Chapter 204 When Do You Plan to Hold the Wedding?

Song Ni had not seen Tang Tang for over half a year. Tang Tang and Song Jing were childhood sweethearts, genuinely soft-natured and pure. She was the easiest to deceive in the entire family. Yet, such a person could stay abroad to pursue further studies for her career, leaving home for so long and leaving her brother to his own devices. For this alone, Song Ni was very fond of her. Soft on the outside, but resilient on the inside. The moment Tang Tang saw Song Ni, her face flushed. Song Ni opened her arms, acting more like an elder, and Tang Tang immediately threw herself into Song Ni's embrace. "Nini." Just the utterance of her name made her voice tremble. Song Ni asked with a smile, "If my brother were here, wouldn't you be crying your eyes out?" Tang Tang loosened her grip slightly. She wasn't as tall as Song Ni and had to look up at her. As she looked, her eyes reddened further. "Why have you lost weight?" Song Ni: ... She shouldn't have started teasing. How could she forget that her sister-in-law was a crybaby? "No, no, no..." Song Ni dreaded Tang Tang crying. Without Song Jing, there was no way to console her. It had been like this since they were children. She was the younger sister, but every time Tang Tang cried, Song Ni had to act like an older sister to coax her into stopping. Coaxing didn't help. Tang Tang only listened to Song Jing; no one else mattered. "If you cry now, I won't be able to call my brother." Tang Tang raised her hand to wipe her eyes, trying to suppress her tears. Song Ni sighed. "Didn't I tell you? I was filming two months ago." Although Tang Tang was abroad, she kept up with Song Ni, including her trending on hot searches and her falling from the wire. Thinking of this, Tang Tang reached out and felt Song Ni's body. "Your injuries..." Song Ni felt ticklish from her touch and quickly grabbed Tang Tang's hand. "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, my dear sister-in-law, that was a staged fall." Tang Tang blinked. "Staged fall." Song Ni then briefly explained what happened with Bai Xiyuan. Tang Tang listened, her small face scrunched up in a frown. "This woman is too wicked." "It's fine. Your sister is also quite ruthless. She can't make a living in the entertainment industry anymore." Tang Tang, however, furrowed her brows. "How are you ruthless? It's clearly that woman's fault. She got what she deserved. You did the right thing. Should our Song family just endure bullying?" Song Ni was somewhat surprised. Her little crybaby sister-in-law was actually so spirited. And quite biased, wasn't she? But it was true, Bai Xiyuan deserved her fate. "By the way, I haven't asked you about your husband during this time?" As she spoke, Tang Tang frowned and leaned closer to Song Ni, whispering. "I heard he's not someone easy to deal with, and he's quite arrogant." She looked like she was afraid of being overheard. Song Ni asked with a smile, "Haven't you seen my social media posts? I've shown so much affection." Tang Tang blinked her eyes. "Ah, so it's true?" Song Ni: ... "Is there any pretense?" Tang Tang didn't say more, but Song Ni understood her implication from her silence. Was Song Ni someone who would fake things just to avoid gossip and being looked down upon? Tang Tang tugged at Song Ni's sleeve. "Mainly, I've always heard that the Tan family's son is quite difficult to handle, with a bad temper and an arrogant demeanor." Song Ni blinked. "Sister-in-law, I'm also arrogant." Tang Tang frowned. "No, you're so well-behaved and cute." Song Ni's shoulders shook with laughter. Her sister-in-law was truly gullible. After all these years, she still believed she was a well-behaved girl. ... When Tang Tang learned of Song Ni's intention to pursue further studies, she wholeheartedly agreed. "Master Bartley is truly amazing. I thought it would be good to be his student before, but you didn't seem to want to then, so I didn't persuade you." Song Ni pursed her lips. "Was I foolish back then?" Tang Tang shook her head. "Whatever Nini does, she has her reasons. Your happiness is most important." Song Ni loved her sister-in-law's unreserved favoritism, which was why Song Jing doted on Tang Tang so much, and she still felt it wasn't enough. "But you must discuss this properly with your husband. Although I didn't work much back then,..." As she spoke, Tang Tang's expression became wistful. Song Ni smiled and teased her. "Are you missing my brother?" Tang Tang nodded. "Are you staying in the country after this trip?" Tang Tang nodded again. "My brother is getting old. Sister-in-law, will you give me a little nephew or niece to play with soon?" Tang Tang: ... Her face flushed, and she shot Song Ni a playful glare. "You should first think about how to coax your husband." Speaking of which, Song Ni sighed. She had chatted with Bartley yesterday. According to him, it would be best to enroll right after the Chinese New Year, around spring. It was supposed to be a two-year program, but Song Ni felt that was too long and compressed it to one year. However, one year was indeed quite long. How was she going to coax Tan Zheng? Let alone coaxing Tan Zheng, she herself could barely convince herself. "We'll see about that then." After a brief rest at the hotel, the two prepared to head to the fashion show. Tang Tang was a jewelry designer and had brought Song Ni a necklace she designed herself. "This is your birthday gift." Song Ni liked it the moment she saw it and immediately asked Tang Tang to help her put it on. "Sister-in-law, where's my wedding gift?" "No rush. I'll give it to you when you have your wedding. I'm still preparing it." Hearing this, Song Ni's expression froze for a moment. Wedding. Tan Zheng said he didn't want to have a wedding for now. Three months ago, she felt the same way, but now she realized that after falling in love with Tan Zheng, not having a wedding was indeed a regret. "So when are you and Tan Zheng planning to have your wedding?" Song Ni withdrew her thoughts and smiled. "Where would I find the time? I have to come over to study after the New Year." "And after you finish studying?" Song Ni's eyelashes fluttered, and the corners of her mouth curved. "We'll see about that then." No matter how much Song Ni didn't mind taking the initiative, when it came to the wedding, she still wanted Tan Zheng to bring it up. After all, it was Tan Zheng who had said he didn't want a wedding. She didn't want to argue with Tan Zheng over this. Tang Tang, being perceptive, detected the unusual tone in Song Ni's voice after just a few sentences. "What's wrong?" Song Ni shook her head. "Sister-in-law, how did you fall for my brother?" Song Ni knew she liked Tan Zheng, but she couldn't pinpoint how it started. It seemed that from the beginning, just seeing Tan Zheng's name and her profile, she had been curious about this person. Song Jing had said that when a woman is curious about a man, that's the beginning of her liking him. Tang Tang's face flushed slightly. "Didn't you say that only my brother could coax you?" "Yes." "Then have you ever thought about why?" Song Ni: ...?????? Why? Did Song Jing have an innate comforting aura? "Perhaps it's fate." It was normal to like him if only Song Jing could coax her. Or perhaps, because she liked him, Song Jing's coaxing was so effective.
