Butler Liu was stunned, “… Okay, then do I pick a random card? Or do you have a specific card in mind?”

Lu Wanggui said, “Just take a random card.”

Although it was a whim, he was a man of his words. Since he had promised to give the gift money to Xiang Xiaoyuan, he should do it. Moreover, if he hadn’t misunderstood Xiang Xiaoyuan’s intentions yesterday, he wouldn’t have caused her shop to suffer losses.

Lu Wanggui found it funny when he thought of Xiang Xiaoyuan putting her hands together and praying that the items wouldn’t break.

This card could be used to compensate for her losses.

At 8 o’clock in the morning, Lu Wanggui went to the office on time.

Xiang Xiaoyuan slept until 10 o’clock in the morning. In the past, she would stay in bed for a while longer, but she was thinking about the gift money. She quickly got out of bed, washed up, and went downstairs to look around for Butler Liu.

Perhaps her eyes were too anxious, so Nanny Zhang came out from the kitchen, wiping her hands. “Madam, Butler Liu is tidying up Master’s study. If you need something, you could go up and look for him.”

Xiang Xiaoyuan waved her hand in embarrassment. “It’s fine, it’s fine.”

Although she said that, her legs could not help but walk towards the study. Just as she walked to the door of the study, she bumped into Butler Liu coming out from inside. Xiang Xiaoyuan could not directly ask about the gift money, so she asked in a roundabout manner, “Where is Wang Gui? Has he gone to work? I don’t even know when he got up.”

Butler Liu had a kind look on his face. “Master is used to waking up early, so Madam doesn’t have to force herself to adapt to Madam’s biological clock.”

“Yes, yes.”

Xiang Xiaoyuan was usually good at chatting, but when it came to asking for money, she realized that she became tongue-tied. Fortunately, Butler Liu was considerate and took the initiative to mention it, “Oh right, Madam, this is the gift money received on the wedding day. Take it, the password is…”

He reported a string of numbers, which Xiang Xiaoyuan felt a little familiar with after listening to it. She knew that it was Lu Bei’s birthday after thinking about it.

She promised that she would firmly engrave these few numbers in her heart and never forget them.

When Xiang Xiaoyuan received the bank card, her fingers were trembling. She pressed down on her racing heart and nodded, “Okay, I’ll remember it!”

After receiving the bank card, Xiang Xiaoyuan did not even eat breakfast. She hurriedly took the desserts made by a few dessert chefs to satisfy her hunger and prepared to go out.

Ever since she drove Lu Wanggui’s car, Xiang Xiaoyuan did not plan to take the driver’s car. She went to the garage and picked a relatively cheap Porsche. With the steering wheel in her hand, she finally felt the benefits of being the wife of a wealthy man.

When she thought of the bank card with the gift money, Xiang Xiaoyuan couldn’t help but be excited. How much did rich people get as gifts? When her former colleagues got married, they said that every place had its customs, and the amount of gifts was also very different. But one thing was certain, newlyweds could make a fortune from gifts.

An ordinary newlyweds could be like this, not to mention a big shot like Lu Wanggui. The big shot who interacted with other big shots who didn’t lack money. Everytime they gave money… Well, it would be a lot of money.

As for the exact amount, Xiang Xiaoyuan could not imagine it.

Xiang Xiaoyuan excitedly went to the ATM and inserted her bank card into it. After inputting the password, she nervously waited for [ Check balance ].

[ Balance: 430,000,000.00]

Xiang Xiaoyuan counted the zeros. After counting twice to make sure that she did not count wrong, she let out a sigh of either excitement or disappointment.

She felt that she was floating.

Before she transmigrated into the novel, she had less than 500,000 yuan in savings. But now, with the seven-figure gift money in front of her, not only did she not feel that she was rich, she even felt that this money was too little.

However, she quickly adjusted her state of mind. This was 4.3 million yuan!

In her impression, the wedding of the original owner and Lu Wanggui was very simple. They only informed some of their relatives and friends, and there were not many guests. Yet, they were still able to receive more than 4 million yuan in gift money. They were definitely big shots!

The excitement seemed to be delayed for a second. Xiang Xiaoyuan’s eyes shone as she looked at the bank balance. Four million and three hundred thousand yuan was all hers! In addition to the money that she had earned previously, she was now a rich woman with five million yuan!

Xiang Xiaoyuan’s footsteps fluttered as she pushed open the door. In order to calm her excited brain down quickly, she even went to a nearby dessert shop to buy a serving of ice cream. The cold made her squint her eyes instantly, and her excited mind gradually calmed down.

Although she was very rich now, when she thought about it carefully, most of the money was given to her by Lu Wanggui. If he wanted to take it back one day, she didn’t even have the ability to stop him.

This might be the tragedy of being the wife of a wealthy family. She seemed to be living a rich life and spending freely, but it was like sitting on a swing on a cliff. Although it was exciting, if she wasn’t careful, she would be smashed into pieces.

Her future was in Lu Wanggui’s hands. If he was in a good mood, he would give her a card and let her buy as much as she wanted. If he was in a bad mood, he could take back all her privileges and let her fall from the clouds..
