Chapter 430 Sisters 25

Xia Linfan never expected to hear such an answer. He grabbed Ning Yan's hand, which was under the table, and held it tightly.

He had only said those words yesterday to drive away the Frenchman who was after her, but hearing them come out of her mouth, his joy was overflowing.

"Oh, Ning, I thought you would give me a chance."

Ning Yan: I gave it to you. Didn't I ask you to be my tour guide for most of the day? Didn't you get enough?

She can still give him that chance if he comes to F country again next time.

Xia Linfan looked at Michel coldly. No one could take his woman away, not even the young master of the Capet family.

Ning Yan pinched the man's waist, then glared at him, her eyes practically popping out of their sockets. "Alright, let's order. It's my treat today, so order whatever you want. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

Michelle could only reluctantly order the food. Xia Linfan said, "Yanyan, you order for me. You know what I like to eat anyway."

Ning Yan: Sorry, she really didn't notice.

But she still ordered food for him.

However, the two men suffered from indigestion because of the low mood they were in. After the meal, Ning Yan quickly pulled Xia Linfan away.

The two spent a week in F country before returning home.

After returning to China, with Ning Yan's consent, Xia Linfan took Ning Yan back to the Xia family home.

Ning Yan always felt that there was a hint of grievance in the way Grandpa Xia looked at her.

Haha, she must have seen it wrong.

Then, she received a whole bunch of gifts, such as ancestral jade pendants, jade jewelry, cars, and real estate.

After that, Xia Linfan picked another day and took Ning Yan back to E City.

He found a stylist, got a haircut, ditched his suit, changed into casual clothes, and dressed up to look like a college student in his twenties.

After meeting Ning's parents, he deliberately toned down his imposing manner, and Ning's parents were indeed very satisfied with him.

He's good-looking and a perfect match for their daughter. He's also calm, polite, and patient, and a senior executive at the company. They won't have to worry about their eldest daughter in the future.

As long as they're willing to date, that's fine.

Xia Linfan originally wanted to give Ning's parents some generous gifts, but Ning Yan stopped him because it was unnecessary.

So he bought two ordinary cars as a gift, gave them a card as pocket money, and also bought them a six-bedroom, three-bathroom house, along with some ordinary gold jewelry.

When Ning's mother saw these things, her eyes widened. "We can't accept these..."

Ning Yan: "Mom, please accept it. He really went to a lot of trouble to pick these things out as gifts."

The car looks like it costs 300,000 to 400,000 yuan, but it's actually worth around 2 million yuan. I'm just afraid they won't accept it.

As for the jewelry, he chose all robust styles, and there were many pieces, which together weighed just six kilograms, not even as expensive as the diamond necklace he bought for Ning Yan.

As for houses, they're even more out of the question. Houses in E City are cheap, only a little over 10,000 yuan per square meter. Apart from villas, you can't even buy a house larger than 200 square meters here.

This set was really carefully selected.

Ning's parents were finally relieved to know that their daughter had a boyfriend, but they didn't dare to urge Ning Yan to get married.

Fearing she might develop a rebellious attitude, they let them develop freely.

Ning's mother and Ning Yan discussed whether they could hold a banquet to introduce Xia Linfan to their relatives and friends, since they had even accepted Xia's betrothal gifts.

Before Ning Yan could even speak, Xia Linfan agreed. Meeting relatives and friends meant they had officially entered into a relationship, and even if they didn't hold a wedding, no one would introduce Ning Yan to any more potential partners.

Ning Yan glared at him, but allowed him to have a little bit of his own thoughts.

Xia Linfan was secretly delighted and subtly encouraged Ning's parents to invite all their relatives, colleagues, and friends. Then, he booked the best hotel in E City.

The atmosphere that day was just as lively as a formal wedding, and each relative and friend left with an expensive gift.

Luo Guangxi came with his wife, who was an employee of his company. She was two years younger than him and seemed very shrewd.

After the banquet, Luo Guangxi wanted to talk to Ning Yan, but his wife kept a close watch on him, and in the end, he couldn't stand alone in front of Ning Yan.

However, Luo's parents pulled Ning Yan aside and reminisced for a while.

"Yanyan, Auntie really always thought you would become my daughter-in-law, but now that you've found such an excellent partner, Auntie is relieved."

"You're so outstanding, you deserve to marry the best man!"

She heard from her daughter-in-law that Yan Yan's boyfriend was the president of the Xia Group. The president was far more outstanding than her son, and he was also better looking than her son.

The two young people look very well-matched standing together, so it's no wonder that Yan Yan doesn't like her son; her own son simply can't compare.

Ning Yan: "Thank you, Aunt Luo. Your daughter-in-law is also great. She's a career woman, smart and with a good job. I wonder how many people envy you."

