Chapter 247 - 247: Creating Discord
“Cousin, why are you looking for Ning Sheng? What’s the matter?” Ning Yue was shocked.
Although Ning Sheng and Ning Xia Xia’s relationship wasn’t good, it didn’t reach the point where they were enemies. Moreover, why did Ning Xia Xia come to the capital? Wasn’t she called off the engagement??
Ning Xia Xia glanced at Ning Yue.
Compared to Ning Sheng’s arrogant attitude, Ning Yue appeared more approachable. She spoke, “I am now the young miss of the Gu family in the capital. I naturally want to repay Ning Sheng for how she treated me in the past.”
Especially for causing me to lose everything in the end!
“The Gu family???” Ning Yue was stunned.
The Gu family was once one of the four major families.
Ning Xia Xia, the young miss of the Gu family? Was she kidding?
She came from the neighboring city and didn’t have a clear grasp of the situation in the capital. But she knew that the current situation in the capital wasn’t good. It could change drastically at any moment, and the calm appearance was just a facade.
With the support of the second master of the Gu family, she had to rise to power.
Ning Sheng… was her biggest threat!
Ning Yue said in confusion, “…The Gu family in the capital? Cousin, what’s going on?”
She didn’t want to believe that this woman, Ning Xia Xia, who had been useless and clueless since childhood, suddenly transformed into a high and mighty young miss. It was puzzling.
And she had never heard that Ning Xia Xia was adopted?
“I am the daughter of Gu You Xi, the eldest master of the Gu family who passed away long ago. The second master of the Gu family brought me back to inherit the family business. I heard that you were in the capital recently, so I’m here to visit you as a gesture of sisterhood, and also to ask if you know Ning Sheng’s whereabouts.” Ning Xia Xia spoke slowly.
After all… Ning Sheng could only be found through the Ning family.
If she let the Gu family find her, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Upon hearing this, Ning Yue looked at the man in black outside the door, seemingly convinced by Ning Xia Xia’s words. However, why was Ning Xia Xia, with such a powerful family background, solely targeting Ning Sheng?
“Cousin, you’re already a young miss. Why are you fixated on Ning Sheng? Ning Sheng… is not easy to mess with now, you know.” Ning Yue sweetly spoke.
Ning Xia Xia, not knowing her own limitations, wanted to cause trouble for Ning Sheng. But if she knew about Lu Chu Yao, who was behind Ning Sheng, wouldn’t she back down? Since that was the case, it was better to let Ning Xia Xia take a chance and then… see who would suffer more.
If the four major families start fighting because of this, or if there was a decisive conflict between the Gu family and the Lu family, wouldn’t that make things easier for Master Lu Yi Hen?
This way, she would gain more benefits!
“Huh? Not easy to mess with?” Ning Xia Xia clearly didn’t care.
Ning Yue spoke, “She used to work as a translation officer in the Translation Institute, but then my parents came to the capital and caused a scene. Now she seems to be working at the… Physics Research Institute, at F University…”
Actually, Ning Yue wasn’t very clear about it, but she subconsciously paid attention to Ning Sheng’s matter. Coincidentally, a friend of hers who was also a trainee mentioned that her brother was working at the Physics Research Institute, and Ning Yue happened to hear about Ning Sheng from her.
“What?!” Ning Xia Xia’s expression changed drastically.
Physics Research Institute? How could Ning Sheng be at the Physics Research Institute?
She suddenly remembered what Gu You Shen had said, “Gu You Xi was already a world-renowned young physicist at the age of 21..” Wasn’t Ning Sheng the top scholar in liberal arts? When did she start getting involved in physics?
