The moment it was opened, the diamond necklace in the gift box instantly emitted a dazzling light.
Mu Ning gently touched the necklace with her fingers. The texture was smooth as silk, making the corners of her lips curl up unconsciously into a beautiful arc. It was the ecstasy that she tried her best to suppress.
“Thank you, Grandpa. Ah Ning likes Grandpa’s gift very much,” Mu Ning said happily.
Although it was just a diamond necklace, this was the first birthday gift Mu Kun had given her in so many years.
In the past, Mu Kun would just give her money, so Mu Ning cherished the first gift Mu Kun gave her.
More importantly, Mu Kun gave her a gift in front of so many people on her birthday. That meant that Mu Kun had acknowledged her status in the Mu family.
Although Mu Ning was a little regretful that Mu Kun had shown up so late. If Mu Kun had appeared when so many people were present just now, she would have been even more glorious. Perhaps those people would not have left the banquet early.
Everyone was amazed by Mu Ning’s gift. A diamond necklace of this level would cost at least a million yuan.
Seeing that Mu Kun seemed to have the intention to leave, Mu Ning quickly went forward and said considerately, “Grandpa, I’ll help you back.”
Mu Kun only said indifferently, “There’s no need. I’m going out for a while. It’s your sister’s birthday today too. I’ll treat the both of you equally. I’ll go over and give her a birthday gift.”
The smile on Mu Ning’s face suddenly froze. She had wondered why Mu Kun, who never gave gifts, would suddenly give her a birthday gift today. It turned out that he wanted to give Lin Yin a gift. He was afraid that someone would say that he was biased towards his biological granddaughter and did not care about the adopted one, so he gave her a gift.
Mu Ning smiled coldly in her heart. However, when she realized that there were still guests around, Mu Ning quickly composed herself and said with a smile, “Grandpa, then I’ll send you over? It’s so late. I’ll be worried if you go out. I’ll accompany Grandpa and give Sister my birthday blessing.”
Mu Kun looked around and refused, “There’s no need. There are still guests here. You can entertain them here.”
At this moment, a discerning guest immediately went forward and said, “Why don’t we all go over together? Coincidentally, we were just talking about the fact that the two young ladies of the Mu Family are celebrating their birthdays at the same time. We can’t favor one over the other. We have to go over and give her our birthday blessings.”
This person’s words immediately received everyone’s approval. Even Hou Ying, who was at the side, could not help but nod repeatedly. Her heart had long flown to the place where her idol was present.
Sun Yun snorted unhappily. She was already a little angry that most of these guests had left.
Now that Sun Yun heard that Mu Kun was also going to celebrate the birthday of Lin Yin, a girl who had been wandering outside for a long time, she was naturally very upset.
Mu Ning felt terrible too, but she still smiled. “Grandpa, Grandma, why don’t we do this? It’s Sister’s birthday today. If Grandpa and Grandma only give me a birthday celebration, Sister will indeed be unhappy. Why don’t we all surprise Sister?”
Sun Yun was about to mutter something when Mu Ning shook her head at Sun Yun and said, “Grandma, speaking of which, Sister is really not as lucky as me.
I’ve had Grandpa, Grandma, Dad, and Brother’s care for so many years.
Therefore, I’m willing to share all the love I have received over the years with
Sister so that Sister can feel the love of her family like I did.”
Mu Ning went forward and held Sun Yun’s hand. She persuaded her with a quiet and generous expression, “Grandma, I know you dote on me because you think I’m better educated than Sister. But Sister has been wandering outside for so long after all. She might even have lived a life of a beggar .”
“It’s already not easy for a girl who lives in a dirty and vulgar world to return to her family safely and cleanly. Grandma, why don’t you give Sister more time to slowly adapt to our family?”
Mu Ning’s words made Sun Yun quiet down for a while, but the people beside her began to discuss.
“Looks like the Mu family is indeed a little dissatisfied with Lin Yin!”
“That’s right. Don’t forget that the Mu Family is an aristocratic family. All the children in the family have been raised with the best upbringing. They naturally won’t like a girl who grew up in the slums with no manners and upbringing. It’s normal that they don’t like her..”
