The boss is back and she doesn’t pretend to be a fake daughter anymore

The day before Jiang Xuxu’s birthday.

The Jiang family was decorated from top to bottom.

Because it was Jiang Xuxu's first birthday back in the Jiang family, the Jiang family, from Mr. Jiang to Jiang Yucheng, paid great attention to it.

Jiang Cheng felt a little weak when he woke up early in the morning.

It's like a person who doesn't exercise all year round is usually weak, but he obviously takes time to exercise every week.

Scratching his hair irritably, Jiang Chengzhuo pulled on his slippers and walked to the bathroom. Facing the increasingly unfamiliar self in the mirror, he began to wash up while leaning forward.

I brushed my teeth, washed my face, and finally wiped my face randomly, and then I was ready to go downstairs.

When he went downstairs, the sister-in-law who was cleaning the stairs saw him and her eyes widened again, "Who are you?"

This was not the first time Jiang Cheng was not recognized, and he became increasingly irritated.

"If you look carefully, who am I?"

He gritted his teeth as he spoke. My sister-in-law looked at it carefully after hearing the sound, and finally came to her senses, "Young Master Cheng, I'm sorry, I seemed to be dazzled just now."

Jiang Cheng ignored the other party.

Over the past few days, he has almost gotten used to this kind of situation where people admit their mistakes from time to time.

Ignoring my sister-in-law again, Jiang Cheng went downstairs. The first thing he did was to ask,

"When will Jiang Xuxu come back?"

These days, he tried to find so-called masters to help him solve his problems, but those masters either wanted to cheat money, or said they were powerless.

Jiang Cheng's only hope now is Jiang Xuxu.

Jiang Su didn't have a good attitude toward him these days. He even occasionally looked at him like a stranger. Hearing this, he just said,

"My sister is busy and won't have time to talk to you when she comes back."

Jiang Cheng's face suddenly darkened again, and he couldn't help but lecture him.

"Jiang Su, what's your attitude now? I'm your brother!"

"Are you my brother?!"

Jiang Su retorted, "How do you look like my brother now? Look at what you are wearing recently, you look like a loser."

Jiang Cheng was criticized by him and subconsciously looked at his clothes, and his face turned dark again.

Without saying a word, he turned around and went upstairs, randomly picking out some of his old clothes from the closet.

He found that whenever he relaxed a little recently, he would always subconsciously show some habits or hobbies that were obviously different from his usual habits.

It was like there was another person living in his body.

Or maybe he was becoming someone else.

Not daring to imagine that possibility, Jiang Cheng forced himself to tense up and took out a treasured sapphire necklace from the safe.

This is a unique necklace that he personally designed and asked world-renowned craftsmen to create.

Of course Jiang Cheng knew that if he went straight to ask Jiang Xuxu for help, she might not pay attention to him.

He has already thought about it.

On the eve of her birthday, give her your own gift first.

No matter how cold-hearted Jiang Xuxu is, she can't really ignore herself.

Just coaxing her, Jiang Cheng thought he could do it.

That night, Jiang Cheng took out the gifts in advance while everyone had finished dinner.

He put his best foot forward and tried to speak as gently as possible,

"It's your birthday tomorrow. There are a lot of people coming. I guess you'll be busy socializing, so I'll give this gift to you in advance. I saw the custom-made dress that my aunt made for you, and this necklace just matches your dress."

Jiang Cheng gave the gift in front of everyone in the family, and Jiang Yuxin came back specially tonight because she wanted to help prepare for the birthday party.

Seeing that Jiang Cheng rarely took the initiative to show kindness, he responded with a smile.

"Really, this necklace really matches the dress I prepared for you. Why don't you wear this tomorrow?"

The rest of the Jiang family were naturally happy to see the harmony between the cousins, so they also echoed a few times.

Xue Ningyu even took the initiative and said,

"Xuxu, do you want to try it on?"

In the face of everyone's eager eyes, Jiang Xuxu only slowly lowered his eyes and spoke in a calm tone,

"I do not want."

Everyone was stunned, and Jiang Cheng was even more in disbelief, "You don't want the gift I gave you?"

Jiang Xuxu just looked at him steadily and said, "Yes."

As soon as Jiang Xuxu said these words, the faces of the Jiang family present were a little complicated.

Old Mrs. Jiang on the side suddenly spoke,

"Xuxu, I know your cousin did something that made you unhappy before, but it's over and he has apologized to you. Now he has prepared such a thoughtful gift for you in advance. It's unavoidable for you to do this. Too petty."

Jiang Huai and others frowned and wanted to speak. Jiang Cheng, who was beside him, had already turned cold and stood up quickly and said,

"If you don't care about the gift I specially prepared for you, then I don't have to ask you for it."

He said, looking around at everyone again,

"You have all seen that she is the one who looks down on me. Don't ever say that I am targeting her again!"

Jiang Cheng said, taking the jewelry box and turning to leave, but behind him, Jiang Xuxu spoke coldly again,

"Is this gift of yours really specially prepared for me?"

Second uncle Jiang Yumin couldn't help but said,

"Xuxu, what you said is that if Jiang Cheng didn't prepare this gift for you, could it be for someone else? Don't be ignorant, apologize to your cousin."

Jiang Xuxu was unmoved when he heard this. Instead, he looked at Jiang Cheng with a cold voice.

"You're right, I do look down on you, but I don't accept your gifts, not because of you, but because they are things you prepare for others."

Jiang Xuxu's last words made everyone in the Jiang family present a little confused. Only Jiang Huai was the first to react. His usually smiling eyes suddenly turned cold.

Jiang Cheng's heart skipped a beat when he heard Jiang Xuxu say again,

"If I remember correctly, the jewelry box in your hand is customized by the D family, and their customized models are all ordered at least one month in advance."

Jiang Yuxin was the first to react to Jiang Xuxu's prompt.

Yes, why didn't she think of this just now?

It would take Jiang Cheng at least a month to customize the box alone. He just said that he designed and customized the necklace himself, which would take at least three months.

three months ago.

Xuxu had just come back not long ago, and at that time, Jiang Cheng disliked everything about Jiang Xuxu, let alone prepared a birthday gift for her in advance.

Thinking back to what Jiang Xuxu said just now, Jiang Yuxin suddenly thought of a possibility. At that moment, he looked at Jiang Cheng with a little annoyance in his eyes.

If this is really what she thinks.

Then this nephew is too incompetent!

Xue Ningyu was also a woman and was relatively sensitive to this kind of thing. She quickly reacted and looked at her son, who was so angry that he hated iron but could not make steel.

Only a few men were clearly still outside the situation, so Jiang Xuxu simply spoke more clearly, stretched out his hand and pointed to the customized letters on his box,

"The xx on your box is not Jiang Xuxu's x, but Lu Xuexi's x, right?"

As she spoke, her almond-shaped eyes looked at Jiang Cheng again, her eyes full of indifference.

"I don't want the necklace you customized specifically for Lu Xuexi."

Her last words were not serious, but in Jiang Cheng's ears, they made him stand up and blush.

Jiang Su on the side jumped up in disbelief and pointed at Jiang Cheng,

"Brother Cheng! You've gone too far! Why should you give something Lu Xuexi doesn't want as a birthday gift to my sister?!"
