Lu Wenyi was not satisfied with the development of the situation. He originally wanted to say something, but when he saw Chi Ying walk in, he immediately shut his mouth.
In reality, she was more dazzling than in photos and videos. She had a kind of breathtaking beauty. Walking in the crowd, anyone would turn back to take a few more glances. As a man, Lu Wenyi instantly understood his eldest nephew's choice. For such a beauty, it would not be a waste even if he used his entire country to exchange for her.
When Lu Wenzhi saw the sudden change in her third brother's attitude and eyes, she felt a little emotional. Chi Ying's facial features were flawless. Ordinary people would not be able to achieve such a perfect level even if they used a knife. In comparison, it made her seem old and mediocre. She obviously came from a rich and powerful family, but she was inferior by a large margin.
Lu Wenzhi elbowed Lu Wenyi and said, "Third brother, don't forget that it was because of her that the marriage plan between the Lu family and other families fell through. We did not join forces with the strong, so we lost more than a little. "
Lu Wenyi came back to his senses when she bumped into him. He lowered his voice and said, "Since Lu Jingyan has already married Chi Ying, you and I can't change anything. The Lu family is a famous and elite family. If we haggle over every little thing, won't we seem narrow-minded and become a joke to others? "
Lu Wenyi's position was very clear. Lu Wenzhi gritted her teeth in anger and said coldly, "I don't understand why there have been so many men since ancient times. It's obvious that they are all blinded by lust."
Lu Wenyi glanced at her and said, "Because they are more open-minded than women and know how to take the long view."
Lu Wenzhi still wanted to say something, but Lu Wenyi interrupted her and said, "Okay, Wenzhi, let's talk about it later."
Lu Wenzhi quietly looked around. Apart from them, everyone else in the Lu family was as quiet as chickens, so she also kept quiet.
Chi Ying had always been a public figure in her previous life and was used to all kinds of eyes. At this moment, facing the sharp eyes of the elders of the Lu family, she suddenly calmed down. Unlike in his previous life, when he had to face his father and grandfather, he had to be so nervous that he couldn't even raise his head.
Chi Ying held Lu Jingyan's arm without showing any fear. She smiled gently and said, "Hello, Grandpa. Hello, Uncle and Auntie. I'm Chi Ying. This is a little gift I prepared for you."
As she spoke, the butler and the auntie brought the prepared gifts over from the Bentley.
Old Master Lu's eyesight wasn't too good at his advanced age, so he couldn't see Chi Ying's face clearly from a short distance away. He only felt that her voice was as gentle and pleasant as a breeze. He nodded slightly and said, "Hello."
Chi Cheng stood beside Old Master Lu and winked at Chi Ying. His lips moved slightly as he mouthed, "Hello, Mummy."
When the Lu family saw that Old Master Lu was in a good mood, the frozen atmosphere melted slightly and they gathered around.
With Lu Jingyan's advice, Chi Ying catered to their interests accurately this time. The greeting gifts she brought for the elders were all things that they desperately needed or had been looking forward to for a long time, including some rare ancient books and paintings.
The elders were pleased immediately.
"Why are you calling them Uncle and Auntie? Silly child, call them Mom and Dad," Chumu said with a smile. She was over 50 years old, but wrinkles were rare.
Chi Ying recognized Lu Jingyan's parents and didn't hesitate to call out gently, "Dad, Mom."
Lu Wenyuan's eyebrows relaxed and he felt that he couldn't maintain his cold image anymore. Now that he had an adorable grandson and a beautiful granddaughter-in-law out of nowhere, he wanted to return to China.
Lu Wenyuan's brothers and sisters of the same generation laughed. "Mrs. Lu, Chi Ying is calling us Uncle and Auntie, right?"
Chumu smiled and said, "I was too eager to see my daughter-in-law and didn't think it through."
"It's okay, we just mentioned it casually. Don't take it to heart, Mrs. Lu."
Chumu raised her eyebrows slightly. She and Chi Ying had a tacit understanding. Everyone had objected to it just now, but now they were fighting to be Uncle and Auntie. It could be considered as proof that they had accepted her into the family.
The greeting gift Lu Wenzhi received was a limited edition dress from an international brand. Due to the scarcity of the fabric, it had never been available.
Lu Wenzhi opened it and saw the dress that was custom-made according to her measurements. Her heart trembled with joy.
She looked up and realized that Chi Ying's dress was getting more and more familiar.
It turned out that it was a limited edition dress from the same brand and the price was quite shocking. It was one yuan more than the one in her hand and belonged to a series that couldn't be ordered even if one had the money.
She had given up competing after taking a look at the advertisement because she felt that it was too extravagant and would definitely be useless.
As an elder, there was no point in competing with the younger generation. However, if the elder couldn't compare with the younger generation in every aspect, she would definitely feel uncomfortable.
As the daughter of the Lu Corporation, Lu Wenzhi thought about how Chi Ying had effortlessly gotten a dress that she couldn't get even after spending so much effort. Her earlier gratitude instantly vanished into thin air. She said, "Chi Ying, Jingyan bought your gown for you, right? I heard it's a limited edition of three pieces in the world. It's indeed beautiful."
There was a deep meaning in her tone. She was secretly jealous that Chi Ying was trying to climb up the social ladder. On the surface, Chi Ying's dress was all the greeting gifts. Given Chi Ying's abilities, how could she have gotten her hands on those rare and precious gifts that were hard to come by? The wool comes from the sheep's back. It must have been Lu Jingyan's doing.
Chi Ying saw that Lu Wenzhi's eyes were faintly glowing as she stared at her dress. Without a change in her expression, she gently smiled and said, "This is the endorsement I just accepted. I attended the movie meet and greet today, and the person in charge of the brand gave it to me for publicity. Auntie, if you like it, I can help you ask if there's a green channel. Maybe I can even get a discount. "
The dress that Chi Ying was wearing was just a sample. It wasn't made according to her measurements. However, Chi Ying's body proportions were good, so it fit her well.
Lu Wenzhi knew that Chi Ying's value had skyrocketed because of "Green Sun", but she didn't expect that such an international brand would invite her to endorse it. Her expression changed subtly and she said, "It's no trouble."
