There were many suspicious points in what Su Ning said, but Xu Bai did not believe her completely or pursue the matter further.
He had a meal with Su Ning and the old man, but left because he had company business to attend to.
Before leaving, the old man instructed that Su Ning's matter should not be discussed with Mr. Xu and the others for the time being.
Xu Bai was puzzled, but still agreed.
"Xiao Bai was raised by me and his grandmother." After Xu Bai left, Grandpa Xu said with a smile.
Are Mr. and Mrs. Xu too busy?
"no!"
Grandpa Xu didn't continue.
Xu Sheng was always very busy, but Xu Huanyan was raised by Jiang Yun.
More than 20 years ago, Xu Sheng brought the child back and came directly to the old house. Even if Xu Sheng hadn't sent Xu Bai here, they would have gone there to demand him.
Xu Sheng didn't dare to face Xu Bai, while the old man and the others were afraid that the child would be spoiled.
"Gu Jingchen just arrived."
The old man brought this up again!
"I know."
Su Ning saw him. She was in the car, and when she turned her head, his figure disappeared from her sight. Unfortunately, he didn't see her.
Back in her room, Su Ning picked up her phone and received a message from Chu Feng.
Similarly, Chu Feng said on her phone that she ran into Gu Jingchen right after she left.
Su Ning didn't reply. She sat by the window for a long time, holding her phone, waiting for the sunset to begin. She opened the message box and typed in a number that was meant for a heartbroken person.
"Shall we meet?"
This number belongs to Gu Jingchen, but you could also say it doesn't belong to him.
When she first returned to Nancheng, she thought Gu Jingchen's old number had been changed to someone else's, and she chatted with the person on that end as if they were friends.
Once she knew Gu Jingchen's thoughts, she looked at the number again and was certain that the person on the other end was still Gu Jingchen.
This man, using a different identity, talked to her, telling her hurtful things while secretly treating her well. Su Ning felt exhausted just thinking about him.
Now, she doesn't text him directly to his new number anymore; instead, she sends the message to the old number.
If Gu Jingchen sees this and understands it, he will come to find me.
If I don't see it, then never mind...
This idiot, sometimes when he gets stubborn, isn't so smart.
It's not uncommon for high society to hold banquets, but the Xu family's banquet this time has been the talk of the town ever since the invitations were received.
Rumors have spread from the Xu family that Xu Jiang is keeping a mistress outside the home, and that the mistress has given birth to a daughter for him. Now the daughter has come to the Xu family, wanting to become a rich heiress.
Such things as having illegitimate daughters are not uncommon in their circle.
It's normal for men with money to be unfaithful, keeping four or five mistresses on the side, and having illegitimate daughters and children.
It's truly rare for a family like the Xus to hold such a grand banquet for an illegitimate daughter.
I heard that it was Old Master Xu himself who said that this banquet should be held in a grand manner.
It's really hard to understand why the old man, who is getting old and senile, would be so serious about recognizing his granddaughter.
Some say that the Xu family has too few daughters, and the old man and woman want to have another granddaughter.
Xu Huanyan is backed by the Jiang family, and she is Mr. Xu's daughter, which is incomparable to Xu Jiang's illegitimate daughter.
The guests who came to the banquet gathered together, and most of them were belittling and mocking the new Miss Xu.
In the Xu family's territory, in Madam Xu's home, these people were incredibly adept at changing their tune depending on the wind, and one by one they praised Xu Huanyan to the skies.
Xu Huanyan accompanied Madam Xu out for a social event, which was supposed to be a banquet for Xu Jiang's illegitimate daughter, but it turned out to be just the two of them.
