"Little Ning, think about it, has your Big Brother Yun ever gone back on his word?" Zhang Manyun asked Xue Meining in a serious tone.
Xue Meining didn't even need to think about it to know that he had! However, that was only to the bad guys … Big Brother Yun had never gone back on his word.
"Since your Big Brother Yun is a man of his word, he will definitely care about your birthday. I believe that he will definitely come back to celebrate your birthday no matter what the reason for his disappearance is!" Zhang Manyun saw that her daughter was deep in thought.
At the mention of Ling Yun, Xue Meining was at a loss. She stared blankly at her mother and muttered to herself, "But Big Brother Ling Yun has been missing for six days. So many things have happened these past few days, but he has never appeared. Will he really appear today?
"Moreover, if Big Brother Yun really appears, and he knows that something like this has happened at home …"
Zhang Manyun knew that there was a way. She had to coax her daughter downstairs first. The young valley master of the Miracle Physician Valley, Hu Shaobai, was here today. He was here specially to celebrate Ning Er's birthday. If Ning Er didn't come downstairs, wouldn't that be too disrespectful?
"Don't think too much about it. Isn't your grandfather trying to think of a solution? Ning Er, think about it. If your Big Brother Yun suddenly appears in front of you and sees you like this … "
This sentence was more effective than any medicine. Xue Meining jumped up from her bed. "Mommy, what time is it now? I want to take a shower!"
"Aiya … My eyes are so ugly. Mommy, what should I do? Big Brother Yun won't like it! "Xue Meining got off her bed and looked at her dressing table. She was so shocked that her mouth was wide open.
Zhang Manyun let out a deep sigh. It had been an entire day. Other than making a few phone calls, Ning Er didn't get out of bed. She didn't eat or drink anything. Other than crying, she didn't do anything else. Now that Ling Yun might be coming, she was actually so excited.
"Don't worry. With Mommy here, I will make sure Ning Er looks the prettiest tonight!"
Of course, Zhang Manyun knew that Ling Yun wouldn't come. However, since things were already like this, she had to let Ning Er have some hope first. It didn't matter if he went downstairs or not. At the very least, she had to let her precious daughter eat and drink some water. Otherwise, if this continued, Ning Er's body would collapse in a few days!
…
In the living room on the first floor, the huge living room was brightly lit and noisy. Most of the people who came to celebrate Xue Meining's birthday had already left, but there were still four tables full of guests who came to congratulate Xue Meining.
One of the tables was naturally filled with old friends of Miracle Doctor Xue. They took the opportunity to catch up with Miracle Doctor Xue.
The other two tables were occupied by Xue Meining's parents' friends from all over the country. They were all influential people, and they were either rich or respectable. When their children celebrated their birthdays, Xue Chengye and Zhang Manyun went to congratulate them. Now that it was Xue Meining's birthday, it was only natural for them to return the favor.
The last table was filled with young men between the ages of seventeen to twenty-five years old. They were all the hedonistic sons of the various big families in China. Each of them looked heroic and dignified. They sat there proudly, enthusiastically discussing the hottest topics of the day. Perhaps they were flattering each other, but they had a tacit understanding of each other.
Among these young men, the young valley master of Miracle Physician Valley, Hu Shaobai, the hedonistic seventh young master of Beijing's Long Family, Long Tianyu, and the fourth young master of Beijing's Li Family, Li Youmin, were the core of the group. Not only were the three of them handsome, but their families were also incomparably illustrious. Compared to the other hedonistic sons, they were of a higher level.
The nineteen-year-old Long Tianyu smiled and asked, "Big Brother Li, your Li Family is a big family. I wonder what present you brought for Little Sister Ning Er's birthday?"
Li Youmin was fair and clean, and he looked refined. He smiled faintly and said, "Oh, it's not anything good. I can't bring anything out. I only brought a Maybach for Little Sister Ning Er. I'm really embarrassed to say it …"
Apart from Hu Shaobai and Long Tianyu, the other hedonistic sons all took in a deep breath. They thought to themselves that the Li Family lived up to its name. Their family had monopolized China's electricity and coal industry. They really didn't lack money …
Although Li Youmin said that he was embarrassed, his face was filled with an extremely proud smile. He asked Long Tianyu, "Tianyu, your Long Family is known as the number one family in Beijing. I wonder what present you brought for Little Sister Ning Er?"
Although Long Tianyu was young, his words and actions were rather calm. He had the style of a young master of the Long Family. He said leisurely, "Oh, my present is really not presentable compared to Big Brother Li's. It's just a pearl necklace with a nine-carat pink diamond embedded in the middle. I hope Little Sister Ning Er will like it …"
When the other hedonistic sons heard this, they instantly lost interest. They thought to themselves, How much can a pearl necklace cost? It's only a nine-carat diamond, and the Long Family has the nerve to bring it out!
However, Li Youmin was shocked when he heard this. He asked, "A pink diamond? Big Brother Tianyu, it seems like your Long Family has put in a lot of effort to let you celebrate Little Sister Ning Er's birthday! "
A hedonistic son with a screw loose asked blankly, "It's just a nine-carat diamond. What's there to put in so much effort? I only gave her a 15-carat South African diamond … "
Long Tianyu smiled faintly and didn't say anything. Li Youmin smiled and explained, "It's not about the diamond. It's about the color of the diamond. The highest quality pink diamond is worth one million USD per carat … Furthermore, pink diamonds that are more than seven carats are too gorgeous and beautiful. They are rare in the world. Therefore, they can't be calculated according to one million USD per carat …"
That stupid hedonistic son was speechless. What Long Tianyu gave wasn't money at all. It was something rare in the world!
