The Time-Limited Love and Marriage
Chapter 164

Chapter 164: Chapter 164

Zhao Guangmei and her daughter had forced smiles: "So it was a gift from Moxi, then we talked too much earlier."

Jiang Sibei chuckled awkwardly: "So it was from Moxi, no wonder then."

Jiang Weiwei was more innocent: "It’s also considered Moxi’s good intention. She doesn’t have much money, you shouldn’t blame her."

Whereas Yu Man, who didn’t join the conversation from afar, just felt that Jiang Moxi had embarrassed her again.

Even though neither Zhao Guangmei nor Xiao Qingyun, who were accompanying her, criticized Jiang Moxi, or said a word about it.

After all, this time, Jiang Weiwei had helped the entire Jiang Family by finding that piece of ancient jade, and she played a significant role with Mr. Fang Jin.

But Yu Man was certain, both of them would definitely be laughing at their big room in their hearts, for raising a good-for-nothing like Jiang Moxi who even gives a fake and inferior gift to her cousin.

Yu Man felt her face burning, the respect she got through Jiang Weiwei’s effort, Jiang Moxi had completely thrown it all away.

When Yu Man was infuriated, Li Tinglu noticing everyone’s disregard for Jiang Moxi, lost her temper.

"What are you all looking at? The gift Sister Moxi gave couldn’t possibly be fake."

The way people treated Li Tinglu’s roar was either with a mocking smile, a look of ’if you’re happy that’s all that matters’, or as if looking at an idiot.

Only Jiang Ruxin was furiously reprimanding Li Tinglu: "How many times have I told you not to hang around with Jiang Moxi? Why don’t you listen? Be careful she drags you down into the ditch too."

Li Tinglu shouted back: "Sister Moxi would never lead me into a ditch. She’s more formidable than anyone here, she’s my role model!"

Jiang Ruxin was almost choked with anger: "You learn from her? Learn what? Learn how to attend a garbage university, or learn how to give gifts that aren’t even worthy to be called counterfeits?"

Jiang Ruxin’s words not only devastated Li Tinglu, but also infuriated Yu Man to the point of steaming anger.

Just as the situation was about to get out of control, Old Master Jiang, Jiang Tairan, suddenly spoke.

"Alright, calm down, everyone. I’ve gathered you here today to let you know that I have handed over the ancient jade to Mr. Fang Jin..."

Hearing this, everyone stopped ridiculing Jiang Moxi, the good-for-nothing other than being pretty, and immediately focused their attention on Jiang Tairan.

And Jiang Tairan’s kind gaze fell on Jiang Weiwei.

"Mr. Fang has confirmed that the jade is what he was looking for. To express his gratitude, Mr. Fang invited me and Weiwei to attend their family feast on New Year’s Eve."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Weiwei naturally received envious and adoring gazes from the other members of the Jiang Family.

And Yu Man, lifting her chin, her smile full of pride, felt that the face Jiang Moxi made her lose was once again restored because of Jiang Weiwei.

Jiang Tairan even specially reminded Jiang Guosheng and Yu Man.

"Remember to dress Weiwei up nicely. I heard from Mr. Fang that Feng Yu, the new head of the Emperor City Feng Family, will also attend the Fang Family’s New Year’s Eve feast this year."

Upon this revelation, other members of the Jiang Family began whispering.

"I heard the new head of the Emperor City Feng Family, Feng Yu is extremely handsome and brilliant. Most importantly, he’s currently single."

"So, does the old master mean to marry Weiwei into the Emperor City Feng Family? But didn’t Weiwei and Young Master Fu already have an engagement?"

"I think the Fu Family and the Emperor City Feng Family are incomparable. If Weiwei becomes the matriarch of the Emperor City Feng Family, our Jiang Family will be the family of the Feng Family Matriarch."

"Right, even if the Fu Family dominates one side in Yan City, they are nothing in Emperor City. Our Weiwei has both beauty and talent, of course she should choose the higher branch. Weiwei, if you become the matriarch of the Feng Family, don’t forget your little aunt, and also help Sibei by introducing her to the young talents of Emperor City..."

Amid the heated discussions, Jiang Weiwei blushed: "Actually, my relationship with Young Master Fu was just a verbal agreement between our parents, nothing was finalized."

Yu Man showed a reluctant face: "I never thought about sending Weiwei so far away! But I can’t obstruct her growth either..."

Zhao Guangmei and Jiang Ruxin quickly consoled her: "Nowadays, transportation is so developed, if you want to see Weiwei, isn’t it just a couple of hours flight?"

"Yes, and Weiwei could even buy you an apartment in Emperor City. You could stay there whenever you miss her."

Jiang Weiwei also crowded near Yu Man, affectionately and reluctantly nestling on her shoulder.

Li Tinglu rolled her eyes at the scene.

Jiang Weiwei and Young Master Fu clearly had a marriage agreement, and now she was hastily presenting herself before the Feng Family Patriarch?

This family must be crazily obsessed with money, right?

At the same time, on the other side of the city at the Fang Family—

Mr. Fang Jin was in his study, photographing the ancient jade sent by Jiang Tairan using his phone, then sending it to an account.

A few minutes later, a call came in, and Mr. Fang Jin hurriedly answered.

"Sir, this is indeed the ancient jade from Miss Xi. I have checked it over and over, there can be no mistake."

Mr. Fang Jin’s tone was unusually serious and respectful.

Meanwhile, in the courtyard of the Feng Family in Emperor City, a tall, slender man stood in front of a bamboo grove covered with fresh snow.

Under the bright moonlight, one could vaguely see that even though the man wore glasses, his features were strikingly handsome, the type countless women would fall for.

Hearing Mr. Fang Jin’s report over the phone, Feng Yu slightly squinted his eyes and asked, "Who has the ancient jade now?"

Mr. Fang Jin replied, "Sir, it’s Old Man Jiang, who started in real estate development in Yan City. But he claims that the jade belongs to his granddaughter."

Feng Yu spoke casually, with a hint of interest, "I remember that Feng Xi’s biological parents also had the Jiang surname."

So, is Old Man Jiang’s granddaughter, Feng Xi?

"I also think she might indeed be Miss Xi. Therefore, I have invited both grandparents to attend the Fang Family’s New Year’s Eve dinner. Sir, would it be convenient for you to come to Yan City that night?"

"Convenient! Any time is good to see Feng Xi."

After ending the call, Feng Yu gazed at the bright moon in the sky and smiled, "Xixi, we will be meeting very soon."

In that dim light, his smile looked both righteous and wicked, causing a shiver...

Jiang Moxi finished signing the rental contract; she could move tomorrow.

Thinking she might not have time to visit Feng Ming tomorrow, she bought some snacks en route to the hospital.

"Brother, I brought you some tasty egg pancakes, you..."

Jiang Moxi smiled as she opened the door to Feng Ming’s hospital room, but her smile faded and froze at her lips when she saw another man in the room.

She never expected Fu Youhan to be there.

"What are you doing here?"

Her tone was bitingly cold.

But Fu Youhan, as if unaffected by her cold demeanor, smiled and said, "I couldn’t find you all day, and this was the only place I thought you might be."

His demeanor, his calm matter-of-factness, seemed as if all previous disagreements between them had vanished.

Yet the chill on Jiang Moxi’s face remained: "Why are you looking for me? I don’t think there’s a need for us to meet. You can leave now."
