Shi i tilted her head, carefully opened the box, and said, "Uncle said this is as cute as Shi i, Grandma will definitely like it!"
When opened, it was a delicate and luxurious ruby bracelet.
The design was simple yet innovative, both grand and rustic, looking extrely luxurious yet with clean lines.
Old Lady Shi’s eyes were imdiately attracted, shining brightly.
Compared to jade, Old Lady Shi preferred sothing a bit more fashionable.
Especially various gemstones and diamonds, sparkling ornants were indeed Old Lady Shi’s absolute favorite.
In Tang Wu’s words from years ago, it was about having a perpetual eighteen-year-old girl’s heart.
"Wow, it’s so beautiful!" soone exclaid.
"So pretty!"
Shi i also smiled and said, "Does Grandma like it?"
Of course, Old Lady Shi liked it!
But upon hearing Shi i’s words, she still purposefully pouted and said, "Speak properly, be normal."
Shi i smiled even more happily, tilting her head and saying, "Grandma seems to really like it, shall Shi i help you put it on?"
Old Lady Shi looked disgusted, "You little girl, so clumsy, don’t break it again."
Her words, though joking, subtly shifted the bla for a recently broken glass onto Shi i, discreetly clearing Bai Yuejie from any fault.
Shi i pretended not to understand and shook her head, "No, no," she said as she took out the bracelet, "Shi i is very careful!"
The luxurious and beautiful bracelet, under the banquet hall’s crystal lights, shone even more dazzlingly.
Shi i took Grandma Shi’s hand, her expression focused. Though her movents were not exactly graceful, being sowhat clumsy, but her earnest, genuine deanor lted people’s hearts.
"So cute."
"She is very beautiful, it’s just a pity..."
"Mr. Shi likes it, and that’s what matters. Look, since he ca in, besides Old Lady Shi and her, has he looked at anyone else?"
He didn’t even glance at Bai Yuejie.
It’s clear who holds a position in his heart.
This Bai Yuejie, although nice, is ultimately not fated with the Shi Family.
Whether it was three years ago or three years later.
Finally, Shi i managed to put it on for Grandma Shi, whose round eyes, like black grapes, shone even brighter. "Wow, Grandma looks so beautiful, just like a little princess!"
Her words, in a tender and childish tone, carried Shi i’s unique childishness.
Grandma Shi’s eyes curved in a smile, yet she couldn’t help but scold her lightly, waving her hand, "I’m too old, not so little princess."
Shi i shook her head, tilting her head, "No matter how old a princess is, a princess is still a princess. So people can’t beco princesses because they are simply not born to be one, but Grandma is a true princess!"
Such words, if spoken by any adult, would be re flattery and empty complints.
Yet coming from Shi i’s mouth, they imdiately garnered echoes of praise from many.
Grandma Shi was coaxed into blooming joy, her heart bursting with happiness, "You’re getting better at speaking."
Shi i hopped over to Ling Yan, hugged his arm, and said, "What I said is true, isn’t it, darling? Do you agree?"
Bai Yuejie watched their intertwined arms, her heart ached dully.
She didn’t deserve to stand beside him!
Push her away, push her away!
But Ling Yan, the center of everyone’s attention, just slightly lowered his head to look at her, his eyes smiling lightly, and he nodded gently, "Yes."
A lump ford in Bai Yuejie’s throat, her eyes suddenly heated, her fingertips almost digging into her flesh.
Ling Yan never strayed within three steps of her, whether it was three years ago or three years later, he always consciously maintained his distance from her.
What right did this fool have?
