“Wen Xin, come and have a look. Don’t be shy; we will all be family soon.”

Wei Manqing, who had been sitting silently, also urged Wen Xin, her voice gentle and friendly, as if she had already accepted Wen Xin as part of their family.

Hearing Wei Manqing’s words, Mu Chengxi lifted his gaze towards her. Her attitude surprised Mu Chengxi, as it was quite different from when they had previously encountered Wen Xin.

Wen Xin sat down beside Old Madam Mu, who placed a key in the palm of Wen Xin’s hand with a solemn voice.

“Grandma has thought long and hard, feeling that no gift could be worthy of your lifesaving grace. However, when I saw this item, I immediately felt it suited you. Even if you don’t like it, you must accept it,” the old madam said while looking at Wen Xin with eyes full of affection.

The more she looked at Wen Xin, the more she liked her.

Wen Xin’s delicate, jade-like fingers held the key, and under everyone’s watchful eyes, she opened the gift prepared by the old madam. Upon seeing the contents, she involuntarily held her breath, completely surprised by the preciousness of the gift.

Mu Chengxu, curious about the gift, peered over, and her jaw dropped in astonishment at the sight. Was this gift not excessively generous?

Seeing the expressions on Wen Xin and Mu Chengxu’s faces, Wei Manqing and Mu Jinyan also stood up and walked behind the old madam to catch a glimpse of the mysterious and surprising present.

“This gift, matching Wen Xin’s status, is just right. Grandma might be a bit impatient, but she hopes you will continue to be with Chengxi, to marry him sooner. This is the gift from Grandma, and also the Mu family’s bridal gift to you,” the old madam said, her eyes looking kindly at Wen Xin and patting Wen Xin’s hand gently with her own slightly aged but tender hands.

Wen Xin was frozen to the spot, trying to find a way to refuse the gift, but when the old madam uttered the words ‘bridal gift’, she found herself unable to speak the words of refusal.

To refuse the bridal gift would mean to refuse Mu Chengxi, and since she planned to stay with him, she could not reject this phoenix crown.

The words ‘bridal gift’ also made the usually indifferent and languid Mu Chengxi sitting on the couch tense up. His deep, dark eyes were fixed on Wen Xin, seemingly worried she would utter a refusal.

“I accept this gift, and I ask for Grandma’s care in the future,” Wen Xin’s voice lost its previous coldness, now sounding soft and sweet, like a spring stream gently flowing into everyone’s heart.

Wen Xin looked up, her gaze meeting Mu Chengxi’s excited eyes. Her bright eyes were resolute as she looked at Mu Chengxi. This was the most important decision of her life.

She was willing to give her heart, to be faithful from beginning to end. Mu Chengxi was her love, and she was willing to spend a lifetime by his side.

Turning her gaze back, Wen Xin re-examined the phoenix crown inside the box. The crown, forged from pure gold, was adorned with various precious gemstones.

The pair of phoenixes on the crown seemed to come to life, as if about to take flight, with fine diamonds on the tails that dazzled the eyes.

At the center of the crown sat a massive red diamond, surrounded by pink and yellow diamonds the size of pigeon eggs, exuding nobility and luxury.

The pink and yellow diamonds on the crown, any one of which could shock the world, numbered twelve in total, an extravagant sight to behold.

“Grandma, aren’t you showing too much favoritism? Giving your granddaughter-in-law such a precious bridal gift, I wonder if I will receive such a valuable dowry when I marry!”

Mu Chengxu looked at the sandalwood box containing the phoenix crown, her comment half-joking, overwhelmed by the shock of the gift.

“You better hurry up and find a boyfriend then, and after you have a boyfriend, we can talk about the pretend dowry!”

Old Madam Mu looked at Mu Chengxu, her voice filled with affection. Her most cherished granddaughter’s dowry, how could it be anything less?

“Xiaoxin, this is one of the greeting gifts from Grandma, and I have another gift for you.”

As she spoke, the old madam took out a red velvet pouch from beside her and placed it in Wen Xin’s hand, “This was given to me by Chengxi’s great-grandmother when I married into the Mu family. She told me this must be passed to the wife of the Mu family’s head. Now that you’ve accepted the bridal gift, you must take this bracelet as well. No refusals allowed!”

The old madam placed the red velvet pouch in Wen Xin’s palm, pressing down with both hands, giving her no chance to refuse.

“Take it, we’re all family, after all!” Wei Manqing gently patted Wen Xin’s shoulder from behind, speaking in a soft and tender voice.

Before Wen Xin’s arrival, she had been concerned that she might not take to the rebellious air about Wen Xin, but now it seemed that such a distinctive and endearing girl wasn’t bad at all.

What was most important was that Wen Xin had managed to tame their family’s wild young master, which was quite an accomplishment in her eyes, and she liked that.

“Grandma’s gift is too valuable; it makes mine seem insubstantial. That’s really too much,” Mu Chengxu said half-jokingly as she took out an exquisite box from her handbag, which clearly was expensive, and handed it to Wen Xin.

“The meeting gift from your sister is probably the least valuable; don’t look down on it!”

Wen Xin did not refuse the bracelet from the old madam, placing it on her lap, and then opened the box Mu Chengxu had given her. She immediately recognized it as the latest necklace from the Huoluo brand, her beautiful eyes narrowing slightly.

“Thank you, sister, I really like it.” Wen Xin graciously accepted Mu Chengxu’s gift.

Just as Wen Xin was about to close the necklace box, Mu Chengxu noticed that there was no jewelry on Wen Xin’s neck and stopped her.

“I don’t know what variety this flower is, but the first time I saw it, I thought of you. Let me put it on for you.”

With that, Mu Chengxu took the necklace out of the box, and Wen Xin, without any pretense, lifted her hair, allowing Mu Chengxu to help her put on the necklace.

Wen Xin’s skin was very fair, and the design of the necklace stood out even more against her pale complexion. Mu Chengxu squinted her eyes in satisfaction as she looked at Wen Xin, proud of her choice.

While Mu Chengxu was busy putting the necklace on Wen Xin, Mu Jinyan and Wei Manqing took the opportunity to sit back on the sofa, taking out the gifts they had prepared..
