Chapter 160: Chapter 160 Mother-in-law and Bestie
“Finished eating?” His eyes suddenly brightened, “Do you want to…”
“No!” Su Zixi quickly stopped him from finishing his sentence, “Um, you should go back to sleep. You have work tomorrow… I’m on leave for the next two days, so I’m going to my room to read a book, okay!”
After saying that, she gave him a beaming smile and then quickly ran out of the dining room.
He Jingyao watched her retreating figure and suddenly let out a soft chuckle.
Just one week, he had waited for so long already, could it really make a difference waiting a few more days?
…
The next day.
After breakfast, Su Zixi arrived at the He Family’s old mansion.
Liu Minjun had been standing at the door waiting for her since early on, only relaxing when she confird that Su Zixi was unhard.
“Auntie,” Su Zixi greeted her with a smile.
Liu Minjun quickly grasped her wrist, full of apologies, “Zhixi, I’m so sorry about yesterday. I was so foolish to have been fooled!”
Su Zixi quickly waved her hand, “How could I bla you…”
“It is my fault!” Liu Minjun said emphatically, “They were from a special forces unit, and they wouldn’t dare to ss around. If I had been more firm, they definitely wouldn’t have dared to do anything! But speaking of which, you’re quite courageous, you didn’t even know who they were, did you?”
Su Zixi felt a bit embarrassed.
Liu Minjun, however, showed admiration, “You said that to avoid getting involved, didn’t you? Co here, I bought clothes and shoes for you yesterday but didn’t get you jewelry. I’ve saved a lot over the years, so co and pick so out.”
Su Zixi didn’t even have a chance to object before she was pulled into Liu Minjun’s dressing room, forced to admire her entire collection.
Liu Minjun wore a triumphant expression, “These pieces of jewelry have been collected over the years. Most are custom-designed with diamonds or raw jadeite, I guarantee you won’t find a second one! Look, take whatever you like!”
Su Zixi stared at the cabinet full of dazzling jewelry, her mouth agape… This ti, the image of the He Family’s madam as a wealthy noblewoman thoroughly stunned her.
Liu Minjun, seeing Su Zixi so astonished, was extrely pleased and started to introduce the origins of the jewelry, leaving Su Zixi completely overwheld.
“The quality of the jewelry here is unquestionable, but so styles are a bit old. Fortunately, there are so classic pieces that you young girls can wear too,” Liu Minjun picked out a few pieces for her, “Next ti, I’ll have Jingyao keep an eye out for raw diamond materials, then you can design them any way you like!”
Su Zixi held several jewelry boxes, nodding dazedly… The madam didn’t feel like a mother-in-law to her, but rather… like a girlfriend.
It was as if they were young girls sharing their treasured collections with one another, except what the madam was offering were… indeed treasures.
“It’s more fun to hang out with than with Jingyao, isn’t it?” Liu Minjun said with a smile, “I don’t believe that boy can charm a girl better than I can! What does he know, huh?”
Su Zixi was montarily choked up…
She wanted to say, He Jingyao knew quite a lot…
Moreover, was the madam competing with her own son for affection… No, no, that’s not right, what was she even thinking! Su Zixi quickly shook her head, casting out these strange thoughts from her mind.
Suddenly, a servant hurried to the door, “Madam, the young miss is throwing a tantrum again, please co quickly!”
Liu Minjun’s expression changed, and she imdiately left the jewelry behind to go see what was happening.
