Chapter 836: Chapter 698: Liking You Since the First Glance 39_3
Lin Mom smiled, "No, the young girl has been up for quite a while, she should be brushing her teeth or something, I’ll go up and take a look."
"Alright, then let the young girl not worry, take it easy, I’ll have lunch with her here, have afternoon tea, and then head back later. I’m planning to take her shopping too; she needs to buy things for school, after all."
"There hasn’t been a girl in the family, only Xiaowa, but you know, Bo Xiaowa doesn’t like being at home at all, she makes us motherly aunts coax her. She’s been independent since she was young, but now we have a little girl ready-made, I’m so happy about it."
Lin Mom smiled lightly, "Yes, the young girl that sir brought back is quite well-behaved and sensible."
"I can’t wait to meet her, though Eldest Brother said the young girl is shy and we might scare her by visiting, so many years have passed since then. I heard she did well in the exams, so I came specifically to see her and chat. If she needs anything, she shouldn’t hesitate to ask."
...
"Lin Mom, what are you saying, who has come?"
Jian Dan saw Lin Mom going upstairs, thinking she was too slow and Lin Mom was here to urge her to hurry. But before she could ask, Lin Mom said Bo Qin’s mother was here, waiting downstairs, which left Jian Dan bewildered. She slowly asked.
Lin Mom, seeing the young girl looking dazed, walked over, took the comb from her hands, and tidied her smooth, long hair. "Your Uncle Qin’s mother is waiting downstairs, she wants to meet you, so go down later. Don’t worry too much, sir’s mother is a really good person."
But Jian Dan was uneasy, maybe because she’d watched too many soap operas, her mind was now filled with thoughts like whether she knew about her liking for her son, if she was a shameless person, and had come to give her a check.
As these chaotic thoughts ran through her mind, Lin Mom took her downstairs. The lady sitting in the living room had an elegant and graceful demeanor, clearly from a big family. Jian Dan nervously walked over, hearing footsteps behind her. Bo Lady turned around, saw the sensible Jian Dan, and she was exactly as she liked — almost every aspect matched her aesthetic. Bo Lady’s eyes lit up, she put down her cup, stood up, and took Jian Dan’s hand. "Is this Little Jian Dan?"
Jian Dan was taken aback but gave Bo Lady a sweet smile, "Madam."
"Don’t call me madam, just call me Aunt, anyway, I’m young."
Calling Bo Qin uncle and Bo Qin’s mom aunt, the generations are confusing.
Jian Dan smiled awkwardly, seemingly understanding Jian Dan’s predicament, Bo Lady winked at her, "As for our foolish son, you don’t need to mind him. Is Bo Qin treating you well?"
Jian Dan nodded, "Aunt, Uncle Qin treats me very well. Since adopting me, he’s been taking good care of me."
"He hasn’t even brought you to the old mansion for us to see, so boring. Have you had breakfast? Aunt’s first priority this time is to see you and then take you shopping. If you want anything, tell Aunt, don’t be shy. It’s our fault for not visiting you all these years, so don’t be shy with Aunt."
"Aunt, I don’t lack anything."
Jian Dan was simply overwhelmed.
Bo Lady held her hand, smiling warmly, "I know you lack nothing, but buying things for you is my intention as an elder, you can’t refuse."
Jian Dan glanced at Lin Mom with difficulty, Lin Mom giggled, "Little Jian Dan, you should go shopping with the madam, just consider it accompanying the madam for shopping. There’s nothing wrong with it, and the madam likes you, that’s why she wants you to go shopping together."
Bo Lady seemed to have found a reasonable excuse, she said, "Yes, yes, just accompanying me shopping, I’m not a fussy shopper, Little Jian Dan, you must accompany me."
Jian Dan couldn’t refuse, in fact, she didn’t even know how to refuse, so she just had a simple breakfast and followed Bo Lady out of the house.
Bo Lady took Jian Dan straight to a department store owned by the Bo Corporation, where she just had to show her face. She leisurely took Jian Dan to shop through the stores, and whatever she felt suited Jian Dan was all packed up. A driver and two bodyguards behind acted as porters.
Jian Dan kept saying it was too much, that she didn’t need any more, but Bo Lady wouldn’t listen and kept spending money.
