Chapter 394: Chapter 394 Casual Family Talk Chapter 394: Chapter 394 Casual Family Talk After everything that needed to be said was said, everyone dispersed.
In fact, the main reason everyone had gathered together this ti was just to discuss Zhong ngfan’s affair. Everyone had known what was going to develop well before Zhong ngfan went abroad to have her child.
Still, so things had to be emphasized that must be emphasized. This matter was a secret of their Zhong Family, related to their family’s face. If it got out, everyone would be disgraced.
Throughout, Zhong Niangyao had not said a word and had simply sat there with an indifferent attitude as if she were just a mascot.
After everyone had left, Zhong Niangyao didn’t plan on staying and lifted her feet to go upstairs.
However, just as she got up, she was called out to.
“Nianyao, do you have ti for a chat?” Zhong ngfan stepped forward, smiling at Zhong Niangyao and spoke, “It won’t take much of your ti, and we haven’t seen each other for so long, sitting down for a chat between sisters is only right.”
Zhong Niangyao glanced at Zhong ngxuan, who was also left behind, then at Zhong ngfan, who was entirely different than before, almost reborn. After thinking for a while, she nodded her head.
So ti later, in the garden—
The three Zhong sisters leisurely sat there, sothing that had rarely been seen before. But anyone who approached would find the atmosphere among the three to be sowhat eerie.
Zhong Niangyao sat there, leisurely holding a teacup, sipping tea.
Zhong ngxuan, on the other hand, had an impatient look on her face, as if she couldn’t wait to leave imdiately, yet she still sat there without any intention of leaving.
Zhong ngfan had a smile on her face and overall looked much more composed than before, completely lacking her previous frivolity.
“Who would have thought, the three of us sisters would still have the chance to sit together and chat over tea!” Zhong ngfan put down her teacup, unable to help herself from remarking, “The situation right now feels really dream-like!”
“Zhong ngfan, you are indeed dreaming!” Zhong ngxuan’s mouth curved up in a sarcastic smile, “Or should I say, you wish everything was just a dream! When you wake up, you’ll still be the Zhong ngfan who has never had a child.”
Since the past, she and Zhong ngfan had never gotten along. Now that she had gotten ahold of Zhong ngfan’s weakness, how could she not trample on it relentlessly!
Zhong ngfan’s face flushed with embarrassnt for a mont, but she quickly recovered with a slight smile and continued, “I don’t know what you’re talking about. However, ngxuan, I hope you haven’t forgotten what Grandpa just said. And—”
“Now, Grandpa is already very disappointed in you. If so gossip starts from your mouth, I suppose Grandpa will be even more disappointed!”
Although she was not at the Zhong Family’s ho, she still knew about so of the things that had happened in the Zhong Family during that ti. Naturally, she was also aware of the things Zhong ngxuan had done and how Grandpa had said he would no longer intervene in Zhong ngxuan’s affairs.
“You—” Zhong ngxuan was furious, pointing at Zhong ngfan, but could not co up with any words to retort.
“ngxuan, the reason I asked to talk to you is that I don’t want us to be at odds like we were before.” Zhong ngfan looked at Zhong ngxuan and continued, “After all, there is no deep enmity between us, nor are we on opposing sides. So, I won’t ddle in what you do. Likewise, I hope you won’t interfere with my affairs.”
“Heh, Zhong ngfan, so you’re afraid I’ll spill all the things you’ve done!” Zhong ngxuan said, understanding at last, her tone dripping with satisfaction, “Then you better please , maybe then I’ll forget all about those things you did before.”
“If you want to talk, feel free,” Zhong ngfan remained unfazed, “But before you do, think about how you will face Grandpa’s wrath!”
Watching Zhong ngfan’s defiant attitude, Zhong ngxuan was so furious she couldn’t contain it. With a cold snort, she stood up and left directly.
Zhong Niangyao, who had been watching the drama from the side, couldn’t help but curl the corners of her mouth slightly.
Although she didn’t know what Zhong ngfan had gone through abroad, it was clear that such experiences had truly transford her entirely.
If it were the old Zhong ngfan, sitting here and chatting peacefully would have been impossible.
“Why are you staring at like that?” Zhong ngfan withdrew her gaze and then turned her head to look at Zhong Niangyao, “Is there sothing on my face?”
“Nothing.” Zhong Niangyao gently shook her head and then spoke with a teasing tone, “I just think that you’ve changed quite a lot after this period!”
“After going through so much, if I hadn’t changed, my future life would probably be ruined.”
At this point, Zhong ngfan laughed self-deprecatingly and then changed the subject, “By the way, speaking of which, I haven’t had the chance to congratulate you yet! Nianyao, I really didn’t see it coming, you and Third Young Master Lu would end up together.”
Previously, when she heard that Zhong Niangyao was actually with Lu Yichen, she doubted if her ears had malfunctioned and she had heard wrong.
It was unexpected: she had been away for just a short ti, and it seed as if the entire Zhong Family went through a dramatic change. Especially the attitude of her brother, which had taken her by surprise.
She had always known her brother was a very aloof person; even when facing her, his own sister, he was not particularly warm.
But upon her return, she found that her indifferent brother, when talking about Zhong Niangyao, actually showed so admiration, and had even acknowledged Zhong Niangyao as his sister.
Such changes made her feel uneasy.
Zhong Niangyao was unaware of Zhong ngfan’s inner thoughts. She looked at Zhong ngfan, then spoke, “So? Did you call here just to chat about this?”
“No,” Zhong ngfan shook her head and after thinking a mont, she said, “Nianyao, you won’t go around talking about my matters, will you?”
“You couldn’t possibly want to talk to about just these things, could you!” Zhong Niangyao shook her head lightly, finding it amusing, “Rest assured, I’m not one of those gossipmongers. And besides, I don’t want to make Grandpa and the others worry.”
“Zhong ngfan, whatever you want to say, just say it directly! There’s no need to beat around the bush here. We’re not exactly in a relationship where we can chat about family matters, are we?”
