Chapter 1397: Growing
"Don't laugh, it's true! I used to think that my second brother was very handsome and it would be good to marry him. Mu Sen was also very handsome and had a good temper. It would be good to marry him. But I just went to see the two of them and they were not handsome anymore! They're not handsome anymore, so who else is more handsome?"
Shangguan ning knew about Jing Xi's insistence on marrying mu Sen and Jing Zhi when she was a child, but she had never taken her daughter's childish words to heart.
Anyway, she would change her target in a few days. Except for her own brother Jing Rui, she had claimed that she would marry anyone who was handsome. Shangguan ning had gotten used to it.
Shangguan ning was surprised that her daughter was complaining that he was not handsome."Jing Zhi and mu Sen didn't change. At most, Jing Zhi became thinner and mu Sen became paler. Both of them are handsome young men. Do you like the ones overseas now?"
Shangguan ning suspected that her daughter had been abroad for too long and had fallen in love with Caucasians or ... Black people.
Jing Xi understood what Shangguan ning meant. She said helplessly,"Mom, what are you thinking? I still like to be planted by myself! However, it seems that there are no handsome men among the yellow-skinned people. You've already snatched my dad away. So, I can't get married!"
Shangguan ning couldn't stop laughing."Oh, it's okay. You can marry your father. All daughters are their father's lovers in their previous lives."
"Aiyo, mother, forget it. My dad's lover in his past life and his past past past life must have been you. I can only be his daughter for a few lifetimes! You don't know this, but when I came back this morning, he went to pick me up. I wanted to give him a hug, but he didn't want it!"
"Are your clothes dirty? Your father is a clean freak!"
Jing Xi pulled at her clothes to show Shangguan ning."This is my first time wearing new clothes! It's clean!"
"Oh, it's also possible that he's afraid that a hug would crumple his clothes. He has an important meeting today, so he left after sending you back."
"When you carried him, didn't you see that my dad was not afraid of crumpling his clothes? He wouldn't be happy if you didn't hug him!"
Jing Xi complained to her father, then continued to cry,""I can't get married. Look, everyone else is married, but I'm not!"
Shangguan ning laughed when she heard her daughter's tearful complaints. She had been fanatical about getting married since she was a child. She didn't criticize her at all.
"Your second brother's wedding is tomorrow. You can come along and have fun. Who knows, there might even be a handsome guy at the wedding?"
Jing Xi's eyes lit up. She got up and kissed Shangguan ning on the cheek."Mother is the best in the world!"
She happily jumped off the sofa barefooted and went to look for the clothes she was going to wear tomorrow.
Seeing that she was still acting like a child, Shangguan ning smiled and went to pick with her. "Don't pick one that's too mature. I'm tired of seeing you keep a straight face outside. It's better to be so lively at home!"
"That's different. You're my mother. I can do whatever I want in front of you. No one else will spoil me! Of course, I have to be more mature and quiet, or else I'll be at a disadvantage!"
Jing Xi's maturity and calmness were not an act. As she grew older, she faced more and more challenges. Jing Yichen did not relax his expectations and training of her just because she was a girl.
She was really different from an ordinary thirteen-year-old girl.
The past two years had not been for fun. She had spent every day in high-intensity learning and physical training.
She was just like a child in front of Shangguan ning, acting cute and lively.
"Also, my dad said that he won't help me clean up the trouble I caused and will let me solve it myself. I don't dare to mess around like before, or else I wouldn't have so much money to pay for it!"
Jing Xi picked out two sets of clothes and changed into new ones in front of Shangguan ning.
Shangguan ning's heart ached when she saw the bruises on her body. "You're a girl, why do you train every day? Your brother can't train by himself, and now he wants you to follow him. Your dad listens to me in everything except for the education of the two of you. "
Jing Xi didn't care at all. She smiled and said,""That's right, because my brother and I are both willing. Otherwise, how can we protect you and my dad in the future? It's rare that my dad doesn't listen to you. It's really rare!"
In fact, Jing Yichen had already made a lot of concessions in Jing Xi's education. If it had not been for Shangguan ning's reluctance, Jing Xi would have started training when she was six years old.
Jing Xi had been playing in China until she was 11, and that was her limit.
Shangguan ning touched her daughter's head and said in a low voice,"I also hope that you can be stronger. It's not good for a girl to be too weak, it's easy to be at a disadvantage. Your father and I can't protect you forever, and your brother has his own family. When he's busy, he won't be able to take care of you. No one can be stronger than you!"
Jing Xi was shocked by her mother's words.
No one could be stronger than you!
Jing Xi had always wanted to become stronger, and her goal had always been to protect her mother and father. She had never thought of protecting herself.
In the eyes of outsiders, family Jing was a glorious family. She had lived a carefree life for thirteen years, but it was Jing Yichen and Jing Rui who had protected her from all the dangers.
Jing Xi didn't want to be protected by them forever. She hoped that one day, she could also protect her family.
She was so smart that she could learn anything!
She would definitely be able to learn what her brother knew!
When Jing Yichen got home after work, he saw his wife and daughter in each other's arms, their eyes red.
"Xixi," he said, frowning."Why did you make your mother angry the moment you came back?"
Jing Xi immediately raised her head and complained to Shangguan ning,""Mom, my dad is shouting at me!"
Shangguan ning laughed."Yichen, Xixi is such a good girl. She didn't make me angry. I just feel bad for her when I saw the bruises on her body."
Jing Yichen replied with an "Oh" and said after some thought,"Then let Xixi rest for two days,"
Jing Xi shook her head helplessly."Mom, you're the one who's important. My dad didn't even plan to let me attend my second brother's wedding. He wanted me to do training!" Am I really your biological daughter?!"
"You caused so much trouble when you were young. If you weren't my biological daughter, I would have thrown you away long ago."
A smile appeared on Jing Yichen's face. He was actually very satisfied with his daughter. Jing Xi was much more sensible than before.
At the very least, now that he had gone abroad to harm people, no one in the schools, teachers, and classmates of A city would complain to him anymore!
"Your second brother's wedding is tomorrow. You're not allowed to mess around when you're there."
"How could that be!"
"I'm just giving my second brother some of my handiwork. I'm sure he'll like it!" Jing Xi smiled.
