Chapter 242 The corners of his lips turned up, never falling.
Fortunately, nothing else went wrong on the way back.
After disembarking, Ning Moran escorted Ning Yao and her two roommates back to school, while Ning Chen got straight into his car and drove away without looking back.
Sitting in Ning Moran's luxury car, Cui Mengmeng looked at Ning Chen's luxury car. At only eighteen years old, Ning Chen was already driving a car he had earned himself.
And what was she doing when she was eighteen? It seems she was busy eating and chasing after celebrities...
The more Cui Mengmeng thought about it, the more ashamed she felt. She really was a spineless person.
Turning back, Cui Mengmeng saw Ning Moran bending down to help Ning Yao fasten her seatbelt, a gentle yet deadly gesture.
Cui Mengmeng felt envious, and another unusually strong thought surged up in her mind.
Can't she skip the stage of finding a man and just have a ready-made son?
Xin Yujue felt the same way. It was no exaggeration to say that Ning Yao was the luckiest woman she had ever met.
Not only does she have a man of high status like Wen Tingye who cherishes and loves her, but she also has such a well-behaved adult son who is so devoted to her.
"Mom, I recently hired a Michelin-starred chef, and we're going to have a tasting today. Are you interested?" Ning Moran didn't want to part with Ning Yao so soon, so she had to come up with a way to keep her here, even if it was just to stay a little longer.
Ning Yao hesitated. She wanted to go back to Chen Xuezong as soon as possible and ask him to investigate the kidnapping and murder she had suffered during her trip.
Ning Yao knew that Wen Tingye had already sent people to investigate, but she still wanted to do it herself.
Given Wen Tingye's temperament, he would most likely find out who the person was and deal with them directly, without leaving them for her to personally judge.
Seeing Ning Yao's hesitation, Ning Mo looked at the traffic lights outside the car window and added another sentence.
"This Michelin-starred chef is very famous. His Iris Burger in Las Vegas, USA, is exceptional. The beef and foie gras are minced and made into a patty, served with truffle sauce and black truffle slices. The taste and texture are top-notch."
Cui Mengmeng's mouth was watering just listening to this, but unfortunately Ning Moran was inviting his mother over to eat, so there wasn't a share for her and Xin Yujue.
“Mom can bring her friends along. It’s still early, and it’ll be lunchtime soon. After you eat, I’ll take you back to school,” Ning Moran said with a smile.
“Okay, I’ll go to your place first. I’ll also take a look at how the new house is being renovated.” Ning Yao agreed.
Cui Mengmeng and Xin Yujue were overjoyed, but they suppressed their excitement on the surface.
I never expected to be able to eat Michelin-starred food after disembarking from the Costa Cruises. I'm so happy.
Ning Moran drove his car to his new villa. His mother bought the house for him in a very good location. It was not too far from the city center and very close to Ning Yao's villa, only two streets away, a ten-minute drive.
After Cui Mengmeng and Xin Yujue got out of the car, they stared blankly at the luxurious and beautiful villa with a yard in front of them, their eyes wide open.
Although I was mentally prepared, knowing that people who drive luxury cars probably live in decent conditions, buying such a house in the inner ring of the city center, where land is incredibly valuable, would probably cost more than ten million.
Moreover, a butler was already waiting at the villa entrance. The butler was in his early forties, dressed in a sharp old-fashioned suit, and had a very elegant demeanor. In particular, his polite and kind smile made people feel warm and comfortable, giving them a sense of belonging.
Behind the butler were the villa's servants, who were unusually formal, probably knowing that Ning Moran had returned with his mother. Everyone stood upright, making quite a show of force.
Cui Mengmeng and Xin Yujue exchanged a glance, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly: The life of the wealthy is truly astonishing.
The chef was busy in the kitchen; the dishes weren't fully prepared yet. The iris burger was just one of the many side dishes.
With nothing else to do, Ning Yao strolled around the villa, with Cui Mengmeng and Xin Yujue following beside her. They were curious about how such a large house could be decorated if only Ning Moran lived there alone.
Ning Moran also followed along, occasionally giving an introduction to the house's structural design.
When Ning Yao bought the house, she originally wanted to help her son design the interior decoration, but she was worried that her taste was different from her son's, so she left the decoration entirely to her son.
The house is for Ning Moran to live in, mainly so that he likes it.
Little did she know that Ning Moran liked every design she made.
The group walked to the door of a suite. Ning Yao curiously peeked inside and found it to be a huge walk-in closet with a novel design. The storage cabinets were very well-organized, each with its own lighting and intelligent voice control.
There was also a walk-in closet inside, filled with women's clothes. Ning Yao sighed inwardly. Her son had grown up and even knew to prepare a walk-in closet for his girlfriend. The girl who could be liked by her son was incredibly lucky.
Just then, her son spoke, and Ning Yao smiled and looked at him, listening carefully.
“These are two dressing rooms. The outer one is mine, and the inner one is for you,” Ning Moran explained.
"Wasn't this prepared for your girlfriend?" Ning Yao was overjoyed; she hadn't expected her son to have left her a walk-in closet.
"I have no plans to find a girlfriend yet." Ning Moran is not interested in women; the only woman he has ever loved in his life is probably his mother.
He didn't understand what love was, nor did he think it was meaningful to spend all his time being affectionate with a woman.
A girlfriend is a meaningless existence and a complete waste of time. He would rather spend that time developing new drugs in the lab.
Ning Yao and the other two went into the dressing room and took a look. Cui Mengmeng noticed with her sharp eyes that the clothes, dresses, pants, hats, shoes, jewelry and other items in the cabinets were all the latest seasonal styles from major high-end luxury brands. After counting them carefully, it was clear that every brand had everything!
Cui Mengmeng's eyes lit up immediately, and several "Holy crap!" thoughts popped into her head, but she didn't let them come out.
Ning Moran is so filial; he's practically the perfect son!
Although Xin Yujue couldn't recognize all the brands, it wasn't hard to tell from the quality of the clothes that every stitch was made with money.
With so many clothes, even if Luo Xiyao changed into a new one every day, she could wear something different every day for a year.
"This dress is so pretty, it suits you so well, Yao Yao. Why don't you wear it and show it to us?" Cui Mengmeng pointed to a white, wavy long dress and suddenly had an idea: to dress Luo Xiyao up like a Barbie doll.
Girls love playing dress-up games, but dressing up in real life is even more fun, isn't it?
Ning Yao glanced at Ning Moran, who smiled and nodded.
He built this walk-in closet to make his mother happy, so she could change her clothes however she wanted.
Ning Yao took off the white dress and then encouraged her roommate to choose one and try it on together.
Unfortunately, all the clothes were custom-made to Ning Yao's size, and Cui Mengmeng and Xin Yujue couldn't fit into them or they didn't look good.
However, they didn't care at all. Just seeing Luo Xiyao wearing it was already pleasing to the eye, and they didn't necessarily have to wear it themselves.
Ning Moran's lips remained upturned for a long time.
He was in a good mood seeing his mother and friends happily spending time together.
He was finally able to take care of his mother, so she no longer had to worry about them, her children, day and night.
