"Bai Haoxue... you..."
"What about , Uncle?" Bai Haoxue’s expression was quite innocent.
Bai Xiongan couldn’t vent his anger, after all, there was nothing wrong with what Bai Haoxue said!
The chairman next to him couldn’t help but twitch his lips.
Such a fresh and unconventional birthday blessing, it’s indeed the first ti I’ve heard it.
Refreshing!
Interesting!
"Hey, what’s with you? You broke the gift, can you afford to compensate? Look, all the gifts have been knocked over by you."
The attendant guarding the gifts saw the gifts "accidentally" knocked down by Lin Zhan and shouted out loud.
This shout imdiately drew everyone’s attention to the situation.
"I’m sorry, I’m sorry..." Lin Zhan apologized.
"It’s a minor thing, why make such a fuss? Hurry up and apologize to Special Assistant Lin!" Bai Xiongan went over and scolded the attendant.
The attendant quickly apologized to Lin Zhan, then bent down to pick up and rearrange the gifts one by one.
"Oh my, what is this gift?"
At this mont, a guest who was helping to pick up the gifts picked up a broken gift and looked incredulously at the item in their hand.
Her exclamation made everyone look at what she was holding.
The gift box was broken, and in her hand was a large clock.
Receiving a clock for a fiftieth birthday—doesn’t that imply wishing the recipient dead, like attending a funeral?
A birthday party is all about celebrating, and sending a clock clearly shows ill intentions!
Bai Xiongan looked at Bai Haoxue, his face turning dark, then pale with anger, and he shouted, "Bai Haoxue..."
"Uncle, why are you looking at ?" Bai Haoxue’s innocent big eyes sparkled, "Indeed, I gave this gift, but I’m not the one who dropped it. Once this clock’s dropped, doesn’t it beco a mourning clock? Tsk tsk tsk... that’s really unlucky."
Bai Xiongan: "..."
Everyone present: "..."
Lin Zhan, holding back laughter: "..."
Miss Haoxue truly has a sharp tongue!
Bai Haoxue, "Uncle, just because I gave you a clock doesn’t an I’m wishing you dead. I’m not that filial, don’t overthink it!"
Bai Xiongan: "..."
Everyone present: "..."
The atmosphere beca increasingly awkward and nuanced, when a guest nearby stepped in to diate.
"Brother Bai, why get angry? Isn’t your niece fresh from overseas? People abroad don’t concern themselves with so many taboos. Just consider it ignorance and move on!"
"Yes, yes, young folks, they’re thoughtless..."
"Co, co, Brother Bai, don’t be mad. Check out the gift I brought you, this snuff bottle, it’s an antique, I’ve treasured it for ages and it’s a special gift to you..."
"Director Bai, my Jade Guanyin statue is the finest thing I could give."
"Director Bai, my gift isn’t bad either, I’m giving a masterpiece, a rare calligraphy and painting."
All of a sudden, the guests began to boast about their own gifts.
Bai Xiongan looked at those expensive gifts, feeling quite pleased.
"Huh, is this Mr. Ji’s gift? But Mr. Ji went upstairs to rest. Am I the only one curious about what Mr. Ji brought?"
"I’m curious too, let’s take a look. After all, most of the gifts have been unwrapped now."
"Isn’t that inappropriate? We should at least get Mr. Ji’s permission!"
"Are you crazy? This is Mr. Ji’s gift to Director Bai. So long as Director Bai agrees, it’s fine."
Then, Bai Xiongan said grandly, "Open it. Honestly, I’m also really curious about what Hanyu, that kid, has given . I’ll open this gift myself!"
