Second pregnancy, sixth child: The beloved mom's disguise has been exposed again.

Chapter 104 The Ning Family is About to Rise to Prominence

The Ning family of the imperial city.

Ning Man linked arms with her mother, Feng Meiyi, and the two leaned against each other, laughing as they discussed her engagement to Shen Haoxuan.

Feng Meiyi was naturally happy that her daughter could marry the young master of the Shen family and become the rightful young mistress of the Shen family.

If my daughter becomes a wealthy woman in the future, she won't have to worry about the attitudes of those rich women when she goes out to play cards. They might even have to fawn over her.

Just imagining that scene made Feng Meiyi feel triumphant, and she could stand up straight.

Ning Fengtai sat on the opposite side of the sofa, his posture relaxed. Although he looked serious, there was a hint of smugness in his eyes.

After Ningman married him, he, as her father, received a considerable investment, which gave the company time to manage its finances. He could also use this money to buy back all the shares that had already been sold on the market.

With the help of Mr. Bruce from Country Y, the company may be able to successfully list on Wall Street in Country Y. At that time, his status will rise several levels, and in the future, who in the capital city will dare not look down on him?

"Brother Haoxuan chose to hold his engagement banquet at the Imperial City International Hotel this time, it must have cost quite a bit." Ning Man said, a shy smile appearing on her face, her fingers gently twisting the hem of her dress, her inner sweetness almost overflowing.

Such a high-class hotel, her classmates and friends would be so envious of her. At that time, Ningman would be the most beautiful bride in the capital. She could arrange for a few reporters to take center stage and let them take some nice photos. Wouldn't that be a piece of cake to make headlines?

"Look at your pathetic self." Ning Fengtai stared at the financial newspaper in his hand, not even glancing at Ning Man, and gave her a dismissive reprimand.

Feng Meiyi glanced at her husband, then turned her gaze back to her daughter.

"Yes, Haoxuan dotes on you the most, but you must remember that after you marry into the Shen family, you must hold onto your position as the young mistress and help your own family more, understand?" Feng Meiyi placed her hand on Ning Man's hand and earnestly instructed her.

Her daughter was lovable and married a wonderful man, so naturally she, as a mother, was overjoyed.

Even if a daughter gets married, she can't truly become a member of the Shen family; she still has to make plans for her maternal family.

"Yes, I will hold onto Haoxuan's heart and never let him have the energy to mess around outside..." Ning Man said this in Feng Meiyi's ear, and after she finished speaking, a smug look appeared on her face.

Men, once they've had enough to eat at home, won't have the energy to mess around outside. Even if they're willing, they don't have the strength.

Ning Man suddenly remembered that at the previous auction, Shen Haoxuan stared at the woman who shared the same name as her stepsister, and a feeling of unease arose in her heart.

She checked the woman's background and found that she was indeed just someone with the same name and had absolutely no relation to her shameless stepsister.

However, I heard that this woman recently moved into Wen Tingye's house. It's probably because Wen Tingye has some feelings for her. Otherwise, why would he bring her home to live? This is probably the kind of treatment only a real girlfriend gets.

Thinking of this, Ning Man was extremely unhappy. Why could Wen Tingye take a liking to a woman like that?

Since Wen Tingye has taken a liking to her, why does she still have to seduce her brother Haoxuan?

She's a public bus who sleeps with anyone, just like her stepsister!

Ning Man had clearly forgotten that Shen Haoxuan was originally Ning Yao's fiancé, her future brother-in-law, and had even forgotten how she had shamelessly taken advantage of being drunk to strip naked and climb into her future brother-in-law's bed.

"Mom, do you think my sister might still be alive? When they found her body, it was so decomposed that you couldn't even recognize her face. Only the DNA matched. Can DNA be faked?" Ning Man asked her mother, frowning.

"Why do you ask that?" Feng Meiyi looked at her daughter, somewhat puzzled.

"A while ago, Haoxuan and I met a woman at an auction. She was also named Ning Yao. She didn't look like my sister, but she deliberately flirted with Haoxuan. She had no good intentions!"

"Could it be that my sister didn't die, but changed her face and is deliberately trying to steal my brother Haoxuan from me?" Ning Man offered her guess.

"Don't talk nonsense, it's really scary. She's already dead, how could she still be alive in this world?" Feng Meiyi shuddered as she recalled the gruesome and disgusting appearance of Ning Yao's corpse, and goosebumps instantly rose on her arms.

"This kind of unfilial daughter is useless alive, it's better for her to die!" Ning Fengtai frowned. Mentioning Ning Yao, his anger flared up instantly. He felt extremely disgusted when he thought of his own daughter who wouldn't even hand over a piece of White Flame Blood Jade.

Did she treat him as her father? Did she ever think about doing something for her father?

Ning Yao and her mother are both selfish and self-serving. They've been eating and drinking his food all these years, yet they still treat him like an outsider!

"Even if she's still alive, if she dares to come back and appear in front of me, I'll break both her legs!" Ning Fengtai became angrier the more he thought about it, wishing he had never given birth to Ning Yao.

"Alright, alright, it's not worth getting yourself upset. She's just a woman with the same name, don't take it to heart. The most important thing right now is to properly arrange our daughter and Haoxuan's wedding." Feng Meiyi persuaded her husband, instructing the servants to pour Ning Fengtai a cup of hot tea, which she then handed to her husband herself, her tone gentle and soothing.

"You're already dead, so stop thinking about it. I've been sending people to find what you wanted, and I'll let you know as soon as I have any news."

Ning Fengtai's expression softened, and after taking a sip of tea, he looked at Ning Man.

“Manman, you have to make your family proud. Don’t be like your unfilial sister. Your family will always be your support in the future. Only when your family is doing well can you maintain your position in your husband’s family.”

"Dad, I know. Even if I marry into the Shen family, I will always be your daughter. As long as I am in the Shen family, our Ning family will benefit. I will ask Brother Haoxuan to help our company develop." Ning Man made a solemn promise.

Upon hearing this, Ning Fengtai nodded in satisfaction, and his attitude towards Feng Meiyi softened considerably.

Ultimately, Ning Man, this good daughter, was born to Feng Meiyi. Ning Man has him in her heart as her father and knows how to respect him. She is so much better than Ning Yao, that disobedient daughter.

However, Ning Fengtai was still somewhat uncomfortable. Both women had given him daughters. The Ning family had no male heir to inherit the family business. No matter how well the company was doing, there was no one to carry on the family business.

Such a thought only flashed through his mind, and Ning Fengtai quickly composed himself and joined in his wife and daughter's conversation.

The family began discussing the engagement dinner, putting their unhappiness behind them.
