Reborn as a girl and school beauty

It is already mid-June, and Chen Lian's birthday is the day after tomorrow. Yang Lingxin has been getting busier and busier these days. She doesn't even bring her home at night, and just spends the night on the sofa in the office.

Yang Lingxin worked so hard because she wanted to give Chen Lian a surprise on her birthday. After all, she hadn't prepared anything last year and even forgot about it. She had to prepare something and give Chen Lian a big surprise, so that she could be happily surprised.

The reason why I didn’t go home these days is because the company is very busy, and many employees are working overtime. I can’t go home directly. As a boss, I can’t let employees work overtime here every day. This birthday surprise is going to be held in the company. On the birthday, I also gave the entire company three days off to let everyone relax, and I also ordered an extra-large cake.

It will be delivered to the company the day after tomorrow afternoon. Sometimes it will be very lively. Chen Lian at home is completely unaware of it, and the company's employees basically know about it. After all, they have given themselves three days off, so they will definitely participate in this event. After all, some employees have worked here for decades and have never had such an event. This is the first time.

the other side

Chen Lian was lying on the sofa watching TV boredly. It had been three days. She had been alone in the empty room for three days. Because she was too busy at the company and didn't want to go to the company to disturb Lingxin, she didn't know a lot of things.

After a while, there was a knock on the door. Chen Lian opened the door and saw her mother-in-law standing at the door. "Mother-in-law, what are you doing here? Come in and sit down. I'll get you a glass of water."

He poured a glass of water in front of Ye Liuhong and sat next to her.

"I came here because of what I told you. You weren't at home a few days ago, so I didn't wait long. This time I came to talk to you about engagement. The wedding has probably been decided. How about getting married on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year after you graduate from college? I have to see your opinion too. We can't just listen to our family." Ye Liuhong took a sip of tea and said

"Sure, it's a good day." Chen Lian said

"Okay, let's set the date. By the way, how much do you want as a gift?" Ye Liuhong asked

"Uh... well... it doesn't matter whether there's a betrothal gift or not. It's not important anyway. After all, I don't have any relatives anymore. It doesn't matter whether there's a betrothal gift or not. If it weren't for Lingxin, I wouldn't be here now." Chen Lian shrugged and replied.

"...You really don't want a betrothal gift? Although you won't be short of money if you marry into our family, since you don't want a betrothal gift, then just accept this." Ye Liuhong said as she took out a box from her bag. When she opened it, she saw a jade bracelet.

"This is..." Chen Lian said, looking at the jade bracelet in Ye Liuhong's hand.

"This is the Dragon King Jade, passed down from our Yang family's ancestors. It was originally intended for Lingxin to wear when she got married. Now, according to the rules passed down from our Yang family's ancestors, this jade bracelet will be passed to you. Please accept it." Ye Liuhong said

"No, no, no, mother-in-law, this is too expensive. I can't accept it. Besides, we haven't gotten married yet, so I can't accept it." Chen Lian waved her hand quickly and said

"Take it. I'll pass it on to you sooner or later. After all, this has always been the rule." Ye Liuhong said

"But..." Chen Lian said

"Be obedient, this is also the agreement between him and me."

"Who?" Chen Lian

"Your Uncle Li, I received a letter during the Chinese New Year. It said that he was your uncle, not your biological uncle. The letter said that when he adopted you, he said you were a very good child and asked us to take good care of you. Then he said that his time was running out and he wouldn't be able to see you get married. This was his biggest regret. I know it's a little late to tell you now, but you didn't talk to us at the time and eventually got depression. So in order to avoid you getting hurt, I never told you about this.

He said that after you get married, he would watch over you from heaven and that he really wanted to see you get married. The engagement date was also what he had said. When I went back that time, I saw that letter again. Since you want to marry into our family, we will definitely be responsible for you. Xiao Lian knows what you are thinking now, but some things should be let go. Uncle Li is also doing this for your own good. "Ye Liuhong recalled

"I understand. I've let it go." Chen Lian smiled with relief.

"Well, that's good. Now we are a family. After I retire, you and Lingxin will manage the company. The company will be in your hands from now on." Ye Liuhong said

"Don't worry, mother-in-law. Although I don't know much about business, I will still do my best." Chen Lian said

"Is it time to... change your words?" Ye Liuhong said

"mom."

"Okay, I'll go back first. If you have time, come back for dinner and have a family reunion. It's been a while since we've been together. Keep the bracelet."

"Okay, bye, Mom!"

night

Yang Lingxin finally decided to come back. She had no plans to stay in the company today, but she came back acting mysterious. Every time Chen Lian talked to her, she became flustered, which made Chen Lian more and more confused. Until it was time to go to bed, the two of them sat on the bed, looking at their phones, and said nothing.

Unable to bear it any longer, Chen Lian stood up and sat directly on Yang Lingxin's lap, pressing her shoulders and asking, "Tell me what you've been doing these past few days. Oh, why are you so flustered every time I talk to you? Are you hiding this from me too?"

After the two of them stared at each other for a few minutes, Yang Lingxin said, "No... nothing. The company has been too busy these days, and we can't let an employee work overtime alone. I have a boss who will run home. Although there is overtime pay, there are some things they can't handle."

Chen Lian looked at her intently and said, "Really? You've been extremely stressed these past few days. Forget it, don't be too tired. Rest when you need to. Do you hear me?"

Yang Lingxin nodded quickly and thought to herself: "I'll give you a big surprise the day after tomorrow. I definitely can't reveal it now, otherwise how can I say it's a reminder?"

Chen Lian added, "Oh, by the way, my mother came today. We set our wedding date on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year after graduation. Then, she gave me a jade bracelet and said it was the betrothal gift."

After seeing the jade bracelet, Yang Lingxin said in surprise: "Dragon King Jade Bracelet, I didn't expect it to be passed on to you. My mother said she would pass it on to me when I got married, but now it's different. Now it's passed on to you."

Chen Lian asked, "Why do you all think this bracelet is so important?"

"Of course, this is very rare. There are only a few people like it in the world. As for the jade, my mother told me that this is a piece of jade that Yang bought at an auction. It's called Dragon King Jade. Yang spent a lot of money to get this jade. Can you guess how much it cost?"

"How many?"

"I paid 3,700 million to buy this piece of jade. Later, it was made into two bracelets, four rings, and two Buddha statues to wear as necklaces. Moreover, these two bracelets can only be passed down once every four generations, and can only be passed down to one person."

"Isn't this... too expensive?"

"It's okay. It will be passed on sooner or later. Now that it's in your hands, you should cherish it. It's getting late, go to bed."
