President, please comfort me.
Chapter 3 is given to you, so keep it.
Winnie opened the gift bag: a sparkling ruby necklace, a Ferrari car key, a silver snake diamond bracelet, and a pair of starry diamond earrings.
Her eyes lit up noticeably when she saw the earrings.
The earrings were a gift from Tang Chao, and the bracelet was a gift from Tang Yue.
Faced with these valuable gifts, Wen Qi was stunned: "Uncle, Aunt, Big Brother, Xiao Yue, thank you for the gifts, but they are too expensive, I can't accept them."
Seeing Wen Qi's nervousness, Tang Hui stepped forward and took her other arm: "Xiao Qi, your uncle and aunt gave you this gift because they like you, so please accept it."
Tang's mother stood aside, beaming from ear to ear: "That's right, that's right, your aunt loves you so much, oh my, this little darling."
Tang Yue was also very kind-hearted, raising her right hand and shaking it: "Yes, yes, sister-in-law, please accept it. We were both born in the Year of the Snake, so I bought you a matching bracelet. Here, it's a sister bracelet set."
Hearing them say that, Wenqi couldn't refuse anymore. Her beautiful eyes welled up with tears of gratitude: "Thank you, I really like the gift."
Tang's mother liked Wen Qi more and more the more she looked at her. After learning about Wen Qi's experiences from Tang Hui, she felt even more sorry for her: "Good child, look at the gift your mother gave you, that is really precious."
She waved her hand and said, "Xiao Hui, what are you waiting for? Take it out now!"
If Tang Hui hadn't heard her mother say that, she would have almost forgotten. She turned around and urged, "Husband, bring it here quickly."
Xiao Yan had been waiting to the side for a while. He stepped forward and handed the box in his hand to Tang Hui.
Tang Hui opened the box and took out a complete set of sparkling jewelry. She said earnestly, "Xiao Qi, this was given to me by Grandma Ahe. Now I'm giving it to you." She then placed it in Wen Qi's hands.
Upon hearing that it was passed down from Xiao He's grandmother, Wen Qi's eyes widened, and she immediately turned her gaze to Xiao He.
Xiao He sat on a single sofa smoking. Since entering the room, he hadn't said a word, but his eyes had been following Wen Qi the whole time.
Noticing her gaze and realizing everyone was looking at him, he lazily smiled and said, "Why are you looking at me? Just take it if it's yours."
Seeing this, Tang Hui said, "Xiao Qi, A He just looks like he's unapproachable. He looks fierce, but he's actually a paper tiger. Don't be afraid of him."
Tang Chao, who was sitting to the side, burst out laughing unexpectedly upon hearing this. Immediately afterward, Xiao He gave him a cold glance.
Tang Chao thought to himself that if he wasn't considered fierce, then there was no fierce person in the world. Otherwise, why would Tang Yue act like a mouse before a cat whenever she saw him?
"Alright, everyone, stop standing around and let's eat. We can chat while we eat." Seeing that it was almost time, Xiao Yan called everyone to eat.
After taking his seat, Xiao Yan cleared his throat and said in a steady and powerful voice, "Xiao Qi, from now on we are family. If Xiao He bullies you, don't hide it. Just tell us, and your mother and I will definitely stand up for you and support you."
"Once the one-year mourning period is over, we'll have a grand wedding, and we'll make sure you don't suffer the slightest grievance!"
Xiao He frowned upon hearing this, but did not reply.
Wen Qi was truly surprised that Xiao Yan would be so considerate of her. To be honest, she was actually a little afraid of Xiao Yan, after all, he looked upright, unsmiling, and extremely serious.
A slight smile played on her lips, and she felt a sweet warmth in her heart: "Okay, I understand. Thank you, Mom and Dad."
At first, Wenqi was worried that she would find it difficult to say "Mom and Dad" and that it would make the scene awkward, but she didn't expect it to come out so easily.
