Chapter 131 The domineering Ningning, a distinguished guest has arrived!
As soon as Jiang Ning said this...
The entire venue fell silent.
Who, who said Jiang Ning can't speak French?
That's called not being able to speak French!
Her French was not only very fluent, but her accent was also very standard, a very authentic French accent, which was even better than that of a broadcaster.
Shi Nanyue and Tang An were stunned.
Jiang Ning can speak French!
Isn't Jiang Ning just a country girl with no special skills?
She can't even speak English well, so how did she learn to speak French?
Tang An's face was very pale.
She originally intended to outdo Jiang Ning.
But now.
Not only did they fail to outdo Jiang Ning, but they also failed to surpass him.
Instead, Jiang Ning stole the spotlight.
Damn!
Damn it!
Tang An's eyes were practically spitting fire.
Mrs. Andy's eyes widened in disbelief as she asked, "Miss Shi, you... you speak French?"
"Yes." Jiang Ning nodded slightly.
Mrs. Andy continued, "Then what did they say about you not being able to?"
These are them.
This naturally refers to Shi Nanyue and Tang An.
Shi Nanyue reacted immediately and said with a smile, "Shengbao, look at you, child. If you know French, why are you hiding it? Your aunt thought you didn't know French! Look, this is such a misunderstanding."
Shi Nanyue had seen a lot of the world.
With a single, casual remark, all the blame was shifted onto Jiang Ning, implying that Jiang Ning was scheming and had deliberately caused things to turn out this way.
If it were anyone else, hearing Shi Nanyue's words would definitely throw them into a panic.
But the person standing in front of Shi Nanyue was Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning smiled faintly, her dimples appearing at the corners of her mouth. "I thought my aunt had sent my cousin An'an to greet Mr. Slime and Mrs. Andy without even asking if I knew French, just to make fun of me! It seems I misunderstood."
Jiang Ning's voice was somewhat calm, yet firm and resolute.
Today, Jiang Ning speaks French.
What if Jiang Ning doesn't speak French?
If Jiang Ning didn't know French, not only would Shi Nanyue and Tang An laugh at her, but everyone in the banquet hall would also laugh at her.
A single, seemingly insignificant remark instantly turned the tide of the battle!
The way everyone in the banquet hall looked at Shi Nanyue and Tang An changed instantly.
Oh.
It turns out that the mother and daughter deliberately wanted to embarrass Jiang Ning at the family reunion banquet.
"Why is Nan Yue acting like this? Miss Shi is, after all, her own niece."
"It's simple. Before Miss Shi came back, her daughter Tang An was the only heir of the Shi family. Now that Miss Shi is back, Shi Nanyue feels threatened!"
"At this moment, Miss truly lives up to her reputation as the daughter of Hong Kong's most beautiful woman and Beijing's most talented man. Not only is she beautiful, but she is also incredibly intelligent. Although she was born in the countryside, she has not displayed a trace of vulgarity!"
then.
Shi Nanxing was the top scorer in the college entrance examination in Beijing.
Therefore, he was known as the greatest talent.
Si Huashang participated in the Miss World pageant and won the Asian title, which earned her the title of "Number One Beauty".
However, in the blink of an eye, the discussion among the crowd changed.
Hearing the murmurs of the crowd, Shi Nanyue almost lost her footing. Her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly. What impressive verbal skills! She had underestimated this little village girl!
Tang An was so angry that he vomited blood.
A village girl spoke French better than her.
This is incredible.
She started learning French when she was eight years old!
Shi Nanyue's smile remained unchanged, her tone gentle as ever, still the image of a kind aunt, "Shengbao, I truly underestimated you, and I apologize. I originally intended for An'an to help you, but I never expected our Shengbao to be so capable!"
"Thank you for your praise, Aunt. I will definitely live up to your expectations and do my best to inherit the Shi family business and develop the Shi Group even better in the future."
Shi Nanyue is now suffering in silence!
That damned country bumpkin.
wait.
The banquet has only just begun.
Jiang Ning's embarrassment was yet to come.
Mr. Slime looked at Jiang Ning and asked curiously, "Miss Shi, your French is so good, almost on par with the locals. Is it because you've lived in France?"
"I've never been to France, but I really like it there."
