The fiery sun scattered on the streets, and everywhere seemed to be dyed with a layer of gold.
It was warm but overly dazzling, but the golden color was very comfortable to look at.
Sitting in the car, Xunmi was a little nervous, which was rare.
If she had known earlier, she wouldn't have made a fuss with that big bad wolf Mu Yi yesterday. Otherwise, she might have been able to escape today.
She hadn't been so nervous when she met his parents in the past.
Sigh. It was probably because of her reputation. After all … it was really too famous. _ (: з ̄ ∠) _
She naturally hoped that her husband's parents would like her. She didn't want to make things difficult for her husband, and they wouldn't look at her differently.
In the end, she still cared a lot. After all, he was her husband.
The Mu family was also very lively today because they heard that Mu Yi was finally bringing someone back. They were very excited.
Bai Wenxu was woken up by his mother early in the morning, and she also dragged Jian Ziling over to join in the fun.
Seeing that their aunt and uncle were restless and kept looking outside, Bai Wenxu and Jian Ziling looked at each other and remained silent.
The two of them were probably the only people here who knew who their cousin would bring back.
Although Mrs. Mu was already in her forties, she looked very young in her thirties because of her good maintenance.
Mr. Mu had a dignified aura. People from the military all had the characteristics of a soldier.
The usually graceful and steady Mrs. Mu and the strict and steady Mr. Mu were a little out of place at this moment.
When Xunmi came in with Mu Yi, the two of them, who were already restless, stood up excitedly.
Their son looked young, but he was almost thirty. How could his parents not be anxious when he didn't have a companion by his side?
Especially when he was a soldier. Once he went to the battlefield, it would be a battle of life and death. No one could be sure.
They thought that if their son had a lover, he would worry about them.
In the future, he would be more cautious on the battlefield and work hard to live for himself, his lover, and his child.
'But 26 and almost 30 … Is that a rounding error?'
If Mu Yi knew, he would definitely roll his eyes at his parents speechlessly.
"Why does she look so familiar to me?" Madam Bai, who was also Bai Wenxu's mother, stared at Xunmi's face and frowned.
She was two years younger than Mama Mu, but she looked about the same age as Mama Mu. She was wearing a dark red cheongsam, which made her already plump figure look even more … fleshy.
Bai Wenxu averted his gaze. He would definitely not answer this question.
His mother had a lot of opinions about Xunmi. She felt that Xunmi was not content with her family and seduced men everywhere.
When she found out that he had gone to see Xia Xunmi, she scolded him when she got home.
Mu Yi ignored Mrs. Bai's question and brought Xunmi to his parents.
"Father, Mother, this is Xun 'er."
Mama Mu and Papa Mu smiled and waited for him to continue. Then, they realized that their son had no intention of saying anything else after that. _ (: з ̄ ∠) _
Xunmi secretly pinched Mu Yi's arm. This guy was too unreliable.
"Uncle, Auntie, nice to meet you. I'm Xia Xunmi." Forget it, what was to come would come.
"Xia Xunmi, you're that Xia Xunmi." The first to scream was not Papa Mu and Mama Mu, but Mrs. Bai, who had been confused from the beginning.
"… If you're talking about the famous Xunmi in the capital, then you're probably talking about me."
Xunmi replied embarrassedly. She felt sad in her heart. She felt that clearing her name was really a problem.
"You …" Mrs. Bai wanted to say something but was stopped by Bai Wenxu.
"Cousin, you're finally willing to bring her back. Congratulations."
Bai Wenxu changed the topic and sincerely congratulated him.
This beautiful flower was still plucked away by someone.
When those young masters in the capital found out, they would probably treat his cousin as a public enemy.
Mu Yi nodded happily. "Congratulations to you too."
Both of them had a tacit understanding and each had their own congratulations.
Although Papa Mu and Mama Mu were surprised at the other party's name at first, they quickly calmed down and looked at the other party seriously.
How could they not know Xia Xunmi's name? Sometimes, old friends would ask her out to play chess or go shopping.
They would often overhear or hear their children complaining about who fought with whom today, or what stupid things they did yesterday.
Among them, the name Xia Xunmi was indispensable. Or, Xia Xunmi seduced someone again. They had heard so many times that their ears were about to grow calluses.
Papa Mu and Xia Qingan were teammates and naturally had a good relationship. It was just that they were not in the same courtyard.
So no matter what outsiders said about Xia Xunmi, they did not have much of a reaction.
Now that they saw the real person, both of them felt strange.
With this appearance, she could attract people's attention without saying much. If she really hooked her finger, those men would probably go up to her voluntarily.
Xunmi tightened her grip on Mu Yi's arm, feeling very nervous.
What did Uncle and Auntie mean? Did they not like her?
She lowered her eyelashes sadly to hide the emotions inside.
For a moment, the atmosphere froze again. No one spoke and it was very awkward.
"I say, Miss Xia, are you not leaving yet? Are you going to stay for lunch? Look, no one welcomes you."
Mrs. Bai said sarcastically. As a woman, she just did not like this vixen.
If Xia Qingan's position was not higher than her husband's, she would not have agreed to the engagement back then.
In the end, when they grew up, the other party poured so much dirty water on their family. She even wanted to marry Wen Xu. Dream on.
It was not easy for her son to find a lover. She thought that he would not have anything to do with Xunmi, but the other party actually hooked up with her sister's child.
Her sister was soft-hearted, but she was not so easy to talk to.
Xunmi's face froze for a moment. She seemed to be really annoying.
Mu Yi held Xunmi's hand and patted it gently. "Dad, Mom, do you think so too?"
"This … this …" Mama Mu hesitated and shook her head.
Actually, she was still a little bothered. But looking at the girl in front of her, she did not seem to be the kind of wild flower who would seduce men everywhere.
"Sister."
"Mom." Mrs. Bai had just spoken when she was stopped by Bai Wenxu.
"Xunmi, I'm sorry. I apologize to you on behalf of my mother. She only heard it from others and did not know the truth. I hope you don't mind."
Bai Wenxu pulled his mother over and asked Jian Ziling to stop her and not make a scene.
Xunmi shook her head gently. "I'm sorry to disturb you. I'll leave first. I hope you won't be unhappy because of me."
She nodded politely to Mr. and Mrs. Mu, let go of Mu Yi's hand and turned to leave quickly.
Mu Yi waited until Xunmi walked out of the door before he spoke.
"You have disappointed me." Without hesitation, he chased after the person who had left.
At first, he did not speak because he thought that his parents would not be so superficial. They were both people who had experienced all kinds of storms. How could they not see a person's character?
