“Do you feel she looks familiar too?” Master Leng was surprised too. “Do both of us know the girl?”
“I think it’s possible,” said Leng Changzhi.
“Anyway, no matter who she is, she isn’t a bad person since she’s Ningning’s friend,” said Master Leng. Maybe both of them really knew the girl, but it wasn’t important now.
…
Once Jing Yunyao and Gu Ning left the house, Jing Yunyao took out the notebook and album to look at again. However, Gu Ning had something to talk to her about, so she had to interrupt her.
“Mother, I plan to let you stay in Shaoting’s house. Do you have other opinions? You don’t need to worry about Shaoting. He seldom comes back and he normally won’t use that house.”
Unless Gu Ning was in the house, Leng Shaoting normally wouldn’t go there.
“If you don’t want him to know about your existence for the time being, I won’t let him know. If you want to go somewhere else, I can help you too. Since you’re Shaoting’s mother and you’re not familiar with the capital, I won’t let you find a place to live on your own. There are other cultivators in the place where I live, so I don’t want you to meet them. Neither you nor Shaoting should go to the place where I live,” said Gu Ning.
She didn’t bother to hide it from Yunyao.
Leng Shaoting had houses, the siheyuan, and apartments under his name, but he only lived in one of the houses.
Jing Yunyao was surprised. “What? There are cultivators in the place where you live now?”
“Yes, I’ve met many cultivators these days, and you probably know some of them,” said Gu Ning.
“Do you know their names?” asked Jing Yunyao.
“The cultivators in the place where I live now are a brother and a sister. Their names are Baili Zongyang and Baili Zongxue,” said Gu Ning.
Jing Yunyao only forgot what she had been through in the mortals’ world, and still remembered what had happened to her in the cultivation world.
“They’re members of the Baili family. Why are they in the mortals’ world now?” Jing Yunyao was astonished. Normally, cultivators shouldn’t come to the mortals’ world. It wasn’t allowed among cultivators.
“What’s the Baili family’s position in the cultivation world?” asked Gu Ning. She was curious to know.
“It’s one of the four dominant families in the cultivation world. The other three are the Dongfang family, the Yin family, and the Jing family,” said Jing Yunyao. Since Gu Ning was aware of the cultivation world, it didn’t matter that she told her more about it.
“The Dongfang family? Is Dongfang Ziyu a member of the Dongfang family?” asked Gu Ning.
“Do you know Dongfang Ziyu too?” Jing Yunyao was surprised once more.
“I’ve met her a few times before, but we’re not familiar,” said Gu Ning.
“You’re right. Dongfang Ziyu is a direct descendant of the Dongfang family,” said Jing Yunyao. That was all she knew, because she had left the cultivation world years ago.
“I also know a cultivator who shares the same surname as you. His name is Jing Jining,” said Gu Ning. Actually, she already had the feeling that Jing Yunyao and Jing Jining were from the same family.
“What? Jing Jining?” Jing Yunyao was shocked.
Seeing Jing Yunyao’s reaction, Gu Ning was sure that they knew each other. “I’ve met him only twice.”
“Where is he right now?” asked Jing Yunyao.
“Last time I saw him was in the last month, and he told me that he was going to Province Yun, but I don’t know where he is right now,” said Gu Ning.
“Don’t mention me at all if you see him again. He’s my older cousin, and he always stops me from finding out what happened to me that year,” said Jing Yunyao, feeling quite nervous.
Knowing that, Gu Ning was confused.
“Why?” asked Gu Ning.
“He told me that I could die if I enter the cultivation world again. Although I don’t know what memories I lost and why someone wanted me, I have to stay away from the cultivation world, but…” Jing Yunyao looked very sad.
“Do you know who’s your enemy now?” asked Gu Ning.
“I have a suspicion, but no evidence, so I can’t make the conclusion now,” said Jing Yunyao. Although she had a clear answer in her mind, she couldn’t tell Gu Ning before she found solid evidence.
Since Jing Yunyao was unwilling to tell her, Gu Ning didn’t force her. “Mother, can you promise me one thing?”
“What is it?” asked Jing Yunyao.
“Even though you know who your enemy is, don’t take action alone. We can talk about it with Shaoting after you get your memories back.” Gu Ning almost begged Jing Yunyao. She didn’t want anything terrible to happen to Jing Yunyao again, and didn’t want Leng Shaoting to lose his mother once more either.
Gu Ning added, “Shaoting is at a low level right now, but he has an excellent experienced private teacher to help him make progress. He’s also a talented cultivator and he has gone up in three levels at a time. He’s in the period of turning qi into energy now, so I believe that he can become a senior cultivator in the near future.”
They were determined to take revenge.
