Chapter 587: Chapter 585: Invitation from the Ning Family 3_1

The little guy immediately began to laugh happily.

Lu Tingli narrowed his eyes, thinking that he must find a non-holiday to travel the world, especially when the little one couldn’t follow and would have to stay in school and study!

Chuanchuan had no idea what sinister plan his dad was concocting, as he was sweetly sleeping in his mother’s arms at the time.

The position was the same as always, with Chuanchuan held by Xia Ningxing, who in turn was embraced by Lu Tingli.

When the award organization of UA heard that Xia Ningxing had arrived, they sent someone the next day with many dresses for her to try on.

But Xia Ningxing refused them, "Thank you, but I brought my own dress."

"Ok!" The person smiled, responded in English, and packed up the dresses.

Once they left, Mrs. Xia couldn’t help but ask, "Bao’er, what kind of dress did you bring?"

"Actually, what I brought is hardly a dress. I’ll just show it to you," Xia Ningxing said, retrieving the "dress" from her room.

Upon seeing it, Mrs. Xia and the others couldn’t help but twitch at the corners of their mouths.

"Isn’t this just a white coat?"

Yes!

It was just a white coat!

Similar to the kind commonly seen on doctors.

However, this one had some traditional design elements, specifically, it had a mandarin-style buttoned closure.

The reason for this design was to distinguish practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine from Western medicine doctors.

The fabric of Xia Ningxing’s white coat was made of high-quality material with great durability; should there be any trouble with patients, such as being accidentally stabbed with a knife or splashed with sulfuric acid, it would be unharmed.

It was like a bulletproof vest.

Listening to Xia Ningxing’s description, everyone’s foreheads were streaked with several lines of bewilderment.

"It’s, it’s pretty good," everyone mumbled unconvincingly.

"Only, Bao’er, might this be too simple and plain?" Mrs. Xia couldn’t help but speak up again.

In her view, for such a glorious occasion, her Bao’er should be wearing luxurious clothes, adorned with jewelry, and proudly ascending the stage to receive the award.

Not wearing a white coat.

"It is indeed a bit simple and plain," Xia Ningxing had to admit, but added, "Mom, though it might be plain, its symbolic meaning and value outshine any dress in the world!"

Undeniably, the white coat is the symbol of healing and helping the injured.

Therefore, wearing it to attend a medical award ceremony couldn’t be more appropriate!

"I agree with Xingxing’s point. The white coat suits the occasion well, and besides, Xingxing is so beautiful that even in simplicity, she’ll be the most dazzling and eye-catching person at the event!" The elder, initially speaking sensibly, ended up tossing in a few embellished compliments as he continued.

"Exactly!" The others quickly echoed the sentiment.

At this point, Mrs. Xia also came to an understanding, and emphatically agreed, "Exactly, with our Bao’er’s looks, she could wear the plainest outfit and still be the beauty of the event!"

The dress was simple, and Xia Ningxing chose an equally simple style for her hair and makeup.

After applying light makeup, she tied her hair into a ponytail.

With her hair down, she looked somewhat mature, but now with a ponytail, Xia Ningxing resembled a girl of just eighteen.

Nobody could tell that she was already a mother.

The medical award ceremony of UA officially began.

Standing on the award podium at that moment, the stage lights all converged on Xia Ningxing’s exquisitely beautiful face in an instant.

She was too beautiful.

Breath-takingly beautiful.

So beautiful that one couldn’t find the words to describe it.

Even though she was only wearing a simple white lab coat.

Pure, angelic.

Everyone who saw her at that moment would simultaneously think of such descriptors.

After the award presentation was over, the host picked up the microphone with a smile and said, "I want to congratulate Lady Xia Ningxing once again for winning the Star Shine Medical Award. Now, may I invite Lady Xia Ningxing to say a few words about her achievement."

"Lady Xia, please make your statement."

Xia Ningxing took the microphone and answered in fluent, native English, "Actually, I don’t have much to say regarding winning this award. I was just doing my duty, I..."

Her tone was gentle and calm, neither humble nor arrogant. She did not display any arrogance from winning the award; instead, she was modest and humble, which made people like her even more.

Meanwhile, the Ning Family, hidden in the mountains, was also closely watching the live broadcast of the medical award ceremony.

The woman sitting in the main seat had a beautiful face with youthful, delicate skin, appearing to be in her early thirties, dressed in a white lab coat with a mandarin collar, her long hair tied up high, her pupils fixed on the girl on the TV.

For some reason, she was clearly distracted, as if she had thought of something.

Then, a glimmer flickered in Mrs. Xia Ning’s eyes as she spoke, "Who would have thought that the girl winning this award would be so young and pretty? The younger generation is indeed formidable, truly formidable!"

"The old saying is not wrong at all: the waves behind drive the waves before, and we who are the former will eventually be washed up on the beach."

Her dignified face showed a warm smile, and although her voice was wistful, those eyes held an excitement that others hadn’t noticed.

Is it her?

Could it be her?

Her daughter?

She had such a guess because usually only children of the direct descendant bloodline of a Traditional Medicine Family would possess such talent.

That’s why... she was guessing this way.

"Aunt, how can you belittle yourself like this? Xia Ningxing, an actress, doesn’t have the ability to leave you washed up on the beach," said a charming girl stepping forward, hugging Mrs. Xia Ning’s arm with a tone that was both whiny and flattering.

If Xia Ningxing were here, she would definitely recognize her as Ning Xiaoyou, who had previously stolen her Medicinal Wood Flower.

Mrs. Xia Ning’s face imperceptibly darkened as she smoothly pushed away her arm and changed the subject, "I heard that you stole Xia Ningxing’s Medicinal Wood Flower?"

If it were any other time, she would turn a blind eye to this matter.

But now, Xia Ningxing might still be her daughter, and she could not let anyone speak ill of her own child.

"I..." Ning Xiaoyou obviously hadn’t expected her aunt to know about this, and she felt guilt-ridden, unsure of what to say.

At the side, another girl curved her lips, obviously delighting in the misfortune of others.

She was Ning Xiaoyou’s cousin, Ning Mo, as referred to by Ning Xiaoyou.

Seeing Ning Mo laughing at her own expense, Ning Xiaoyou’s expression turned even more embarrassed, wishing she could find a crack in the earth to crawl into.

Mr. Ning quickly stepped forward to defend her, "Sister, this matter has nothing to do with Yoyo; it was I who took it!"

"Ahem, actually it’s not really stealing, we just borrowed it without asking for permission," Mr. Ning forced an excuse for himself.

"Oh, how very polite of you!" Mrs. Xia Ning couldn’t help but snort coldly, her words dripping with sarcasm.
