Chapter 758: 198: Self-inflicted_5

Wearing a simple cheongsam paired with an overcoat, her hair cascaded down her back, with a clip of the same color as the cheongsam holding back a strand at her ear. She was a sight to behold.

“Yangyang is up,” Zheng Lingling, who was preparing breakfast, warmly greeted Ni Yan as she came in.

She showed no traces of dislike for Ni Yang, her eyebo were brimming with affection.

Ni Yang greeted her cheerfully, “Good morning, Auntie.”

“Good morning,” Zheng Lingling chuckled, “Not only are you a beauty, but your words are also as sweet as honey. Unlike our Xianjing, who’s a bit aloof. She’s not particularly good-looking and isn’t quite the charmer either. Her introverted demeanor is really baffling.”

With her silver tongue, Zheng Lingling could make the dead come alive and make the living dance to her tunes, leaving them utterly confused.

If the person in front of her wasn’t Ni Yang, they would have surely dropped all their defenses.

Ni Yang lightly hooked the corner of her mouth, her dimples barely visible, “Auntie, you’re being too modest about Sister Xianjing. She’s quite an incredible person as well.”

Zheng Lingling narrowed her eyes.

Ni Yang was indeed no easy target.

Ordinary teenagers hearing such pleasant words would have been completely disoriented. But not Ni Yang, she managed just fine.

Soon, Shangguan Xu and Shangguan Xi got up as well.

From Shangguan Xu’s perspective, he could see Ni Yang’s profile.

Sitting at the dining table, she wasn’t adopting the poised posture that most young ladies from big families did. Instead, she sat with her left leg crossed over her right, exuding casual confidence.

Her cheongsam had been amended, with a slit that wasn’t too high, revealing a graceful calf that was dazzlingly white.

Looking up, there was her uniquely delicate face. The shadows cast by her curled eyelashes on her nose bridge were fan-like. Her lips were red, echoing the clip by her ear.

Such a person would attract attention wherever she went.

“Yangyang, why did you get up so early?” Shangguan Xi skipped over and sat next to Ni Yan.

Shangguan Xu looked away distastefully.

Why couldn’t you have waited until everyone finished eating before mentioning it?

Just then, a noise was heard from outside the door.

Zheng Lingling looked up to see Zheng Xianjing walk in.

With a frown, Zheng Lingling scolded, “Xianjing, where have you been all this time? Didn’t you know we were all eating? You have no manners.”

Zheng Xianjing wasn’t alone; she was supporting a smiling Zheng Suyu.

Looking a bit wronged, Xianjing replied, “Mother, when I got up this morning, I saw Grandma Suyu sitting alone on the couch. I decided to take her out for a walk. I’m sorry…I didn’t mean to be late.”

Old Mrs. Zheng stood up, “Xianjing, you’re a good girl. Quickly bring your grandma over for breakfast. Lingling, how can you scold the child like this! She was just being filial!”

Zheng Xianjing had always been kind-hearted and compassionate since she was a child.

Zheng Xianjing led Zheng Suyu to sit at the table-side.

These days, Zheng Suyu couldn’t eat on her own and needed assistance.
