Shen Kangxiong unfolded the scroll, and an old man next to him pushed up the reading glasses on the bridge of his nose, "It is really the original work of Master Su Changfeng. This painting that has become popular all over the mountain is now priceless, and the Fu family really has their intentions." "
Mr. Shen Kangxiong showed a satisfied smile on his face, "I'm tired."
"As long as Grandpa Shen likes it, it doesn't matter if we, the younger generation, suffer." Fu Junheng was humble and polite.
Following closely behind was the Yun family.
It was only through the light of Yun Xinxin that the Yun family could come forward to offer gifts after the Fu family.
Yun Jiandong and Yu Jing presented a set of white jade chessboards, which were beautifully packaged and worth a lot at first glance.
Yun Feng and Yun Lei, as juniors, presented a set of purple clay teapots and a string of white jade beads.
For the sake of the Fu family, Shen Kangxiong reluctantly gave some face, asking someone to open the gift box, take a look at it, and put on a polite smile.
At this moment, a delicate figure entered the hall.
The girl was wearing light-colored jeans, a khaki shirt, and a light gray coat. Compared with the gorgeous dresses in the banquet hall, she looked out of place.
As soon as it appeared, it attracted the attention of many people.
"Huh? Who is this girl? Why did she come to the Shen family's birthday party dressed like this?"
Scattered discussions reached here, and Yun Jiandong turned his head to look, his brows furrowed immediately.
"Ye Nanyi? She, why is she here?" When Yun Lei saw her, he could think of his broken arm.
Everyone in the Yun family had complicated expressions on their faces, and Yu Jing looked worried, "I just said don't make a statement yet. She must be here to cause trouble and just want to embarrass our Yun family."
Yun Jiandong cleared his throat, "Anyway, she has severed ties with our Yun family. Even if something happens, it has nothing to do with us!"
The sound was neither too loud nor too quiet, just enough for the two tables of guests near Shen Kangxiong to hear it.
This is enough. If someone is lost in a while, even if they are kicked out, it has nothing to do with them.
Although the girl is not wearing a dress, her appearance and temperament are beyond comparison. Her clear black and white deer eyes show her disregard for everyone, and she has an innate unruliness that makes her look like a daughter of a well-dressed lady.
"Mr. Shen, happy birthday. This is the gift my husband asked me to bring you." Ye Nanyi handed over the brocade box in his hand.
The brocade box looks very ordinary.
"The etiquette is light but the affection is heavy, he said, you will definitely like it."
Shen Kangxiong's smile deepened. For some reason, looking at such an ordinary brocade box, he actually wanted to open it and see what was inside.
So everyone looked at it. Mr. Shen took the brocade box and opened it with curiosity.
There were a few very ordinary sapphire beads lying in the box. Two of them had cracks, which made them look shabby and disrespectful among the many gifts.
Yun Xinxin was originally a little wary because of her appearance, but now it seems that she is here to make a joke, right?
How shameful to give such a shabby gift!
Among the guests present, someone whispered, "How dare you hand out such a birthday gift?"
"What kind of identity is Mr. Shen? He actually gave you such a few ordinary prayer beads. He's not afraid of being laughed at."
Listening to the pointing fingers from the people around her, Yu Jing couldn't hold back and grabbed Ye Nanyi, "What are you doing here to cause trouble? Get out of here quickly, don't be embarrassed here."
"Ye Nanyi, there must be a limit to your nonsense!" Yun Feng also stepped forward and roared, showing no mercy at all, "Send me a few broken beads, there must be something wrong with your brain!"
Yun Jiandong immediately stopped him: "What are you two doing? What gift did Miss Ye give you? What does it have to do with our Yun family!" He looked at Yun Feng and Yu Jing with warning eyes.
The two retreated in silence.
I heard the hearty laughter of the old man coming from the main seat.
Everyone cast curious glances.
Shen Kangxiong stood up, walked to Ye Nanyi, and gently patted the girl's shoulder.
"I'm very satisfied with your gift. It's the best gift I've ever received tonight! Thank you, and thank you, sir."
Everyone was stunned, what did Mr. Shen say?
A few broken beads were actually the best gift he received tonight.
The white jade chessboard and Master Su Changfeng's paintings are not worth a few beads?
Watching Mr. Shen personally entertain such a little girl? He also brought the person to the chair seat and sat next to him.
The Yun family looked incredulous, what on earth is going on?
Yun Jiandong looked a little ugly and opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word.
What I just said has already been said. If I say anything more now, wouldn't it be a slap in my face?
Yun Xinxin was not convinced. She and Fu Junheng gave him a painting by Su Changfeng, but Mr. Shen was not so happy!
"Grandpa Shen, it's just a few beads. You..." Before Yun Xinxin could finish her words, Shen Kangxiong glanced at her with a sharp and majestic gaze.
Yun Jiandong: "My little girl is ignorant, Mr. Shen, please forgive me, but does this bead have any meaning?"
After a brief silence, Shen Kangxiong's eldest daughter Shen Wei spoke up: "This Buddhist bead was left behind by my mother. A few years ago, we accidentally fell into the water when we went to sea. We fished for a long time but only found one."
Shen Wei looked at Ye Nanyi with gratitude in her eyes, "Thank you, Miss Ye, for the gift."
"This, how is this possible... After so many years of lost things, how can we be sure that these beads were lost back then!" Yun Xinxin's words can be regarded as asking everyone's doubts.
Shen Wei picked up a cracked one, "It was broken by Shen Jiang when he was young. I remember it very clearly. Shen Jiang even blamed me for this incident, causing me to be blamed by my father."
Shen Jiang coughed twice, "Ahem...Sister, why are you talking about this! But I am really grateful to Miss Ye."
"You're welcome, as long as Mr. Shen likes this gift." Ye Nanyi called Shen Kangxiong 'Mr. Shen' from beginning to end without any intention of being close.
When Mrs. Shen, who had been watching the food preparation in the kitchen, came over, she saw Ye Nanyi at a glance, "Designer Ye, why are you here?"
Mrs. Shen looked happy. She had invited her before, but she said she had something to do and couldn't come. She didn't expect that she took time out of her busy schedule to come. It was really a favor.
She immediately pulled Ye Nanyi and introduced her to the people at this table.
"Dad, this is Designer Ye. The cheongsams worn by my eldest sister and I were made by her."
Mrs. Shen had never been so enthusiastic towards anyone else just now. Now she was holding Ye Nanyi as if she were her own daughter, completely ignoring the family who was sending the congratulatory gifts.
"Sister, this is the designer of 'Diary Girl'."
"It turns out that the cheongsam specially ordered by Mrs. Shen last month was for you. Your sister-in-law has a really good relationship." Ye Nanyi talked to people generously and gracefully. There are not many such harmonious relationships among wealthy families.
There happened to be an old man at the table, Cao Hua, a professor from the Design Department of Imperial University. He had met Ye Nanyi before during a design competition, and she admired the little girl very much at that time.
The two looked at each other, and Ye Nanyi nodded slightly towards her.
Seeing Ye Nanyi conversing with the respected dignitaries at this table and being so valued by the Shen family,
Yun Jiandong was mute and his face was ashen.
Then his behavior just now would become a joke in the eyes of outsiders...
