"Mom," Mo Jingchen formally addressed his aunt as "Mom."
"Yes," Auntie replied happily.
Mo Jingchen held the jade pendant in his hand, looking at the pattern on it. It seemed somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it before.
"Jingchen, what's wrong? Is there something wrong with this jade pendant?" An's mother noticed that Mo Jingchen was staring at the jade pendant in a daze and was worried that there might be something wrong with it.
"Mom, the pattern on this jade pendant... it looks familiar, but I can't quite remember where I've seen it before!"
"Jingchen, the patterns on the jade pendants are all pretty much the same, so don't be too nervous," Mother An said, relieved. She had thought there was something wrong with the jade pendant.
"Mother An, have you ever thought about finding out about your origins?" the old lady of the Mo family suddenly asked.
"My background? I did think about it when I was young. I went back to the orphanage to ask and also inquired privately, but I still didn't find any clues."
"I used to wonder why my biological parents abandoned me and left me in the orphanage without a care. But now that I'm older, I've come to terms with many things, and I don't want to know anymore," Mother An said casually, as if the matter really didn't matter to her anymore!
"In that case, enjoy life and appreciate the happiness of the present moment," said Madam Mo, looking at An's mother's carefree demeanor, without offering to help her find her relatives.
If the relatives you find are like a raging flood or a ferocious beast, it's better not to look for them at all, and it's better to live a carefree and easy life on your own.
“The old lady is right, that’s what I think too,” said Mother An. After that, everyone left the hotel and went home.
An Yiruo then boarded the car with these "heavy" betrothal gifts and dowry.
On the way from the hotel to the parking lot, An Yiruo was very careful, afraid that she might lose something if she wasn't careful. If she lost something, she couldn't afford to pay for it!
"An'an, there's no need to be so nervous," Mo Jingchen said with a smile.
"Chen, with so much stuff in my hands, I always feel like someone is following me and trying to rob me!" An Yiruo said with a wry smile.
"An'an, you're overthinking it! You watch too many TV dramas, relax," Mo Jingchen said, trying to help An Yiruo relax her tense nerves.
Although that's what she said, An Yiruo didn't truly feel relieved until she was sitting in the car!
"Chen, what about these things...?"
"Mom gave this to you, just keep it safe. It's yours now, you can do whatever you want with it."
"Then wouldn't I suddenly become a rich woman?" An Yiruo said with a smile, picking up her bank card.
"certainly."
"Ahem, handsome, give me a smile. I'm rich!" An Yiruo said provocatively, lifting Mo Jingchen's chin with a bank card in hand.
Seeing the young master and young mistress's "affection" so intense, the driver, Xiao Zhang, consciously raised the partition in the back seat.
"An'an, I'm very expensive," Mo Jingchen said, keeping An Yiruo company.
"Don't worry, I'm rich. If you serve me well, you'll get a good tip," An Yiruo continued to tease Mo Jingchen, mimicking the mannerisms of a wealthy young master from a TV drama.
"In that case, I shall respectfully comply." Mo Jingchen smiled as he massaged An Yiruo's shoulders and back: "Master, is the pressure alright for you?"
"Hmm, not bad, keep at this intensity."
As Mo Jingchen massaged the patient, his hands began to wander: "Master, how does it feel?"
"Hmm... that's not bad. It's just that your hand seems to be in the wrong place!"
"Master, I also need to collect some interest," Mo Jingchen said before kissing An Yiruo's lips.
An Yiruo could only make moaning sounds as Mo Jingchen kissed her, and finally managed to push him away with all her might.
"Chen, we're in the car! Stop fooling around."
“An’an, weren’t you just acting all high and mighty, wanting to take care of me? What… are you scared now?” Mo Jingchen said, looking at An Yiruo with interest.
"Who's scared! I just think... it's not a good influence. After all... after all, Xiao Zhang is still in the front!" An Yiruo said, pointing to the driver's seat.
"Don't worry, he can't see or hear anything," Mo Jingchen teased An Yiruo, wanting to see her reaction.
"But it wouldn't be good if passersby saw us."
“My car windows are so private that no one can see inside from the outside.” Every assumption An Yiruo made was dispelled by Mo Jingchen.
"I……"
Seeing An Yiruo's thieving thoughts but lack of courage was really cute, but he didn't plan to do anything to An Yiruo in the car.
He reached out and pulled An Yiruo into his arms: "You're the kind of person who has the desire but not the courage! Let's see if you'll be naughty next time."
At this moment, An Yiru stuck out her tongue in Mo Jingchen's arms without saying a word.
Back at Xinghai Bay, An Yiruo hurriedly went upstairs to put away the things her mother-in-law had given her that day. Once she was in a place where she felt safe, she stood up and realized that Mo Jingchen was standing behind her at some point.
"Chen, you walk so quietly, it scared me to death!" An Yiruo patted her chest and took a few deep breaths before speaking.
"An'an was too focused and didn't hear my footsteps. Have you hidden everything?" Mo Jingchen said with a smile, looking at An Yiruo's actions.
"Yes, they're all in place."
“In that case, An’an, come with me.”
Where to?
"study!"
What are you going to the study for?
"An'an, are you a walking encyclopedia of questions?" After saying that, Mo Jingchen picked up An Yiruo and quickly left the bedroom, then turned and went into the study.
He helped An Yiruo sit down on the table. Then he turned around, took a stack of documents from the drawer, and handed them to An Yiruo.
"Chen, what's this?"
"Open it and take a look," Mo Jingchen said, not immediately telling An Yiruo what was inside, but choosing to let her open it herself.
An Yiruo opened the file folder with suspicion and saw a thick stack of documents inside. Upon closer inspection, she realized that all of these were Mo Jingchen's personal assets!
"Chen, why are you showing me these...?" An Yiruo asked Mo Jingchen, puzzled.
“An’an, this is all my possessions, and now I am giving it all to you.”
“All of it… to me? Chen, aren’t you afraid I’ll abscond with the money?” An Yiruo said.
Even if you abscond with the money, I will still bring you back and keep you by my side!
"Chen, what you're saying is rather frightening!"
"An'an, I've made up my mind about you for life! If there are no problems, let's sign the gift agreement. Once I sign it, I'll be a penniless pauper."
"Does that mean I'm now a real little rich woman?"
