Below that,the words were framed by the engravings of two strands of golden wheat and four blinding, equallybright golden stars.

“Oh no, sis! Your husband has brought his mistress home!” Yun Muyu waved her hands about andmade wild exaggerations, smearing Chu Feng’s name with glee. “That’s her! I saw Chu Feng buy her adozen pieces of jewelry worth several million in total! Oh, the audacity of this man!” She rolled up hersleeves in the same excited manner. “What say you, sis? Shall he be punished by kneeling on thornydurians or the washboard? I’ll get either immediately.”
M-Mistress? Zhou Ying immediately flushed and Chu Feng’s face immediately looked awkward; thisaunt of Duo Duo’s is a real handful.
“Scram! Off with you! How are you so childish at such a big age?” Yun Muqing gently shoved herhyperactive cousin aside and walked straight toward Zhou Ying with open arms, in a show ofgenerosity as her hostess. “Hello. Zhou Ying, right? Chu Feng’s sister? I believe we’ve met.”
“Hi, Muqing.” Zhou Ying nodded her head, still slightly embarrassed.
Because of Sun Mingxuan’s antics in the Golden Sands Nightclub the other day, the two women didn’tleave a good impression on each other and Zhou Ying blamed herself for that.
Luckily, Yun Muqing was the generous sort and she immediately took Zhou Ying’s hand happily. “I’veheard so much about you from Chu Feng. Do come over more often, since we’re family now. That’sYun Muyu, my sister-like cousin. She’s just like that all the time, loud-mouthed and immature. Pleaseexcuse that prank she just played on you.” Yun Muqing pointed to Yun Muyu, who waved her hand ingreeting with a sunny smile. “And that’s my daughter, Duo Duo.” Yun Muqing waved her over, whileChu Feng picked her up and instructed, “Duo Duo, greet your aunt.” novelbin
“Hi, aunty.” Duo Duo greeted her with cute, expressive big eyes.
“This is your daughter, Chu Feng? She’s so big already.” Zhou Ying was slightly surprised, then poutedin protest. “Why didn’t you tell us about something so important?”
Yun Muqing blushed in embarrassment; she couldn’t exactly tell her that she and Chu Feng wereputting on the ‘fake couple’ act. Luckily, Chu Feng settled the matter with a simple ‘It’s a long story’.
“Our Duo Duo is so pretty. She’ll surely grow up to be a gorgeous lady.” Zhou Ying stooped down andcheerfully pinched Duo Duo on the cheek, full of love and happiness. She’d just met this little girl, butshe had only love for her and no hate.
“Mm hmm. When I grow up, I want to be a beautiful lady like you, aunty.” Duo Duo smiled sweetly,looking as cute as she could be.
