Chapter 295 (2/2)

“What are you doing? It’s my birthday today. Do you want me to wash the dishes in front of the child?”

Chi Jianming’s eyes widened, and he frowned as he argued with li Lijuan in a low voice.

Li Lijuan hit Chi Jianming’s shoulder hard, trying to wake him up.

“You’re really stupid! Who needs you to wash the dishes? you don’t have to wash them tonight, you can wash them tomorrow! I’m talking about something more important, the red packet has not been confiscated!”

Only then did Chi Jianming remember. He was stunned for a moment. Yes, he hadn’t done the proper business yet!

He wanted to rush out when li Lijuan stopped him.

“The cake hasn’t been cut yet. Even if your birthday isn’t over, don’t be impulsive and ask her directly. You have to be careful with the way you speak. It’s good enough that you’ve achieved your goal. I’m still hoping that she will give you more in the future. Don’t cause a scene again!”

“I know, I know!”

When Chi Jianming went out again, he was already half sober.

He remembered that he had brought a cake and a fruit basket with him when Chi Luoxi entered the house.

He hadn’t given her the red packet yet. Was he going to give it to her when he wanted to cut the cake?

Chi Jianming saw that Chi Luoxi was calm and composed throughout the entire dinner. She was neither servile nor overbearing, and he couldn’t tell what she was feeling.

This was even more difficult to figure out.

Chi Jianming sat back at the dining table and laughed,”

“I’m very happy tonight. My two daughters have grown up. They’re here to celebrate my father’s birthday. They gave me gifts and red packets. I didn’t dote on you for nothing. I didn’t raise you for nothing!”

Of course, Chi Jiaojiao understood her father’s meaning. She poured a glass of water for her father and said with a pretentious smile,”

“Dad, you’re too polite. This is what we should do. Come and have a cup of tea.”

Chi Jianming saw that Chi yaoxi still didn’t say a word. This child hadn’t spoken much throughout dinner, not even a Happy Birthday.

Since that was the case, he could only take the initiative to ask. The old woman said that he had to pay attention to the method. If he couldn’t ask for it directly, he would have to use another method.

“Luoxi, do you want big brother to call President Li, Li Qianqian? see if he’s back and done with his work. Do you want to come over and eat cake?”

“No need, he’s very busy, he doesn’t have time to come.”

Chi luexi said without hesitation.

Li Lijuan couldn’t sit still when she saw that Chi Luoxi still didn’t move.

She gave Chi Jiaojiao a look and Chi Jiaojiao understood her mother’s meaning. She followed her and the two of them came to the room.

Li Lijuan took out a wrapped red packet. It was very thick inside and looked like there was at least a few thousand Yuan inside. She handed it to Chi Jiaojiao and said,

“Jiaojiao, I know that your family is in a difficult situation now and I don’t intend to accept this. How about this, when you go out later, pass this big red packet to me in front of your sister Chi Luoxi. Just take it as a token of appreciation from you and Lin Zixuan.”

Chi Jiaojiao wasn’t embarrassed at all. She took the red packet directly and put it in her pocket. She smiled and said,”

“I know, I know. My mom is really smart. I was wondering why Chi luexi was so petty. She’s a rich person, but she didn’t even give her father a big red packet on his birthday.”

Chi Jiaojiao sat in front of the dining table. After eating another piece of fruit, she took out a thick red packet from her pocket and stood up to hand it to her father, Chi Jianming.

“Dad, Happy Birthday! This is a little token from Lin Zixuan and me!”

Chi Jianming was very surprised. He reached out and took the red packet in surprise. It was heavy. It was a lot of money!
