Chapter 433: Chapter 433: Beauty Saves Beauty
Wei Ting raised his hand and gently patted her shoulder.
“Alright, alright, dad misses you too. You’re all grown up now, how co you’re acting like a kid?”
Wei Yuning pouted, “Because I’m always dad’s little cotton-padded jacket.”
Wei Ting chuckled and said, “Did you upset your mom? Is that why you ca to for refuge?”
Upon hearing this, Wei Yuning imdiately lifted her head to look at him, pouting, “Dad, how did you know?”
Wei Ting tapped her forehead with his finger, “Don’t I know you well enough?”
“Dad, you have to save . You know how fierce mom can be when she’s angry.”
“What did you do?”
Wei Yuning pursed her lips and mumbled, “I didn’t really do anything, just splashed so water on my blind date.”
Then she quickly explained, “But, I didn’t an to splash him. He said sothing so awful, and I couldn’t hold back, so I splashed the water in front of on him. After my mom found out, she scolded over the phone, so I didn’t want to go ho.”
Wei Ting sighed helplessly, “You, always so impulsive.”
Wei Yuning: “Dad, it’s not that I was impulsive. The guy was unreasonable. He asked to have his child as soon as he sat down. Don’t you think he deserved it?”
Wei Ting frowned, “What kind of person did your mom find?”
“How would I know?” Wei Yuning didn’t want to discuss the topic, so she said, “Dad, I’ve never been to Yue City before. Let stay here for a few days. Don’t worry, I promise I won’t cause any trouble. I swear I’ll be good.”
Wei Ting had always spoiled her since she was little.
Although Wei Yuning wasn’t his biological daughter, he treated her as if she were his own.
He married at the age of thirty-one, but his wife ca from a divorced family.
When he t his wife, there was already a child by her side, who is now Wei Yuning.
After he separated from Hu Yunqin, a year later, he had a car accident. It was in the hospital that he t his current wife, and they got married two years later.
Although his family disagreed at the ti, his situation was already like that, and there was nothing they could do.
Wei Ting said, “Do what you want, go wherever you like, buy whatever you want. I’ll have Secretary Lu give you a card tomorrow.”
“Okay, thank you, Dad.”
——
Two days later.
“Aunt Yun, I’m at the mall entrance. Where are you? I’ll co find you.”
It’s Saturday today, and Lan Yan happened to be free, so she accompanied Mrs. Xiao to shop.
“Yanyan, I’m at a dessert shop on the second floor. Co up.”
“Alright, Aunt Yun.”
Lan Yan hung up the phone and walked towards the mall entrance.
As soon as she went inside, she heard a commotion from within.
She only glanced at it and wasn’t really interested in the drama.
These things were nothing new.
She headed straight for the escalator.
“Ma’am, you can’t be unreasonable. Your kid bumped into themselves and fell. How can you say it was who pushed them? Just because you’re old doesn’t an you can lie. If you want my money, just say it frankly instead of making a scene! Even if I have money, I won’t give it to you, because it wasn’t my fault.”
The lady before her, furious at Wei Yuning’s sharp words, replied, “You brat, just because you’re pretty doesn’t an you can spout nonsense. Which eye saw asking for your money?”
Wei Yuning didn’t play by the rules and thanked, “Thank you for the complint, Madam. I think I’m quite pretty too. But I wasn’t lying since you just asked for five thousand dollars. Did you forget what you said because of old age? I saw and heard it with both my eyes and ears.”
Then she pointed at the onlookers and said, “Ask these people around us, they heard it too. And when I said to check the cara, you said it can be faked. Tell , if you aren’t trying to be unreasonable, then what are you doing?”
“You… you sharp-tongued girl! I can’t argue with you, but you’re just bullying us, and my grandson, because we can’t talk well.”
Wei Yuning was speechless, thinking it’s just unreasonable black and white twisting.
“Forget it, I won’t argue with you lot!”
With that, she turned and walked away.
But after a few steps, the old lady chased after her.
“You brat, you can’t leave!”
Wei Yuning felt a push on her back, and wearing high heels, she lost her balance and pitched forward.
Just when she thought she was going to make painful contact with the cold ground, soone grabbed her waist and turned her around.
