Perfect Life [Rebirth]

Chapter 34

Ding Xiuwen's face looked a little bad...

It can be said that Ding Xiuwen has never received a favorable reception from the old lady since she married into the Rong family. Therefore, when she first saw Cui Yue, she was so panicked that she was a little dazed.

This gave Cui Yue the opportunity to talk so much.

What was even more unacceptable was that Cui Yue actually brought up the old lady, obviously trying to put pressure on him to accept Hua Xuting as his "daughter-in-law".

Regardless of whether Hua Xuting was willing to endure this grievance, Ding Xiuwen felt sorry for Ye Qing beside her...

If I say that it was Old Lady Rong who gave me a hard time at the beginning, then after all, she is Rong Yuanhan's mother, so I have nothing to say.

Why does Cui Yue have the right to make things difficult for her nephew’s girlfriend?

Isn't she just an aunt?

He ignored her and just smiled at Hua Xuting and said:

"Tingting, you still remember my birthday. Thank you, Auntie."

Then he said to Ye Qing:

"Qingqing, please ask Tingting to come in. We have been out for so long, I'm afraid your uncle Rong must be getting anxious waiting inside..."

It was clear from his words that he was treating Ye Qing as his master.

As for Hua Xuting, when she heard the name "Qingqing", she froze and managed to squeeze out a smile that was uglier than crying:

"You are, Qingqing?"

Ye Qing was not naturally sociable, so he nodded when Hua Xuting asked:

"It's me. Long time no see. Let's go over and sit down."

Hua Xuting's expression changed again and again...

The reason why she reluctantly listened to Cui Yue's advice and became this uninvited guest was because she really couldn't let go of the unrequited love that had started since her teenage years.

Yes, unrequited love. As early as when she chose to go abroad, Hua Xuting already knew that Rong Heng had never liked her.

I thought I could let it go by leaving, but I didn't expect that this one-sided feeling not only did not cool down, but became even hotter.

According to the previous agreement, I should have stayed abroad for another year, but in order to see Rong Heng as soon as possible, I interrupted the plan and came back early.

Maybe Rong Heng’s thoughts have changed because he is still thinking about or experiencing the period when I am not around.

Who would have thought that the first person I met was Rong Heng, who brought his girlfriend over to show off their affection.

The reason why she believed Cui Yue's words was that Hua Xuting still had some fantasies in her heart. Besides, Ye Qing was such a fat man, and he was really not a good match for Rong Heng...

I didn't expect that coming here with such a brave face would only bring humiliation upon myself...

I wanted to turn around and leave, but I also knew that if I did that, I would be laughed at by others, so I had to force myself to say:

"Qingqing, it's you. How come you've lost so much weight? If Auntie hadn't told me, I wouldn't have recognized you..."

The moment I lowered my head, a tear fell to the floor with a "pop" sound...

I have already said that I came here specially to celebrate Ding Xiuwen's birthday. If I turn around and leave now, it will undoubtedly be even more embarrassing.

But he couldn't help but feel resentful towards Cui Yue. When he, Ding Xiuwen and Ye Qing went to the Phoenix Hall, he didn't even say hello to Cui Yue.

Cui Yue only then realized that the girl holding hands with Ding Xiuwen was actually the current girlfriend of her nephew Rong Heng mentioned by Hua Xuting.

She felt embarrassed and annoyed at the same time, and was even more worried about angering Hua Xuting and disrupting her parents' plans.

"Cheng Zhong, Tian Ming, what are you doing standing there like an idiot..." The door of the Qilin Hall next door opened, and Du Lan poked his head out. He happened to see the backs of Hua Xuting and the others, and stared at them for a few seconds, "What are you looking at?"

But when he saw Ye Qing, he whistled:

"Hey, isn't this the little fat girl... Hey, the other one is not from the Hua family..."

Cheng Zhong turned around and looked at Du Lan with a bad look on his face:

"Do you know that girl?"

Anyone who makes Tingting sad deserves to die.

Du Lan's mouth suddenly felt bitter... Why was he so mean?

All these childhood friends know that Cheng Zhong is a romantic man.

When I was in high school, I fell in love with the eldest daughter of the Hua family and even chased her all the way abroad. Unfortunately, she was in love but not interested. I heard that the eldest daughter of the Hua family already had someone she liked.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Zhong still refused to give up.

The reason why he came back this time was because the girl from the Hua family returned to China. He followed her back.

Judging from his unhappy look, it might be related to that girl from the Hua family.

Cheng Zhong pushed Du Lan aside, entered the Qilin Hall, picked up a bottle of whiskey and drank it directly from his mouth.

However, He Tianming at the back seemed to be in deep thought...

That girl’s name is also “Qingqing”?

I must be overthinking it. How could a country bumpkin like Ye Qing be with Hua Xuting?

In the Phoenix Hall.

The banquet had been set. The birthday boy, Ding Xiuwen, sat in the middle, with Rong Yuanhan and Ye Qing on either side. As for Hua Xuting and Cui Yue, they sat in the guest seats.

If Hua Xuting still held out a glimmer of hope before, she had completely given up after seeing this scene.

Cui Yue gritted her teeth as she watched Ye Qing with an extremely critical look...

In terms of status, Cui Yue claimed to be familiar with all the famous ladies in Zhongdu City, but she had never seen Ye Qing before. Needless to say, they were definitely not from a prestigious family.

In terms of appearance, she looks just pretty at the moment, and she's so fat. Hua Xuting's appearance must be far better than hers.

Is Rong Heng blinded by greed to fall for such a thing?

