Chapter 195 Two pairs of best friends get together, and the hot pot party is about to begin.
Bai Mengran had already vaguely guessed the identity of this middle-aged beauty.
Although Kong Nishang's features were not as fully developed as the woman in front of her, one could still catch a resemblance in her expression.
Kong Nishang was overjoyed to see Bai Mengran and immediately left her mother behind, running over to her.
"Ah, Sister Bai, what a coincidence! This is my mother. I brought her here to [Fairyland] to enjoy some delicious food!"
After learning his identity, Bai Mengran's guess was confirmed.
She observed Kong Nishang and thought her face was the kind that grew on you; although she wasn't a stunning beauty at first glance, she seemed well-behaved and charming.
Therefore, since the beautiful woman in front of us is Yi Yi's mother, Kong Ni Chang must also be a beauty when she grows up a bit more.
The thought flashed through her mind, and Bai Mengran immediately went forward to greet her warmly.
Because she was carrying something and it was inconvenient to perform a proper bow, she smiled and nodded to Madam Pan as a greeting:
"I was unaware of Madam Kong's arrival; I have failed to greet you properly. May I ask what delicacies you two would like to enjoy today?"
As soon as Pan stepped into this place, he noticed Bai Mengran. To be precise, he was attracted by her trendy, exquisite and beautiful clothes!
She had an irresistible love for beautiful clothes, and in her youth she was obsessed with them, visiting fabric shops and clothing stores every day, having no resistance to those beautiful clothes.
Therefore, she wore a different outfit almost every day.
Even the name of her daughter, Kong Nishang, was chosen by Madam Pan out of her love for beautiful clothes.
The nickname "Yiyi" is derived from the character "Yi" in her daughter's name, and also signifies her love for beautiful clothes.
So when Madam Pan first saw Bai Mengran, she hardly noticed Bai Mengran's beauty; her mind and eyes were filled with the beautiful clothes Bai Mengran was wearing!
Although Bai Mengran changed into a silver-black long dress, the material was pearlescent glass gauze, which was light and thin, and was decorated with silver-white glitter, so the whole dress did not appear dull or heavy due to its dark color.
On the contrary, it made Bai Mengran's skin look even whiter, which perfectly complemented her complexion and health, while also giving her a touch of the dashing beauty of a woman.
In short, this dress captivated Pan's heart at first glance, leaving her deeply enthralled and unable to extricate herself.
Reminded by her daughter, Madam Pan suddenly came to her senses and realized that she had neglected etiquette because she was too focused on her clothes, and she couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
Madam Pan quickly composed herself and greeted them with a smile, "I really didn't expect to meet Miss Bai as soon as I arrived. I'm so sorry!"
I've heard that my daughter has been visiting you every day, praising this place to me each time. I've also long wanted to see for myself the "fairyland" that's now famous throughout Peach Blossom Town.
Pan wore a polite smile, clearly having forgotten the question Bai Mengran had just raised about what to eat.
Kong Nishang noticed that her mother seemed a little absent-minded, so she quickly covered for her mother by saying, "Mother said she wanted to try some foods that are not easy to bring back on ordinary days, so I recommended barbecue to her."
Although I already ate lunch, I can still have another meal with my mother!
Bai Mengran noticed that Madam Kong had been staring intently at her clothes, and considering her elegant and appropriate attire, she vaguely guessed the reason for Madam Kong's distraction.
Just then, Bai Mengran remembered that she had just completed a task today and obtained a clothing shop. Perhaps she could invite Madam Kong to come and support her when the shop opened tomorrow.
Bai Mengran made a note of this for the time being, and seeing that Madam Kong did not have a specific idea about dinner, she extended an invitation:
"If Madam Kong doesn't mind, how about I invite you and Yiyi to have hot pot with me?"
Today I'm planning to sample a unique and delicious dish, and I've invited the Su family—mother and her two children—to join me.
Upon hearing this, Kong Nishang mentally clapped her hands like a seal, thinking, "Great! I've managed to catch up again!"
She always felt that the Fairy Realm was lucky for her. Ever since she secretly took her father's jade pendant to exchange for money, her luck here had been off the charts, more so than she had in her entire life combined...
She quickly turned to her mother for her opinion: "Mom, shall we go eat with Sister Bai and Yingying too?"
Although Pan was very tempted, she was somewhat conflicted because it seemed impolite to go and freeload a meal on her first meeting with Bai Mengran.
Just then, Madam Su and the others walked over.
"Yuan Shuang? What are you doing here?" Madam Su had just come out of the shop when she saw her former best friend, Madam Pan, and quickly came to greet her. "It's been so long since I've seen you!"
Pan was overjoyed to see her best friend and happily took Madam Su's hand, "Qianrou, I never expected to see you here again! Did your Yingying bring you here to broaden your horizons?"
As she spoke, Ms. Pan couldn't help but joke with her friend.
“Yes, yes, Yingying talks about this place every day at home. Now I’m finally able to see it for myself. This place is truly amazing!” Mrs. Su replied.
Only then did she notice Bai Mengran standing quietly to the side, and asked curiously, "Ranran, what are you doing here? Do you know this Madam Kong too?"
Bai Mengran thought to herself, what a coincidence! She hadn't expected that her friend's mother was also a friend.
Seeing that Madam Kong and Madam Su had a close relationship, she asked Madam Su to speak on her behalf and mentioned that she wanted to invite Madam Kong to have hot pot together.
Madam Kong glanced at Madam Su, still feeling a little embarrassed to have someone treat her to a meal, but Madam Su saw right through her thoughts.
"Alright, Yuanshuang, stop pretending! We're all family here, just say if you want some."
Do you think I don't know you? You definitely want to eat it, why are you pretending?
I've heard that Ranran gets along well with Yingying and Yiyi. Since she's invited you to eat there, you should just accept. You can always invite Ranran over to your house later too!
Pan, having been exposed by her best friend, simply stopped pretending. Besides, Madam Su was right; next time, she would have Yi Yi reciprocate by inviting Miss Bai back.
She smiled and said to Bai Mengran, "Then thank you very much for your hospitality, Miss Bai. When you have time, please come back to the manor with Yiyi. Your aunt will definitely treat you well then!"
Bai Mengran thought to herself that it really took her best friend's intervention; she was so direct.
She asked the group to find a place to sit nearby, and that she would invite them over after she had finished setting up the hot pot feast.
The others naturally had no objections, and the two pairs of best friends happily went off to chat hand in hand, leaving Su Zi alone, as if she felt isolated.
However, he was already used to it. He thought that he was also benefiting from his little sister's kindness and would be able to taste that dish called hot pot later.
An indescribable excitement welled up in Su Zirang's heart, filling him with boundless anticipation for the culinary feast he was about to explore...
