieces.
He could not help reproaching himself at this thought!
“I see.” He reached out and caressed her head indulgently.
“Alright, you can all take your leave.” The old man seemed to have mixed feelings as he walked away, watching his beloved grandson caressing the woman’s head at the same time.
Ye Erruo cocked a brow as she sneaked a victorious look at the man she hated. If her guess turned out to be correct, then Lin Jingxuan would target her next and try to get back this seal.
Hmm… At their meeting tomorrow, he would most likely use those nude photos and video clips to blackmail her. After all, he got an imposter to take these indecent images so he can sabotage me, right?
“Let’s go.” Leading her by her hand, Mo Jiangye took her downstairs.
She returned the seal to him and put the bracelets the patriarch had given her into her bag. Then, Lin Jingxuan caught sight of the jewelry and let out a gasp. That pair of bracelets was the Lin Family’s heirloom!
His grandmother liked this pair of bracelets a lot, yet that d*mned old man had passed these to that woman as well! The old man had given everything to this slutty couple and left nothing for him!
As Ye Erruo walked down the stairs, she saw a familiar face again. It was the man who had given her the lobster! This would be the fourth time she was meeting him…
