"Don't talk nonsense. I don't look down on Senior Shangguan. What do you mean by saying that?" Jing Yunyan questioned him angrily when he heard that.
He disliked Shangguan Yang because Jing Jining and Shanghai Yang knew each other, and Jing Yunyao and Shanghai Yang knew each other. If it hadn't been for Shanghai Yang, they wouldn't have been afraid of Jing Yunyao.
However, even though he disliked Shangguan Yang, he didn't disrespect him. Precisely because he respected him, he stopped Jing Jining from seeing him.
Therefore, even though he disliked Shangguan Yang, he couldn't let other people spread the news. It wouldn't be good if Shangguan Yang held a grudge against him.
Therefore, there happened to be an outsider here who was sent by Shangguan Yang, so Jing Yunyan tried his best to deny it.
"If not, why did you stop me?" asked Jing Jining even though he already knew the answer.
"I didn't stop you on purpose. Our family head really wants to see you," said Jing Yunyan with a straight face, as if he was telling the truth.
"I've been in the Jing family for a long time, but our family head never wants to see me. Senior Shangguan came to see me today, and our family head wants to see me? It's too much of a coincidence! "said Jing Jining with sarcasm.
Seeing that, Yangping and the others realized that their family head didn't want to see Jing Jining at all. Jing Yunyan just stopped Jing Jining on purpose.
Although they didn't know why Jing Yunyan stopped Jing Jining, since Shangguan Yang sent them to see Jing Jining, they had to listen to Shangguan Yang.
Therefore, Yangping said, "Master Jing, Senior Shangguan also wants to see Master Jining. If Master Jining doesn't go, Senior Shangguan will come to see him."
"…" Hearing that, Jing Yunyan was struck dumb. If Shangguan Yang came and didn't see Jing Jining, it would be hard to explain.
"If that's the case, I can go, but I'll accompany you." Jing Yunyan realized that he couldn't avoid it, so he had to let him go, but he had to go with them. If he was there, Jing Jining wouldn't be able to chat with Shangguan Yang.
"I'm fine with anything, but if Senior Shangguan asks you to leave, then it's none of my business." Jing Jining didn't stop them, because he didn't want to continue arguing with Jing Yunyan. It didn't matter whether Jing Yaorong told them that Jing Yunyao already knew about Jing Yunyao's existence.
Even if she told them the truth, it wouldn't change anything. If she didn't tell them the truth, they wouldn't be able to do anything to Jing Yunyao even if they found her.
Jing Yunyan didn't know whether Shangguan Yang would drive him away or not, but he had to go with him now.
After that, Jing Yunyao followed Jing Jining to the Shangguan house.
Before Jing Jining came, Gu Ning and Shangguan Yang had already walked around the Shangguan house. It wasn't very large, but it wasn't small either. It occupied an area of over a thousand square meters in total.
It was already very rich in the cultivation world.
Although it was only a third of the size of the houses of the four dominant families, Shangguan Yang and the others didn't have that many people. In the four dominant families, there were around fifty or eighty people living in each house.
As for Shangguan Yang and the others, it was enough for them to live in, let alone seven or eight people.
Because the houses in the backyard had two floors, there were enough bedrooms.
Although it couldn't accommodate so many people, the layout was like that, so it didn't matter if it was empty.
Gu Ning and Shangguan Yang went back to the living room after walking around. After drinking tea for a while, Jing Jining and the others came.
When they saw Jing Yunyan, both Gu Ning and Shangguan Yang were surprised. They knew that Jing Jining didn't have a good relationship with Jing Yunyan, so they didn't expect that they would come together.
But what was the meaning of them coming together?
No matter what happened, Gu Ning and Shangguan Yang didn't think that Jing Jining brought Jing Yunyan here voluntarily. In that case, Jing Yunyan must know that they were coming, so he insisted on coming with them.
Anyway, since they were already here, they couldn't drive them away.
"Nice to meet you, Senior Shangguan."
"Nice to meet you, Senior Shangguan."
Jing Jining and Jing Yunyao came to Shangguan Yang and bowed to him.
"Sure, have a seat," said Shangguan Yang. Because of Jing Yunyan's presence, he wasn't cold to them.
"Thank you, Senior Shangguan," said Jing Jining and Jing Yunyan. They walked to the side and sat down. Because there were no servants here, there was no one to serve them tea.
"Senior Shangguan, we're leaving now," said Yangping. It wasn't appropriate for them to stay here.
"Thank you so much," said Jing Jining. Shangguan Yang thanked them. He didn't take it for granted that they would work for him just because he was respected.
"You're welcome, Senior Shangguan. It's our honor to be of help to you," said Jing Jining and the others, then they left.
"Jining! This courtyard is well built. Thank you for your hard work, "said Shangguan Yang. He was very satisfied with the courtyard and thanked Jing Jining for his hard work.
"It's nothing. I just give some suggestions and supervise the workers at most. It doesn't take me much effort," said Jing Jining with embarrassment. Jing Jining felt a little embarrassed, because he indeed didn't do any hard work. He left it to the workers to do.
"Even if you're a supervisor, it's very time-consuming. I'm afraid that it'll affect your business. " Said Shangguan Yang. He indeed felt a little guilty, but Jing Jining was from the cultivation world, so it couldn't be more appropriate for him to do it.
After all, he couldn't really ask Tiandaozong to build a house for him. If he did that, it would seem that he was greedy, because they wouldn't accept his money.
If he let Jing Jining be in charge of it, he would directly give him money and let him make the arrangements.
Jing Jining, of course, wouldn't take a cent of the money, because Shangguan Yang was his friend, so it was his duty to help him.
Therefore, the money would be used for land, materials, and labor.
"Senior Shangguan, didn't you tell me that you're my friend and that I don't need to be polite to you? Why are you being so polite to me now? Did you lie to me when you said that you're my friend? " Said Jing Jining, pretending to be aggrieved. He was really willing to help, because helping Shangguan Yang was also helping Leng Shaoting.
Helping Leng Shaoting was no different from doing his own thing, so there was no need for him to help.
"Alright, alright, let's stop talking about it. If we keep talking about it, we'll really become outsiders." Shangguan Yang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he stopped talking about it.
