Reborn as His Intellectually Disabled Wife-Chapter 204 - 205: Longevity Gift

Shi Yuanyuan’s face burned with a fiery sensation, and her heart grew even more wary of Bai Yuejie.

Bai Yuejie was really impressive.

She hadn’t said anything specific against her, yet just one look made her the target of everyone’s criticism.

Shi Yuanyuan was about to say something when she suddenly caught sight of a figure in the distance, her eyes lit up, "Shi Mei!"

Everyone followed Shi Yuanyuan’s gaze and saw a tall woman with short hair, looking striking in long pants and a sweater, her long black trench coat making her look tall and slim. Next to her was a pink rabbit.

The long bunny ears drooped to the sides, and today Shi Mei wore a long skirt, pink, paired with gray tights and black shoes, and a pink bunny sling bag, looking quite adorable.

Especially when she looked up, her round, large eyes seemed as if they could speak, sparklingly looking over.

As Shi Mei saw Shi Yuanyuan, her cheeks puffed up, and she huffily turned her head away.

Shi Mei looked at Ye Tiao with a tender, cute voice and crisply said, "Ye Bao, I saw the bad woman again!"

Her voice was youthful, carrying a slow complaint, like a child tattling to an adult.

Everyone exchanged glances.

How could this girl... look so naive?

Shi Yuanyuan didn’t mind and approached Ye Tiao, saying, "Since we’re here, take Shi Mei to offer birthday wishes. As the granddaughter-in-law of the Shi family, she should meet everyone."

That statement stunned everyone.

The granddaughter-in-law of the Shi family?

Her?

Seeing the astonished looks around, Ye Tiao knew that Shi Mei had achieved her goal.

He cleared his throat and said to Shi Mei, "Go on, meet them."

Shi Mei then pouted and reluctantly walked towards Old Lady Shi, chirping, "Happy birthday, Grandma! Shi Mei wishes you many more birthdays like today and lively and beautiful forever!" frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

Her voice was childlike, yet Old Lady Shi felt reassured by her words; she glanced at her and coldly responded, "Got it, go play."

Shi Mei tilted her head and said, "No, I still have a gift for Grandma!"

Saying this, her small hands clumsily opened her little rabbit bag and struggled to pull out a red box almost the size of the bag itself.

However, the box was a bit big, getting stuck at the mouth of the bag, immovable.

Shi Mei, red-faced and strained, still couldn’t pull it out.

Watching this scene, the crowd started to murmur:

"Is this really Old Lady Shi’s granddaughter-in-law?"

"It looks like... could it be..."

"I heard long ago that Mr. Shi’s father insisted Mr. Shi marry a fool, supposedly to save Mr. Shi."

"That explains it."

"Ah, it’s a pity, Mr. Shi being in the prime of his life and having to marry such a wife. If it were Miss Bai he married..."

"Shush, be careful what you say, Miss Bai is here."

...

The conversation was in low tones, but those who needed to hear, heard it.

The more Old Lady Shi listened, the angrier she got, observing Shi Mei, she said, "Enough, I’ve received your sentiment; give it to me at home."

The surroundings instantly quieted down.

And Shi Mei, suddenly wilting, puckered her lips and dared not move.

Bai Yuejie’s heart tightened slightly, unwilling to let their conversation drop just like that, and smilingly said, "Shi Mei, is it the birthday gift I helped you prepare for Grandma?"

"Oh, so even her birthday gift was prepared by Miss Bai?"

"That’s right, I just said what good birthday gift could a fool prepare on her own; others must help handle it."

"Ah... even though she became a fool trying to save Mr. Shi, Mr. Shi marrying her must also feel aggrieved."
