After the meal, they went back home.
When they got home, Gu Man was surprised to see Gu Ning holding two boxes of gifts. "Ningning, what are these?"
"They're my friend's New Year's gifts." Gu Ning put the boxes on the tea table, then opened them and took out the gifts inside.
When Gu Man saw the gifts in the boxes, he couldn't help exclaiming, "Ningning, your friend is so generous!"
Not a single one of these things was worthless.
"Yeah! He's a very good friend, "Gu Ning said. She didn't explain further, because it wasn't easy to explain.
After seeing the gifts, Gu Man suddenly thought of something and said, "Oh, the old lady is paralyzed."
Speaking of that, Gu Man wasn't sad, but he was still in a good mood. After all, the old lady was his biological mother.
Gu Ning, however, didn't feel sorry for her mother. Instead, she was happy to see her mother's condition. In that case, Gu Man and Gu Qing wouldn't be able to cause trouble to her mother.
Ever since Gu Ning returned to City F, she was always busy with work, so she didn't have time to talk with Gu Man. Therefore, she didn't ask Gu Man about the Tang Yunfan.
However, the New Year's Eve was coming tomorrow, and Gu Ning didn't want to talk about it now.
The next day, it was the New Year's Eve.
In the early morning, Gu Ning talked with Leng Shaoting on the phone for about half an hour.
Leng Shaoting was in his own apartment now, and he wouldn't go to the Gu House for the reunion dinner until the afternoon.
Thinking of Gu Ning's close relationship with the Gu Family, Gu Ning felt sorry for him. If he hadn't been close to Master Leng, she would have invited him to spend the New Year's Eve with her.
In the morning, Gu Ning called Gao Yi and Qiao Ya. Jiang Xu's family also gathered in Gu Ning's home for the New Year's Eve.
After lunch, they began to prepare for the reunion dinner.
Leng Shaoting had lunch with Xu Jingchen, Si Ming, and a few other teammates from Beijing. Leng Shaoting didn't have time to gather with them after the New Year, so he gathered with them in advance.
They knew that Leng Shaoting was anxious to see Gu Ning after the New Year, so they all expressed their understanding.
It was just that some people expressed that they were sad because they didn't have a girlfriend.
This person was naturally Xu Jingchen.
Si Ming and Qiu Yuxin had already developed a relationship. Although they hadn't officially dated, it was only a matter of time.
Beijing, Family Leng's old residence.
Today, Family Leng, old and young, were all gathered together. Everyone was sitting in the living room, talking about everything under the sun, except for Leng Shaoting.
Although Leng Shaoting's family didn't have a good relationship with Leng Shaoting's family, they still got along well, especially in front of Master Leng.
"It's almost 4 pm. Why isn't Shao Shaoting back yet?" Leng Shaoxun couldn't help but ask Leng Shaoting.
Once Leng Shaoting was mentioned, Family Leng's family members felt uncomfortable, but they didn't dare to say anything.
Leng Changzhi's happy voice sounded from outside the door. "Lord Leng is back!"
Hearing that, Leng Shaoxun abruptly stood up and ran out in a hurry. When he saw Leng Shaoting, he said, "Hi, Shao Shaoting, why are you so late? I thought you wouldn't come back for the New Year!"
"I was delayed by something," Leng Shaoting said.
When they walked into the living room, Leng Shaoting greeted the elders. "Grandpa, Uncle Leng, Aunt Leng, Uncle Leng, Aunt Leng."
"Hi, Shao Ting is back," they all said. Master Leng was only enthusiastic and happy, while Leng Yuanqian and Jiang Shuyuan were indifferent. Leng Yuanzhen and Yu Yin weren't enthusiastic, but they were also kind.
"Hi, Shaoting, you're back!" Leng Shaoming greeted him too. His attitude wasn't as indifferent as his parents', but polite and distant.
"Hi, Shao Ting," Leng Shaoxi said with great respect.
Leng Shaojia, on the other hand, didn't greet him at all.
"Shao Ting, it's not dinner time yet. Can you teach me something?" Leng Shaoxun begged at once.
Before Leng Shaoting could say a word, Master Leng snapped at him. "It's the New Year festival. You don't need to teach him anything! All of you, sit down obediently. "
Hearing Master Leng's words, Leng Shaoxun didn't dare to say a word, and sat down obediently.
"Shao Ting, come and sit here," Master Leng waved at Leng Shaoting at once, and told him to sit by his side.
Leng Shaoting walked over and sat down by Master Leng's side. He cared about Leng Shaoting a lot.
Seeing Master Leng caring about Leng Shaoting so much, Leng Shaoting's family felt quite uncomfortable.
Leng Shaojia couldn't help but speak up for his older brother. "Grandpa, you're so unfair! My older brother has been away from home for a long time, but you don't seem to care about him so much!"
Leng Shaoming didn't work in the capital, but in a county near the capital. Although the county wasn't far from the capital, he rarely had time to come back.
Leng Shaoming was an outstanding man himself, and with the help of his family's influence, he became the head of a county at the age of 25. More than that, he was going to be transferred to a third-tier city near the capital next year, and could be transferred back to the capital in a few years.
Of course, no matter how outstanding Leng Shaoming was, he couldn't be compared with Leng Shaoting. He was only half a year older than Leng Shaoming, but he was already a major general, and the youngest major general in history.
"Shaojia, what are you talking about? Since when did grandpa stop caring about me? Don't talk nonsense if you don't know anything! "Leng Shaoming was displeased, and immediately criticized Shaojia. Master Leng treated Leng Shaoting very well, and although Shaojia didn't like it, he didn't want Master Leng to think that he was mean and selfish, so he never showed any dissatisfaction.
Leng Shaojia said that just to make Shaojia hate him.
"It's true!" Leng Shaojia didn't know what Leng Shaoming was thinking, and argued.
"Shaojia, no one will think that you're mute if you don't talk," Leng Yuanqian also criticized. Leng Shaojia shouldn't have said that.
Even though Leng Shaoming and Leng Yuanqian both criticized Leng Shaojia, Master Leng couldn't stop himself from being dissatisfied with Leng Shaojia. He looked at Shaojia with annoyance, and said sternly, "You're always the one who has the most opinions. Do you think that your life is too comfortable, and you're looking for trouble?"
Master Leng didn't care about Leng Shaoming as much as Leng Shaoting, but Leng Shaoting had lost his parents when he was young, and no one cared about him.
However, Leng Shaojia's family didn't care about his nephew, and they even schemed against him. The more they schemed against Leng Shaoting, the better Leng Shaoting would treat him. Otherwise, they would think that Leng Shaoting was easy to bully.
Leng Shaojia didn't want to admit defeat, but he didn't dare to argue with Master Leng, so he lowered his head and remained silent.
At this time, Jiang Shuyuan didn't dare to defend Leng Shaojia either.
