After accidentally sending a late-night reading to her ex-boyfriend

Jiang Yue increasingly felt that the couple was very suspicious of her.

However, Jiang Yue didn't want to delve too deeply into things that even Mo Chenyuan was unwilling to discuss.

She took the box, politely opened it, and found a jadeite safety buckle. Compared to what Jiang Yue had expected—a bracelet or other priceless jewelry—this safety buckle seemed a little less valuable.

However, it is quite valuable.

"Take it since Grandpa gave it to you!"

Mo Chenyuan remained calm no matter what happened, and even took out the safety buckle and put it on Jiang Yue.

Jiang Yue was somewhat flattered. She had promised herself she wouldn't say anything, but she couldn't help but ask, "Grandpa, I want to know, why did this thing end up in my hands?"

Grandpa Mo's face darkened.

"It's because the Mo family didn't have a real 'mistress' before."

Jiang Yue didn't know how to describe it, nor did she know the specific meaning of the sentence.

Jiang Yue thought for a moment, then her gaze fell on the old man's calm face.

"I don't understand business dealings and can't help the Mo family in any way. Logically speaking, I'm the one who's not suitable."

The old man didn't say anything.

"After the wedding, you will be the rightful mistress of the Mo family. You must believe in yourself and know that you can do it."

Well, since the old man has said so, what else can Jiang Yue say?

She nodded obediently.

As if being pushed forward, Jiang Yue could no longer retreat.

Mo Chenyuan grasped Jiang Yue's hand.

"The family has actually been preparing for the wedding. Shen Yuan contacted us before and told us your preferences. At least the flowers and other things can be arranged by you."

Jiang Yue nodded.

For Jiang Yue, attending the Mo family wedding was simply a matter of course.

Since Grandpa Mo was still willing to show me some respect, I should at least say thank you for making the appointment.

"You can go back now!"

……

Grandpa Mo didn't say much, just gave the most basic instructions, and then went back to rest.

When Jiang Yue and Mo Chenyuan came out, the rest of the Mo family were waiting at the door. When they saw Jiang Yue come out, Mo's mother raised her head. She was just going to take a rather indifferent look, but she was surprised and couldn't take her eyes off her after just one glance.

It wasn't because of anything else, but because of the bright green safety buckle around Jiang Yue's neck.

Mo's mother subconsciously clenched her back teeth.

You know, she worked her whole life for this and never got it.

She was not the mistress of the Mo family, but merely the daughter-in-law of the Mo family.

Mother Mo had long suspected that the old man wanted to give his things to Mo Chenyuan's wife, but she never expected that even someone from Jiang Yue's family background could truly defy fate and change her destiny simply by becoming Mo Chenyuan's wife.

She originally thought that the old man would probably leave this thing to some noble family descendant.

Mo's mother walked up to Jiang Yue and stared at the safety buckle for a long time.

"This is... from the old man! Why would the old man give you this?!"

Every single word is hard to believe.

Jiang Yue remained calm: "Auntie, I'm married to Shen Yuan. Since Shen Yuan is the future heir of the Mo family, why can't this thing be in my hands?"

Jiang Yue's answer was very calm.

"Who gave you permission to be so unruly? You've already married Shen Yuan..."

"Yesterday, when I respectfully called her 'Mom,' it was my aunt who brought it up. I only married Shen Yuan; it has nothing to do with you! Wasn't this change of address something you had already planned?"

Jiang Yue's tone was calm yet firm.

Mo's mother looked at Jiang Yue, furious, but for a moment she couldn't blame Jiang Yue for anything.

After all, what she said yesterday was indeed hers.

"You're going to marry Shen Yuan after all, so you should call him back."

Perhaps it was the Mo family patriarch who gave Jiang Yue confidence. Jiang Yue used to think of herself as the outsider, and she was very tolerant and polite to this family.

The old man probably saw through this a long time ago. Perhaps what he meant was that there was no need to continue to tolerate these people, right?

Thinking about it, Jiang Yue raised her head.

"The Mo family lives overseas, but they are still Chinese people. According to custom, my aunt should give me a big red envelope. Moreover, since my grandfather has already accepted me and hopes that I will stay in the Mo family to hold the wedding, let's do things according to the rules."

Jiang Yue smiled as she looked at Mo's mother in front of her.

She was very happy to have won the game.

When Mo's mother was so angry that she wanted to hit someone, Mo Lin stopped her.

"Aunt, don't be impulsive. If you lay a hand on him today, Grandpa will be angry!"

As he spoke, Mo Lin looked at Jiang Yue, as if to suggest that she should stop while she was ahead.

Jiang Yue accepted Mo Lin's kindness, took a step back, and looked at Mo Lin.

"Shen Yuan, control the people around you. I am your elder, after all. What does she mean by this?"

"You don't have to be her elder. Mom, you should see it now: in Grandpa's heart, A-Yue is more like a member of the Mo family than you are!"

Upon hearing this, Mo Mu broke through her defenses and was about to charge forward.

Mo Chenyuan, however, grabbed Jiang Yue and left without looking back.

Jiang Yue was stunned.

"I don't get along with your mother, and it's fine if I clash with her, but what's going on with you, Mo Chenyuan! I just don't understand, this safety amulet is so powerful, and now that I have it, I can actually ride on your mother's head?"

Mo Chenyuan had no doubts.

"The mistress of the Mo family is, of course, of much higher status than someone who lives in the Mo family. Although there aren't many people left in the Mo family, the rules still exist. My parents don't hold any positions in the family business now; they only live at home because of blood ties."

What right do the two people living in this house have to say so much?

Mo Chenyuan explained carefully, and Jiang Yue understood that the Mo family had such rules.

But why were the Mo family parents disliked by the old man?

Jiang Yue couldn't figure it out, and she didn't want to figure it out right now.

……

The next day, Mo Chenyuan took Jiang Yue to see the wedding venue and to try on wedding dresses.

Unexpectedly, other members of the Mo family also came.

First, they arrived at the lawn of the manor, where the Mo family was going to hold a very grand wedding, and the flowers used were all imported white roses that Jiang Yue liked.

The site layout was also provided with renderings, and the scene could be completed in just a few days.

Jiang Yue was surprised that the Mo family prepared wedding supplies that ordinary people would need to order six months in advance, all year round.

Jiang Yue was extremely satisfied upon seeing the venue.

However, Mo's mother was somewhat displeased.

"It's supposed to be a nice wedding, but I don't know what kind of taste they have, liking white. It'll be all white then, and people who don't know any better will think the Mo family is holding a funeral!"

What Mo's mother said was very unpleasant.

All eyes turned to them.
