Chapter 1731: This Kid was Sharp in His Words Just Like His Father
“…”
Before Nian Xi could speak, she felt as if thousands of arrows had pierced through her heart because of his words.
Little Apple was gloomy. “Did you guys forgot to buy me the yak meat?”
Jiang Yuning’s face was slightly hot. He bent down and said gently, “We went to Tibet and brought you a lot of yak meat. It is in the luggage. Can I give it to you later?”
“That’s great!” Little Apple jumped up and down happily. “But is the sun always so hot in Tibet? My mom said that she and my dad are going to Tibet in a few days. Will they turn out like this?”
After saying that, Little Apple was a little scared. He quickly held Luo Sang’s hand and said, “Mom, why don’t you go after you attend my first-grade entrance ceremony? If you become like aunty, I’ll… I’ll lose my reputation if I bring you along…”
Luo Sang pinched his cheek and said angrily, “Don’t talk nonsense.”
She paused, then asked Nian Xi, “Didn’t I buy you sunscreen? You and Yuning both look thinner. Didn’t you eat well or sleep well?”
Jiang Yuning lowered his head and was too embarrassed to explain why their honeymoon had become like this. Nian Xi said helplessly, “We stayed in Kailash for many days. The weather there was too cold, and the ultraviolet rays were too strong. Plus, it was tough to move around the mountain, so we ended up like this.”
Little Apple nodded as if he understood. “No wonder you got darker. It’s different from my parents’ skin which was glowing every time they secretly go on a trip without me.”
“Little brat, how many times have you poked fun of me today?” Nian Xi bent down and rubbed his chubby face.
Little Apple raised his hand and surrendered, “I’m sorry, aunty. There are some benefits when you are dark. Just like how you used to have a little freckle on your face, but now it was not visible anymore. Also, you used to always stay up late to work and have dark circles under your eyes. Now, all of them are gone. It’s simply too magical. It’s not so magical even if you were to go to Korea.”
“…”
Nian Xi was so angry that she almost vomited blood. This kid was just like his father. Not only did he hurt her by mentioning her past, but also her condition now. She shouldn’t have brought him yak meat all the way.
“Sure enough, you are your father’s son. You are his biological son,” Nian Xi clenched her teeth and said then she said to Luo Sang, “Sister-in-law, Kailash is such a nice place. It’s so sacred. After going there, I feel like I’ve been bathed in the light of Buddha. I feel like I’ve been reborn, and my soul has been cleansed. I feel like I can live another 500 years. You must go and see it. If you don’t, you’ll regret it for the rest of your life.”
Luo Sang, “…”
She stared at Nian Xi’s dry cheeks for a while, then couldn’t help herself from saying, “Xixi, it’s good that you’re back. I’ll give you a hydrating skincare set.”
Nian Xi was speechless.
When Luo Sang drove them back to the villa, it was already six o’clock.
Uncle Han had been waiting in the yard for a long time. When he saw them coming back, he was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly said, “It must be a long journey.” Then, he helped them carry their luggage upstairs.
Nian Xi threw herself onto the sofa. Jiang-jiang, who had not seen its owner for some time, jumped onto the sofa enthusiastically and licked her cheek with all his might.
“It’s so dirty.” Nian Xi pushed Jiang-jiang away in disgust. Jiang-jiang wagged his tail sadly.
Little Apple immediately hugged Jiang-jiang, feeling sorry for him. He complained, “Aunty, why are you so fierce to Jiang-jiang? He hasn’t seen you for a long time. Moreover, he licked your face until it wasn’t so dry anymore.”
“…”
Nian Xi was hurt again by his words. She didn’t lie down anymore and went upstairs to take a shower. After taking a shower, she applied a layer of lotion on her skin. Then she dried her hair and applied essential oil to it. She even did a full set of skincare therapy for her face before going downstairs.
