Chapter 1299: Chapter 1319

The two of them kept at it until late at night. Rong You urged Bai Ning to hurry up and get some rest, and only then did Bai Ning reluctantly go back to her room.

Lying on the bed, the corners of her mouth were still lifted even with her eyes closed. She felt that days like this were really so blissful!

She’d lived this long without ever knowing what happiness was. Her life had always been dark, until this last attack and escape for her life, when she met Rong You and Qiqi. Only then did she realize that life could be so different.

If she could stay, live this ordinary, simple life forever, never having to kill and be killed again, that would be perfect.

Tonight, Bai Ning once again enjoyed a sweet sleep with No nightmares.

...

The wedding date for Qiao Jiezhe and Mi Huan had already been set. Lately the Qiao Family parents were busy with their son’s wedding, having to prepare everything: the marital home, renovation, betrothal gifts and so on.

Qiao Qiqi would also squeeze in time to help look around or buy things, but most of it was still left to Dad and Mom to handle. Now the couple didn’t have much else going on, living a semi-retired life, so having something to keep them busy was actually pretty good.

When Rong Lening got back home, Elder Rong immediately started complaining, "I already told you I have a place that can be used as a wedding house for Jize, and you still insisted on buying one. Is my place not good enough?"

Elder Rong was like an old child now, getting more and more childish. The whole Family was basically just humoring the old man these days.

"Dad, of course not. Rong Family’s things belong to Rong Family. Besides, our Family can well afford to buy a villa." Rong Lening took out the snacks she’d bought for her dad on the way to soothe him.

"What do you mean ’Rong Family’s things’? The Rong Family’s property, you and Qiqi and Jize all have a share! What’s wrong with assigning a villa to Jize? I’d like to see who dares have an opinion!" Elder Rong said angrily.

"Of course you’re the one in charge of Rong Family. Eat something first, we can talk about this after." Rong Lening kept smoothing her father’s feathers.

Once Elder Rong started eating, he stopped bringing it up. He actually just wanted to leave something for each child and grandchild. Jize was his blood-related grandson, so of course he wanted to give Jize something too. A villa was nothing to him.

Of course, in his heart he was more partial to his biological grandson and Qiqi, so sometimes the old man did feel he’d shortchanged Qiao Jiezhe a bit.

Rong Lening didn’t see it that way. She just didn’t want her children taking anything from Rong Family.

She herself wouldn’t take it either—the Family property was already more than enough!

After soothing her own dad, Rong Lening finally went back to her room to rest. Now her life was mainly over at Rong Family, keeping her father company. The years of absence made her feel very guilty toward him; she just wanted to spend more time with him.

...

Lately Rong Yuan hadn’t been able to find Rong You anywhere, so he went straight to look for Qiao Qiqi.

Seeing her big brother, Qiao Qiqi smiled and asked, "Big Brother, are you here to treat me to a meal? Just in time, I’m hungry."

"What, you thought I’d let you pay?" Rong Yuan took her out for lunch and asked where Rong You had gone. Qiao Qiqi briefly filled him in on Sixth Brother’s situation.

She didn’t mention the hot pot restaurant for now.

"Not bad, Little sixth is moving pretty fast. I’ve got to support him on this." Hearing that his little brother liked a girl and was working hard to chase her, Rong Yuan was of course happy.

The Rong Family brothers all seemed to have zero talent for romance. If Qiqi hadn’t pushed Yao Yao at him with all her might, he wouldn’t have dated, much less had kids.

Now he was about to be the father of three.

But the younger brothers still didn’t have a single one with a settled love life, which made him pretty anxious too.
