Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

While Du Xia made herself some food, Xia Yan opened her laptop and looked through the details of her previous conversation with Jiang Tong.

Xia Yan had just checked her email when she received a new contract signing. She thought it was probably the thing that Jiang Tong had mentioned.

She opened the email and saw that it was indeed a mysterious customer’s order. The customer would usually place an order every two to three months since Xia Yan became an independent jeweler three years ago.

Xia Yan’s jewelry was mainly for women. There were bracelets, necklaces, and rings. Xia Yan was in charge of the designs and had even become the chief designer of a famous jewelry company, Feier.

Xia Yan opened the order’s contents and looked at the customer’s requests. The order was particular this time as the customer wanted a wedding ring. Xia Yan couldn’t help but feel curious. ‘Is this person getting married?’

If it was the customer’s wedding ring, the person’s preferences and deadline were not reasonable. Xia Yan immediately took her phone and contacted Jiang Tong.

After discussing some details, Jiang Tong decided to contact the customer and confirm his requests. Although Xia Yan was an independent designer, Jiang Tong was in charge of contacting the clients since she was better at communicating with them.

Jiang Tong once complained, saying that if she aged quickly, it would be because she had served Xia Yan for so long. But since Designer Yan had unique designs and styles, she was well-known in the industry.

After confirming the order, Xia Yan opened her design book and prepared to complete a new project that she had started two days ago. If she hadn’t married into the Mo family so suddenly, she would have remained in the design studio.

Xia Yan was busy drawing her design when someone opened the room door. She was shocked as she held the pen in her hand. She looked at the person who had just barged in.

“Xia Yan, I have good news for you!” Mo Pei barged in with a smile.

Xia Yan remained seated by the bedside in a daze as she held her design book, looking up at Mo Pei.

Mo Pei was stunned before scratching the back of his head in embarrassment. “I-I’m sorry. I’m just so used to entering this room that I…”

Xia Yan smiled and said, “What’s the good news?”

Only then did Mo Pei remember why he had entered the room. He squatted beside Xia Yan and said excitedly, “My grandmother will be here next Tuesday, and she mentioned she would host a banquet at the Zhuang family’s restaurant. You have to go with her!”

Xia Yan blinked and looked at Mo Pei in puzzlement. “She’s hosting a banquet?”

“That’s right! I remember you saying that you wanted to see Grandmother. Since that’s the case, you might no longer have to go through the deep mountains and forests!” Mo Pei said as he shook his head.

Mo Pei referred to the Mo family’s ancestral manor that occupied half of Qingling Mountain when he said “deep mountains and forests.”

Xia Yan looked at Mo Pei gratefully. “Thank you for thinking of inviting me. But I don’t think your cousin would want to take me there.”

“Why not? Is it because you’re ugly?” Mo Pe frowned and looked at Xia Yan.

However, Mo Pei’s unintentionally exact words made the atmosphere awkward. He cleared his throat and said, “T-That’s not what I meant. I-I wanted to say…”

Xia Yan interrupted, “It’s okay, Mo Pei. I’m used to it. That’s probably why your cousin isn’t satisfied with me as his wife.”

Mo Pei frowned and pondered before saying, “My cousin wouldn’t judge others by appearance.”

Xia Yan raised her eyebrows, indicating that she didn’t believe Mo Pei. But Mo Pei sighed and sat beside his sister-in-law. “At least he wasn’t like this in the past.”

Xia Yan turned to face Mo Pei. Considering what Mo Pei said, Mo He must’ve gone through a change before meeting Xia Yan.

Mo Pei didn’t intend to reveal more details about Mo He. Instead, he turned his head and looked at Xia Yan’s design book. “What were you up to just now? I saw you drawing when I came in.”

Xia Yan closed her book and narrowed her eyes. “I was just doodling.”

Mo Pei noticed that Xia Yan wasn’t willing to share what she drew, so he shrugged in disappointment. “Oh right, I wondered what gift I should get for Grandmother when she returns. You’re a woman, Xia Yan. Can you suggest something?”

Xia Yan looked at Mo Pei and couldn’t decide if she should laugh or cry. “Although I am a woman, there is an age gap between your grandmother and me. Also, I’m not familiar with Grandmother.”

“You’re right!” Mo Pei frowned and pondered. Then he clapped his hands and said, “Grandmother likes Magnolias if that’s something worth mentioning. I remember my uncle planting an entire row of Magnolia’s at the back of the mountain just to please Grandmother!”
