So that’s how it is...
Mu Yiliang’s doubts were finally resolved.
No wonder she’d never heard her grandfather ntion any friendship with Old Sir Yan; it turns out Old Sir Yan was the one who rembered the kindness of her grandfather... Mu Yiliang dared to bet that her grandfather never considered Old Sir Yan’s kindness at all.
Everyone was surprised to learn that Old Mr. Mu Baoyun had shown such kindness to Old Sir Yan! Moreover, it was a life-saving grace...
Then, Old Sir Yan’s so-called gesture was bound to be grand! Everyone was excited once again.
After finishing his speech, Old Sir Yan gestured behind him, and soone imdiately turned and left.
Mu Yiliang was also curious and couldn’t help but glance at Yan Sijue, but he frowned slightly, evidently unsure of what the Old Sir was planning.
Shortly, the person who had left returned, respectfully holding a box in his hands.
Mu Yiliang noticed that Yan Feiyu, standing not far behind the Old Sir, was brimming with joy!
Does the item in this box have so special significance? While Mu Yiliang was guessing, the Old Sir had already taken the box and opened the lid.
Lying inside the box was an erald jewelry set!
"This set of jewelry was Empress Dowager Cixi’s favorite during her lifeti," the Old Sir said nostalgically. "Although today this set may not be more valuable than other antiques, and treasures like it may be easily available to all present, this set holds a different aning for our Yan Family. It’s no exaggeration to call it an ancestral treasure. After my late wife passed away, this set lost its owner."
The Old Sir’s words caused an imdiate sensation!
The value of an ancestral treasure isn’t necessarily in its financial worth! Rather, it’s about authority and symbolism!
Mu Yiliang was also shocked...
Could it be? An ancestral treasure... It’s not ant for her, right? Please, no...
"Yiliang, today I am passing this jewelry set to you," the Old Sir solemnly announced.
Mu Yiliang was about to cry.
Was this a joke? Such an ancestral treasure is traditionally only for the family’s matriarch! If she takes this set, getting a divorce from Yan Sijue won’t be as easy as she thought!
Moreover, if the Old Sir passes this set to her, wouldn’t it imply that Yan Sijue is the future heir to the Yan family estate? Although Old Sir Yan might not an this, others will surely think so!
For Yan Sijue, who doesn’t have a stable foundation, being thrust into the spotlight might not be a good thing. Thus, there was rare darkness on Yan Sijue’s face. After today, the couple was bound to beco the Yan Family’s target! No matter how fiercely Yan Yaoting and Yan Yaohun had been fighting each other before today, after today, they would unite to challenge Yan Sijue!
Was the Old Sir supporting Yan Sijue, or harming him...
Mu Yiliang lanted in her heart.
Yet in front of everyone, there was absolutely no way Mu Yiliang could refuse this symbolic jewelry!
So she could only subtly express her fear.
"Old Sir, this jewelry set is too valuable, I’m afraid I can’t bear the responsibility..."
She truly couldn’t handle it!
But the Old Sir looked at her affectionately and said, "If I say you can bear it, then you can! You will certainly beco a good daughter-in-law for the Yan family! Take it! If Sijue dares to bully you, you just tell !"
Mu Yiliang had no choice but to accept the jewelry box with trepidation: "Thank you, Grandpa, I won’t let you down..."
