"Then I’ll wear this set."
The next morning, Cao Xiaoi dressed up carefully and sat in the living room waiting for Shangguan Xi.
As soon as Shangguan Xi ca downstairs, Cao Xiaoi walked over and hugged her arm, "Sister-in-law, you’re up."
Shangguan Xi sized up Cao Xiaoi with a glance and said with a smile, "Xiaoi, you look quite pretty with makeup on."
Cao Xiaoi said, "After all, I’m going to my sister-in-law’s ho. Of course, I have to dress myself up prettily. I can’t afford to embarrass you."
Although Cao Xiaoi doesn’t have a high education, she is very smart. She understands won’s hearts very well and knows how to appeal to their preferences.
During this ti, she had successfully coaxed Shangguan Xi into submission.
Otherwise, how could Shangguan Xi possibly agree to bring her back ho?
However, it’s also because Shangguan Xi is too naive.
If she was a bit smarter, she wouldn’t have been deceived by her.
How could such a simpleton be worthy of Wu Chenjun?
Having said that, Cao Xiaoi continued, "By the way, where’s Brother Chen Jun? Is he still mad at about last ti?"
"No," Shangguan Xi shook her head, "Your Brother Chen Jun isn’t soone who is petty."
"That’s a relief." Cao Xiaoi breathed a sigh of relief, "So when do we leave?"
Shangguan Xi said, "Let’s wait a little longer."
This was the second ti Cao Xiaoi got into Wu Chenjun’s car, and she was confident that one day she would be able to sit in the passenger seat next to Wu Chenjun.
Shangguan Xi won’t be proud for many more days.
Since the mont Cao Xiaoi got into the car, Wu Chenjun’s brows never relaxed.
He really detests Cao Xiaoi.
He always feels that Cao Xiaoi is not from a decent family.
But it seems Shangguan Xi gets along quite well with her, so he could only endure it.
Lately, Shangguan Xi has been unusually sleepy for so reason; she dozed off against the car seat shortly after getting in the car.
Wu Chenjun, with one hand on the steering wheel, reached out with the other hand to touch Shangguan Xi’s head, "Shangguan Xiaosi, are you feeling unwell? Are you cold? Should I turn up the heat?"
"No need." Shangguan Xi yawned, "I’m just a bit sleepy, I’ll be fine after a nap."
Wu Chenjun said with concern, "If you’re feeling unwell, make sure to tell ."
"I know." Shangguan Xi said with a smile, "I’m not a three-year-old child anymore, do you need to remind ?"
Sitting in the back seat, Cao Xiaoi felt incredibly upset watching this scene.
Wu Chenjun was supposed to be hers!
If not for Shangguan Xi, she would have been the one he was fussing over now.
The car soon arrived at Jinghua Village.
Ni Cuihua never expected Shangguan Xi to actually co back to celebrate her birthday and couldn’t stop smiling broadly, "It’s just a birthday, and yet you and Chen Jun made the trip."
"You’re my mom, so of course Chen Jun and I should co back for your birthday!"
Only then did Ni Cuihua notice Cao Xiaoi standing next to Shangguan Xi, "And who is this?"
Shangguan Xi said, "This is Cao Xiaoi, a relative from Brother Chen Jun’s grandmother’s side. Xiaoi, this is my mom."
"Auntie, hello." Cao Xiaoi greeted her politely.
"So it’s a relative from the old lady’s side, please co in, co in."
Zhao Yu ca bouncing out of the house excitedly, "Grandma! We have guests at ho!"
"Duoduo." Shangguan Xi greeted Zhao Yu with a smile.
"Auntie Xiaoxi!" Zhao Yu rushed over and hugged Shangguan Xi tightly.
"Sister Xiaoxi!" Little Ni Yun followed like a little tail, running out after her.
Cao Xiaoi found it a bit strange. Zhao Yu looked about her age, so why would she be Shangguan Xi’s niece?
Could Shangguan Xi’s stepmother really have a forty-year-old daughter?
Shangguan Xi went on to introduce Cao Xiaoi to Zhao Yu and the others.
Inside the house, Grandmother Shangguan, Grandmother Zheng, and Luona, the three old ladies, were playing ’Fight the Landlord’ together.
Cao Xiaoi was a bit surprised.
She knew Shangguan Xi’s family was not simple, but she didn’t expect to see a foreigner in Shangguan Xi’s ho.
Scanning the room and not finding Ni Yang, Shangguan Xi felt sothing was odd, "Mom, why don’t I see Yangyang?"
Ni Cuihua said, "Your Uncle Zhou went to work, and Yangyang went with your Aunt Ni to get Yuanyuan vaccinated for asles."
Getting vaccinated was a hassle, and one person couldn’t handle it alone. Fortunately, Ni Yang understood dicine so she went with Ni Chengui.
Shangguan Xi nodded, "Oh, that’s why I didn’t see Yangyang."
After a while, the sound of a car engine sounded outside again.
"Who is it?" Zhao Yu tiptoed to look out the window, seeing a familiar car, she excitedly said, "It’s my dad! My dad’s here!"
