Chapter 624: Sleight Of Hands

Bai Jingrou was very intelligent and almost immediately understood the situation. She intentionally dropped the red packets she had taken. “Eh? Cousin-in-law, your red packets fell.”

She then bent down and considerately picked them up, handing them over with a smile. “These are from the Bai family’s elders. Keep them with you carefully.”

Fang Xinxin accepted them calmly. She watched Bai Chenxi thoughtfully and realised that this bastard had reminded Bai Jingrou to cease her actions.

Furthermore, he had done so seamlessly, leaving her with no way to become upset.

She understood that the Bai siblings weren’t easy to deal with. Nonetheless, she had plenty of time to handle them.

Xinxin opened the red packets on the spot unhappily. As expected, each contained a cheque worth six million dollars.

The cheques were signed by the different elders and it was clear which belonged to whom.

Fang Xinxin then took out the red packets which Bai Jingrou had stuffed into her pockets.

She opened them. “You secretly gave me red packets? You even gave me three at a go. There’s twenty dollars in each one of them. Those who don’t know may think you were trying to replace my red packets with these ones worth sixty dollars.”

Bai Jingrou’s smile stiffened. How could she possibly admit to it? “Miss Fang, you’ve misunderstood me. I only wished to give you some red packet because it’s your first time visiting our family. It’s an expression of my sincerity.”

“Misunderstood?” Fang Xinxin harrumphed coldly. “Why would you give me three red packets then?”

“Yes…” Bai Chenxi naturally spoke up for his sister. “It’s like this. One of the red packets is from my sister, and the other two are from my mother and I. We asked her to hand them to you all at once.”

“Yes, yes.” Bai Jingrou rushed to agree with her brother. “I was worried you wouldn’t accept it, so I placed them in your pocket secretly.”

“Not bad, sixty dollars.” Fang Xinxin directly threw the money at Bai Chenxi’s face. “I won’t accept such a ‘large’ sum. Keep it for yourself.”

Bai Chenxi was hit directly in the face and his expression immediately turned poor.

“Is Miss Fang complaining that it’s too little?” A hint of mocking flashed past Bai Jingrou’s eyes. “Sincerity is more important than the gift itself. I didn’t expect my future cousin-in-law to be such a superficial person.”

“Hahaha.” Fang Xinxin laughed. “Bai Jingrou, don’t act as if you’re on a higher moral standing.” She narrowed her eyes lightly. “Are you expressing your sincerity through a light gift? You know better than anyone else that you were trying to replace my money with a mere sixty dollars. Do you think I would accept this excuse of yours? You’re too shameless!”

Bai Jingrou’s complexion turned pale. She explained in frustration. “I didn’t touch your red packets. They fell when I tried to give you mine…”

“When you were committing a crime, your brother, Bai Chenxi, noticed Butler Bai Mingde watching us and made you stop.” Fang Xinxin did not waste her breath. “Butler Bai will report this incident to Grandfather. Who knows what sort of conclusion he will come to?” action

Bai Jingrou’s face became as white as a sheet of paper.

Fang Xinxin had nearly managed to show Bai Jingrou the consequences. If only she had truly managed to take the cheques.

She was similarly angry that Bai Chenxi had interfered.

Xinxin kept her red packets in her bag and left in anger while Bai Chenxi and Bai Jingrou pretended to be strolling in the yard.

Jingrou felt fearful. “Brother, thankfully you noticed Butler Bai. Otherwise, I would be doomed.”