Originally, Lan Yan didn’t want to intervene, but when the person was right in front of her, she reflexively saved her.
“Are you okay?”
Her expression was indifferent as she glanced at Wei Yuning.
Wei Yuning clung onto her, her arms around Lan Yan’s neck.
Wei Yuning looked at her and blinked, “I… I’m okay.”
“Then let go quickly.”
“Oh, oh, alright.”
Wei Yuning quickly released her, “Um, thank you, beautiful sister. If not for you, I would’ve face-planted embarrassingly.”
Lan Yan: “I just did it instinctively, no need to thank . Be careful next ti.”
“Beautiful sister, your rescue was so cool, have you trained?”
Wei Yuning always thought only guys could rescue people like that.
She never expected a woman could do it, and even cooler than a man.
Lan Yan didn’t respond more and turned onto the escalator.
Seeing Lan Yan’s indifference made Wei Yuning even more intrigued.
She lost interest in finding who pushed her.
She quickly followed, “Um, savior sister, can I get your contact info?”
“Or if you’re free, I’d like to treat you to a al to thank you for saving .”
Lan Yan replied calmly, “No need.”
Wei Yuning said, “Oh, is that so, can I at least get your contact info?”
“No.”
“Why not?”
“No reason, I just helped you reflexively. There’s no need to make a big deal of it. I would have helped a stranger too.”
“But I want to know you. I just got to Yue City, I’m a stranger here with no friends. Would you be willing to be friends with ?”
Wei Yuning was very enthusiastic and quite straightforward.
Besides, she was quite chatty, and could talk a lot.
Lan Yan glanced at her again, she was rather pretty, with big eyes, a small pointed nose, an egg-shaped face, and delicate features, but why was she so talkative?
Lan Yan said aloofly, “Stop bothering . I don’t have ti for your chatter.”
Wei Yuning wasn’t deterred by her cold deanor.
“Oh, oh, then can I follow you quietly?”
Lan Yan: “…”
What kind of mindset does this girl have?
The next second, Wei Yuning rembered she hadn’t introduced herself, “Um, savior sister, I’m Wei Yuning, twenty-three years old. You can call Xiao Ning or Yuning.”
Lan Yan turned her head, looking at her with a complex expression, “What did you say your na was?”
“Wei Yuning, you know, Wei Country’s Wei, Language’s Yu, Calm’s Ning.”
“…”
Lan Yan seed to have heard this na sowhere, or maybe she had seen it.
Last na Wei?
Could this woman possibly be Wei Ting’s daughter?
What a coincidence if it were true!
What kind of luck is this?
Seeing Lan Yan staring at her without speaking, Wei Yuning waved her hand, saying, “Savior sister, do you know ?”
Lan Yan: “I don’t know you.”
“Oh, I thought so, because if you knew , how could I not know you?” Wei Yuning asked, “What’s your na?”
Lan Yan felt that if she didn’t answer, Wei Yuning would keep pestering her, so she said, “My last na is Lan.”
“Lan as in Blue Sky?”
“Yes.”
“Okay, then I’ll call you Sister Lan from now on.”
“…”
Lan Yan didn’t respond to her further and headed up to the second floor to find Mrs. Xiao.
Not long after, she found the dessert shop Mrs. Xiao ntioned.
As soon as she entered, Mrs. Xiao saw her and waved, “Yanyan, over here.”
Lan Yan heard and walked over.
Mrs. Xiao bead warmly at her, “Co, co, sit down.”
As soon as Lan Yan sat down, a woman’s voice sounded, “Two sisters, do you mind if I join your table?”
Both looked at Wei Yuning simultaneously.
Lan Yan frowned slightly but said nothing.
Mrs. Xiao, however, looked at the stylishly dressed young woman and said, “Little beauty, what did you call ?”
Wei Yuning looked at Mrs. Xiao and smiled, “Sister.”
Mrs. Xiao, “Am I that young? My son is thirty, isn’t it inappropriate to call sister?”
Though she liked being called sister, her age was evident.
Wei Yuning lightly said, “Your son is thirty? But you look at most a little over thirty.”
Then, she turned to Lan Yan and said, “I even thought you were Sister Lan’s sister.”
