Fake It Till You Make It (and Find Your Real Family) Chapter 36

Chapter 36 Pink Bedroom

On this side, Ji Yuanxi, the second aunt, was surprised when she heard Mu Xiwan’s score. She asked curiously, “Wanwan, you were only two points away from a perfect score? How are you so good! Jinghan, look at how good your sister Wanwan is, you should learn from her!”

You know, the children of the Mu family were all considered quite intelligent, but in Ji Yuanxi’s eyes, none of the children who grew up in the Mu family were as intelligent as Mu Xiwan.

Among the children in the family, Mu Jinchen, who had the best grades, was also the top scorer in the college entrance examination, but when he took the college entrance examination, he scored over 730 points, still a few points lower than Wanwan.

Unexpectedly, Wanwan was so outstanding, only two points away from a perfect score, and this child wasn’t even raised in the Mu family. It seemed that the genes of the eldest brother and his wife were good, their children were not only good-looking but also incredibly intelligent.

Mu Jinghan heard his mother praise Mu Xiwan, he pouted and said nonchalantly, “Mom, I’m already in the top ten of my class, okay? You should learn to be content!”

He would not learn from this newly arrived cousin. What good was studying well? It was all useless if you didn’t have good character.

“You stinky boy, you still have the nerve to say that with your grades. You can’t be as good as your sister Wanwan, and you still have so many excuses. You’re spoiled!”

Mu Hongye was unhappy after hearing his son’s words.

Old Master Mu ignored them. He smiled at Mu Xiwan and said, “Wanwan, you should be filling out your application form soon. Which school are you thinking of applying to?”

Mu Hongtao, who was beside him, also smiled and said, “That’s right, Wanwan, now you can choose any university in the country, whichever school you want to apply to, apply to that school! Don’t feel pressured!”

He could afford to raise his daughter, even if he had to raise her for a lifetime, it wouldn’t be a problem. Moreover, Wanwan was truly capable!

Mu Xiwan smiled at Old Master Mu and said, “Grandpa, I want to apply to Peking University!”

“Is that so? That’s good, then you can be in the same school as your fourth and fifth brothers!” Old Master Mu turned to Mu Jinghao and said, “Little Five, you and your fourth brother must take good care of your sister when you’re at school, understand?”

Mu Jinghao, who was suddenly called out, was momentarily stunned. However, facing Old Master Mu’s sharp gaze, he dared not say anything, so he nodded obediently. In his heart, he secretly muttered, whether he would take care of her or not, wouldn’t it still be up to him?

Old Master Mu didn’t ask Mu Xiwan what major she wanted to choose. The Mu family didn’t need Wanwan to support them, so Old Master Mu thought that she should apply to whatever she liked. Even if Mu Xiwan didn’t go to school, the Mu family could support her for a lifetime, after all, all the children of the Mu family would have shares in the family business.

Thinking about this, Old Master Mu turned to Mu Hongtao and said, “Eldest, after Wanwan graduates from college, don’t forget to give her her shares, and also, the allowance that belongs to her over the years, give it to her tomorrow.”

Old Master Mu then instructed his police officers to get his bank card and handed it to Mu Xiwan: “Girl, here is a million, take it as pocket money. When you run out, tell Grandpa.”

Mu Xiwan saw the bank card handed to her and smiled as she refused, “Grandpa, that’s too much. Besides, I can earn money myself!” Her face showed sincerity and a hint of awkwardness. After all, she had never been treated so generously by anyone in her life.

Old Master Mu heard Mu Xiwan’s words and couldn’t help but feel a little heartbroken, pity. The Mu family’s education for their children was indeed strict, but no matter how strict it was, they never stopped their children’s allowance.

But this child was so young and had to earn money to support herself. If she had grown up in the Mu family, how could the Mu family bear to let her suffer even a little bit!

