C9 Forced to Go Home

"You!"

Jing Xiaode was pissed off, "Are you coming back or not?"

"I'm not going back!"

"Alright! You're the one who said that! If your grandma find trouble with you later, don't say that I didn't inform you!"

Jing Xiaode felt he could not communicate with her properly anymore with her cold personality, so he hung up.

Jing Ning sneered and ignored him. She then put her phone away and continued eating the take-out she had just ordered.

On the other side, Wang Xuemei was sitting in the dining room and when she saw Jing Xiaode walking in angrily, she frowned slightly.

"How is it? Did you tell her? Will she be coming home tonight?"

Jing Xiaode said snappily, "Do you think I make her come home? She's getting bolder now, if we don't pick her up personally, I don't think she'll even come back."

Wang Xuemei's face sunk immediately.

She slammed her chopsticks loudly on the table.

"How could she!"

Everyone in the dining room was shocked. Ever since Jing old master died, Wang Xuemei had been in charge of the Jing Family for all these years, her anger nevertheless had a great impact on the others.

Yu Xiulian gave Jing Xiaoya a look.

Jing Xiaoya quickly picked up a bowl of soup in front of her, walking up to Old Madame, and said gently, "Grandma, don't be mad. It's bad for your health."

Yu Xiulian also interrupted, "Right, let's not force Jing Ning if doesn't want to come back. We'll think of another way to deal with this. Don't be mad, it's bad for your health."

Wang Xuemei sneered, "What a joke! Does she think she has a choice? I want her back today! I'd like to see how bold she can be!"

As she spoke, she raised her hand to summon the butler, Wang Fu.

"Wang Fu, go find out where she is now and send someone to inform her that if she doesn't come back tonight, I'll burn all the things that her mother left behind."

Wang Fu was shocked and he quickly replied, "Yes, Old Madame."

...

In the afternoon, Jing Ning finished her work and shut the door to get off work.

Unexpectedly, just as she walked out of the door, she saw Fu Wang standing at the entrance.

As a senior butler who had been working in Jing Family for more than ten years, Jing Ning recognized him instantly.

Before Yu Xiulian and Jing Xiaoya got into Jing Family, her relationship with Butler Wang was quite good. Although they were not very close, they still treat each other politely.

Now that she saw him again, she suddenly remembered the phone call from Jing Xiaode this afternoon, and her face turned cold.

"Miss, you're off work."

Wang Fu walked towards Jing Ning who held a key and looked at him indifferently.

"Butler Wang, it's been a long time."

"It's been a long time, Miss is getting prettier too. If Madam is still around, she will definitely be very pleased."

Jing Ning smirked lightly, "If my mother is still around, will Butler Wang side my mother or Yu Xiulian?"

Wang Fu did not expect her to ask such a question, leaving him speechless.

Jing Ning also had no intention of making things difficult for him, so she chuckled, "I was just joking. Calm down."

Wang Fu almost broke out in cold sweat and laughed hollowly.

"Is there anything I can help you, Butler Wang?"

Wang Fu immediately said, "Old Madame sent me to pick you up."

Jing Ning's gaze froze for a moment and smirked with a hint of mockery, "Didn't Jing Xiaode tell you that I'm not going back?"

"He did. It's just that Old Madame said that if you don't go back today, she'll burn all the things your mother left behind."

Although Wang Fu spoke in a reserved manner, Jing Ning instantly understood what he meant.

"What does she want?"

Wang Fu looked troubled.

He paused for a moment before giving a bit of earnest advice, "Miss, haven't you suffered a lot by venting your anger at them in the past few years? Having dinner with them would only take a few hours, compared to the precious things that your mother left behind, it's nothing. Don't regret it until you've truly lost it."

Jing Ning's face stiffened and turned ashen.

After some time, she slowly loosened her clenched fingers and said, "Understood."

Only then Wang Fu felt relief after she agreed to follow him back.

He bowed and opened the car door for her, "Miss, please get in the car."

Jing Ning did not say a word and got into the car.

Twenty minutes later, the car drove into the Jing Family Courtyard.

The courtyard was located in a well-known high-end district in Jin City. It was situated at the foot of a mountain and beside a stream, the scenery there was breathtaking.

She got out of the car and walked into the courtyard expressionlessly.

In the living room, Yu Xiulian and Jing Xiaoya were selecting the gown for Xiaoya's birthday banquet which would be held the day after tomorrow.

To Jing Xiaoya, who was about to announce their relationship to the public, this would definitely be an important day. Not only was it her birthday, but also the day of her engagement with Moo Yanze.

After the lunch, Wang Xuemei rushed them to quickly pick their gowns and book the venue.

Now that the banquet was only two days away, it was definitely too late to tailor-made a gown.

In her opinion, she and Moo Yanze were already engaged, so there was no need to dress up too grandly.

After an afternoon of choosing gowns, she finally chose a few of her favorite ones.

For now, she would have to wait for the store assistant to deliver the gowns to her door tomorrow before she was able to try them on.

As the two of them were happily discussing about the gown, they heard a sound coming from the door.

She looked up and saw Jing Ning walking in.

She was wearing a white shirt and black long pants that accentuated her long, straight legs and a cream-colored trench coat. Her curly hair fell over her shoulders, making her look generous.

Jing Xiaoya looked at her and felt a hint of jealousy within her.

She just could not stand to see Jing Ning being pretentious.

She was a sex toy dealer, yet she dressed like a social elite. Besides, that aloof and indifferent expression made others think that she was a noble.

However, when she thought about Jing Ning's occupation, she felt slightly pleased.

So what if she pretended to be noble? She was no match for her.

She was the daughter of the Jing Family, the most popular newcomer in the entertainment industry. But how about her?

She was just an abandoned daughter who had been driven out of the house. So what if she was talented? She still could not keep her job.

Now that she could only be in the ten-square-meter store all day, selling her sex toys.

Thinking of this, Jing Xiaoya could not help but feel proud. Straightening her back, her lips curved into a smile as she walked towards her.

"Sister, you're back!"

Yu Xiulian also came back to her senses and quickly went forward with a smile on her face.

"Jing Ning is back. Take a seat! Nanny Chen, get the young mistress a glass of water."

The maid, Nanny Chen hurriedly brought a glass of water over but there was a hint of contempt in her eyes when she looked at Jing Ning.

Jing Ning did not mind about that and ask coldly, "Why did you call me over?"

Yu Xiulian looked slightly awkward.

Jing Xiaoya read the situation and quickly went forward to grab on her arm, smiling as she said, "Sister, why are you in such a hurry? It's been a long time since you came home. We can talk about it after dinner! Also, it's been a long time since we sat together and have a chat and it's still early for dinner. How about having a good chat in my room?"

Jing Ning looked at her coldly then spoke in a mocking tone.

"Talk about what? About how you seduced a man? I'm sorry, I'm not interested in those dirty tricks, and it's too challenging for me to even learn them."
