Chapter 708 - 562: She Has Value Only with Purpose (Part 2)
——That just means not making an appearance.
Not making an appearance would cut off all those chances for complex people to create endless trouble for her.
...
By the next morning, everything about Fang Han’s wedding had settled down.
When Fang Huai called again, Ning Youguang answered right away.
"Sorry, Huaihuai, I was in the lab all day yesterday and couldn’t catch your calls."
"It’s okay, Youyou," Fang Huai said, yawning through the phone, sounding very tired.
"Did you not sleep well last night?" Ning Youguang asked with concern.
"I didn’t sleep badly," Fang Huai replied, "I just didn’t sleep at all last night."
"Uncle, you must have been really busy last night," Ning Youguang joked, "Get some rest if you’re tired."
"I just got to my room, going to take a shower and then sleep." Fang Huai lay sore and tired on the hotel bed, hesitating as he looked at the snow-white ceiling, "Youyou, will you come to my sister’s wedding in Beijing?"
"I don’t know, I’ll decide then."
Even knowing that Fang Huai’s personality had changed, Ning Youguang still wouldn’t say everything to him.
Because she knows this kid doesn’t have an ulterior motive.
She won’t leave any openings here to trouble herself.
Fang Huai may be simple-minded, but it doesn’t mean he won’t contemplate things multiple times without understanding them.
So, upon hearing Ning Youguang’s reply.
He was already clear in his heart that his cousin wouldn’t attend her sister’s wedding in Beijing.
Thinking about some things that happened today, he said to Ning Youguang, "She was quite annoyed that you didn’t come to my sister’s wedding today."
"Oh." Ning Youguang didn’t apologize, and even her response felt somewhat absent-minded.
This further confirmed Fang Huai’s thoughts, so he continued, "When she has the wedding banquet in Beijing, she might want you to attend, just be prepared."
"Thank you, Huaihuai." Ning Youguang chuckled lightly, "Got it."
"Why are you being polite with me, Youyou?" Fang Huai also chuckled, "I’m tired, about to shower and sleep, you must be going to work soon, right?"
"Yes," Ning Youguang said, "I’m about to have breakfast, and then head to work."
"Oh." Fang Huai’s voice was gentle, and he let out another big yawn as soon as he finished speaking, "Then you get going."
"Alright, I’ll hang up now, let’s chat when we’re free."
Ning Youguang finished speaking and was about to hang up the phone.
Unexpectedly, on the other end, Fang Huai quickly and hesitantly asked, "Youyou, will you come to my wedding?"
"Of course!" Ning Youguang answered resolutely.
Then, in a joking tone, she said, "You’re not a big celebrity, the wedding site won’t have lots of news media waiting to follow you, why wouldn’t I go?"
"Surely!" Fang Huai thought Ning Youguang finally told him her reasons for not attending the wedding.
Feeling delighted.
He could totally understand, "My wedding won’t have that much hassle, you must come then."
"I’ll come." Ning Youguang said cheerfully, "When you find someone you want to marry, make sure to tell me in advance, and I’ll have a gift ready for you."
"Will do!" Fang Huai, temporarily still single, was thrilled, "When I find the girl I want to marry, I’ll tell you right away."
"Okay." Ning Youguang chuckled softly, "It’s getting late, I’ll have breakfast now."
"Bye-bye!" Fang Huai, spirits lifted, also hung up quickly.
...
As Ning Youguang hung up, Shi Wangyue was bringing two plates of breakfast out.
"Early in the morning, who were you talking to?"
"Fang Huai." Ning Youguang gently placed her phone on the nearby dining table, "The kid’s grown up, started to have a mind of his own."
"Kid?" Shi Wangyue sat across from her, pushing the steaming seaweed and shrimp wonton soup and multi-grain soy milk in front of Ning Youguang.
"Just joking." Ning Youguang wrapped her hands around the warm multi-grain soy milk, feeling warmth spread through her body, she sighed comfortably, "Just reflecting on some things and feeling quite sentimental."
"Thinking about your little aunt’s family?" Shi Wangyue took a sip of wonton soup, tested the saltiness, then got up.
"What are you doing?" Ning Youguang asked curiously.
"Getting pepper."
Shi Wangyue quickly found the jar of white pepper from the cabinet and returned to the table.
He sprinkled some pepper into Ning Youguang’s bowl of wontons before adding to his own, saying, "It’s cold today; when you come back tonight, let’s sort the wardrobe and get out the thick clothes."
"Okay." Ning Youguang agreed without objection.
Basically, she’d been to the garden to check on the flowers and immediately felt frozen, sensing the temperature had indeed dropped.
"Let’s not cook tonight," she added after thinking, "You’ve got so much going on, don’t tire yourself."
"Alright."
The two chatted a bit about daily life before returning to the topic of Fang’s family.
"People who become spouses usually have some matching qualities; as long as they can mutually recognize each other and live harmoniously without harming others’ interests, there’s nothing wrong with it." Shi Wangyue said very calmly and objectively.
"You’re right." Ning Youguang understood quite clearly, "Ultimately, everyone becomes the victim or beneficiary of their own morality, without exception."
"Paying one’s own price." Shi Wangyue nodded.
Except, this price continuously flashes throughout the long journey of life, with ups and downs every second, and many people are often completely unaware.
When everything finally settles, they still believe it’s fate. 1314
