Chapter 397: Chapter 396: (1 more update)

Arriving at the Xu Family, the courtyard outside was already filled with tables and chairs, with the servants busily arranging things among them.

But there weren’t many guests yet.

Because it was still early before the banquet was set to start.

Xu Niannian got out of the car and headed straight to Xu Sisi’s room.

Today, Xu Wentian was hosting a recognition party, and Zuo Qing would definitely need to help entertain guests at home.

Just as she was discussing the details with Uncle Guan, out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure in water blue.

Xu Niannian’s appearance was the kind that one wouldn’t forget after a single encounter.

And it was more than just one encounter that Zuo Qing had with her.

With just one look, Zuo Qing recognized her as Xu Niannian.

Startled, she turned her head to look over, just as Xu Niannian, lifting the hem of her dress, ran upstairs, not seeing Zuo Qing and Uncle Guan on the other side.

Seeing Xu Niannian stopped Zuo Qing in her tracks.

In astonishment, she asked Uncle Guan, "Uncle Guan, is that...?"

Uncle Guan had also seen Xu Niannian, and upon Zuo Qing’s inquiry, he kindly informed her.

"That’s the elder grandson’s daughter and Elder Master Jin’s grandson’s wife, named Xu Niannian, the girl who bumped into you last time."

"Is it her?"

Zuo Qing’s eyes widened in disbelief, "But Uncle Guan, didn’t you say she wasn’t the one?"

Last time, Zuo Qing had seen Xu Niannian in front of Xu’s Liuyue Su.

At that time, she didn’t know Xu Niannian was the girl who had bumped into her.

It was just a guess, because Uncle Guan had said that the girl who bumped into her was very beautiful.

But later Uncle Guan checked, and said it wasn’t her, didn’t he?

Uncle Guan didn’t understand what Zuo Qing meant.

Looking at her perplexedly.

Zuo Qing explained, "When I went to buy Liuyue Su for my godfather last time, didn’t I tell you that I saw a very beautiful girl? That was her."

Upon hearing this, Uncle Guan instantly understood.

"You saw her last time?"

"Yeah, could there be someone else?" Zuo Qing said dumbfoundedly.

Uncle Guan was briefly stunned before he smiled helplessly, "The girl I saw last time wasn’t her, I thought you were talking about someone else."

So that’s how the misunderstanding had arisen.

If he and Miss Zuo Qing had seen Miss Sun at the same time, the elder grandson could have recognized Miss Sun a bit sooner.

But perhaps this was fate between the grandfather and granddaughter.

"So, she really is grandpa’s biological granddaughter and Sisi’s sister?" murmured Zuo Qing.

Uncle Guan, only considering the relationship between Xu Niannian and Xu Sisi, told Zuo Qing, "Miss Niannian is the eldest young master’s child, Miss Sisi is the second young master’s child."

Upon hearing this, Zuo Qing felt a sway before her eyes.

She lost control and swayed slightly.

She was actuallly Xu Sisi’s cousin.

Meaning, she had told her rival’s sister that the person she liked, liked Xu Sisi.

Zuo Qing was someone who had a strong sense of right and wrong.

Even though she and Xu Sisi weren’t blood-related aunt and niece, she still felt that it was terrible for the man she liked to like her nominal niece.

Oh my god.

Zuo Qing covered her forehead with a headache, what had she been doing?

"Miss Qingqing, what’s wrong?"

Uncle Guan noticed she was off and asked with concern.

Zuo Qing shook her head vaguely, "It’s nothing."

She bit her lip subconsciously.

Xu Niannian, Xu Sisi...

She should have realized it sooner.

The way their names were styled was so similar, and, and...

On closer thought, Xu Niannian and Xu Sisi’s facial features were actually quite alike.

It was only because the two had such contrasting temperaments that she hadn’t considered they might be sisters.

Xu Niannian was unaware that Zuo Qing had seen her, nor did she know that Zuo Qing was her nominal Young Aunt.

At this moment, she was in Xu Sisi’s room.

Xu Sisi had caught a cold, too excited the previous night, and because it was too hot at night here, she took a cold shower before going to bed.

Covered with a quilt over her head, Xu Sisi asked Xu Niannian with a nasal voice, "Sister Niannian, why did you come so early?"

"Is it still early? It’s almost evening,"

Xu Niannian shook her head helplessly, "How did you manage to catch a cold?"

This girl was truly creating surprises anytime, anywhere.

"I don’t know," Xu Sisi sniffled, "Isn’t it because it was too hot? So I took a cool bath. I didn’t expect to catch a cold."

Due to the cold, Xu Sisi’s voice sounded buzzy, as if muffled in her mouth.

Her normal voice tended to be crisp, and when she chattered, she sounded like a cheerful sparrow.

But now, because of the cold, she was less lively, her speech feeble, giving her a somewhat pitiable look.

"Alright, get up quickly. The guests will be arriving soon, and I’ll help you get ready."

At the mention of getting ready, Xu Sisi immediately perked up, "Sister Niannian, are you going to dress me up?"

Her eyes lit up instantly, round and dark and shiny, like two pieces of black agate.

Xu Niannian looked at her for a moment, pinched her chin, and forced her to lift her head, squinting, "Let me see how the scar on your face is doing."

Xu Sisi strained to tilt her head back to make it easier for Xu Niannian to inspect.

"Sister Niannian, how is it?"

She hadn’t looked in the mirror these last few days.

But she did follow Xu Niannian’s instructions, drinking the beauty care products sent over.

Not just drinking them, she also added them to her bathwater.
