Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Especially after Jing Yaorong gave an order to kill Jing Yunyao and Leng Yuanhan, Jing Jining hated him more than ever. However, he couldn’t do anything about it, because he was no match for Jing Yaorong.
In fact, during these years, the Jing family began to weaken under Jing Yaorong’s leadership, and was left behind by the other three dominant families. Jing Yaorong deserved a serious punishment.
“You don’t need to be worried about me. I won’t risk my life to take revenge. I must be well-prepared before I take action,” said Jing Yunyao.
Actually, even if she was going to take revenge, she wouldn’t kill Jing Yaorong, because she was unwilling to bear the crime of killing her own father.
Jing Jining opened his mouth, but didn’t know what to say. Jing Yunyao used to be at a lower level than him, but now she was even better than him.
As long as Jing Yunyao kept improving herself, she would be able to punish Jing Yaorong. However, that was under the condition that the senior members of the Jing family wouldn’t be involved.
There were three senior cultivators in the Jing family who were also famous in the cultivation world.
If the senior members of the Jing family were involved, Jing Yunyao alone wouldn’t be able to hurt Jing Yaorong.
“Oh, have you seen Leng Shaoting yet?” asked Jing Jining.
“Not yet. I’m not prepared for it,” said Jing Yunyao.
“Fine, I’ll go to see you in the capital tomorrow, and we can talk about other things then,” said Jing Jining.
“Sure.” Jing Yunyao agreed.
Gu Ning heard that Jing Yunyao was having a call, but she didn’t hear their conversation because Jing Yunyao kept her voice down.
Late that night, Gu Ning called Leng Shaoting again. “Shaoting, I met General Peng at Tangyun Teahouse today, and he told me that your father gave a manor to your mother after he proposed to your mother. Is it true?”
“Yeah, we can go there if you’re curious about it,” said Leng Shaoting.
If Gu Ning didn’t mention it, Leng Shaoting would have almost forgotten the manor.
Gu Ning was excited. “Does it still exist?”
“Of course,” said Leng Shaoting.
“Where is it?” asked Gu Ning again.
Leng Shaoting didn’t know that Gu Ning asked that for a purpose, so he told her the address.
“Great, we can go to see it together when you’re back,” said Gu Ning, but she already made the decision to go there with Jing Yunyao first.
…
After a night, Jing Yunyao calmed herself down and went to prepare breakfast in the morning. She then told Gu Ning that Jing Jining called her last night.
Gu Ning didn’t think it was a problem, because Jing Jining was Jing Yunyao’s ally instead of an enemy.
After having breakfast, Gu Ning and Jing Yuyao went to visit Peng Shiyin’s grave. They bought a bunch of flowers on their way.
It didn’t take them much time to find Peng Shiyin’s grave.
When Jing Yunyao saw Peng Shiyin’s photo on the tombstone, she felt like her face looked very familiar.
Jing Yunyao put the flowers down and said, “Shiyin, I’m Yunyao, and I came to see you today, but I’m sorry because I forgot you. Please forgive me.”
When Jing Yunyao said that to herself, a series of pictures flashed by her eyes again.
When she just left the cultivation world and arrived at the capital for the first time, she knew nothing and had no money with her. She had to sell her earrings for some money. Unfortunately, she met a bad businessman and he only gave her four hundred yuan for a pair of earrings which were worth over a thousand yuan.
Twenty years ago, a thousand yuan was a lot of money.
An 18-year-old girl coincidentally saw it and stood out to help Jing Yunyao. The girl was exactly Peng Shiyin.
Peng Shiyin learned that Jing Yunyao just arrived at the capital and had no friends here, so she decided to rent her empty apartment to Jing Yunyao.
When Peng Shiyin took her to see the apartment, they were stopped by a group of hoodlums halfway. Without hesitation, Jing Yunyao beat them down like lightning, which impressed Peng Shiyin and they became friends afterwards.
The pictures ended here and Jing Yunyao had a strong headache all of a sudden.
“Mother, are you alright?” Gu Ning was worried.
“I’m fine. I just remembered how I met Shiyin,” said Jing Yunyao.
“Really? Did you remember anything else?” Gu Ning was excited.
“No, I just remember our first meeting,” said Jing Yunyao with disappointment.
Gu Ning comforted her. “It’s fine. We can take it easy.”
Jing Yunyao and Gu Ning stayed there for a while longer, then left.
On their way home, an idea dawned on Gu Ning. “Mother, is it possible that you can get some of your memories back once you see photos of the deceased who you feel familiar with? I think it’s an important hint.”
Jing Yunyao’s eyes lit up at once. “You’re right. It’s a hint!”
