nBut before Jiang Ran could finish, Jiang Guo took a step forward and picked up the book very carefully.
n
"Where did you find it? I've asked someone to look for this unique copy for a long time, but I still couldn't find it!
"
nIt was a chess book, and Jiang Guo was a chess addict. He had asked someone to look for this chess book a year ago.
nHe had just learned that an old man had this chess book in his possession.
nJiang Guo had even offered a high price to buy it, but that old man refused to sell it no matter what.
nHe had never thought that this chess book would appear in front of her like this.
n
"That's great! Jiang Yu, how did you know that I've been looking for this ancient book!
"
n
"This is a priceless treasure!
"
nIn an instant, many people could tell that the gift that Jiang Yu had taken out was not some piece of trash, but something priceless.
nJiang Yu was also stunned for a moment. She did not understand why it was a tattered ancient book. However, she believed that the gift that Mo Long prepared would not be wrong.
nNow that she saw how much Jiang Guo liked it, she immediately understood.
nJiang Ran stood awkwardly on the spot. Her fingers were still pointing at Jiang Yu. She was thinking that after today, Jiang Yu would definitely have a bad reputation in the circle of wealthy families.
nWho would have thought…
nJiang Hai also heaved a sigh of relief. He quickly looked at Jiang Ran and said,
"Didn't you say that this thing is not valuable? Why aren't you apologizing to your sister?
"
n
"Dad! I... I originally thought that this was a tattered old book. I also reminded my sister not to make mistakes for her own good. I didn't expect that I was wrong.
"
nJiang Ran quickly changed her excuse and apologized to Jiang Guo,
"Uncle, I'm sorry. I was rash.
"
nJiang Guo was still happy, so he didn't care about such a small matter.
nOnly Jiang Yu said coldly,
"Oh, you thought it was an old book? I remember that you haven't even seen the gift I prepared, my good sister!
"
nJiang Yu's words made Jiang Ran feel extremely awkward.
n
"Sister, I really did it for your own good. I thought you were short of money recently and couldn't prepare any gifts. I've apologised to you okay?
"
nSeeing that all the guests were looking in her direction, Jiang Ran's expression changed.
nJiang Ran gritted her teeth and immediately acted like they were sisters.
n
"Heh!
" Jiang Yu snorted coldly. She was about to say something when Jiang Hai interrupted her.
"Alright, let's go in quickly. Your uncle still needs to entertain the other guests.
"
nJust like that, a farce was forcefully interrupted by Jiang Hai.
nHe did not want to see his two daughters continue to clash at such an occasion.
nNo matter who won the argument, he would be the one who would lose face.
nJiang Guo looked at Jiang Yu in a new light. He immediately smiled at Jiang Yu and said,
"Jiang Yu, hurry up and go in. You and Yao'er will also meet. Both of you are of the same age. There will definitely be something to talk about.
"
nJiang Yao was the young miss who was engaged today.
nJiang Yu paused for a moment and did not say anything in the end.
nShe just nodded lightly and walked in.
nHowever, she felt rather sad in her heart.
nShe did not expect Jiang Hai to believe Jiang Ran's words and accuse her before she had even verified it clearly.
nAnd after she had proven her innocence, Jiang Hai still protected Jiang Ran and did not let her make a fool of herself.
nIn other words, Jiang Ran was the young miss whose identity could not be tarnished. And it didn't matter what happened to her, right?
nJiang Yu was a little unhappy.
nShe greeted Jiang Yao, but Jiang Yao probably didn't know her very well, so she ignored her. Instead, she chatted and laughed with Jiang Ran. After all, the two of them had been in contact since they were young.
nThey had a lot of common topics.
nWhen Jiang Hai saw Jiang Yu's dull look, he immediately shook his head in his heart.
nNo matter how well-dressed Jiang Yu looked, she grew up in the countryside and had no ink in her stomach. When she came to such an occasion to socialize with socialites, Jiang Yu couldn't say a word.
nShe looked as if she was mute.
