soon.
The group then got into a fight.
The scene was chaotic.
at the same time.
On the bus.
Grandpa Jiang looked at Zhou Jinpeng and asked, "Old Zhou, where are you planning to go next?"
Zhou Jinpeng's house was demolished.
He had also severed ties with his nephews. It wouldn't be appropriate for him to stay here any longer; he was all alone, and what if his nephews ganged up on him and retaliated?
“Let’s go to the capital. I’ll go with you.” Zhou Jinpeng continued, “At least in the capital I’ll still know you and Ningning. We can meet up occasionally and have some tea.”
Zhou Jinpeng has thought it over seriously; he has no relatives left.
Rather than waiting to be schemed against in their hometown, they might as well go to the capital with Grandpa Jiang and Jiang Ning to settle down.
Anyway, he doesn't lack money now.
Grandpa Jiang nodded, "That's good too, we can still see each other often."
When people get old, they should have someone to rely on.
Zhou Jinpeng then looked at Jiang Ning, "Ningning, I plan to live in a nursing home from now on. Do you have any reliable nursing homes you can recommend?"
“There is one,” Jiang Ning continued, “Our company owns a retirement apartment. It’s a bit different from a nursing home. The management is more humane and it’s relatively free. The living environment and conditions are very good, and there’s a one-on-one butler. When we get back to Beijing, I’ll take you there to have a look. If you think it’s suitable, I’ll have someone give you a discount.”
Upon hearing this, Zhou Jinpeng smiled and said, "Okay, okay, then thank you for your trouble, Ningning."
Jiang Ning is now the only person Zhou Jinpeng trusts.
He naturally felt at ease with the retirement home run by Jiang Ning's family.
Jiang Ning bought a plane ticket for the next day.
After returning to town in the afternoon, Zhou Jinpeng bought some paper money, a paper-making cart, and a paper-making house, and went to his parents' graves to burn paper money.
Grandpa Jiang accompanied him.
Zhou Jinpeng knelt before his mother's grave, burning paper money as he said, "Mother, I'm going to the capital. I may never come back. Please take good care of yourselves down there, Father..."
The next morning at eight o'clock.
The three boarded a plane bound for Beijing.
Yang Xiaodie did not go back with them.
Because her hometown is also in Sichuan, she wanted to take this opportunity to go back and see her parents, so Jiang Ning granted her a ten-day leave.
Let her stay home and spend time with her parents.
11:30.
The plane landed at Beijing Airport on time.
"Ningning, Grandpa Jiang, over here."
As Jiang Ning pushed her suitcase out, she saw a tall, elegant figure standing in the direction of the arrivals gate.
The eighth month of the lunar calendar.
September in the Gregorian calendar.
Autumn had arrived in Beijing. The man was dressed in a suit and tie with a black overcoat over it, clearly having just come from a conference room.
"Shen Jingnian?!"
Jiang Ning only told her family that she was coming back today, but didn't tell them what time her flight was, not even to Shen Jingnian.
Seeing Shen Jingnian at the airport at this moment surprised Jiang Ning greatly.
"Little Shen!" Grandpa Jiang liked Shen Jingnian very much. When he saw him, his face was full of smiles. He immediately pulled Zhou Jinpeng over and said, "Old Zhou, let me introduce you. This is Ningning's boyfriend, Shen Jingnian."
Although Shen Jingnian was young, he had an extraordinary demeanor. Just by standing there, he exuded a sense of awe and authority that kept strangers at bay.
Zhou Jinpeng could tell at a glance that his identity must be very distinguished.
“Mr. Shen,” Zhou Jinpeng said.
Shen Jingnian smiled and said, "Grandpa Zhou, you don't need to be so polite. Ningning mentioned you to me. He said that you and Grandpa Jiang are very good friends. You can just call me Xiao Shen."
Zhou Jinpeng was taken aback.
This young man, despite his unusual background and aloof demeanor, was much more approachable than he had imagined.
Shen Jingnian then walked to Jiang Ning's side, took the luggage from her hands, lowered his eyes slightly, leaned close to her ear, and whispered, "Ningning, I miss you so much."
The warm breath sprayed all over Jiang Ning's ears, making her feel a little itchy. She quietly reached out and pinched her lower back, which had been heavy for many years.
She used some force, but Shen Jingnian's expression remained unchanged. He parted his thin lips slightly, as if nothing had happened, and looked at Grandpa Jiang and Zhou Jinpeng with his usual stern expression: "Grandpa Jiang, Grandpa Zhou, my car is parked in the basement. Please come this way with me."
In Shen Jingnian's view, hitting someone is a sign of affection, and scolding someone is a sign of love.
The more a leader pinches him, and the harder the pinch, the more it means they love him.
Grandpa Jiang and Zhou Jinpeng didn't notice the young couple's playful bickering and followed Chen Jingnian's footsteps.
We arrived at the basement.
Jiang Ning sat in the passenger seat.
Zhou Jinpeng and Grandpa Jiang sat in the back seat.
Zhou Jinpeng said, "Ningning, just have Xiao Shen drop me off at whichever hotel he passes by. I'll stay at the hotel for now, and we'll go see the retirement home together tomorrow."
“Grandpa Zhou, you can’t go to the hotel,” Jiang Ning turned her head slightly. “Knowing that you are coming to Beijing with Grandpa today, my parents and grandma specifically told me to make sure you stay at their home for a few days, and also to take this opportunity to have a good talk with my grandpa.”
Zhou Jinpeng said somewhat embarrassedly, "Wouldn't this be too much of a bother for you?"
These days, he has troubled Jiang Ning with a lot of things.
"It's no trouble at all," Jiang Ning said with a smile. "Our house is big, and my parents specifically told me to bring you home for a visit. If you don't come, I won't be able to explain it to my parents."
Grandma Shi and Shi's parents sincerely invited Zhou Jinpeng to be their guest.
Because they had long considered Grandpa Jiang as one of their own.
Grandpa Jiang smiled and said, "Old Zhou, it's alright, we're all family! Go and take a look! You didn't visit our home last time you came to Beijing, so this is a good opportunity to get acquainted with the place."
"Alright then!" Zhou Jinpeng said with a smile, "Old Jiang, Ningning, I'm so sorry to have bothered you."
Grandpa Jiang said, "We don't need to be polite between us."
Thirty minutes later.
The car arrived at the entrance of the Shi family manor.
Shen Jingnian got off the bus to help with the luggage.
After collecting the luggage and seeing the people to the door, Shen Jingnian looked at the two elderly people and said, "Grandpa Jiang, Grandpa Zhou, I'll head back now."
"Okay," Grandpa Jiang nodded, "Xiao Shen, be careful on the road."
Jiang Ning continued, "Grandpa Zhou, Grandpa, I'll go see him off."
"Go."
Shen Jingnian had already gotten into the car, and the window was open.
Jiang Ning stood outside the car window and quickly kissed him on the cheek. "Be careful on the road."
Shen Jingnian was startled by her sudden action and quickly covered the spot where she had kissed him, his face turning bright red. "My little darling, please take it easy! If your parents see this, I'll lose my legs!"
