Chapter 147 Afternoon Tea



Cheng Jingyi replied: "Maybe I felt familiar with you when I saw you that day and wanted to get to know you.

Of course I will go, that's how the social circles in Hong Kong are.

When men have business cooperation, the relationships and socializing behind the scenes are not handled by us ladies.

It’s okay if you don’t want to go, I’ll explain it to you.”

"It's okay, Aunt Cheng, it's just afternoon tea. What time do we go this afternoon? Ask Brother Zhang to pick me up." Yan Ning thought about it and decided to go.

Mrs. Ning runs a jewelry store, and I also want to open a jewelry store in the future. Maybe we will be competitors in the future.

It's also a good idea to get to know your opponent first.

Cheng Jingyi said on the other end of the phone: "She's scheduled to meet you at 3 pm. I'll pick you up at 2:30 pm."

Yan Ning responded, "Okay, I understand, Aunt Cheng."

After hanging up the phone, Yan Ning looked at the time. It was almost half past ten.

After thinking about it, she decided to go to the restaurant on the first floor to order her food and have the waiter deliver it at 11:30.

At 2:30 in the afternoon, when Yan Ning left the hotel, Zhang Kai was already waiting at the hotel entrance with Cheng Jingyi in his car.

Yan Ning got in the car and greeted Cheng Jingyi, "Aunt Cheng."

After sitting down, she asked, "Aunt Cheng, what is Mrs. Ning like? Is she easy to get along with?"

Cheng Jingyi chuckled and nodded. "She's a nice person and easy to get along with. Don't worry, it's just a simple afternoon tea."

The vehicle drove towards the city center and stopped in front of a restaurant after more than ten minutes.

The two got out of the car and entered the restaurant.

The waiter at the door came over and said, "Welcome, Mrs. Peng. Mrs. Ning has arrived. Please come this way."

Cheng Jingyi nodded slightly.

The waiter led the two to the innermost window seat.

When Huo Jieyan saw the two people coming, she stood up and said with a smile: "Mrs. Peng, Miss Yan."

Cheng Jingyi chuckled and responded, "Mrs. Ning."

Yan Ning smiled, "Hello, Madam Ning!"

After greeting each other, they sat down.

"I don't know what you like to eat, so we haven't ordered yet. Now take a look at what you want to eat?" Huo Jieyan said as she signaled the waiter to hand over the menu.

The three of them watched for a few minutes and ordered the snacks and drinks they wanted.

Huo Jieyan's eyes fell on Yan Ning's face, and the smile on her face became even wider.

"Ms. Yan, the first time I saw you last time, I felt close to you.

That's why I wanted to get to know you through Mrs. Peng. Can I call you Xiao Ning?"

Yan Ning paused and said with a smile, "Of course."

Mrs. Ning is so familiar!

Is this the second time we've met and you're calling me so affectionate?

Huo Jieyan continued, "Xiao Ning, to be honest, the reason why I feel you are so kind is because

That's because you look exactly like my mother-in-law when she was young.

When my husband saw you for the first time, he was completely shocked."

She was also shocked when she heard her husband tell her this the night before.

After thinking about it carefully, I found that the sense of familiarity when I saw Yan Ning's appearance did come from Old Madam Ning.

Her husband told her the whole story, and after discussing it, they decided to use this explanation to arouse Yan Ning's suspicion.

There is no doubt that Yan Ning is a descendant of the Ning family. After all, three generations of grandparents and grandchildren look exactly the same, which is the best proof.

Therefore, the Ning family must find Ning Yuwan and recognize Yan Ning.

I'll reveal it to Yan Ning bit by bit now, so that when they meet later it won't be too sudden and she won't be able to accept it.

Cheng Jingyi and Yan Ning were both surprised when they heard this.

Yan Ning asked curiously, "Do they really look exactly the same?"

Huo Jieyan smiled and nodded, "That's not true. When my mother-in-law was your age,

Except for the extra beauty mole on her face, her looks are exactly the same as yours.

Otherwise, how can this be called fate? The "Ning" in your name is the same as our Ning family's surname, right? "

Yan Ning stared with eyes wide open and said nothing. This was too much of a coincidence!

Is there really such a coincidence in the world?

She only knew that her face was 70% similar to the original owner's mother, Lin Xiangxiang, and the other 20% difference was in her temperament.

Now someone says that she looks exactly like another old lady when she was young, which forces her to use her imagination.

It is true that the original owner is Lin Xiangxiang’s biological daughter, so it is understandable that the mother and daughter look exactly the same.

Now another person who looks exactly like her when he was young has appeared. Judging from their age, the problem can only be with Lin Xiangxiang and Madam Ning.

But one is a wealthy lady from Hong Kong, and the other is the daughter of an ordinary citizen from the mainland. What is the relationship between these two people?

Yan Ning suddenly remembered that in the original owner's memory, there was no recollection of Lin Xiangxiang's parents.

The original owner only heard Lin Xiangxiang mention once when she was a child that her parents were teachers at the school, and later they both fell ill and died.

So the original owner had never met Lin Xiangxiang's family.

Could it be that Lin Xiangxiang is Madam Ning’s biological daughter?
