Upon hearing this, Cao Nana looked surprised: "I've heard that the relationship between a daughter-in-law and her mother-in-law is the most difficult to get along with. I didn't expect you to be so good to Mu Zeyu's mother."
These words struck a nerve with Ji Zhixia, and her expression changed.
In the past, Mu Zeyu's mother, Wu Yan'e, really adored her.
But after the big incident at the engagement ceremony, the Mu family's impression of her was greatly diminished, which is why she had to try to please her in-laws.
Ji Zhixia would never say these things in front of Cao Nana, even though she was her best friend.
"Hehehe..." Ji Zhixia gave a perfunctory smile: "You'll understand when you get married..."
marry……
When Cao Nana heard those two words, the first person she thought of was the man next to Ji Zhinan…
A domineering aura, a face that makes all women scream.
If she could become the wife of that kind of man, she would probably be the happiest woman in the world.
"Nana?"
Seeing that Cao Nana was in a daze again, Ji Zhixia called her name several more times.
"Huh?" Cao Nana realized.
Seeing her girlish infatuation, Ji Zhixia seemed to understand something and deliberately asked, "Nana, you haven't fallen for any man, have you?"
"Nonsense!" Cao Nana immediately retorted, but her flushed face betrayed her true feelings.
"I was just thinking about someone I dislike."
Before Ji Zhixia could ask, she immediately changed the subject and asked, "Xiaxia, do you remember the man who took Ji Zhinan away at your engagement ceremony?"
Ji Zhixia certainly remembered; the man's face seemed to be etched into her mind, and she could not forget it even now.
Although Mu Zeyu is also handsome, that man is the one that makes all women dream of him.
He exudes a domineering aura and a sunny, masculine charm, completely unlike the effeminate air of most young male celebrities today.
"Of course I remember," Ji Zhixia replied with a hint of sourness. "What's wrong?"
Cao Nana casually asked, "What's the relationship between that man and Ji Zhinan?"
"Need you even ask? It's probably a relationship between a gigolo and Xiao Si!"
"Pretty boy and Xiao Si?" Cao Nana didn't understand what she meant.
"The pretty boy is the rich woman's mistress, and Ji Zhinan is the man's mistress whom he's keeping behind the rich woman's back," Ji Zhixia explained.
"Think about it, we've been in Beijing for so many years, we're very familiar with the circles of rich kids, do you know that man from that day?"
Cao Nana shook her head decisively. If she had known him earlier, she would never have gotten involved with Ji Zhinan, but would have made him her boyfriend.
"That makes sense. We don't know him, so he's definitely not from a wealthy family. He's dressed smartly in designer brands, so he doesn't seem poor. There's only one possibility, only that possibility!"
"..." After thinking it over carefully, Cao Nana felt that Ji Zhixia's words made a lot of sense.
Yes! If that man were truly rich and powerful, how could I not know after living in the capital for so many years?
I never expected him to be a gigolo... Huh!
I felt a deep sense of disgust, but then I thought of the man's devastatingly handsome face...
No, even if he really is in this line of work, he can only be her kept man!
…………
After shopping with Cao Nana, Ji Zhixia went to the Mu family's house with lots of bags.
Mu Zeyu and Mu Daxiang both work at the company, so only Wu Yan'e and her daughter Mu Minmin are at home.
