She didn’t understand why she couldn’t gain Jiang Wanru’s favor, yet Xu Nianhua, who had known her for only half a month, had sohow caught Jiang Wanru’s interest in acknowledging her as a goddaughter?
And it was a serious consideration, indeed.
After the initial shock had passed, Xu Nianhua regained her composure, stood up, and said earnestly, "I’m sorry."
The hopeful light at the bottom of Jiang Wanru’s eyes seed to dim at that very instant.
"Why?" Su Jinrong furrowed his brows, puzzled by Xu Nianhua’s action.
Not just anyone can be the daughter of Su Jinrong.
You must know, if Su Jinrong were to put out the word, that he wanted to acknowledge a goddaughter, there would be countless people wanting to be that person.
Yet now, with such an opportunity before Xu Nianhua, she actually refused.
"Nianhua, why won’t you agree?" Su Xi asked, tugging at Xu Nianhua’s arm, inquisitively.
"Aunt Jiang, I have a dad and mom. Even though they are not my biological parents, they raised , and I love them very much," Xu Nianhua explained, "I also have an elder brother and a second brother, and they cherish a lot."
"My aunt did not ask you to sever relations with your uncle and aunt, though," Su Xi looked at Xu Nianhua, puzzled. She was almost dying of anxiety sitting there. Did she or did she not realize what it ant to acknowledge her aunt as a godmother?
There were so many who wanted to beco a goddaughter to her aunt; such a pie-in-the-sky opportunity wasn’t common at all!
"But I feel that having them is enough for ."
Xu Nianhua, the person concerned, had a clear gaze and was acutely aware of what she was declining. She smiled and said, "Aunt Jiang, I like you very much too, and I’ll co to visit you when I have the ti. Actually, you don’t necessarily have to be a goddaughter, right?"
Xu Nianhua tried to express her thoughts clearly. With Gu Hai and Fang Yue, her biological daughters, she already felt quite overwheld, and she hadn’t thought about acknowledging godparents.
In her lifeti, having her parents’ love was satisfying enough for her; she was not greedy.
"All right," Jiang Wanru looked at her, with clear, decisive eyes that made her appreciate Nianhua even more.
When leaving, Jiang Wanru gave her a bag of things, all ordinary yet exquisite gifts, making it impossible for Xu Nianhua to refuse.
"Nianhua, why, why don’t you want to acknowledge my aunt as your godmother?" Su Xi specifically asked while leaving with Xu Nianhua.
"It’s for the reason I ntioned before."
Xu Nianhua answered casually, thinking if she should bring a gift for Aunt Jiang next ti she visited from ho.
"Ah, Nianhua, you have no idea how many people want to be my aunt’s goddaughter!" Su Xi lanted. Seeing that Nianhua seed indifferent, she couldn’t help but sigh internally. But then again, if Xu Nianhua were like those others with ulterior motives who wanted to be her aunt’s goddaughter, would her aunt have taken a liking to Nianhua in the first place?
The Su Family.
Seeing Jiang Wanru’s spirits were low, Su Jinrong couldn’t help but criticize, "She really doesn’t know what’s good for her."
Jiang Wanru gave him a look and said, "It’s exactly Nianhua’s character that I like. If she had agreed without any hesitation, wouldn’t you have said she had ulterior motives and was vain?"
Su Jinrong touched his nose guiltily. Outside, he was the impressive President Su, but at ho, his wife was the supre authority.
"If Nianhua doesn’t want to, let it be. Perhaps this is fate," Jiang Wanru murmured. In the past, she had refused many people who had wanted to make her their daughter’s godmother, always declining for fear soone would take Xiaoyu’s place.