Thinking about this, Old Master Mu forcefully held Mu Xiwan’s hand and put the bank card into her palm: “Girl, take it. It’s Grandpa’s heart. Also, now that you’ve come home, just focus on your studies and don’t think about earning money. If you run out of money, just tell us, okay?”

Mu Xiwan looked at Old Master Mu’s forceful attitude, and her heart warmed. She knew that the Mu family was wealthy, but she felt that she already had the ability to earn money, so she was embarrassed to take money from her elders.

However, in order to avoid worrying her grandfather, Mu Xiwan obediently accepted the bank card and smiled, “Thank you, Grandpa!”

Old Master Mu was also happy to see Mu Xiwan accept his bank card. He usually went to bed early, but this day, he stayed up late chatting with Mu Xiwan.

Until it was very late, Mu Hongtao, worried about his old father’s health, smiled and said to Old Master Mu, “Dad, it’s quite late today. Why don’t we all go to rest? Anyway, Wanwan is back and won’t leave again, we’ll have plenty of time to talk later, right?”

Old Master Mu knew that his son was concerned about his health, but he also thought that what his son said made sense, so he asked everyone to go to their rooms to rest. Thus, the lively welcome gathering came to an end.

Jiang Xingman had wanted to take Mu Xiwan to her bedroom to see it since just now. Mu Xiwan’s bedroom was cleaned by the maids every day. Even though Mu Hongtao and Jiang Xingman hadn’t lived in the old house for years, Old Master Mu and Mrs. Mu also thought that the maids should clean it every day.

Knowing that Mu Xiwan would be coming back today, Old Master Mu, after hanging up the phone call with Mu Hongtao at noon, asked the maids to change the sheets and duvet cover for Mu Xiwan’s room.

The distribution of living spaces in the Mu family’s old house was as follows: Old Master Mu and Mrs. Mu lived on the first floor, the three brothers Mu Hongtao lived on the second floor, and the younger generation was divided between the third and fourth floors.

Mu Xiwan’s room was in the middle of the third floor. Jiang Xingman led Mu Xiwan to the bedroom door. Jiang Xingman opened the door, and the first thing that caught her eye was a pink princess-style room.

Jiang Xingman smiled and said, “We decorated it ourselves when you weren’t even born, Wanwan. Take a look and see if you like it. If you don’t, we’ll redecorate it!”

The bedroom was full of pink, the kind of pink bedroom that Mu Xiwan had always envied and wanted to have when she was a child. Even though she was past the age of liking pink and dolls, seeing this warm and cozy pink room, she couldn’t help but feel a little excited and moved.

After all, what she didn’t have in the Su family, her biological parents had already prepared for her before she was even born!

Although Mu Xiwan didn’t like pink as much now, she still couldn’t bear to erase this love that belonged to her parents. So Mu Xiwan turned around and smiled at Jiang Xingman, “Mom, I love it. No need to redecorate.”

Jiang Xingman could see that her daughter was indeed very satisfied with the room, so she smiled and said, “Okay, Wanwan, it’s very late today, you should go to bed early. Good night, Mom’s darling!”

Jiang Xingman walked forward and gave Mu Xiwan a gentle hug. Actually, she didn’t want to leave Mu Xiwan. She was afraid that this was a dream and that when she woke up, everything would be gone.

Mu Xiwan, who was embraced by Jiang Xingman, also gently hugged her back and said softly, “Mom, good night!”

After Jiang Xingman went out, Mu Xiwan threw herself on the soft and cozy bed. She felt like she was dreaming all day.

She had also imagined what it would be like to find her family, but as she grew older, she gradually stopped fantasizing. She even thought rationally that if her biological parents weren’t good to her, she would cut off ties with them and live with Xiaohua in this world.

Xiaohua? Mu Xiwan only thought of it now. When her eldest brother went to the rental house to pick her up this morning, Xiaohua flew away again.

Fortunately, she hadn’t closed the window on the balcony. She didn’t know if Xiaohua would be anxious when it couldn’t find her back home. It was already very late today, so she would have to look for it tomorrow.
