Gu Jingchen knew about the Xu family's banquet.
Grandpa Xu invited him, but he declined.
He didn't want any involvement with the Xu family. After finishing his social engagements that evening, he returned to his hotel and, lost in thought, took out his old phone and fiddled with it, noticing a new text message.
He read the words "I am in the Xu family" over and over again.
Over the years, he changed his phone number and his phone, but he always kept the old one on him, which contained only Su Ning's number.
After Su Ning returned to Nancheng, he didn't know how to talk to her, so he used this phone to send her messages from time to time under the guise of a stranger.
In other words, only Su Ning knows this number.
After confirming this, Gu Jingchen felt both uneasy and delighted.
Xu Yi followed closely behind and knocked on the door, looking at him hesitantly.
"Sir, the Miss Xu whom the old master recognized tonight has crippled legs."
After the banquet, news of Miss Xu's affair spread throughout the capital's high society. Gu Jingchen returned after his social engagements, unaware of the situation. Xu Yi, having heard the news, immediately came to inform Gu Jingchen.
Based on what Xu Yi said, and the text message he received from an unknown number, Miss Xu might be Ningning!
Without having time to investigate the specifics of Miss Xu's situation, Gu Jingchen was certain it was true. He grabbed his phone and hurriedly left the hotel to go to the Xu family home.
He assumed that the eldest daughter of the Xu family had not left the Xu family.
Little did Xu Yi know that he had only heard half of the story and hadn't heard that Miss Xu had already gone to Shenyuan with Xu Jiang and his wife.
Gu Jingchen told the Xu family's servants that he wanted to see Miss Xu.
The maid thought it was Xu Huanyan, so she told someone to wait at the door.
After waiting for a while, Gu Jingchen heard footsteps and felt that something was wrong.
He must have heard the sound of wheels turning. He looked up in confusion and saw Xu Huanyan standing in front of him with a smile on her face.
"Mr. Gu, you were looking for me?"
Xu Huanyan smiled and asked.
Xu Huanyan had heard Xu Bai and Mr. Xu talk about Gu Jingchen's trip to the capital. She was surprised that he had come to the Xu family to find her so quickly. She lowered her head shyly.
Gu Jingchen was stunned when he saw Xu Huanyan, but when he heard her voice, he realized what was happening.
The Xu family had only one Miss Xu before, so the Xu family servants naturally assumed that he was looking for Xu Huanyan.
"Feel sorry!"
Gu Jingchen said apologetically, "I heard that tonight's banquet is prepared by Old Master Xu for the new Miss Xu, and I would like to meet her."
Ignoring the fading smile on Xu Huanyan's face, Gu Jingchen spoke directly.
"Gu Jingchen, why haven't you given up on her yet?"
Xu Huanyan said unhappily.
She helped Gu Jingchen find Su Ning and cared about him, so why couldn't he feel it?
She was clearly better than Su Ning, and she could walk and move around; Gu Jingchen was too stupid.
"It's her, isn't it?"
Gu Jingchen guessed the answer from Xu Huanyan's words.
He was certain, yet also afraid. Only after Xu Huanyan said this did he completely believe that the new Miss Xu was his Ningning.
"Can I see her?"
Gu Jingchen lowered his voice and said sincerely.
He and Xu Huanyan had only met a few times, but each time he either ignored her or treated her coldly.
This is the first time I've ever begged her like this.
Xu Huanyan was in a bad mood when she saw Su Ning appear tonight.
"Gu Jingchen, you've gone too far!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Mr. Xu's voice rang out from the doorway.
"Get them out of here!"
Under the cover of night, the streetlights were on in front of the Xu family's house. It was nighttime, so Gu Jingchen couldn't see Mr. Xu's face very clearly.
