Chapter 1005: What’s the Fun Without Playing it Tough?
Chapter 1005: What’s the Fun Without Playing it Tough?
This was definitely Di Mingjue’s doing. Despite being a science student, his foundation in liberal arts was solid, and the characters written on the red packets for such an occasion had their own unique charm.
Shen Yilan felt an even stronger urge to cry upon seeing the red packet. She couldn’t help but quietly open it to take a look, inside was a stack of money.
Shen Yilan didn’t have time to count it carefully, but she estimated it should be two thousand, because good things come in pairs.
There were countless guests today, but even if the number was large, it was only a few hundred at most, which was already quite a lot.
A few hundred people, two thousand each, amounted to just several hundred thousand in total. Shen Yilan believed that Di Mingjue did not lack this money.
He had not accepted any gifts, but it was practically the same thing because, needless to say, the gifts from the honored guests, as well as from the Magic Cube contestants, were more or less this price as the baseline.
After all, with Di Mingjue’s status and position, would you dare buy a baby clothes gift box worth merely two or three hundred and come?
If you decided to come, you would definitely choose an international first-class brand for infants and young children.
Such brands use high-quality pure cotton, and regardless of the urgency, the brand’s qualifications and the fame of the designer remained the same. The price for a set of baby clothes gift boxes would be no less than a thousand.
Of course, the gifts from those honored guests were likely not within this price range, which is why Di Mingjue’s red packet return was also a very friendly gesture, particularly also out of happiness and celebration.
At that moment, Di Mingchen walked up to Di Mingjue, lighting a cigarette with a smile and asked, "Are you planning to let this woman off the hook?"
Di Mingjue’s lips curved, revealing an extreme chill, "Let her off? Just let her be happy for a few days, then let her taste what it is like to be completely disgraced. How can it be interesting if I don’t play rough?"
Dealing with a lowly person? There’s no fun in tormenting the body, if you want to torment, torment the heart.
Moreover, by that time, someone would be very willing to help him torment Shen Yilan’s body.
Anyone who dares to touch his wife, just you wait.
Di Mingchen’s lips curled up into a smile, it seemed that Di Mingjue already had plans, and thus he didn’t need to interfere anymore.
Walking through the manor, Shen Yilan’s heart was filled with complex emotions. She did not expect to run into Gu Qibao along the way.
With Nangong Ran and a group of people surrounding her, Gu Qibao walked past, chatting and laughing, looking quite lively.
She was wearing a light pink dress that was flattering rather than loose-fitting, highlighting her slender waist. The little belly had tightened, no longer flat as in her girlhood. The curve was slightly visible beneath the wrap of the dress.
With twins, the belly is naturally more pronounced. Some twins make a woman’s belly look like three months at just one month into the pregnancy.
Gu Qibao was still doing fine, her belly was not too big, and her body remained svelte and delicate, seemingly even slimmer than before.
Nevertheless, her complexion looked quite healthy, her fair skin glowed with a lustrous sheen, retaining her youthful and lovely appearance.
She was wearing a pair of simple white canvas shoes, which made her legs appear long and fair, full of vitality.
She did not walk slowly at all and was in fact quite swift. Her eyes sparkled with enthusiasm as she chattered about something with the girl beside her, grinning from ear to ear.
That exuberant and confident demeanor radiated particular self-assurance and exceptional happiness.
Yes, today was her stage, this was her territory, she was the leading lady, the center of everyone’s attention.
A crowd followed behind her, including bodyguards, nurses, and servants—it was quite a spectacle.
Indeed, many guests greeted her politely, some even initiated conversations with her, and their envious flattery was unmistakable.
That’s people for you, always acting this way when faced with someone of higher status, subconsciously hoping to cling to coattails and curry favors.
Had she not had past conflicts with her, she might have felt the same way too.
