After the group wear, I became the group darling of the big guys

Shi Ning planned to wait until the storm was completely settled by the Gojo family before letting Funina return to the office.

As for Xiao, he has a cold exterior but a warm heart. Although it is not easy to tell, he is still quite worried about sorcerers like Maki and Gomaki Satoru who have experienced life and death. When Shi Ning is not in danger, he spends all his time in the training ground training with these children.

The high school's real teacher, Gojo Satoru, came over at noon the next day.

Shi Ning had just finished training, changed her clothes and came out, when she heard a knock on the window. She twitched her lips, looked at the huge Gojo Satoru squatting in front of her window, sighed, and opened the window.

"Gojo-sensei, this room has a door, there's no need to go through the window."

"Going through the door is so rigid, I don't want to." As expected, the willful strongest sorcerer rejected her immediately, "Let's go, let's go visit the Aso family~"

Gojo Satoru raised his voice and grabbed Shi Ning by the collar. The next second, the two of them appeared outside a magnificent and luxurious old house.

This time, she didn't feel any discomfort from teleporting, as if she was still standing in the technical college dormitory, and she was even a little bit unresponsive.

So - why was it so uncomfortable when I teleported for the first time? Shi Ning looked at Gojo Satoru dimly, expecting him to answer his silent question.

Gojo Satoru directly put his arm around Shi Ning's shoulders and said bluntly to the sorcerer who came out of the mansion after hearing the noise: "We want to see Ningguang, please go and notify them."

With that, he swaggered into the mansion, showing no awareness of trespassing.

However, the sorcerer of the Aso family did not have any other objections. He just lowered his head and walked in ahead of the two of them.

Shi Ning saw all of this and lowered her head thoughtfully.

Gojo Satoru, the most powerful sorcerer, is still regarded as extremely important by these noble families. Regardless of whether it is sincere or not, this respect is questionable in the face of interests.

"Miss Ningguang is waiting for you two inside. Please come this way." A gentle woman with a pretty face came out of the main room. She was wearing a kimono and had lowered eyebrows. She had a temperament similar to that of a Yamato Nadeshiko, but it made Shi Ning frown.

As a good young person in the 21st century, she did not quite understand why the Jujutsu family abandoned modern technology and followed red tape. After all, modern technology was very convenient.

When she was in technical college, she discovered that there were very few modern things in the technical college, which was the closest to modern people, not to mention these aristocratic families. All the scenes along the way were retro, including this house and the people here. For a moment, Shi Ning felt like she had traveled through time again.

The meeting place Ningguang chose was different from the old one before. It was more like a newly built building in recent years, a white two-story villa. The maid pushed open the door and led the two into the room, then she withdrew.

Shi Ning followed behind Gojo Satoru and looked at the decoration inside the small western-style building.

Modern, even too modern compared to before, but this kind of decoration is the most common decoration for a modern family.

Ningguang was wearing a cheongsam and sitting on a chair in the reception room. Shi Ning pushed open the door, and the moment his eyes met the woman's, he immediately relaxed his body, exhaled, and sat next to Ningguang.

Gojo Satoru raised his eyebrows at Shi Ning's natural movements, but said nothing. He sat opposite Ningguang, at a table filled with desserts.

"Ningguang, how have you been recently?" Since she was his classmate, Shi Ning no longer felt any sense of distance. He leaned heavily on Ningguang, rubbed her neck affectionately, and asked in a low voice.

"Not bad. Ningning must have been very busy recently." Ningguang said with a smile.

"I'm very tired. Really tired. It's tiring to become stronger, it's tiring to fight, it's tiring to exorcise cursed spirits. I need to recharge and rest—" Shi Ning complained in a low voice. That attitude was as if he had met someone very familiar. No, not a good friend, but more like a companion.

Gojo Satoru leaned back and observed Ningguang and Shi Ning with interest.

The last time Shi Ning was with his companions, he was busy, and what Six Eyes observed was only superficial. When they were in technical high school, Xiao, Funina and Shi Ning always acted separately and basically never got together, let alone being so close.

But now, after a closer look, I can indeed detect the problem.

The unique atmosphere, the intimacy that is different from others, the blurred boundaries between friends, and the care for each other in their eyes - more like companions than friends, companions who will never betray or leave even if they have disagreements and go their separate ways.

What's even more interesting is that Shi Ning had been studying in China before coming to this country, and Ningguang has been in power since ten years ago. The two have no intersection at all, not even on the Internet, let alone being so close.

This is really super interesting. The power of these people is so strong that even Rokugan cannot see it clearly. The way they get along with each other is extremely weird. It is like a huge mystery. Gojo Satoru has a hunch that once he grasps the thread, everything will be solved.

"Ningning, look, what is this?" Ningguang placed the little fox in her arms in front of Shi Ning. The little fox curled up into a ball, lying obediently on the table, breathing shallowly, and looked particularly...thin.

"Wow, it's a fox!" Shi Ning usually likes small animals, but she has never had the chance to raise one. Besides, her mother is allergic to animal hair, so there is no way she can raise one. The appearance of this fox attracted Shi Ning's attention.

"This is a gift from the doctor and the rich man. If you like it, take it and raise it. They have been trained and can go to the toilet and eat by themselves." Ningguang hesitated. A soul in the body of a fox should... be able to take care of Shi Ning in return?

"Perhaps it can still take care of you?"

"Wow, this is such a magical little life." Shi Ning reached out and touched the fox fur in surprise. It was a little rough, but it felt good. "But it is still a life after all. I don't think I have burdened another life."

"It's okay, Ningning. You can keep it in the technical high school. Ji and Maki will also help take care of it." Gojo Satoru interrupted Ningning. He looked at the fox with interest, his six eyes shining through the eye mask.

Ha, this is really interesting. The cursed power unique to humans actually appeared on an animal. Anyway, there is already a panda cursed corpse in the high school, so there is no need to worry about having another strange little animal.

Is there anyone taking care?

Shi Ning's eyes lit up and he looked at Ningguang inquiringly. The white-haired woman chuckled and gently placed the sleeping little fox in Shi Ning's arms.

"You can take it with you. If it stays here, it will just roam free. I'd rather let you have a good time."

After all, everyone in the class knew that Shi Ning liked small animals. Every time after class, this girl would chat with people around her about where she had found stray cats and dogs, which one was the most edible, etc. It was impossible not to know.
