Jing Muchen drove back to the Jing family’s villa.

The members of the Jing family were having dinner. Seeing Jing Muchen entered the dining room, Aunt Hui quickly added a set of tableware.

Old Mr. Jing took a sip of his soup and said happily, “A Chen, your mother has discussed the wedding date with Zhang Luoya’s parents today. At first, they wanted it to be on June 16th, but Yan Yan’s birthday is coming soon. So they have agreed that your wedding will be at the Mid-autumn Festival. What do you think?”

Jing Muchen picked up a shrimp ball with his chopsticks and put it into his mouth. After chewing for a while, he raised his dark eyes and said, “It’s up to you.”

Jing Shaofan looked at the indifference on his face and sighed.

Li Manting smiled and said, “Son, don’t worry. I’ll take care of everything about your wedding. It will definitely be splendid, better than your brother’s wedding.”

Jing Shaofan cast a sidelong glance at Li Manting. She shouldn’t have mentioned it. In the Jing family, almost no one talked about Li Muchen’s marriage. After all, it was ominous to mention someone who had died at an early age because of dystocia.

Jing Muchen didn’t have any particular feelings about this topic. He just nodded and said, “Thank you, Mom.”

Li Manting’s eyes reddened upon hearing his words.

She married into the Jing family when she was twenty years old for the sake of her own family. To show her gratitude to Old Mr. Jing for helping the Li family, she devoted almost all of her life to the Jing family.

After getting married to Jing Shaofan, Old Mrs. Jing suffered from severe rheumatism and was bedridden for a long time. It was she who took care of her mother-in-law every day. Later on, Old Mrs. Jing passed away, and Old Mr. Jing became short-tempered. She continued living a hard life.

They lived in such a big house, and Jing Shaofan was a workaholic. He had always been respectful to her but never had any sweet talks with her. Li Manting had spent all her life taking care of the men in the Jing family.

Now, she had a naughty but cute grandson. Soon, Jing Muchen, who made her worried the most, would get married. She felt that her life was complete.

Jing Shaofan looked at Li Manting and sighed. He put a piece of vegetable into her bowl and said, “Eat more.”

Li Manting nodded, picked up the vegetable with her chopsticks, and put it into her mouth.

When Su Ruowan took Jiu Jiu home after work, she found that some men were moving the furniture next door.

Surprised, she stopped one of the men and asked, “Has someone bought this unit? Or someone will rent it?”

She was the previous owner of that apartment. But after giving birth, she sold it at a very low price, including all the furniture, and went back to her hometown.

After a year, she had to come back to D City again. She didn’t have enough money to buy it back, so she ended up renting Room 502.

In the past few years, Room 501 had been vacant. But now… Had a rich man bought it?

The man, who was sweating profusely, replied, “I don’t know. I’m only responsible for moving the furniture.”

Su Ruowan noticed that the furniture was all brand new and luxurious. She got more confused.

On the other hand, Jiu Jiu clapped her hands happily. “Mommy, we will have a new neighbor. Will there be children to play with me in the future?”

Looking at Jiu Jiu’s happy face, Su Ruowan couldn’t help but feel a little guilty. She was not good at socializing, and she didn’t have many friends. Jiu Jiu’s childhood had been so lonely. Fortunately, she made friends with Jing Yanxi recently. Otherwise, the little girl could only stay at home and play with her dolls when she had to go to work.

Su Ruowan smiled at her daughter, opened the door, and entered.

Outside, the noise of moving lasted for a while and finally stopped.

Strangely, although the furniture had been moved into the house, no one moved in. As time went by, Su Ruowan forgot about it.

The second day of July was Jing Yanxi’s birthday.

A few days ago, he had made some invitation cards. He asked Li Muchen about it and got permission to invite guests by himself.

Actually, he only wanted to invite Su Ruowan and Jiu Jiu. He felt shy to admit that.

But since he couldn’t write many words yet, he had no other choice but to ask Li Muchen’s help in writing on his pink invitation cards. He only wrote “Wan Wan” and “Jiu Jiu” at the beginning of two cards.

When he was satisfied with the invitation cards, he handed one to Jiu Jiu. Jiu Jiu patted her chest and said, “I will definitely come.”

Jing Yanxi took another invitation card and gave it to Su Ruowan. He then said expectantly, “Wan Wan, come to my birthday party!”

Su Ruowan accepted the invitation card and looked at the venue. It was the address of the Jing family’s villa.

She pursed her lips and said embarrassedly, “Yan Yan, I… I’m sorry, I can’t go.”

Jing Yanxi opened his mouth wide, his eyes full of disappointment. “Why?”

He held Su Ruowan’s hand and swayed it back and forth like a spoiled child. “Wan Wan, please come! Jiu Jiu has agreed. You have to come together. We will eat delicious cakes. Great-grandpa’s chef is really good at cooking.”

Su Ruowan frowned and said, “I really want to, but I can’t.” She thought for a while and added, “I have something very important to do on that day.”

She didn’t want to let him down, but there was no way she would show up in the Jing family’s villa. If she went there with Jiu Jiu, she might be able to deceive Jing Muchen but not Li Manting.

Tears welled up in Jing Yanxi’s big eyes. And it made Su Ruowan feel guilty and distressed. So she had to say, “Well, I’ll prepare a gift for you and let Jiu Jiu take it and give it to you, okay?”

“But I also want you to come,” Jing Yanxi insisted.

“Yan Yan!” Hearing a man’s voice, Su Ruowan looked up and saw Li Muchen standing at the top of the stairs.

She knew that he was Jing Muchen’s brother, but it was her first time to see him.

He was as tall as Jing Muchen, but he looked more serious. At this moment, he frowned and looked at Jing Yanxi seriously. It made him look tough, not as reserved as Jing Muchen. But obviously, they both inherited Li Manting’s beauty genes. If they stood next to each other, one could clearly sec the similarity between the two of them.

Fortunately, when Su Ruowan married Jing Muchen five years ago, she only met Li Manting once, and that was before she gave birth. Therefore, Li Muchen didn’t know her. He didn’t know that she was actually Jing Yanxi’s biological mother..
