It’s finally happening, and she still wants to hide.
She wasn’t really Xing Chen’s official wife; they were only temporarily tied together because of a deal.
No need to meet the parents, right??
Xiangsi’s worries were evident to Xing Chen.
He turned around and stood in front of her, exuding an elegant demeanor.
"She won’t rest until she sees you."
His words implied that she couldn’t avoid this any longer.
Running away is never the solution.
Of course, Xiangsi understood this, but...
"Should I go change first? I heard from Lou Xining that your family is very noble and mysterious? I’m...I’m not a princess or a socialite, she definitely won’t like me..."
Xiangsi’s mood was a bit down, she was very worried.
Because she cared about Xing Chen, she didn’t want his mother to dislike her.
The pressure was immense...
Seeing her nervousness, Xing Chen smiled gently.
His well-defined fingers tucked a strand of hair behind her ear as he chuckled softly, "Right now, you are my wife."
As soon as the words were spoken, he reached out and took her hand, their fingers interlocking tightly.
The person he chose, he was confident his mother would like.
He knew that Xiangsi was already good enough!
Stunned, Xiangsi followed Xing Chen almost unconsciously as he led her into the living room.
As they say, concern leads to confusion. She cared too much, hence she was so nervous.
Taking a deep breath, Xiangsi constantly cheered herself up inside. Finally, she lifted her head and walked towards the sofa with Xing Chen, head held high and chest out.
As she got closer, Xiangsi saw the elegant lady sitting on the sofa.
Her skin was very well-maintained!
She looked no more than in her early thirties, wearing a cream-colored fitted suit jacket, her hair elegantly styled up, adorned with a petite hat, exuding a powerful aura!
She truly had a bit of the Southern Federation Royal Family’s presence!
Xiangsi slightly held her breath, because she saw that the elegant lady was examining her...
Seeing the lady, Xing Chen naturally showed a hint of a smile, "Mom."
Xiahou Xiu Yun nodded, glanced at Xing Chen, and then turned to Xiangsi, saying proactively, "Xiangsi seems a bit nervous?"
"Huh? How does auntie know my name is Xiangsi..." Xiangsi was taken aback, looking at Xiahou Xiu Yun in surprise.
It wasn’t Xiangsi’s fault for not recognizing her. After all, the elegant and beautiful Xiahou Xiu Yun before her was hardly associable with the dirty, ragged old lady from this afternoon.
Hearing the word "auntie," Xiahou Xiu Yun was also slightly puzzled and glanced at Xing Chen questioningly.
Xing Chen understood and reminded Xiangsi, "Call her Mom."
"Ah? Oh, oh..." Snapping out of it, Xiangsi looked at Xiahou Xiu Yun and smiled awkwardly, "Mom..."
She hadn’t called anyone "Mom" for ten years. This sudden address felt very foreign. Follow current novᴇls on N(o)vᴇl(F)ire.nᴇt
"You..." Xiahou Xiu Yun nodded and was about to say something when Xing Chen interrupted.
"Don’t you have work? Go ahead, I’m here." Xing Chen’s words were directed at Xiangsi.
He could see she wasn’t comfortable and was speaking cautiously. If she stayed any longer, her nerves might snap at any moment.
Hearing Xing Chen’s words, Xiangsi felt like she had been saved. She nodded quickly, "Alright then, you two chat, I’ll be on my way..."
