Rong Qi glanced down at the box on the table and scoffed. “You want me to return a gift?”

Mrs. Rong Sr. nodded, failing to conceal the greed in her eyes.

Nonchalantly, Rong Qi plucked a button from her sleeve and laid it on the table. “This is something I always carry with me. It’s a small token, but it comes with great affection. Surely, you wouldn’t mind accepting such a humble offering?”

The solitary button spun a few times on the table before coming to a stop. Mrs. Rong Sr. immediately became furious.

Wang Qing, whose face still showed signs of an injury, visibly twitched. “Little Qi, you’re joking, right?”

“Absolutely not,” Rong Qi replied, dead serious.

“You offer a mere button as a gift? Don’t you worry about becoming the laughingstock? Remember, you are Mr. Ye’s wife.”

Rong Qi looked up, unbothered. “If anyone thinks it’s not enough, let them make an offering on my behalf.”

Wang Qing was speechless, tongue-tied by Rong Qi’s audacity.

Mrs. Rong Sr. was similarly at a loss for words. She cleared her throat, “I understand we came on short notice and you weren’t prepared. But truly, I’d be grateful for any gift you offer. Those items on the table over there seem lovely. Just let us pick a few and we’ll call it even.”

Mrs. Hong, who stood behind Rong Qi, couldn’t help but feel irritated when she noticed that the trio’s attention had shifted toward the gifts displayed on the long table. She leaned in to whisper, “Ma’am, those were gifts that Master Shen specifically ordered to be brought here for you.”

Rong Qi nodded, narrowing her eyes at Mrs. Rong Sr. “See anything you like?”

Mrs. Rong Sr. misinterpreted Rong Qi’s tone and broke into a gleeful smile. “Darling, don’t hold back on my account. Whatever you give, I won’t find it inadequate.”

“Actually, Grandma really fancies the jeweled bracelet on the top of the pile,” Rong Feiyu chimed in cheerfully. “We were both captivated by it as soon as we arrived.”

The thought that these were gifts Ye Nanshen had arranged for Rong Qi soured Rong Feiyu’s mood instantly.

“That bracelet must be worth millions, right? It even glows under the light!” said Rong Feiyu.

Rong Feiyu thought that if she could get Rong Qi to give the bracelet to Mrs. Rong Sr., she could somehow acquire it later. Rong Feiyu could hardly contain her excitement.

Mrs. Hong chuckled, “Millions? When has anything Master Shen gifted been so cheap?”

Rong Feiyu and her companions were astounded. “Then how much is it? Surely not ten million?”

Mrs. Hong shook her head, smiling. “It’s a mere twelve billion.”

“Twelve billion!” The trio gasped, their mouths wide open in disbelief.

Mrs. Rong Sr. felt bitterness engulfing her. “For just a bracelet? Wouldn’t it be better if you gave that twelve billion to me instead?”

Mrs. Hong frowned, “Master Shen went to great lengths to find this unique treasure. The only concern was whether our Madam would like it. As for you, Mrs. Rong Sr., you’re past the age of needing much money. Why sour the mood?”

Mrs. Rong Sr. struggled to contain her indignation. “You asked what we wanted, didn’t you? I’ll take that bracelet. And Feiyu has her eye on a dress, too. Have someone bring them here.”

Mrs. Rong Sr. spoke as if she were the true mistress of the estate..
