Chapter 1844 - Stay with You Tonight

Once they entered the manor, they saw the sea of flowers, which was breath-taking.

Although some flowers that didn’t bloom in September weren’t in blossom, all the different species of flowers were planted in different areas according to the months they bloomed, so it didn’t affect the beauty of the scene.

Flowers that bloomed in August and September included osmanthus, jasmine, chrysanthemum, rose and so on.

“Does it look good?” Leng Shaoting asked Gu Ning after entering the manor.

“Of course, it’s amazing.” Gu Ning said.

“This is a private manor built by my dad specially for my mom. My dad also proposed to my mom here. After that, my family often came here for vacations because its backyard is as beautiful as a fairyland. In summer, it’s very cool. I didn’t understand why my dad made this place into a classical look until I found out my mom’s real identity. My mother comes from the cultivation world, and the buildings in that world are all ancient buildings, so she’s used to the style. She feels familiar with the style too,” Leng Shaoting said.

The car stopped in front of the main building, where they got out. Leng Shaoting held Gu Ning’s hand walking inside.

Outside the door, before Leng Shaoting’s car came in, there were already three servants, a man and two women, waiting for them. They were the people who stayed here and took care of the manor, including the middle-aged man who opened the gate for them earlier.

“Welcome home, Lord Leng.”

The three of them respectfully greeted Leng Shaoting.

“You can go to do your job. We’ll dine here today,” Leng Shaoting said.

“Sure.” They obeyed his order.

As Leng Shaoting took Gu Ning in, they walked away to do their work.

Although they were surprised that Leng Shaoting brought a girl over and was holding her hand, they didn’t ask about it.

They had served in this manor for more than 20 years. They were there from when Leng Yuanhan just built it. So even though they rarely saw Leng Shaoting, they knew a little about his character. They were aware that he always kept a distance away from females.

Because of that, they were even worried that Leng Shaoting would die alone.

However, Leng Shaoting now brought a girl over. There was no need to guess or ask, she must be his girlfriend.

Although they spent little time with Leng Shaoting and they had no affection towards each other, they had been a master and servants for more than 20 years, so they naturally hoped that Leng Shaoting could live a happy life.

Leng Shaoting was cold to other people, but he never treated them badly. Instead, they received excellent treatment.

Leng Shaoting offered them very generous salaries, and also gave each of them a house. Precisely because of the good treatment, they insisted on staying to take care of this manor to the best of their ability.

They wouldn’t leave unless they had no ability to work any longer or Leng Shaoting didn’t want them anymore.

“We can have a tour inside first, then we can hang out,” Leng Shaoting said.

“Great,” Gu Ning replied.

Although she had come here once, she had sneaked inside, so she didn’t have a chance to enjoy a tour. Therefore, this time, she had to enjoy herself.

Leng Shaoting took Gu Ning for a tour around the main building, then went to the backyard, which was the most beautiful part of the whole manor.

“It’s so beautiful!” Once Gu Ning entered the backyard, she couldn’t help but praise it. Perhaps because she was in a different mood this time, she somehow felt that it was even more beautiful than the last time she came here, even though in fact there was no change.

“When the peach blossoms bloom, it’ll be more beautiful,” Leng Shaoting said.

“Right, I must come here again at that time,” Gu Ning said.

“What is mine is yours, so you can come anytime and live as long as you want.” Leng Shaoting looked at Gu Ning with love.

“Isn’t this a gift from your father to your mother?” Gu Ning asked. This place was quite meaningful to Jing Yunyao. If she came and stayed here for a long time, it would be inappropriate.

“My mother’s is mine too! We’re a family anyway. We don’t need to separate from each other,” Leng Shaoting said.

Although Leng Yuanhan gave this manor to Jing Yunyao, it was already under Leng Shaoting’s name because Jing Yunyao had an accident 16 years ago.

Jing Yunyao had returned and regained her memories, but she had no intention of making her real identity public.

Because she was a cultivator and could live forever, it would inevitably cause unnecessary trouble if other people saw that Jing Yunyao’s appearance didn’t change after more than a dozen years.

Therefore, they could simply let outsiders believe that she was dead. If she needed an ID card to take planes, she could continue to use Shen Yao’s identity.

Moreover, the age on Shen Yao’s ID card should be younger, so she could avoid some trouble for the time being.

One day, they would all withdraw from the mortals’ world. If people noticed that their appearances hadn’t changed in more than dozens of years, it would definitely cause trouble.

“Does Grandpa Leng know that mother has already regained her memories?” Gu Ning asked.

“Not yet, I’ll take her to the Leng family’s old house tomorrow. We’ll talk about it then.” Leng Shaoting said.

“Great,” Gu Ning replied.

Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting went back to the front yard after visiting the backyard. It was past 6 pm at this time and the servants had already prepared the food, but the food hadn’t been served yet because Leng Shaoting hadn’t returned. They were afraid that the food might get cold soon.

Leng Shaoting took Gu Ning to the dining hall and told the servants to serve the food.

The furniture here was also classical, and made people feel like they had traveled to ancient times!

After eating, the sky was completely dark, but there were street lights in the yard, so Leng Shaoting took Gu Ning for a long walk before going back.

“I’m going back to the base tomorrow afternoon. I don’t know when I can come back again,” Leng Shaoting said full of resentment and reluctance.

They had been separated for so many days, and finally saw each other today, but they could only stay with each other for a few hours before they had to separate again, which was quite upsetting.

It was all because of his cultivation. If he didn’t cultivate, he would have a lot of time to be with Gu Ning. However, since he was a cultivator, it was impossible not to cultivate. He still had powerful enemies ahead, so he had to keep on cultivating to improve himself.

“Um, I won’t go back to school tonight. I can stay with you,” Gu Ning said with a smile on her lips.

She wasn’t accommodating Leng Shaoting, she really hated to separate from him so quickly as well. They indeed rarely got together these days.

Anyway, she had already asked for leave, so it didn’t matter even if she didn’t go back at night.

“Great!” Leng Shaoting smiled very proudly.

Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting then went back to the villa they had stayed in during the day. Leng Shaoting would send her back to school tomorrow morning.

Because Jing Yunyao stayed in Mountain River Garden, it was inconvenient for them to go there. After all Leng Shaoting wanted her to stay with him for the purpose of doing bad things.

However, on their way back, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting saw several gangsters on the sidewalk punching and kicking someone.
