It started with being betrayed by my ex-boyfriend

Bai Yunxi has always admired knowledgeable people the most. As he exclaimed in amazement, his eyes were filled with respect as he looked at Murong Xiang.

Murong Xiang was a relatively introverted person, and he could accept such compliments, but when he saw Bai Yunxi, who looked exactly like his deceased daughter, looking at him with admiration, he couldn't help but get excited.

Ran Yiyun smiled and pushed him: "You are so conceited!" She turned around and said to Bai Yunxi, "Watch your step, the threshold!"

Bai Yunxi almost fell down last time at the Gufeng Private Kitchen in City A. She had learned her lesson by now, but she was still very touched by Ran Yiyun's kind reminder.

After entering the Bai family’s house, Bai Yunxi was so amazed that he couldn’t close his mouth!

The main structure of the entire Murong family was handed down from hundreds of years ago. It was only after years of repairs and expansions by later generations that the Murong family developed to its current scale. However, no matter how later generations repaired and expanded it, they preserved and continued the original architectural style.

Therefore, the entire Murong family’s house was built in full compliance with the techniques and layout of ancient architecture!

Opposite the gate is a huge screen wall. A closer look reveals that it is made of a whole piece of huge stone. On the screen wall is a magnificent and beautiful picture of mountains and rivers, in which the mountains and rivers are ups and downs, which is particularly imposing.

Tao Jingchen said: "This picture was first carved on a huge stone by hand, and then painted. It is said that it took six months to build this screen wall. The emperor at that time specially dispatched skilled craftsmen to complete it. Later, the Murong Family Ancestral Hall was built nearby, and a merit archway was erected for the Murong family to commend their high moral character and prestige!"

Bai Yunxi was shocked more and more. After walking around the screen wall, the mansion with a rigorous and neat structure came into view. He entered a side door and the main road paved with stone slabs led directly to the hall.

The hall was already packed with people at this time. They were all relatives and friends of the Murong family. They had been waiting with their heads stretched out for who knows how long. When they saw them come in, everyone's eyes were focused on Bai Yunxi.

Then everyone opened their mouths wide and exclaimed in disbelief: "It's so similar! She really looks exactly like Qianqian! No no no, this is definitely Qianqian!"

Murong's parents looked at Bai Yunxi cautiously, fearing that such a scene would make her uncomfortable. Bai Yunxi just smiled gently and greeted the curious crowd: "Hello everyone, I am Bai Yunxi, you can call me Yunxi."

When everyone saw her polite yet unfamiliar demeanor, they knew that she was really not Murong Qianqian. Only then did they stop being amazed and greeted Bai Yunxi enthusiastically.

"Okay, we've met, let's go back first! Yunxi had a hard journey and needs to rest!" Ran Yiyun said, and everyone didn't want to stay any longer, so they went away in twos and threes.

The only people left in the hall were Bai Yunxi, Tao Jingchen, Murong's parents, and the assistant that Tao Jingchen brought with him.

Everyone sat down, Tao Jingchen waved his hand, and his assistant brought over a beautifully packaged box.

"This is the gift that Yunxi insisted on bringing to you two." Tao Jingchen said.

"There's no need to spend so much money! We are already very happy that you, Yunxi, can come!" Murong Xiang said immediately.

"Uncle Murong, don't be polite. It's very rude of you to come here suddenly. I haven't made any preparations, and I don't know what you two like, so I actually troubled Jingchen to prepare this gift."

When they heard that it was Tao Jingchen who prepared it, Murong's parents looked at each other, nodded secretly, and were indescribably happy.

Tao Jingchen is the son-in-law they have chosen, and now he and Bai Yunxi are giving them gifts together. What does this mean?

"In that case, we'll take it!"

Bai Yunxi was naturally relieved to see that they were willing to accept the gift. How could she know what they were thinking? Tao Jingchen knew it very well, but he would not say it out loud. Instead, he smiled slightly. When Murong's parents saw it, they were more certain of their thoughts.

After I settled Bai Yunxi down and sent her to her room to rest, Ran Yiyun came out and saw Tao Jingchen and Murong Xiang sitting opposite each other in the hall drinking tea. She then said to Tao Jingchen seriously, "Jingchen, tell me, have you fallen in love with Yunxi?"

Tao Jingchen's expression changed slightly: "Auntie..."

Ran Yiyun waved her hand and said, "You know, in our hearts, you are our son-in-law. Qianqian is not lucky enough to marry you officially. Yunxi and Qianqian look so alike. If you two are really together, we will be very happy. It was hard for Yunxi to follow Ji Hanmo, and now this kind of thing happened... We want to take Yunxi as our goddaughter. If you don't mind, you can get married after she gives birth to the baby and sends it back to the Ji family!"

Tao Jingchen smiled bitterly. He had just finally walked to Bai Yunxi's side and could accompany her as a friend. He was very careful with every step he took, fearing that Bai Yunxi would find out that he had crossed the line and would retreat back into a state of alert. He didn't even dare to mention a word about marriage!

"Aunt, Yunxi is already having a hard time with her pregnancy, and I don't want to add to her burden. I am already very satisfied to be able to accompany her so closely. As for the rest, there is still a long way to go, so we can talk about it slowly later."

……

The south of the Yangtze River at night is as dark as ink, and the sky seems to be right in front of you, as if you can touch it with your hand.

The sky is full of stars, blinking mischievously. Such a beautiful sight is extremely rare in the city.

Bai Yunxi sat on a lounge chair in the yard, looking at the starry sky, feeling indescribably peaceful.

Ever since she met Ji Hanmo, she hasn't felt this calm for a long time.

"How was the dinner? Are you used to it?" Ran Yiyun put a cushion on her waist and asked with a smile.

"It's delicious. I ate a lot. I will definitely become a fat man if I live here with you for a while." Bai Yunxi said.

The food was made by Ran Yiyun herself. As soon as it was served, Bai Yunxi could see her intentions: the dishes were very delicately matched, and even her appetite, which had been spoiled by Ji Hanmo, was instantly raised. In addition, Tao Jingchen introduced that the ingredients of these dishes were carefully cultivated using the fertile soil unique to Jiangnan and the secret fertilizer of the Murong family, so Bai Yunxi ate comfortably and at ease.

Ran Yiyun looked at her with eyes full of love and heartache: "You have been pregnant for more than four months, and you are still so thin. You should eat more and take good care of yourself."

"It's okay. I've never been able to gain weight since I was a child, but I'm very strong. I've never had any serious illness. I just catch a minor cold occasionally, but I'll be fine after the first night's sleep!" said Bai Yunxi.