Lan Yan admired her a bit, she sure knew how to talk.
“Sister Lan? You two know each other?” Mrs. Xiao asked.
Wei Yuning had already pulled a chair and sat down, cheerfully saying, “Yes, we just t. Sister Lan saved earlier; if not for her, I might be in the hospital now.”
Then, she narrated the incident where Lan Yan saved her on the first floor.
And she used many exaggerated phrases…
Wei Yuning had a knack for making friends, a typical extrovert, a social butterfly.
In just a few words, she won over Mrs. Xiao.
The two also bonded over shared topics.
Mrs. Xiao found her adorable, and thought her chatter matched her son’s.
“Sister, if you hadn’t said, I would’ve thought you were siblings with Sister Lan,” she giggled.
Mrs. Xiao chuckled, “You little girl, better call auntie, or Aunt Yun as your Sister Lan does. But I’m no sister to her; she’s my future daughter-in-law.”
Wei Yuning quickly changed her tone, “Okay, Aunt Yun.”
“So Sister Lan is taken, huh? I was thinking of introducing her to so friends, but looks like it’s not needed.”
Then she turned to Mrs. Xiao, asking, “Aunt Yun, your son must be handso, right?”
“Why do you ask that?” Mrs. Xiao inquired.
Wei Yuning, “Because soone like Sister Lan, so beautiful with a great figure, and gives such a sense of security, should be with a tall, handso guy. If he’s too unattractive, I feel he doesn’t match Sister Lan.”
Her reason made Mrs. Xiao burst into laughter, “Don’t worry, he’s handso. Just that being with Yanyan might wrong her a little.”
Lan Yan sat silently, with no chance to speak.
Wei Yuning was montarily stunned. She didn’t expect Mrs. Liang to speak of her son this way.
“Aunt Yun, is it that your son has a bad temper?”
“Not really, he’s just a bit mouthy. He’s chatty, like you.”
Wei Yuning: “…”
Mrs. Xiao realized how blunt she was, “Of course, I’m not criticizing you. You’re chatty but adorable and pretty, Aunt Yun likes you.”
Initially a duo shopping trip, it inexplicably turned into a trio.
Since it was close to New Year, Mrs. Xiao ca to buy new clothes today.
“Xiao Ning, I haven’t asked, where are you from?” Mrs. Xiao inquired.
Wei Yuning replied, “Oh, I’m from Hong Kong, first ti in Yue City.”
“Did you co here alone?”
“Not really, my dad is here on a business trip, so I ca with him.”
“Oh, I see.”
Then, the three of them entered a luxury clothing store together.
Among them, only Lan Yan remained calm; the other two were shopping like crazy.
If they liked sothing, price didn’t matter.
And surprisingly, Mrs. Xiao and Wei Yuning, who just t, had a strange synergy.
Both had the sa taste when picking outfits for Lan Yan.
Lan Yan watched the uncanny harmony and this unexpected scene, not knowing how to describe it.
If she didn’t know Wei Yuning’s identity, she might not think much.
But Wei Yuning had so many coincidences about her, she was undoubtedly Wei Ting’s daughter.
She never imagined she’d one day go shopping with Wei Ting’s daughter.
This strange relationship was really indescribable.
“Sister Lan, Sister Lan, I think this beige knitted dress suits you too. Want to try it on?”
Wei Yuning enthusiastically picked styles for her.
But to be honest, her taste was really good, the styles looked great.
“Xiao Ning, I didn’t know you had a knack for fashion, very stylish,” Mrs. Xiao complinted.
Wei Yuning bashfully said, “Because I studied fashion design in college. If I didn’t have this skill, my teacher would probably faint.”
Mrs. Xiao, “You’re quite the expert then, no wonder.”
“Not at all, I’m just a dabbler, barely can graduate.”
“Don’t worry, you’ll graduate. Auntie supports you.”
“Thank you, Aunt Yun.”
In the fitting room, Lan Yan looked at a pile of clothes to try on, falling silent.
She sat on a chair, took out her phone, opened WeChat, and sent soone a ssage.
“I ran into Wei Ting’s daughter, Wei Yuning… can you imagine what we’re doing right now?”
Xiao Si quickly replied, “Fighting? And you won!”
