Chapter 353 Ning Xuan is our Bai family
Yu Mingche hosted this family dinner. Jiuwei and his men were responsible for preparing the food for the banquet, while most of the others prepared programs. At this family dinner, Ning Xuan clearly told everyone else that Yu Mingche had the right to take charge of household affairs on her behalf.
This announcement can be said to have clarified Yu Mingche's status as the legal husband. Ying Yaoshi, who participated in the family dinner via video link, did not raise any questions.
After the family dinner, Lin Mo left first and returned to the headquarters of the Second Legion. Chen Nan went back to the Chen family to visit relatives, Di Youlin went back to the Di family to visit relatives, and Yu Mingche was busy with official duties and almost never came home during the day. Only Lan Xin and Yun Han were left at home to accompany Ning Xuan.
On this day, Lan Xin and Yun Han accompanied Ning Xuan shopping in the Federal Building. The three of them were dressed very low-key. Lan Xin and Yun Han also wore veils to avoid attracting too much attention due to their outstanding appearance. At noon, the three of them chose a restaurant and planned to have dinner.
"Bai Xiuying, Second Miss Bai, your Bai family is now barely ranked at the bottom of the second-rate families at best. Why are you putting on airs like a noble lady here? You are so capable, but your fiancé who was engaged to you was snatched away by someone else." A high-pitched female voice shouted.
"Nonsense, I didn't." Bai Xiuying retorted angrily, but unfortunately her rebuttal had no strength at all and instead caused more people to laugh at her.
"You're still being stubborn. Young Master Chen Nan from the Chen family was originally your fiancé. How come it's been so long and you haven't married Young Master Chen home yet? I heard that Chen Nan was the first contractor of Miss Ning Xuanning, who was awarded the title of Master Alchemist."
"Chen Hao, tell everyone, am I right?" The young woman who had started to bully Bai Xiuying grabbed a timid, handsome man and asked.
"Yes, the master of the contract is right. My cousin Chen Nan is Miss Ning's contractor. For my cousin, Miss Ning Xuan also gave the improved formula of the body-refining potion to the head of the family. Our Chen family's business is now growing, and it is all thanks to Miss Ning Xuan." The man named Chen Hao answered quickly and calmly.
"Chen Hao, I heard that your cousin is at home visiting relatives recently, why don't you ask him to come out and play with you." Another young lady said.
"No, my cousin won't come out." Chen Hao quickly shook his head and refused.
"Ms. Cao, your contractor is a little ignorant. How could he refuse without even trying? Does he look down on me?" said the young lady who spoke earlier unhappily.
With a "pa" sound, Chen Hao was slapped on the back of the head by Cao Yulan, "Hurry up and call your cousin, tell him you are drunk and ask him to pick you up. If you don't call your cousin over today, I will show you how I will deal with you." Cao Yulan raised her eyebrows and angrily scolded Chen Hao.
The young lady who just spoke was called Jin Shanshan. She was a daughter of the first-class noble Jin family, which was much more powerful than their Cao family. Cao Yulan had finally gotten in touch with Jin Shanshan, and was hoping to gain some benefits from the Jin family's business network. How dare she offend her?
"That's great. When Chen Nan comes, we'll see if we can bring him and Bai Xiuying, the engaged couple, together and let them rekindle their love. Do you think this is a good idea?" Jin Shanshan clapped her hands and laughed.
While Chen Hao was still hesitating, Cao Yulan, in full view of everyone, pulled out the whip from her waist and whipped him hard.
Chen Hao was beaten so hard that he kept screaming. Another woman beside Bai Xiuying couldn't help but jump out and said, "Stop it, Cao Yulan. Chen Hao is a member of the Chen family after all. You are a slap in the face of the Chen family by abusing him like this in public. Aren't you afraid that the Chen family will cause trouble for you?"
After being reminded of this, Cao Yulan hesitated and stopped.
"What are you afraid of? As a contractor, daring to disobey the contractor's master is a crime of disrespect. How can Miss Cao disciplining her contractor be a slap in the face of the Chen family? Miss Bai Liu, you are exaggerating." Jin Shanshan was watching the fun with great interest and retorted to Miss Bai Liu with dissatisfaction.
Cao Yulan heard that Jin Shanshan was right. She was just disciplining her contractor. What did it have to do with others? What did it have to do with the Chen family?
Cao Yulan leaned over and whispered a few words in Chen Hao's ear. After hearing these words, Chen Hao couldn't help but tremble. He bit his lip and under the coercion of Cao Yulan, he made a voice call to Chen Nan.
The call was quickly connected. Chen Hao followed Cao Yulan's request and said to Chen Nan, "Brother, I'm at Qianjin Restaurant in the Federal Building. I'm drunk. Can you come pick me up?"
When Chen Nan heard Chen Hao's request, he was a little hesitant, but unable to resist Chen Hao's repeated requests, Chen Nan finally agreed.
When Bai Xiuying heard Chen Nan say that he would be there soon, her face changed drastically. She wanted to slip away quickly, but was blocked by Jin Shanshan.
"Bai Xiuying, Chen Nan is a very good spirit controller and should be a good match for you. You two were originally in an engaged contract relationship. Today, we are here to help you and allow you to renew your relationship. Such a good thing, why are you running away?" Jin Shanshan looked at Bai Xiuying with a playful expression.
Bai Xiuying looked like she was about to cry. She had met Ning Xuan and knew that she was not someone to be trifled with. These people were clearly trying to make fun of her. Bai Xiuying's frightened expression made Jin Shanshan laugh.
Jin Shanshan and others laughed wildly, attracting others to look over here frequently.
"Second sister, don't bother with them. Cao Yulan, Jin Shanshan, I tell you, Ning Xuan has the blood of our Bai family in her body. If you keep bullying the Bai family like this, be careful that Ning Xuan will come back and settle accounts with you in the future." Miss Bai Liu shouted at Cao Yulan angrily.
Cao Yulan looked at Jin Shanshan with some suspicion. Ning Xuan's reputation was there. Although she was just an orphan, all of her contractors were very powerful. Their Cao family couldn't afford to offend her.
"What did you say? Ning Xuan has the blood of your Bai family? I heard that it was Ning Xuan who was responsible for Bai Ruilan's accident." Jin Shanshan looked at Miss Bai Liu with disdain.
When Bai Xiuzhu heard this, her face turned panic-stricken. She had also heard about this, but she didn't want to believe it.
"Who told you these nonsense? My grandmother got into trouble because she was old and got angry. What does it have to do with Ning Xuan? Ning Xuan is the daughter of my seventh uncle Bai Xiuwen. She is originally a member of our Bai family. How could she possibly lay hands on my grandmother?" Bai Xiuzhu raised her head and refuted confidently.
Bai Xiuzhu's firm attitude made everyone else silent for a moment. If Ning Xuan was really related to the Bai family, then they would not dare to participate in this farce led by Jin Shanshan.
