Footsteps came clicking and clacking; in an instant, he was in front of her, pulling Ruan Liuzheng's hand, "Mom, it's time to eat! Xiangxiang set out bowls and chopsticks for you, come quickly!"
She glanced at Ning Zhiqian, holding Ning Xiang's hand as they walked away. Forget it! She knew the Ning Family well! Since she was here, she might as well be forthright! Being coy would only make it seem like she had something to hide!
From a distance, she noticed Ning Shouzheng wasn't at the dining table. In a low voice, she asked Ning Xiang, "Grandfather isn't back?" During her years at the Ning Family, Ning Shouzheng's situation had been awkward at home; Wen Yi harbored a grudge for his foolish actions, and Zhiqian couldn't forgive him.
"Yeah! Grandpa went fishing in the countryside! Mom, when Grandpa comes back with fish, I'll bring some for you to eat!" After finishing, he seemed to rethink, pouting, "Mom, I better not disturb you after all. I'll have Dad bring them to you."
