Chapter 688: Doubt (3)
"My second brother is naughty and ignorant. I hope he has not offended the fifth lady." Su Mingfeng said with a smile.
Shen Miao nearly bit off her tongue.
The young master looked at him angrily. Shen Miao asked, "Su Minglang?"
"Two years since we last met, don't you recognize me?" Su Minglang said angrily, "Didn't you say you would bring me a gift when you came back?"
Shen Miao just felt it was a little unbelievable.
Two years ago, Su Minglang was a chubby, glutinous rice dumpling. He wasn't handsome, nor was he pretty either. At best, he was fair-skinned and tender, similar to the one before him. But two years later, who was this guy before him, now somewhat handsome and heroic? How had he lost so much weight? They say girls change a lot when they grow up, but do boys change a lot too?
Su Minglang was still sulking. Luo Tan, standing beside him, couldn't help but pat Su Minglang's head. Luo Tan loved beautiful things. She had been amazed to see such a handsome young man like Su Minglang earlier. Now, looking at Su Mingfeng, she spoke frankly and said carelessly, "As expected of two brothers, they are both equally good-looking."
Su Minglang was only focused on the fact that Shen Miao didn't know him. However, Su Minglang had never met such a straightforward woman before. He was praised so much, and the praise was given for being pretty. He couldn't help but laugh and cry.
Shen Qiu and Luo Ling also hurriedly greeted the two brothers.
Shen Miao looked at Su Minglang and smiled, "The gift is at my house. I'll have someone send it to you later." God had mercy on her. Ever since she followed Chen Xin back to Dingjing City, every day had been filled with all sorts of trivial matters, and Su Minglang had truly been completely forgotten by her. She hadn't seen Su Minglang either, and now seeing him like a completely different person, she couldn't help but feel a bit emotional.
Children may be growing up, and they change every day. Think about Wanyu and Fu Ming. They were just a little bit old when she left, and she could hardly recognize them when she came back.
Su Minglang was not one to hold grudges, and his dissatisfaction disappeared immediately after hearing this. Su Minglang asked, "Is Sister Chen here to go shopping?"
Su Mingfeng smiled awkwardly. He naturally knew that today was the day of the Shen family's execution. Originally, the first, second, and third branches of the Shen family were at odds with each other. The execution ground was not far away. It seemed that Shen Miao was here to watch the ceremony. However, he could not say this to his second brother.
Shen Miao said, “Just wandering around, I have to go back to the mansion now.”
Su Minglang nodded obediently and said, "Then remember to give me a gift."
Su Mingfeng slapped him on the back of the head. Su Minglang covered his head and glared at him. He turned to look at Shen Miao and was about to say goodbye to her when his eyes suddenly fixed. He pointed at the bracelet on Shen Miao's wrist and said, "Sister Shen, this jade ring of yours looks like the tiger head ring that Brother Xie made for you."
When these words came out, several people were stunned. Shen Qiu and Luo Ling didn't know what the tiger head ring was. Luo Tan was a little curious, and Shen Miao was naturally guilty. Su Minglang said it innocently, but saw Su Mingfeng frown.
Indeed, a single jade ring dangled from her snow-white wrist. The jade was of excellent quality, a lustrous emerald green, resembling a spiritual plant growing deep in the mountains. Yet, the ring wasn't a single piece; instead, it was split into two at the top, like a pair of rings. It was uncarved, its form entirely natural, save for a small tiger head carved into a raised area at the top.
Although Shen Miao felt that it looked very much like a cat.
It was one of the jewelry pieces in the box full of jewelry that Xie Jingxing had sent. Shen Miao had originally thought that those pieces were either rich or noble, and each piece had its own merits. If possible, it would be nice to wear them all. But Gu Yu took one look and said, "Young lady, you can't wear all of these. These pieces are too expensive. They need to be paired with gorgeous clothes to match. If they are simple, they will look out of place."
