Facing Ada's question, Lan Xiaolan just lowered her eyes and remained silent.
Who am I, where do I come from, where am I going, and what kind of person should I become? These are ancient philosophical questions.
Lan Xiaolan couldn't explain the proposition clearly, which even philosophers couldn't explain, and she didn't know how to answer Ada.
"Grandpa Tingxi's birthday is this weekend, and I want to go see him with him."
"This is also my first time officially going to the Ren family, and I don't know what to wear."
"Oh? Is it that stubborn, eccentric old man from the Ren family?"
Lan Xiaolan raised her eyebrows and curled her lips, smiling slightly: "He is Tingxi's grandfather, and is considered the oldest and most respected elder in the Ren family. You describe him like this, aren't you afraid that others will give you a hard time?"
"What are you afraid of? Besides, this isn't my description. It's how he described himself. Everyone here knows it."
"Ah! Is Tingxi's grandfather really such a person?"
Ada nodded.
Lan Xiaolan was a little scared. Meeting Ren Tingxi's parents was already a difficult task for her, and now she had to deal with a grandfather like this. She really didn't know how to deal with it.
"Is Grandpa a difficult person to get along with?"
"Who knows? The old man has been living in seclusion in the mountains for over 30 years since his wife's death. Not only do he dislike outsiders, he even dislikes members of the Ren family."
"He has been out of touch with the world for many years. It was only more than ten years ago when I went with my master to deliver a box of clothes to him that I had the honor of meeting him."
"So, what does Grandpa look like? What kind of person is he?"
If you want others to accept you, especially the elders, it is always a good idea to please them.
"Do you know Baldy Wang?"
"Huh? What is that?"
"Bald Qiang! The Bald Qiang who spends all day chopping trees in the mountains and forests."
"Huh? Yeah, yeah, I know."
"The old man of the Ren family looks like that."
Lan Xiaolan couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Are you serious?"
"Of course, what I saw with my own eyes could not be false."
"But what can I do? It's my first time meeting Grandpa, and I was thinking of trying to please him by dressing like a lady, a lady from a wealthy family, or something cute and pretty. But now that you say that..."
"I can't possibly go meet Tingxi's grandfather dressed like a bear."
Now Ada and her assistant burst into laughter.
"Second Madam, you are such an interesting person."
"Stop laughing, everyone. Since you're all famous and professional fashion designers, you should be the ones helping me figure out what to do."
Ada's face fell, and in an instant she became serious and professional.
"We've been walking for so long. Is there anything here that you're interested in or that you'd like to see?"
Lan Xiaolan looked around carefully and shook her head.
"It's okay, no rush, there's more inside, let's go shopping."
Ada led Lan Xiaolan through one designed scene after another, occasionally passing by groups of three or four. They all looked at Lan Xiaolan curiously and whispered to each other.
"I wonder which rich girl has the presence of mind to get Ada to come out in person?"
"Who else could it be? Ada signed a contract to sell herself to the Ren family. Who else could let her go except the Ren family?"
"The Ren family only has two sons and no daughters. Besides, it's not like we haven't seen Madam Ren and their eldest wife before. This girl is dressed so casually, I really can't remember who she is in the Ren family."
"Isn't the second son of the Ren family still married? I heard that he and the Ling family had a childhood engagement. Could this girl be his fiancée?"
"I've seen the daughter of the Ling family. She's very delicate and pretty, and her clothes are all high-end designer brands. When I met her, the bag she was holding was the latest Hermès model at the time, worth seven figures."
"This girl doesn't look like the daughter of the Ling family at all."
The gossip always reached Lan Xiaolan's ears, making her embarrassed.
"Did Ling Muxue also ask you to design clothes before?"
When Ada heard Ling Muxue's name, she felt uncomfortable all over.
In the past, Ling Muxue always liked to use various reasons to ask Ada to help her with her clothing choices.
In the past, because Ling Muxue was rumored to be Ren Tingxi's fiancée, Ada was a subordinate of the Ren family, so she had to do things according to Ling Muxue's mood.
But now, she already knew that Ren Tingxi's wife, the second wife of the Ren family, Ren Tingxi, was someone else, so she no longer had to serve Ling Muxue, and she no longer had to do things according to her mood.
"She is the spokesperson for the Ren Group, so she inevitably needs to attend some commercial events on behalf of the Ren Group. Sometimes I will go along to help out."
Ada spoke very politely. It would be more accurate to say that it was Ling Muxue who used Ren Tingxi's identity to force her to go every time rather than saying that she went along.
"Ling Muxue, what kind of person is she?"
"She's a terrible person."
"You don't seem to like her very much."
"She's just one of the many guests. It doesn't matter whether she likes or dislikes me."
"Let's not talk about her anymore. Let's go shopping."
If we go any further, there will be no more road to go.
"But there's nowhere to go."
