Chapter 282:100: Strolling Together in the Temple Fair, Elderly Zheng Begins the Investigation s
Ni Cuihua nodded, “Alright, but this child is a bit shy…”
Before Ni Cuihua could finish her sentence, little Ni Yun in her arms reached out towards Granny Zheng, mumbling indistinctly, “Hold…”
The scene in front of her seemed to overlap with one from over thirty years ago, bringing a tingle to Granny Zheng’s nose as she reached out to take little Ni Yun.
Today, little Ni Yun was not only not shy, but he also constantly giggled at Granny Zheng, seeming very happy.
Even Ni Cuihua on the side was astonished by this.
Moreover, she couldn’t understand why every time she saw this old lady, she’d feel so familiar and warm.
While holding little Ni Yun and containing her inner emotion, Granny Zheng asked softly, “How old is this child?”
“Over seven months,” replied Ni Cuihua.
Granny Zheng nodded and continued playing with the child in her arms.
Just then, both Zheng Lingling and Zheng Xianjing stepped out from an upstairs room. As soon as they descended the stairs, they were struck by the sight before them.
In Granny Zheng’s arms was an adorable infant, six to seven months old, while she had a warm smile spread across her face.
This smile was too gentle.
A smile that Granny Zheng never wore at the Zheng Family residence.
Instantly, Zheng Lingling sensed danger.
If Granny Zheng could adopt her more than thirty years ago, she could also adopt others now.
She could not let Granny Zheng adopt anyone else!
If Granny Zheng adopts another person, it means there would be one more person competing with her for inheritance.
The Zheng Family’s wealth could only belong to her and her daughter!
She absolutely wouldn’t let anyone snatch away what belonged to her.
Reading her mother’s intentions, Zheng Xianjing gave a nod of agreement when Zheng Lingling signaled her with her eyes, “Let’s go and call grandma back.”
As she got closer, Zheng Xianjing noticed that Ni Yang was also present.
Why was this annoying girl everywhere?
“Grandma,” Zheng Xianjing approached and squeezed Granny Zheng’s arm, expressing surprise, “Sister Ni Yang is also here!”
Ni Yang greeted them in a polite manner, “Hello, Sister Xianjing, Auntie.”
Being an opportunist, Zheng Lingling wore a warm smile and said, “Hello, you must be Ni Yang, right? My mother always praises you. I’m glad to finally see you in person!” Upon finishing, she turned to Granny Zheng, “Mom, it’s getting late, shall we go home?”
Granny Zheng held little Ni Yun and looked at Zheng Lingling, “Lingling, don’t you think this child is very cute?”
Actually, there was another sentence that Granny Zheng didn’t say out loud.
This child really looked like Tingting when she was young…
Zheng Lingling nodded with a smile, “Yes, he’s adorable, looks a lot like Ni Yang.”
Seeing that Granny Zheng was unwilling to let go of little Ni Yun, Zheng Xianjing suggested, “Grandma, let’s hurry up, Uncle Liu has been waiting outside for a long time.”
Uncle Liu was the Zheng Family’s driver.
Hearing this, Granny Zheng finally let go of little Ni Yun and handed him back to Ni Cuihua, “Ni Yang’s mom, Ni Yang, we’ll be heading home now. Goodbye, little Ni Yun.”
After Granny Zheng and others left, Ni Cuihua asked Ni Yang about the old lady, “Ni Yang, how did you get to know Granny Zheng?”
Ni Yang explained how she met Granny Zheng to Ni Cuihua.
Hearing this, Ni Cuihua nodded, “So Granny Zheng is an old acquaintance of Xiaomo’s family. No wonder her temperament is different from ordinary grandmothers. Her daughter dresses like a well-to-do lady too.”
Ni Yang replied with a laugh, “Mom, one day you will be like Aunt Zheng too, becoming a lady.”
Ni Cuihua laughed softly, “I don’t think that’s my fate.”
Ni Yang held Ni Cuihua’s hand and said, “Mom, we should never feel resigned to fate, nor should we belittle ourselves! No successful person has never failed, likewise, no lady is born a lady.”
If Ni Yang had given in to fate, she wouldn’t have become CEO Ni in her previous life!
She had been lying low for ten years before she made a name for herself, no one knew what she had gone through behind her glamorous exterior.
Therefore, Ni Yang had to correct Ni Cuihua’s mistaken belief and let her know that nothing is impossible in this world.
Ni Cuihua looked at Ni Yang and nodded earnestly.
Following dinner, Ni Yang went to settle the bill.
Five dishes for 158 yuan!
When the figure was announced, Ni Cuihua startled.
158 yuan! That’s equivalent to an ordinary worker’s salary for five months!
Although she was taken aback, Ni Cuihua didn’t say much about it.
