"Hatsune!"

With a loud shout, a tall shadow came towards her, stretching out two strong arms to hold Ruan Chuyin tightly in his arms.

Qin Guanzhi's palm felt empty, and his eyes instantly became dangerous.

"Yun Chi, you're finally back!"

Her delicate voice was choked with sobs, and her two small hands subconsciously wrapped around his wasp waist and tightened hard.

The familiar embrace, the familiar heartbeat and the familiar smell, everything is the same as before, and the joy can be found again.

Ruan Chuyin's reaction was beyond Xiang Yunchi's expectations. He had thought Jiaojiao wouldn't forgive him so easily. So, could this mean his Jiaojiao had been waiting for him all along? Then, two arms pulled her tighter against his chest.

"cough."

Seeing that the young couple was hugging each other tightly and frequently treating them as air, Wu Shuhong coughed loudly without being able to bear to watch.

There was a hint of disappointment in the eyes of the Duke and his wife. Ye Sanning was especially impressed. She understood Ruan Chuyin's attitude towards Xiang Yunchi and suddenly became less certain about her son's chances of becoming the legal husband.

Qin Guanzhi's expression was so bad that he could no longer be described as bad. He sat down next to his parents and lowered his head silently.

"Yun Chi, why don't you bring Hatsune over to sit down!"

Xiang Wanrong waved to the two children happily, glancing at Ye Sangning out of the corner of her eye, took off the bamboo-jointed glass bracelet on her left wrist, and put it into Ruan Chuyin's hand.

"Child, keep this bracelet. Our Xiang family's businesses are spread all over the world, and we are involved in every industry you can think of. I'll have someone make a list for you later. Just take whatever you want, as much as you want."

Ah!

Pie in the sky really does fall!

Ruan Chuyin's back straightened instantly, her heart was beating so fast from excessive excitement that she couldn't even form a sentence.

The beautiful woman in front of him looked much older than Qin Guanzhi's mother, but her facial features were very delicate, and it was not difficult to see her unparalleled beauty in her youth.

The knotted bun was combed meticulously, and emerald jade and pearl hairpins were dotted in an orderly manner, making it look extraordinarily noble.

Her skin was fair with a rosy glow, her eyes were like the bright moon, with fine traces of time at the corners of her eyes. She gazed at her with a smile, and there was endless tenderness in her eyes, just like her own mother.

Ruan Chuyin stared blankly at the emerald green bracelet in her hand, feeling a pang of bitterness at the tip of her nose.

"Yun Chi, what are you still standing there for? Put it on Hatsune!" Xiang Wanrong reminded her son, looking at him speechlessly. How come he couldn't catch up today, as he was usually quite clever?

The Duke of Zhenguo and his wife and Qin Guanzhi watched with dim eyes as the rare item was slowly put on the delicate white wrist, their faces visibly tensed.

The atmosphere in the main hall seemed to be split in two by a sharp sword: one half was peaceful, the other half was solemn.

"Thank you, auntie." Ruan Chuyin thanked softly.

"Oh, call me mother." Since the "treasure key" of the Xiang family had been taken away, there was no reason to call her aunt. Xiang Wanrong didn't give her any chance to be estranged. She took her little hand and stroked it repeatedly, her eyes full of love and affection.

In this life, she gave birth to nine children but never a daughter. Now the fourth child, Kong Huiyin, brought home a wife. Now the fifth child also has one, and her temperament is much gentler than that of the fourth child.

"Madam Xiang, Hatsune hasn't married into your family yet. Isn't it too early for you to ask her to change her mind now?"

Ye Sanning felt every word Xiang Wanrong uttered was particularly harsh. Even if Ruan Chuyin was calling her mother, shouldn't she call her mother first?

"Guanzhi, are you and Hatsune set to get married?" She suppressed her displeasure and asked Qin Guanzhi stiffly. Originally, they had a good date, but then he said he wanted to find someone better, and then there was no more talk. His dithering nature was neither his own nor his father's, so he didn't know who he resembled.

After Qin Guanzhi was reminded of this, his dark eyes fluctuated instantly, and he raised the corners of his lips with a half-smile towards his unmarried bride who was tightly embraced by someone.

"The first day of next month is a good day. What do you think, Miku?"

Suddenly, there was no sound in my ears.

Everyone's eyes turned to her, quietly waiting for her answer.

Pressure - sweeping over me like an overwhelming force.

A slight cold sweat quietly wet the palms of his hands, and his throat seemed to be strangled by something, and he couldn't make a sound for a long time.

Today is different from the past. With four elders present, there are some things I cannot say.

Whatever her answer was, it would offend one of the parties.

In such a Shura field, the heaven and earth are spinning.

She was so nervous that she suddenly couldn't breathe. Her eyes went dark and she fell into Xiang Yunchi's arms.

It was a blessing in disguise, and the Shura field came to an end for the time being.

Therefore, Xiang Yunchi and his parents stayed at the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion that night.

In the main courtyard, Ye Sangning's face was darker than the bottom of a pot, and the curses he uttered were getting more and more unpleasant. No matter how Qin Lang tried to persuade him, it didn't seem to work at all.

"What do you think that woman meant? Was she trying to show off?" Ye Sangning said angrily. Whenever he thought of Xiang Wanrong's fake smile, he felt extremely angry.

"It's nothing special. It's just that you gave the meeting gift a little more promptly than we did." Qin Lang said lightly, making Ye Sangming blush.

Qin Guanzhi remained silent, but there was a hint of regret in his eyes when he looked at his mother.

It was a game of chess, but I should have thought of it earlier. Now that we have a comparison, I wonder what Hatsune will think.

A gust of wind blew past, and Ye Sangning was no longer in the room.

Ye Sanning, a descendant of the Xingyun Sect, preferred swordplay to jewelry. The jewelry her in-laws and husband had gifted her over the years, along with the treasures of the Zhenguo Mansion, were buried in the treasury, gathering a thick layer of dust.

She had wanted to wait until the couple's wedding day to bring it out to show respect, but now it seems that she was not thoughtful enough.

I remember that when I first met my parents-in-law, my mother-in-law gave me a pair of rare ivory-carved plum blossom bracelets. How could I have forgotten it when I became a mother-in-law?

Now, no matter what treasure she took out, it could not compare to the bamboo-jointed glass bracelet that she had preconceived.

After much deliberation, Ye Sanning finally chose a pair of unique red agate drop earrings. These earrings were of great age, classic in design, and timeless, making them an extremely rare antique.

"Guanzhi, come with me to Hatsune's courtyard. I've picked out a treasure for her that she's sure to like. The jade key in your hand is made of a special material, and it's hard to make an identical one right now. Wait until she gets the cloud-patterned pendant after her name is registered in the family tree and she gets married."

"Mom, let's go tomorrow. When Hatsune woke up just now, she said she had something to say to Xiang Yunchi alone." Qin Guanzhi's tone was light, and no emotion could be heard.

He knew that Hatsune must be communicating with Xiang Yunchi about her desire to stay in Liangcheng and fulfill her promise to make him her husband.
