"Cousin Yu,Dai and Zhi, welcome. Please you can get some food first before you go freshen up " Jie Min proposed.
"We'll go freshen up first" The Ding siblings replied.
" Mom I'm sure you saw just now,we were very enthusiastic towards our relatives" Min said to her mother. " When did you do a video call?" Xing asked. " When I heard the car engine " Min replied calmly. "Yes I saw how enthusiastic you all were,I and your dad will round up here and meet you girls in time for lunch" Mrs Jie said and hung up the call.
The Ding siblings came down with their mother while making a video call with their father while the Jie siblings continued what they were doing.
Yijun stood up and went to Yali " Yali we didn't finish the game" Yijun said. "Oh let's bet on some money.3,000 yuan" Yali said. "Okay, six rounds " Yijun replied. "Let's go" Jiañ and her siblings also followed.
"It's a tie " Jiañ the refree said. " Uh-huh, good game" Yijun said. " Good game" Yali replied and the car engine sounded. They used the elevator coming down from the second floor. The scene that met them was the Jiang sisters hugging each other dearly. "Ahh Weilan it's been long" Jie Meiling said. " Meiling you've become more beautiful as the years go by " Ding Weilan complemented. " No it's you " Meiling argued. " Don't be silly it's you " Weilan said. " It's you " Jie Meiling said and they burst out laughing.
"Pls tell me aren't going to be so back and forth in the future" Yali whispered inyo Min's ear. "Ahem,ahem" Yue coughed innocently. Jie Meiling glared at her. Yue smiled and they all chorused " Welcome mom, welcome dad" and sat down on the sofa. Jie Feng replied with a light " hmm". Meiling and Weilan went to another sofa and sat down about to start gisting when Yali interrupted" Mom,dad we were waiting for the two of you,so can we start eating lunch?" Yali asked. " I'm sure they're aware,why the long talk, they don't look hungry let's go " Min said. " Why are you in such a hurry?" Jie Meiling asked.
" It seems you've forgotten so soon,Mrs Jie you said ' we'll toung up here and meet you girls in time for lunch'. Yin quoted.
"No need for reminders,I remember" Jiang Meiling said and walked towards the dinning room while everyone followed.
Jie Feng sat at the heas of the table with Jiang Meiling at his right and Jiañ opposite her mother.
Ding Weilan beside her sister and opposite Yue.
Xing beside her aunt and Yijun opposite her.
Min beside her sister and opposite Yin.
Yali beside her sister and Ding Yu opposite her.
Ding Dai beside her cousin and Ding Zhi opposite her.
The table had a total of 13 persons, 3 males and 10 females.
"Older Cousin Xing,I heard you've now moved from 5th to 3rd richest person in the world, what an achievement " Ding Yu tried to strike up a conversation. Xing continued eating as if she hadn't heard anything. Ding Yu who knew it would be easy to talk to Jie Xing didn't stop there. " Elder Xing can I have the privilege of learning from you?" Ding Yu gathered the courage to say.
Xing raised her eye,looking towards her father for permission to talk as the rule at Jie Villa was no talking while eating. Making an exception,Jie Feng nodded.Xing took a napkin and wiped her mouth then looked towards Ding Yu and said.
"Oh what would young master Ding like to learn from me" . Ding Yu was nervous but answered confidently " Business skills". " Well if it's about that I'm sure young master Ding's father is into businesssl,he could teach you" she paused and continued " why don't you go ask him?do you have some issues with him ?is that why you don't want to ask him?.Ah,it all starts from home, take care of your home problems before coming to me " Xing said behaving like they weren't talking about business a moment ago but advice on how to get Mr Ding to forgive Ding Yu.
" No,no,nothing like that happened,I just want to learn from you,your skills are top notch that's all" Ding Yu replied flustered. " Then how do you classify your father's skills?" Xing asked in a gossipy manner. " Mediocre" Ding Yu said. "Young master Ding are you saying my skills are better than your father's, isn't he older?" Xing continued. "Age does not matter in talent" Ding Yu replied. " In that case you want me to teach you some skill right?" Ding Yu nodded.
"I think you're still too inexperienced".
