Chapter 1354: Chapter 1224: Feeling a Bit Sorry for Second Uncle
During dinner, Song Yansheng and Shi Nuan went downstairs and didn’t see Ye Mingmei. Song Yansheng asked Aunt Hui to go upstairs and call her, and five minutes later, Aunt Hui came down looking worried.
Aunt Hui said, "Sir, Miss Mingmei said she won’t come down for dinner tonight!"
Not coming down for dinner means she’s planning to have snacks as her meal. How can this be?
Shi Nuan said, "Tell her that tonight we made her favorite braised pork!"
"I told her, but Miss Mingmei said to keep the braised pork for her and she’ll make it her midnight snack later..."
Song Yansheng furrowed his brow, stood up, and said, "I’ll go and take a look..."
"Hey, wait..." Shi Nuan quickly grabbed Song Yansheng and said, "Let me go instead; Second Uncle is waiting for me downstairs!"
If Song Yansheng goes, he will inevitably scold Ye Mingmei. Besides, Ye Mingmei usually loves to eat, so if she’s not really full from snacks, why wouldn’t she want her favorite braised pork?
Song Yansheng sighed and said, "Don’t spoil her too much; make sure you get her to come down!"
Shi Nuan nodded, "Don’t worry, I will!"
Shi Nuan went upstairs, while Song Yansheng waited for them in the living room, drinking tea.
Aunt Hui hesitated, pursed her lips, and still voiced her concern, "Sir, Miss Qingyang’s wedding is in three days. Are you and Lady planning to prepare a gift for Miss Qingyang?"
Song Yansheng was taken aback, "It’s in three days? So soon..."
Aunt Hui replied, "Yes, Miss Qingyang’s wedding is the day before your birthday, October 13th, which is indeed three days away?"
Song Yansheng squinted and, after a while, said, "I see, I’ll prepare something..."
After all, she is his niece, so Song Yansheng naturally wouldn’t neglect her.
"By the way..." Song Yansheng asked again, "Have we received any calls from the old mansion? Has the old lady prepared a gift?"
Aunt Hui hurriedly said, "The old lady called yesterday afternoon. Actually, she was worried you would forget, so she asked me to remind you. The old lady also said that now that you’ve started your own family, the gift for Miss Qingyang’s wedding should be from both you and Lady. The old lady has already prepared a gift herself, representing her and Mr. Old Gu..."
Song Yansheng nodded, "The old lady is thoughtful. Call her back later to ease her mind!"
Aunt Hui agreed.
Upstairs, Shi Nuan went to Ye Mingmei’s room and found Ye Mingmei playing games while snacking.
Looking at her, it was clear she was more engrossed in the game than the snacks!
Shi Nuan asked, "Mingmei, what are you playing?"
"PUBG!" Ye Mingmei said, "This game is so popular recently, but I’ve been grounded by Boss Gu and didn’t have time to play, so I forgot about it. Sister Ziyan asked me to play together earlier, so I’m teaming up with her now... Hey, Sister Ziyan, where are you? I’m almost out of bullets..."
Ye Mingmei had headphones on, so Shi Nuan couldn’t hear what Jiang Ziyuan was saying on the other side, but there were indeed two animated characters running around houses on the screen. No idea what they were doing!
Ye Mingmei smiled and said to Shi Nuan, "Little sister-in-law, Sister Ziyan asked me to say hi to you!"
Shi Nuan responded with a "Hm," and said, "Say hi to your Sister Ziyan for me too!"
Ye Mingmei said, "No need for me to pass the message, little sister-in-law, wait a moment!"
Then she took off her headphones and switched on the external speaker, and soon Jiang Ziyuan’s voice was heard from the computer: "Hey, silly girl, what are you doing instead of covering me? I got shot!"
Ye Mingmei immediately said, "Sister Ziyan, don’t worry, I’ll kill the opponent and come to save you..."
Saying this, Ye Mingmei skillfully operated the keyboard and took a shot at the opponent, who instantly fell.
Then she quickly went to Jiang Ziyuan’s side to heal her.
Shi Nuan didn’t play games, so she couldn’t tell how this game was fun, and said, "Mingmei, it’s time for dinner!"
Ye Mingmei said, "Little sister-in-law, you go down to eat first. I’m not hungry, and I’m playing games with Sister Ziyan. I can’t let my teammate down!"
Jiang Ziyuan promptly said, "Silly girl, as I’ve told you, playing games is fine, but don’t delay meals and sleep. I’m not playing anymore; you should go downstairs with Nuannuan to eat!"
With that, Jiang Ziyuan’s character on the screen indeed stopped moving, and Ye Mingmei blinked, calling out, "Sister Ziyan, did you... did you leave?"
The microphone transmitted Jiang Ziyuan’s voice, "I’m not playing anymore, going to eat. We’ll continue after we’re full!"
Ye Mingmei immediately shouted, "Hey, Sister Ziyan, don’t leave! We just need to kill three more groups and we’ll win. Sister Ziyan, come back, Sister Ziyan..."
