Although there were many younger generation members who gave Old Master Luo expensive gifts, it was obvious that Luo Yiyi had put a lot of effort into studying Old Master Luo’s thoughts. Her gift was particularly prominent among the pile of gifts.
“Yiyi is thoughtful.” Old Master Luo smiled and nodded at Luo Yiyi. “I like it very much.”
“I didn’t spend much effort.”
Luo Yiyi waved her hand shyly and pretended to be reserved. “As long as you like it.”
The guests at the side saw this and repeatedly praised, “It’s not easy to find a specimen of five-colored blue and white porcelain of this quality on the market. Even if you have money, you might not be able to buy it. Looks like Miss Luo really spent a lot of effort.”
“You’re right. It seems like we were a little biased against her before. Isn’t she quite filial?”
“I agree. The gift that Miss Luo has given is the most expensive and thoughtful. I’ve never seen anything better than her.”
Luo Yiyi could not help but feel a little smug when she heard the praises.
She turned her head and suddenly looked at Shen Jiao. She gave her a sweet smile and said, “Jiaojiao, what gift did you prepare for grandfather? Bring it out and let us see it.”
Shen Jiao raised her eyes slightly. Luo Yiyi suddenly mentioned her, she was definitely up to no good.
She looked calm and only revealed a faint smile. “Of course.”
Shen Jiao asked someone to bring over the jewelry box that was placed in the VIP lounge.
The moment Luo Yiyi saw the jewelry box, a malicious smile flashed across her eyes.
“Grandpa, this is my gift to you.”
Shen Jiao walked forward graciously and handed the gift box to Old Master Luo.
Old Master Luo didn’t like Shen Jiao, but he couldn’t show it under everyone’s watchful eyes. He took the gift box casually and opened it.
However, the next second, Old Master Luo’s expression changed abruptly. He shoved the gift box back into Shen Jiao’s hands and yelled at her angrily, “What is the meaning of this? Are you trying to annoy me or curse me?!”
Shen Jiao frowned. She opened the gift box and found that the jade inside had broken into several pieces.
Luo Yiyi leaned her head over to take a look and cried out exaggeratedly.
“Jiaojiao, why was the jade broken? Don’t you know that it’s bad luck if the jade is broken? This is the gift you gave Grandpa for his birthday. Aren’t you going a little too far?”
As one got older, the more superstitious one became. Today was Old Master Luo’s 70th birthday, and Shen Jiao had given him a broken jade. What did that mean? There was no need to say it out loud; everyone knew what it meant.
“Jiaojiao, how could you do this?”
Luo Lan saw the situation and quickly added fuel to the fire. “Even if you really have a problem with my father because of what happened last time, you can’t curse him like this at his 70th birthday banquet! Don’t you think that doing this to an old man is too vicious? You’re really… Sigh!”

As she said this, she even pretended to sigh.
“Good, very good!”
Sure enough, the mother and daughter pair worked together on both sides. Old Master Luo was extremely angry, he sneered and glared at her, “You’re holding a grudge because of the last time, and you deliberately want to take revenge on me. Having a granddaughter-in-law like you is really my good fortune!”
“Leave now. You don’t have to attend the birthday banquet of an old man like me, lest you bring even more bad luck.”
Because of Old Master Luo’s words, the expressions of the people around Shen Jiao changed subtly..
