"Our forum mainly focuses on the academicians, I’m just a host, no need to stand out too much." Ning Youguang chuckled, "I’ve already planned to rent a gown online when the ti cos."
"No way!" Ming Jinxin firmly disagreed, "Our family’s girl can go to the most prestigious global academic forum as a host, how can she just randomly rent a gown online? What about your dad’s and my face?!"
"Alright, thanks Auntie and Dad." Hearing her aunt was on the verge of a ltdown, Ning Youguang imdiately changed her tone, "I’ll be there at 10:30 tomorrow morning."
"That’s more like it." Ming Jinxin’s tone softened, "What do you want for lunch tomorrow? I’ll have Auntie prepare it."
"Anything’s fine." Ning Youguang replied.
"What about Xiaoshi?" Ming Jinxin asked again, "If he’s on vacation, let him co along."
"Okay." Ning Youguang smiled, "I’ll ask him tonight and send you a ssage."
...
The next morning, at the Ning residence.
"I feel like everyone in my circle is loud, full of spirit, but lacking in manners. Once upon a ti, when I encountered a stubborn debater, I would certainly set things straight with them. Now, when I et one, I swiftly retreat and avoid."
Ning Youguang heard a burst of youthful laughter speaking with Ming Jinxin as she walked in.
"The young lady is here." The worker respectfully handed her slippers and took her bag.
"Young lady?" Ning Youguang asked curiously, "Auntie’s relative?"
The worker smiled and shook their head, "No, it’s Miss Fang."
"Oh." Ning Youguang nodded, "Got it, thank you."
She hadn’t seen this cousin in many years, and didn’t react at first.
"Why avoid them?" It was Ming Jinxin’s voice.
"Can’t be bothered to argue, can’t be bothered to care, spending precious ti on boring people with boring things is either foolish or lacking in love."
Ning Youguang listened carefully now and realized it indeed was Fang Han.
"Hey, Youyou’s here?" Ming Jinxin noticed Ning Youguang entering the room.
"Auntie." Ning Youguang smiled as she walked into the living room, "Cousin has ti to visit today."
"As long as I’m in Beijing, I’ll often co to see Uncle and Auntie."
Fang Han was dressed in head-to-toe Chanel, her face exquisitely and perfectly made up, sitting on the sofa looking fashionable and classy, truly a socialite.
In contrast to her ticulous outfit, Ning Youguang was much more casually dressed.
Fang Han subtly observed her plainly dressed cousin and laughed, "Youyou looks really well, how’s work been lately?"
Ning Youguang sat opposite her, "Pretty good." She smiled and complinted, "Cousin looks very beautiful today."
"Thank you." Fang Han’s face lit up a bit more with the complint.
They chatted for a few more sentences.
Ning Youyu dashed out of the room, grinning as he sidled up to Ning Youguang and said, "Sis, I knew you’d be the most punctual."
"Of course." Ning Youguang pinched her brother’s fair, chubby cheeks, "Mwah mwah."
Ning Youyu laughed and leaned over to give her a couple of kisses on the cheek.
It was the first ti Fang Han saw the interaction between the Ning siblings.
She was taken aback.
She asked Ming Jinxin, sowhat incredulously, "They’re so big but still kiss each other?"
"Xiaoyu adores his sister." Ming Jinxin laughed.
Seeing Ming Jinxin was accustod to this, Fang Han imdiately said with a smile, "They get along really well."
"Yes." Ming Jinxin nodded with a smile.
Soon, she changed the topic, "You just ntioned that actress Cai Jing in your community, what’s up with her family?"
"Oh." Fang Han adjusted her posture slightly and said animatedly, "It’s about that house in our community. Cai Jing rarely stays there; it’s her parents who live there. According to our housekeeper, every evening, her parents scavenge for recyclables in the community. Cai Jing knows about it because the property managent told her. Our housekeeper told that it’s useless for the property managent to contact Cai Jing because she gives her parents quite a bit of pocket money each month, but her parents are used to being poor and just don’t listen; their hobby is collecting garbage.
This isn’t what I wanted to emphasize. What I wanted to emphasize is that Cai Jing’s mom likes to wear dresses, the knee-length kind, and doesn’t wear a bra either!"
"In her fifties with an A cup, there’s really nothing to see, but the dresses are so thin, not to ntion the visible nipples, and there’s a bit of a jiggle, it’s too undignified!" Fang Han wrinkled her nose, "A few tis, when I bumped into her mom in the community, she cheerfully greeted . I felt so embarrassed and could only go ho and tell our housekeeper, ’I’ll sponsor her a couple of sets of underwear. Every night she wanders in the community like that, it’s so indecent. Carine Gilson, comfortable and nice to wear, I’ll buy it and you give it to her.’"
