The smile on Meng Yue's face froze when she heard that.

She thought that she had found out about Ning's presence in the company in advance, but in the end, she was completely disheartened.

Ning Yuan did not care about her feelings. He tilted his head and prepared to stride into the office building as if this was his home.

Suddenly, Ning Yuan leaned back as if he had seen something very surprising.

After at least ten seconds, Ning Yuan took off his sunglasses and blinked hard. "F*ck, it's you?"

Because Fang Qing was standing behind Meng Yue, Meng Yue thought that Ning Yuan was talking to her. She felt very confused and subconsciously tidied her hair.

As if she had confirmed it, Ning Yuan started to walk over. "Qingqing! It's really you!"

Fang Qing heard this and said helplessly, "Didn't I tell you to stop calling me that? You're already so old, yet you still call me that."

Ning Yuan acted as if he had not heard her. "It's really you. I was planning to come and play with you after the next movie. Is your husky still around?"

Ning Yuan had always been arrogant and withdrawn when he was young. He did not have many people to play with. One year, he left the city and went to his grandmother's house in the countryside to recuperate.

Ning Yuan's grandmother's house was considered a villa in the countryside of that era. However, when he arrived there, he realized that his grandmother's house was directly next to a manor. Sometimes in the afternoon, the sound of a little girl giggling and the meowing of a kitten could be heard from the manor.

The restless Ning Yuan secretly ran out after lunch one day without his grandmother's knowledge. He used the protruding bricks of the wall to climb over it. However, because of the wet and slippery rain, he slipped down with a sizzling sound. His beautiful little face was covered in mud.

Just as Ning Yuan recovered from the pain, a little girl with two ponytails stood in front of him. "Hahahaha, little black carbon."

"Who are you calling little black carbon!" Ning Yuan retorted, unwilling to admit defeat.

"Of course it's you. Do you want to look in the mirror?" The cat in Fang Qing's hand seemed to be trying to please its owner. It also meowed, which was extremely sarcastic in Ning Yuan's ears.

"By the way, why did you sneak into my house? Are you a thief?" Fang Qing came back to her senses as if she had just woken up from a dream and questioned Ning Yuan.

As if it was the nature of all children to object to being wronged, Ning Yuan immediately clarified himself and told her that he was the grandson of the grandma next door.

He did not expect Fang Qing to know Grandma Ning and say that she wanted to bring Ning Yuan back.

Ning Yuan immediately objected, "Absolutely not. If My grandma finds out that I climbed over the fence and got injured, she will definitely be sad."

Just like that, Ning Yuan used the excuse of playing at Fang Qing's house as a reason to stay in the manor to recuperate.

As for the cat called Husky, it was the reason why every time Fang Qing changed Ning Yuan's dressing, it would jump on Ning Yuan's wound and scream beside it. It was the reason why Ning Yuan gave it a cordial name.

Fang Qing looked at the current Ning Yuan and lamented that time was like a crack. The boy who jumped out of the middle school years ago seemed to be... still the same.

"Isn't this to receive you, President Ning?"

Ning Yuan immediately waved his hand and said hurriedly, "I can't afford it."

If Ning Yuan was a dazzling star in the current era, then Fang Qing was also a star in his childhood and growth.

This star slowly brought him out of his isolation and began to communicate with people. It brought him to know every plant and tree in the manor and played outdoor games that were strictly forbidden by his parents and elders.

Then, Ning Yuan put his hand on Fang Qing's shoulder and walked in, leaving Meng Yue petrified on the spot.

It was said that the prince was cold and aloof and that strangers were not allowed to get close to him? Why was he so lively with Fang Qing and did not pretend to be familiar with her?

With mixed feelings, Meng Yue still followed him in.

At the same time, Gu Cheng, who was standing in front of the french window, had mixed feelings as well as Meng Yue. He stood there and watched the entire reception process.

Seeing Ning Yuan and Fang Qing's fight, an unknown fire burned in his heart. "This b*stard!"

After entering, since only Fang Qing and Ning Yuan were walking side by side, Meng Yue was already far behind them. Ning Yuan was chattering non-stop as if he was a chatterbox, "Sister Qing, why are you here at work? Is the manor at home not big enough?"

"Let me tell you, I recently bought a manor too. Although it's not even a quarter of the size of your house, it's enough for us to have fun!"

"Sister Qing, are you hungry? Shall I bring you out for dinner?"

As this was a company, Fang Qing did not respond to his nonsense. This way, Ning Yuan seemed to have received tacit approval and spoke even more.

After walking for a while, Fang Qing finally could not hold it in and was going to speak up to stop him when someone suddenly blocked in front of them. "Come eat with me."

The faint but unquestionable tone pierced through Fang Qing's ears. Fang Qing looked up and saw Gu Cheng's gloomy face as if he was going to eat her up.
