Chapter 134 The parties involved were unaware
"Oh, who's got such a sweet tongue, praising someone to their face instead of to their face!"
The smiling boy gracefully stepped over the sofa and handed the flower-shaped object in his hand to the girl.
Yunxia took a bite; it was fluffy and instantly melted into sugar threads, sweetening her to the core. "Wow, so sweet! Thanks!"
"No need to thank me, we're like family, I haven't even eaten yet!"
After saying that, he tore off a large piece and stuffed it into his mouth without any regard for his image, leaving the girl stunned!
"Cousin, where did this beauty come from? She's bewitched you, and you've been protecting her all the way here. Now she's just being sent away like that."
With a charmingly naive tone, she uttered sarcastic words. Her tone was somewhat familiar. Yunxia peeked out and froze on the spot, thinking to herself, "What a small world! Isn't this Chen Feier who threw a tantrum in the winter plum grove?"
At this moment, the girl in the yellow coat also saw who was sitting on the sofa. Her brows furrowed so deeply they could trap a mosquito. She took Lan Ling's arm and said coquettishly, "Auntie, my uncle is the richest man in Jiangcheng. What are the security guards doing? They let just any Tom, Dick, or Harry in."
After saying that, he glanced at the girl defiantly, raising his head like a victorious rooster.
Lan Ling brushed her hand away, stood up and sat next to Yun Xia, took her small hand and said with a smile, "Fei'er, you come from the countryside and don't know some of the rules. Your aunt doesn't blame you, but... sigh, Rou'er has spoiled you. You dare to say anything without thinking. Xia Xia is my goddaughter. She came to see me today. Quickly apologize to her."
Her words shocked everyone present. The husky stared wide-eyed at the girl in disbelief. Yun Xia shook her head slightly, indicating that as the person involved, she really knew nothing about the matter of recognizing a godparent. Suddenly, she felt a touch in her palm and turned her head to see Aunt Lan winking at her.
"Ah...yes, godmother, I'm hungry. I wonder how Aunt Qu's cooking is going!"
Since they had already called her "godmother," the Chen siblings had no choice but to believe it. Chen Yifan stepped forward and said, "So we're from the same family. It's true what they say, 'No fight, no friendship.' I hope Miss Xiaxia won't hold a grudge about what happened last time!"
The saying "One doesn't hit a smiling face" applies to even a polite young nobleman. Yun Xia rolled her eyes at the girl in the yellow coat and said, "Not at all, it was just that I accidentally stepped on Sister Fei'er's foot first, so I deserved to be scolded. But to frame someone after failing to harass a respectable man is really a bit..."
The Feng family had no daughters, and her own mother made her stay so that she could curry favor with the Feng couple. Taking advantage of the holiday and the large number of people, she was to propose the matter of becoming godparents in public. However, the fruit she had been eyeing for so long was snatched away by someone else. How could she not be angry?
"Nonsense, it's his luck that I've taken a liking to him. Humph, you two don't even look like siblings. Who knows what kind of shady business a young man and woman would have in the plum grove during the New Year?"
"Fei'er, apologize now!" With the woman's innocence at stake, Lan Ling disregarded her composure and stood up to scold her angrily.
Snap!
Chen Feier covered her right cheek and looked at the boy in disbelief. "Cousin, waah, you actually slapped me for an outsider."
Chen Yifan frowned slightly, his eyes showing displeasure. He stepped forward and put his arm around his younger sister. "I'm sorry, Fei'er is a bit spoiled. I've spoiled her. Xiaxia, I apologize to you on her behalf."
"Heh heh, an apology is enough. What's the point of having a legal team? Chen Feier, if you ever slander someone again, the Feng family's legal team will be waiting outside in suits."
"Cousin, did I say something wrong? A man and a woman alone together... Waaah!"
Chen Yifan glared at her and immediately covered her mouth, afraid that she would say something offensive again.
“Respecting teachers is a tradition that has been passed down for thousands of years. The delinquent you mentioned is my private tutor. By saying this, you are slandering my master.”
Goodness gracious! Jiang Chao's generation has jumped up, instantly making him two generations younger than his younger brother Jiang An.
The wolf-like gaze sent a chill down Chen Feier's spine. She glanced at Yun Xia, then, with her brother's help, went upstairs to rest.
"Ah Ling, Fei'er is a girl after all. Slapping her in public is too embarrassing for her." That's what Lan Ling said, but she was secretly pleased because she had wanted to do it for a long time.
"Mom, your cousin, who is born into a wealthy family, is causing trouble in the Feng family. My dad doesn't care, but why are you spoiling her?"
"Spoil him? Ha, would I dare to scold him? If I did, your dad would give me a dirty look, turning a blind eye to our relationship. I don't think he understands anything!"
Realizing that he was truly angry, Yunxia quickly said, "Aunt Lan, Uncle is a man, he's easily offended, how could he argue with a little girl? School starts in just a few days after the New Year, and students will naturally prioritize their studies!"
Sending people back to Fengcheng in the spring was also Lan Ling's plan. Hearing this, her anger subsided slightly, and she chuckled, teasingly saying, "You little rascal, you still call me Aunt Lan?"
The girl paused for a moment, then tactfully asked, "God...mother?"
Good heavens, if Jiang Chao finds out that I went out to visit relatives and found a godmother, he'll definitely chase me down with a slipper and beat me up.
Having adopted a goddaughter, he now has a son and a daughter, making his life complete. He took off the bracelet, put it on the girl's wrist, and said seriously, "It's so pretty. Don't take it off, or I'll get angry."
The pinkish-purple jade bracelet had a warm luster, a clear and bright texture, and a rich yet elegant color. Even someone unfamiliar with jade would know it was no ordinary piece. Just as she was about to refuse, she caught a glimpse of the husky frantically winking at her and quickly changed her mind, saying, "Then thank you very much, godmother. Here, this is a beauty cream I specially made. It's quite effective at reducing wrinkles and whitening the skin. I'm giving it to you."
Luckily, I prepared this little gift beforehand, otherwise I really wouldn't have anything to return the favor with.
The box is small and exquisite, decorated with blue diamonds, showing great care. After unscrewing it, a light pink clay paste is revealed, emitting a strong rose fragrance. Applying a little to the fingertip and then to the wrist leaves it moisturized and shiny, with a pleasant aroma.
"Little Butterfly, you're being unfair! I've begged you for so long for this beauty cream, but you still won't give it to me. Humph, I'm angry!" With that, the boy turned his head away, his lips pouting so much they could hang an oil bottle on them.
"Big brother, you're a boy. Your skin is too fair and delicate, it will make you lose your masculinity... cough cough, I mean your sunny disposition!"
"Hey, Xiaxia, according to what A-Ling said, this beauty cream is very effective?" Lan Ling, having successfully grasped the key point, asked excitedly.
"Of course, Mom, do you remember the scar on my calf? It was a palm-sized burn mark. I applied Little Butterfly's special scar removal cream, and after three months, it's completely gone. If you don't believe me, I'll lift it up and show you."
After saying that, the boy rolled up his pants and woolen trousers, revealing his smooth and fair calves to the two of them. Lan Ling leaned forward and touched them, exclaiming, "It's amazing! All the dermatologists said that apart from skin grafts, burn scars would probably never heal. I never thought that a little scar removal cream could heal them."
"Yes, Little Butterfly has a secret recipe that she never shares!"
Lan Ling silently put away the beauty cream, thinking to herself that such a good thing should not be seen by outsiders. It would be awkward to give it to someone else or not.
The beauty cream with added green water is bound to be incredibly effective, and Aunt Wu's increasingly fair and tender face is the best example of that.
