Chapter 261 Thanks
"She didn't kill anyone."

Hearing Jiang Moli's words, Lu Tingting subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

She knew it! How could Jiang Qing have the guts to kill someone? Those old classmates were just spreading rumors.

Just as he was muttering to himself, he heard Jiang Moli say again, "She was guilty of attempted murder, and there is a big difference in sentencing between the two."

Lu Tingting's breath hitched, her eyes wide as saucers: "She...she really killed someone?"

Seeing her startled expression, Jiang Moli couldn't help but tease, "Hey, my dear niece, you really should take something to thank Wei Qing properly."

Lu Tingting was puzzled: "What should I thank her for?"

"You've lived in the same room with her for so long, and she hasn't killed you."

"..."

An Hui was horrified and stopped the two from talking about it anymore. "Alright, stop talking. Tingting, have you eaten? There's still some chicken soup on the stove. Go get some if you want."

Upon hearing that there was chicken soup, Lu Tingting got up and ran into the kitchen.

A moment later, he came out carrying a large bowl of chicken soup, with a plump chicken wing soaking in it.

Seeing Lu Tingting happily munching on a chicken wing, Jiang Moli suddenly said, "I dreamt about you last night."

Lu Tingting rolled her eyes at her and continued eating her chicken wing.

"I dreamt that you were swimming in boiling water and you were perfectly fine. I was completely stunned. I asked you how you did it, and guess what you said?"

Lu Tingting sucked on the wing bone without making a sound.

Lu Dezhao, however, couldn't resist his curiosity, "What did Tingting answer?"

Jiang Moli suppressed a laugh and said, "She said she's a boiling thing."

Lu Dezhao was taken aback for a moment, then realized what he meant and burst into laughter.

An Hui and Ma Hongmei couldn't help but laugh.

"You're the one who's useless!"

Lu Tingting was so angry that she threw a bone at Jiang Moli, but Jiang Moli nimbly dodged it.

She was so angry that she called for help, "Grandma, look at her!"

An Hui glanced at Jiang Moli and said, "I've already seen it."

Seeing that An Hui wasn't helping her, Lu Tingting decided to take matters into her own hands, rolling up her sleeves and ready to fight Jiang Moli.

Jiang Moli naturally wouldn't sit idly by and wait to die. She grabbed a cushion and threw it over, taking the opportunity to go around to the back of the single sofa where Lu Dezhao was sitting.

Lu Tingting threw the cushion back at her, but accidentally hit Lu Dezhao in the face.

"Ouch!"

Jiang Moli fanned the flames: "Ha, you're dead for beating an old man!"

Lu Dezhao: “…”

He's not that old, is he?

Lu Tingting said angrily, "It's all your fault! You insulted me first! Grandpa, beat her up!"

An Hui got up, took down the feather duster from the wall, and banged on the coffee table: "Sit down properly, everyone. If anyone causes trouble again, I'll beat them both up!"

Jiang Moli raised her hands in surrender: "Okay, I'll stop making a fuss."

Lu Tingting snorted and sat back on the sofa to continue drinking her soup.

Seeing that the two had behaved themselves, An Hui hung the feather duster back on the wall.

After finishing her chicken soup, Lu Tingting wiped her mouth and prepared to go home.

Jiang Moli called out to her, "Come to my room, I have something for you."

"I do not want!"

Jiang Moli stepped forward and pulled her, "I'm not lying to you, I really have something for you."

Lu Tingting went to Jiang Moli's room with some hesitation.

An Hui was worried about leaving the aunt and nephew in the same room, so she followed them in.

"Here, this is for you."

Upon entering the room, Jiang Moli took a heavy oil paper package from the wardrobe and tossed it into Lu Tingting's arms.

"What is it? It's all so mysterious."

Lu Tingting suspiciously placed the oil paper package on the table, opening it while glancing at her.

Jiang Moli sat on the edge of the bed. "Here's a gift for you." "You're so kind..."

