Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 1140: Chapter 1141: I’m Proud

Listening to Ning Ge’s words, a trace of contemplation flashed in Ning Gang’s eyes. Just as he was about to speak, there was an exclamation from outside: ”Dad, why are you standing here? And not even turning on the light.”

Ning Gang and Ning Ge were startled and stood up simultaneously to exchange a glance. Outside, the elder sister-in-law’s concerned question echoed, along with Old Master’s response.

”Hmm, why is the study light on?” The sister-in-law twisted the doorknob as she spoke, and upon entering, she paused upon seeing the two brothers and asked, ”What are you two brothers doing here not sleeping, ah, smoking as well. Ning Gang, you’ve started smoking again!”

Fumbling, Ning Gang pressed the cigarette butt into the ashtray on the table, pointing at Ning Ge: ”Xiao Si couldn’t sleep and dragged me to talk, he’s the one who got me smoking!”

Ning Ge was taken aback, looking at his elder brother. Wasn’t this shameless? He was clearly the one who gave it to me!

Ning Gang guiltily avoided Ning Ge’s gaze, turning instead to look at a piece of calligraphy on the wall. Hmm, it’s really well-written.

”Xiao Si!” The sister-in-law frowned, prepared to walk over, when Ning Ge quickly noticed the dossiers on the table and hurriedly collected them, sitting down on the sofa.

”Sister-in-law, I don’t smoke often,” Ning Ge grinned sheepishly.

”I’ve told you not to smoke so much. Confiscated!” The sister-in-law took the cigarettes from the table, and Ning Gang looked heartbroken. It was only this one pack.

Ning Ge watched him with a faint smile, deserved it.

”Alright, eldest son’s wife, it’s almost dawn. Go make some breakfast, I’m hungry,” Old Master Ning said.

”Oh, okay.” The sister-in-law quickly agreed and went out.

It was only then that Ning Gang and the others noticed outside. Indeed, the early summer night was short, and before they knew it, the sky was already a little bright.

So, how much had Old Master Ning heard while standing at the door?

Ning Ge felt a bit uneasy, not daring to look at Old Master Ning. Ning Gang, on the other hand, went over to support the old master, cautiously asking, ”Dad, did we wake you?”

Old Master Ning’s room was right opposite the study. Since the elderly slept lightly, they might have woken him up earlier.

Old Master Ning sat down, his gaze complex as he looked at Ning Ge.

Ning Gang saw this and knew that Old Master had heard everything. So, he called out, ”Dad, Xiao Si he...”

Old Master Ning raised his hand and said, ”No need to explain, I’ve heard it all!”

He hadn’t expected that this seemingly unrestrained youngest son was actually like this inside. He knew it, how could his son Ning Zhengguang be useless?

Great, that’s what a son of the Ning Family should be. No matter his status, contributing to the country, loyal to the country, loyal to the Party, he is his good son.

Old Master Ning felt relieved. Now he could rest assured that this child, who had everything calculated, was in no way inferior to his two older brothers. Even if he passed away in the future, he wouldn’t worry that he needed to rely on anyone to live; there was no need to be concerned for him.

Good, very good!

Old Master Ning’s eyes glistened with tears, his emotions slightly stirred.

”Dad, don’t blame Xiao Si. He... he is just disobedient, doing things on his own,” Ning Gang thought the old man was shocked, feeling deceived, so he defended Ning Ge: ”He didn’t intentionally hide it from us, just afraid of us worrying. Dad, you... Xiao Si, kneel down now.”

Kneel then. It’s not the first time kneeling, anyway now that big brother knows, surely everyone will know too. It spares him from hiding, it’s better.

Ning Ge knelt down, bowed his head, and said, ”Old Master, I was wrong.”

”Get up, why kneel!” Old Master Ning personally helped him up, looking at him, ”You did nothing wrong. Dad is happy, you are excellent, your old man is proud.”

Hmm...

Ning Ge and Ning Gang were both slightly surprised, looking at Old Master Ning.

”Sit down and talk,” Old Master Ning turned his back to wipe the corner of his eye, then asked, ”Tell me, what are your plans next?”
