Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“What are you laughing at? Don’t tell me you’re trying to conceal the truth?”
Xia Duoduo spoke.
“Based on what I know, your clothes were made by the foreign designer, Qiu Cha, but they are obsolete. You actually picked up Qiu Cha’s pieces that were in the trash and wore them as treasures? If you pay attention to Qiu Cha, you will know that her style has changed. You don’t even have a trademark dress and yet, you dare to insult me?”
Lan Anran teased.
Qiu Cha was a good friend of hers from abroad and she had helped her with treatment before. She knew the concept of Qiu Cha’s clothes well and that dress had been abandoned by her for many years now. She didn’t expect to see it here.
“What did you say? How could this dress be obsolete?”
Xia Duoduo was nervous.
She had gotten someone to tailor this dress for her at a high price. How could it have been picked up from the trash?
“Duoduo, don’t listen to her nonsense, she doesn’t know anything. She just said that to upset you, don’t be scared!”
The girl beside her comforted her.
At this moment, the number of onlookers increased and they crowded around.
“Nonsense! Country bumpkin, do you think Duoduo is easy to bully? Get out if you know what’s best for you. This isn’t a place where a country bumpkin like you should be.”
The woman pushed Lan Anran.
At this moment, Old Mrs. Mo walked out from the crowd and spoke harshly.
“Who dares to cause trouble at my banquet? Are they not respecting me anymore?”
Old Mrs. Mo’s makeup was meticulous and she wore branded clothes. She walked out shakily with a walking stick.
“Grandma, hurry and teach that girl a lesson. She actually dared to make fun of me.”
Relying on the business connections between the Xia Corporation and the Mo Family Group, and because Xia Duoduo had spoken with Old Mrs. Mo before, she directly cuddled up against Old Mrs. Mo.
Old Mrs. Mo looked up and saw Lan Anran. She immediately broke into a smile.
“Anran, how are you? Have you been bullied?”
She hurriedly pushed Xia Duoduo’s hand aside and took Lan Anran’s hand.
“Grandma, I…”
Xia Duoduo was a little surprised.
“Shut up! Do you know who she is? How dare you bully her?” Old Mrs. Mo turned around and asked fiercely.
Xia Duoduo was taken aback, not expecting Lan Anran to have such a powerful background. She had spoken to Old Mrs. Mo a few times, so why was it useless now?
“Grandma, I didn’t bully her. She said that my clothes were picked up from the trash…”
Xia Duoduo felt wronged, she was looking forward to Old Mrs. Mo standing up for her and chasing this bad woman away.
Old Mrs. Mo eyed Xia Duoduo.
“Your clothes are indeed outdated, even an old lady like me can tell. Can’t you tell that you came to my birthday party dressed in such rubbish? Don’t think that you can do whatever you want just because you are the daughter of the Xia Family. I will never let anyone bully my people, take a good look at this place. How dare you behave atrociously here?
I will talk to Jinrong about the cooperation between the Xia Family and the Mo Family. You will have to see if I agree on letting anyone bully my people.”
Old Mrs. Mo spoke with such vigor that the others were startled.
At this moment, Xia Shan hurried over. When he heard that his daughter had caused trouble in front of Old Mrs. Mo and had even ruined their partnership, he was furious and slapped Xia Duoduo.
“Old Mrs. Mo, my daughter isn’t sensible and offended this young lady. I have taught her a lesson, can you forgive her?”
Xia Shan bowed.
“How dare you bully my people? Go home and reflect on yourself.”
Old Mrs. Mo was furious.
“It’s alright Grandma, Miss Xia isn’t very sensible, I don’t mind.”
Lan Anran didn’t care about them at all.
“Look at this sensible girl. Since she doesn’t mind, I won’t say anything. You can leave, you are not welcome here,” Old Mrs. Mo said.
“About the partnership…”
Xia Shan wanted to ask more. After all, the Mo Family’s cooperation was worth hundreds of millions.
“We’ll see.”
Old Mrs. Mo didn’t say anything and left with Lan Anran.
“Anran, Grandma helped you vent your anger just now. With me around, no one will dare to bully you!”
Old Mrs. Mo smiled kindly.
“Thank you Grandma. Jinrong said he had something to do and wouldn’t be coming.”
Lan Anran found a quiet place to sit down.
“I know, that rascal already told me that he wouldn’t be coming to his grandma’s birthday celebration. I couldn’t even compare to his work.”
Old Mrs. Mo complained.
“Grandma, don’t you have me?”
Lan Anran took out a small box from her bag, which looked extremely exquisite.
“This is my birthday gift to you, happy birthday.”
Lan Anran smiled and handed the gift box over.
Old Mrs. Mo accepted it happily. She opened the box and saw an emerald necklace. She was overjoyed, knowing at a glance that it wasn’t cheap.
“It’s not cheap, right?” she asked.
“It’s Grandma’s birthday gift, it’s worth it regardless of how expensive it is. This emerald is a symbol of longevity, you will definitely live to a ripe old age if you wear it.”
Lan Anran’s small mouth was as sweet as honey when she coaxed someone, making Old Mrs. Mo very happy.
“You’re so eloquent. It’s really a blessing of half a lifetime for Jinrong to marry you. Listen to Grandma tonight and don’t leave. I’ll get Jinrong to come back as well and the two of you can stay together.”
Old Mrs.. Mo smiled, not letting go of Lan Anran’s hand.