As for her nephew, since her second sister-in-law Ding Xiuwen was not in the old lady's eyes, Rong Heng, the son of Ding Xiuwen, was also not favored by the old lady.

Moreover, unlike his other sons who all lived in the old house, Rong Yuanhan lived in the dormitory building of Zhongdu University with his wife and children.

Therefore, Cui Yue didn't know much about Rong Heng.

All I know is that this nephew has been a good student since he was young. After graduating with a doctorate, he joined a scientific research unit and it seems that he often has to travel on business.

Although they are all paid by the government, what future can they have by doing scientific research?

After listening to this, Cui Yue stopped asking questions.

When Cui Yue accidentally found out that Hua Xuting actually fell in love with Rong Heng, she was very surprised, but she also thought that it was really lucky for a nerd to win the heart of a girl from the Hua family.

What I didn't expect was that not only was Rong Heng blind, but my second brother and his wife were also fools who watched Rong Heng do stupid things.

What's even more terrible is that if the situation is not salvaged quickly, this matter will be a complete mess and Hua Xuting will lose face. Not to mention asking the Hua family to give her parents' family a green light to help, it would be good enough if they don't make trouble.

But she was the brother's wife after all, and it was not easy for her to go beyond Rong Yuanhan and his wife's decision to drive Ye Qing out, but she just couldn't stand Ye Qing. When she saw the bag next to Ye Qing, her expression suddenly became even more contemptuous...

The paper bag looked like it was casually wrapped by a street flower shop. It was hard to imagine what good things were inside.

He then greeted Ding Xiuwen and said:

"Has Second Sister-in-law stayed up too late? Why does her face look a little yellow? Oh, why do you have spots... Tingting is really thoughtful. I was wondering why she picked a set of cosmetics for Second Sister-in-law..."

"This set of cosmetics costs hundreds of thousands..."

As he said this, he looked at Ye Qing with a half-smile:

"Qingqing, right? You are of a different status, so you must have prepared something better for my second sister-in-law's birthday, right? Take it out quickly and let us see it."

They have been sisters-in-law for more than ten years. Ding Xiuwen knows Cui Yue's character very well. It is obvious that she wants to embarrass Ye Qing.

But the couple had heard Rong Heng talk about Ye Qing's background before. Not only was he from the countryside, but both his parents were gone.

Isn't it unreasonable for Cui Yue to compare her with a young lady like Hua Xuting?

Busy helping to smooth things over:

"You're not a child, how can you open the presents in front of the guests? Besides, Qingqing's coming here is the best birthday present. What to prepare is secondary..."

"There's no one here, so what's wrong with taking a look?" Cui Yue insisted, "Second sister-in-law thinks so highly of it, I want to broaden my horizons even more... Come on, Miss Ye, take it out and show us what this unique and good thing is... When we go back, when the old lady asks about it, I can tell her how rare it is, right?"

No matter what, it depends on the meaning of Ye Qing’s birthday gift.

"You are right. The gift I gave to my aunt is indeed a unique and good thing in the world." Ye Qing slowly took over the topic.

As soon as Cui Yue showed up, Ye Qing knew she had bad intentions, and now she was asking to see his gift, so naturally she had no good intentions.

But if it were anything else, it would be fine, but Ye Qing was so sure that this set of Xianzi beauty cream and Xianzi facial mask that she made by herself, let alone cosmetics worth tens of thousands, even cosmetics worth one million could not compare to this set of hers.

Cui Yue was stunned by his calm and composed look:

"So, I guessed it right? I have seen all those famous brands. I want to see what kind of things can be called unique?"

Ye Qing took the packaging bag directly to the table, untied the bow on it, and took out two azure blue bottles from it.

There is a hibiscus flower outlined with a gold pen on the bottle. On the petals of the hibiscus are two trembling crystal clear dewdrops. In the middle of the round dewdrops there are two seal-script characters "仙姿".

"Nice painting, nice calligraphy!" Rong Yuanhan usually has a hobby of collecting calligraphy and paintings. When he saw the bottle and the lotus, especially the two words, his expression was immediately amazed...

The two seal-script characters are written with mature brushstrokes and vigorous momentum. They are not inferior to the calligraphy works of famous painters and calligraphers in my collection. No, it should be said that they are even better.

He actually picked up the two bottles, looked them up and down, and seemed to be reluctant to let them go:

"Qingqing, who painted this? And the words on it, are they from that famous artist?"

"Why is such a nice bottle used to store cosmetics? If it gets bumped or scratched..."

It actually feels like a waste of God's gifts.

Ye Qing was not polite:

&nbs> "If uncle likes it, I will draw a picture for you on his birthday... As for this set, it's for aunt."

In his previous life, due to his physical limitations, Ye Qing loved to paint and write when he had nothing to do besides treating patients. Besides, he would write several or even dozens of prescriptions a day. In Ye Qing's opinion, his calligraphy and medicine were just so-so, and he was not even close to those of his brothers and father, let alone those famous masters.

As for Rong Yuanhan being amazed, Ye Qing could understand it. After all, there were very few people in this era who could sit down and write, while they could travel around the world with just a mobile phone.

Hua Xuting was a little gloomy... From her impression, Rong Heng also looked like Rong Yuanhan, and deep down, they loved traditional things the most. Could it be that this was the reason why he got together with Ye Qing?

Cui Yue also graduated from a prestigious university, so how could she not see that the calligraphy and painting were indeed exquisite? She never expected that Ye Qing would say that both the painting and the calligraphy were from her hand. She did not expect that this Ye was quite talented. If she had not been obsessed with helping Hua Xuting, she would have been a good match for Rong Heng, the nerd.

After changing his mind, he burst out laughing:
