After Rebirth, the Celebrity Daughter is the Medical Expert!-Chapter 389 - 291: My Boyfriend Really Knows What to Say
"We’ve agreed, right?" Fang Han giggled, "When the time comes, I’ll definitely give you a good assessment."
"Sure." Ning Youguang laughed.
Inviting Fang Han for a meal was out of the question.
Ning Youguang felt that after two lifetimes, she and this cousin were not kindred spirits.
There was really no need to forcibly establish a connection.
...
At lunchtime, Ning Yi arrived home punctually.
Fang Han accompanied him for a chat about matters in the circle for a while before starting to mention the dress she just saw, "Uncle, the dresses you and aunt prepared for Youyou are so beautiful, you must have put in a lot of effort to get so many haute couture, right?"
Ning Yi laughed, "Ah? I just relied on a few friends."
Fang Han frowned slightly, "Youyou picked two dresses, but she said she didn’t want the rest. I think it’s such a pity; they are all filled with your love."
However, Ning Yi grinned, "She chose two?! Looks like the dresses we prepared this time are quite good."
"Uncle?" Fang Han frowned in confusion, "Clearly, there are more that Youyou doesn’t like."
"You don’t understand," Ning Yi waved with a smile, "What she likes, she just doesn’t like to waste."
After speaking, he couldn’t help but sigh, "Even with a few clothes, she’s so frugal."
Fang Han noticed Ning Yi’s expression of praising her face while saying otherwise, and she changed her tone, "University lecturers indeed don’t have many occasions needing such good haute couture. Unlike us, when there are many events, dozens of dresses a month are needed."
Ning Yi nodded and began eating fruit.
Fang Han also picked up a fork from the fruit plate to join in, "Uncle, Youyou asked aunt to send back the remaining dresses. That’s so embarrassing, sending them back after they were brought to the house. How about this, the dresses Youyou doesn’t want, I’ll take them all. Just tell me how much, and I’ll transfer the money to you."
Ning Yi didn’t say anything for a moment.
His own niece, regardless of whether he gives her the clothes or not.
As for the money, he definitely wasn’t going to take her money.
The problem now wasn’t about the money.
It was about the clothes.
Each of these dresses was specially designed by designers he painstakingly found for his daughter, and whether in terms of material or design, they were of the best quality.
Except for the two dresses his daughter liked, he didn’t plan to let anyone else wear the others, not even his niece.
But since she spoke up, he found himself in a bit of a dilemma.
After a while, he put down the fork in his hand and smiled at Fang Han, "Hanhan, these dresses are all in Youyou’s size; they won’t fit you. If you want dresses, let little uncle buy any you like anytime, okay?"
Fang Han pouted, cuddling up to Ning Yi like a spoiled child, "Little uncle, if the size isn’t right, just have the designer redo them, I don’t mind."
"Don’t mind what?" Ming Jinxin came out of the room, having just overheard a bit.
Fang Han repeated what she just said to Ning Yi.
Ming Jinxin sat down beside Ning Yi with a smile, took a small piece of pineapple he handed over, and ate it slowly, "Hanhan is a big star, how could she wear the dresses our Youyou doesn’t want?"
She laughed, "If you’re short on dresses, just put some feelers out, lots of brands will be eager to send heaps to your door."
"There are indeed many brands doing their best to send me things," Fang Han giggled, "I just thought since Youyou didn’t want them, it would save you the trouble, and I could use them soon?"
Can those dresses, passed through several hands, compare to that uniquely beautiful haute couture on the rack?!
She had looked closely at those dresses on the rack, all handcrafted by that extremely renowned European master, priceless collectibles.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t be so covetous as to want to obtain them indirectly.
But she didn’t expect that even those Youyou didn’t want, her uncle and aunt were reluctant to give them to her.
"Hanhan is thoughtful." Ming Jinxin elegantly forked a piece of orange and handed it to her, "These dresses, we’ll keep for Youyou, not return them. Once purchased, there’s no reason to send them back."
She smiled and said, "When a girl grows up, she needs a few decent dresses for appearance’s sake. Youyou doesn’t need to tell us; we know the global academic forum conference she is hosting will run for several days, and she will need to attend many social occasions. Even state guests will be present at the conference. How could she wear casual clothes in those settings? Keep them; they’ll be of use."
Was it her imagination, or did Fang Han sense a double meaning in her aunt’s words?
"Sorry, I misunderstood. I thought academic conferences were filled with academics all focused on work, who didn’t care much about these externals."
"Whether the leaders care is their business. Youyou, as a junior in the academic circle, must not lack the necessary respect and rigor. Dress and appearance are important aspects on significant occasions," Ming Jinxin said with pride, "Youyou told me the leaders of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and relevant state departments will attend her conference, so she must dress formally."
Fang Han: "..."

Evening. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
When Shi Wangyue returned to the dormitory after work, she saw two dresses hanging in the wardrobe as she changed clothes.
"Finished so quickly?"
Everyone knows that customizing a dress involves several procedures—
Find a suitable designer, communicate your ideas with them, take measurements, create sketches, select fabrics, choose craftsmanship and details, and after several fittings, it’s complete.
"So, I’m also puzzled why Auntie was so quick?" Ning Youguang sat cross-legged on the sofa.
"Money is always the most effective and direct passport anywhere in the world," Shi Wangyue sat down beside her.
"Sounds quite reasonable," Ning Youguang said helplessly, "Such labor-intensive, costly, and time-consuming dresses, Auntie ordered fourteen."
"They only hope these unique dresses can shine with your individualistic glory," Shi Wangyue lightly placed a hand on Ning Youguang’s shoulder.
"For this fleeting individualistic glory, they had to spend a fortune on the entire process," Ning Youguang leaned against him, "But, apart from the fabric and stitches, the rest of that ’unique beauty and shining individualistic glory’ has little to do with the dress itself; it’s about everything outside the dress."
Shi Wangyue nodded slowly, "You already possess unique beauty and shining individualistic glory. Dresses are merely the shell and fur, the derivatives accompanying your radiant self. No matter how gorgeous, how exquisite, they are merely reflections and extensions of your brilliant self."
"Boyfriend really knows how to talk," Ning Youguang tilted her head and gave her boyfriend a kiss on the cheek, eyes arching in a smile. 1314
