Chapter 346 From now on, this is your home
Ning Fengsheng was holding a paintbrush and drawing a crooked little man: "Here, this is stupid grandpa."
Mr. Leng took it and put it in his pocket as if it were a treasure. He also gave her a little mouse made of orange peel as a gift.
Ning Fengsheng cheered happily, thinking that although this stupid grandpa was a little silly, he was still a good person.
Mr. Leng also laughed. This silly girl is so cute...
The bodyguards were speechless... The two idiots didn't look down on each other's intelligence and got along harmoniously.
…
After eating and drinking, and taking a nap, Ning Fengsheng was awakened by a sharp gaze.
Master Leng had completely changed—his eyes were sharp, his aura was powerful, and he was staring at her with a scrutinizing look.
"Who are you?" His dementia symptoms subsided, and he regained his former self as the head of the Leng family, feared by the business world.
"I... I'm Shengsheng..." she whispered, "Why is Grandpa confused again?"
The entire room fell silent. Everyone held their breath, awaiting Master Leng's wrath.
However, to everyone's surprise, a crack appeared in Mr. Leng's cold and hard expression.
"Don't cry." He ordered harshly, obviously having lost all his strength and means...
Ning Fengsheng's tears fell from her eyes: "Grandpa is fierce... Stupid grandpa doesn't like Shengsheng anymore..."
Master Leng frowned, he had never coaxed a child in his life...
"Not fierce! Grandpa... cough, I just have a naturally sour face." He took out a handkerchief from his suit pocket and said, "Wipe your tears."
Ning Fengsheng took the handkerchief and blew his nose.
"Your name is... Shengsheng, right? Thank you for saving me." Master Leng tried to make his tone gentle.
These words stopped Ning Fengsheng's tears like magic.
She blinked her big wet eyes: "Grandpa, do you remember?"
"I remember now." Mr. Leng nodded. Although the doctor said that he might have some memory loss during the period of illness, he remembered it very clearly.
"But Grandpa is not stupid anymore. Will he forget Shengsheng again?"
Master Leng frowned.
After more than 60 years of ups and downs in the business world, he has long been accustomed to intrigues and deceptions, but he lets down his guard in front of this girl who is as pure as a blank sheet of paper.
"No. I promise."
At this moment, the bodyguard captain walked in with a serious look: "Chairman, look."
Mr. Leng took a quick look and saw a wanted poster with Ning Fengsheng's photo on it. The charge was stealing secrets of the Nanchuan Group.
"Ridiculous!" He crumpled the paper into a ball. How could such an innocent child be a corporate spy?
"Master, the wanted order was issued by the Nanchuan Group..."
"She can't even tie her shoelaces, and she steals things?" He sneered, "Nanchuan Jin is getting worse as time goes by."
He and Nanchuan Jin have known each other for decades. They are not only business partners but also family friends. He is well aware of Nanchuan Jin's cunning personality and there must be some hidden story behind this.
"Where are your family? Where is home?"
"Beachside, big house...but he doesn't want Shengsheng anymore..." Her voice gradually faded. "Didn't Grandpa say this morning that our home is Shengsheng's home?"
Master Leng was stunned: "My home?"
"That's what stupid grandpa said... Have you forgotten?" Ning Fengsheng looked disappointed. "Grandpa doesn't want Shengsheng anymore?"
Master Leng glanced at the crumpled wanted poster and said, "Of course I remember what Grandpa promised me."
Ning Fengsheng smiled happily, and then added as if remembering something: "Then Shengsheng will go back with you, but there's a condition...Grandpa can't be mean to Shengsheng anymore."
Master Leng: “…”
What's going on? Want to go back with him?
Looking at Ning Fengsheng's childish face, they had only known each other for a day, yet she completely trusted him...
Master Leng has never been trusted or relied upon by anyone in his life, and this feeling is weird.
"Aren't you afraid that grandpa is a bad man?"
"Grandpa can tell at first glance that he's not a bad person. Shengsheng is very good at recognizing people! But Grandpa has a bad memory, so he can't forget Shengsheng again!"
A rare smile appeared on Master Leng's serious face: "Okay, I won't forget."
"Let's make a pinky promise."
Under the stunned gaze of the bodyguards, the chairman of the Leng Group, a legendary business tycoon, solemnly raised his finger...
…
It was Ning Fengsheng's first time on a plane, and he was chattering happily as he stared at the clouds.
The plane landed in a Gothic manor.
The wrought iron gate slowly opened, revealing a building complex stretching for miles, with spires piercing the sky and ivy climbing up the columns. This was the old residence of the Leng family, one of the most wealthy families in Country Z. There had been no laughter or joy in thirty years.
"Wow—" Ning Fengsheng pushed open the car door. "Grandpa, your house is so big! You're not a good boy, you're secretly rich."
Master Leng looked at her joyful expression, a hint of indulgence flashing across his eyes that he himself hadn't noticed: "From now on, this will be your home."
The housekeeper, Uncle Te, had already been waiting at the door with the servants. When he saw the woman following Master Leng, he was shocked.
Si Yin? His daughter had been out of touch for over two months since she went to Country Z to participate in a design competition...
How come he came back with Old Leng?
Ning Fengsheng's eyes swept over the housekeeper and his wife, and he put his arm around Mr. Leng's arm, talking and laughing.
"Clean up the rooms in the east wing." Master Leng ordered calmly.
"Yes, sir." The old butler, Uncle Te, lowered his head, his face pale with fear. What's going on? Something big is going to happen!
Ning Fengsheng's arrival was like a stone thrown into an icy lake.
She would chase peacocks all over the garden, squat by the fountain and count the fish until sunset, and point at the oil painting of "Starry Sky" on the wall and say, "It's not as good as Shengsheng's."
Even Leng Xinqi, the granddaughter of the Leng family, didn't dare touch those priceless antiques. Yet, she dared to hold a Qing Dynasty blue and white porcelain vase as a toy. When the servants stopped her, she would pout in grievance, "Grandpa said, I can play with whatever I want!"
"Brother, I heard that grandpa brought back a woman of unknown origin and spoiled her to the sky." Leng Xinqi was very annoyed. She wanted to see which vixen could seduce an old man in his 60s.
"Get out." Leng Lintian, the eldest son of the Leng family, sneered with his purple lips.
"Brother, aren't you afraid that grandpa will give her the family fortune?"
Leng Lintian narrowed his charming almond-shaped eyes. Bottles and jars of medicine were placed in front of him. He picked up a poison and shook it gently: "There is nothing in this world that I am afraid of. Why don't you get out of here? Do you want to try my new poison?"
Leng Xinqi ran out in anger. This family is insidious and vicious. There is not a single normal person in it!
…
"Grandpa, look at the picture Shengsheng drew of yourself!" Ning Fengsheng rushed into the study holding a piece of drawing paper.
The person in the painting has a crooked round head, eyes drawn like two black grapes, a triangular nose, and an upward arc at the corner of his mouth. The word "Grandpa" is written crookedly next to it.
Mr. Leng frowned as he looked at the ridiculously childish portrait.
