“Wen Xin, this is the gift I’ve prepared for you; I hope you’ll like it.”

Wei Manqing presented an exquisitely crafted box from which she extracted a jade bracelet of a lush green hue, evidently of great worth and certainly no ordinary piece.

“This jade has been part of my collection for a long time. The moment I first saw you, I felt this bracelet suited you. We didn’t get the chance to get acquainted last time, but now we’re family. Let me put this bracelet on for you.”

Wei Manqing didn’t give Wen Xin the opportunity to decline. She took Wen Xin’s wrist—the one without a watch—and gently massaged it before firmly slipping the bracelet onto Wen Xin’s wrist, admiring it as one would a piece of art.

Wen Xin, momentarily at a loss for words in front of Mu Chengxi’s warm family, could only offer Wei Manqing a gentle smile in return. “Thank you for your gift, Auntie…”

“It’s good that you like it. Your uncle has also prepared a gift for you. Hearing you were going to attend Beijing University, he bought you a house in the best

complex nearby. No matter how nice the dormitory is, it’s not as comfortable

as living in your own home. Jinyan, hand over the keys and the property deed

to Wen Xin.”

Wei Manqing warmly urged Mu Jinyan to quickly give the prepared gift to Wen Xin. Mu Jinyan, looking at Wen Xin, took out the property deed and keys, handing them over to her.

“Wen Xin, I was foolish last time…

“Let’s not bring up past matters. Wen Xin is not the type to hold grudges. Let me see, what kind of house did you buy for us?”

Mu Chengxi stood up and took the property deed and keys from Mu Jinyan’s hand, preventing any further apologies. He knew Wen Xin didn’t want to revisit the past and didn’t want Mu Jinyan to feel awkward. He felt this was the best way to give them both an out.

After inspecting the property, Mu Chengxi lazily stretched and placed the deed on the coffee table in front of Wen Xin.

“I’m going out for a smoke. You all chat.” Seeing Wen Xin and the old madam conversing comfortably, Mu Chengxi, with his phone in hand, left the living room.

Following Mu Chengxi’s departure, Mu Jinyan also stood up and walked out after him. Approaching Mu Chengxi in the corridor, who was lighting up a cigarette, he said, “You haven’t been home in half a year because of that day I failed to protect Wen Xin, wasn’t it?” Mu Jinyan knew Mu Chengxi harbored a grudge about that incident, and he hadn’t expected his attempt at an explanation to be stopped by Mu Chengxi.

Predicting Mu Jinyan would follow him out, Mu Chengxi opened his cigarette pack, offering one to Mu Jinyan with a light smile. “I was indeed angry about that incident, but you’re my father. A son has to consider his father’s feelings. Most importantly, it seems Wen Xin doesn’t want to bring up the past, so there’s really no need for apologies. We’re family now, and you’ll have many chances to protect her. Why dwell on those things?”

Mu Chengxi’s relationship with Mu Jinyan had never been very close, especially after Mu Jinyan left him alone at the Mu family’s house in pursuit of freedom, leading to a distance between them since.

However, all that was in the past. Mu Chengxi didn’t want to hold on to those grudges. He just wanted to give Wen Xin a home where everyone cared for her and was willing to protect her. That was enough for him.

As Mu Chengxi and Mu Jinyan left the living room, Wen Xin took out many small medicine bottles from her backpack. The butler, seeing this, quickly came over with a storage box to take them from her.

“Miss Wen, these are…”

“These are pills I’ve concocted. One a day is sufficient, and they are very beneficial for Grandma’s health, more so than the pills provided by Zhuge Jingming. She doesn’t need to take those anymore.”

The pills were specifically formulated by Wen Xin based on the health report Zhuge Jingming had provided for the old madam and were very useful for her condition.

Old Madam Mu reached out her wrist to Wen Xin, “Xiaoxin, check on Grandma’s health. I don’t ask for much, only to see you and Chengxi’s child be born. That will put my mind at ease.”

The thought of seeing Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi’s child brought a smile to the old madam’s eyes. She imagined their children would be the most beautiful little treasures.

Wen Xin’s hand trembled involuntarily as she felt the old madam’s pulse. At nineteen, wasn’t the idea of having children a bit premature?

After more than ten minutes, Wen Xin tidied the old madam’s sleeves and smiled tenderly at her. “Grandma, rest assured, you are in excellent health. As long as you keep a positive mindset, your wishes will surely come true!”

As Wen Xin mentioned the old madam’s wishes coming true, her ears turned unconsciously red. Mu Chengxi, entering from outside and witnessing this scene, didn’t need to guess that the old madam must have been discussing children with Wen Xin. It seemed that Grandma was truly in a hurry.

“Grandma, Aunt Fu has prepared the meal. Should we go eat now?”

“Yes, yes, let’s eat. We mustn’t let little Wen Xin get hungry. Let’s go have our meal!” The old madam felt her dream of a great-grandchild was one step closer, and her spirits seemed to lift considerably. She got up briskly, holding Wen Xin’s hand, ready to walk out.

“Grandma, let me help you to the dining room. Let Wen Xin and Little Seven put away these valuable items first before we head to the dining room.” Mu Chengxu glanced at the table with the valuable items. She wouldn’t dare touch them; if anything were to break, her entire company couldn’t afford the loss.

“Right, right, Little Yao, you put away the items. Be careful not to damage them.”

“Understood, Grandma. I’ll take them to my courtyard first and then come back for the meal.”

Saying this, Mu Chengxi carefully stored the phoenix crown, cradling it in his arms, and took Wen Xin’s hand, leading her out of the old madam’s courtyard.

Once they reached Mu Chengxi’s courtyard, Wen Xin’s expression darkened, and she squinted at the smiling Mu Chengxi.

“You’re cunning, setting a trap for me to fall into. Aren’t you afraid I’d outright refuse?”

Mu Chengxi placed the box on the table and approached Wen Xin, looking at her earnestly, “Of course, I’m afraid, but I swear I didn’t expect grandma to bring out the bridal gift. I just wanted to bring you back to give you a status.”

Mu Chengxi’s gaze was sincere as he looked at Wen Xin. He understood her temperament well; he wouldn’t dare to do anything that might upset her. Even if he was anxious, he wouldn’t force Wen Xin to do anything against her will.

Wen Xin raised an eyebrow and couldn’t maintain her composed smile any longer. She chuckled lightly, “Alright, it’s true that no one can force me to do what I don’t want to do. Even if they offered me all of Beijing as a bridal gift, if I don’t want to marry, no one can force me..”
