“No problem,” said Shangguan Yang.
After accommodating Shangguan Yang, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting left.
There were two garages in this siheyuan. One was open, while the other was closed. The car Stone drove was in the open garage, and the closed garage was empty.
Because n.o.body knew whether there was a car in the closed garage, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting secretly put their ORV which they bought in City Ge into it before they drove it towards the Leng family’s old house.
The clothes Gu Ning prepared for Master Leng were placed on the rear seats in the car.
Gu Ning had also prepared new clothing for Leng Yuanzhen’s family and Leng Yuanqian, but she had no gifts for Jiang Shuyuan and Leng Shaojia. Leng Shaoming wasn’t in the capital, and Gu Ning had never seen him before, so she didn’t prepare a gift for him either.
She only prepared a gift for Leng Yuanqian because she didn’t have direct conflict with him, and there was no need for her to blame him for what Jiang Shuyuan and Leng Shaojia had done. Although she disliked him, she couldn’t forget her manners.
However, when they left the siheyuan, Leng Shaoting looked unhappy. Gu Ning understood his thoughts and said, “Don’t you want to improve your level as a cultivator?”
“I do, but I also want to have some private time with you,” Leng Shaoting said and sounded upset. It wasn’t easy for him to see Gu Ning after all.
“I want to stay alone together with you too, but your practice is more important. We can finish dinner earlier and go have a date before we go back to the siheyuan,” Gu Ning said.
“Great.” Leng Shaoting nodded.
Gu Ning didn’t tell Master Leng that she would go to visit him with Leng Shaoting in order to surprise him.
When they arrived at the Leng family’s old house, it wasn’t 6 pm yet, and only Master Leng was in the house. He was reading in his study, and didn’t know that Gu Ning came back with Leng Shaoting until Leng Changzhi reported it to him.
Master Leng was excited when he heard that both Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning were back, but the broad smile suddenly disappeared from his face once he thought of something.
“I don’t care whether they’re back or not. Don’t call me until dinner is ready!” Master Leng said and pouted.
Leng Changzhi didn’t know what to say at this moment. He understood that Master Leng was still annoyed at Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting.
Since Master Leng was unwilling to come out, he had to welcome Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning alone.
“Lord Leng, Lady Ning, welcome home!” Leng Changzhi smiled at Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning.
“Where is my grandfather?” asked Leng Shaoting.
“Master Leng is in his study now, and I already told him that you’re back home,” said Leng Changzhi. “He refused to come out.”
Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning exchanged a glance.
“Why don’t you go to see grandpa?” Gu Ning asked Leng Shaoting.
“It’s fine. Dinner is about to begin, and he’ll come out later,” said Leng Shaoting. He knew his grandfather’s personality very well, and he believed that his grandfather would come out soon.
Gu Ning agreed.
Master Leng refused to come out right now in order to wait for Leng Shaoting to see him, but Leng Shaoting was absent for a long time. He wanted to go outside right now, but felt it would be embarra.s.sing.
At this time, he was in no mood for reading, and regretted venting his annoyance on them. Afterwards, Master Leng slightly opened the door of his room, trying to hear what they were talking about.
…
When Yu Yin came home her face lit up with happiness once she saw Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting. “Hi, Shaoting, Ningning!”
“Hi, Aunt Yin.” Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting smiled at her.
“Aunt Yin, I just founded a new clothing brand, so I’ve prepared new clothes for all of you. Although it’s a new brand, it has great quality and I hope you’ll like it,” Gu Ning said and handed Yu Yin a box.
“Thank you so much, Ningning! You always come with gifts for us,” Yu Yin said and beamed. “I read the news about your new clothing brand. To be honest, I like Gufan’s designs.”
Hearing that Gu Ning had gifts for all of them, Master Leng ached to go outside.
“Oh, where is your grandfather? Isn’t he home?” Yu Yin asked all of a sudden.
“Grandfather is in his study now, and doesn’t want to come out until dinner is ready,” said Leng Shaoting.
Master Leng was angry again when Leng Shaoting said that, because he knew that Leng Shaoting did it on purpose.
“Fine.” Yu Yin felt it was strange, but said nothing further about it.
“Where is Shaoxi and Shaoxun?” Yu Yin asked.
It was during the winter vacation, so Leng Shaoxun and Leng Shaoxi didn’t need to go to their schools.
“They’re playing games upstairs. It’s my fault. I forgot to tell them that Lord Leng and Lady Ning are home,” Leng Changzhi said.
