Chapter 175 The Awareness of Maintenance 17
That day, Ziyue went to her godparents' house for dinner.
The eldest and second eldest brothers were not home; only the third brother, Bai Yuyan, and Bai's parents were there.
After dinner, the group sat chatting in the living room. Madam Bai looked hesitant, "Yueyue, tell your godmother the truth, you and Master Xiang..."
With a smile, Ziyue took her arm and rested her head on her shoulder. "Godmother, Xiang Nan and I are getting to know each other. Hmm, maybe it won't be long before he has to call you godmother too."
Upon hearing this, Madam Bai and her father exchanged a glance.
Madam Bai patted the hand that Ziyue was holding and sighed, "You, I don't know how you met him, but it's fate between the two of you."
"I've heard of this Fourth Master Xiang. Rumor has it that he's ruthless, vicious, and bloodthirsty, killing people without hesitation. But I've never met him, and I know that rumors aren't always reliable."
"Your godmother is just a little worried. Is he truly sincere towards you? Your godmother doesn't want to see you get hurt. She only wants to see you happy and safe."
Bai's father and Bai Yuyan, who were standing nearby, seemed to be chatting casually, but their attention was actually on Bai's mother and her.
Ziyue knew that her godparents were definitely worried about her and were doing it for her own good.
She sat up straight and said, "Godmother, don't worry, I'll bring Xiang Nan with me next time so you and Godfather can take a look at him and give me your opinion."
Upon hearing this, Madam Bai immediately smiled and said, "Alright, alright, your godfather and godmother will help you make a judgment. Our Yueyue is so good, no bad man is worthy of her."
Bai Yuyan, who was standing nearby, couldn't hold back any longer. She got up from the sofa next to her father and squeezed over to Ziyue and her mother. "Yueyue, are you really dating Master Xiang? Is he fierce? Does he bully you? Do you really like him?"
There have been rumors about Fourth Master Xiang and the daughter of the Qing family for a long time, and he has wanted to ask about it for a long time, but he has never run into them.
In his heart, his sister was perfect in every way, and deserved the best man in the world. Besides, his sister was still young, so there was no rush. Who knew that she would be taken so early?
Before Ziyue could even speak after hearing Bai Yuyan's series of questions, Bai's mother rolled her eyes.
That good-for-nothing! I used to think that Bai Yuyan and Yueyue were childhood sweethearts who grew up together, and that I would have a chance to marry Yueyue and make her my daughter-in-law.
As it turns out, this guy just doesn't get it.
Moreover, she truly only felt brotherly affection for Yueyue, without any romantic feelings for her. Otherwise, she and Lao Bai would have shamelessly gone to the Qing family to propose marriage.
It's a pity that the Bai family didn't have the good fortune to have such a wonderful girl like Yueyue.
Their three sons are all good-for-nothings!
Brother Bai and Brother Bai's second brother, who were discussing business in different places, suddenly choked—
They all thought to themselves: It must be the third brother cursing them!
Poor Bai Da Ge and Bai Er Ge, who are not around right now, have no idea that they are being criticized and deeply disliked by their own mother.
Bai Yuyan: So, I'm the only one left to take the blame?
-
However, Ziyue's answer wasn't even needed; Bai Yuyan could talk for half an hour straight without stopping.
"Yueyue, let me tell you, you shouldn't judge a man by his appearance alone. Some men are two-faced; they put on such a perfect act, like a gentleman, gentle and refined..."
"And then there are those who specialize in living off women who have no descendants. They live off women, and they always insist on taking advantage of them, even going so far as to..."
"And then there are those who seem like decent human beings on the surface, but are filthy inside, with thoughts as old-fashioned as relics..."
Looking at Bai Yuyan's incessant chatter, Ziyue's lips twitched. "You're a man too! How can you be so disrespectful to men? You're showing no respect whatsoever to men, belittling them as if there's no good among them."
Didn't you see that Mr. Bai next to me looked a little embarrassed?
As for Bai's mother, she turned around and could only see her shoulders shrugging. It was estimated that she was about to burst out laughing.
Bai Yuyan, well, don't let his young age fool you, he's been precocious since childhood. Compared to his eldest brother's uprightness and his second brother's gentleness, the third brother is more unconventional and, like the original owner, a real devil.
Outside, he's a man of his word, ruthless and decisive; but inside, he's a chatterbox who says whatever comes to mind.
However, sometimes it's quite interesting to listen to him talk, and he really does mean well for her.
"Don't worry, Third Brother. Next time I bring someone over, you can help me check him out. If he can't even pass your test, then he's definitely not good enough for me. I'll just leave him, okay?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Yuyan nodded repeatedly.
Fourth Master Xiang has always kept a low profile, and few people have ever seen him. He usually only interacts with the heads of various families. Among the younger generation, very few have actually met him.
Regardless of whether he's favored by the Fourth Master or the Fifth Master, he's determined to see what's so special about him that he's won Yueyue's favor.
If they treat Yueyue badly, they won't stand for it.
-
So, Ziyue mentioned it to Xiang Nan, asking him to go with her to meet her godparents when he had time.
Xiang Nan naturally also highly values the elders that Zi Yue likes and respects.
He had already made his intentions clear to Qingfu, and as an elder whom Ziyue valued, as well as Ziyue's godparents, it was only natural for him to pay a visit to the Bai family.
Moreover, he knew that the Bai family had three childhood sweethearts who had grown up with his daughter.
Although he knew they only had brotherly and sisterly feelings and no romantic feelings, his Qingqing was so wonderful that he still wanted to see her in person before he could feel at ease.
"Yueyue, tell me about Madam Bai's likes and dislikes, and any taboos, so I won't be impolite."
"Well, Godfather likes to drink tea, and Godmother loves jewelry, especially pearl jewelry. Brother Bai likes to write, likes ancient books, and likes to collect rare books. Brother Bai loves to eat and likes to collect all kinds of food recipes."
"As for my third brother Bai, he loves all sorts of strange and interesting things," Ziyue paused, a smile playing on her lips, and continued, "but there's one thing, he's very vain, more vain than most girls, and lives a more refined life than most girls."
"However, you don't need to prepare any skincare products. I made all of his skincare products. Just see if you have any odd little gadgets and prepare them accordingly."
He nodded to the south; he had made a note of it.
However, Bai Yuyan of the Bai family is actually like this? This is the first time he has ever heard of a man who is more concerned with beauty and more meticulous than a girl, and who even takes care of his skin.
But thinking about his own face, he realized that Qingqing really liked his face.
Or perhaps he should get some maintenance too?
What if he becomes ugly and Qingqing doesn't like him anymore?
That won't work!
However, knowing that Bai Yuyan's skincare products were all made by his Qingqing herself, he felt a little jealous and wanted some too.
"Once I'm ready, I'll let Qingqing take a look first. If there's anything that's not suitable, I'll change it immediately."
Ziyue shook his hand, "Okay, no problem."
"I want the skincare products you gave Bai Yuyan too."
Hearing the words of the man beside her, Ziyue paused slightly, then looked on with a wry smile. Was he jealous again?
"Okay, okay, I'll get it for you when we get back." Ziyue looked at the handsome face beside her, and she could never get enough of looking at it.
Well, it's good to take good care of yourself. You can't just ruin your good looks because you were born with them.
Shouldn't we also focus on sustainable development?
All I can say is that this man has a pretty good level of awareness.
