“Second Brother, I’m not that fantastic. But I might have some talent in cooking,” Chu Ning said with a smile.
After dinner, Father Chu seemed to falter. He looked at Chu Ning and appeared hesitant to speak, but still made up his mind and said, “Xiao Ning, the Dragon Boat Festival Gala is the day after tomorrow. If your mother and I go, are there any precautions we should be aware of? After all, Jingyuan High School is an aristocratic school. We’re going as Xiao Ting’s family members, but if you perform, then…”
Father Chu was in a dilemma.
On this matter, Ye Ting had spoken first, and it was seventh brother, Chu Zhang, who was the breakthrough. Father Chu and Mother Chu must have been feeling very conflicted at the moment.
Speaking of feelings, they had lived with Ye Ting for so many years, so it was naturally impossible for them to simply let go. But on the other side was Chu Ning, their biological daughter, and they had wanted to compensate Chu Ning in the first place, however, Ye Ting had already spoken first… The couple were really at a loss about what to do.
“Dad, Mom, it’s fine. You don’t have to think too much about it. Jingyuan High School doesn’t have a lot of things that you have to pay attention to. Just do what you should do. No one will make things difficult for you. Also, about Ye Ting, how about this? If you and mom need to vote, just vote for Ye Ting. As for the brothers, it’s up to them to decide.”
Chu Ning knew that Father and Mother Chu were the ones who were in the most difficult position on this matter. Ye Ting, on the other hand, would not think too much about it; she would only consider her own interests.
“Sigh, Xiao Ning, you are too sensible. We have let you down.” Father Chu shook his head, and there was a hint of helplessness in his tone.
“Dad, Mom, you don’t have to blame yourself. After all, Ye Ting was raised by you. Moreover, she had already said it in advance. How could you not agree? If I had been the one to ask first, you wouldn’t have refused either,” Chu Ning comforted softly.
“Okay, let’s not think too much about it. Let’s go out for a walk.”
Under Chu Ning’s suggestion, Father and Mother Chu could only stop thinking about it for the time being. They accompanied Chu Ning out for a walk. The streets outside were very lively that night, filled with the happiness and joy of the festival . Influenced by the atmosphere, Father and Mother Chu gradually broke into smiles.
The next day, when Chu Ning arrived at school, the entire Jingyuan High School had become brand new. There were more elements related to the Dragon Boat Festival at the school gate, and it was even more so in the inner part of the school compound. The classrooms, corridors, all had additional decorations. For an aristocratic school like Jingyuan High School, the traditional cultural etiquette was very well done.
The following night would be the Dragon Boat Festival Gala, so the students of Jingyuan High School were particularly excited that day.
When Xiaomi saw her deskmate Chu Ning arrive, her round face couldn’t help but smile.
“Hey, Chu Ning, Chu Ning, come here quickly. I’ll show you a goddess,” Xiaomi greeted enthusiastically.
“Huh?” Chu Ning was a little puzzled. She looked around and didn’t see the goddess that Xiaomi had mentioned.
“Where is there a goddess here? You can’t be talking about me?” Chu Ning smiled and pointed at herself.
“Although you are a little narcissistic, but this mysterious beauty’s side profile really looks like you.” Xiaomi took out a magazine and flipped to one of the pages.
Chu Ning followed Xiaomi’s gaze and looked over the page. It was a photo taken in a shopping mall. Although there were many people in the shopping mall and there were a lot of covers, the angle of this photo was very tricky and perfect. The photo’s focal point was a lady who was inadvertently tilting her head slightly. It matched perfectly with her enchanting figure, giving off the aura of an arrogant and distant queen.
“Does it look good? When I first saw this photo, I thought of you and felt that it was somewhat similar to you. However, that disposition of hers, tsk tsk. That slight turning of her head and inadvertently turning back to smile, was too perfect! Another person is going to shoot to fame in our M city. It’s a pity that her identity hasn’t been exposed yet. Otherwise, it would be big news! Even I, a girl, have fallen in love with her!”
Xiaomi said with a face full of yearning. There was a reason she didn’t associate the identity of the person in the photo with Chu Ning.
Xiaomi was very clear about Chu Ning’s family background. It was impossible for her to patronize a high-end luxury shop like Dior.
“Huh?” Chu Ning was really speechless! Wasn’t the person in the photo herself?!
Moreover, it wasn’t like what Xiaomi had said. Her shoelaces had come undone and she had turned around to tie them..
