Chapter 810: Chapter 809: Not Sure Whether to Laugh or Cry Chapter 810: Chapter 809: Not Sure Whether to Laugh or Cry The airport wasn’t far away, and they arrived within an hour.
Since the flight was estimated to arrive at eleven in the morning, and it was only ten fifty, there was no rush.
The moment the car stopped, Qiao Xiaren was practically awake.
Qiao Xiaren rubbed her eyes, only to see him retrieving a rather fancy gift box from the back seat. His other hand rested on the steering wheel, his long, fair fingers exceptionally attractive.
Wang Yi had once mentioned that a man looked his best while driving.
Upon observation, it was indeed true.
“What’s this?” Qiao Xiaren saw the English script for Tiffany on the box, knowing that it was a piece of jewelry from M Country of considerable value, said to be a favorite among wealthy ladies.
She immediately grasped the situation, “Is this the gift you prepared for me to give to your mother?”
It seemed to be a woman’s natural inclination to love jewelry; although she didn’t know Mrs. Si’s preferences, giving jewelry was always safe.
“I had someone pick it up on the way over today. Although my mom doesn’t care about these formalities, it’s always better to give something than nothing,” Si Limo said as he unlocked the car door and picked up his Bluetooth headset to answer a call.
It was probably Mrs. Si who had just gotten off the plane.
Qiao Xiaren didn’t have much to say, placing the jewelry box in the car and closing the door.
He turned to face her, locking eyes with hers, and reached out his hand to her.
Qiao Xiaren took his hand and followed his pace closely.
Although it wasn’t the first time she was meeting Mrs. Si, she somehow felt a bit nervous.
Previously when they met, their relationship hadn’t been confirmed, but now that it was, she was anxious about her relationship with his mother. Many people struggled with mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationships, ultimately causing difficulties for the entire family.
“Don’t be nervous, my mom isn’t going to eat you. It’s not like you haven’t met her before.”
Seeing her so nervous for the first time, Si Limo couldn’t help but stop in his tracks, gently running his hand through her hair, “Relax, I want you to marry me with joy and pleasure, not to worry about these trifles every day.”
“Alright, alright, let’s go. When did you become such a chatterbox,” Qiao Xiaren’s hint of nervousness that she had finally suppressed was now stirred up again by him.
If she didn’t care about him so much, she wouldn’t be feeling any emotional fluctuations at all!
Watching Qiao Xiaren’s retreating figure, he found her little sulking today exceptionally cute and couldn’t help but laugh softly, quickening his pace to catch up.
How could he not understand her little worries?
Inside the airport, the sweet voice of the announcer echoed over and over again. At the VIP passage, they finally saw Mrs. Si pushing a baggage cart out.
Despite wearing large sunglasses, Qiao Xiaren recognized her at a glance.
She had thought Mrs. Si would be alone, but to her surprise, Si Zhilan was also with her. Si Limo seemed somewhat unexpected as well; he hadn’t heard that Zhilan would be coming back.
“Mom, they’re over there!” Si Zhilan, being more sharp-eyed, spotted the two of them right away.
“Mom, Zhilan,” Si Limo greeted, taking the luggage from their hands.
“Mrs. Si, Zhilan,” Qiao Xiaren greeted with a smile, her cooler nature preventing her from being overly enthusiastic with others.
“Good child, you’re here too,” Mrs. Si, noticing Qiao Xiaren, her eyes softened with a gentle light as she approached. It seemed as though she was being careful not to startle her, even speaking lightly.
“Child, you’ve been working hard in M Country recently. I was supposed to come a few days earlier to see you on the T-Stage, but I’ve been tied up with so many things lately that I had to postpone until today to come here.
Qiao Xiaren found herself somewhat amused by Mrs. Si’s demeanor.
