Chapter 119 Who allowed you to wear this dress?
Mu Nanyan was about to rest when she heard a gentle knock on the door. She got up and opened the door, only to find her aunt Xu Wenxin standing outside with a plate of cut fruit in her hand.
"Aunt, why are you here?"
Mu Nanyan was a little surprised and stepped aside to let her in. Xu Wenxin walked into the room with a smile, put the fruit on the table, and said gently:
"I've been busy with work these past few days and haven't had much time to care for you, so I wanted to come and see you. Are you adjusting well these days?"
Mu Nanyan nodded, a relaxed smile on her face:
"It's pretty good. Everyone is very nice to me. Grandma prepares delicious food for me every day. I've gained weight."
As she spoke, she deliberately touched her slightly bulging belly, her tone a little coquettish.
Xu Wenxin was amused by her, and the corners of her eyes curved into crescents:
"You, why are you so cute?"
She paused, and her tone suddenly softened.
"Yan Yan, actually I always wanted a daughter, but unfortunately I gave birth to a son. I'm really happy that you're back. From now on, we can go shopping together when we have nothing to do. The house is full of men, and Mom is not in good health, so I can't go out and play alone. Now it's good, you're back, if you don't mind, you can treat me as your mother."
When Mu Nanyan heard this, a warm feeling surged in her heart. She looked at Xu Wenxin's gentle eyes and suddenly felt her eyes warm. She gently held Xu Wenxin's hand, her voice choked with sobs:
"Aunt, thank you. I'm really lucky to have a family like you."
Xu Wenxin patted the back of her hand with a warm smile:
"Silly child, what's the point of saying thank you when you're a family? By the way, I have a day off tomorrow, do you want to go shopping together? You've been in Haicheng for so long, you haven't gone out for a good walk yet, right?"
Mu Nanyan's eyes lit up and she nodded immediately: "Okay, I just want to go out for a walk."
Xu Wenxin smiled even more happily: "I'll take you shopping for clothes. I've always thought that if I had a daughter, I would dress her up beautifully. Now I finally have the chance!"

The next morning, Chenchen was taken by Shen Changfeng to play in the army again. Xu Wenxin excitedly took Mu Nanyan to the most prosperous commercial street in Haicheng.
The two walked into a high-end clothing store with luxurious decoration and soft lighting. Various exquisite dresses and ready-to-wear clothes were displayed on the racks.
Xu Wenxin was looking through the clothes on the hangers and said to Mu Nanyan:
"Yanyan, try these sets. I think they are especially suitable for you."
She was holding several elegantly cut dresses in her hands and pushed Mu Nanyan into the fitting room without saying anything.
Mu Nanyan smiled helplessly and had to try it on obediently. When she changed her clothes and walked out of the fitting room, she found that Xu Wenxin was not outside, but instead there was a sharp quarrel.
"I've been waiting for that dress for so long, and you're actually going to sell it to someone else?"
A woman dressed exquisitely and wearing bright makeup was yelling at the waiter, her tone full of aggressiveness.
The waiter looked embarrassed and explained in a low voice:
"I'm sorry, Miss Yun, that lady came first, so..."
Before he could finish his words, the waiter's eyes fell on Mu Nanyan, who had just come out of the fitting room. The woman known as "Miss Yun" followed the waiter's gaze and immediately noticed the skirt on Mu Nanyan, her face instantly darkening.
She walked up to Mu Nanyan in high heels, looking aggressive and saying in a bad tone:
"Who allowed you to wear this dress? I've been waiting for this couture piece for a long time!"
Mu Nanyan glanced at her lightly, her tone calm but with a hint of coldness:
"You've been waiting for a long time. What does it have to do with me?"
After saying that, she was too lazy to pay attention to the other party, turned around and walked towards the sofa, ready to wait for Xu Wenxin to come back.
Yun Qianxue hadn't expected Mu Nanyan to ignore her like that, and she was immediately furious. She quickly chased after her, standing in front of Mu Nanyan, her voice rising a few notches:
"Do you know who I am? How dare you talk to me like that!"
Mu Nanyan raised her eyes and glanced at her, with a hint of sarcasm on the corner of her lips:
"Who are you and do you have anything to do with me?"
Seeing the two of them getting on edge, the waiter quickly stepped forward to persuade them:
"Ms. Mu, Ms. Yun, please stop arguing and talk it over..."
However, Yun Qianxue refused to listen and continued to point at Mu Nanyan:
"You're the type to wear haute couture? Take those clothes off now and stop wasting my time!"
Just then, Xu Wenxin walked in from outside the store with two cups of freshly bought coffee in her hands. As soon as she entered the door, she heard Yun Qianxue's sharp accusations and her brows immediately frowned.
"What's going on?"
Xu Wenxin's voice was not loud, but it carried an authority that could not be ignored.
Yun Qianxue heard the voice and turned to see that it was Xu Wenxin. Her eyes immediately lit up. She immediately put on an aggrieved expression, walked over quickly, took Xu Wenxin's arm, and said coquettishly:
"Cousin, you came at the perfect time! This woman snatched my clothes. Look at her! I've been waiting for this dress for a long time!"
Xu Wenxin glanced down at Yun Qianxue's hand, her brows furrowing even deeper. She pulled her hand back coldly, her tone indifferent:
"I asked her to wear this."
Yun Qianxue was stunned for a moment, obviously not reacting:
"Cousin, what are you talking about?"
At this moment, Mu Nanyan came over, smiled at Xu Wenxin, and said in a friendly tone:
"Aunt, you're back."
Yun Qianxue was completely stunned. She stared at the two of them with wide eyes and asked in disbelief:
"Cousin, she...she is your niece?"
Yun Qianxue had heard from her father that the Shen family had a granddaughter who had been living away from home. She was only found back two years ago, but Yun Qianxue had never seen her once.
Xu Wenxin ignored Yun Qianxue's shock and walked straight to Mu Nanyan, handing her the coffee in her hand, and said gently:
"Yanyan, how do you like the clothes? Do you like them?"
Mu Nanyan nodded and smiled: "I like it very much. Auntie has a good taste."
Yun Qianxue stood aside, her face turning pale and blue. She had never expected that she would hit a wall. She bit her lip and said unwillingly:
"Cousin, I've been waiting for this dress for a long time. Can you..."
Xu Wenxin interrupted her coldly: "Qianxue, Yanyan tried the clothes first, and I asked her to wear them. If you like it, you can wait for the next batch."
Yun Qianxue was choked and speechless, her face burning as if she had been slapped in public. She glared at Mu Nanyan fiercely, but dared not say anything else. She could only turn around and leave in anger.
After she walked away, Xu Wenxin sighed and said to Mu Nanyan:
"This girl has been spoiled since she was a child, don't take it to heart."
Mu Nanyan shook her head and said with a smile:
"Aunt, I'm fine. But you were so domineering just now."
Xu Wenxin smiled and patted her hands:
"Let's go and look at some other clothes. I'm going to make you look pretty today."
