After replying to Chu Peihan, Baili Zongxue turned to look at Gu Ning and said, “It’s rare to see you stay here.”
“Yeah, I seldom stay here, I often stay in other places,” said Gu Ning.
After running, Baili Zongyang proposed to buy morning tea for them, but Gu Ning declined because Mengda and Nan had already made breakfast.
If so, Baili Zongyang didn’t insist.
Gu Ning also invited them to join her for breakfast.
Baili Zongyang wanted to decline because he felt it was inappropriate, but Baili Zongxue agreed without hesitation because of her close relationship with Gu Ning.
So Baili Zongyang didn’t have other choices and went with them.
“Gu Ning, will you go to have fun today? If you are, bring me with you!” said Baili Zongxue. She was bored at home by herself, so she wanted to join them if they were going to have fun.
Most importantly, she preferred to be with Gu Ning. If there weren’t people she was familiar with, she would rather stay at home.
“I’m not sure, but I need to go to my company this morning. Why don’t you talk about it first? If there are any places you want to go, we can go together this afternoon,” said Gu Ning.
In fact, Gu Ning didn’t want Baili Zongxue to follow her because Leng Shaoting would be back today. If she brought Baili Zongxue with her, she wouldn’t be able to stay with Leng Shaoting. However, she was unwilling to turn her down, so she could only spend the night with Leng Shaoting.
Back in the house, Gao Yi and Qiao Ya were also present.
Gao Yi and Qiao Ya had been back in the capital for a few days. They had become familiar with Zi Beiying and the others. So as long as they were home, they dined together.
During these days, Gao Yi and Qiao Ya often practiced fighting skills with Mengda and Nan, but they were better than Mengda and Nan.
After having breakfast, Baili Zongyang left first, while Baili Zongxue stayed to talk with Chu Peihan and the others about where to have fun this afternoon.
Gu Ning also went back to her room to pack up, then went to her company with Gao Yi and Qiao Ya.
Everything was normal in the company, but the staff was very busy.
K reported the condition of Kuraki Akemi and Kato Toya to Gu Ning. They were fine and had left the hospital a few days ago, but they seemed to be investigating something recently. He didn’t know the details.
K couldn’t find out what they were investigating, but Gu Ning knew. It must have something to do with cultivators.
“No need to pay attention to them now. I’ll come see you if I need you,” said Gu Ning. For now, Kuraki Akemi and Kato Toya didn’t cause serious trouble, so there was no need to waste K’s time on them. After all, K had other things to deal with.
“Sure,” K said.
At noon, Gu Ning and the others left and went back to Century City. They shared a meal with Chu Peihan and the others, then went outside to have fun.
Because Gu Ning was occupied, Leng Shaoting went to the siheyuan first after he got back to the capital. And in the afternoon, he brought Jing Yunyao back to the Leng family’s house.
He called Shangguan Yang to go with him, but Shangguan Yang turned him down and didn’t go back with them.
Because it was a weekend, Leng Shaoming was back too. The members of the Leng family were all present today.
Once Leng Shaoting and Jing Yunyao showed up, Jiang Shuyuan, who was in the living room, got up and went upstairs, because the last thing she wanted to do was to see them, let alone greet them.
Sitting in the living room, Leng Shaoming felt embarrassed, but couldn’t criticize his mother.
Although he disliked Leng Shaoting and Jing Yunyao, he hid his real feelings and greeted them as usual.
Other than Leng Yuanqian’s family who treated Leng Shaoting and Jing Yunyao coldly, the other members welcomed them with enthusiasm.
Yu Yin directly pulled Jing Yunyao aside to chat with her, while Leng Shaoting was pulled away by Leng Shaoxun to teach him kung fu.
“Aunt Yunyao, why didn’t Gu Ning come with you?” Leng Shaoxi asked Jing Yunyao. She hadn’t seen Gu Ning for a long time because Gu Ning seldom went to school and she was busy with an internship recently. So she didn’t have much time to see Gu Ning.
“She went to have fun with several of her friends,” said Jing Yunyao.
“Fine!” Leng Shaoxi was a little disappointed, but she couldn’t do anything about it.
Jiang Shuyuan and Leng Shaojia didn’t come out until they needed to have supper at night.
It was the first time that Leng Shaojia had seen Jing Yunyao after Jing Yunyao joined the Leng family again, but she was already aware that Jing Yunyao was back.
When Jiang Shuyuan went upstairs, she also told her that Leng Shaoting and Jing Yunyao came.
Leng Shaojia was afraid to see Leng Shaoting, so she stayed in her room all the time, but she had to go downstairs for dinner.
She needed time to recover, but was able to walk now, so Master Leng would be mad at her if she refused to come down. That was the reason why she came downstairs.
It was Leng Shaojia’s first meeting with Jing Yunyao after Jing Yunyao came back.
When Jing Yunyao had the terrible accident, Leng Shaojia was only seven and didn’t have many memories of her.
Anyway, as soon as she saw Jing Yunyao, Leng Shaojia was sure it was her and she was also astonished because of that. Jing Yunyao looked so young; she seemed to only be in her thirties. In addition, she was very pretty too.
After all, if she wasn’t pretty, she wouldn’t be able to have such a handsome son as Leng Shaoting.
Although she disliked Leng Shaoting and even hated him, she never denied the fact that Leng Shaoting was very handsome. Leng Shaoting was even more beautiful than her own older brother and was outstanding among his peers too.
Seeing Leng Shaoting and Jing Yunyao, Leng Shaojia had no intention of greeting them.
Master Leng was displeased and said to Leng Shaojia, “This is your Aunt Yunyao.”
He was ordering Leng Shaojia to greet Jing Yunyao.
Even if it was the first time that Leng Shaojia had seen Jing Yunyao after Jing Yunyao came back, Master Leng was aware that Leng Shaojia could recognize Yunyao. After all, Jing Yunyao was the only one she hadn’t seen before in the room, and Master Leng also knew that Jiang Shuyuan would tell Leng Shaojia that Jing Yunyao was back.
Leng Shaojia deliberately refused to greet Jing Yunyao.
If she didn’t forget her manners, she would have asked about the new face even if she didn’t know Jing Yunyao.
It wasn’t a big deal that Jiang Shuyuan didn’t say hi to Jing Yunyao because they were in the same generation, but Leng Shaojia was a junior. She shouldn’t ignore Jing Yunyao.
Leng Shaojia was reluctant to do so, but she had to listen to Master Leng, so she said with reluctance, “Hi, Aunt Yunyao.”
“Hi, you must be Shaojia, right?” Since Leng Shaojia greeted her, Jing Yunyao couldn’t ignore her. Therefore, she replied in a flat voice.
“Yeah,” said Leng Shaojia.
After that, she said nothing further and they sat down to have the meal.
As long as Leng Shaoting and Jing Yunyao came, Jiang Shuyuan didn’t have much appetite, and neither did Leng Shaojia. On the other hand, Leng Yuanqian and Leng Shaoming weren’t affected.
