45 Ghost

By the time we returned to the main residence, it was already bustling with activity.

Jing Ning saw us and coldly averted his gaze. What's with him? Did my actions earlier injure his ego?

I couldn't care less about him and looked around for my target.

Miss Jing Yan was sitting beside my little uncle who was playing chess with Old Master Jing. Jing Tian sat on the other side and watched the game too.

Gee, what a coincidence! I walked towards them and called out when I was standing behind Jing Yang, "Old Master Jing! Teacher! Little uncle!" Jing Yan turned around with annoyance, probably to scold the person who dared to shout in such close proximity to her ears.

However, the next second her body leaned back and she knocked into the chessboard. "Ah!" She screamed. That scream caught everyone by surprise, including me.
