CHAPTER 1134 MORE AND MORE HAPPY

At the thought of that, Jiang Daoran was suddenly unhappy again.

"Madam, Miss Lin is here!" shouted Jiang Hai. Xue Ning stood up instantly without even replying Jiang Daoran and walked over briskly.

The moment she saw Lin Yuzhen, she immediately beamed.

"Yuzhen, you're here."

It was Xue Ning's first time seeing Lin Yuzhen. At first look, she warmed up to her right away. She walked over immediately and held Lin Yuzhen's hand as she said, "You're finally here!"

Lin Yuzhen instantly blushed as she said, "Hello, Auntie."

She didn't expect Xue Ning too be this polite. Xue Ning was so enthusiastic that she was at a loss.

"How wonderful!" said Xue Ning happily, "You have no idea how much I wanted to invite you over the last time. But I was worried that you were busy and didn't want to get in your way. This time, I couldn't resist inviting you. I had to get you to come for dinner since you are in the north."

She turned to see Jiang Daoran still sitting where he was. She frowned and said, "Why are you still sitting there?"

Jiang Daoran then stood up and smiled as he said, "Yuzhen, welcome. I had a chat with your parents when we were in Donghai but didn't have the chance to meet you. But we finally get to meet today."

He glanced around but didn't see Jiang Ning behind Lin Yuzhen, so he couldn't help feeling a little disappointed in his heart.

That brat refused to come home after all.

"Hello, Uncle Jiang," greeted Lin Yuzhen. The moment she first laid eyes on Jiang Daoran, she knew how he was related to Jiang Ning since the two of them looked almost identical.

Lin Yuzhen asked Jiang Ning about his family before, and Jiang Ning didn't withhold anything from her and told her everything. He also told her about the misunderstanding that happened back then.

She didn't know how to judge this matter. Jiang Daoran wasn't wrong as he was trying to protect Jiang Ning and his mother. For the sake of protecting them, he would rather sacrifice himself!

"Alright now, don't just stand around here. Come on in and have a seat," said Jiang Daoran as he smiled.

They led Lin Yuzhen into the living room. The more they looked at her, the more satisfied they were with her.

Jiang Daoran already checked on her long ago, including going to Donghai to visit Lin Yuzhen's parents. Through her parents, he could tell that Lin Yuzhen was a great girl.

She was as kind as Jiang Ning's mother.

Xue Ning cooked some home-cooked dishes. She had meticulously learned how to cook over the years and prepared her best dishes tonight.

"I'm not sure if these suit your appetite. If there's anything you prefer, you can tell me. I will learn how to cook them and prepare them for you when you come again," said Xue Ning as she kept taking food for Lin Yuzhen. "Your mum cooks for you back home. In the north, you can come here and have anything you like. Auntie will cook them for you!"

"Thank you, Auntie!" said Lin Yuzhen gratefully.

Since they were both women, Lin Yuzhen could sense that the smile on Xue Ning's face was sincere. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

They welcomed her and looked forward to seeing her.

But why did Jiang Ning refuse to come today?

They chatted while they ate. They talked about how Lin Yuzhen was like when she was a child, all the way up to college, and when she started working. The more Xue Ning looked at Lin Yuzhen, the more she liked her. And she couldn't wait to know everything there was to know about Lin Yuzhen.

Outside the living room, Brother Gou sat with Jiang Hai.

"I've heard about your name a lot. Many people in the north wish to know you now."

Jiang Hai looked at Brother Gou.

Brother Gou had climbed the ladder from the bottom most rung to become what he was today. He managed to achieve all this because he was inspired and worked hard to make himself better.

All the powerful families in the north knew about the entire pack of wolves in the forbidden territory of Donghai, not just Brother Gou.

With the wolves holding the fort, even if Jiang Ning wasn't around, no one could act recklessly in Donghai!

"Without Big Boss, I'm nothing," said Brother Gou as he glanced at Jiang Hai. "I wouldn't even have a name."
