BXBX NOVEL Chapter 282
“In the future, before you try to snatch someone else’s things, first open your eyes and see if you are qualified to do so.”
Sheng Man’s expression immediately darkened and she opened her mouth but couldn’t find any way to refute.
Ye Zhi turned around and left with a smile.
Sheng Man shot herself in the foot today. When she returned to her car, she immediately scolded her innocent assistant.
Sheng Man thought about the reduction in her living expenses and picked up her mobile phone to call Nie Jiqing to ask more about it. However, she immediately put back her mobile just as she was about to call Nie Jiqing.
She was a little afraid to ask Nie Jiqing about it.
Since the previous incident, Sheng Man was a little scared of Nie Jiqing and she did not dare to discuss this topic on the phone.
It would be better to ask Nie Jiqing face to face after returning home.
When Sheng Man returned to China, she immediately went to Sheng Mansion. Before returning, she specially bought a lot of food to please Nie Jiqing.
Nie Jiqing glanced at the things Sheng Man brought back. She used to be very happy to see Sheng Man bring things for her, but that feeling had reduced a lot.
After chatting for a while, Sheng Man suddenly said in a low voice: “Mom, how come I only received living expenses of a few hundred thousand this month? Never before has it been so little.”
Sheng Man affectionately held Nie Jiqing’s hand as she said so.
Nie Jiqing said lightly: “Are you going to buy luxury goods again?”
Sheng Man smiled: “Mom, I’m a celebrity. What’s wrong with buying some luxury goods? I have to make myself look better.”
Nie Jiqing: “What did you try to buy today?”
Sheng Man: “Bulgari’s jewellery.”
Remembering how she bickered with Ye Zhi over the necklace but got slapped in the face, Sheng Man felt angry.
Sheng Man said angrily: “If she hadn’t taken a fancy to that necklace, I wouldn’t have had to fight with her.”
Nie Jiqing keenly heard the sentence: “Who were you arguing with?”
Sheng Man was about to reply but subconsciously stopped in the middle: “Y…”
She hadn’t forgotten that Nie Jiqing asked her to apologize to Ye Zhi. In case Nie Jiqing knew that she argued with Ye Zhi for jewellery, she would probably get scolded again.
Nie Jiqing did not hear clearly: “Who?”
Sheng Man changed her words: “Someone, you don’t know.”
Sheng Man asked again: “Mom, then my living expenses…”
She was used to spending money lavishly. She would be very uncomfortable if she only received a few hundred thousand a month.
Nie Jiqing calmly said: “From now on, your monthly living expenses will be reduced to several hundred thousand.”
Sheng Man was stunned and she said aggrieved: “Mom, didn’t you always give me millions? Why did you suddenly reduce it?”
When Nie Jiqing saw Sheng Man’s grievances, she immediately surpassed her emotions and said with a frown: “You spend too much money. This habit should be changed.”
Nie Jiqing looked at Sheng Man and said lightly: “A truly outstanding person does not need luxury goods to prove herself.”
Sheng Man wanted to say again: “But…”
Nie Jiqing didn’t want to discuss it further: “That’s it.” One sentence blocked Sheng Man’s subsequent words.
Sheng Man could only agree. She looked at Nie Jiqing’s face with faint anxiety in her heart.
Since when did she and Nie Jiqing begin to have such distance between them?
Ye Zhi was returning from Tokyo today. Gu Ren wanted to know if she had arrived home. As soon as his car drove into the yard, he dialled Ye Zhi’s number.
Just as he opened the door, the familiar mobile phone rang in the living room.
It was obviously Ye Zhi’s mobile phone.
