The Lu family!
After finishing the acupuncture on Jin Tong, Jiang Nuan looked at her rosy, glowing face. She had gained quite a bit of weight recently.
"Today is the last needle. Tomorrow morning, go to the hospital for an X-ray. The tumor should be gone," Jiang Nuan said, starting to pack up her medical kit.
Jin Tong slowly sat up, looking at the indifferent Jiang Nuan. Apart from being unsociable, there was not a trace of pride in her calm eyes.
Jin Tong's gaze flickered. Thinking about her upcoming plans, her mood was complex.
Jiang Nuan was different from other excellent children. It was evident that she truly didn't care about fame or fortune, only wanting to live a quiet life.
"Thank you! Nuannuan," Jin Tong said sincerely.
Jiang Nuan glanced at her indifferently, finally seeing her sincerity, not awkwardness as before.
"No need. My responsibility has been fulfilled. We won't have many opportunities to meet in the future. A reminder: take good care of yourself, eat on time, don't stay up late, and avoid cold foods."
"Okay!" Jin Tong nodded slightly, a complex expression appearing on her dignified and elegant face.
Jiang Nuan finished packing the medical kit and walked out with it.
Jin Tong took a deep breath, biting her lip, and thought of her daughter's actions with a hint of worry.
Jiang Nuan returned to the front hall. After putting down the medical kit, she washed her hands before going to the dining room. She saw Song Yanqing there as well.
Song Yanqing wore a tight black dress, her slender figure and graceful posture were perfect. Her delicate collarbone was exposed, her long hair cascaded over her shoulders, and her makeup was exquisite. Every movement exuded mature charm.
She sat next to Mu Jiuchen.
Mu Jiuchen's expression was cold.
And her mother's face was stern.
"Nuannuan, you're back." Song Yanqing greeted Jiang Nuan enthusiastically, seemingly oblivious to the expressions of Mu Jiuchen and Jin Yan.
"Mm!" Jiang Nuan walked over, looked at her mother, and smiled, "Mom, let's eat dinner first."
Jin Yan: "Mm!"
A few more smiles appeared on her face.
"Nuannuan, here's your favorite blanched shrimp, and the salt-baked chicken. Eat more. You've been coming home for dinner these past few days. I'll help you gain weight within a month."
Jiang Nuan smiled and said, "Mom, I have a body that's prone to being thin, I can't get fat."
"I've stewed some longan chicken soup. You'll have some later. After a month, you'll have gained at least ten pounds."
Jiang Nuan: "..."
She didn't speak, lowering her head to eat the food her mother served.
Jin Yan looked at Song Yanqing and said, "Yanqing, your mother is also well. You can both go back tomorrow. As for your grandmother, she can stay as long as she likes."
A hint of resentment flashed in Jin Yan's eyes. Because these people were present, her husband and son avoided her and didn't come home.
She had been working hard to support everything during this time.
All ungrateful people.
When Song Yanqing heard her aunt asking them to leave, her expression turned displeased. "Aunt, I'm sorry, I've caused you trouble here."
Jin Yan said unceremoniously, "It is quite troublesome. You want to stay here, and you even bring friends over to play. This is not your home, after all.
It's one thing to bring friends over, but it's another to take the clothes Xiao Jiu prepared for Nuannuan to wear. Isn't this going a bit too far? My daughter doesn't come back often, but that doesn't mean I haven't noticed."
Song Yanqing: "..."
She put down her chopsticks, her face suddenly losing all color.
Mu Jiuchen frowned, a cold glint in his eyes.
Jiang Nuan glanced at Song Yanqing indifferently, "Did you go to my room?"
Song Yanqing looked at her apologetically, "Nuannuan, I just returned to the country and hadn't had time to buy clothes yet while taking care of Mom. One day I was touring the villa, and I accidentally saw your wardrobe, so I took a few pieces to change into. It's all my fault, I forgot to tell Aunt, making her misunderstand me like this."
"In that case, how much did those clothes cost? I'll pay you for them. Although we are family, we should still be clear about things."
Jin Yan glanced at her. If things were clear, would she have taken Nuannuan's clothes?
And she picked the best ones. They were all limited editions, worth seven figures.
Jiang Nuan glanced at Mu Jiuchen, "Husband, where are the receipts? Give them to her later."
Mu Jiuchen: "I'll have Xiao Fan look for them."
Song Yanqing looked at Jiang Nuan in surprise, a sense of humiliation rising from the depths of her heart.
Those clothes were all new, none of them had been worn.
They were cousins; did she really have to be so serious about wearing a few of her clothes?
Moreover, with her style of dressing, she probably wouldn't wear those clothes even once in a few months.
"Nuannuan, I'm your cousin. I was just being polite. Do you have to be so serious?" Song Yanqing asked with a smile.
Jiang Nuan ate a piece of chicken before saying, "There's something you haven't understood clearly. If you tell me, I don't mind you taking them to wear, but you took them without permission, and the nature of it is different, understand!"
Song Yanqing: "..."
She bit her lip, swallowed the humiliation and anger in her heart, and smiled, "Sorry, Nuannuan, you weren't home a few days ago, so I took a few of your clothes to wear. I'm telling you now, please don't be angry. I really didn't bring any spare clothes."
Jiang Nuan: "..."
She picked up the hot water and took a sip.
Having said all that, if she continued to pursue it, it would be her fault.
Besides, this woman was a bit too clever. She really didn't take her small schemes and tricks seriously.
Just a few pieces of clothes!
"Go ahead and wear them. Anyway, I'm spoiled by my husband and family, and I have endless clothes to wear. But let this be the last time."
Song Yanqing praised herself for her cleverness and quick thinking.
But she was also angry about Jiang Nuan's flaunting.
Those clothes of Jiang Nuan were all limited edition, diamond-level clothing.
Each piece was very expensive.
If she had taken the best ones and really had to pay, it would be tens of millions.
The Jin family was not rich enough now. Every penny of the Jin family had to be spent on crucial matters.
Mu Jiuchen saw his wife slightly frown, but he didn't say anything.
Jin Yan, seeing Song Yanqing's tendency to exploit loopholes, also endured it. She cautioned herself inwardly, it would be better after tomorrow.
Then her ears could finally be quiet.
"Nuannuan, eat quickly," Jin Yan couldn't help but serve her daughter more food.
"Thank you, Mom, you eat too."
"Mm-hmm, Mom just sleeps all day. Mom isn't hungry, you eat quickly." Jin Yan kept serving Jiang Nuan.
Meanwhile, Song Yanqing looked at Mu Jiuchen, who was being neglected by his mother-in-law, and smiled as she put a piece of chicken into his bowl.
"Ninth Master, you eat more too," Song Yanqing said softly, feeling very happy just sitting next to him. It would be even happier if she could become his wife.
She also deliberately brushed her leg against Mu Jiuchen's leg and gave him a gentle smile.
She would get closer to Mu Jiuchen step by step and win his love.
She had already worn the clothes he bought for her, he was really generous. Jiang Nuan didn't deserve to enjoy all of this.
She, a pampered lady, was the woman most qualified to enjoy all of this.
The obvious flirtation made Mu Jiuchen's whole body feel disgusted. He jumped up in revulsion.
Jiang Nuan and Jin Yan looked up at him in surprise.
