It was also the truth because Leng Shaoting was also a rare handsome and rich young man who could stay loyal to his partner.
“Ha-ha, right!” Master Leng laughed with happiness. He felt very satisfied that his grandson found a good girl to spend the rest of his life with.
However, Master Leng looked a little worried the next second. “Um, Girl Gu, I understand that you’re too young to get married now, but could you become engaged to Shaoting first?”
Master Leng couldn’t wait to accept Gu Ning as a member of the Leng family, in case it changed in the future.
Although Leng Shaoting had told him that they were going to be married one day, he was still worried about it. It was hard to see what would happen in the future after all.
Gu Ning was a little surprised.
“Leng, don’t scare Girl Gu like that. You just met her for the first time!” Master Xu said.
Master Leng smiled and said, “Alright, let’s drop this topic. Girl Gu, please don’t mind it. I’m not forcing you to do anything.”
“Grandpa Leng, I don’t mind, but I need to talk about it with my parents and grandfather,” Gu Ning said. In fact, Tang Haifeng also thought that it was a good idea for them to get engaged now before they got married in the future. It was a great alliance between two powerful families.
Anyway, both Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning believed that they already found their love, and they would be legally married sooner or later.
“No problem, I’ll visit your…” Master Leng stopped all of a sudden. “Did you just say your parents and grandfather?”
Didn’t Shaoting say that she grew up with her mother? How come she has parents and a grandfather now? Does she have a step-father?
Leng Shaoting didn’t tell Master Leng that Gu Ning was Tang Haifeng’s biological granddaughter, so Master Leng wasn’t aware of Gu Ning’s family background.
“Well, I’m sure that you must have heard of my grandfather. His name is Tang Haifeng, and my father is Tang Yunfan,” Gu Ning said.
“What? Tang Haifeng is your grandfather?”
Not only was Master Leng shocked, but Jiang Zhongyu and Master Xu were too.
“Do you mean the leading role of the Tang family in City B, Tang Haifeng?” Master Xu asked. He couldn’t believe his ears.
However, he thought that Gu Ning’s mother just married into the Tang family, and didn’t know that they were actually related.
“Yeah, the Tang family in City B,” Gu Ning said.
“If so, the woman who just married Tang Yunfan a few days ago is your mother?” Master Leng asked.
Master Leng wasn’t very close to Tang Haifeng, but he was also invited to attend the wedding. Unfortunately, he was too old to travel such a long distance, so he told Leng Shaoting to attend it on behalf of him.
Leng Shaoting, however, kept Gu Ning’s relationship with the Tang family a secret from Master Leng.
The Tang family was a well-known super-rich family, so news about them went abroad soon.
Many people knew that Tang Yunfan just got married, and that the bride was his beloved woman that he met 19 years ago. They also had a biological daughter, but not many people knew that the girl was Gu Ning.
Since Gu Ning told them, they realized that Gu Ning was a member of the Tang family.
“Why didn’t you tell me earlier? I should have attended the wedding!” Master Leng said and felt that it was a shame that he had been absent at the wedding of Gu Ning’s parents. If he had known Gu Ning was Tang Haifeng’s biological granddaughter a few days earlier, he would have attended the wedding ceremony.
In that case, he could have talked with Tang Haifeng about the engagement of Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting in person.
Thinking of that, Master Leng blamed Leng Shaoting for it. “Why did Shaoting keep it a secret from me? I feel like he doesn’t think I’m important.”
Actually, Leng Shaoting was unwilling to tell him because Gu Ning preferred to keep a low profile. In addition, even if Gu Ning turned out to be a member of the Tang family, it wouldn’t change the fact that she had built her own business empire relying on herself.
Leng Shaoting appreciated and loved Gu Ning because she was smart, beautiful and gentle, not because of her family background.
“Alright, we can talk about it later. Let’s see the antiques now!” Jiang Zhongyu interrupted them with impatience.
“Oh, right, please come on in!” Gu Ning said. “Why don’t we share dinner together? My treat.”
“Good idea!” Even if Gu Ning didn’t invite them to dine together, they would have done the same thing.
Afterwards, Gu Ning walked inside with them.
When they saw those antiques, they were all amazed.
