There was also a small rockery on the left side of the courtyard. There were several pots of green plants on the rockery. Under the rockery, there was a lotus pond of about five square meters, but because it was winter, there were no lotuses. There was only a group of carps swimming in the pond. Beside the lotus pond, there was a pavilion. In the pavilion, there was a stone table and four stone stools.
When the weather was warmer, they could feed the fish and relax here.
On the left and right sides, there were red pillars supporting the roof and carved flowers on the eaves. Jade lotuses were blooming and dragons were flying in the sky.
Gu Ning immediately fell in love with this feeling.
This was the front yard, and there was also the backyard.
They continued to move forward and walked through the house. When they opened the back door, Gu Ning's eyes lit up again when she saw the scenery in the backyard.
The yard was classical, delicate, beautiful, and elegant. Gu Ning really liked this place.
"What do you think? Do you like it? "Leng Shaoting couldn't help asking although he already knew the answer from Gu Ning's expression.
"Yeah, I like it," Gu Ning answered with a smile.
Leng Shaoting hugged Gu Ning and said, "It's close to the capital university. When you come to study here, we can live here."
Gu Ning was struck dumb for a second, then refused at once. "No, I'll buy a house by myself."
Hearing that, Leng Shaoting was displeased at once. "No, you have to live here with me."
"No."
"Then I'll live wherever you live." Leng Shaoting didn't argue with Gu Ning, but he had to follow her.
Gu Ning didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She didn't want to discuss this topic with Leng Shaoting. They could talk about it later.
Although Leng Shaoting didn't live in the siheyuan, it had everything and arranged for people to clean it all the time, so it was very clean and could be lived in at any time.
"Ningning, do you want to have a rest in the room, or do you want to go grocery shopping with me?" Leng Shaoting asked.
"I'll go grocery shopping with you," Gu Ning answered without thinking.
"Sure," Leng Shaoting said, then he held Gu Ning's hand and drove her to the supermarket.
When they arrived at the supermarket, the handsome man and beautiful woman attracted the attention of the people around them. Some women were enthralled by Leng Shaoting and made their boyfriends jealous. However, when they saw Leng Shaoting's face and his cold temperament, they felt that they weren't qualified to be jealous.
However, the culprit who caused this series of events did not feel anything. Instead, he asked the girl beside him, "What do you want to eat?"
"I'll take a look first. I'll take whatever I like," Gu Ning said with a smile. In fact, she didn't know what she wanted to eat. Eating wasn't very attractive to her.
Leng Shaoting pushed the cart while Gu Ning looked at the dishes. Whenever she saw something she liked, she would take it.
However, Gu Ning didn't take much, because there were only two of them, and it was only enough for one meal.
After shopping, they went back home. Leng Shaoting told Gu Ning to have a rest, and he went to cook.
During this time, Gu Ning received Gu Man's call.
"Ningning! The Lantern Festival is in three days. When will you come back? "Gu Man asked. Her daughter was always busy outside. She was worried and distressed, but there was nothing she could do.
"I have something to deal with tomorrow, so I'll be back the day after tomorrow," Gu Ning said.
"You're always so busy. I can't help you. You should take care of yourself. It doesn't matter how much money you have, but your health is the most important thing. Do you understand? "Gu Man said.
"I understand. Mom, you should take care of yourself too," Gu Ning said. "Oh, did the Gu family cause you any trouble?"
Hearing that, Gu Man paused for a few seconds, then said, "Your eldest uncle called me. He said that his company is a little short of cash flow now. He asked me to lend you some money, but I declined."
Although he was her eldest brother, Gu Ning had already been bitterly disappointed by him. Therefore, she couldn't forgive him when he was in trouble.
Gu Ning and her mother were rich now, and they lived a good life. If they were still the same as before, they wouldn't care about them at all. They wouldn't.
In addition, based on her understanding of Gu Qinxiang, even if they were rich now, they wouldn't think highly of them. They would only be jealous of them and want to destroy them.
"Great! Don't worry about them. "Gu Ning wasn't kind-hearted. She wouldn't help those who had bullied Gu Man and her mother.
Gu Ning chatted with Gu Man for a while longer, then hung up.
In less than an hour and a half, four dishes and a soup were ready.
Leng Shaoting put the dishes on the dining table, then went to wake Gu Ning up.
Today, Cao Wenxin and Ai Xinyu had an appointment to dine together. Cao Wenxin had an appointment with Gu Ning yesterday, so she didn't dine with Ai Xinyu. Since she was free today, they dined together.
This time, Ai Xinyu invited a female friend named Su Tongnuo.
Su Tongnuo was very beautiful and elegant. She was a B-list actress with excellent acting skills, but she didn't have many acting roles because she was unwilling to sleep with other men. Later, she had annoyed a big boss, so she had been shut out of the entertainment industry.
Su Tongnuo didn't graduate from a professional college. She majored in graphic design when she was in college, and entered the entertainment industry by chance. Now that she had been shut out of the entertainment industry, she relied on Ai Xinyu to introduce some graphic design jobs to her in private.
Ai Xinyu was from a rich family, but she didn't have much power, so she couldn't help Su Tongnuo leave the company.
When the three of them were about to walk into the dining room, they suddenly heard the sound of a robbery. Without hesitation, Cao Wenxin chased after the thief.
Although the thief ran fast, he wasn't as fast as Cao Wenxin. Within 10 meters, Cao Wenxin caught the thief and took the bag back. The middle-aged woman who had her bag stolen was very grateful to Cao Wenxin.
Since she had her bag back, the middle-aged woman didn't want to cause trouble, so she didn't call the police.
Xin Bei and Xu Jingchen, who were sitting by the window in the dining room, happened to see the scene.
At this moment, Xin Bei's bad impression of Cao Wenxin changed.
"I didn't know that Cao Wenxin was also a kung fu master!" Xu Jingchen was surprised, then complimented her, "And she's quite righteous."
"She's righteous, but she's too impulsive," Xin Bei said with disdain.
Xu Jingchen smiled, but didn't say a word.
"They're upstairs now. Shall we invite them to dine together?" Xu Jingchen asked.
"Suit yourself," Xin Bei said in an unkind tone.
"I just noticed that you don't like her very much. Isn't it just a misunderstanding? Do you have to hold a grudge against her? " Xu Jingchen was speechless. Xin Bei had a good temper, but he didn't understand why he would suddenly argue with a woman.
In addition, Xin Bei had been chatting and laughing with him just now, but changed his attitude the moment he saw Cao Wenxin. "Fine, since you don't want to, I won't call them. We can just pretend that we didn't see them later."
