In the night, Leng Shaoting called Gu Ning so Gu Ning asked him what his maternal grandfather’s name was and the address of the place where he used to live.

Because Gu Ning asked the questions casually, Leng Shaoting didn’t think further about it.

He told her that his maternal grandfather was Ye Zhengye, and that the place he used to live was at XX Road in the northern district. The house was still there, but only the housekeeper and his wife were living there.

After Ye Zhengye and his wife passed away, the other members of the Ye family moved out as well, so Leng Shaoting told the housekeeper to stay there. The house was empty anyway.

…

The next day, Gu Ning got up early to run.

Jing Yunyao heard that Gu Ning was up, so she left the bed too, then went to run along with Gu Ning. It wasn’t convenient for her to practice her cultivation right now, so she could only improve her physical health. Cultivators needed to exercise too.

When they walked outside, Gu Ning said to Jing Yunyao, “Mother, Shaoting told me that your adopted father’s name is Ye Zhengye, and that the place he used to live is at XX Road in the northern district. The house is still there, but only the housekeeper and his wife are living there. We can visit it after having breakfast.”

Hearing the name Ye Zhengye, Jing Yunyao felt familiar, but she couldn’t remember the man’s face.

“Sure.” Jing Yunyao nodded.

“Oh, what’s the name of the Ye family’s housekeeper?” asked Jing Yunyao.

“Meng Zhengde,” said Gu Ning.

Gu Ning ran into Jiang Ruiqin that morning.

Although Jiang Ruiqin knew that it was impossible for him to be together with Gu Ning, he still wanted to see her. Therefore, as long as it wasn’t rainy, Jiang Ruiqin would go out to run in the morning trying to meet Gu Ning. He would also run in the morning even if Gu Ning didn’t live here, but he wouldn’t be as diligent.

“Hi, Gu Ning, been a while!” Jiang Ruiqin was excited to see her.

“Hi, Ruiqin, been a while,” said Gu Ning.

Jiang Ruiqin saw Jing Yunyao who ran next to Gu Ning. He was struck dumb for a second, and felt that she looked familiar, but couldn’t remember where they had met before.

“Hi, nice to meet you, ma’am,” said Jiang Ruiqin politely.

“Nice to meet you too.” Jing Yunyao smiled at him. She noticed Jiang Ruiqin’s reaction when he saw her, but said nothing about it.

After that, Jiang Ruiqin ran with them till he was out of strength.

When they were running together, Jiang Ruiqin glanced at Jing Yunyao once in a while, trying to remember who she was.

Jing Yunyao asked Gu Ning after Jiang Ruiqin was gone, “Ningning, who is he? Why do I feel like he knows me?”

“Oh, his name is Jiang Ruiqin, the grandson of Master Leng’s good old friend, Jiang Zhongyu. The Jiang family and the Leng family have been allies for generations, so I bet they must know you, but he was too young when he last saw you,” said Gu Ning.

Jing Yunyao nodded.

After running for a while longer, Gu Ning and Jing Yunyao went back home. They both went to have a shower, and then had breakfast together later.
