1280 The Kids Have Grown Up (6)

Liu Xiyi walked over unwillingly. “Uncle Chen, Auntie Chen.” However, the etiquette that she had learned since she was young made her greet them politely.

“I have only seen Tuan Tuan’s childhood photos. In the blink of an eye, she has already become a big girl. Come, Tuan Tuan, this is your uncle’s welcome gift to you.” As he spoke, Chen Ming took out a box from his bag.

Chen Xinmeng saw that her father had taken out a very familiar jewelry box. She shouted unhappily, “Dad, I asked you for it before, but you couldn’t bear to give it to me. Now you want to give it to her as a welcome gift.” Chen Xinmeng’s voice unconsciously became sharp because of her emotions.

“Chen Xinmeng.” Chen Ming frowned in dissatisfaction at Chen Xinmeng’s actions.

“Xinmeng.” Although Guo Meijuan was also a little dissatisfied with Chen Ming’s actions, she quickly stopped her daughter from overreacting. If she really offended Chen Ming for this matter, the gains would not be worth the losses.

“Mom, Dad is already so biased. Why aren’t you speaking up for me? I’ve asked for this thing so many times, but Dad always said no. Now, Dad actually wants to give it to this woman’s daughter. How can you bear it?” Chen Xinmeng pointed at Chen Meng’er and Liu Xiyi emotionally.

Her voice was not soft. The commotion on Chen Meng’er’s side had alarmed the other people who were attending the banquet.

Yuwen Jing frowned at Chen Xinmeng’s actions. He looked displeased. “Chen Ming, this gift of yours is too much. My daughter doesn’t have the fortune to enjoy it. It’s better for you to keep it. Otherwise, who knows what your daughter will do today.”

Being humiliated in front of the person he loved the most as well as his rival in love made Chen Ming very angry. If it wasn’t for the wrong occasion, he would definitely have given the two a slap.

“If you two don’t want to be sent back, then shut up. Otherwise, pack up and leave tonight.” Chen Ming was angry. Guo Meijuan and Chen Xinmeng didn’t dare speak again.

“Tuan Tuan, this is my gift to you. Take it.” When he turned to face Liu Xiyi, Chen Ming immediately put on a gentle face.

“Thank you, Uncle, but I can’t accept it. Since Xinmeng wants it, you can give it to Xinmeng.” Liu Xiyi didn’t know what was in the jewelry box. However, no matter what was in it, she didn’t want it.

She had many good things. She really didn’t care about such a small thing.

Chen Ming knew that after his daughter made such a fuss, he wouldn’t be able to give her the present today. Chen Ming glared at Chen Xinmeng fiercely, preparing to teach her a lesson when he got home.

Chen Xinmeng saw her father’s glare and couldn’t help but shrink back. How could she forget that her father had never been a kind father?

“This is what Uncle gave you, it’s yours. Since you don’t want it now, Uncle will help you keep it first. Oh right, Yuhao, it’s no fun for you young people to be together with us old people. Take Tuan Tuan to have fun.” Chen Ming’s drunken intentions were obvious.

Yuwen Jing wanted to stop him but was stopped by Chen Meng’er. “Tuan Tuan, go and have some fun with Yuhao. Mom and dad will catch up with Uncle and Auntie,” Chen Meng’er said with a smile.

“Okay.” Although Liu Xiyi was reluctant, since her mother had already said so, she could only agree.

Seeing the three children leave, Chen Ming couldn’t help but say, “Meng’er, what do you think of the proposal from before?”

Yuwen Jing was about to reply. However, he was overtaken by Chen Meng’er. “Chen Ming, let the children decide for themselves. Let nature take its course and we can create some opportunities for them. However, in the end, whether the two children can get together or not will depend on themselves.”

Although Chen Meng’er had thought of letting her daughter and Chen Ming’s son get together, after what happened just now, Chen Meng’er suddenly realized that she had thought too simply.

Chen Ming was not a good person.

“Alright,” Chen Ming reluctantly agreed.

“The daughter of a vixen is also a little vixen.” Liu Xiyi and Chen Yuhao walked side by side in front, while Chen Xinmeng was one step behind them. Liu Xiyi could not hold back the anger in her heart. She ignored her father’s warning and cursed.

Liu Xiyi was never a pushover. She frowned and stopped in her tracks, she turned around and said, “For the sake of your father, I can pretend that I didn’t hear it this time. However, if there’s a next time, I won’t let it go just like that.”

Liu Xiyi was never a timid person. She had been taught to fight and stand up for herself.

Such a stern expression on Liu Xiyi’s face was not something a young lady like Chen Xinmeng could bear

Chen Xinmeng was obviously intimidated by Liu Xiyi.

Chen Yuhao was shocked by Liu Xiyi’s sudden powerful aura. He had only seen such an aura from his father.

“Tuan Tuan, my sister is young and silly. Don’t take it to heart.” Chen Yuhao quickly came out to smooth things over.

“I’ve said it before. There won’t be a next time. You know very well who my mother is. If my great-grandfather and the others find out, you should know what will happen to you.” Liu Xiyi did not have a good impression of this family.

Liu Xiyi’s merciless words made even Chen Yuhao feel a little awkward. However, he also knew that what Liu Xiyi said was absolutely right.

His sister didn’t know about the power of this family, but he, who had been raised as the heir, knew very well. Chen Meng’er’s family could not be offended. If he succeeded in marrying Liu Xiyi, he knew how powerful their family would be.

Therefore, he was very angry at his sister’s words.

“I know. I promise you, there won’t be a next time. There definitely won’t be a next time,” Chen Yuhao quickly said, trying to restore his image in Liu Xiyi’s heart.
