Maybe it was because Madam Ruan gave Ling Tianya such a special treatment that everyone seemed to be waiting to see her fall.
Third Mrs. Ruan and Ruan Lijia couldn't hide their expectations, eyes fixated on the box in Ling Tianya's hand and minds already rehearsing the words they were going to use to humiliate Ling Tianya.
Ling Tianya calmed and took in the looks people were giving her. She didn't seem to be bothered the slightest. She kept smiling and holding the qi pao box at the level of the old lady's chin. Then she opened the box slowly while everyone watched her with great curiosity and expectation.
"Grandma, this is a small gift from me, and I hope you like it."
The second the box was opened, almost everyone was staring into the box at the qi pao inside. Then the next second, waves of laughter followed.
