Nangong Xu stood up and smiled broadly, "Yufei truly is your mother's lucky star; she started smiling the moment you arrived."
Jian Yufei looked toward him, only then noticing his presence.
Who was he?
Nangong Xu took a few steps forward and introduced himself tenderly, "Yufei, I am your mother's husband, you can call me uncle."
Husband?!
So the man mother remarried was him...
Perhaps it's the same for any child, seeing their mother's other half not being their biological father always feels uncomfortable.
Jian Yufei also felt uncomfortable, but she still showed a polite smile, "Uncle, hello."
Nangong Xu took out a delicate box and handed it to her, "This is a gift for you, I hope you like it."
"Thank you."
Jian Yufei took it and opened—
Inside the box was a large, round, and lustrous pearl.
Jian Yufei knew that the rounder and more lustrous the pearl, the more expensive it was.
This pearl was as big as a glutinous rice ball, undoubtedly of great value.
