Chapter 252: As Precious as a National Treasure
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The black Rolls Royce drove smoothly.
Qiao Mianmian felt nervous again when they neared the Mo familyâs old house.
She held Mo Yesiâs arm tightly. âShould I have bought some gifts? Itâs my first time going to your house, itâs not a good idea to go empty-handed, right?â
When she said she wanted to buy a gift, Mo Yesi had said it was unnecessary.
But the more she thought about it, the more she felt like it wasnât good to go empty-handed.
Even so, she didnât know what gift she should buy.
People like the Mo family didnât lack anything.
She would be too embarrassed to give ordinary gifts.
But she couldnât afford gifts that would be unique to the Mo family.
âItâs not a bad thing.â
Mo Yesi could feel that she was tense along the way and sighed slightly. âBaby, just relax. Youâre going to my house as a guest, not to war.â
Qiao Mianmianâs mindset seemed fit for a battlefield.
Her whole body was tensed up.
âI already told you that nobody will be hard on you. My parents are very open-minded, so as long as youâre someone I like, theyâll like you as well. Especially my grandma. Thereâs no girl in our family, so now that youâve married into our family, youâll be treated as precious as a national treasure.
âTheyâll be rushing to fancy you, how could they be hard on you?â
âThe Mo family doesnât have girls?â
Qiao Mianmian was a little nervous after hearing him.
âYeah.â Mo Yesi nodded. âMy grandma has two sons, both of whom have boys. She has always wanted a granddaughter. With you in our family, my grandma will definitely adore you.â
âOh right.â
He suddenly remembered something and hesitated a while before telling her in advance, âShen Rou is also there. I just said that our family doesnât have a girl, but the Shen and Mo families are like one. Thus, my mother has always liked Shen Rou and treats her as her daughter.
âThey have a good relationship, so she came to see my Mom the moment she returned to China.
âBaby, Iâm only bringing you back today, so my family isnât familiar with you. Shen Rou has known my family for more than 20 years. So, if you feel like theyâre more enthusiastic to her than to you, I hope you wonât mind.
âJust think of her as my sister.â
Qiao Mianmianâs expression changed at the mention of Shen Rou.
Previously, she didnât know that Shen Rou liked Mo Yesi, and hadnât thought much of her as Mo Yesiâs childhood friend.
But now...
After knowing that this woman liked her husband, she felt like she didnât really want to see Shen Rou.
This wasnât out of jealousy.
Rather, she didnât like the feeling of being regarded as a love rival.
But she couldnât say these words.
After all, Shen Rou and Mo Yesi had met first and had even known each other for more than 20 years.
She couldnât possibly tell them to break off their friendship just because he was now married.
âYes, I understand.â Qiao Mianmian nodded and said obediently, âIâm not that petty, I can understand it.â
...
Another half an hour passed.
As the car drove halfway up the mountain, Qiao Mianmian saw a house some distance away.
In front of the house were two bronze squatting lions.
The carved gate was also bronze.
The majestic sight of the bronze lion sculptures were moving enough at one glance.
The Rolls Royce stopped slowly outside the gate.
The security guard at the door poked his head out, and Mo Yesi lowered down the window. The security guard saw his face and immediately greeted respectfully, âSecond Young Master.â
Then, he opened the bronze gate.
