Celebrity Girl Is My Wife

Chapter 768

At Mountview Inn in Livingsfill, the dining table was filled with all sorts of delicious food.

It was a great day for a celebration, after all.

Ning Ran cleared her throat and said, “Before we start, I would like to say a few words. First of all, congratulations to Jingyuan on her safe return! This truly calls for a celebration! Secondly, Jingyuan said she likes Dabao very much. Personally, I think Dabao and Jingyuan share a unique bond with each other. After giving it some serious thought and discussing it with everyone, I have decided to have Dabao accept Jingyuan as his godmother! Put your hands together, everyone!”

She started clapping after saying that, forcing Dabao and Erbao to clap along with her.

Nan Chen couldn't help but frown at how irresponsible Ning Ran was. While he did know about her considering that decision, she did not discuss it with them at all.

Ning Ran had simply rushed back and declared her decision to make Lu Jingyuan Dabao's godmother.

Nan Chen had asked her to reconsider her decision, as they knew little about the Lu family.

Ning Ran shot him a fierce glare in response and said, “I'm the one who gave birth to Dabao, so I get to make this decision! I like Lu Jingyuan, and I want her to be Dabao's godmother! If you don't agree with my decision, then feel free to cut ties with Dabao!”

She made that decision all on her own! She didn't discuss it with anyone! Does she think she can represent all of us now?

“This is a joyous occasion, Mr. Nan. Why aren't you clapping?”

Nan Chen was snapped out of his train of thought when he heard her calling him out.

Although unhappy with Ning Ran's decision, he had to put on an act to avoid embarrassing Lu Jingyuan.

Nan Chen clapped his hands lightly and nodded politely.

“All right! Now, let us have Dabao raise a toast to his godmother! We will all be a family from here on!” Ning Ran said excitedly.

Dabao walked up to Lu Jingyuan with a glass of wine. “Here you go, Godmother! Please have some tea! I mean, please have some wine!”

Nan Chen couldn't help but find Ning Ran's shenanigans amusing.

Usually, juniors would offer their elders a cup of tea to show respect. The elders would take a sip of the tea as a form of acknowledgment and acceptance. Raising a toast, however, is a completely different story. The person raising the toast should empty their glass immediately after! I feel that Lu Jingyuan is the one being pressured to drink here. Ning Ran is breaking all the rules, but... Oh, well... As long as she's happy, I guess.

Lu Jingyuan, too, found it rather odd. However, she didn't mind it at all as she had just gotten a genius godson. In fact, she would happily down ten glasses of wine in one go if she had to.

“All right. I'll accept your toast,” Lu Jingyuan replied with a smile as she took the glass and downed the wine.

“I want to raise a toast too!” Erbao couldn't stand being ignored any longer.

Not only had they left her out with the whole godmother thing, but they also didn't ask her to raise a toast.

“All right. You can do it too,” Ning Ran said. I knew my baby girl would want to join in on the fun!

With a smile on her face, Erbao grabbed a glass of wine and handed it to Lu Jingyuan the same way Dabao did. “Here you go, Godmother! Please have some tea! I mean, please have some wine!”

Dabao had corrected himself after realizing his mistake, but Erbao didn't know that. She assumed it was part of the ceremony and followed suit.

“Thank you very much.” Lu Jingyuan took the glass and chugged it down as well.

Still feeling as though something was missing, Lu Jingyuan poured herself another glass of wine after that. “I'm so happy that I finally have a son now!”

Despite her usual reserved and modest personality, Lu Jingyuan was actually a very sentimental woman. When in the right mood, she could easily drink like a fish.

“You should eat something, Godmother. Drinking on an empty stomach is bad for your gut,” Dabao reminded her.

Erbao was quick to add, “You can have some of this, Godmother. It's delicious!”

As a child, Erbao craved attention and felt a little anxious when she saw Dabao getting a godmother.

“Thank you, Erbao. Ah, I forgot that I had prepared gifts!”

Lu Jingyuan leaped to her feet and retrieved the gifts she had prepared from the car.

She got Erbao six sets of clothes from the most luxurious kids wear brands in the world and two sets of clothes and a very slim laptop for Dabao.

“This is a military-grade laptop. It has lots of functions that common laptops don't. While others may not find these unnecessary, I'm sure my godson will be able to put them to good use!” Lu Jingyuan said.

Dabao, who was usually calm and composed, exclaimed excitedly, “Whoa! This is amazing! I like it very much, Godmother!”

“I like it too! Why don't I get a laptop?” Erbao asked.

Ning Ran rolled her eyes at Erbao. “You don't even know how to use a computer, so what would you want one for?”

Lu Jingyuan didn't know what to say in response.

I got this laptop through Lu Zhan. Because it's a military-grade laptop, it was really hard to get even a single unit. There was simply no way for me to get my hands on two units. Besides, it's like Ning Ran said. Erbao doesn't know how to use a computer, so there's no point in giving her one anyway. Who would've thought she'd want everything her brother had?

After giving it some thought, Lu Jingyuan said, “I'm sorry, Erbao. There was only one laptop available at the time. I'll try my best to get you another one if you really want it.”

Fortunately, Erbao was quick to realize that she shouldn't have said that.

“I was just kidding, Godmother! I don't need a laptop! I just want you to take me to Disneyland and treat me to lots of snacks!”

“That's no problem at all! I'll also try to get another gift for you, okay?” Lu Jingyuan said.

“Okay!” Erbao replied with a smile.

“You mustn't spoil her like that, Jingyuan. You give her an inch and she'll take a mile!” Ning Ran said. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

“Oh, but I want to! I'm happy with anything as long as she's happy. Besides, it's your job as her biological mother to discipline her. As a godmother, my job is simply to spoil her as much as I can! Now,

allow me to thank you both for providing me with two new family members! I'm really glad that I came to Livingsfill! Here's a toast!”

Lu Jingyuan had been living with her two daughters all year long. Her relatives and friends rarely visited her, so she felt rather lonely at times.

She was really happy to get a new friend like Ning Ran and two amazing godchildren.

She teared up with joy as she raised her glass and chugged her drink in one go.

Nan Chen and Ning Ran exchanged glances and downed their drinks as well.

Lu Jingyuan poured herself another glass of wine and said, “This toast is for Mr. Nan! I know that the Nan family is incredibly powerful. Thank you for accepting me as the godmother of these lovely children, Mr. Nan!”

Seeing as Lu Jingyuan had downed her drink, Nan Chen had no choice but to follow suit.