Long Tianyu smiled proudly and turned his gaze to Hu Shaobai. He asked politely, "I wonder what gift did the young valley master of Miracle Physician Valley bring for Little Sister Ning Er?"
Long Tianyu couldn't possibly be impolite. What kind of place was Miracle Physician Valley? As long as the people there were willing, anyone who came out to practice medicine would be a rare miracle doctor. Miracle Doctor Xue's master was the valley master of Miracle Physician Valley. Others might not know, but Long Tianyu definitely knew about this. Therefore, he was very polite to Hu Shaobai.
Hu Shaobai smiled faintly. "Oh, you guys know that our Miracle Physician Valley is a remote and desolate place. I only brought a nine-hundred-year-old ginseng for Little Sister Ning Er this time. When she comes out later, I will personally give it to her."
"It's a pity that this ginseng is still a hundred years away from becoming a thousand-year ginseng. Sigh …"
Hu Shaobai said that it was a pity and had a pained expression on his face. However, everyone could tell that he was just showing off! A nine-hundred-year-old ginseng was already a spirit. Where else could they find one?
Among the three of them, Hu Shaobai was elegant and charming, Long Tianyu was imposing, and Li Youmin was elegant. The three of them sat there and chatted with smiles on their faces. It looked like they were respectful to each other, but in reality, they had already engaged in several secret battles.
Was there a need to say such a big gift? How could this be a birthday celebration? This was simply a betrothal gift!
No matter who it was, if they could win Xue Meining's heart, it would be equivalent to obtaining the support of the entire Xue Family. It could even be said that they had obtained everything from the Xue Family!
Why? Because Miracle Doctor Xue only had one granddaughter, and Xue Chengye only had one daughter.
Actually, all the young men sitting at this table had a tacit understanding in their hearts. However, when they saw the gifts from the three of them, they instantly became listless. Whether it was in terms of status, family power, or wealth, they weren't on the same level. They could forget about competing for Xue Meining because they weren't even on the same level.
"However, we have been here for so long. Why isn't our birthday girl out yet? Even if she's dressed up meticulously, she shouldn't take that long, right? It's already eight o 'clock, time to start the banquet … "
"That's right, if Sister Ning Er isn't coming down, how are we going to give her a gift in person …"
Li Youmin smiled faintly and said to everyone, "Did you guys notice that the seat between Big Brother Hu and Brother Long seems to be empty? I'm guessing that there's someone else who hasn't arrived yet …"
Everyone took a look and realized that it was indeed the case. The best seat at their table was indeed intentionally left empty, and they didn't know who it was reserved for …
All the nouveau riches were momentarily stunned as they started discussing and guessing which nouveau riche this seat was reserved for.
There was another person who had been staring at this seat. Naturally, it was Miracle Doctor Xue. He was getting more and more anxious as he thought to himself. It was already eight o 'clock. If Ling Yun didn't arrive by eight-thirty, the banquet would have to start, and he really couldn't wait any longer!
Miracle Doctor Xue was an expert in Traditional Chinese Medicine, and his physiognomy was no small matter. He could tell that Ling Yun wasn't the kind of person who would die young. Furthermore, based on Ling Yun's strength, as long as he wasn't up against a Xiantian Realm master, Ling Yun wouldn't have a problem escaping.
At the very least, he had already given Ling Yun his phone number. If Ling Yun was really in danger, he would definitely contact him. Moreover, there was a Xiantian Realm master protecting Ling Yun in the dark!
It was impossible that something had happened to Ling Yun, but where was he hiding? Ling Yun hadn't appeared in the past six days despite all the major events that had happened. Would he appear on Ning Er's birthday today?
Sigh … I can only wait until eight-thirty. If Ling Yun still doesn't appear, regardless of whether Ning Er comes down or not, we can only start the banquet …
Miracle Doctor Xue sighed faintly. He didn't care about the others, but there was a table filled with his old friends and brothers. They were all waiting for him to go over and reminisce after sending off the guests.
"Uncle Xue, when is Sister Ning Er coming down? We are waiting to give her a birthday present … "
"Yes, Uncle Xue, Sister Ning Er's birthday is today. How can we celebrate her birthday if she doesn't show up?"
…
The nouveau riche table was filled with youthful vigor after all. They couldn't wait to show off and had already begun to make a fuss.
Xue Meining's father, Xue Chengye, hurried over to ask his father.
"Sigh, it's not like you haven't seen Ning Er's situation. Go up and see if you can get her to come down …"
Miracle Doctor Xue said to Xue Chengye through telepathy.
Xue Chengye could only go upstairs with a heavy heart to get Ning Er. After a long while, everyone heard Xue Meining shouting angrily, "Daddy, I won't come down unless Big Brother Yun is here. If Big Brother Yun isn't here, I won't come down no matter what you say!"
Everyone downstairs was holding their breaths as they waited for Xue Meining's family to come down from upstairs. Hence, the entire living room was silent for a moment. Now that they suddenly heard this sentence, they started guessing who this Brother Yun that Xue Meining was talking about was. Why was he so important?
At this moment, a clear voice that sounded like a dragon's roar came from the courtyard. "Ning Er, who said your Big Brother Yun isn't coming? Today is your birthday, how can you be so rude? You really deserve a spanking! "
The voice wasn't loud, but Ling Yun deliberately used the Mystical Dragon Howl. Everyone in Miracle Doctor Xue's villa heard it clearly! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for me at Qidian (). Your support is my greatest motivation.) (To be continued.)
