When they walked into the siheyuan, Jing Yunyao started to feel that everything looked familiar around her, but she didn’t have strong feelings. This siheyuan wasn’t small after all, so it was impossible for her to be familiar with every corner.
Once they went to the backyard, Jing Yunyao felt the familiarity of this place. She would know what it was like even if she closed her eyes.
Gu Ning told Jing Yunyao to look around and that she would keep a lookout.
Jing Yunyao nodded. She vaguely saw two people in the pavilion next to the pond. A man and a woman were playing with each other, and she could feel their happiness by watching them aside.
She thought that they must be Leng Yuanhan and her in the past. However, the vague pictures flashed by too fast to make her feel that they were real. It seemed that she just watched a movie, and couldn’t remember anything.
Jing Yunyao walked around and looked at the peach forest. There were no peach blossoms, but she seemed to see peach blossoms and the beautiful scenery. However, what touched her most wasn’t the scenery, but the people in it.
A man, a woman, and a little kid were playing, laughing and taking photos.
She knew that the man was Leng Yuanhan, the woman was her, and the kid must be Leng Shaoting.
Several photos of this peach blossom forest were put into her album, but these pictures just couldn’t help her get her memories back and make things more real.
Therefore, Jing Yunyao forced herself to think deeply, but she had a headache as soon as she thought deeper about it. For fear that Gu Ning would get worried, she stopped at once and she might not be able to figure it out right now.
“Mother, someone is coming.” At this moment, Gu Ning saw someone walking to them.
“Let’s leave now!” said Jing Yunyao. She didn’t think it was necessary for them to stay here for a longer time.
As a result, Gu Ning and Jing Yunyao left.
On the way back, Jing Yunyao remained silent again, because the scene she saw just now had a great influence on her.
All of a sudden, Jing Yunyao received a call from Jing Jining who said that he was in the capital and wanted to see her.
“Please wait a second.” Jing Yunyao wasn’t familiar with the capital, so she needed to ask Gu Ning for their location.
Gu Ning said, “Tell him to meet us at Mountain River Restaurant next to Mountain River Garden.”
Mountain River Garden was where Leng Shaoting lived, and there was a nearby restaurant called Mountain River Restaurant. They were owned by the same boss. If they met there, it would be convenient for Jing Yunyao and Jing Jining to go back to their homes after their gathering.
Hearing Gu Ning’s voice, Jing Jining was struck dumb for a second. To his surprise, Jing Yunyao was with Gu Ning now.
Although Jing Jining knew Gu Ning, he didn’t know about her relationship with Leng Shaoting. He decided to ask Jing Yunyao how she met Gu Ning later.
Gu Ning said to Jing Yunyao, “Mountain River Restaurant is next to the front gate of Mountain River Garden, so it’ll be convenient for you to go back home later.”
“Great.” Jing Yunyao nodded and felt touched that Gu Ning was so considerate.
It was 4 pm when Gu Ning drove Jing Yunyao to Mountain River Restaurant, and it was time for her to go see Shangguan Yang, so she didn’t walk inside with Jing Yunyao.
Because Jing Jining just got off the plane when he called Jing Yunyao, Jing Yunyao needed to wait for a while for him.
About 10 minutes later, Jing Jining came, heading straight to the private room that Jing Yunyao booked.
Jing Jining thought that he would see Gu Ning, but unexpectedly Gu Ning was absent.
“Do you know Gu Ning?” asked Jing Jining once he seated himself.
“Yeah, she’s Shaoting’s girlfriend, and it’s also her who recognized me,” said Jing Yunyao.
Knowing that, Jing Jining was surprised.
Anyway, Gu Ning was a very outstanding girl, so she and Leng Shaoting were a great match.
Afterwards, Jing Jining noticed Jing Yunyao’s face which didn’t seem to be damaged at all. He rounded his eyes in shock. “What happened to your face?”
“The scar was removed,” said Jing Yunyao.
“Did you have surgery?” asked Jing Jining.
“No.” Jing Yunyao shook her head. “Gu Ning gave me a magical pill and helped me heal it.”
Jing Yunyao trusted Jing Jining, so she wouldn’t keep it a secret from him.
“What? Gu Ning has such an effective magical pill?” Jing Jining was amazed.
“Yes, but I don’t know how she got it,” said Jing Yunyao.
Since Jing Yunyao didn’t know about it, Jing Jining didn’t ask further about it.
“How did she find you?” asked Jing Jining again.
Jing Yunyao then told him about her first meeting with Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting.
“Do you plan to see Shaoting?” asked Jing Jining.
“Why not?” asked Jing Yunyao instead.
“Have you ever thought about the consequence? You’re a cultivator and you age slowly. How should you explain it to him?” asked Jing Jining.
Jing Yunyao smiled. “Well, I don’t think it’s a problem now, because Shaoting is already a cultivator.”
“What? When?” Jing Jining was greatly surprised.
Only Leng Shaoting’s mother was a cultivator and his father was a mortal, so it wasn’t very likely for him to become a cultivator. Besides, if Leng Shaoting was already a cultivator, the cultivation world would find him sooner or later.
The Jing family would find him too.
