Chapter 307 Formal Meeting
Ning Yunxi was just about to get on the carriage and go to Fang Mansion to discuss the matter of the shopkeeper, when she heard from a servant that Fourth Miss Ning wanted to see her.
Ning Jiewei received her share and came over to express her gratitude. When she heard that her third sister was going to the Fang Mansion, she insisted on joining in the fun.
Seeing her acting coquettishly, Ning Yunxi just wanted to pamper her, so he readily agreed and got into the carriage with her.
The carriage went to Fang Mansion at a steady pace.
Ning Jiewei sat in a delicate posture, and her every move was as soft and charming as a willow branch as she swayed with the carriage.
"I heard from my third sister before that the Lord Fang is actually the emperor's brother, Zhuang Shao?"
Ning Yunxi smiled slightly and did not forget to give instructions.
"Yes. Remember, you must not tell anyone else about it."
Ning Jiewei complained only to show her sincerity, without any blame.
"Third sister reminded me several times, but I remembered it and didn't mention it to anyone."
Ning Yunxi smiled brightly, expressing her relief.
"Thank you for keeping it a secret."
Ning Jiewei is charming and attractive.
"I heard that Lord Fang is still single?"
She has always been graceful and charming. Ning Yunxi has long been accustomed to it and does not find it strange.
"Yes, he was delayed by my mother and uncle and has been trapped in the secret room for decades, so he is alone. Since he came out of the secret room, I have introduced suitable women to him, but he didn't like any of them."
"I asked him what kind of women he liked. He hesitated and couldn't tell me. It really worried me."
Ning Jiewei raised one corner of her mouth, looking complacent.
"I know which girl he likes."
Ning Yunxi was surprised.
"how do you know?"
Ning Jiewei raised her eyebrows and smiled, keeping the secret.
"Sister, you'll know after you see how I behave."
Ning Yunxi trusted him without a doubt and didn't ask any more questions.
"If you can ask, it will be a great help to me. You can choose a date and I will treat you to a meal."
Ning Jiewei smiled happily and nodded.
"Okay, it's a deal."
Not long after the conversation, the carriage stopped in front of the Fang Mansion.
Hearing that Xier had arrived, Zhuang Shao quickly ordered tea to be prepared and stood up to greet her in person.
The three of them walked into the front hall together, and Zhuang Shao, out of habit, dismissed the people around him.
"Set the tea and snacks, then everyone can leave."
The servants left immediately.
Thinking that this was their first formal meeting, Ning Yunxi smiled and took the initiative to introduce them to each other.
"Fourth sister, this is my uncle Shao, Zhuang Shao."
"Uncle Shao, she is my fourth sister, Ning Jiewei."
As soon as he heard the introduction, he knew Ning Jiewei was one of his own. Zhuang Shao showed some respect and bowed.
"Miss Ning Si is well."
Ning Jiewei's lazy makeup style, flowing autumn water, and light body.
"I wish you the best of luck, Lord Fang."
After the ceremony, Zhuang Shao gestured enthusiastically.
"Please take a seat and have some tea."
Waiting for Uncle Shao to take a seat first, Ning Yunxi sat down at the side, picked up the teacup, and took a sip of tea.
Ning Jiewei did not sit down, but walked straight towards Zhuang Shao. Her graceful figure and body were like drizzle, and she fell softly into Zhuang Shao's arms.
"Master Fang, can you hug me?"
When Ning Yunxi heard this, she choked on her tea and couldn't help coughing heavily.
"Cough cough cough..."
Zhuang Shao was speechless, stunned and completely shocked.
"You, you, you...I, I, I..."
His astonishment turned into obsession in Ning Jiewei's eyes.
She bit her lower lip, looking even more seductive.
"Hug me."
Zhuang Shao didn't dare to move at all, his pupils were filled with fear. He turned to Ning Yunxi cautiously, feeling unsure, and asked weakly.
"Are you sure she is... Fourth Miss Ning?"
Ning Yunxi quickly put down the teacup and went forward to pull her sister away.
"Uncle Shao, please don't be surprised. My little sister has always been like this."
Zhuang Shao was greatly shocked.
"what?"
Ning Jiewei looked disappointed and shook off Ning Yunxi's hand, looking a little displeased.
"What is Third Sister doing? I asked him in the carriage just now, and he is single."
"It's understandable that I can't show my affection to someone who already has someone in his heart; but since Lord Fang is single, why did you stop me, sister?"
Zhuang Shao was shocked again.
"You would still do this, showing kindness to someone you already have a crush on?"
Hearing that something was not right, Ning Yunxi became anxious and explained for her sister.
"Uncle Shao, please don't misunderstand. Fourth sister is definitely not a frivolous and casual person. She just cares a lot about her appearance and always wants to prove that she is the most beautiful woman in Yuesheng."
"Since I was little, my elder brother always looked down on me and mocked me for my ugly appearance. Therefore, my fourth sister is particularly obsessed with me."
Even though it was just a reason, Ning Jiewei was furious when she heard it.
"Humph, big brother is the ugliest man in the world. Every time I see him, I feel disgusted and disgusted, and I cannot bear to look at him!"
Zhuang Shao was understanding and quickly figured out the reason.
"Although I am not talented, I can understand Fourth Miss Ning's state of mind."
"Since I met my brother, I have always heard him modestly commenting that he was not as smart as others and was at the bottom of the list. He also said that I was not even as good as him. Such comparisons are indeed frustrating. Therefore, what I think about and learn all day is to surpass him and get a word of praise from him."
"However, no matter how much I learn, it is still incomparable."
Ning Jiewei asked to confirm.
"Your sworn brother is Fang Zhixuan?"
Zhuang Shao responded in the affirmative.
"Yes."
Ning Jiewei blurted out without thinking.
"Then you are indeed not as good as him, but I am not. I am much more beautiful than my elder brother."
Hearing this, Ning Yunxi's face was shocked.
Turning around, I saw that Zhuang Shao was indeed at the bottom of his depression.
"Yes... I know that I am no match for him."
Ning Yunxi hurriedly comforted her.
"Fourth sister didn't mean to talk nonsense, Uncle Shao, please don't take it seriously!"
"Dad said that my uncle's talent is at the bottom of the Fang family, and Uncle Shao is much smarter than him."
Zhuang Shao was listless and unhappy.
"Where did my brother-in-law say such a thing? Even if he did, it was just a lie."
There was no way to end it, Ning Yunxi was helpless, wanting to cry but having no tears.
Ning Jiewei's words of comfort immediately made him feel relieved.
"But you are much more handsome than him. That's why I seduced you."
Zhuang Shao's face turned red involuntarily.
"You haven't seen him, why do you say that?"
Ning Jiewei retorted with a hint of pride.
"How could I not have seen it? The doctor was trapped in Tongshitai, and an evil woman made trouble. It was Master Zhuang who appeared to rescue me and transferred me to Yinsitai."
Having said that, she made comments as she felt.
"He looks ugly, just like my elder brother. I see that he is not only the dumbest among the Fang people, but also the ugliest."
Although he felt guilty for speaking ill of his brother behind his back, Zhuang Shao felt inexplicably happy and couldn't help laughing.
"Miss Ning Si is really humorous."
"There is something I have been holding back for a long time, but I am afraid to say it out loud for fear of being rude. Your brother boasts of his talent, but in fact he is sickly and ugly, and he doesn't look very smart."
Ning Jiewei was in a good mood and smiled happily.
"Mr. Fang is even more humorous. What he said is absolutely right."
Seeing their similar interests, Ning Yunxi was speechless for a moment.
