Chapter 315 - Getting Rich Instantly (1/2)
“Thank you, Old Master.” Ling Sheng smiled as she thanked him. The Old Master had insisted that she take it out to see if she liked it. When she opened the gift, she saw a sapphire diamond necklace. It was even more dazzling than the one she had borrowed from Sister Mei last time. One look and one could tell that it was priceless.
Could the old folks not be like this? Her heart could not take it anymore. She had been given one priceless treasure after another. Was it really appropriate to use such treasures as greeting gifts?
Only when the old folks gave their greeting gifts could the others give theirs to her. They could not mess up the family rules. Starting from the old folks, they would give her greeting gifts one after another.
Ling Sheng’s hands were full. Elders could only give a junior—especially a girl—jewelry to ensure that the gift had value and was nothing embarrassing. Besides, rich people offered things worth tens of millions at a go and kept saying that they were not valuable and that they could wear them for fun.
Su Xiyin and Ling Sheng kept thanking them, and the former helped her carry the gifts. If she could not carry them, she would give them to Huo Ci and have him carry them.
Ling Sheng finally understood what it felt like to get rich instantly. Her hands went limp when she received the gifts, and she also deeply understood what it meant to be the poorest member of a family. Look at the gifts they had given her. They were akin to toys, but they were worth tens of millions. Even if she worked hard on a television drama, she would only be able to buy less than one-tenth of such a gift.
There was an obvious difference between them!
What a blow!
She vowed to work hard and earn money. One day, she would be able to fork out 10 million yuan. Then, she would tell them, “It’s nothing. You can spend it however you want.”
Old Master Su had given Xiaoqi a jade ring, which made Huo Ci’s eyes turn red. He had gone all out to ask for it before, but Old Master Su had not given it to him. Instead, he had given it to this brat.
That jade ring had been a gift from Emperor Wu of Han to Flying General Fei, Li Guang. He had been eyeing it for most of his life. How biased of him!
