Chapter 298: She Was the Highlight of His Life (7)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Si Jingyu’s tears began to fall as she heard the warm, familiar voice of her mother-in-law.

In fact, as much as she was making concessions for her mother-in-law, wasn’t her mother-in-law doing the same for her?

Having come from a village, her mother-in-law would always haggle when she bought groceries, even for a few cents’ discount. And whenever her mother-in-law bought roadside clothes for her, she would always feel the material before telling the seller, “My daughter-in-law is from the city and she’s really delicate. If your clothes are not of good quality, I won’t buy it.”

And now, her mother-in-law had gone so far as to buy her lobsters...

Si Jingyu could almost imagine the scene at the dinner table already. With a table full of dishes, but perhaps only with a single lobster dish, her mother-in-law would bat away the chopsticks of her father-in-law and tell him, “This is for Jingyu, not you! Eating cabbages would be enough for someone low like you, but Jingyu has expensive taste because she’s from the city!”

Her throat tightened. With a sob in her voice, she said, “Mother...”

The voice on the other end paused for a moment before resuming with a sobbing tone. The words spoken became unclear and muffled. “Jingyu, I know how Jinyan’s been letting you down over this past half a year. Don’t worry, I’m on your side, so come home, okay? I miss you. If he likes to be outside so much, just let him be! The dinner tonight is a family event, so I won’t allow unrelated people to show their faces. And even if she has the nerve to appear, I’ll whack her with the bottom of my shoe! I haven’t seen you in half a year, Jingyu. Are you avoiding me? Come back, please.”

Heavy, large teardrops fell from Si Jingyu’s face as she held the cell phone. Thinking of the relationship she had been having with her mother-in-law over the past few years, she relented. “Okay.”

Si Jingyu put down the phone, then turned to look at Zhuang Nainai.

Zhuang Nainai felt as if she had done something wrong. “Sister, I...”

“Nainai, thank you.” Si Jingyu smiled. “I was wrong. My mother-in-law hates her so much. How would she allow her in the house?”

Zhuang Nainai was stunned. “What?”

Did her rashness in picking up the phone help to resolve a misunderstanding between Si Jingyu and Shi Jinyan?

If this was a misunderstanding, could it be that the relationship between Bai Yue and Shi Jinyan was not as what they were imagining it to be?

Casting her thoughts to the few times she had met Shi Jinyan, Zhuang Nainai felt that he actually looked like a good person.

With this sixth sense, Zhuang Nainai then softly persuaded Si Jingyu and said, “Sister, if she can deceive you once, she can deceive you again. You should have a proper chat with Brother-in-law.

Si Jingyu nodded.

She washed up, changed into festive-looking clothing, then retrieved a gown from the drawers that she had prepared beforehand. It was only then that she left the house.

As Zhuang Nainai watched her back view, she silently wished for her to be able to resolve all the misunderstandings.

For a man to be liked by Si Jingyu was no easy task. And so even if she did not trust her sixth sense, she should trust Si Jingyu’s eye.

Having thought this, Zhuang Nainai breathed a sigh of relief. Casting a glance at the master bedroom, she wondered if she should tell this piece of good news to Si Zhengting.

At the Si residence...

The food was cold by the time Si Jingyu arrived.

But Mother Shi was highly enthusiastic, bringing her in while calling for her husband to heat up the food.

Shi Jinyan made a move to take Si Jingyu’s purse. Si Jingyu was about to refuse when Mother Shi pulled at her. “Jingyu, I’ve got it all cleared up. Jinyan has stopped contacting that woman already. Trust him just this once!”
