Chapter 18: Kick out the white moonlight, the Best Actor is mine! -18

"But……"

Mu Wanwan frowned, feeling very conflicted. She firmly believed that taking money from the elderly was inappropriate.

After all, they are still young and can earn more wealth through their own efforts.

“Hey, honey, you don’t know how pitiful I was when I was a child. I was a left-behind child living in the city. My parents gave me almost nothing except money.”

So money is just an external thing to them. Just think of it as a simple gift from your mother-in-law to your daughter-in-law, don't feel guilty." Gu Zhishen explained patiently, while gently coaxing her.

Mu Wanwan felt a little more relaxed after hearing his words, but she was still somewhat hesitant.

At that moment, she casually asked, "How much money did you get?" She was wondering if it was a hundred million. However, Gu Zhishen didn't think it through and replied directly, "It should be a few million!"

Hearing this number, Mu Wanwan became even more determined not to accept the money. "So much! Then I absolutely cannot accept it," she said firmly.

Seeing her insistence, Gu Zhishen couldn't help but feel anxious.

He knew his mother's personality well; if the money wasn't delivered, she would definitely blame him.

So he pleaded in a pitiful tone, "Wife, please, please take it. Otherwise, when I get home, my mother will find out that her money wasn't given away and she'll skin me alive."

His voice was full of pleading, making it hard to refuse.

"Then I'll keep it for now."

"Thank you, my dear wife."

Gu Zhishen pulled Mu Wanwan into his arms, a satisfied smile on his face.

After the two left, Gu's father's expression improved a lot, but his smile was still extremely forced. Gu's mother quickly tugged at her husband's sleeve, "Hurry up and take out the gift you prepared for your daughter-in-law."

Mr. Gu took out two sets of keys. “Wanwan, this is a small token of my appreciation. One set of keys is for a villa in the east of the city, which is registered in your name. It’s not considered marital property. If you ever get divorced, you can keep these things for protection.”

Gu's mother stomped on her husband's instep, "Can't you speak properly? What divorce?"

Gu's father grimaced in pain, and Gu's mother took Wanwan's hand.

"Wanwan, don't worry about him. He's just a big mouth and doesn't know how to talk. You and Ashen will definitely be together for a long time. Keep your things. If Ashen bullies you, don't let him ride in your car, and you can kick him out of the house!"

Gu Zhishen feigned surprise and said, "Mom and Dad, I'm your biological son, aren't I?"

Gu's father jokingly said, "From now on, Wanwan will be my biological daughter. You, an outsider, can step aside."

He pretended to be hurt and leaned against Mu Wanwan, saying, "Wife, from now on I will rely on you to live in the Gu family. Without you, there would be no place for me in the Gu family."

Faced with someone's teasing, the blush that had just subsided on Mu Wanwan's face returned. "Gu Zhishen, if you keep doing this, I'm not talking to you anymore."

She gently pushed him and said coquettishly.

However, Gu Zhishen didn't take it to heart. Instead, he hugged her tightly, lowered his head, and whispered in her ear, "Wife, I was wrong. Please don't ignore me."

Mu Wanwan's face turned even redder, and she gently patted his shoulder, "Okay, let go of me now."

Gu Zhishen then let go of her hand, and couldn't help but laugh when he saw her shy expression.

At this moment, Gu's father and mother also looked at them with smiles, their eyes full of relief and happiness.

She is shy!

Gu's father started to defend his son, "Ah Shen, be serious."

He stopped teasing, but his body remained close to Mu Wanwan's, not letting go.

"Wanwan, this bunch of keys belongs to a car parked outside. It's also in your name. You can drive it back after dinner," Mr. Gu said with a smile to Mu Wanwan.

Mu Wanwan was somewhat surprised. She knew that villas in the eastern part of the city were incredibly valuable, with even a small villa costing tens of millions of yuan, and this car was even more expensive. She took the keys, glanced at the car logo on them, and noticed that it was an imported car brand, so it probably wasn't cheap either.

"Uncle, I can't accept this. You gave me money, a house, and a car on our first meeting. I really can't accept this. I would feel ashamed to accept it."

Mu Wanwan resolutely refused. Although she liked them all, she couldn't be too greedy.

Mother Gu saw through her thoughts and quickly put the key into her hand, saying gently, "Wanwan, your uncle gave it to you, so just accept it. He's not good with words but kind-hearted, and he's very happy with you as his daughter-in-law."

Gu Zhishen put the car keys into Wanwan's bag for her and thanked her on her behalf, saying, "Thank you, Mom and Dad."

Mu Wanwan stepped on his instep. Although it didn't hurt, she still glared at him, signaling him to shut up.

Gu Zhishen leaned close to her ear and whispered teasingly, "Murdering your husband, huh?"

Mu Wanwan was somewhat embarrassed and annoyed, and said reproachfully, "You..."

Gu Zhishen continued to tease her: "Wife, do you want to see me get my skin torn and bleeding?"

Mu Wanwan remembered what he had said in the bathroom earlier: if he got beaten up when he got home, she would definitely feel sorry for him. So, she stopped talking and just sighed softly.

After thinking for a moment, I thanked the two elderly people: "Thank you, uncles and aunties!"

After the initial gifts were exchanged, Gu's mother took out a separate box and handed it to Mu Wanwan. Mu Wanwan looked at Gu's mother with some surprise, wondering what was inside. She asked softly, "Auntie, what's this?"

With a smile, Madam Gu explained, "Wanwan, this is a family heirloom of our Gu family, passed down to daughters only. Now that you are the mistress of the Gu family, this item should rightfully be entrusted to you for safekeeping."

Upon hearing this, Mu Wanwan felt a surge of emotion and responsibility. She took the box, gently stroking its surface, sensing the history and family heritage it contained.

Gu Zhishen watched from the side. He had only heard of family heirlooms before, but had never seen one in person. Now, he was also very curious and couldn't resist opening the box before anyone else.

When the box was opened, a beam of emerald light shone out, illuminating the entire room. Upon closer inspection, a beautiful jade lion lay inside, its entire body emerald green, crystal clear, and radiating a mysterious and captivating luster.

This jade lion is exquisitely carved and lifelike, as if it might come to life at any moment. Its body is covered with intricate patterns, and every detail showcases superb craftsmanship.

He was awestruck by the beauty of the jade lion and exclaimed in amazement.

Mu Wanwan was so excited that she couldn't speak. She carefully picked up the jade lion and examined every detail of it.

Gu Zhishen was also attracted by the scene before him, and he knew the preciousness and rarity of this jade lion.

He turned to look at Gu's mother, his eyes filled with gratitude and respect.

Madam Gu smiled and nodded, indicating that they should cherish this family heirloom. Mu Wanwan nodded solemnly, indicating that she would definitely take good care of the jade lion and ensure its continued transmission.

At this moment, Mu Wanwan felt that her connection with the Gu family had become even closer, and she was determined to become a qualified mistress of the Gu family and protect this precious family wealth.
