This time, Jiang Piaopiao tightly held her mother's hand. She realised that her words were not important to her family. No one was left to listen to reason, or perhaps, they had no reason to listen to her words anymore, "The second master of the Leng family is waiting outside! Do you want to humiliate me so I can no longer face him? You don't care about me, but have you ever thought about the Jiang family?"
He Baiyue had heard of the news of the second master of the Leng family, so she didn't dare to offend him.
Otherwise, what would happen to her precious son and daughter? The only unwanted person in this house was Jiang Piaopiao, but she could do nothing to help the family!
Jiang Piaopiao shook off He Baiyue's hand and went upstairs to pack her luggage without looking back. She didn't have many things, much less anything valuable. She only took away her teaching materials and important certificates and documents. A simple box could fit them all. This was the home she had lived in for more than 20 years!
As soon as she went downstairs, her father's harsh voice could be heard, "Let me ask you, where's the bride price? Which family doesn't receive the bride price for their daughter?"
Jiang Piaopiao sneered. Her father had been watching the scene just now, but hadn't said anything. Now he wanted benefits from her.
Gu Ye pushed Leng Mu into the room before she could say anything. When his gaze landed on Jiang Piaopiao's swollen cheeks, his eyes flashed coldly behind his glasses.
Jiang Piaopiao frowned. Gu Ye blocked her just as she was about to look closer.
Gu Ye noticed that his boss's gaze was not right. He stood before Leng Mu and explained, "Second Master was worried that you had too many things and wanted to come in and help."
When Jiang Piaopiao heard this, she subconsciously turned her face away. She didn't want Leng Mu to see this embarrassing scene. She carried a small box and quickly walked to Leng Mu's side, "There's nothing more. Let's go."
"Take it easy." Cold Mu pushed his glasses up his nose with his slender fingers, reminding himself to maintain his refined and elegant image, suppressing the urge to kill someone. He patted Jiang Piaopiao's hand and said, "Your father makes a valid point. It's reasonable to expect a dowry when marrying off a daughter."
"Second Master." Jiang Piaopiao said anxiously. She did not want the Jiang family to take advantage of her.
"Trust me. I know what to do." Leng Mu comforted her gently." Then, he looked at Jiang Qingshan, "How much bride price do you want, father?"
Jiang Qingshan didn't want to take advantage of the terrifying Second Master Leng.
It was just that they had already agreed with the Director last night to send Jiang Piaopiao over. He could get 100,000 yuan and could even get a contract. Now that he didn't get a single cent and had offended the director, he was naturally unhappy.
Looking at Leng Mu now, he couldn't afford to offend him either. He could only smile stiffly, "Second Master, as you please."
Leng Mu nodded, "I promised Piaopiao to give her a Dongting Lake Villa this morning. But it's not enough. I need to send her more…"
Coincidentally, Jiang Zhenzhen was yawning as she came downstairs. When she heard this, she was pleasantly surprised, "Dongting Lake Villa?" She excitedly held He Baiyue's arm and said coquettishly, "Mommy, I want to live there! In the future, it will be my dowry!"
"Ok." He Baiyue agreed.
Jiang Zhenzhen felt no problem and said excitedly, "When I move in, I'll invite my sisters to hold a party. When they see my villa, they'll be jealous!"
Jiang Piaopiao looked at the family and was not surprised at all. However, her heart still ached. After all, she used to work very hard to get her parents' approval, but she should have given up long ago after being disappointed repeatedly.
How could she still have expectations?
Everyone in the family felt it was only right for her to give her things to her sister. If she dared to object, she would be guilty!
Leng Mu looked at the absent-minded Jiang Piaopiao and felt as if someone had stabbed his heart, causing it to ache. He wished he could blow up the people in front of him. However, he could not do it now.
Suppressing his anger, he took a document from Gu Ye and handed it to Jiang Qingshan, "Add another piece of land and another 99.99 million as bride price?"
Jiang Qingshan was so surprised that his hands were shaking.
He Baiyue and Jiang Zhenzhen were also excited. They never expected Piaopiao could only bring so much money. The money could simply buy the Jiang family house many times!
Jiang Piaopiao was also trembling, but she was angry! Before she could say anything, Leng Mu grabbed her hand and said, "Piaopiao, your father is right. I should pay the bride's price. If I don't, my reputation will be ruined."
Jiang Qingshan immediately glared at Jiang Piaopiao, "Second Master is right. His reputation is important. Don't pretend to know what you don't know. After becoming his wife, you should behave yourself!" If the money was gone because of Jiang Piaopiao, he would want to kill her!
