Chapter 232

"Ahh! Sister-in-law!"

Just as the young couple were hugging each other and enjoying the Spring Festival Gala, Huo Mei Shu suddenly jumped up from the sofa very excitedly and threw herself at Rong Dai, holding up her phone to show her.

"Sister-in-law, Gu Chengyan sent me a red envelope! And he wished me Happy New Year!"

"I'm going to be so happy I faint!"

Huo Mei Shu hugged her phone to her chest and kicked her legs around excitedly.

"Sister-in-law, do you think Gu Chengyan...might actually like me a bit too? He only sent it to me! I'm going to show it off on WeChat! Just to annoy Ye Liyun!"

Rong Dai saw how the little sister-in-law's eyes were twinkling with stars, she had met Gu Chengyan before, and didn't have a particularly good impression.

But if he was good to little sister-in-law, as long as she was happy, it was a case of when it comes to feelings between a man and a woman, she would of course give them her blessing.

"Find a chance to bravely ask him and you'll know."

She smiled and replied to little sister-in-law. Her phone that was sitting on the table suddenly vibrated.

She looked at it in confusion, who would send her a message at this time?

When she opened it to look, it turned out to be multiple transfers from Huo Shaoting, and each transfer had a different message, all written very carefully.

Rong Dai, Happy New Year.

Rong Dai, I love you, indefinitely.

Rong Dai, for the rest of my life, it's all you.

Rong Dai, loving you is what I want to do for the rest of my life.

Rong Dai, missing you is what I do every moment.

Rong Dai, you are my once in a lifetime thrill.

Rong Dai, I will use my whole life to prove my love for you.

Rong Dai, protecting you is my mission.

Rong Dai, I will only hold your hand this lifetime.

Rong Dai, I will only grow old with you this lifetime.

For the rest of my life, take good care of yourself, Mrs. Huo.

3 transfers of 52,000, 8 transfers of 5,200, nearly 200,000 yuan in transfers, a full 11 carefully composed love phrases.

Rong Dai's heart instantly felt like it had fallen into a furnace, soft and scalding, her fingertips holding the phone couldn't help but tighten.

She didn't care about the amount, but his feelings.

"Showing off on WeChat, I will earn and give you anything others have."

Huo Shaoting's voice was gentle, his gaze looking at her remained gentle and doting.

"Big brother! You're deliberately attacking me!"

When Huo Mei Shu saw her brother's actions, she immediately stamped her feet.

Huo Shaoting glanced at her: "If you have the ability, send him a screenshot and see if he dares to transfer you that much? Getting excited over a few lipsticks' worth, what are you so happy about?"

Rong Dai knew his sharp tongue, afraid he would hurt little sister-in-law's feelings, secretly poked him a couple times.

But the words were already said.

The commotion from these three successfully caught old Madam's and mother-in-law's attention, and they just happened to overhear what Huo Shaoting said.

Old Madam immediately and seriously admonished Huo Mei Shu: "Mei Shu, although our family is not short on money, we don't use money to measure a person."

"But if you are tempted and fooled by little tricks, that is too shallow. You have to be careful yourself."

"Grandma, how could you listen to my brother's words as the truth? That's not what happened at all."

Huo Mei Shu immediately argued coquettishly.

"Then go on, send it. I can save on red envelopes this year."

Huo ShaoJie had just come downstairs and happened to catch this scene, and chimed in.

Rong Dai knew the one thing you couldn't provoke little sister-in-law about, and was about to remind her when it was already too late. Little sister-in-law had already taken her phone.

"Sending it I will! Who's afraid of who! Hmph!"

Huo Mei Shu said a bit angrily, also feeling a little expectant in her heart.

She wasn't expecting Gu Chengyan to give her a huge red envelope, but she wanted to know his reaction, if he had her in his heart?

Why else would he specifically send her a red envelope for New Year?

She took a screenshot of Rong Dai's phone, and incidentally took a shot of the couple's backs, and wrote: Heartless rich guy, still souring others on New Year's!

Then she hit send, and gave the phone back to Rong Dai.

Rong Dai took the phone, helpless and a little exasperated as she looked at little sister-in-law, also not knowing what to say to her, and could only glare at Huo Shaoting next to her.

Huo Shaoting's face was impassive. Although he didn't use money to measure a person's abilities, it also wasn't the Huo family's criteria in looking for a son-in-law.

But wanting to use a few small red envelopes to trick his little sister away, no matter who it was, he would not agree.

Especially that music nerd.

After Huo Mei Shu posted on WeChat, quite a few people liked it, and couldn't help but make sour comments underneath.

But Gu Chengyan's comment never appeared. She was anxious, and could only comfort herself that he must be busy and didn't have time to check her WeChat.

"Grandma, this is your red envelope, Happy New Year."

"Mom, this is yours."

After succeeding in his scheme, Huo ShaoJie was in a great mood. He took out red envelopes from behind him and handed them to old Madam and mother-in-law separately.

"Sister-in-law, this is for you, Happy New Year!"

"Thank you."

Rong Dai knew this was just a New Year's formality, so she accepted it, feeling warm inside.

"Big brother, this is yours. I'll say first, I'm very poor this year."

Huo ShaoJie also gave one to Huo Shaoting, while explaining, immediately drawing laughter from old Madam and mother-in-law.

"Here's yours, learn to grow up, just a few lipsticks' money and you're bought off."

When it was Huo Mei Shu's turn, Huo ShaoJie mocked her a sentence, but his gaze was still very doting.

"Hmph!" Huo Mei Shu turned her head away, and impatiently peeked inside the red envelope right away.

"Mrs. Wang, Uncle Li, Happy New Year to you too."

Huo ShaoJie also gave red envelopes to Mrs. Wang and Uncle Li before sitting on the sofa drinking tea, eating pastries, fruit and nuts.

Rong Dai smiled as she looked at this family, feeling extremely warm inside.

Little uncle's red envelope amount wasn't large, after all there was only so much you could fit inside, and everyone was just enjoying the festive cheer and auspicious meaning of New Year.

"Mrs. Wang, go upstairs and bring down the things I prepared."

Old Madam Huo said. Mrs. Wang smiled and went upstairs to carry down several boxes.

"Rong Rong, you come over first."

Mrs. Wang placed the boxes on the coffee table. Old Madam took a sandalwood colored box in her hands and gestured for her to come over.

"You're the new daughter-in-law, this is your first New Year in our Huo family. Grandma will give you the first new year gift."

Rong Dai looked at Huo Shaoting and after getting confirmation from his gaze, she got up and walked over. Mrs. Wang immediately brought over a wooden stool behind her.

Rong Dai sat down, feeling a little nervous.

Although this wasn't like ancient times, without so much etiquette and ritual, she was still nervous.

Old Madam opened the box, inside was a necklace.

The necklace had a ruby, that water drop shaped ruby was as big as a pigeon egg, bright and vivid, surrounded by a dozen diamonds as thick as a little finger.

With one look you could tell this necklace had history and stories behind it.

When old Madam took out this necklace, not only Lu Zheng but even Huo Shaoting was a bit surprised.
