Hearing Zhuang Keer's words, Zhuang Liaoyuan's face did not show any expression of longing or emotion. Instead, he looked as if his reverse scale had been touched, and his expression became even colder. "This matter is not your business. Just pretend you have never heard of it, and never mention it in front of your grandfather."
Zhuang Keer actually expected that her father might say this. Seeing her father's grim expression, she nodded obediently, "Oh, I understand."
Since Zhuang Liaoyuan had already made his attitude clear, the wedding invitation that Ning Xueluo had mentioned earlier was naturally ignored by Zhuang Ke'er.
Although her father didn't want to mention the specific situation, there must be something hidden here. She couldn't just listen to Ning Xueluo's one-sided story, and she wouldn't intervene rashly.
Even for Xiao Xi, she didn't want to have too much interaction with this cousin who appeared out of nowhere...
…
Platinum Palace.
Tonight, Lu Tingxiao cooked and Xiaobao helped him. Ning Xi was ordered by the father and son to leave the kitchen and just wait for the meal.
Ning Xi casually browsed the entertainment news, which was filled with reports about Ning Xueluo and Su Yan's wedding. She couldn't browse any other entertainment gossip, so she had no choice but to close the interface and continue to peek at Little Bun and Big Bun.
Ning Xi had just put down her phone when it suddenly rang.
When I looked at the caller ID, it was Tang Nuo calling.
Is there something wrong at home again
Ning Xi quickly answered the phone, "Hello, Xiao Nuo? Did something happen at home? Did those people come back to look for you again?"
"No, no! Sister, they never came back to look for us. Oh, no, they did come to our house once, but they came to give us flowers and fruits, and their attitude was very polite..."
It was obvious that he was scared by Ning Xi's beating last time, so it seemed right to focus on defeating him in one go.
"Oh, that's good!" Ning Xi finally felt relieved and said with a smile, "Young man, the college entrance examination is just a few days away. Do you need me to accompany you to take the exam and cheer you up?"
"No, please don't, no one of you come, just let me stay calm!" Tang Nuo said hurriedly.
Ning Xi chuckled, "Okay, whatever! Come on, I'm still waiting for you to pass the exam and come to the capital!"
"Sister, just wait, I will definitely come!"
"Oh, you're so arrogant!" Ning Xi teased. However, Tang Nuo's grades have always been good, so it will be no problem for him to pass the entrance exam to the Imperial Capital.
"By the way, sis... I called you... Actually, there's something else..." Tang Nuo seemed a little embarrassed to speak, and after a moment of hesitation, he continued, "sis, you came back too suddenly and too hastily last time, and we didn't have time to keep you. Mom and Dad meant... you helped so much, we have to treat you to a meal. When are you free, can you come home? Sis... our family... haven't been together for a long time..."
Tang Nuo's last sentence sounded very pitiful.
The sister he had been closest to since childhood suddenly left like this and became a stranger to him. Tang Nuo felt very upset, but this matter involved too many things. His parents also opposed him having too much contact with Ning Xi. He could only bear it no matter how much he missed her. It was not until Ning Xi unexpectedly came home that the relationship was finally resolved...
Ning Xi hesitated for a moment after hearing that. After listening to the boy's cautious and pitiful voice, she still couldn't bear to refuse directly, "Okay, I'll go when I'm free..."
"Really? Sister, you promised! Don't regret it!"
