Chapter 432: 169 Canât she turn the world upside down in the Jiangjing circle? Guessing Ranking_3
Hearing the sound from the room dwindling, he finally relaxed. Clenching the cigarette between his teeth, he pulled out his phone to return the call, âWhat is it?â
His voice was heavy.
On the other end of the phone, his confidant, sensing his bad mood, simply said, âHow should this yearâs share be divided? Quite a few people in China have found Lucian and his men.â
âWeâll talk when I get back,â Wang Youfeng recently had no mood to deal with these matters, the scar on his brow imbued with a fierce aura, âTell them to tighten up.â
âYes, boss,â his confidant replied.
Wang Youfeng hung up the call, irritated.
After waiting a while longer, Ning Xiao emerged from the room. His hair at the front was a bit long, shadowing the gloom in his eyes, âUncle Wang.â
His tone was indifferent.
âGodmother stopped taking her medicine?â Wang Youfeng sought countless doctors for Grandma Wang in the past, but she had long been plagued by illness. Being over ninety and still alive was already not easy.
Ning Xiao went to sweep the trash in the courtyard, responding coldly with a âHmm.â
Wang Youfeng was not surprised by his cheap nephewâs attitude. Watching Ning Xiaoâs retreating figure, he reached out to light his cigarette, âYour technique is good; it reduced godmotherâs pain considerably. Which doctor did you learn from?â
Wang Youfeng could naturally tell Ning Xiaoâs proficiency.
âClassmate,â Ning Xiao replied sparingly.
Classmate? Wang Youfeng watched Ning Xiaoâs back, slightly surprised. He knew Ning Xiao well; because of his early life experiences, he was usually distant and they rarely spoke.
It was only in the last two years, as Grandma Wangâs health failed, that they communicated more.
âHmm,â Wang Youfeng glanced at Ning Xiao, took a slow drag from his cigarette, and spoke softly, âIn a couple of days, Iâll find a chance to invite your classmate for a meal. You let them know.â
Ning Xiao remained silent.
âDonât let godmother worry with her in this condition,â Wang Youfeng exhaled smoke, âThey teach you because they consider you a friend. After finally making a friend, do you want me to tell godmother?â
âI got it,â Ning Xiao finally spoke.
âYour classmate, a boy or a girl?â Wang Youfeng pried further.
Ning Xiao looked at him coldly.
Wang Youfeng removed the cigarette, âAlright, alright, I wonât ask⦠You stinker.â

Jiangjing, Xu Family.
Mid-month, the Xu family gathered for a meal at the old masterâs place. The Xu family lineage had substantially more people than the Jiang Family, and with ambitious younger generations, strife within big families was inevitable.
Gao Yan sat next to Xu Jueling, below the old master.
Across them, Xu Jueming glanced at Xu Jueling, âI heard big brother secured a position for a clerk?â
With her makeup impeccably done, Gao Yan elegantly sipped her tea without a word upon hearing this.
Xu Jueling answered with minimal effort and a slight smile, âSecond brother is well-informed.â
âOf course, big brother has a fine son. Everyone in the clan respects big brother,â Xu Jueming lifted his head with a smirk, âIâve heard Nanjing has been up to something big recently. Let me congratulate big brother in advance.â
âBig move?â The old master indeed looked up, directing his gaze at Xu Jueling with a smile, âI was wondering why I havenât seen Nanjing lately. Where did he go?â
Among the younger generation of the Xu family, many were outstanding, but in Jiangjing, Xu Nanjing and Xu Jin were particularly well-known, particularly Xu Nanjing, who had the backing of the Jiang Family and who had always outshone Xu Jin.
Giving Xu Jueming a brief glance, Xu Jueling reported to the old master, âDad, donât mind the nonsense from my second brother. Nanjing has been off riding motorbikes in some secluded place recently.â
Less than ten people knew that Xu Nanjing went to Xiangcheng to draw blood from Jiang Fulai.
âYouâre being modest,â Xu Jueming turned to the old master, âNanjing wants to give you a surprise.â
Xu Jueling frowned slightly.

After the meal.
On his way back to his own yard, Xu Jueling finally spoke to Gao Yan, âWho did you want that position for?â
He asked casually, knowing his wife was a person of discretion, which is why he hadnât refused when she brought it up.
âFor our future daughter,â Gao Yan, wrapped in a thick military coat over her cheongsam in the Jiangjing cold, paused as she recalled Xu Nanjingâs response, âXue Dingâeâs daughter.â
She answered.
Xu Jueling was used to Gao Yanâs odd descriptions, âDaughter? Xu Jinyi?â
Xu Jinyi, Xu Juemingâs daughter, was currently the highest-status socialite in Jiangjingâs circles.
Old master Xu greatly doted on her, and Xu Jinyi was also very promising. Unlike her father, Gao Yan had a good impression of her.
After all, with the familyâs prominence in the Xu family, the only ones who could outshine Xu Jinyi were members of the Jiang Family. But in this generation of the Jiang Family, there was no other young lady but Jiang Fulai.
