Chapter 38 Difficult to Fit In
It is said that an ugly daughter-in-law must meet her parents-in-law, and this ugly daughter must meet her stepmother.
In order to be less stiff, she went to Wanhui and bought four limited edition scarves. There were four scarves in the store, and he bought them all. In the cold weather, this gift was neither too formal nor too cheap.
After parking the car in the underground mall, Mu Nanxi took a deep breath, practiced smiling in front of the mirror, and then got out of the car.
When I entered the door, my eldest and second brothers were both in the living room. I don’t know what happy things they were talking about, but the family was having a great time.
Mu Nanxi lowered her eyes slightly. It was impossible for her not to feel lost, as if she was just an outsider.
Perhaps it was this sense of disparity that tormented Mu Nanxi and made her crazy.
"Mom, Dad, Brother, and Second Brother, I'm back." Mu Nanxi tried her best to make herself happy.
It seemed as if she was a cutting point; the laughter and joy came to an abrupt end. Mu Nanxi felt stuffy in her heart and suffocated for a moment.
"You're back. Come and sit down." Mu Zhen called Mu Nanxi, who nodded and handed over the gifts: "It's getting cold, so I bought scarves for everyone."
When Mu Nanxi met Qiao Manyin for the first time, she seemed to be a woman with deep pride.
Qiao Manyin glanced at Mu Nanxi and politely took the gift: "Let's eat together."
Mu Nanxi smiled and nodded, and gave all to the remaining three. Mu Zhen was pleased to borrow it, and the second brother accepted it happily. Only the eldest brother stood up and went to the kitchen without even looking at her. Mu Nanxi didn't care.
Give the scarf to the servant, and it’s none of her business what to do with it.
"How did you, little girl, offend him?" The second brother asked in a low voice while the eldest brother was away.
Mu Nanxi smiled bitterly. No matter how she explained it, she couldn't explain it clearly, so she might as well keep silent. She just said, "It's my fault. Isn't my second brother recording? Can you bear running back and forth?"
Mu Ci stretched his shoulders and said nonchalantly: "If I don't come back, won't the big devil call me to kill me?"
"You're really willing to buy it. This limited edition is nearly 80,000 more expensive than the regular one. Hundreds of thousands are gone, and my appearance fee is gone."
Mu Nanxi scratched his head: "I didn't think much about it, it just looked pretty good."
Mu Ci glanced at Mu Nanxi and said meaningfully, "There's still a long way to go. Don't people always say that time reveals a person's true character?"
"Time will prove everything."
A double entendre.
If you had ulterior motives, you might be at a loss what to do when you were called out now, but Mu Nanxi was open-minded, so you felt helpless when he said that.
Yes, time reveals a person’s true character.
Qiao Manyin's pride and nobility did not allow her to do anything impolite. Although everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves during the meal, Mu Nanxi actually felt that she was redundant.
No one really treats her well. Maybe Mu Zhen loves her very much, but she is just one of his many children.
During the meal, Mu Che didn't even look at her.
"Mom, Dad, and Brother, I'm done eating. I have classes tomorrow, so I have to go back and finish my homework." Mu Nanxi stood up and apologized.
"Let's stay here tonight. Shanhai Manor is not close to here and it's too late." Mu Zhen said.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Mu Nanxi waved her hand: "No, I'm going to get something from my room, and I'll be back soon after I'm done."
Asking her to be resolute, Qiao Manyin said, "Okay, be careful, and send a message to your dad when you get back."
Mu Nanxi nodded quickly: "Okay, Mom."
I found a big box in the corner of the room. It contained the notes that Mu Nanxi had made before the final sprint of her senior year, as well as some mock tests.
The handwriting is neat and beautiful, which makes people feel comfortable when reading it.
