Chapter 158 Discipline Your Daughter
Chapter 158 Discipline Your Daughter
The buffet ended abruptly in an atmosphere of embarrassment and dissatisfaction. Ni Bin and his group left angrily with a dark face.
Not only did they fail to gain any advantage at the party, but they became the laughing stock.
What's even more frustrating is that the girl they brought not only did not stand on their side, but was instead stolen away by the other party.
This was undoubtedly a huge loss of face, and Ni Bin's jokes would soon spread throughout the circle.
After Chen Feng said goodbye to them, Hou Shuo patted him on the shoulder and invited him, "Brother, where do you live? Let's go have some mutton hotpot tomorrow and have a good time together!"
Cao Mingming also joined in the fun and said, "Yes, you must go, both of you must come. If you don't come, I will go directly to the hospital to complain to your grandfather!"
Chen Feng smiled and nodded in agreement, secretly thinking that although he had offended Ni Bin today, it was not without gain. These young people with prominent family backgrounds might become his right-hand men in the future.
In the domestic business world, circle culture is crucial. He is well aware that once these seemingly unenlightened children from large courtyards become interested in business, the energy they unleash cannot be underestimated.
After saying goodbye to everyone, Chen Feng and Ning Yao walked side by side on the path in Xiangshan Park.
Ning and Yao seemed especially close today, walking almost side by side, more intimate than ever. Chen Feng thought to himself that perhaps the occasional minor disturbance between lovers could actually warm their relationship.
Ning Yao snuggled up to him, telling him everything that had happened today. Chen Feng listened patiently, but his heart couldn't help but ripple.
He began to feel a little dissatisfied with his future father-in-law, Governor Ning. He felt that Governor Ning seemed reluctant to hand his daughter over to him, which made Chen Feng feel uncomfortable.
"Hmph, since you don't want to, I'm going to fight for it!" Chen Feng swore secretly in his heart.
He didn't know about the Phnom Penh Winery at this time, otherwise, his anger would probably be even more intense.
After leaving Xiangshan Park, the two returned to Beijing University.
The atmosphere on campus made them feel much more relaxed.
Walking hand in hand on the campus of Jingcheng University, they were like an ordinary campus couple, enjoying this rare tranquility and sweetness.
Ning Yao was extremely happy. This was her long-cherished wish: to walk hand in hand with her beloved on the university campus. This wish, which she couldn't realize at Ninghai University, came true at Jingcheng University.
At this moment, she was completely immersed in this happiness, and the previous unhappiness had long disappeared.
Although the dishes in the cafeteria of Jingcheng University during the holidays were simple, the two of them ate with gusto. After the meal, they walked out of the school gate leisurely. The old man guarding the gate recognized Chen Feng at a glance.
"Hey, young man, have you found your classmates?" the old man greeted him enthusiastically.
Chen Feng smiled and took out a pack of Marlboro from his bag and handed it to the old man. "Uncle, these cigarettes are strong, please smoke less."
The old man took the cigarette with a smile and said, "It's okay for me to smoke dry tobacco leaves in my hometown, don't worry!" After that, he waved his hand and told them to go shopping quickly.
Ning Yao stood aside, watching this scene, a happy smile on his face.
She suddenly remembered the familiar figure she saw when she was riding the bus out of the school gate. Now she was almost certain that it was Chen Feng. She felt a little regretful. If she had gotten off the bus or called out, perhaps she could have met him sooner.
However, she felt that the current situation was good, so she held Chen Feng's arm tightly and didn't want to be separated from him for a moment.
The next afternoon, near the end of the get off work day, the phone on Ning Hezhong's desk suddenly rang, and the caller ID of "Beijing" flashed on the screen.
He picked up the phone and heard it was Ni Cheng, the third son of the Ni family. His voice revealed a bit of surprise and enthusiasm: "Hey, third son, how come you have time to call me?"
Ni Cheng, who works at the Ministry of Transportation, laughed heartily on the other end of the line. The two exchanged a few pleasantries before the topic gradually shifted to Ning Yao. Ni Cheng's tone was somewhat helpless, "He Zhong, it's a bit embarrassing to say this, but it seems the two kids are having a bit of a fight."
Ning Hezhong was stunned, "What's wrong?"
Ni Cheng explained, "Yesterday, Xiaobin took Ning Yao to meet some friends, but Ning Yao didn't give Xiaobin much face, so Xiaobin came back very sad. You know, young people like them sometimes just want to save face."
Ning Hezhong frowned upon hearing this: "What's going on? Yaoyao has always been sensible, how could this happen?"
Ni Cheng consoled him, "Hey, Hezhong, don't take it personally. We shouldn't interfere too much in the affairs of children. It's just that there are some rumors going around in the capital right now, and they're having a bad influence on them. I'm telling you this just to get your attention."
Ning Hezhong nodded: "Third brother, I understand. I will ask Yao Yao about the situation later."
Ni Cheng said a few more words before hanging up. Ning Hezhong held the phone, feeling a mixture of emotions. Ni Cheng's words seemed to imply that it was Ning Yao's fault, which made him feel very uncomfortable. Did he need someone else to teach his daughter how to discipline her?
He wanted to find Ning Yao and ask for clarification immediately, but then he realized he couldn't contact his daughter at all. If she were in Ninghai, he could ask Gao Qi to go there, but Ning Yao was at Jingcheng University, and he didn't even have a phone number, which really put him in a difficult position.
After sighing, Ning Hezhong decided to wait and see. He would talk to Ning Yao about this matter after she returned from the capital.
Back in Beijing, Chen Feng had already brought Ning Yao to Donglaishun. But they weren't alone; there was also a "light bulb" with them—Cao Mingming.
Ning Yao had just finished participating in a school exchange activity today, so Chen Feng took her to Xiyuan Hospital to visit her master. Unexpectedly, they ran into Cao Mingming again.
Cao Mingming's grandmother had a very successful operation yesterday and is now recovering with traditional Chinese medicine under the care of Mr. Qu.
Chen Feng also learned more about Grandma Cao's background. She was a nurse during the war and later trained as a doctor. She saved many lives on the battlefield, and many veteran cadres still alive remember her helping them remove bullets. Consequently, everyone held Grandma Cao in high esteem.
Grandma Cao was very impressed by Mr. Qu's medical skills and also highly regarded his apprentice, Chen Feng. "Little Chen, you did a great job treating the child yesterday. Today, please continue to help me look after this girl. I'll chat with your master here. You young people, go out and have fun."
When Cao Mingming heard this, he was extremely happy and immediately pulled Chen Feng and Ning Yao out.
