Chapter 78: A Visit

Song Ning could not help but sigh as she said, “If my mother were still around, both of you would’ve gotten along very well…”

An Ran smiled and replied, “If Teacher Zhuang were still around, I’d pester her to accept me as her student and follow her for the rest of my life. Don’t worry. Even if Teacher Zhuang isn’t around, I’ll make sure her legacy, Zhuang Ji, stays around. Song Ning, I believe she’s watching us from heaven so we must work hard!”

“That’s right! We must work hard!” Song Ning could not help but be infected by An Ran’s enthusiasm. She was always filled with positive energy whenever she was around this group of people.

…

When the food was prepared, Jiang Jin had just gotten up from her nap after receiving her acupuncture treatment. Since she had rested well, she was in good spirits. When she saw the table filled with dishes, she asked tentatively, “Song Ning, is there anything I’m not allowed to eat?”

Song Ning smiled and said, “No, you can try all of them. You just need to pay attention to the amount you eat.”

Jiang Jin was delighted by these words. She turned to Jiahui and said excitedly, “I’ll listen to Song Ning. I’ll do whatever she tells me to!”

Jiahui patted Jiang Jin’s hand and said, “That’s right, Grandma. Even our classmates listen to her. When we’re studying for our exams, we’ll ask if certain topics would come out during the examinations. If she says no, we’ll skip them; if she says yes; we’ll study them crazily. That’s why we nicknamed her our ‘class treasure’.”

Jiang Jin laughed before she asked, “Is Song Ning really so amazing?”

“Of course! Everyone in our class likes her. Two days ago, our professor even lamented that our class is learning much more compared to other classes because we don’t plot against each other. Because of our treasure, we don’t fight among ourselves at all. She usually shares her notes with us. Nevertheless, she’s always first even if we’re all studying the same notes! Well, we’re not as diligent as her so we have no complaints,” Jiahui said as she laughed.

Jiang Jin was filled with pride when she heard Jiahui’s words.

At this moment, Song Ning placed a chicken wing on Jiahui’s plate and said, “Alright, alright, don’t talk so much…”

All of them chatted happily among themselves as they enjoyed the meal when Uncle Jiang suddenly came into the dining room. “Old Madam, Madam Ning is here to see you.”

Jiang Jin was stunned. “Madam Ning? Which Madam Ning?”

Meanwhile, Song Ning’s chopsticks clattered to the floor.

Mu Chen rose to his feet immediately and moved to Song Ning’s side before holding her hand. “Song Ning, let’s go upstairs, and leave this matter to Grandma.”

In just an instant, Song Ning’s face turned ashen, and her hands were cold to the touch.

The others looked at each other in confusion.

Jiang Jin asked, clearly worried, “What’s wrong, Song Ning?”

Mu Chen wrapped an arm around Song Ning’s shoulders and said in a deep voice, “If anyone asks about Song Ning, don’t say anything and don’t admit to anything.”

After he finished speaking, he brought Song Ning upstairs immediately.

However, when they reached the top of the stairs, Song Ning suddenly stopped walking and said with a slight tremble in her voice, “No, there’s no need for me to hide from her.”

She turned around resolutely and returned downstairs.

…

Meanwhile, Jiang Jin had told Jiahui and the others to continue eating before Yu supported her to the living room.

At this moment, Su Tong studied the living room and could not help but feel envious when she saw the design and decoration. Although they looked slightly dated, they were still stylish and minimalistic. This was how it should be, unlike the Ning family house where everything was expensive and exquisite but lacked style.

Su Tong had mentioned more than once that she wanted to redecorate the house. Ning Dong, her son, had grown up, and it was best for him to live in an appropriate environment. However, Ning Zhe had always given her all kinds of excuses. She knew that Ning Zhe still had Zhuang Yi and Ning Xia on his mind. She had heard that It was said that Zhuang Yi designed the house, and Ning Xia had a say in every detail. However, she pretended to be unaware of it.

Su Tong sneered. So what if Zhuang Yi designed the house? The fruits of Zhuang Yi’s labor were still enjoyed by herself, after all. Zhuang Yi’s daughter had been kicked out of the house while her son was staying there. She had been Madam Ning for ten years now!

Su Tong had thought everything had been settled and there was nothing to worry about. Who knew Ning Xia would appear again?

First, Ning Zhe was clearly distracted after running into Ning Xia. Then, he decided to invite her back for his birthday next month. Fortunately, Ning Chun failed to invite Ning Xia.

However, Ning Chun brought back a piece of news that shocked everyone: Ning Xia was now the wife of Mu Chen, the heir of the Mu family!
