Rebirth of a Village Girl novel Chapter 800

Chapter 800: 205: Face-slapping at the Birthday Banquet!_4

Everyone usually fawned over and sought favor with Mr. Du, but this girl dared to insult him brazenly.

In all her years, Du Jiaojiao had never seen Mr. Du lose face like that before.

Seeing Du Jiaojiao laughing until her face was contorted, Mr. Du quietly picked up his teacup and took a sip.

Thankfully, he didn’t tell Du Jiaojiao that Ni Yang wanted him to call her "Brother Yang".

If Du Jiaojiao heard about that, she would likely laugh herself to death.

It seems that not telling her was indeed very wise.

After a full five minutes of laughter, Du Jiaojiao finally suppressed her giggles. She nudged Mr. Du and said, "Honestly, do you have any unique feelings about this? I really want to know your current state of mind."

Looking at Du Jiaojiao calmly, Mr. Du simply replied, "You’re too boring."

"Don’t pretend. Aren’t you feeling particularly angry now? Do you want to get back at that little girl?" Du Jiaojiao asked.

"Not at all," replied Mr. Du with a flat tone.

Continuing, Du Jiaojiao asked: "What was she like? Was she pretty?" Du Jiaojiao was a total beauty fanatic.

Mr. Du slightly nodded his agreement.

"Is she prettier than I am?" Du Jiaojiao pressed on.

Mr. Du paused and looked at Du Jiaojiao before replying, "There’s no basis for comparison."

Du Jiaojiao frowned slightly. "What do you mean there’s no basis for comparison? Are you saying that I’m prettier than her? If so, by how much?"

"Second Sister, do you think you’re prettier, or is it Chang’e, the legendary Chinese goddess of the moon?" Mr. Du countered.

Dumbfounded, Du Jiaojiao replied: "How can these two things even be compared? There’s absolutely no basis for comparison."

"Hmm, I think you’re absolutely right," Mr. Du agreed, nodding approvingly.

After a while, Du Jiaojiao finally understood the implication of Mr. Du’s words.

He was playing mind games!

This sly younger brother! Always playing mind games, implying she’s not as attractive!

Zheng Lingling nodded obediently, "Alright, Mom, I understand."

After dinner, back in her room, Zheng Lingling called Xianjing and asked her to come home.

As soon as Xianjing heard that her mother was planning a birthday banquet, she immediately set off from school.

"Wait and see, Xianjing. I will make sure you stand tall and proud at the birthday banquet. We will trample down that country bumpkin Ni Yang. She doesn’t even deserve to tie your shoelaces!"

Zheng Xianjing expressed some concern. "Mom, are you sure Mr. Du will come?"

It had been many days.

Wang Ziqi hadn’t shown up in all that time.

So Zheng Xianjing was worried.

Zheng Lingling laughed and reassured her, "Don’t worry. Mr. Du will definitely come back. I’ll make sure news of your birthday gets disseminated tomorrow."

Zheng Xianjing nodded.

In order to make Zheng Xianjing’s birthday a success and raise her status, Zheng Lingling put in a great deal of effort, even ordering a top-tier evening gown from overseas specifically for the occasion.
