of course, mu yichen was well aware that it was the truth. he also believed that his wife was capable enough to take charge of everything on her own.
he was depressed because he could not flaunt his love for luo chenxi anymore!
judging from mu yiling’s daily reports to him, there were quite a number of men who expressed their goodwill to his stupid woman, and some of them were children of rich and powerful families.
even though most of the people backed off upon seeing the wedding ring on luo chenxi’s finger, there were still some people who harbored evil intentions. they gave up on the matter on the surface, but they were secretly thinking of seducing their wife …
if it could be tolerated, who could not?
he had planned to seize the opportunity to make a high-profile appearance as luo chenxi’s husband and declare his ownership of her.
now, it was all over …
mu yichen could not make it to London in time, but luo chenxi still decided to attend old master wan’s birthday banquet according to her original plan.
the next day, she went to the jewelry store to pick out a gift for old master wan. then, accompanied by mu yiling, she went to the wan family’s villa in the suburbs of London.
due to mu yichen’s absence, luo chenxi was not in the mood to dress up meticulously. she had only changed into a gown and put on some light makeup before she appeared at the banquet.
even so, when she appeared, many people stopped in their tracks and turned around.
mu yiling took in all these people’s gazes. he could not help but secretly rejoice. it was a good thing that he insisted on following them today. otherwise, he could tell that there would be a lot of men who wanted to hit on her just by looking at the way his sister-in-law turned her head!
on the other hand, luo chenxi did not notice any of this at all.
as soon as she entered the door, she looked straight ahead and walked straight in the direction of old master wan.
she basically did not know these people in the London social circle and had no intention of becoming close friends with them. therefore, she was prepared to say hello to old master wan, give him congratulatory gifts and blessings, complete the task given to her by the mu family’s two elders, and then leave quietly.
old master wan appeared to be very surprised to see luo chenxi and mu yiling.
“yiling, you’re the second son of the mu family, yiling, aren’t you? when you were young, grandpa wan saw you and even carried you. do you remember?”
mu yiling nodded and said politely, ” ” of course i remember. you used to come to our house often. now that you’ve moved abroad, the two families don’t have much interaction. my father has always felt that it’s a pity … oh right, grandpa wan, this is my sister-in-law. you didn’t attend my big brother’s wedding last time, so you might not have met her. “
luo chenxi went forward and greeted old master wan. she said a few auspicious words before she gave him the birthday gift that she had chosen.
elder wan looked at her and sighed. ” i’ve long heard that yichen’s wife is beautiful and capable. she even gave birth to a pair of smart and lovely children. now that i look at her, she’s indeed a beauty! alas, i used to want to set my granddaughter up with yichen. now it seems that i didn’t. that little girl of mine is just a little kid. how can she be compared to your sister-in-law?”

“mu yiling, are you trying to ruin my reputation? do you think i’m that easily jealous?” luo chenxi could not help but roll her eyes at him. ” grandpa wan, you’re complimenting me. do you think i can’t tell? “
despite knowing that elder wan meant no harm, luo chenxi still pursed her lips secretly.
