Chapter 162: One hundred sixty-two, appearance Chapter 162: One hundred sixty-two, appearance The phone on the table rang at that moment. Qin Yushen was slightly startled and hurriedly picked up the phone and pressed answer, “Xiao Ning, where are you now?” The girl had finally remembered to call him.
“I’ve already arrived in Beijing. Thank you for calling my grandparents for me these past few days.” Song Yan Ning was on the phone as she walked towards the courtyard house. Her grandparents would surely be delighted to see her.
“Haven’t I told you not to say that word to me? I’m coming to find you now, are you at the courtyard house?” Qin Yushen’s mouth curved into a slight smile.
“Mhm,” Song Yan Ning replied.
Qin Yushen happily pocketed his phone and walked briskly towards the door. He really missed the girl, having not seen her for several days.
Hearing a knock at the door, Li Meixiang stepped forward to open it.
Upon seeing the person outside, Li Meixiang was stunned for a moment before exclaiming with joy, “Xiao Ning, you’re back! Old Yang, Xiao Ning is back, come out quickly.” Without Xiao Ning around these few days, they’d felt lethargic in everything they did.
Yang Lisheng, upon hearing Li Meixiang’s call, felt a surge of elation and quickly ran out from inside. Xiao Ning was back, he hadn’t misheard, had he?
As he ran out of the house and saw it was truly Xiao Ning, Yang Lisheng stepped forward and hugged her, “You girl, you’ve really had me and your grandmother worried to death.”
Seeing the joy on her grandparents’ faces, Song Yan Ning felt warmth in her heart. The feeling of returning to her grandparents’ side was wonderful. “Grandpa, I call you every day, don’t I?” She trusted Qin Yushen; since he had promised her, he would surely help her.
“It’s not the same,” Yang Lisheng said, laughing as he set Song Yan Ning down and affectionately ruffled her hair. Not seeing her, they were worried sick; it was only when she was back, by their side, that they could truly feel at ease.
“Where are Xiang and Mr. Liu?” Li Meixiang inquired when she didn’t see Xiang or Liu Qingshan.
“Xiang, come out,” Song Yan Ning called.
In a flash of a figure, Xiang immediately appeared in front of Li Meixiang and Yang Lisheng.
“Uncle Liu has gone back,” Song Yan Ning did not tell her grandparents that Xiang had actually been protecting them all along. Otherwise, it would be difficult for her to go out again next time.
“Mr. Liu, too, should drop by to sit with us,” Li Meixiang said with a laugh, shaking her head. She felt that although Xiang had accompanied Xiao Ning, Liu Qingshan must have also put in a lot of effort. If he came over, they would like to thank him.
“Uncle Liu will come when he has time. Grandpa, Grandma, I’m a bit hungry,” Song Yan Ning said pitifully. Only in front of her grandparents could she act so spoiled and carefree.
“Grandma will get you something to eat. Have a seat and rest,” Li Meixiang then remembered that Song Yan Ning had just returned.
“Mm,” Song Yan Ning nodded, walked over to a tree, and sat down beside the stone table.
Not long after she sat down, there was a knock on the door.
Yang Lisheng stepped forward to open the door and saw Qin Yushen, his eyes showing a hint of pleasant surprise, “Xiao Shen, come in and sit, Xiao Ning has just gotten back.” He really liked the boy.
“Okay, Grandpa Yang!” Qin Yushen passed the gift he brought to Yang Lisheng, “This is something my grandfather asked me to bring to you.”
“Please thank your grandfather for me!” Yang Lisheng said with a smile, accepting the gift.
Qin Yushen entered the courtyard and saw Song Yan Ning eating with her back towards him. He smiled faintly, “Xiao Ning.”
Song Yan Ning turned her head, smiled at Qin Yushen, “Come over and sit.”
The moment Song Yan Ning turned her head, Qin Yushen stood frozen in place. The eye-blinding technique on Xiao Ning’s face might fool others, but he could see it at a glance; so this was the real her.
Song Yan Ning, feeling a bit warm in the face from Qin Yushen’s stare, coughed lightly and turned away to continue eating. She knew Qin Yushen could see her true appearance.
