The birthday hall was completely silent.
Ji was staring at Yuan Meng's hand in which she was holding a silk small silk bag and had opened it.
It was not only her but there were many young men and women who were staring at the silk bag with their eyes wide open without even blinking for a moment.
Everyone was interested to know what would she have brought that made Ji ask her so much for a gift.
To them, she might have brought some fake pendant or some other jewellery but after seeing the excitement with which Ji was asking for a gift from Yuan Meng, everyone began to doubt their thoughts.
All the time, when the big bosses of the Shenzhen and cities around it were giving Ji some gifts of gold and other expensive jewellery, she was never excited so much but now she was completely different.
Ye Qian was also looking at the small bag in Yuan Meng's hand and wondered as to what was in it that would make Ji so much excited.
Yuan Meng c brought something out of the small bag but closed her palm and turned to Ji.
"Close your eyes."
She whispered lightly.
"Hmm."
Ji nodded without saying a word and closed her eyes.
Yuan Meng brought her palm in front of her and opened it while saying.
"Open them."
"TCHH"
Many men and women shook their and glanced at the small thing in Yuan Meng's hand.
Obviously, they were mocking Yuan Meng's gift.
The one gift in Yuan Meng's hand didn't even seem to be worth a percent of any of the gifts which they had gifted Ji for her birthday.
Now all they wanted to see was a drama where Ye Qian and Yuan Meng would be thrown out of the hall for disgracing the Young Miss of the Yuan family.
'Heh, you think that piece of scrap is even worth a glass of wine which you two just had?'
'Peasants will always be peasants, no matter how much they climb.'
Many were already mocking in their heart and looked down at Yuan Meng and Ye Qian in disdain.
But some of them had a different thought in their mind.
'When they are thrown out, I will try to give that girl some pity, there is no way she won't feel sad after getting embarrassed in front of so many people.'
'Yeah, this might be a golden opportunity to have a taste of a forbidden fruit.'
Many young masters were already dreaming of how they would be like a worrier on a horse coming to rescue a princess when Yuan Meng would be about to be kicked out for embarrassing Ji.
Ji opened her eyes and as if she appeared to be shocked she continuously stared at the small ornament which had a beautiful swan-like design on it.
She then looked at Yuan Meng her lips trembling as if she wanted to say something but words were not coming out of her mouth.
Her gaze alternated between Yuan Meng and the white brooch in her hand.
'Heh, she is so angry that she has started to tremble from it.'
'That woman, though she had a beauty compared to that of a mythical fairy, she really has no thought of how the society works.'
'If someone were to give such a puny thing to a great person, then of course the person would be angered.'
'What a pity, the saying is indeed true, a too beautiful woman might lack some reasoning and intellect.'
Many men were already sighing as they thought of the same thing.
Now all of them were just waiting for, the Young Miss of the Yuan family to shout at the couple and order her men to throw them out.
'This lady doesn't know that miss Ji would lose so much face if she were to receive that gift of hers.'
'It would have been better if she hadn't given anything to her.'
Many young masters were already readying themselves to how they should convince and make Yuan Meng fall in their hands.
And like this, a whole 2 minutes passed but Ji didn't utter a word.
Many Young masters were already looking desperate, as they had been thinking too much of how they would convince this beauty but the more time they got the more they thought and the more confused they started to get when thinking if that plan of there would work.
Ye Qian was also looking at Ji and Yuan Meng all the time.
And since he was closest to them, he could see that there was a sense of longing and love in Ji's eyes as she stared at the Brooch in Yuan Meng's hand.
He also wondered as to what would be something that would make Ji feel so emotional that she would have tears in her eyes.
He had known her for some time.
She was a bit childish girl who wanted to be spoiled and Yuan Meng would always spoil her like a Big Sister, he felt that maybe the two would have known each other for a long time and that was why they had a very close relationship.
And at that time when he first met Ji when she was being forced upon by that Li fellow, there were no tears in her eyes but only anger, usually if a woman was being forced she would fall into despair and would cry, but Ji was just angry.
And Yuan Meng also had a simple yet motherly smile on her lips as she saw the change in Ji's emotions.
The young masters who had been waiting for their imaginations to turn into reality were holding their breaths and in a few more moments they would for sure suffocate from not breathing.
Ji extended her hand which was trembling slightly at Yuan Meng.
'Yes, now she will be slapped for belittling her with giving her such a petty gift.'
But what they all have been dreaming of never happened.
