Chapter 413: Chapter 413: Jade Nourishes the Wearer, and I Like It
Time had not left many traces on her, instead, she had become even more graceful and moving.
With just one glance, Shen Cheng guessed her identity.
Because those expressive eyes were a striking resemblance to the man beside her.
Wen Wan approached and embraced Shi Yu, then shifted her gaze to Shen Cheng’s face.
Though both were women, Wen Wan was still stunned by Shen Cheng’s beauty for a moment.
She didn’t hide the admiration in her eyes and praised, "My son has really good taste."
Like Shen Cheng, without saying much or asking questions, she was certain of each other’s identity.
Wen Wan smiled, casually took out an exquisite box from her bag, and handed it to Shen Cheng, "Open it and have a look."
Shen Cheng didn’t refuse; she gently opened the box.
A pure white Mutton Fat Jade Bracelet was inside, delicately small and of quality that could be considered top-notch, obviously carrying a hefty price tag.
"This is our family heirloom, left by my grandmother, now given to you."
Wen Wan said, then very thoughtfully took out the bracelet and pulled Shen Cheng’s hand to put it on for her.
"You’re not to wear it."
Shi Yu said in a cold voice to stop her.
Wen Wan and Shen Cheng turned their heads to look at him almost at the same time.
Shi Yu’s eyes narrowed dangerously, "What if that thing injures my wife?"
Shen Cheng: "..."
Wen Wan: "..."
Just as Shi Yu was about to reach out to take the bracelet, Shen Cheng was one step ahead and slipped the bracelet onto her wrist.
The cool touch of the mutton jade was comfortable, and it fit perfectly as if it was tailor-made for her.
Its lustrous sheen made her already fair skin look even more delicate and touchable.
Seeing that she had already put it on, Shi Yu had no choice but to let it go.
"Thank you, Auntie."
Shen Cheng said quite naturally.
The hand Shi Yu had wrapped around her waist tightened slightly, and he whispered, "Call her mom."
Shen Cheng reflexively arched an eyebrow, "Where is there such a young mom?"
Shi Yu: "..."
What kind of strange logic is that?
However, Wen Wan just smiled, "Call me whatever you like, don’t be so formal."
Yet, to her surprise, Shen Cheng spoke up the next moment, "Mother-in-law."
Shi Yu: "..."
Wen Wan nodded with satisfaction, seemingly touched by that calling of "mother-in-law."
After getting into the car, Shi Yu and Shen Cheng sat in the back seat, with Wen Wan sitting in the front passenger seat.
In the back, Shen Cheng whispered in Shi Yu’s ear, "Mother-in-law is so gentle and approachable, how come you are so hard to deal with? Overbearing and domineering."
Shi Yu frowned coldly, "You have an opinion?"
Shen Cheng huffed a little and turned to look out the window, too lazy to bother with him.
Wen Wan saw the interaction between the two from the rearview mirror, her face smiling, very pleased.
After a while, Shi Yu suddenly picked up Shen Cheng’s hand to look at it and frowned, "Could this hard object hurt you?"
"It won’t."
As Shen Cheng internally sighed at his overprotectiveness, she also felt a warm feeling inside.
She curved her lips, "And jade nourishes the wearer, I like it."
Shi Yu: "..."
The car drove smoothly, and Wen Wan, seated in the passenger seat, kept a smile on her face as she gazed at the landscape outside.
Shi Yu rested his elbow on the car window, eyes half-closed, suddenly asked, "Shall we go?"
Shen Cheng knew he wasn’t really asking a question, so she didn’t have much of a reaction.
Wen Wan glanced at him through the rearview mirror, a light smile on her face, "We will go, not going would be like admitting defeat."
Shen Cheng didn’t know what they were talking about and didn’t intend to ask further, simply closed her eyes to rest.
Shi Yu looked at her and, stretching out his long arm, drew her close to lean against him.
