Revenge

Ning Lian caught the hatred in Zhao He's eyes with satisfaction and said timidly, "Then what should we do? Do we still buy it?"

Zhao He replied, "Of course, we are buying it! After buying it, we'll send it to the Fu family. If she doesn't want it, we aren't going to pick her leftovers. She has to understand who she's picking on!"

Ning Lian felt some disdain in her heart. Zhao He was stupid. Not only would the Fu family not feel humiliated if she sent this necklace over, but they would also get a necklace worth 80 million for nothing.

Ning Lian implicitly advised, "Are you sure that's a good idea?"

Zhao He was in a fit of anger and did not listen to any advice. As she called Ning Shi, she said to Ning Lian, "Lianlian, you're too kind. That's why Ning Xiang went overboard. Don't worry. I'm going to stand up for you!"

Ning Lian went speechless.

The call went through and Zhao He said gently, "Hubby, I like a necklace. It's not expensive and only costs 80 million. Can you transfer some money to me?"

Zhao He only had 10 million on her card. All the rest of the money was with Ning Shi. Zhao He had to get Ning Shi's approval if she wanted to buy big-ticket items.

The most expensive thing she had ever bought rarely went over 10 million. Although the Ning family could afford this necklace, with Ning Shi's stinginess, it would probably take some effort.

Zhao He knew what she was doing, but she did not expect Ning Shi to scold her angrily. "80 million? What do you mean it's not expensive? Do you know how much money I earn from working so hard outside? You have so much jewelry at home that you can pick from. Why are you buying new ones? Go home this instant!"

Zhao He was also a little angry from the scolding, but Ning Lian was watching from the side, so she could only brace herself and say, "Hubby, you don't get it. We almost fought with the Ning family because of this necklace. Ning Xiang scolded us for being poor ignorant dogs. She even said that Lianlian can't compare to her in this lifetime. She's going to embarrass our family at the banquet tomorrow."

The sound of things being smashed immediately came from Ning Shi's side.

Zhao He explained the situation clearly and said in a gentle tone, "Hubby, don't be angry. Just think about it. If we don't buy this necklace, she will definitely mention that Lianlian snatched the jewelry she liked at the banquet tomorrow and make herself sound magnanimous by modestly declining it. Do you really want to embarrass yourself?"

Ning Shi calmed down. "I've already transferred the money to you. Take Ning Lian shopping and get everything she needs. I want to make sure nothing goes wrong at the banquet tomorrow!"

Zhao He smiled and said, "Alright then. Take care."

Ning Shi did not reply and hung up.

Ning Lian asked worriedly, "What's wrong? Is Dad in a bad mood?"

Zhao He replied, "Your father seems to have problems with the company recently, so he's been quite worried recently. It's nothing serious. Don't worry."

"What is it?"

Zhao He paused for a moment. "It seems to be related to real estate. I don't know the details." She turned around and said to the salesperson proudly. "I'll take this. Send this necklace to the Fu family. Remember, you must write my daughter and my name on the packaging!"

The salesperson was speechless, but she did as she was told.

Ning Xiang and the others were shopping. When they were tired, they went to a nearby western restaurant to eat.

Seeing that her eldest sister-in-law was unhappy, Ning Xiang smiled and said, "Are you still thinking about what happened just now?"

The eldest sister-in-law was also a straightforward person. "Xiangxiang, our family has never been afraid of anyone. We should have taken the necklace directly in the shop just now. Why should we give in? Who are they? Are they worthy of us giving in?"

Ning Xiang curled her lips into a smile. "I know them well. They're probably going to die of anger now."

Her eldest sister-in-law was stunned. She had clearly given in to them. It made no sense for them to be unhappy.

"What do you mean?"

Ning Xiang rested her chin on her hand and said slowly, "Those two are narrow-minded. They definitely won't thank me. Instead, they think that I'm humiliating them."

The second sister-in-law sneered. "She's right. Before I left, I saw Ning Lian's annoying gaze."

Ning Xiang continued, "Ning Shi doesn't give Zhao He much money. This necklace exceeds their budget, so Zhao He will definitely ask Ning Shi for money."

The eldest sister-in-law's eyes lit up. "I understand. Ning Shi is a stingy person. 80 million is nothing to us, but it's too expensive for Ning Shi. He will definitely scold Zhao He and not pay, right?"

When the western food was served, the eldest sister-in-law smiled as she cut the steak. "She won't be able to buy the necklace and even get a scolding. Isn't that fun?"

Ning Xiang shook her head. "Ning Shi will buy it for her."

"Huh?"

Qiao Yun struck her eldest daughter-in-law gently. "Of all my daughters-in-law, you're the stupidest. Third Daughter-in-Law, what's your take on it."

Jiang Yao smiled at Ning Xiang with admiration in her eyes. "Zhao He is brainless, but she's quite good at manipulating men. She'll definitely buy it, but she won't give it to Ning Lian."

The eldest sister-in-law said in surprise, "Why not?"
