Lin Ning's behavior was very elegant, and her every move and smile revealed sweetness and charm: "Auntie, long time no see."
Seeing that Mu Shaoling was there, Lin Ning said shyly: "So Mr. Mu is also at home..."
Mu Shaoling just nodded to her lightly to show politeness.
But Zhang Yali stood up and greeted her politely: "Ning Ning, don't be polite when you come to our house. Just treat it as if you were at your own home. Anyway, it's not a company at home. What do you call Mr. Mu? Just call my son Shaoling."
That’s it.”
"Auntie, isn't this good?" Lin Ning's words were directed at Zhang Yali, but her shy eyes quietly glanced at Mu Shaoling aside.
Zhang Yali took Lin Ning's small white hand and said with joy: "It's just a title, can he be so stingy that he won't let anyone call him by his name? I was just thinking, you haven't been there for more than a week
You came to see me, no, just as I was chanting, you came over."
Mu Shaoling's handsome eyebrows tightened unconsciously.
Why didn't he know that his mother's relationship with Lin Ning had become so good?
Zhang Yali's words caused Lin Ning's jade-like face to blush: "I'm here to give you something, auntie. Last time you said you liked a peony hairpin at the painting shop.
It’s out of stock. I went shopping the day before yesterday and found that there were new products there, which were almost the same style as the hairpins you were interested in, so I brought them back for you.”
After saying that, Lin Ning took out an exquisite mahogany box and handed it to Zhang Yali.
Zhang Yali opened it, and it turned out to be the peony hairpin she had been eyeing before!
The hairpin is themed with peony petals and branches and leaves, paired with pearls and rhinestones. Each pearl and rhinestone inlaid on the hairpin is crystal clear, reflecting a bright luster, making it look luxurious but not gaudy.
Zhang Yali especially likes it.
Although she lacks a lot of self-cultivation, she is still very discerning when it comes to dressing up. She is typically the kind of person who looks like a noble lady when she doesn't speak, but looks like a nouveau riche when she speaks.
Touching the hairpin, Zhang Yali couldn't help but sigh with joy: "Ning Ning, you are such a caring kid. If Shao Ling is as caring as you are, my life will be worth it."
Lin Ning smiled sweetly: "Whatever Auntie said, Shaoling must be very filial to you, but men are busy with their careers and don't have so much time to spend with you."
These words made Zhang Yali feel very comfortable.
After inserting the hairpin into her bun, Zhang Yali asked Lin Ning: "Ning Ning, what do you think of me wearing this hairpin?"
Zhang Yali wore a navy blue heavily embroidered cheongsam. She is a woman in her fifties, but she still retains her charm. She put on the classical hairpin and said nothing, looking like a lady. From her
The shadow of her beauty when she was young can still be vaguely seen on her face.
Lin Ning praised: "Auntie, this hairpin looks really good. It matches the cheongsam very well. The cheongsam you are wearing is also very beautiful..."
Zhang Yali could hardly hold back her smile: "You kid is really good at talking. I would be so happy to have such a caring daughter. This cheongsam was given to me by Shao Ling for my birthday a few months ago.
Bought."
"That Shaoling has really good taste." Lin Ning kept praising: "If it were me, I wouldn't be able to choose a cheongsam that suits your temperament."
Zhang Yali said: "If you like it, I will ask Shaoling to take you to buy a suit for young people later."
Lin Ning lowered her head shyly and said nothing.
Zhang Yali kept scolding Mu Shaoling: "Look, it's good to have a daughter. Look at how caring Ning Ning is. She always thinks about the things I like and even goes all the way to give them to me personally.
Send it here, you say I raise you as a disobedient person, besides making me angry all day long, what else can you do?"
Mu Shaoling said nothing and leaned lazily on the sofa, quietly watching the financial reports on TV.
Zhang Yali pulled Lin Ning and said a lot of personal words. Although she was talking to Zhang Yali, her eyes secretly glanced at Mu Shaoling from time to time, and her love for him was obvious.
Zhang Yali knew what her little daughter was thinking, but she didn't reveal it. The two of them just talked like that.
Seeing that it was getting late, Lin Ning stood up and said goodbye.
Outside the house, it started to rain lightly and a whistling north wind blew. As soon as I walked out of the warm room, I felt as cold as the sky. Zhang Yali originally wanted Lin Ning to stay at Mu's house, but
Lin Ning knew that if she didn't go back at night, her adoptive father Lin Wenzheng, who had a very strict upbringing, would definitely be unhappy, so she still refused.
Seeing that the weather was bad, Zhang Yali deliberately created opportunities for her son and Lin Ning, so she said to Mu Shaoling: "In this kind of windy and rainy weather, I won't worry about Ning Ning going back alone. Please send her home."
…
It's freezing cold outside, but it can't resist the bright lights of the city. Although the traffic flow is not as much as in the past, there are not too few cars traveling on the highway.
The Mu family's old house is in the east of the city, not too close to Lin Ning's house. The drive takes about an hour.
Lin Ning was sitting in a luxury car with the heating on, alone with Mu Shaoling, feeling excited.
Looking at the elegant and noble man driving the steering wheel, Lin Ning said softly: "Thank you for taking me home."
"It should be." Mu Shaoling said expressionlessly.
Looking at the tightly jammed traffic, his handsome face was covered with a layer of gloom.
Damn it, why are there so many vehicles out in such bad weather?
Now he can't wait to rush back to the love nest with Ruan Bai immediately, hold her in his arms and caress her. Only in front of her will he put down all his defenses, take off all disguises, and let himself truly relax...
The entire journey was relatively silent.
Lin Ning found a topic to talk about several times, but was defeated by Mu Shaoling's short or even silent answers. She simply stopped talking and quietly breathed in Mu Shaoling's refreshing masculine breath, and her heart skipped a beat.
One shot.
Just as she was thinking about how to get closer to him in the future, the car suddenly stopped.
"We're here." Mu Shaoling parked the car in front of the Lin family villa.
Lin Ning's random thoughts were broken. She looked at the door of her house and Mu Shaoling's extremely handsome profile. She suddenly had the courage to kiss him lightly on the cheek. Then, she blushed and kissed him quickly.
Got the car...
Mu Shaoling was stunned. He never thought that Lin Ning would come to do this, but he did not think that this was a lucky break. Instead, he took out a white handkerchief and looked at the cheek he was kissed in disgust.
Wiped it over and over again.
Finally, he threw the wiped handkerchief directly into the trash can!
The silver car was like a violent and roaring wave, sweeping across the long road and quickly disappearing into the dark night...
