"Yes, it's an invitation sent by Che Ranran's grandmother." Nie Xunhuan added a broccoli to his mouth and chewed slowly.
"Is the gift ready?" Nie's father seemed to be very concerned about this matter and asked about some details.
"Yes." Nie Xunhuan nodded and didn't tell him what was prepared.
"What engagement party is my uncle having? Can I go?" Nie Xuewei asked shamelessly.
The dining table suddenly became quiet.
Only Nie Xunhuan was eating slowly.
Father Nie glanced at Nie Xunhuan secretly, and said to ease the atmosphere: "A business friend is getting engaged, so I asked Xunhuan to go and take a look."
Nie Xunhuan frowned unhappily. The company and Che Yuran had no business dealings. If you ask why Che Yuran invited her, it was partly because of Bo Junyi, and partly because she had a good relationship with Che Yuran's grandmother. There was nothing about the company.
She didn't understand why Father Nie would lie like this.
"I want to go too. Since it's the company's business, it's my business. Don't you think so, uncle?" Nie Xuewei behaved very well in front of Father Nie. She
was not arrogant at all in private.
Nie Xunhuan knew that she was scheming, and knew that both men and elders liked obedient girls.
Before, she would throw a tantrum in front of Nie's father, but that was to show it to the servants, so that they would know that she was the only one who had the final say in this family.
From then on, she would slowly move everything about Nie Xuewei to private, and in front of Nie's father, she would try her best to maintain the composure and dignity of the eldest daughter of the Nie family.
"No, you are still too young." Nie's father was still worried about Nie Xunhuan.
Nie Xuewei was unhappy and pouted, "Uncle, I won't make trouble, I will just follow my cousin, okay?"
Nie's father turned to look at Nie Xunhuan and asked for her opinion.
At that moment, Nie Xunhuan smiled.
If her father really loved her, how could he allow Nie Xuewei to go to that kind of banquet with him.
The good guy is too good to others.
Nie Han became angrier and angrier as he listened. He slammed his chopsticks on the table and angrily said, "Dad, what do you mean by this? My sister finally managed to revive the company, and you brought back such a thing. You let it bully my sister. Are you not going to recognize us? If you want such a woman to take care of you until the end of your life, then my sister and I will move out tomorrow!"
Nie's father was speechless. Every word of Nie Han's words pierced his heart.
Anya was a little frightened, but she also felt that Nie's father had gone too far.
It was really unwise to push the problem to Nie Xunhuan. What could she, a girl, say?
And it was her sister. If she said she couldn't go, Nie Xuewei would definitely say that Nie Xunhuan was jealous of her.
"Then no one should go." Nie's father suddenly became angry.
Nie Han was dumbfounded. It was the first time he saw his father being this kind of person.
Nie Xunhuan sneered, with a hint of sharpness in his tender and charming manner, "Originally, Grandma Che invited me to go in a private capacity. Dad, if you can get her invitation letter, let alone let me bring her, I can bring ten more people."
The dinner table was silent.
Nie's father's face flushed.
"Anya, I want to try on clothes, come with me." Nie Xunhuan put down his chopsticks and gave Anya a meaningful smile.
Anya understood, "Okay."
The two left the table together and returned to the room.
Nie Han glared at Nie Xuewei fiercely and followed.
Nie Xuewei still had an innocent look on her face, "Uncle, did I say something wrong?"
But Nie's father shook his head gently and ate the already cold rice slowly.
Nie Xuewei was filled with dissatisfaction. She thought that Nie's father would agree to anything she wanted as long as she used sweet words to coax him, but now it seems that this is not the case.
Her biggest obstacle is Nie's pursuit of pleasure.
Anya came to Nie's room and found that her room was surrounded by gray grass green and light smoky blue, which is the most popular minimalist style nowadays.
"You and I think differently." Anya stood in front of her easel, looking at an unfinished landscape painting, and said thoughtfully.
Nie Xunhuan took out the little black dress from the shopping bag, took off the outer packaging bag, and smiled softly, "Not as gorgeous as you imagined?"
"Yeah." Anya nodded slightly, she judged people by appearance.
Nie Xunhuan's appearance really didn't look like a fairy who was detached from the world, but more like a proud peony.
Nie Xunhuan smiled lightly, took the clothes and walked into the cloakroom to change.
After a while, she came out after changing. The latest little black dress on her body gave people a fatal temptation.
The thin arms, slender and well-proportioned legs, and charming and graceful style were really beautiful.
Anya gave a thumbs up without hesitation, "It looks good. How about the shoes? Which pair do you want?"
"Black is fine, a little more low-key." She didn't want to steal the show.
Anya knew that she wanted to reduce her presence, but she felt that as long as Nie Xunhuan went, she would not be regarded as an invisible person.
Nie Xunhuan picked a pair of thin-heeled high-heeled shoes from the cloakroom and put them on her feet. She turned around in front of the mirror and sighed, "So, after seeing the scene today, do you still want to add my dad?"
Anya's face suddenly turned red, a little shy and a little worried, "This scene is nothing to me. The most important thing is that your father doesn't like me."
In fact, Nie Xunhuan also felt that Nie's father was really not attracted to Anya.
The so-called consideration is also out of courtesy.
But what's the point of flirting if you don't marry her? It's just wasting time.
"I like you very much, and I want you to be my stepmother, but people can't be so selfish and force others to do something just because they like you. I respect your decision." Nie Xunhuan rolled up her long hair, looked at herself in the mirror, and smiled with satisfaction.
"Xuhuan, if you need my help, I will do my best to help you." Anya looked at Nie Xunhuan coldly and said with confidence.
Nie Xunhuan smiled lightly, "It's a family matter. If you marry my dad, I will let you stay by my side even if you don't want to, but you are an outsider after all."
Anya understood her concerns. Without the identity of Nie's wife, she couldn't help Nie Xunhuan.
Seeing her in such a dilemma, Nie Xunhuan said with a smile: "Don't think about it. Have you prepared your clothes? Go with me tomorrow."
"Yes, but I still think you should find a male companion."
"Why are you afraid of misunderstanding?" Nie Xunhuan looked at Anya with a smile. She was not afraid.
Before, in order to help Yan Zichen, she also pretended to be Lace.
"Why would I be afraid?" Anya straightened her body. "If you stand upright, you don't have to worry about your shadow being crooked. I'll go with you!"
"Then it's settled." Nie Xunhuan took off her high heels and went back to the cloakroom to change clothes.
