However, Gu Yunshu personally attended their engagement ceremony and presented them with valuable gifts.
Gu Yunshu also solemnly apologized to Mu Jingnian and Jiang Niannian. He admitted that he had misplaced his trust in a villain, which had caused a rift between him and his older brother and sister. He felt genuinely guilty.
The siblings didn't hate him; they were more unsure how to get along with him or how to avoid putting their parents in a difficult position.
Now that all these problems have been resolved, the brother and sister can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
However, getting the siblings to treat Gu Yunshu the same way as before is virtually impossible. After all, some scars, even if healed, still cause pain.
However, they can get along better and more harmoniously, and it's not a big problem if they can't go back to how they were before. Besides, once people start a family, they will inevitably drift apart.
…
…
After the engagement party ended, Wan Ge looked at the other person and saw that he was still smiling happily.
"Aren't you that happy?"
Mu Jingnian nodded seriously: "Of course, we're engaged, you're my fiancée, and we'll get married in the future."
"And now that my relationship with Yunshu has improved, my parents won't be in such a difficult position anymore, so of course I'm very happy."
Wan Ge stroked his hair, then wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him directly.
When Mu Jingnian was pinned down, he tried to push her away.
But at that moment, Wan Ge whispered in his ear, "Do you know what my mother said before?"
"What?" Mu Jingnian asked, a hint of confusion in his eyes.
"My mother told me to test you before getting married to see if you're suitable. If you're not, I can't accept you."
"What...did you say?" Mu Jingnian's cheeks turned bright red instantly, and her earlobes were almost dripping blood.
"So, are you going to let me try or not? If you don't let me try, I might regret it tomorrow."
Mu Jingnian immediately turned the tables and took control. He hadn't wanted things to turn out this way, since doing this before marriage wasn't good for her. But since she had said so, how could Mu Jingnian not be anxious?
"I will prove it to you." After saying that, Mu Jingnian lowered his head and kissed her, demonstrating his ability through his actions.
…
…
The next day, Wan Ge immediately asked for leave, and Jiang Niannian was not surprised at all when she saw the leave information.
She said that she should take a few days off after getting engaged, especially since the plan that Wange taught her before the engagement was already very good and didn't need to be changed at all.
The work has already been done, so what's wrong with taking a few more days off? Besides, the other person is his sister-in-law; even if he doesn't want to come to work, he can just skip it.
Jiang Niannian waved her hand dismissively, telling Wan Ge to rest well and not to rush, and that she could go out and play with her brother for a few more days.
Wan Ge touched her waist, unsure whether she would go out to play or not.
But it's best not to stay home with him all the time. If I go out today, my back might break, because I'm really too tired.
…
That evening, Mu Jingnian looked at him expectantly, but Wan Ge felt guilty when she saw his gaze and immediately shook her head: "There's no need to prove anything today. I'm so tired and want to go to sleep early."
Upon hearing her words, Mu Jingnian's expectant gaze turned to disappointment, and he lowered his head in grievance.
Wan Ge could only sigh helplessly, but still hugged him and kissed him.

①On my only trip to the riverbank to relax, I unexpectedly met the most important person in my life.
②Since you told me you would become my family, I have a home again.
③It turns out that some things aren't so bad after all.
