Chapter 184: After breaking off the engagement Mr. Si chased his wife to the crematorium!
Chapter 184 Shameless Family
"What if it's from my sister..." Bai Muyao bit her lip, unable to understand how Ou Yan could bear to give such a valuable gift!
Why would an old woman need such a valuable item by his side!
"If we don't mention it, she won't know, right? Moreover, who knows which man she got this thing to please? I don't even mind if it's dirty! You take it for now, I'll keep it for your grandmother temporarily. If your grandmother really wants it someday, you can give it back to her!"
"Dad, since Mom said so, I'll keep it for Grandma for now..." Bai Muyao stepped forward to take the gemstone flower, lovingly caressing it. She liked everything about it, the design, and the functionality.
"That girl demanded sixty million from us, and we're still keeping her stuff. When she finds out later, she should thank us!"
Xu Aiqin rummaged through the boxes again, not finding what she was looking for. Then, her gaze fell under the pillow, where she noticed something.
A new cellphone!
She picked it up and saw no brand label on it. It should be some miscellaneous brand, making her look angrily at Bai Zhenhai.
"Did you buy something for Mom again?"
"It wasn't me," Bai Zhenhai pondered, "Could it be Yan Yan?"
"That girl is quite generous, isn't she? A gemstone flower, a new phone... What's she scheming!" Xu Aiqin chuckled self-assuredly, "Trying to please the old lady and get a share of the family property? Dream on!"
Bai Zhenhai also realized this, and his impression of Ou Yan worsened. Despite giving her sixty million, she still wasn't satisfied, like a hungry wolf, never satiated!
Xu Aiqin didn't expect the phone to have a password, surely set by that girl!
After unlocking it with the old lady's finger, she found the interface simple and easy to use, unexpectedly decent for a miscellaneous brand phone.
There was only one contact in the recent call list: Ou Yan.
In the past few days, the old lady had been calling Ou Yan as soon as she woke up. Xu Aiqin scrolled through the screen and found that the old lady had made at least a dozen calls. It infuriated her!
"Look at this, look at this! The first thing the old lady does when she wakes up is not to call us but to contact an outsider!"
Xu Aiqin showed the phone to Bai Zhenhai, "This proves that that girl has been buttering up the old lady to get a share of the inheritance. In the old lady's eyes and heart, she's the only one!"
Seeing their frequent communication, Bai Zhenhai's mood worsened.
"In the past, you wanted to give her a hundred thousand to leave the old lady? Now you see, a hundred thousand means nothing to her!" Xu Aiqin declared as she put the phone away in her handbag.
"What are you doing?" Although Bai Zhenhai felt uncomfortable, he couldn't stand seeing her rummaging through the old lady's belongings.
After all, the old lady was his biological mother!
"If I leave the phone here, and they become even more frequent in contacting each other, and the old lady decides to leave her the inheritance, we'll regret it!" Xu Aiqin was determined not to let them continue contacting each other!
Earlier, she had already taken away one of the old lady's phones, but she didn't expect Ou Yan to send another one. What was that girl thinking!
At this moment, Xu Aiqin inadvertently found another green item under the pillow. When she took it out and looked at it, she couldn't take her eyes off it...
What a beautiful bracelet!
It was clearly made of top-quality jade!
The color and style... Could it be another gift from that girl to the old lady?
To secure her share of the family property, that girl had really spared no expense.
"Zhenhai, look at this bracelet... It's worth at least a hundred million!" Xu Aiqin didn't hide her greed and desire, "This item further proves that that girl has sinister intentions. She has no blood relation to the old lady and was expelled from the Bai family. Logically, she wouldn't give the old lady such an expensive item!"
For a seriously ill old lady, who would she show such an expensive bracelet to?
Lying in bed every day, what's the use of wearing it!
That girl not only sent a gemstone flower and a new phone but also such an expensive piece of jewelry...
Her goal was none other than the old lady's shares, properties, cars, and savings!
"She dares to think so!" Bai Zhenhai didn't expect Ou Yan's ambitions to be so great. Even though their actions hurt her later, she couldn't expect to take over the Bai family's property!
Xu Aiqin put the bracelet in her handbag, "I want to make it clear that I'm not interested in the old lady's belongings. The reason I took them is that I don't want the old lady to be deceived by that girl anymore and don't want her to be sentimental!"
Bai Zhenhai also found some truth in her words.
"I don't believe that girl would spend money on the old lady again!"
If she did, Xu Aiqin would definitely take it away until she dared not send it again!
"Dad, Mom, Grandma moved her fingers!"
With Bai Muyao's discovery, Bai Zhenhai and Xu Aiqin all looked at the old lady.
After a while, Li Yue'e slowly opened her eyes and coughed lightly.
"Mom, you're awake?" Xu Aiqin immediately raised the bed to 45 degrees and said considerately, "Yao Yao, where's the pillow you gave Grandma? Go get it!"
"Oh, okay..." Bai Muyao hurriedly placed the newly bought pillow behind Li Yue'e's waist and asked gently and considerately, "Grandma, does this feel better?"
Li Yue'e had just heard someone talking incessantly by her ear, but she didn't hear clearly. At this moment, she weakly leaned against the bedhead, feeling uncomfortable with the thing behind her waist.
"It's too hard, take it away." As Li Yue'e was lying at a 45-degree angle on the bed and suddenly had a hard pillow stuffed behind her waist, she found it hard to breathe.
"This is Yao Yao's little thought..." Xu Aiqin hurriedly said, "Yao Yao also brought you many things, this bouquet of flowers, she just put it up, saying that you've been sick for a long time and haven't seen the outside scenery for a long time. This bouquet of flowers can let you feel the beauty of summer!"
"..." Li Yue'e just glanced at the flowers in the vase, feeling somewhat speechless.
White lilies themselves are not poisonous, but the strong fragrance contains a slight toxicity, which can cause insomnia at night...
Placing a few plants in a space with poor ventilation wouldn't have much effect, but in a small sickroom, for a heart patient like her, such a strong fragrance would be detrimental to her recovery.
Moreover, there are also several pink tulips in the vase. It is well known that tulip flowers contain alkaloids. If you stay around tulips for one or two hours, you will experience dizziness and poisoning.
This kind of flower also emits fine particles, which may cause skin allergies, itching, and in serious cases, hair loss.
Who knows what they're up to.
