Little Apple rubbed her head, feeling wronged. “We’re not from the same world. I see the new world, and you see the old world. No wonder mama always said that you…”
“What does she always say about me?” Nian Junting glanced at her with a dangerous and nervous look.
“Nothing,” Little Apple turned her face away.
“Tell me,” Nian Junting picked Little Apple up. He didn’t care about anything else, but he did care about his wife’s words.
Little Apple was really afraid that Nian Junting would throw her out, so she quickly said, “Mom said that you’re like an old antique.”
“…”
Nian Junting’s face turned blue with anger. How could he be an old antique? He was still handsome. He sneered and said, “Your mom really doesn’t know anything. Let me tell you, she’s too shallow.”
“Okay, I’ll tell my mother what you said,” Little Apple nodded.
Nian Junting: “…”
…
At two o’clock, the car drove into Feng Garden. The Nian family’s old mansion was still a little far away, so Nian Xi came to see her mother first. Another reason was that she had to discuss her marriage with her mother. Nian Qingyun wasn’t a person who knew how to prepare for a wedding, so it was better to look for Mu Rongcheng.
After entering the door, Nian Xi distributed the gifts that she had bought in Beijing to everyone. In Mu Rongcheng’s hands was a new dress that was the newest style.
Mu Rongcheng looked at it and said helplessly, “The gift that you have chosen is as ugly as ever. Can you improve your taste? No wonder you are usually not feminine at all.”
Nian Xi’s happy little face suddenly became gloomy. It was true. She did not receive such treatment in the Jiang family. Mrs. Jiang treated her gift like a treasure and liked them very much. Looking at her mother, she felt harmed by comparison.
“Why are you looking at me?” Mu Rongcheng continued, “I’m telling the truth. Next time, buy me something with a softer color.”
“…”
Nian Xi thought gloomily, “I’ll have to muster up my courage for a long time before I dare to buy it for you, okay?”
Yu Wen rolled her eyes at Mu Rongcheng. “You should be satisfied with Xixi buying it for you. You’re still complaining. This is your daughter’s goodwill.”
Mu Rongcheng quickly said, “I hope that she can dress a little more like a woman.”
“She’s a police officer. Why would she dress like a woman? It’s not like she’s trying to lure the enemy,” Yu Wen said.
“She can wear it when she’s not working.”
“When has she ever rested?” Yu Wen asked.
Mu Rongcheng didn’t say anything. Her daughter was a workaholic.
Nian Xi looked at them with a bitter smile and said, “Mom, actually, this dress was bought by Yuning, and so were the gifts for grandma and grandpa. By the way, he’s back.”
The Yu couple and Mu Rongcheng were both stunned. Nian Xi glanced at Nian Junting, then told them about Jiang Yuning’s undercover work.
The crowd suddenly understood, and felt a wave of admiration for Jiang Yuning. Mu Rongcheng glared at her children, “You’ve been lying to me for the past three years. I’m worried that Nian Xi will never marry. See? I’m so worried that I’ve had a few wrinkles.”
“You…”
“Alright, stop arguing,” Mu Rongze said. “It’s good that he’s fine. However, Xixi, you guys have been separated for so long. Jiang Yuning’s personality will definitely change. Can you guys return to how you were before?”
“To me, he’s still the same Jiang Yuning as before.” Nian Xi smiled. “I like him, and he likes me.”
