Chapter 338: Three hundred and thirty-seven, return safely Chapter 338: Three hundred and thirty-seven, return safely Song Yanli dialed the number she had called countless times before, and when she didn’t hear the familiar automated message this time, an excited smile instantly appeared on her face, “It’s connected, it’s connected, huh? Whose phone is ringing?”
Following the direction of the ringing, Song Yanli turned to see Song Yan Ning smiling at her. Instantly, her eyes reddened with emotion. She dropped her phone, leaped up from the sofa, and rushed towards Song Yan Ning, “Xiao Ning!” Thank goodness, Xiao Ning and Brother Yushen are finally back safe and sound.
Ye Qi, seeing Song Yan Ning and Qin Yushen walk in, flashed a happy smile and quickly made his way over to them with Song Yanli.
“Are you okay?” Song Yanli hugged Song Yan Ning, looking at her with concern. This was her first time being so close to Xiao Ning.
“I’m fine, don’t worry,” Song Yan Ning assured her with a smile and a shake of her head.
Song Yanli let out a sigh of relief, and feeling a bit embarrassed that she was still holding onto Song Yan Ning, sheepishly withdrew her arms, “They didn’t give you a hard time, did they?” She couldn’t believe that the Tianji Sect’s people would let them off so easily.
Song Yan Ning shook her head and jostled the small bag in her hand, “They even compensated us with some items for you.”
“I don’t need any items; as long as you both are back safe, that’s enough for me.” If it weren’t for Xiao Ning, Ye Qi and she would have been eternally separated this time. Just how ruthless the Tianji Sect Young Master’s methods were could be seen from how he injured Shuangshuang and the servants outside.
“Yushen, thank you!” Ye Qi reached out and gave Qin Yushen a pat on his shoulder.
“Don’t give me that sort of thanks,” Qin Yushen said with a smile as he playfully punched Ye Qi back. They were brothers, after all; his business was also Ye Qi’s business.
Ye Qi laughed, “How long are you staying in Beijing this time? Got time to hang out?” It had been a long time since the brothers had gathered.
“I won’t be leaving Beijing for now, you pick the place,” Qin Yushen nodded. Lu Tingxuan was in Beijing, and he intended to settle accounts with him properly this time, so as to stop him from continually causing trouble for him and Xiao Ning. The Great Elder had told them that it was because of Lu Tingxuan’s incitement that the Tianji Sect Sect Master had agreed to let his son marry Song Yanli. Otherwise, with Song Yanli’s status, she didn’t match the Tianji Sect’s standards for a spouse.
Ye Qi nodded smilingly, “Ling Feng has got himself a girlfriend, introduced by his parents’ friends, a doctor apparently. How about this time we all bring our girlfriends along? Except for Ling Feng’s girlfriend, we all know each other.”
“Mhm,” Qin Yushen nodded. With Lu Tingxuan in Beijing, he was indeed not at ease letting Xiao Ning be by herself.
“Big brother, where are you guys going? Take me with you, please.” Ye Shuangshuang came down from upstairs, eagerly rushing over after hearing Ye Qi’s words. She had been forced to rest in bed by her parents these past couple of days and was practically growing mold.
“You’re not well yet; you’re not allowed to go,” Ye Qi declined without a second thought.
Walking up to Ye Qi, Ye Shuangshuang wrapped her arm around his, swinging it playfully while pouting, “Big brother, I’m already fine, take me with you, please! I’ve been cooped up at home for days now and it’s driving me crazy.” She was someone who couldn’t stay still, and three days was already her limit. She had come downstairs precisely to sneak out and have some fun.
Ye Qi shook his head helplessly and looked towards Song Yan Ning, “Xiao Ning, could you check on Shuangshuang again?” Shuangshuang had been seriously injured that day, and although she hadn’t felt discomfort the past two days, he was still somewhat worried.
“Of course,” Song Yan Ning nodded with a smile.
Ye Shuangshuang stepped in front of Song Yan Ning, winking playfully at her, “Xiao Ning, you have to check carefully, okay? My happiness is in your hands now.”
“Sure,” Song Yan Ning smiled with a nod. She understood what Ye Shuangshuang meant, but she was being overly concerned; how could there be anything wrong after taking the Healing Medicine she had provided?
