Chapter 531 - Return two-fold!
Huang Yueli turned slightly as the sides of her lips curved upwards into a smile which didn’t look like a smile.
“Second Uncle, I’m so sorry but the gatekeeper told us that you are holding your birthday celebration today and everyone who comes must present you with a gift! Unfortunately, I came back in a hurry today…..”
Although Huang Yueli looked like she was smiling and the intonation she used was extremely courteous, but not only did Bai Liu Jing not show a sense of relief, instead the sweat beads on his forehead kept sprouting, as if he was in an adverse situation.
He hurriedly cut into her words, “No problem, no problem. Li’er, you’re one of us, there’s no need for any presents. Really, don’t take the trouble! Second Uncle knows the regards that you have for me and I appreciate it very much!”
Huang Yueli laughed lightly, “How can we do that? To come empty handed, if this rumour was spread out, other people would say….. that the daughter of the Martial Valiant Manor doesn’t know her etiquette! What’s more, I had already informed the gatekeeper that I had prepared a gift. Uncle please accept it!”
Bai Liu Jing’s heart was pounding non-stop.
If it was one month ago, he would probably believe that Huang Yueli had done it out of good will.
But today, he absolutely cannot believe such words.
Since when did this lass become so kind-hearted? What kind of birthday gift will she give him? If she was really here to send her birthday congratulations, was there a need to injure those guards so severely?