"Never been to France?" Mr. Slime was even more surprised. "Miss Shi, did I hear that right? You've never been to France, yet you speak French so well?"
"Yes, you heard me right. I taught myself by watching TV and buying books."
Mr. Slime's eyes were full of admiration. "You truly are a descendant of the Shi family!"
"Thank you, you flatter me." Even after receiving praise from Mr. Slime, Jiang Ning remained humble and unassuming.
Standing in the bustling banquet hall, I felt like a solitary bamboo stalk, isolated from the world.
Si Huafeng and Chu Mengli stood there.
Originally, they were going to stand up for their niece!
did not expect.
My niece doesn't need anyone to support her at all.
Si Huafeng's eyes were full of satisfaction. "Shengbao is truly amazing! She has such spirit! No wonder she's a member of the Si family! She has the demeanor of a member of the Si family!"
As the uncle, Si Huafeng was genuinely happy.
Chu Mengli smiled and said, "Shengbao's father is Shi Nanxing and her mother is Si Huashang. With such a tiger father and mother, it's natural that they wouldn't have a dog daughter!"
A tiger's cub is a tiger too!
Si Huafeng nodded, "Mengli, you're right, our Shengbao is a little tiger."
A cute little tiger.
Chu Mengli continued, "Nan Yue's behavior at this moment was really unsightly. She is our Sheng Bao's own aunt. When others bullied Sheng Bao, she actually joined in and bullied Sheng Bao too! Fortunately, our Sheng Bao is not a pushover!"
She saw it all clearly just now.
Shi Nanyue not only failed to gain any advantage, but also suffered a great loss at Jiang Ning's hands.
Mentioning Shi Nanyue, Si Huafeng's expression also turned somewhat ugly. "She's just a married-out woman. No matter how far she stretches her influence, she can't cause any trouble. Besides, Sheng Bao still has us. If she dares to bully Sheng Bao, I'll be the first to not let her off!"
No matter what, the Si family is always behind Jiang Ning!
They're all there!
They are Jiang Ning's source of confidence.
ten minutes later.
As soon as Madam Shi stepped into the banquet hall, Mrs. Andy went over to her and said, "Fang, your granddaughter Shi Sheng is amazing! She has the same spirit as you when you were young. My slime and I both like her very much."
Mrs. Andy never hid her affection for Jiang Ning, and she always spoke highly of her. Most importantly, their affection for each other was genuine.
Westerners are straightforward.
I like what I like, and I don't like what I don't like; I'm never afraid of offending anyone.
The old lady was very surprised. Both Slime and Andy had extremely high standards, and it would be very difficult for us to obtain them.
She didn't expect it.
I was only gone for a short while, and my granddaughter had already won over Mr. Slime and Mrs. Andy.
After talking with Mrs. Andy for a while, Madam Shi continued to greet guests at the door.
Madam Shi walked directly to Jiang Ning's side and said with a smile, "Shengbao, Mrs. Andy just praised you! My Shengbao is amazing, she actually managed to get Mr. Slime and Mrs. Andy to praise you so highly."
Tang An stood to the side.
Upon hearing this, Tang An's face contorted with jealousy.
The old lady couldn't even see her standing here, but as soon as she arrived, she called out to Jiang Ning.
It's ridiculous.
It's likely that the old lady has forgotten that she was also her own granddaughter.
Just then, the assistant butler walked in from outside. "Miss Sun, there is someone outside who claims to be your friend looking for you!"
Hear this.
Jiang Ning was somewhat puzzled.
friend?
Who!
She didn't have many friends in City A, and Yue Qianlan couldn't come because of family matters, so she didn't send Yue Qianlan an invitation.
But besides Yue Qianlan, who else could it be?
Tang An narrowed his eyes. Jiang Ning's friend?
What good friends can a country girl like Jiang Ning make?
She must be a country girl like her.
She's probably still the kind of country bumpkin.
As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together.
It's obvious without even thinking that Jiang Ning's country girl friend wouldn't even be able to offer a decent gift; she'd only embarrass herself!
Thinking of this, Tang An quickly said, "Uncle Wang, since he is Sheng Bao's friend, he is a distinguished guest of our Shi family. Why don't you go and invite him in!"
