My love-brained brothers spoil me to the skies
Chapter 50: Reunited with Old Friends
In the quaint hall filled with the scent of wood, the old lady's words rang in Nangong Jin's ears. She suddenly curled the corners of her mouth slightly, finally revealing her fox tail.
She suddenly raised her eyebrows, looked at the two people opposite with interest and asked, "I remember that the Nangong family has a daughter, why don't they want her to get married?
The old lady said calmly, "If the Gu family hadn't insisted..."
She suddenly stopped talking in the middle of her words and waved her hand impatiently: "You and the servants go down and have a rest first! Go quickly. Don't keep making me angry here!"
At this time, a gentle and pretty girl came in, and she jumped up to the old lady.
"Grandma, I heard that woman is here, where is she?"
Nangong Jin looked at this sweet-looking but arrogant and rude girl and probably guessed that she was his father's other daughter.
Instead of blaming her, the old lady touched her face kindly and dotingly.
"Xiaozhi, why are you here? Why don't you sleep a little longer? Why are those insignificant people looking at her?"
Madam Nangong, who was sitting nearby, quickly stepped forward and took her daughter's hand and whispered, "Xiaozhi, this is your sister. Come on, call her sister!"
Nangong Zhi looked at Nangong Jin with a haughty look, curled her lips and sneered: "I don't have a sister like this! I thought she was so beautiful! Humph, it turns out that a pheasant can never turn into a phoenix!"
Nangong Jin was not angry either, she just glanced at her father, who still closed his eyes and turned a deaf ear to everything.
Oh, he is such a weak and incompetent good father. I really don’t know why my mother liked him in the first place!
Nangong Jin felt that there was nothing interesting to watch, so he glanced at Nangong Zhi and walked out with a swagger.
Nangong Zhi had never suffered such humiliation before. She lifted her skirt and tried to stop Nangong Jin.
"Xiaozhi, don't take the initiative to provoke her. It will do you no good!"
Nangong Zhi looked at her mother's stern warning, bit her lip in grievance, and ran out.
The old lady was still upset that Nangong Jin had never called her grandma from beginning to end.
"Look at her disrespectful behavior. If she marries into the Gu family, how will our Nangong family save face?"
Madam Nangong walked over to the old lady and patted her back to help her breathe.
"Mom, we can only take things one step at a time. The Gu family specifically wants Nangong Jin. We, the Nangong family, must take this opportunity to get close to a prestigious family like the Gu family!"
"You are the most sensible person. Once the Gu family is stabilized, I will give this little bitch a good beating."
At this time, the man sitting next to her finally spoke: "Mother, she is your granddaughter after all, can you be nicer to her?"
The old lady got angry the moment she heard this: "I see you are still thinking about that vixen, give up on this idea, let's go! Qianyu!"
Mrs. Nangong supported the old lady and walked out of the room slowly. She glanced at her husband with resentment and unwillingness in her eyes.
The man just sat quietly in the living room, murmuring, "Wanqin, I'm sorry!"
This was the scene Nangong Jin saw when she turned back, and she suddenly had other ideas in her mind.
The Nangong family’s house is very large, with pavilions and towers everywhere, small bridges and flowing water, surrounded by green plants and the fragrance of flowers.
Nangong Jin came to his room. Everything was arranged in a standard manner. While packing his luggage, Nangong Jin was thinking about his next plan.
They are getting engaged next week, but she hasn’t even met the other party yet, and for some reason she keeps thinking about He Zichen.
There is still a week left, and she can't just stay at home and cause trouble to others, so she has to go out to work. Suddenly she remembered that she hasn't got her lawyer's license back yet!
She hurriedly took out the business card from her wallet: Gu Group - Gu Jingxing!
No matter what kind of monster it is, I have to get my lawyer's license back.
She changed into her professional attire. The fitted cut made her look dignified and capable. Compared to five years ago, Nangong Jin now had more maturity and charm and less childishness between her eyebrows.
She picked up her bag and walked towards the gate. When the housekeeper saw her, he stopped her and said, "Miss, the old lady has ordered that you can't go out casually!"
Nangong Jin just smiled and said calmly: "Butler, if you stop me again, I will sue you for imprisonment. If you report this to the old lady, get out of my way immediately!"
The butler was stunned by her strong appearance and unconsciously stepped aside.
Nangong Jin said quietly: "Thank you!"
The housekeeper's smile was very forced. He looked thoughtful and said, "It seems that things are going to change for the Nangong family!"
Nangong Jin came to the Gu Group building according to the address on the business card.
She looked up at the tall buildings and felt dizzy. She really didn't like these tall buildings.
She held the business card tightly in her hand and walked to the front desk calmly, "Hello, I want to see your president, Gu Jingxing!"
The receptionist asked with her professional smile: "Miss, do you have an appointment?"
Nangong Jin frowned slightly and shook his head.
"I'm sorry, how about I make an appointment for you, and then I'll call you back, okay? Could you please tell me your name?"
“Nangong Jin!”
After saying that, Nangong Jin wanted to turn around and leave, but the customer service lady hurriedly called out to him, "Are you Miss Nangong? It's my mistake. I'll have someone take you upstairs right away!"
Nangong Jin looked at her in confusion as she frantically made a phone call.
Soon, a man walked out of the elevator, an old acquaintance of Nangong Jin.
"Li Ran? Are you Li Ran?"
Nangong Jin looked at the woman walking towards her, her features very familiar to her, and walked over to her in surprise, grabbing her hand.
Li Ran was stunned for a moment, then she looked at Nangong Jin carefully. She had pear-shaped hair that went past her shoulders, and she looked even more beautiful than before.
"You are, Xiao Jin? It's really you. Where have you been? I missed you so much over the years!"
She hugged her excitedly as she spoke, looking like a loving sister, but her smile did not reach her eyes.
"You are the important guest that Mr. Gu mentioned! I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence!"
Nangong Jin's joy at reuniting with her friends after a long separation had made her forget what she was doing here.
Li Ran still tried to inquire indirectly, "Xiao Jin, how did you get to know Mr. Gu? What are you doing here?"
When she asked this, Nangong Jin finally remembered what she was going to do. She said a little embarrassedly: "I came to get something from him! Nothing special!"
But to Li Ran, these words sounded like bragging, and she sounded wary of him, which made the smile on her face gradually fade.
Nangong Jin, after all these years, you're still so annoying!
