Chapter 160: Taking the Girls to Meet Her Boyfriend’s Parent
As an actress, Yun Xiangxiang actually had never thought about something like being too bold.
As long as it was not pornography, she thought nothing about kissing or touching in her past life if the film had meaning.
That was her job requirement. However, she came across Song Mian in this life. She had to pay attention to a man as nice as Song Mian.
Even though having such a restriction would cost her a lot of great chances, since many films would require it.
It was not to attract the audience. The rising romance between a couple naturally needed some expression for it to be infectious.
“Before I knew you and decided to be together with you, I knew that you are an actress.”
Song Mian held Yun Xiangxiang’s face in his hands, “I may mind a few things, but they are not unacceptable. This is the respect toward your career.”
It was the same thing for a doctor like him. He had seen many men and women in their birthday suit. This was an inevitable requirement for his career.
He did not discuss this with Yun Xiangxiang because he did not mind it. It was because he needed to face it.
He would never have pursued her once he knew she was an actress if he could not accept it.
His outlook on relationships was never to mold his lover into the shape that he wanted.
He would love her realest self.
She kissed Song Mian’s lips, “Thank you, Ah Mian.”
Various professions have their own limitations. Actors and actresses were not the only people who were facing it. However, someone had to fill in the positions.
Just like how the police officers in “Justice and Selflessness” would be faced with difficult choices too.
It would be impossible for nobody to be police officers just because they did not have the time for their families.
Of course, actors could not be compared with the police. Many would be more than happy to see one less actor.
However, Yun Xiangxiang loved this profession. She loved to play different characters.
This was her interest and career. Song Mian was her love and home.
She was slightly avaricious. She wanted them all.
If there would be a conflict between her love and her career in the past, she would maybe give up love without batting an eye
However, Song Mian was different. She thought that she would give acting up for him and choose another career if he could not accept it.
“I wish that your life can be perfect. You can have your cake and eat it,” Song Mian would not have her lose any happiness because of him.
“Ahem!” Song Meng’s stomach was growling. “I have had my fill of looking at you two lovebirds sing your love song. Looks like I don’t need dinner anymore.”
Yun Xiangxiang immediately let go of Song Mian. She was greeted by the trio who was already in the living room. “You can go away now.”
Song Meng glared at Yun Xiangxiang. She knowingly followed Li Xiangling to serve the dishes.
After they had finished dinner, Yun Xiangxiang cut to the chase, “You two are restarting school soon, right?”
Their school would start at almost the same time. Yun Xiangxiang was asking them to leave.
“Yun Xiangxiang, there is actually a day when you look so disgusting,” Song Meng raged against her.
“I am visiting Ah Mian’s dad tomorrow. I don’t have time to play with you girls,” Yun Xiangxiang hugged Song Mian’s arm. “Of course, you girls can stay a few more days if you don’t mind.”
Yun Xiangxiang really had no option but to send the girls away. She had next to no time to play with them.
“Can we go visit uncle together?” Li Xiangling suddenly suggested.
Song Meng tugged at Li Xiangling’s sleeve in shock. However, Li Xiangling looked at Song Mian.
Even though Yun Xiangxiang looked like she thought everything was okay, Li Xiangling thought that a woman in love would look at her partner through rose-colored glasses.
She needed to see it with her own eyes. This was not Yun Xiangxiang’s first visit. It would not be discourteous for them to follow her.
Compared to my girl’s happiness, what’s being shameless for once?
“Of course you can,” Song Meng understood what Li Xiangling was thinking.
“You have to be nice to me, or else my girlfriends are going to let you have it,” Yun Xiangxiang grinned at Song Mian after Li Xiangling and Song Meng left.
“Having so many people adore you proves that my taste is great. Naturally, I must treasure you,” Song Mian bent down to touch her forehead with his.
“Oh right, Shanshan gave me a ginseng. Help me appraise it. If it’s fine, I’ll give it to Uncle Song tomorrow,” Yun Xiangxiang turned around to take the ginseng.
Even though it was a birthday gift from Wei Shanshan, Yun Xiangxiang still planned to give it to Uncle Song,
It was not because of its value, but because of them being doctors. This ginseng could only be used to its fullest in their hands.
She could only keep it as a collection if she held on to it. She trusted that Wei Shanshan would not mind. They were the same kind of people after all.
If her friends gave the gift she had given them away not because of disdain, she would think nothing of it.
A gift was someone else’s property once it was given away. The owner had every right to do what they wanted with it.
“This wild ginseng is of great quality. It’s quite rare to see a ginseng of such history now,” Song Mian commented after he took a look.
He did not stop Yun Xiangxiang from giving this as a present. This wild ginseng was an extremely nutritious item. If those who had never learned about traditional Chinese medicine or ginseng consumed it, it would cost them their lives.
He was already thinking how to maximize the benefits of this wild ginseng and make some great tonic for Yun Xiangxiang to consume.
Even though she knew Wei Shanshan would not mind, Yun Xiangxiang still sent a WeChat message to Wei Shanshan.
[Shanshan, I’ll be giving my elders the ginseng you gave me.]
She did not call her, as she worried that Wei Shanshan might be working or resting. It came as a surprise when Wei Shanshan replied to her in an instant.
[It’s your stuff. What are you asking me for? It’s your freedom to do whatever you like.]
Yun Xiangxiang replied: [I hired an experienced traditional Chinese medicine practitioner. He said that this kind of ginseng is rare. Do you have any more avenues to get it?]
She knew that some people who were in the ginseng business in the northeast region had some good stuff with them. However, it was not something that could be bought with just money.
It also depended on their relationship with the buyer. If the buyer was a stranger, they would never sell it even if it took up space in their home.
[I’ll ask around for you. Tell you more when I have news. Talk to you later, I’m so sleepy.]
[Good night.]
On the next day, Yun Xiangxiang and Song Mian brought Yun Lin, Li Xiangling, and Song Meng along to visit Uncle Song.
Yun Lin started warning the girls about how gigantic the Song Manor was. However, the girls were still stunned when they saw it with their own eyes.
“See, elder sister? I am not the only one who embarrassed myself,” Yun Lin smiled smugly.
“Aiya, little Xiang even brought two adorable girls with her,” Master Song welcomed them himself. He also smiled warmly when he saw Li Xiangling and the others.
“This is…?” Song Meng whispered.
“This is Ah Mian’s father, Uncle Song.” Yun Xiangxiang introduced. “Uncle Song, they are my best girlfriends. We grew up together.”
“Fa…father…,” Song Meng looked back and forth at Song Mian and Master Song. Her eyes almost popped out of its socket. She blurted out, “Is he your real father?”
Li Xiangling pinched her furtively. She pulled Song Meng to her back without anyone noticing before giving the pot of flower she was holding to Master Song politely, “Hello, Uncle Song. Sorry for disturbing. I heard that you like plants. Here’s a little gift, I hope you like it.”
