Cheng Ling smiled at Elder Jin. Although the smile was polite, it was very cold.

Old Master Cheng saw it and thought that Cheng Ling represented the Cheng family, so he scolded, “Cheng Ling, why aren’t you polite when you see your elders?”

Cheng Ling glanced at Old Master Cheng and was about to speak, but Elder Jin quickly said, “It’s okay, she’s just a child. Moreover, it’s my fault.”

Everyone present was shocked again. Elder Jin was in the wrong?

Wasn’t this the first time the two of them met?

Why did Elder Jin start to reflect on himself?

Besides, when did Elder Jin ever admit his mistake since he was so proud?

Everyone present was dumbfounded. Ding Shun, on the other hand, looked like he was watching the show.

He patted the chair beside him. “Old Jin, sit down and chat. The night is long.”

Elder Jin turned around and glared at Ding Shun as if criticizing him for not speaking up for him.

Ding Shun shrugged. “Cheng Ling, this girl, you have to use your sincerity to make her feel moved. It doesn’t make sense with the help from others.”

Elder Jin sighed.

After Cheng Ling hung up the phone last time, he also reflected on himself. It was indeed not right for him to have such thoughts. That was why he had come to apologize!

“Cheng Ling, what I said last time was due to my wrong attitude. That was because I had not met you before. Ever since I took the medicine you prescribed, my view of Chinese medicine has completely changed. It’s all because of you. Look…”

“Grandpa Jin, thank you for saying this. But I still don’t feel any change in you from what you’ve said.”

Although Old Master Cheng didn’t know what the two were talking about, he understood that Cheng Ling was rejecting Elder Jin.

His hands were trembling with anger.

What was this child doing?!

Elder Jin had come with great difficulty, but she was not giving Elder Jin a chance.

He thought that Jin Wang would fly into a rage, but he didn’t expect Jin Wang to just sigh.

“Haiz, it was my fault in the beginning, and now I have brought this upon myself.”

The crowd continued to be surprised. They were still waiting for Elder Jin to fly into a rage so that they could watch the show!

They didn’t expect that not only did Elder Jin fly into a rage, but after Cheng Ling rejected him, he spoke to Cheng Ling in a gentle voice. Cheng Ling also didn’t put on any airs, and she responded to Elder Jin accordingly.

These guests didn’t have any relationship with Old Master Ding and Elder Jin. Thus they could only look at the few people who had gathered together with envy.

Although Old Master Cheng didn’t say anything, he felt it was worth it to sit among them.

Finally, it was time to give gifts.

Giving gifts was a very important part. The sincerity of each family could be shown at this moment, and now many families were beginning to regret that their gifts weren’t good enough.

Who would have thought that Old Master Ding and Elder Jin would come tonight? It was really a mistake!

Old Master Cheng was happy today. As a birthday boy, he especially wore a birthday hat on his head. He looked much younger.

The first one to send gifts was Cheng Ming.

Cheng Ming’s family of three went to the black market to buy a lot of ginseng and put them in a box.

“Dad, look, we have specially bought these. You can put some small ginseng in your meals to nourish your body. The big ones can be soaked in wine or for collection.”

Cheng Ming laughed happily and felt very proud of his gift.

This ginseng cost him a lot of money.

Not to mention the big ones, even these small ones were carefully selected by him.

Old Master Cheng loved to be flattered. When he saw his son giving him so much ginseng, he beamed with joy.

He took the red velvet box and began to look at it under the light. He even looked at it from different directions.

On the surface, he was studying the color of the ginseng, but in fact, he wanted the surrounding guests to take a look as well.

Cheng Ling actually saw it too, and she just laughed it out. She didn’t laugh out loud, but Lu Qi, who was beside her, noticed it.

Lu Qi leaned over and asked, “What are you laughing at?”

He was very close to her, and Cheng Ling felt that the right side of her face was blushing. She stepped back a little unnaturally, and then said, “Didn’t the ginseng look familiar to you?”

Lu Qi was a little short-sighted. It wasn’t an important event tonight, so he didn’t wear his glasses and just squinted his eyes to see.

Seeing that he was looking at it so hard, she initiated to tell him, “These are the ginseng I gave to your bodyguards previously. Didn’t they sell them to the black market? This is the one. I didn’t expect Cheng Ming to buy them..”
