Chapter 317: Couple’s Necklace

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Although Xue Ni was sitting next to Shi Mo, she did not dare to sit too close to him. There was still a clear distance between them.

After all, Shi Mo had a powerful aura and no one dared to act overly presumptuous. Being able to sit by his side was already considered a big deal.

Xue Ni was consoling herself that she was much luckier than the other socialites.

However, when she turned around, she saw Fang Mo’er sitting beside Shi Mo, the edges of their clothes were touching.

When she thought about it, Shi Mo had said that she should be called ‘sister-in-law’!

Xue Ni’s heart twitched violently. Everyone else had already addressed Fang Mo’er as ‘sister-in-law’, but Xue Ni had not.

“Brother Shi, this is a gift I bought for you from overseas.”

Just then, Xue Ni suddenly brought out a gift box and handed it to Shi Mo.

She was the only one who had prepared a gift for Shi Mo.

Everyone else understood what she meant and looked at Xue Ni and Shi Mo.

In their opinion, Xue Ni was the most suitable person for Shi Mo. After all, Xue Ni was a strong person, and so was Shi Mo.

As for female starlets, they all felt that Shi Mo would only be using them to amuse himself for a period of time.

Shi Mo glanced at the gift before reaching out to take it.

Xue Ni looked at him expectantly.

However, Shi Mo casually passed it to Fang Mo’er. Fang Mo’er was momentarily stunned and subconsciously glanced at Xue Ni, whose expression had suddenly turned stiff. She felt embarrassed for the woman and even smiled, “Thank you, Miss Xue.”

Xue Ni tightened her hands that had been placed on her knees and she forced a smile, “It’s just a small gift. I don’t know if Young Master Shi will like it.”

Fang Mo’er looked at the small box in her hand. Under Shi Mo’s instructions, she slowly opened it.

She noted to herself that the packaging was quite meticulous. When she opened it, she saw a man’s necklace lying inside.

Shi Mo glanced at it but did not pay it much attention.

However, Fang Mo’er’s heart skipped a beat. She glanced at the jewelry hanging around Xue Ni’s neck. It was the same design as this necklace.

Could it be a couple’s design?

Fang Mo’er’s heart skipped a beat.

The others could tell as well. All of them stared at the necklace meaningfully.

Xue Ni ignored Fang Mo’er’s sudden realization and continued to speak to Shi Mo. “Brother Shi, please try it on. It should match your outfit.”

This time, Fang Mo’er could clearly feel Xue Ni’s hostility.

No matter how slow a woman was, she would surely feel that this person was trying to snatch her husband away.

Fang Mo’er’s expression froze and she passed the necklace to Shi Mo. She pouted and said unhappily, “This is for you.”

She wanted to see what Shi Mo would do.

If he dared to wear the couple’s necklace along with Xue Ni, he would be kneeling on the washboard1 when he got home.

Fang Mo’er thoughts were angry as she secretly pinched Shi Mo’s lower back.

Shi Mo froze and lowered his head to look at Fang Mo’er. What was wrong with her? Why had she suddenly become so angry?

When he looked at the necklace again and looked at the one on Xue Ni’s neck, he immediately understood.

Alright, she was jealous.

Shi Mo and Xue Ni had grown up together. Whenever Xue Ni saw something that he liked, she would buy one for herself as well.

Shi Mo had never thought too much about that.

He had not expected Fang Mo’er to misunderstand the situation today. However, he was still happy to see Fang Mo’er jealous.

Shi Mo looked at Xue Ni apologetically. “I’m sorry, this necklace doesn’t suit me very well.”

Fang Mo’er lowered her head. Hearing Shi Mo’s words, she felt relieved.

When she was angry earlier, she had pinched Shi Mo fiercely. Now that she thought about it, she felt that she used too much strength and her heart ached.

She secretly reached her arm back to massage his back, feeling happy in her heart.

It was all her fault for thinking too much. So many people were interested in Shi Mo. If she were to become jealous every time, wouldn’t that mean that she would become a constantly jealous person?

As long as Shi Mo’s heart was focused on her, she would be fine.

Instantly, Fang Mo’er raised her head magnanimously and looked at Xue Ni with a smile.

To Xue Ni, this smile was like a blatant mockery.

Xue Ni suppressed her anger and looked at the necklace that had been handed back to her. Then, she said awkwardly, “Actually, I didn’t mean anything by it. I’m just used to it. Miss Fang, please don’t misunderstand. If Miss Fang doesn’t like it, I’ll change it to another gift.”
