Chapter 1968: A Welcome Gift
Elder Wu took a bracelet out of a box. It was made of emerald green gla.s.s and looked gorgeous.
“Lil Yun, this is one of the dowry treasures that your G.o.dgrandmother treasured for decades. Your grandmother died early. Before she died, she told me that in the future, when our grandsons and granddaughters get married, I should give one of her dowries out. Even though you’re not married yet, you’re already engaged to Jingyan. Take this as an engagement gift from Grandpa.”
Szs Lingyun quickly stood up and waved her hands. “Grandpa, this is too valuable. I can’t accept it!”
She had never experienced the warmth of familial love since she was young. She was already very grateful to have been able to become a member of this family. She had a new family who loved and protected her.
This bracelet was obviously a cherished item. When she heard that it was her G.o.dgrandmother’s dowry, Sze Lingyun refused to accept it.
Elder Wu said with a hurt expression, “Little Girl Yun, you’re now our Wu family’s granddaughter. Grandpa is merely giving you an engagement gift. If you don’t accept it, you’re looking down on my gift and are unwilling to accept this token of familial love from the Wu family.”
“I’m not… I...”
Sze Lingyun looked at Nangong Nuan and Chi Yang for help. Who could have guessed that the two of them would s.h.i.+ft their gazes away from her and look at each other instead when she looked at them? Then, Chi Yang picked up a piece of cheese lobster meat and put it into Nangong Nuannuan’s mouth. Nuannuan gave him a beautiful smile that made her eyes curl up. She did not have any intention of paying attention to Sze Lingyun’s plea at all.
“Since you’re not looking to offend your new family, please accept this. This is a gift from Grandpa. I’ve met Jingyan a few times, and he’s a very good boy. His parents are also very easy to get along with. I hope that you two can stay together and live happily ever after.”
The old man’s words of blessing had already been uttered, so Sze Lingyun could not refuse anymore. She could only watch helplessly as her grandpa put the bracelet on her wrist.
...
Her eyes instantly turned red.
Ever since she was young, she had never experienced being loved and cared for by her family, but at this moment, she finally felt it.
Even though the Wu family did not have the slightest bit of blood relations.h.i.+p to her, she truly felt the fatherly love that Elder Wu was showing her.
She swore that in the future, she would be filial to her grandpa and take care of everyone in her new family!
“Thank you, Grandpa!”
Looking at the girl who was moved to tears just from a bracelet, Elder Wu felt an inexplicable pain in his heart.
He knew that his Yunyun must have had a hard life at home in the past. That was why she was so touched by his small gift.
This made him feel a wave of indescribable anger, but he could not think of a solution at the moment.
He was only Yun’er’s G.o.dgrandfather. No matter how rich and powerful the Wu family was, he could not go to Yun’er’s home to teach her parents a lesson. However..
“Girl, if you are wronged at home in the future, just tell Grandpa. Even though Grandpa can’t go to your home to teach your parents a lesson, I’ll definitely find a way to help you.”
“Yes!” Sze Lingyun pursed her lips tightly and suppressed the tears that were about to fall from her eyes. She nodded in agreement.
“Yunyun, this is a gift from Second Uncle.”
Wu Jingcheng then took out a box that was much bigger than Elder Wu’s.
