Chapter 1086 - Severing Relations
Chapter 1086: Severing Relations
She came back and became Nangong Sheng, she did not know what was going on. The storyline was reset and everyone’s memories were changed again. Everything started anew.
She was the only one who remembered everything. She grew up in the Nangong family and was pampered by her mother, grandfather, and uncle. She was not sent away by her grandfather, had no adoptive mother, and did not become an orphan. Of course, she did not know anyone from the Huo family.
In this new space, her father was not dead, and nothing happened to her grandfather. Everything was back to square one.
She clearly remembered that the cross that allowed her to transmigrate here was taken away by Ji Xing. Did that mean that Ji Xing had transmigrated with her?
If he had transmigrated here, where would he be now? Was he looking for Song Yiyan? She needed to find Ji Xing first to know what she should do next.
“What are you waiting for?” Nangong Lengyu felt that her daughter had been acting weird ever since she woke up. She got her off the bed. “Come and eat.”
Nangong Lun walked in holding his phone. As he walked, he said, “Old Song called me and said that something happened to the Song family. We don’t have to go over anymore.”
Nangong Lengyu frowned. “What happened?”
Nangong Lun said, “I don’t know what happened to that child Yanyan. She ran away from the marriage and even said that she wanted to sever ties with the Song family. From now on, they have nothing to do with each other.”
Ling Sheng bit her chopsticks as she listened to Nangong Lun talk about the Song family and Song Yiyan. Half a year ago, Song Yiyan and Dongfang Fan had gotten engaged. The wedding date was tomorrow, and their family had originally planned to fly back to attend the wedding today.
She didn’t expect an accident to happen when she was on the hot air balloon. This delayed her schedule and her departure time was changed to midnight. She had to make it for the wedding.
“Yanyan is usually very obedient and understanding. She’s already engaged, so why did she suddenly go back on her word? If she did that, the Song and Dongfang families would turn against each other. How are they going to clean up this mess?” Nangong Lun sighed and fretted over the Song family. He picked up a chicken drumstick for Ling Sheng and smiled lovingly. “Sheng Sheng, eat this.”
Ling Sheng subconsciously moved her bowl and saw the old man’s expression stiffen. She then realized that she was no longer Ling Sheng, but Nangong Sheng.
The old man in front of her was not the stubborn old man who was unwilling to let his daughter give birth. Instead, he doted on his daughter and granddaughter a lot.
Nangong Lun looked at his granddaughter with a hurt expression and sought her opinion. “Sheng Sheng, can we get the doctor to take a look at you?”
He felt that ever since Sheng Sheng woke up, her attitude towards him had changed. She was as distant as a stranger, making him feel uncomfortable.
“There’s no need.” Ling Sheng tried her best to be normal, but her mind was still in a mess after so many memories were intertwined. She could not maintain a calm heart. Looking at the elder’s obviously disappointed expression, she calmed herself down. “Grandpa, where is Yanyan now?”
Song Yiyan had run away from the marriage and cut ties with the Song family. Did that mean that she had regained her memory? Was she with Ji Xing now? Finding the two of them might solve all her doubts.
However, she wasn’t familiar with Song Yiyan in this world. It was only recently that she got engaged. Her mother and grandfather received an invitation from the Song family to bring her to the wedding.
When Nangong Lun heard her call him ‘Grandpa’, he finally felt relieved and was as happy as a child. “Grandpa doesn’t know about this either. If you want to know, Grandpa will ask for you.”
“Why would that child Yanyan suddenly sever ties with her family?” Nangong Lengyu was also puzzled.
She had seen that child a few times. She was a gentle, kind and obedient girl who could be said to be overly docile. She listened to everything her parents said.
Nangong Lun hurriedly gave Old Master Song a call to ask about Song Yiyan’s whereabouts. Old Master Song was currently on a warpath as he didn’t know where his granddaughter was. He canceled all her credit cards and blocked off all the avenues that she could seek help from.
“This Old Master Song is too much. No matter what, she’s still his biological granddaughter. How could he go overboard? In my opinion, that Dongfang brat isn’t a good person either.” After Nangong Lun hung up the phone, he snorted angrily. “Yanyan is such an obedient girl. If she wasn’t forced into a corner, would she run away from the marriage?”
“Dad, you have never seen the young master of the Dongfang family, how do you know that he is not a good person?” Nangong Lengyu shook her head helplessly as he was infuriated by the matters of another family. “However, Uncle Song has gone a little overboard. How can a girl live outside by herself without anything?”
“Even if they make her unable to live outside, won’t she still have to go home and admit her mistake in the end?” Nangong Lun snorted. “I wonder how this matter will end. With this commotion, the Song and Dongfang families can be considered to have become enemies. Tell me, those old farts, why did they have to create a marriage alliance?”
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw his daughter’s expression change. He quickly pursed her lips and shut his mouth obediently, not saying a word. He was also an old man who would not die. If it wasn’t for the marriage alliance back then, his daughter wouldn’t have stayed single to raise Sheng Sheng up until now. No matter what happened, she didn’t fall in love or married anyone else, it made his heart ache.
Ling Sheng did not get Song Yiyan’s contact information. She did not dare to mention Huo Ci in front of Nangong Lengyu for the time being. Based on the current situation, as long as she mentioned it, the relationship between the two of them would definitely be strained. Thus, she secretly returned to China without telling anyone.
The first thing Ling Sheng did when she returned to China was to find a private investigator to inquire about Xiaoqi’s whereabouts. She squatted at the entrance of the kindergarten, feeling very uneasy as she waited for her son to finish school.
It was the most expensive kindergarten in Beijing with the best teaching standards. After school, luxury cars were parked at the entrance. It was similar to a large-scale car show.
Finally, the children finished school.
Ling Sheng was holding a skewer of candied haws in her hand like a huge balloon. She stood at the door like all the parents who waited to pick up their children and craned her neck to look into the kindergarten. Unlike the other parents, she was feeling very nervous.
The story in the book had been reset, so they could not remember everything that had happened before. Like her mother and the rest, her son definitely would not remember her. Thinking of this, her heart felt stifled.
An Yan came to pick the young master up from school. He got out of the car and walked to the back respectfully. He opened the car door and looked at the woman in the car. “Miss Luo, please.”
Luo Xin nodded and got out of the car in her high heels. As a public figure, it was not appropriate for her to show her face in public. She was wearing sunglasses that covered most of her face. Dressed in a set of high-end clothes, she looked elegant, attracting the attention of many people around her.
From the corner of his eye, An Yan glanced at the woman beside him. Luo Xin, the eldest daughter of the Luo family, was a new star in the entertainment industry. She was Young Master Gu Shen’s friend and was very well liked by him. The Third Master had tacitly allowed her free access to the Gu family’s residence to take care of the young master.
Not far away, the young master had already come out while carrying his school bag. He was dressed in a suit and had a handsome little face. When he walked out, he seemed to have seen something. His eyes lit up and he called out excitedly, “Mommy.”
An Yan was stunned for a moment. The young master then came running towards him. He subconsciously looked at Luo Xin beside him and found that she was also surprised for a moment. Immediately after, she looked towards the young master with a gentle expression and a proud smile.
Luo Xin thought that the child was calling for her, causing her to feel excited and happy at the same time. After a year of companionship, she had not wasted her time and energy to please him as this was the first time he had called her Mommy. As long as the child acknowledged her, that man, who doted on his son so much, would definitely acknowledge her and marry her.
However, at the next moment, An Yan and Luo Xin stood rooted to the ground in shock. They widened their eyes in disbelief and watched as the child fell head first into the arms of the woman who was holding a balloon and a stick of candied hawthorn..
