Chapter 117: One hundred seventeen, your opinion Chapter 117: One hundred seventeen, your opinion Qin Yushen walked up behind Song Yan Ning and watched her with a smile, “Mom, I’m coming along tomorrow.” Xiao Ning was going back the day after tomorrow, so he cherished any additional day he could spend with her.
Liu Shanyue looked at Qin Yushen with surprise, “You’re going too?” Was the sun rising from the west? Previously when she had asked Xiao Shen to visit her company, he had refused time and again, but now he was taking the initiative to go.
“Uh-huh,” Qin Yushen nodded.
He Yuqing smiled as she watched Qin Yushen, who was gazing at Song Yan Ning, her own smile deepening. It seemed that Xiao Shen really liked Xiao Ning, she just wondered whether these two kids could end up together in the future. She hoped they could, although Xiao Ning wasn’t beautiful, her inner beauty was exceptional, plus she was so outstanding. Of course, the most important thing was that Xiao Ning was the only girl Xiao Shen was willing to approach.
“Old Madam! Dinner is ready,” Aunt Liu came over and said.
He Yuqing nodded and gently patted Song Yan Ning’s hand, “Xiao Ning, let’s go have dinner.”
“Okay,” Song Yan Ning nodded in response.
“Xiao Ning, we are really basking in your light today, Grandma Qin rarely cooks herself,” Liu Shanyue said with a smile as she took Song Yan Ning’s hand, walking toward the dining room together with He Yuqing.
“Thank you, Grandma Qin!” Song Yan Ning smiled and thanked He Yuqing.
He Yuqing, smiling, ruffled Song Yan Ning’s hair, “As long as you don’t find it too unpleasant to eat.”
When everyone arrived at the dining room, they saw the dinner table already filled with dishes.
“Xiao Ning, let’s sit over there,” Qin Yushen stepped forward, took Song Yan Ning’s hand from Liu Shanyue, and walked toward his usual seat.
Liu Shanyue shook her head with a smile and sat down in her own seat. Now Xiao Shen was acting like a child, unlike the miniature adult he used to be, speaking with an old-fashioned seriousness.
Mr. Qin picked up his chopsticks and looked at everyone with a smile, “Let’s eat, there’s no need for formalities today, just be at ease.” They had invited Xiao Ning over for dinner, so the atmosphere should be lively.
Everyone nodded and picked up their chopsticks.
“Xiao Ning, try this.”
“Xiao Ning, eat this.”
In just a short while, Song Yan Ning’s bowl was heaped with food.
Song Yan Ning looked at her bowl, a bit speechless. She usually ate very little, so how could she finish all this food?
Qin Yushen saw the expression on Song Yan Ning’s face and slightly curled the corners of his mouth. He looked at He Yuqing and Liu Shanyue, “Grandma, Mother, if you keep adding more, Xiao Ning might be scared away.” There was indeed too much food, which was overwhelming for Xiao Ning.
He Yuqing and Liu Shanyue looked into Song Yan Ning’s bowl and realized they indeed had served her too much.
“Xiao Ning, it’s okay if you have leftovers, just eat what you like,” He Yuqing said with a smile, finding Xiao Ning more and more to her liking the more she looked at her.
“Sure!” Song Yan Ning smiled and nodded.
Cheng Jun was sitting on the couch playing games when he heard the sound of a car outside; he knew his dad was back. This morning when he got up, his dad had already gone to the company. To prepare for the cooperation with the Song Family, his dad had been leaving early and returning late these past few days.
Cheng Fengjie walked into the living room and was surprised to see Cheng Jun sitting there, “Why are you here?” Every time he came back, his son had already gone to his room and it was hard to catch a moment with him, so their communication was limited.
“Dad, I have something to tell you.” Cheng Jun put down his phone and looked at Cheng Fengjie seriously.
“Okay,” Cheng Fengjie nodded and sat down beside Cheng Jun.
“Dad, I might soon be disqualified from the Emperor Realm,” Cheng Jun said, having felt down all day because of this issue. His points had been stolen to help Song Yanxue, and now he was afraid to enter the Emperor Realm. It might be tolerable to be disqualified from the Emperor Realm without points, but if he were wiped out inside the realm, it would mean death in reality too.
“Why?” Cheng Fengjie asked, puzzled. That spot in the realm had taken him a lot of effort and even calling in favors from Mr. Cheng to secure, with the purpose of making his son strong in the Emperor Realm; the strength of his son would determine the power of the Cheng Family in the future. Many world-class magnates were members of the Emperor Realm.
The Emperor Realm wasn’t just a system; it held many secrets unknown to the public. However, only the outstanding ones in the realm had the chance to uncover those secrets.
Cheng Jun explained in detail what had happened last night in the Emperor Realm to Cheng Fengjie, “Dad, I’m sorry! I didn’t expect things to turn out this way, I thought lending my points to Song Yanxue and helping her would be advantageous for the cooperation case.”
Cheng Fengjie sighed internally, tapped Cheng Jun on the shoulder, “Do you know who stole your points?”
“I only know one of them is Qin Yushen, and the other, I don’t know, is a little girl, her code name is ‘Doctor’.” Cheng Jun, recalling the situation, felt heavy-hearted. If he were still in the Primary System of the Emperor Realm, he wouldn’t worry, as even the simplest task there could earn him points. But now he was in the Intermediate System, where even the simplest tasks there were much harder than the Primary System. What was worse, the teammates who once obeyed him now loathed him; if he entered the realm, they would surely find a way to deal with him.
“Stay out of the realm for now,” Cheng Fengjie was also afraid Cheng Jun would encounter danger. He only had this one son, and he couldn’t take this risk. Qin Yushen was from the Qin family, definitely someone they couldn’t afford to offend, but perhaps they could use this incident to negotiate some terms with the Song family.
Thinking this, Cheng Fengjie took out his phone and dialed Song Yufeng’s number.
Song Yufeng was having dinner when he heard his phone ring and frowned in displeasure. Those who knew him were aware that once work hours were over, he wouldn’t handle business matters.
He took out his phone, saw the caller ID, and pressed the power-off button.
“Sorry! The number you have dialed is switched off…” Hearing the announcement, Cheng Fengjie could only put away his phone reluctantly. It seemed he would have to find Song Yufeng first thing tomorrow morning.
Song Yufeng finished dinner and headed to the study with Mr. Song.
Closing the study’s door, Song Yufeng sat down opposite Mr. Song.
Mr. Song took a sip of tea, looked at Song Yufeng, and asked at a leisurely pace, “Yufeng, did you ever resent Dad for giving the family heirloom, the White Jade, to Xiao Ning?”
Song Yufeng shook his head, “No, since Dad made that decision, there must have been a reason.”
Mr. Song smiled, “Tell me your view of Xiao Ning.”
