"Alright, let's cut to the chase. Anyway, the result isn't too bad. Before long, they'll come to the cultivation world and take back what they deserve from those people, "said Jing Jinning. A touch of annoyance flashed through his eyes. He was looking forward to Jing Yunyao and Leng Shaoting coming back to the cultivation world to take revenge.
"Will they kill our family head?" asked Jing Yanhua worriedly.
Although Jing Yaorong indeed made a big mistake and he deserved to be punished, he was his older brother after all, so Jing Yanhua couldn't watch him die.
He didn't care about anything else except death.
"They won't let them die. Our family head is Yunyao's biological father after all. They won't kill him no matter what. However, our family head killed her husband and separated her from her son for many years. Even if they won't kill him, they'll at least cripple him, "said Jing Jinning. Thinking of what happened to Jing Yaorong, he had no sympathy for him at all. Instead, he thought that Jing Yaorong deserved it.
Since that was the case, Jing Yanhua didn't say anything further, because he was in no position to stop them.
Even if he wasn't the one who was hurt, he could understand the hatred in Jing Yunyao's heart.
There was another thing that Jing Yanhua actually wanted to ask Jing Jinning about, but he didn't think it was appropriate, so he didn't ask about it.
Jing Yanhua wanted to know who would take over the family head's position if Jing Yunyao came back to take revenge and overthrew Jing Yaorong's family.
However, Jing Yunyao was at the highest level in the Jing family, so she would definitely be the next family head.
Although he didn't know that Jing Yunyao didn't want to be the head of the Jing family and supported Jing Yunyao to be the next family head, Jing Yanhua and his wife had no objection even if Jing Yunyao wanted to be the next family head herself. Instead, they wholeheartedly agreed.
Except for Jing Yunyao, no one else in the Jing family was more suitable than her.
After that, they stopped talking about it and continued to enjoy the meal.
Jing Yaorong didn't send anyone to the south courtyard to eavesdrop, because Jing Jining was already at the peak of the Golden Core Stage now. Only cultivators in the Yuan Ying Stage could go there, otherwise they would be easily discovered.
He couldn't do such a thing himself, but he couldn't let the Great Elder and the Third Elder go either. Even though he was the leader of the family, the elders didn't have to obey him. They only got involved in important matters of the Jing Clan.
If he let the elders eavesdrop, it would be nothing more than a humiliation to them and would anger them. At this time, the last thing he could do was to anger the elders.
Therefore, Jing Yaorong didn't ask them to go.
In addition, Jing Jining and the others weren't stupid enough to let him send people to eavesdrop on them. Even if they went to eavesdrop, they probably wouldn't tell him.
Jing Jining knew that Jing Yaorong would think of them that way, and he didn't find anyone eavesdropping on them, so he said so much to Jing Yanhua and his wife.
After the meal, Jing Jining went back to his room to have a rest. Since he couldn't go out to the cultivation world, he decided to cultivate at home.
The people Jing Yaorong sent out to look for Jing Yunyao still failed, but they kept on looking for her.
The next day at noon, Leng Shaoting went back to the army, Gu Ning went to her company, and Jing Yunyao went to a flower shop.
Two days later, the day before the Lantern Festival, Gu Ning went back to City B to celebrate the festival with her family.
On the day of the Lantern Festival, Gu Man invited Gu Qing and Gu Qinyang's families to celebrate it together in City B, and they were both free, so they all came.
As for Gu Qinxiang's family, Gu Man didn't invite them. Although they could let bygones be bygones, they couldn't be friends anymore.
Gu Man didn't know that the old lady had woken up, because Gu Ning had told him not to tell anyone.
The old lady was half-conscious now. Although she could move her upper limbs, she couldn't move her lower limbs, so she could only sit in a wheelchair.
However, he was able to speak clearly now, but his ability to organize his words was still very weak. He couldn't speak too long, and could only speak briefly.
Because the old lady was taken back to Gu Qinxiang's house, Gu Qinxiang hired two nannies to take care of Lin Lijuan, who was mentally retarded, and the old lady who was half-paralyzed.
Although Lin Lijuan was mentally retarded, she usually behaved herself. She only had a fit once in a while. As long as the nannies kept an eye on her and didn't let her go out, everything would be fine.
As for the old lady, although she wasn't fully conscious yet, she was still as annoying as before. She didn't like this or that, and even cursed Gu Man and Gu Ning from time to time.
Gu Qinxiang had already told the old lady that if it hadn't been for Gu Ning, she wouldn't have woken up.
However, the old lady believed that if it hadn't been for Gu Ning, she wouldn't have been paralyzed, and she didn't believe that Gu Ning had the ability to wake her up. Therefore, the old lady believed that it was her own fate that she was able to wake up.
Therefore, Gu Man and Gu Ning were still the same in her heart.
Seeing that the old lady didn't feel guilty at all, Gu Qinxiang didn't say anything. He was even more embarrassed to let Gu Ning and the others know about it, because he felt ashamed.
In the past, Gu Qingyun and the old lady had a good relationship, because the old lady loved him very much.
However, seeing the old lady's condition now, he couldn't be close to her.
He had no hostility towards Gu Ning at all. Instead, he appreciated and admired Gu Ning very much. Therefore, he even disliked the old lady because the old lady had cursed Gu Ning.
However, thinking that the old lady was really nice to him, he couldn't say anything about it, because it would seem ungrateful. Therefore, he could only try his best to avoid her, or he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to control his emotions and quarrel with her.
Today was the Lantern Festival, and Leng Shaoting came back from the army as well. He took Jing Yunyao back to the Family Leng's home.
They talked on the phone at noon, and Leng Shaoting said that it was a pity that he didn't have her by his side during every festival.
Gu Ning then told him that it would be Valentine's Day the day after tomorrow, and she would go back to the capital in the morning. If he was still in the capital the day after tomorrow, they could spend the day together.
Hearing that, Leng Shaoting understood it all of a sudden. If Gu Ning hadn't told him that, he wouldn't have known it.
If nothing special happened the day after tomorrow, he would have stayed in the capital to wait for Gu Ning to come back.
Last time on Valentine's Day, Leng Shaoting had been on a mission, and Gu Ning had been busy too, so she hadn't paid much attention to it.
If they were both free this time, Gu Ning would definitely spend a Valentine's Day with them. Every woman liked romance.
