The basketball rolled to Shang Ning's feet. Shang Ning bent down and picked it up. The boy came over, took the basketball, and thanked her, "Are you new here, sister? I've never seen you before."

The boy, his face covered in sweat, smiled as he looked at Shang Ning.

Shang Ning knew him; he was the youngest son of Professor Wang next door, and he used to like to follow her around calling her "sister."

Shang Ning nodded slightly, watching the boy go back to playing ball.

See, everyone is just a passerby in someone else's life. In time, everyone will forget that you existed.

Shang Ning looked up at Jin Yining, but there was no one by the window anymore.

Years later, will she also just be a passerby in Jin Yining's life?

Jin Yining took a coat downstairs and helped her put it on when they got to the playground. "Don't you know you should wear something before going out? Can't you make things easier for me?"

Shang Ning turned around and gestured with her chin in that direction, "Do you know how to play basketball?"

"I used to be the captain of the basketball team. Let me show you how to shoot a three-pointer. Just wait." Jin Yining said, went over to the group of boys, borrowed their ball, looked back at Shang Ning, and then started dribbling and shooting.

Shang Ning: "..."

The extraordinary life of a big shot is reflected on all levels.

The boys cheered and kept urging Jin Yining to shoot a few more shots; they had never seen anyone play basketball so coolly.

Jin Yining threw a few long-range shots, waved her hand, and stopped playing. She ran over to Shang Ning and asked, "How was it?"

Shang Ning gave a thumbs up, "Awesome! Teacher Jin is super handsome!"

Jin Yining patted him on the forehead and took her back.

"Hey, that guy just now looked like a celebrity, the one my girlfriend likes."

"No way, why would a celebrity come to our school?"

...

The boys behind them whispered among themselves and continued playing.

"Teacher Jin is amazing, he has fans everywhere." Shang Ning looked at him with a smile, completely unaware of her own odd behavior.

However, Jin Yining could see clearly that her personality was currently somewhat confused, but she didn't say it out loud.

In Shang Ning's words, you can't expect an experimental subject to be perfect, especially one like her that is still in the research and development stage.

She said it didn't matter, but it broke people's hearts.

Back home, Jin Yining still cooked, while Shang Ning was busy with her own things in the study, and Jin Yining didn't disturb her.

After dinner, Jin Yining had to get down to business. They were going to City C to meet with a few people.

"The old servants of the Ning family?" Shang Ning sat cross-legged on the sofa, looking at Jin Yining. "Why are you dragging the Ning family into this again?"

“Ning Sang went to Ning Baiyuan to ask for a land deed.”

"Land deed?" Shang Ning interrupted Jin Yining while hugging a cushion. "Ask Ning Baiyuan for a land deed? He's bankrupt and lives in your house. Where would he get a land deed?"

At this moment, Shang Ning clearly had no recollection of the land deed and naturally couldn't bring himself to mention it.

Jin Yining shook his head. "We can't do anything until Ling Guangshi is found. But Ning Sang went to the old man to ask for the land deed. She didn't steal or rob, but went directly to ask for it. She didn't dare to do anything to Ning Baiyuan. This shows that the land deed is very important. The Ning family must also have some secrets. What is the connection between this and the Ning family? Let's investigate the Ning family first."

That makes some sense.

“Ning Sang was doing things for someone else, so that land deed was requested by someone else. The Ning family…” Shang Ning said, tapping his head, “I always feel like Ning Baiyuan said something to me.”
