“Hahahaha! Brother Chu Ning, congratulations!”

The laughter just broke out when several men entered Phoenix Restaurant.

Chu Ning suppressed his surprise and went up to receive them. “Brother Xiangtian, why are you all here?”

These people were of high status. By right, they shouldn’t have come…

“Brother Chu Ning made a comeback after so many years, and you’re now the imperial guards’ Commander in Chief. Your beloved daughter got into Tian Lu Academy with stunning talent. Of course, we have to come and celebrate!” said Ou Xiangtian as he patted Chu Ning’s shoulder.

The others nodded. They were clearly there for the same reasons.

However, Chu Ning’s doubt only deepened. He did know these people, but they were not close. After all, they were all outstanding members of their own families, so there was no way they would be particularly close.

She became her year’s top warrior and second-best Xuan Master on her first day of school! Who would not be jealous?!

Chu Liuyue was rumored to be a good-for-nothing while Chu Ning was downtrodden because of his injury. Who would’ve expected both of them to be where they are now?!

“We’re not too late, are we?” asked Sun Xia.

Chu Ning shook his head with a smile. “You’re just on time, please…”

After hearing the commotion downstairs, the youngsters on the second floor were uneasy.

“Why do I feel like I just heard my father’s name?” Ou Zhen asked confusedly. “Did he beat me silly this morning?”

“It might be, but… I heard my father’s name as well.” Sun Xiaoxiang walked towards the door, looked down from the corridor, and became stunned. “My father really is here! Ou Zhen, your father is here too! You were not mistaken!”

Ou Zhen’s expression froze, and he hugged his head in agony. “No way?! He chased after me all the way here?! He refused to agree when I said I was coming in the morning, and I finally managed to sneak out! I’m doomed! Doomed, I tell you! I’m going to get it from him this time. No! I’ve got to hide first!”

try { window._mNHandle.queue.push(function () { window._mNDetails.loadTag("386623558", "300x250", "386623558"); }); } catch (error) { }

Ou Zhen got to his feet, preparing to jump out of the window.

At this point, Ou Xiangtian looked up and saw Ou Zhen.

The father-son duo’s eyes met.

Ou Zhen was ready to leave. “Comrades, I’ll…”

“Haha! Ah Zhen, you’re here already!”

Ou Zhen knew that he could not hide, so he could only smile stiffly. “Father.”

“This child; do you not know to wait for me? Did you come without preparing any gifts?”

Ou Zhen, who was waiting to be lectured: “?”

“However, Father has already brought the gift. Don’t be so careless next time, okay?”
