Forced Pampering: Haughty Husband, Please Restrain Yourself-Chapter 780 - 793: The Difference in Identity
When the car arrived at the Mu Family’s old house, the servants were already waiting at the door. When they saw the car stop, someone immediately ran into the house to report.
Xiao Xiao got out of the car and looked at the guards in uniform at the door. She asked softly, "Ranran, who are the people in Instructor Mu’s family? Why are there sentry guards?"
"Instructor Mu’s grandfather and Brother Yang’s grandfather are both founding fathers of the country. The state places great emphasis on their security. You haven’t been to Brother Yang’s house. There are armed guards at his door," An Ran stuck out her tongue, though speaking seriously, there was a hint of playfulness.
"Armed?" Xiao Xiao glanced at Lin Junyang behind her. She remembered hearing An Ran say that Lin Junyang’s father was the Imperial Military Region Commander. Only at this moment did she feel the difference in their statuses.
Seeing Lin Junyang’s gaze sweep over, Xiao Xiao quickly retracted her gaze, standing somewhat timidly behind An Ran, carefully following her into the courtyard.
Lin Junyang looked at the girl’s demeanor and felt a strange sensation in his heart. He found this kind of Xiao Xiao extremely jarring. Wasn’t she fearless? Where had her momentum gone when she confronted him?
Unconsciously, he stepped forward, his hands tightened at his sides. Just as he was about to lose control and place a hand on the girl’s shoulder, an elderly yet gentle voice came through.
"Ranran, you’re back! Come here, let Grandma have a look at you."
"Grandma, why did you come out?" An Ran saw Grandma Mu and quickly ran over to greet her. Beside Grandma Mu were He Yushu and Mu Wanxin.
An Ran politely greeted, "Grandma, Aunt He, Big Sister, hello to you all."
"Good, good," Grandma Mu held An Ran’s small hand, gently stroking her long hair, and looked her up and down, "Not bad, you’ve gained a little weight. That rascal hasn’t been bullying you lately, has he?"
"Grandma, Xingfeng treats me very well," An Ran replied, a blush spreading across her face.
When she had left earlier, their relationship had been like fire and water, even on the verge of divorce. Now coming back, her relationship with Mu Xingfeng had made a qualitative leap. Seeing the Mu Family again, she felt a little guilty.
Grandma Mu was delighted to see An Ran’s shy demeanor. Having gained experience, she could tell that the girl had changed since the last time she mentioned her grandson. It seemed that the two had gotten along well in the past few months. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮
No need to say much about her grandson either. Even if she hadn’t seen Mu Xingfeng in person, she knew the girl’s importance in her grandson’s heart. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have insisted on holding an engagement ceremony before Wanxin’s wedding.
"Alright, let’s talk inside. You must be tired from the journey. And this must be your classmate?" He Yushu asked as she saw Xiao Xiao. An Ran had previously told the Mu Family she would bring a classmate over to play.
"Not tired at all, Aunt He. This is Xiao Xiao, my best friend," An Ran said as she turned and pulled Xiao Xiao over, introducing her, "This is Grandma, Aunt He, Big Sister."
Xiao Xiao never expected An Ran to get along so well with the Mu Family. She had been to An Family a few times and remembered how Mom An had always treated her with sarcasm, looking down on her as a child from a single-parent family, and An Sijia didn’t even bother to hide her disdain.
Now, seeing He Yushu take the initiative to talk to her, Xiao Xiao felt tremendously flattered, "Hello, Grandma, hello, Aunt He, Big Sister, you are really beautiful. Is it true happiness brings a glowing look?"
