Mu Yan ultimately didn't let Zhuang Yi go buy the gift alone; she and Jiang Jingheng went out with him.
Having been married for so long, she knew what gifts to bring when visiting someone's home.
Zhuang Yi looked at her bustling about with satisfaction, feeling a mix of comfort and heartache, like seeing his precious cabbage being carried off by a wolf.
Jiang Jingheng caught his resentful gaze, his own eyes sharp. If it weren't for Mu Yan, he would have wanted to kick Zhuang Yi back to Beijing.
Once Mu Yan selected the gift, Zhuang Yi immediately went to pay for it, then loaded everything into the car, and they all headed to the Jiang Family Mansion.
On a Saturday, the Jiang Family Mansion was especially lively.
As soon as they entered, Mu Yan heard laughter and voices from inside.
Jiang Jingheng went to park the car, while Mu Yan led Zhuang Yi inside.
