In the living room of the Fu Family Mansion, the Fu Family Matriarch, Su Jingping, was entertaining guests.
Seeing Fu Wangning being helped in, Su Jingping hurriedly asked, "Wangning, what happened to you?"
Fu Wangning smiled innocently, "Auntie, I accidentally twisted my ankle while shopping, fortunately, my friend Moxi was nearby."
Su Jingping turned back to look at Jiang Moxi, then smiled and nodded her head, and asked Fu Wangning, "Should we call the family doctor to take a look at you?"
"No need, Auntie. Moxi has just taken to the hospital for a check-up, and the doctor has already prescribed so dicine."
Fu Wangning continued to smile sweetly, perfectly displaying her gentle and obedient beauty.
ntioning Jiang Moxi twice, Su Jingping took a proper look at Jiang Moxi and realized that this girl was extrely beautiful.
Moreover, her beauty wasn’t the kind of obedient and quiet that could withstand pity like Wangning’s.
Her beauty was aggressive, making it easy for others to pale in comparison when standing beside her.
Even Su Jingping, who was used to seeing beauties in social circles, was shocked by that face.
She couldn’t help but turn back to look at Su Yan, who was sitting on the sofa.
She saw Su Yan looking at Jiang Moxi with astonished eyes.
Thus, the smile in Su Jingping’s eyes deepened, and she asked Jiang Moxi, "Such a beautiful lady, how old are you?"
Jiang Moxi looked up at Su Jingping and unusually ekly replied, "21 in nominal age."
Regardless, she and Fu Youhan were already married, so Su Jingping could be considered her mother-in-law.
Su Jingping nodded her head, about to say sothing, when Fu Wangning suddenly laughed, "Auntie, don’t tell you don’t recognize Moxi?"
A hint of surprise flashed across Su Jingping’s well-maintained face, "I know her?"
"She was Yiming’s ex-fiancée..."
Su Jingping was stunned for a mont, then rembered the previously invalid marriage arrangent with the biological daughter of the Jiang Family.
"So it’s you, but I’ve heard them saying before that you look..."
Plain and even ugly, those were the reasons Yiming used to call off the marriage.
But the girl in front of her was far from plain or ugly, making Su Jingping even sowhat disbelieving that this was the girl Yiming referred to.
Jiang Moxi glanced at Fu Wangning with a complex expression, actually hoping her nominal mother-in-law wouldn’t rember this.
But Fu Wangning still wore a face full of innocent smiles, as if everything before was unintentional.
Jiang Moxi could only retract her gaze and explained indifferently, "I had just learned to put on makeup before, and used all the colors I liked on my face, later realizing it didn’t look good, so I stopped wearing makeup."
Su Jingping had heard before that after Yiming broke off the engagent and got together with the Jiang Family’s adopted daughter, this girl did not cry or make a fuss.
She had thought this girl might be sowhat foolish, but eting her today, she realized this girl was not foolish at all.
This calm and composed deanor truly won her heart.
So Su Jingping took Jiang Moxi’s hand, gently patting the back of her hand, "You are a good girl, it is our Yiming who failed to recognize your worth."
A shadow flickered through Fu Wangning’s eyes, fleeting.
She had never intended for Su Jingping to like Jiang Moxi, ntioning Jiang Moxi and Yiming’s past was rely to incite a slight aversion from Su Jingping towards Jiang Moxi.
But now it seems, Jiang Moxi is quite scheming, and has made Su Jingping like her imdiately.
You should know, when she was brought back to the Fu Family by Old Master Fu, it took her half a year to make Su Jingping less opposed to her.
Yet Jiang Moxi just showed her face, and Su Jingping liked her already.
Fu Wangning felt uneasy in her heart.
Su Jingping was already pulling Jiang Moxi to sit on the sofa and had instructed the servants to bring over fruit tea and pastries that young girls like. He also introduced Su Yan to Jiang Moxi.
"This is my nephew, Su Yan, a professor at First University."
Then Su Jingping emphasized: "He is currently single."
Su Yan was a bit embarrassed, his cultured and handso face blushing slightly.
After nodding to Jiang Moxi as a greeting, he said: "Aunt, don’t promote like this, it makes too embarrassed to even greet people."
Su Jingping teased him right away: "I’m just stating facts; are you still embarrassed?"
After teasing Su Yan, Su Jingping also told Jiang Moxi: "Moxi, this is the first ti Su Yan has been so concerned about how I introduce him to a girl!"
Jiang Moxi felt like she had three black lines on her forehead.
This...
Her mother-in-law couldn’t possibly be trying to set her up, could she?
She even had to wonder about Fu Wangning’s motive in bringing her to the Fu Family today.
After all, Fu Wangning had explicitly intended to arrange a blind date between her and Su Yan before.
Even though Fu Wangning was feeling uncomfortable, seeing things developing in the direction she wanted made her smile more openly.
"Moxi, I didn’t know Su Yan was coming over to visit today; and I certainly wouldn’t twist my own ankle just to let you et Su Yan."
Fu Wangning explained brightly and openly, temporarily dispelling Jiang Moxi’s suspicions and drawing a puzzled look from Su Jingping.
So Fu Wangning said to Su Jingping: "Aunt, didn’t you and auntie ntion wanting to find a match for Su Yan? I’ve been in touch with Moxi recently and felt she and Su Yan would be a great match, so I ntioned it to Moxi before."
Fu Wangning looked at Jiang Moxi, "But Moxi is quite shy and didn’t agree, so I didn’t bring it up with you. She might have thought I deliberately brought her in front of Su Yan when you ntioned him."
Fu Wangning’s explanation was flawless.
Su Jingping and Su Yan also accepted Fu Wangning’s reasoning, with Su Jingping pulling Jiang Moxi aside to explain: "Su Yan just ca over temporarily today; Wangning didn’t know about this."
Su Jingping had previously been unsure how to clarify this matter to Jiang Moxi, but with Fu Wangning’s move, she said with a smile: "Wangning just happened to think along the sa lines as ."
"Aunt..." Jiang Moxi imdiately felt like she was on pins and needles, wanting to clarify directly that she had no such interest in Su Yan.
But Su Jingping could tell that Su Yan was interested in Jiang Moxi, the first ti he had reacted this way during her many attempts to matchmake for him.
So Su Jingping said: "Don’t feel pressured, just treat Su Yan as a normal friend."
She didn’t give Jiang Moxi a chance to refuse, and began to prepare dinner, determined to keep Jiang Moxi for the al.
Jiang Moxi had not expected that bringing Fu Wangning back would lead her into such a passive situation and felt sowhat regretful.
Coincidentally at this ti, Fu Youhan also sent her a ssage: "Didn’t you already return to Yan City? Where are you?"
Knowing she was back in Yan City, he had already booked a spot at a private restaurant, wanting to have dinner with her.
Jiang Moxi didn’t know how to explain the current situation to Fu Youhan and simply sneakily took a photo of Su Yan to send to him...
