Chapter 231 Inviting her shopping, he had ulterior motives.
Chu Miao was sorting medicinal herbs in her room. With so many herbs, she could properly refine a pill.
Wen Li walked in at that moment: "Miaomiao, Miss Wen asked me to go shopping. Do you want to come along?"
Wen Minhui has been visiting Wen Li these past few days. She is very eloquent, unlike the straightforward Grandpa Lu and the others. She is so good at talking that it is impossible for anyone to refuse her.
In addition, since Wen Minhui is not a biological father or brother like Grandpa Lu, it seems easier for Wen Li to accept her than it would be for her to accept Grandpa Lu and the others.
"You want to go shopping?" Chu Miao raised an eyebrow, then smiled a few seconds later: "Sure, I'll go with you."
She wanted to see what kind of trouble Wen Minhui was up to.
Moreover, since Man Man-wai was treating her to shopping, she naturally had to treat her to a big meal, as she still had a lot of things to buy.
Wen Li was overjoyed to see that Chu Miao had agreed, and sent a text message to Wen Minhui. Wen Minhui's expression turned cold when she saw that she was going.
But when she saw Grandpa Lu and the others walking in, she put on a smile again: "Dad, brother, you're back. I'm going shopping with Jiaojiao later, I'll go upstairs to get ready first."
Upon hearing this, Grandpa Lu and the others' eyes lit up, and they hurriedly asked, "You're going shopping with Jiaojiao?"
Wen Minhui nodded: "Yes, it's been thirty years since we sisters last met. We have so much to say to each other. Even though we've been apart for thirty years, Jiaojiao and I are still as close as ever. We get along so well and have become inseparable sisters again."
Grandpa Lu was very pleased to hear this.
What they want most is family harmony. As long as Wen Minhui and Lu Jiao get along, they are happy.
Grandpa Lu's gaze softened as he looked at Wen Minhui: "Alright, you two go shopping. Do you have enough money? We'll transfer some more to you."
Grandpa Lu transferred over 100,000 yuan to Wen Minhui, and Lu's three sons each transferred tens of thousands of yuan to Wen Minhui. Lu Sili, who was in the entertainment industry and was the richest, transferred 200,000 yuan directly.
Wen Minhui knew that the money was not for her, but for Lu Jiao.
They gave her so much money because she went shopping with Lu Jiao.
If she were shopping alone, they probably wouldn't even ask her.
Wen Minhui suppressed her resentment and smiled, "Then thank you, Dad and brother. I won't stand on ceremony, I'll accept it all and go buy some nice things for Jiaojiao."
Wen Minhui also took Lu Wanwan with her. Lu Wanwan didn't want to go, but Wen Minhui forced her to go.
She took Wen Li and the others to the most luxurious shopping mall in the entire capital. Only wealthy people, powerful and influential, with high social status could shop at this mall.
To enter this shopping mall, you need a membership card. Small families like Wen Li's, who grew up in such a small area, would never be able to get in.
"My mother certainly broadened your horizons, didn't she?" Lu Wanwan said sarcastically. "If my mother hadn't brought you here, with your status, you probably would never have been able to come here in your entire lives, right?"
Chu Miao chuckled, "That's true. If it weren't for my mother bringing Miss Wen out of the orphanage, she might still be an orphan now, marrying some working-class man, and she probably would never have had the chance to come into contact with such a high-class place in her entire life."
Lu Wanwan's face immediately darkened.
"Oh, Minhui, are you shopping here?" Suddenly a voice rang out, and a wealthy woman walked over. She greeted Wen Minhui warmly, but frowned when she saw Wen Li: "Isn't this Mrs. Chu, the woman who caused the hotel fire and almost killed hundreds of people?"
