She also discovered that the jade bracelet seemed to be changing size along with her wrist; it was a bit large at first, but now, it had become just the right fit.
Could she be seeing things?
"You probably just didn't notice it before, glad you like it," Ye Fan said, watching Bai Susu's delight, his heart filling with joy as well.
Ye Fan gazed earnestly at Bai Susu's stunningly beautiful face, her skin smooth as cream, her brows and eyes like a painting, her pupils like stars, her lips like cherry blossoms—every detail was perfected to the utmost degree. In ancient times, she would have been the sort to cause the downfall of a country.
But he liked it!
"I really like it," Bai Susu said softly, caressing the jade bracelet on her wrist.
She truly liked it a lot.
She wasn't sure if it was an illusion, but the bracelet gave her a strong sense of security, as if it could actually protect her.
"This is actually a pair; I'm wearing the other one." With that, Ye Fan took out the other bracelet and promptly put it on his wrist, then juxtaposed his wrist with the bracelet against Bai Susu's. They looked exceptionally well-matched no matter how one saw it.
Bai Susu's delicate frame trembled slightly as she lifted her head to look at Ye Fan, her eyes seemingly shining with an unusual luster.
Seeing this, Ye Fan stood up, stretched out his index finger, and gently nudged Bai Susu's nose, thinking how adorable she was.
Then, he left the room and entered the living room where there was a set of couple's pajamas. He took the women's pajamas and placed them into Bai Susu's hands.
The only thing left now was the necklace set, of course, this was intended for his parents.
Thinking about this, Ye Fan couldn't help but smile happily.
"Son, what are you grinning about? What's going on, did you win over Susu?" Mother Ye came out of her room just in time to see her silly son grinning foolishly.
So happy—could it be that the girl Susu had agreed to be with her son?
But how come it felt somewhat improbable?
"No, Mom, can't you think about something other than that!" Ye Fan rolled his eyes helplessly.
Why was his mother so anxious?
He was already working hard on it, wasn't he?
Ah, it seemed that if he truly couldn't marry Bai Susu, his mother probably wouldn't recognize him as her son anymore.
In the end, was he really her biological child?
Who treats their own flesh and blood this way?
"You rascal, I'm worried about just this thing right now, don't be upset. If you can marry Susu in this lifetime, it would really be the good fortune of your eight lifetimes. If you can't, I'm not your mom!" Mother Ye burst out in an instant.
This child's words, how they manage to irritate her so.
Upon hearing this, Ye Fan was truly shocked.
Good heavens!
It was really something else.
"Mom, you should know, without a son, where would the daughter-in-law come from?" Ye Fan muttered under his breath, his voice just loud enough that Mother Ye overheard.
"You little brat, you've grown bold, daring to talk back to your mom!" Mother Ye immediately grew angry, looking around for something to grab.
"Mom, stop looking, there's no feather duster here, hehe!" Ye Fan said, chuckling.
He knew that when his mom got anxious, she would look for a feather duster!
Ha ha ha...
Unfortunately, this wasn't their old home; there were no feather dusters here.
Hehe, out of options now, huh.
Watching his mom huffing and puffing, Ye Fan felt profoundly happy. Of course, he also became even more smug.
Thinking of hitting me? No chance!
'Ding, detecting the host's strong request, awarding Mother Ye with a feather duster!'
Fuck!
System, you tricked me!
Damn it, I strongly demand!
The next second, Ye Fan saw a feather duster suddenly appear on the sofa, and his handsome face turned green.
"Isn't the feather duster supposed to be here?" Mother Ye said with a proud smile, not bothering with formalities as she walked over and picked it up.
You little brat, let's see if you're still cocky now.
Hmph!
Come~~ let's loosen up that skin~
......
"Mom, look, this is what I bought for you and dad, one for each of you. These are really effective 'safety and blessing' charms, and also, take a smell, there's a faint fragrance here, which helps with sleep. Dad often can't sleep well because of the stress, right? This is just perfect."
"They say that good jade can nourish a person. You should wear it at all times and not take it off lightly." Ye Fan said, trying to please his mother.
Finally, I'm saved!
I'm almost twenty years old, it would be so embarrassing to be hit by my mom again.
Of course, the most important thing is that Bai Susu and Aunt Mei are here, too.
If I really got hit, I wouldn't be able to show my face in front of them.
Strangely, neither of them came out, as if they knew it wasn't the right time.
This necklace is different from the ones for the kids, it contains a green little stone that seems to exude a strong vitality, the rest are exactly the same.
No doubt, the effect of this little green stone is to emit a faint fragrance that can calm a restless heart.
"That's really nice, okay, you can make your mother happy, and I am indeed pleased," Mother Ye said with a smile, a touch of relief passing through her eyes.
The child has grown up and knows how to be dutiful.
Very good.
But they have aged!
This is something to be happy about.
Similarly, as one gets older, the odds of pondering over random worries increase, yet as long as the children are doing well, they're content.
"As long as you like it. Your son won't pray for anything else, just that you stay healthy and safe, and enjoy life," Ye Fan said, lowering his eyes slightly.
Lowering his eyes was out of fear that Mother Ye might see the tears swirling in his eyes.
"You silly child, you're a father now, yet you act like a little kid. You should know that as parents, all we hope for is our children's happiness. Your dad and I are fine, don't worry," Mother Ye said, gently patting Ye Fan's back.
Bai Susu, meanwhile, was listening to the sounds from the living room, slowly breaking into a smile that was as pure and serene as a blooming pear blossom.
Then, she looked at the children, each sleeping as sweetly as a little piglet.
Being born into such a family, you guys are really lucky.
The warmth she couldn't have, her children now had; that's happiness too.
Looking at the pajamas in front of her, the off-white silk felt slippery and soft to the touch, the material was truly of high quality.
But where on earth did Ye Fan get the money?
She grew up using many luxury products but felt that the silk pajamas before her were far superior to those she had worn before.
Of course, good stuff is naturally not cheap.
Then there are the baby strollers, and what about necklaces and bracelets? All these things cost money, quite a sum of it, no doubt.
With so much money, how on earth did this guy get it?
At this moment, Bai Susu couldn't help but worry.
Could it be that Ye Fan had taken out a loan?