Perhaps it was the right atmosphere, or perhaps she felt everyone's affection for her, so she wasn't so resistant to some things anymore.
Upon hearing this, Tang's mother's face was filled with surprise and relief. She clapped her hands and exclaimed at the top of her lungs, "This child is so sensible!"
Seeing this, everyone burst into laughter, especially Tang Hui, who couldn't stop laughing and her eyes even became a little moist.
Xiao He watched the scene of fatherly love and filial piety with Wen Qi's soft and sweet voice. A strange feeling welled up in his heart. After staring at her meaningfully for several seconds, he slowly leaned closer and said in a low and slightly teasing tone, "You've got quite a knack for it. Anyone who didn't know better would think you were the biological daughter."
A strange masculine scent wafted from beside her ear, gently entering Wenqi's nose. It was a light, subtle fragrance, not overpowering.
Wen Qi felt her ears burning and subconsciously pursed her lips, not daring to make the slightest movement, not even daring to turn her head. She just stared straight ahead, pretending not to hear Xiao He's words and completely ignoring him.
There were a total of thirty-six dishes on the table, a wide variety of them, which was enough to show how grand the occasion was.
Wenqi doesn't like seafood; it always gives her a stomachache. But all she saw in front of her was a plate of vegetables and seafood. Being new to the place, she was too embarrassed to stand up and pick up any food, so she just stared at the plate of vegetables and ate the whole time.
Sitting to the side, Xiao He appeared nonchalant, but in reality, he kept a close eye on Wen Qi's every move. However, he didn't say a word and remained motionless, like an emotionless robot.
Tang Chao, who was sitting directly opposite her, noticed that she wasn't touching the seafood with her chopsticks. He understood what was going on and considerately stood up to replace the seafood with several plates of meat in front of her: "Xiao Qi, try the beef. It's especially tender."
Wen Qi inwardly praised his gentlemanly manners and quickly expressed her gratitude: "Okay, thank you, brother."
The elders chatted, occasionally asking the younger generation a few questions. Wen Qi, Tang Chao, and Tang Yue also chatted happily and even exchanged contact information.
Xiao He remained aloof and world-weary throughout the familiar conversation between the three and Tang Chao's subtle teasing, refusing to respond at all.
Finally, thanks to the warm care of Tang Chao and Tang Yue, Wen Qi ate quite comfortably, feeling full after only half a bowl of rice.
After the meal, the Tang family left, as it was convenient to visit each other in the same villa area.
While Wen Qi was packing her luggage in her room, Xiao He was called into the study by Xiao Yan and Tang Hui.
Tang Hui said earnestly, "Ahe, now that you and Xiaoqi have registered your marriage, you have to treat her well from now on. Don't always act like a domineering CEO."
"It's one thing in front of outsiders, but Xiaoqi is so much younger than you, so you need to take better care of her. Be more proactive, considerate, and gentle in everything you do."
“Look at your performance today, Mom is not satisfied at all. I showed you the photos first, and you agreed to it yourself. Your dad and I didn’t force you.”
After Tang Hui finished speaking, she looked at her husband, Xiao Yan, who quickly chimed in, "Yes, your mother is right."
Xiao He still respected Tang Hui very much. After pondering for a moment, he spoke with more seriousness: "Yes."
Upon hearing Tang Hui's words, Xiao Yan suddenly realized something. He looked at Xiao He with a slightly disdainful gaze: "Let's sleep in the new house tonight. You're a grown man who got your marriage certificate, but I haven't seen you give Xiao Qi a gift to show your appreciation. Sigh." Xiao Yan shook his head as he spoke, looking like he was disappointed in Xiao He.
Tang Hui also realized what was going on: "That's right, she's much worse than your dad was back then. Alright, go check on Xiaoqi, have some sense, help her with her luggage, and go home early."
Xiao He nodded and left the study. He went up to the third floor and knocked on Wen Qi's door. A playful voice came from inside: "Come in, the door isn't locked."