Mrs. Luo was pleased by her coaxing and immediately smiled.

She wasn't the type to always look down on others; her daughter-in-law was indeed excellent, and moreover, she was already pregnant after only six months of marriage, which made her happier than anything else.

After seeing the guests off, Xia Linfan pinched her waist and asked, "I heard you and that guy surnamed Luo are childhood sweethearts?"

Ning Yan curled her lip, her tone somewhat disdainful, "Just because they live in the same building, does that mean they're childhood sweethearts?"

He was three years older than Ning Shi and me. We only went to elementary school together for a few years, but it was with several other kids.

He is indeed very good at studying, but I am better than him.

Moreover, I'm focused solely on my studies and have absolutely no interest in dating.

As for other things, Ning Yan wouldn't talk to men about them.

She always felt that if someone truly liked another person, they wouldn't secretly have a relationship with someone else. If Luo Guangxi said he liked the original owner of this body or her, she would feel disgusted.

After the banquet, Xia Linfan and Ning Yan stayed in E City for a few more days and took the opportunity to inspect the branch office.

Ning's parents have been in a particularly good mood these past few days, praising Xia Linfan to the skies in front of Ning Yan.

So much so that they were extremely reluctant to part when the two of them left.

After returning to Beijing, Xia Linfan continued to send things to E City, ensuring that there was nothing lacking in food, drink, or clothing. So every time Ning's parents called, they would hint that Xia Linfan should get married soon, as they, as parents, would not object.

Xia Linfan would always agree with a smile and then go about her business.

As for what he was thinking, he never said it aloud.

However, Ning Yan had a record that every time President Xia received a call from Ning's mother, he would become fierce that night. Of course, the premise of his fierceness was that he would not hurt her. He would also work out hard. In the years they were together, President Xia's figure did not change at all. He was always so strong and healthy.

Three years later, Xia Chu and Ke Yibai held a grand wedding.

Ning Yan attended the wedding as a member of Xia Chu's "maternal family".

There was no other way; this was Xia Chu's insistence. Even though his uncle had repeatedly asked him to call Ning Yan "Auntie" in private, he would still call Ning Yan "Sister" when his uncle wasn't around.

"Sister, this glass is for you. My gratitude is all in this drink."

In the winter of the same year Ning Yan graduated with her master's degree, Xia Chu was kidnapped.

He escaped by relying on the techniques Ning Yan taught him, and his years of training had not been in vain.

Ning Yan picked up her glass and said, "Live a good life with Bai Bai. Don't learn other men's bad habits. Remember this: those who love their wives will prosper, while those who mistreat their wives will never have any wealth."

After saying that, she lowered her head to drink, but the smell of alcohol suddenly made her feel nauseous.

Xia Linfan, who was standing next to her, said anxiously, "Yanyan, what's wrong? Don't be afraid, I'll take you to the hospital right away."

Ning Yan wanted to say that she was fine, but Xia Linfan had already picked her up and rushed outside.

An hour later, he received the test results: Ning Yan was pregnant, one and a half months along.

Xia Linfan was stunned when he heard the result. He stood in front of Ning Yan like a pillar, holding the ultrasound report as if it were a rare treasure.

Ning Yan sat on a chair in the waiting room. Seeing that he hadn't moved for a long time, she helplessly nudged his leg. The next second, Xia Linfan knelt down on one knee in front of Ning Yan. "Yan Yan, I know you don't want to get married or have children, but I beg you, this child is already here. Let's have him, okay?"

I promise you, just focus on getting pregnant and giving birth safely. You don't need to worry about anything else. I'll personally take care of the child and won't let you suffer any hardship.

Ning Yan: I don't know why, but I suddenly felt a little touched, and my heart softened.

She patted the man's head and then nodded in agreement: "Okay."

Xia Linfan excitedly picked her up and carefully carried her back to the car. She was on the phone the whole way, her voice filled with an excitement she had never heard before.

The first thing Grandpa Xia said after receiving the call was, "Even if I die right now, I can rest in peace! Oh my, I'm finally going to hold my grandson again, or a granddaughter, anything is fine!"

Upon returning home, Xia Linfan immediately transferred all the cash he had to Ning Yan.

Eight months later, after his child was born, he hired a lawyer to give all his fixed assets and various stocks to his beloved son.

Well, from then on, the president of Xia's Group became penniless and turned into an employee.

But he has a son now, and he's happy every day. Anyone who sees him can tell he's in such a good mood.

Grandpa Xia also divided his fixed assets in two, giving half to his eldest grandson and half to his youngest grandson.

Little Xia Qian was born sitting on a mountain of gold.

Ning Yan and Xia Linfan spent their lives together, and Xia Linfan doted on her throughout her life.