Looking at the contents of the oil paper package, Lu Tingting's unfinished words stuck in her throat.

"What is it?"

An Hui walked over to her granddaughter, puzzled. She was taken aback when she saw what was inside the oil paper, but then smiled and picked it up.

"It's a coat, Jasmine. When did you buy it?"

Ma Hongmei smiled and leaned closer to take a look, "Oh, it's cashmere, it's not cheap."

Lu Tingting felt like she was dreaming.

That damn woman really did give her something—a cashmere coat!
Even the style and color are what she likes!

An Hui and Ma Hongmei helped Lu Tingting put on her coat, praising her incessantly.

"nice."

"The color suits Tingting too; this dress is a really good choice."

Lu Tingting has a yellowish skin tone, so Jiang Moli specially chose sky blue, which makes her look younger and brightens her complexion.

Jiang Moli walked over to Lu Tingting and looked at Lu Tingting in the dressing mirror: "How is it? Do you like this outfit?"

I don't just like it, I absolutely love it!

She looked at Jiang Moli suspiciously: "Why are you giving me clothes for no reason? What are you trying to do?"

Jiang Moli was amused by her wary look and said, "This isn't without reason. It's a thank you gift for recommending 'Chasing Dreams' to Lin Jianfeng on my behalf. Thank you, silly girl~"

After saying that, he casually pinched Lu Tingting's cheek, "You won't have to get drunk and cry envying others for having beautiful coats anymore."

It's packed with collagen, and the soft, bouncy texture is really nice.

Although Lu Tingting believed she had helped Jiang Moli, she didn't expect Jiang Moli to appreciate it.

Jiang Moli not only carefully prepared a thank-you gift for her, but also thanked her solemnly, giving her what she wanted most.

At that moment, she felt recognized and respected.

An Hui knew that Jiang Moli and Lin Jianfeng were collaborating on "Chasing Dreams," but she didn't know that it was Lu Tingting who recommended "Chasing Dreams" to Lin Jianfeng.

He couldn't help but praise his granddaughter: "You did a good job. Family members should help each other so that outsiders won't laugh at us."

Wearing her favorite cashmere coat and basking in her grandmother's praise, Lu Tingting ran home excitedly.

As soon as she entered, Lu Nana eagerly crowded around her, "Sister, you're wearing new clothes? They look so good! Where did you get them?"

Lu Tingting slapped away Lu Nana's groping hand: "Don't touch me, you'll get me dirty."

Fann Wong glanced at the cashmere coat she was wearing. "Did your grandma buy this coat?"

Lu Nana immediately started making a scene: "Grandma is biased, she didn't buy me anything!"

Lu Haoyu joined in the fun, saying, "Me neither!"

Lu Tingting rolled her eyes at the brother and sister, "Grandma didn't buy it."

"Who bought that? This dress doesn't look cheap. Sis, you're not secretly dating, are you? Did your husband buy it for you?"

Lu Tingting spat at Lu Nana: "Stop talking nonsense, Jiang Moli bought it for me."

This answer shocked the family even more than Lu Tingting's secret relationship.

"Why would my aunt buy you clothes out of the blue? She never buys me any." Lu Nana was almost crying with envy.

She really wants such a beautiful coat!
"I did her a favor, and she gave me a gift as a thank you."

Fann Wong pinched the fabric of the coat and asked in bewilderment, "What did you do to help her that made her buy you such an expensive coat?"

Looking at the coat she was wearing, Lu Tingting was so happy she wanted to spin around on the spot.

"Is this dress very expensive?"

Fan Wenfang said, “Our unit’s Director Wu wore a similar Shanghai-made garment a few days ago, which cost over 200 yuan. I think yours is even better than Director Wu’s; it must be from Hong Kong.”

Lu Tingting was stunned.

She had good taste and guessed that the coat wouldn't be cheap, but she didn't expect it to be this expensive.

She's never had such expensive clothes before, not even her own mother.

That damn woman, and she's surprisingly generous.
