The family had a lively meal together before—under Shi Nian’s repeated insistence—reluctantly bidding farewell to Yun Nan. Yun Nan felt that the four Shi family members would happily follow her and Shi Nian back to their penthouse at her slightest word.

Yun Nan was still smiling when the car left the villa compound. She had never experienced such a homely atmosphere before. Shi Nian saw her smile. He knew that his family preferred Yun Nan to Yun Liu, but he didn’t expect them to like her so much.

What’s more, Yun Nan didn’t bend over backward to please his family. She treated them naturally and sincerely, which caused him to have a better impression of her.

“Your family is so lively,” Yun Nan sighed softly. Shi Nian didn’t say anything in response; he didn’t know if the remark was aimed at the failures of her own family.

Yun Nan turned to him with a smile and asked, “Do you mind me bringing Shi Xiu over to my place? And your mother, too?”

Shi Nian answered in confusion as he turned the steering wheel, “Of course not. Why would you need to ask?”

Yun Nan was quite happy at the affirmation and said, “That’s good.”

Shi Nian couldn’t help but add, “Just so you know, they aren’t so nice to just anyone. My sister has a fiery temper.”

Yun Nan nodded and didn’t mind that fact. She’s been around; after all, Fang Xi and Miss An could also be very alarming when they got worked up, so she could handle Shi Xiu!

When they arrived home and got out of the car, Yun Nan looked at the mountain of gifts in the back seat and trunk and groaned, “There’s so many.”

Shi Nian silently smiled. ‘And there’s more to come in the future. Once Yun Nan approves of their gift-giving, she will receive an endless stream ofgifts from my family. Xiang Yang is one such; she probably won’t stop sending things over until Shi Ke steps in.’

Shi Nian began to pick up the bags. Yun Nan helped him as she said, “We should do an inventory later and make a record of all these gifts.”

Shi Nian looked at Yun Nan, puzzled. “It’ll be easier to hand things over when we part ways if we have a clear record,” Yun Nan explained. Shi Nian became sullen at her answer; he walked towards the elevator with his hands full of bags without saying a word.

Yun Nan was unaware of his dark mood. She carried the rest of the gifts and followed behind him. She was still reminiscing about Shi Nian’s fun relatives and was completely ignorant of his anger.

Shi Nian was furious. After he entered the house, he deposited the bags heavily on the floor. He stared at Yun Nan as she stumbled in with her burden, changed her shoes, and placed the bags on the floor with a sigh of relief.

It took Yun Nan a second to notice Shi Nian’s dark expression, and she blurted out, “What’s wrong?”

Shi Nian pointed at the pile of gifts on the ground. “These gifts are for you! There’s no need to make a record; they’re all yours! You’re not allowed to return them to me when we’re separated!”

“But there’s so many—” Yun Nan began before Shi Nian cut her off. “Mom said you can give them to someone else!”

‘Are you kidding me?!’ Yun Nan thought. ‘The cost of these handbags and purses his mother and sister gave me range from tens of thousands to more than two hundred thousand dollars! I can’tjust give them away!’

“They’re too valuable!” Yun Nan hurriedly stated.

Shi Nian pointed at the painting on the balcony and commented, “And the gifts you gave them aren’t? Those items are impossible to get from anyone else, aren’t they?”

Yun Nan subconsciously swallowed. ‘That’s true, but…’

“But then…” Yun Nan was tied in knots as she tried to work her mind around the issue.

Shi Nian took out the jade bracelets that his grandfather had given her. Without any explanation, he pulled Yun Nan’s left hand over and slid them onto her wrist as he adamantly said, “Grandpa gave these to you, so you have to wear them. Xiang Yang always wears hers! Otherwise, what could you say if Grandpa asked you about them?”

Yun Nan was caught off guard and didn’t struggle free. She stared at the expensive bracelets on her wrist and dazedly replied, “I will say I’m keeping them safe to pass them down the family!”

‘Keep them in the box until they can be passed on to the rightful person,’ she silently added.

Shi Nian held Yun Nan’s wrist, feeling very satisfied as he studied it. “I see no reason why you can’t wear them and pass them down the line.”

“What if they get damaged? I can’t afford that risk! They look custom-made; I don’t think I can find the same model, can I?” Yun Nan weakly remarked. She had to admit the bracelets were beautiful—so much so that she couldn’t bear to take them off.

Shi Nian reached out to poke Yun Nan’s forehead, tilting her head back, and said, “What kind of nonsense is going through that head of yours? Just wear them like how you would any other bracelet. You don’t have to pay for them if they break; I’ll write you a letter of commitment if that’ll ease your worries.” “What for?” Yun Nan asked, baffled.

“I pledge that these gifts were given to you by my family of their own free will. I won’t take them hack. whatever the case mav help that enough for you?” Shi

Nian inquired with a scowl.

“That’s not what I meant! I-I just feel that the gifts are too expensive. Our marriage is fake—,” Yun Nan hastily clarified.

“Stop!” Shi Nian interrupted her..
