Chapter 435: Chapter 436: Breaking Through Step by Step 2
Feeling the family looking over with hesitation.
Li Tingyanâs face turned extremely grim, he felt incredibly angry. He brought Nianyang home to show her respect, to introduce her to his family.
Nianyang had put so much thought into preparing gifts for his family, yet now she was being suspected of having ulterior motives!
He said in a cold voice, "Even though Nini is from the countryside, her family runs a fruit and vegetable business, and they signed a contract with the Ruan Family in Pingjing. Her conditions are better than any of us.
Not only that, Nini can heal people. Sheâs this yearâs provincial top scholar admitted to the First Medical University. She earned her money through her own abilities!
Sheâs a hundred times better than you, Li Xinya, who only relies on family to buy food and drink. Donât judge people with your narrow perspective!"
Hearing this, the Li Family felt a bit embarrassed and turned their faces away, realizing they had overthought it. The girl was so capable and even brought them gifts; how could they doubt her?
From a young age, Li Xinya was most afraid of her serious elder brother. She had spoken impulsively just now, and now that she had calmed down, she was genuinely scared and felt ashamed.
Nianyang didnât look much older than her, yet she was so accomplished. Comparing the two,
What right did she have to look down on others!
No, no, whatâs gotten into her, how could she speak up for Nianyang? Her good friend was Chu Huan!
She had promised to make Chu Huan her Saozi, she couldnât be swayed by Nianyang, otherwise sheâd be a failure as a friend!
She had to stay determined!
"Li Xinya, apologize to your Saozi quickly, and think before you speak next time. Otherwise, Iâll take away your dinner money for a month and let you go hungry every night!"
Li Zhenhua, with authority but without anger, said. After hearing Li Tingyanâs introduction, he thought Nianyang was truly capable. It made sense; if she werenât capable, his picky son wouldnât take to her.
No wonder, for so many years, no woman caught his sonâs eye; turns out he was waiting for this!
Afraid her father would truly cut her food supply, Li Xinya quickly and poorly apologized to Nianyang, but still stubbornly refused to call her Saozi,
"Well, Iâm sorry, I misspoke."
"Itâs okay," Nianyang replied generously, without holding a grudge against Li Xinya, honestly not taking it to heart at all.
In fact, she could see that Li Xinya wasnât malicious, unlike those scheming types sheâs encountered before.
On the contrary, this young girl was straightforward and genuine, not really hating her.
It was just preconceived ideas; she was close to Chu Huan, naturally biased toward her friend. Itâs normal human emotion!
If Li Xinya had been enthusiastic upon meeting Nianyang, that would have been suspicious!
Li Xinya was stunned, she thought with all the awful things she said, Nianyang would seize the opportunity to make things difficult!
Unexpectedly, a simple "itâs okay" resolved it, how generous she was.
Looking at it this way, this Saozi actually seemed pretty nice!
No, she couldnât acknowledge Nianyang as Saozi, if Chu Huan found out, how upset sheâd be!
Li Xinya walked upright, sat straight, she wouldnât betray a good friend. So, she deliberately hummed, shoving the snowflake cream Nianyang bought for her back into Nianyangâs hands,
"Here, take this back, I donât care for it. My brother and sister-in-law run a cosmetics shop, Iâve used up snowflake cream long ago.
My dear sister Huan is the best, she bought me Feng Hua brand clothes last week, theyâre so pretty!"
Nianyang raised an eyebrow, "Feng Hua?"
