Chapter 122 - Stay or Not

“Alright, Master. I’ll go shopping on the street first. You guys go back first,” Ning Yue said to Gu Yu.

She wanted to take out some of the things in the space, but she was also worried that it would arouse suspicion if she did so. She might as well buy five carriages and pretend to shop while taking the opportunity to put the things in the space in the carriage and hire someone to drive.

Along the way, the carriages moved on the streets of the capital. Passers-by exclaimed.

Even in a place like the capital that was filled with gold, not many people could buy a large number of carriages.

When the carriages returned home, Madam He was stunned by this scene. “Yueyue, why did you buy so many things?”

“When we go back tomorrow, I plan to buy some gifts for everyone,” Ning Yue said with a smile.

Madam He was speechless. Why hadn’t she realized that her daughter was so generous? She had bought everything from the five large carriages just like that. There were probably so many things that the rooms wouldn’t be able to accommodate them.

Just as Madam He was about to say something, Ning Feng suddenly arrived.

When Madam He saw Ning Feng, she said to Ning Yue, “I’ll go prepare lunch. Have a good chat with your father.” With that, Madam He turned around and left.

Ning Yue looked at Ning Feng and did not say anything. Instead, Ning Feng spoke first. “I’m here to bring your grandmother back.”

“I’ll talk to Grandmother.” At this moment, Ning Yue’s heart was a little heavy.

No matter what, she was unwilling to let her return to the General’s Residence. However, since An Ning had chosen to return, she could only respect her.

“Yueyue, aren’t you willing to call me?” Ning Feng stopped her.

Ning Yue stopped in her tracks, but did not stop. She went to call An Ning out.

An Ning did not say anything else. She packed some clothes and planned to leave with Ning Feng.

“Grandmother, are you really going back?” Ning Yue asked.

“Don’t worry, I’ll settle your cousin and second brother down before I go back,” said An Ning with a smile.

When Ning Yue heard this, she knew that An Ning had misunderstood. She quickly explained, “Grandmother, that’s not what I meant. I just…”

“Yueyue, I know how much you care for me. It’s just that I have my own things to do. Don’t worry about me.”

After saying that, An Ning looked at Ning Feng. “Have you read all my letters?”

Ning Feng nodded. “Mother, I’ve seen everything, but I have to ask Ning Yue for her opinion.”

“Your grandmother and I want your cousin and second brother to study in the General’s Residence. Both of them want to become generals. If they go back with you, they still have the General’s Residence to rely on,” Ning Feng said.

Ning Yue was in a dilemma. Letting Erlang and Liu Xuan go to the general’s residence was undoubtedly the best choice, but she did not want to owe the general’s residence a favor.

However, on second thought, shouldn’t she ask the people involved?

“Let’s go back tomorrow. I’ll give an tomorrow.” Ning Yue sighed.

Seeing Ning Yue’s hesitation, Ning Feng said, “Yueyue, in this world, we can’t do as we please. I did something wrong, but I’m making up for it now. Please give me a chance.”

Ning Yue fell silent. She did not know if she should give him this chance.

Logically speaking, she did not want to care about Ning Feng, but An Ning was going back to the General’s Residence. She could ignore Ning Feng, but she could not ignore An Ning.

“Alright, we don’t have to say much on the surface. Come and send Yueyue off tomorrow. Yueyue, you have to wait for Grandmother. We’ll go back after dinner,” An Ning said to Ning Yue.

Originally, she could have returned to the General’s Residence after a while, but many things had happened recently, so she couldn’t delay it.

After An Ning returned, Ning Yue’s heart had been heavy.

She really wanted to know her grandmother’s true intentions for returning to the General’s Residence. She was very worried.

When it was time for dinner, Ning Yue was still distracted. Gu Yu said, “If you’re worried, take her away.”

Ning Yue smiled bitterly. If only she could take her away. An Ning was determined to stay in the General’s Residence. What could she do?

“Yueyue, it’s not that this world can’t survive without you. Others have their own things to do.” Gu Yu said.
