After dinner, Bao Junyan asked the butler to bring him the tablet. He said that he had a few vivid red rubies in possession, and if Gu Chenyi and Lin Qingya would choose a design they liked using the tablet, he would have the stones inlaid into jewelry pieces as wedding gifts to them.

The magnificent ruby is the king of gems, and vivid red rubies are the best grade of rubies!

Lin Qingya’s eyes lit up instantly, for she had always liked luxury items like gemstones. She was just about to reach out toward the butler to take the tablet from him…

When Gu Chenyi declined, saying, “There’s no need, Uncle. Qingya doesn’t like gemstones and diamonds and such things. We were out shopping today and she even chose a wedding ring that was an ordinary platinum band!”

Lin Qingya: “…!!!”

This death-deserving Gu Chenyi! Is he stupid or something?! Vivid red rubies! These are rare luxury items!

Bao Junyan looked at him in surprise. He wasn’t surprised that Lin Qingya didn’t like rubies, for he had always disregarded the girl anyway. He was surprised, rather, at what Gu Chenyi had said.

As though he’d seen something with that one glance he threw them, his expression darkened.

Mu Huan, on the other hand, looked at Lin Qingya. She didn’t like gemstones and diamonds and such things?

Hehe…

From the time they were little, Lin Qingya had been most obsessed with such things!

She was indeed sacrificing a whole lot to act lofty!

Go on acting, then! If she were capable, she should keep it up for the rest of her life! At least that would make her an awesome person!

Lin Qingya tightened her fists under the table as she met Mu Huan’s eyes that were filled with sarcasm and mockery.

Initially, she had thought that after putting in so much effort to win Gu Chenyi, there would finally be a switch in their positions. She would be the one in a much higher position and Mu Huan would become more pathetic than ever, needing her charity for the rest of her life.

Never had she expected that it would turn out like this!

Mu Huan was still in that lofty position! Lin Qingya seethed with hatred! She hated the girl!

Then she thought, now that she was bearing a child of the Gu family and her status was secure, there was no longer a need for her to hold herself back. Hence, she looked toward Bao Junyan and said, “Uncle, Xiao Huan has always liked gemstones. And she has such fair skin — she’d look most beautiful wearing rubies!”

Her words implied that Mu Huan was a vain and materialistic woman. Otherwise, why would she like luxury items like gemstones?

Having said that, she looked toward Mu Huan with provocation in her eyes that only Mu Huan would have understood.

She had thought that Mu Huan would fret and, like in the past, be desperate to offer some sort of explanation.

Unexpectedly, Mu Huan looked toward Bao Junyan and flashed him a sweet smile, saying, “Hubby, I adore all these glittery things like gemstones and diamonds! I also love beautiful bags and beautiful clothes! Every time I go shopping, I feel like buying non-stop!”

Bao Junyan reached out to dotingly pat her head, then said, “Whatever you like, we’ll buy.”

Lin Qingya: “…!!!”

What had gone wrong with the world?

Mu Huan had so obviously stated that she was a vain and materialistic shopping addict, yet not only did Bao Junyan not feel that she was a money worshiper, he had even dotingly said that they’d buy whatever she fancied!

What the hell!

What sort of intelligent big boss was this?! He was a solid gold fool!

“Sister-in-law is indeed straightforward and very adorable!” Mrs. Gu decided that she was liking Mu Huan more and more.

Lin Qingya felt even more like spewing blood now!

Did all these people have damaged brains?!

One had acted so dotingly toward a shopping addict money worshiper, and another had just remarked that she was adorable!

What sort of worldly logic was this?! Did money worshipers suddenly become a trend?

At this point, Mu Huan looked toward Lin Qingya and exclaimed, “Yup, I am a vulgar person and love these things, unlike Qingya — who lives up to her elegant and classy name. Buying worldly things like gemstones for her would be akin to insulting her!”
