My CEO Husband Has Some Issues - Chapter 529

Chapter 529: Chapter 529: Won’t Accept Gifts, Want Him to Return Them
Her expression suddenly turned cold, and she frowned, staring at the butler who insisted that she accept the gift. “My relationship with Siyuan is simply that of an ordinary elder and junior. Siyuan is offering it out of kindness, but I cannot accept such an expensive gift from her just because of that. This is a matter of principle in life. We’re both old enough; you should understand what I mean, right?”

She stopped just short of saying outright that Shen Siyuan was not the choice for her daughter-in-law.

She was usually kind to everyone, especially those around her, and rarely put on airs. This rare occasion of seriously reminding the butler made him awkward, and after, he silently took back the box, “I’m sorry, madam.”

Lin Zhiya glanced at him with a hint of helplessness in her eyes, then instructed, “Find some time later to return the item to Siyuan, and tell her I’ve received her thoughts. If she refuses to take it back, then you will have to figure out a way. Anyway, I will not accept this gift. Understood?”

The old butler, having been scolded privately by her, also knew that he had gone too far just now and dared not continue insisting she accept the gift. He bowed his head and said, “I understand, madam, don’t worry.”

“I hope you truly understand!” Lin Zhiya did not wish to say more. After speaking, she ordered him, “Go and prepare the guest room.”

“Alright.”

The old butler quietly went upstairs with Shen Siyuan’s gift, and Lin Zhiya then turned back, her expression regaining its previous warmth and kindness, “Yan, weren’t you going to help me with my waist?”

“I’ve checked the time, and by the time we have some tea and you give me acupuncture, it might be too late. You might as well stay over tonight!”

She had had this idea for a while, which was why she suddenly thought to pull Rong Yan to cook with her in the kitchen earlier.

Cooking is good, it takes a long time when done by hand.

Then they could leisurely have a meal, drink tea, and undergo acupuncture treatment, and that way, time would be dragged out until late into the night.

Lin Zhiya was almost beaming, patting her hand, and even pretended to be upset, “Ah, ever since Shengxiao moved out, I’ve been left alone at home. Except for the occasional company of little Duidui Little Bao, I have no idea what to do at night. Since you’ve made it here today and it’s gotten late, I’m not at ease with you going back. Why not stay and keep me company? Will you do that?”

Her eyes pleaded so earnestly that Rong Yan felt as if someone were clutching her throat, making her unable to utter a no.

She was the type that would repay kindness with kindness, and if someone were good to her, she’d want to return the favor twofold.

Lin Zhiya had helped her out of a tight spot before and had been very kind to Duidui. She also protected her just now, so even if she wanted to refuse, she couldn’t bring herself to do so.

But agreeing would mean… she’d have to stay overnight at the Li Family’s.

This—was completely different from her initial plan of just helping Lin Zhiya with her back!

Seeing the hesitation on her face, Lin Zhiya pressed harder, “Don’t worry, it won’t interfere with your work tomorrow. It’s just staying here for one night, think of it as staying at a hotel. In the morning, I’ll have the driver take you wherever you need to go. Is that alright?”

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

With the matter reaching this stage and facing a request from an elder, Rong Yan, even though she was uncertain, had no choice but to relent, “Then I’ll inconvenience Mrs. Lin tonight.”

Lin Zhiya barely stopped herself from laughing out loud, promptly saying, “It’s no trouble at all, not in the slightest!”
