Chapter 1018: Proposal!
Chapter 1018: Proposal!
Mu Yan glanced at Qiu Shuyun. This second aunt really never stops, no matter the occasion.At the same time, she also felt a bit worried.
Jiang Wenhao is the eldest legitimate grandson of the Jiang Family, held in high regard from a young age. It was because of his health issues that Jiang Jingheng later surpassed him.
Nowadays, Jiang Jingheng outshines this brother in everything. Outsiders only know him, but not Jiang Wenhao.
If Liu Xiangqing feels discontent because of this and argues with Jiang Wenhao, it would damage the brotherly relationship between Jiang Wenhao and Jiang Jingheng.
"Second aunt is right. My wedding dress definitely won’t be designed by just any ordinary designer. As for buying rare diamonds, that depends on fate. With the wedding approaching, I can’t wait. Besides, I’m not like Nuannuan, silly enough to use my husband’s money to buy happiness for myself. However, any woman would be happy to receive such beautiful diamonds, wouldn’t they?" Liu Xiangqing said, looking at Mu Yan.
Mu Yan smiled a bit embarrassedly, without saying anything.
Liu Xiangqing continued, "But second aunt, you value appearance the most. Yu Tai doesn’t have a partner yet, right? You can start preparing in advance—take your time with the wedding dress, but you can start preparing rare gems early."
Qiu Shuyun’s face looked a bit unpleasant. This niece-in-law usually seems straightforward. Who knew one sentence from her could be so stifling.
Her intention was to find some discomfort for her, but instead, she ended up uncomfortable herself.
Jiang Zhengting and Jiang Zhengfang, the two sisters, didn’t join the conversation. They were afraid Liu Xiangqing might suggest they prepare the same way for their sons.
Their husbands’ families are not as wealthy as the Jiang Family. They’d have to be crazy to buy such expensive diamonds for their daughters-in-law.
Thinking this, they looked at Mu Yan with somewhat strange eyes, as if she were a femme fatale causing discord.
Suddenly, Liu Xiangqing pulled Mu Yan up, "Second uncle, two aunts, sit tight. We’re going to see what Wenhao and the others are doing."
"Go ahead," Jiang Zhengting nodded.
Once they left the living room, the breath of frustration Mu Yan had been holding in finally dissipated.
Liu Xiangqing looked at her and said with a smile, "Do you find them rather pointless?"
Mu Yan nodded, "Their words go in circles, full of intrigue. It’s exhausting just to talk to them."
"You only come back at most once a week; what’s tiring about that?" Liu Xiangqing laughed, "Actually, the two aunts don’t have much malice, just probably jealousy."
"Hmm?" Mu Yan looked at her, puzzled.
Liu Xiangqing laughed and said, "It’s probably the mindset of ’why does she have it and not me?’ After all, your family’s Jingheng was so generous this time, nearly 800 million, all worn on your hand. When you look at others, they seem glamorous, but what do they really have?"
Mu Yan thought about it and found it made a lot of sense.
Suddenly, Liu Xiangqing asked, "By the way, why did Jingheng suddenly buy so many diamonds? Could it be because the ring he gave you when he proposed was too perfunctory?"
Mu Yan smiled a little, "I thought it was fine."
In fact, he hadn’t proposed to her, let alone given a ring.
Liu Xiangqing laughed, "No matter what, his heart was in the right place. Other men wouldn’t bother since they already got what they wanted."
Mu Yan felt that what she said made a lot of sense, and the little bit of disappointment in her heart disappeared instantly.
Seeing Mu Yan and Liu Xiangqing walk over, Jiang Jingheng looked at Mu Yan and asked, "What were you just talking about?"
Liu Xiangqing preemptively answered, "We were talking about how you proposed to Mu Yan."
A flicker of surprise passed through Jiang Jingheng’s light brown eyes. He glanced at Mu Yan and said in a calm voice, "Is that so?"
Mu Yan felt a bit uncomfortable and looked elsewhere, catching a glimpse of someone coming down the stairs. Looking closely, it was a woman who seemed somewhat familiar.
