Chapter 173 Even if your grandfather came, it wouldn't make a difference.
"Ningning, you're so pretty! So delicate and radiant! Look at your face, so bouncy and smooth, you're even prettier than when you see you on TV!"
Qiu Huimin walked up to Lu Yining, took her hand in a familiar manner, and looked at her with undisguised admiration.
"Ningning, do you have a boyfriend now? Or do you have someone you like?"
Qiu Huimin smiled, "It probably isn't there yet, right? If it is... should she have her son seduce someone?"
Maybe... after seducing her son, Ningning has fallen for him?
Not to brag, but she was quite fond of her son's looks. It was just that he was usually so cold and aloof, his stern face scaring away most girls. If he were just a little more charming and used some underhanded tricks, he could easily seduce any girl.
She had heard from the housekeeper that her son really liked this girl. Since her son wasn't taking the initiative, she had to work hard to help him win over the girl he liked!
Moreover, she really liked this girl. Later, when she was watching Wilderness Survival, she noticed this girl. Not only was she beautiful, but her personality was also very much to her liking.
Son, son, try harder, put in more effort, and hurry up and win her over. Stop dawdling and hesitating all day long.
Upon hearing his mother's question, Ji Shiyan immediately thought: Oh no...
He said he would give her time to think it over and wouldn't pressure her. He always keeps his word and won't put her in a difficult position.
Ji Shiyan strode forward, walked to Qiu Huimin's side, gently pulled her arm, and said with a hint of helplessness in his eyes, "Mom, don't talk nonsense."
Qiu Huimin pursed her lips, glanced at her son with a nonchalant look, and said, "Can't you see that your old mother is trying very hard to help you make this relationship happen?"
Why are you getting involved in this mess...?
It's in the way...
Fearing that Qiu Huimin might say something inappropriate again, Ji Shiyan quickly pulled her to a corner a little further away and repeatedly gave her instructions.
"Mom, don't tell Ningning these things yet. I said I would respect her wishes and give her time to think it over. What if you scare her away by saying these things now?"
Ok?
What this means is...
Qiu Huimin glanced at Ji Shiyan in surprise. She hadn't expected her son to be so proactive.
She nudged Ji Shiyan with her elbow, her face full of gossip: "You asked? Did he confess?"
Ji Shiyan: "..."
Can I not answer this question?
No one knows a son better than his mother. Seeing Ji Shiyan's expression, Qiu Huimin knew she had guessed correctly. She excitedly patted Ji Shiyan's shoulder several times.
"Good, good, good, as expected of my son, he has determination and his actions are top-notch."
"Well... your dad and I will wait for good news."
Ji Shiyan blushed slightly and nodded almost imperceptibly.
Qiu Huimin's excitement was palpable. Even when she turned around to talk to Pu Minglan, her tone was not as harsh as before, but rather a bit softer. However, the meaning behind her words remained unchanged.
"Minglan, get in the car. Don't bother your brother here. This is a workplace, not a place for you to play around. If you want to play, go home and have fun."
She had never really liked this child, but no matter what, Minglan was her younger brother's child. Even if she didn't like her, she would still take care of her a little out of consideration for her brother.
This child is cunning. When you talk to her, you can always see those calculating looks in her eyes. Just looking at her makes you uncomfortable...
Pu Minglan was clearly unwilling. She sniffed, her voice lowered slightly, and carried a hint of pleading.
"Auntie, I don't want to go home. My parents are usually not home, and I get bored staying at home alone. Please let me stay here."
"I promise, I won't delay my brother's work. Auntie, please let me stay here."
"What's the big deal? If you're bored, come chat with your aunt. Whatever you want to play or talk about, your aunt will keep you company."
When Qiu Huimin spoke, there was a faint smile on her lips, so faint that it seemed as if she had been forcing it out for a long time.
"Let's go," she said again.
"But Dad said I can come and play with my brother. Dad said I can."
Pu Minglan also wanted to bring up her father in an attempt to pressure Qiu Huimin and change her mind.
How could Qiu Huimin not see through her thoughts?
She interrupted Pu Minglan directly, stating clearly: "Don't even mention your father, even if your grandfather came, it wouldn't make a difference. No interference means no interference."
After saying this, Qiu Huimin turned around and said, "Get in the car."
Qiu Huimin's face was full of displeasure, and the slight rise and fall of her chest revealed her inner turmoil. However, when her gaze turned to Lu Yining, she felt her gloom instantly dissipate and her mood improve.
One second she was full of anger, the next second a smile suddenly bloomed on her face.
She waved at Lu Yining, then spoke meaningfully.
"Ningning, you have to be good to my son. If there are any misunderstandings or questions, communicate them promptly. Don't let any unexpected people or events cause a rift in your relationship."
"You must remember to talk more and share your thoughts with each other."
"I remember, okay? Don't overthink it!"
Lu Yining smiled and obediently hummed in agreement, then said nothing more, only waving to Qiu Huimin.
The things this mother and son say are so outrageous, one after another. I've been shocked countless times tonight...
[If these two went out, everyone would surely say: They are unmistakably a biological mother and son.]
After getting into the car, Qiu Huimin glanced at Pu Minglan, who was dawdling and slowly walking towards them. Upon receiving this gaze, Pu Minglan dared not dawdle any longer and had to quicken her pace to walk over to the car, open the door, and get in.
"Ningning, bye-bye~" Qiu Huimin smiled at Lu Yining: "You're welcome to come to my house next time~"
Although what Qiu Huimin said was quite shocking, to be honest, she had a pretty good impression of Qiu Huimin.
They are pure of heart; they like what they like and dislike what they dislike. They are the kind of people who would never stab someone in the back.
Therefore, upon hearing this, Lu Yining smiled and replied, "Yes, I will. If I have the chance next time, I will go."
After Qiu Huimin and the others left, the surroundings instantly became quiet. A cold wind blew, making the leaves rustle. Occasionally, the sound of a motorcycle horn could be heard in the distance, but soon silence returned.
