Even though Xia Yumo wasn't an expert in jewelry, she knew it was very valuable.
She wanted to say it was too expensive and felt a bit embarrassed to take it.
However, if she didn't take it, her birth mother would not feel comfortable either, so she reluctantly took it, promising to give something in return in the future.
"Thank you, Mom, this necklace is really beautiful."
Feeling like her words were a little empty and insincere, she jokingly looked at Gu Junhang and said:
"If only we had gotten married later, I could have worn this necklace from mom on our wedding day. I'm sure I would have dazzled."
Gu Junhang laughed and rubbed her head. "It's my fault, I was too impatient."
This back and forth teasing made the atmosphere warm and intimate again.
Chu Peixian's eyes brimmed with tears of happiness. She knew her daughter wasn't greedy, so she had initially thought Xia Yumo might refuse the necklace.
