Chapter 700 - 559: The Eldest Miss Has Been Driven Mad with Anger! (Part 3)
Ning Xian thought about how generous her brother and sister-in-law were with their gifts this time, and she felt her son made sense. Her internal balance began to swing, sometimes thinking her son was right and her daughter was being overly capricious, other times feeling her daughter was correct and her niece lacked manners. Although the elders from the family were all attending her sister’s wedding, a junior like her actually claimed to be too busy to come...
Her mind was in a tug-of-war, which gave Ning Xian a headache, indeed it was a real headache.
She reached out to rub her temples, with a face full of headache, "In any case, as a family, we can’t just watch your sister be unhappy today, so..."
After contemplating for a while, she turned and spoke to Fang Huai behind her, "Son, call Youyou again, ask if she can catch the next available flight for dinner. If she’s really busy, we can book her a flight first thing in the morning, so she won’t miss her work. See if she agrees."
Out of Ning Xian’s sight, Fang Huai pursed his lips.
He felt his sister was just being difficult and liked to act up, while his mom simply listened to whatever she said and acted up alongside her.
So late already, yet they insisted on demanding things from others, just because Fang Han wasn’t happy, calling Youyou back from faraway Beijing, as if taking a flight, catching connections, and traversing back and forth wouldn’t be tiring.
But Fang Huai, being an exceptionally qualified freeloader, knew that no matter how much he messed about usually, in crucial times, he absolutely couldn’t be on the opposing side of his mom, otherwise he would be in trouble.
Thus, after exhaling deeply said, "Mom, I can call Youyou now, but I can’t guarantee she’ll come."
"Make the call," Ning Xian opened her eyes, lightly tilting her head to see her son, "I’ll listen."
Fang Huai then, in front of Ning Xian, took out his phone and dialed Ning Youguang’s number.
Beep—beep—beep—
Very soon, after the call went through, it rang for quite a while, but no one answered.
Only after a familiar female voice sounded, Fang Huai hung up and sighed to his mom, "No answer, Youyou must be busy."
Ning Xian kept a stern face without speaking.
Seeing his mom’s unpleasant expression, Fang Huai continued, "Youyou must be in the lab. When she’s in the lab, she doesn’t carry her phone, so mom, I think we should drop it."
Unexpectedly, just then, Fang Han who had stormed off earlier came back in with a few staff members,
"Drop it?!"
She sharply questioned Fang Huai, "Call again, today you’re not going anywhere, stay here and keep calling her until you get through."
Fang Huai could tolerate the bad temper of his providers but absolutely wouldn’t indulge his sister’s unreasonable antics.
Thus, under Fang Han’s sharp coercion as she entered, irritation surged.
He snorted, flipped his phone into his pocket, stepped out from behind Ning Xian, and stood directly facing Fang Han, "Fang Han, don’t think starring in a few big female lead dramas makes you a queen, the center of the world, that everyone must listen to you! Do I owe you?!"
Finished speaking, he rolled his eyes, grabbed his pocket and walked out without turning back.
Already furious, Fang Han exploded this time.
Turning around, she watched the young man leave without a backward glance, stomped her feet angrily, "Fang Huai! Come back here!"
Her voice was already sharp, and in her fury, the piercing shout seemed capable of cutting through walls and roof.
Not to mention those who quietly came back to continue applying her make-up, already stressed and cautious staff.
Even Ning Xian sitting on the sofa was startled by her daughter’s uncontrolled manner.
Once she realized what her daughter had done, she quickly stood up, moved swiftly to cover her mouth, gently reminding, "What are you doing? Even if you’re angrier, don’t do this, your in-laws are just next door!"
After reminding Fang Han, Ning Xian then looked sternly at the staff who had just entered, standing like wooden stakes, "Apologies, could you step outside for a moment? We have something to talk about, and once we’re done, I’ll invite you back in."
Despite saying apologies, her expression was of high-and-mighty command.
The staff, having been sent out once and now again just after entering,
Young people who love equality and freedom, living in the new era, found it really hard to stomach the family treating them like servants, even if they were paid.
Thus, without saying a word, everyone turned and exited the presidential suite door with their tools in hand. 1314
