Chapter 112

Subsequently, Ning's mother was even more excited and hugged the woman.

Ning An and the others couldn't help but show a strange expression on their faces.

It seemed they hadn't expected it to be such a coincidence that Ning's mother would run into an acquaintance.

After all, thirty years had passed!

Even the most familiar people would fade away under the passage of time.

There weren't necessarily many people who could remember Ning's mother.

Not to mention that the Shucheng Base was not small; how could they run into someone so easily?

Ning An and the others naturally wouldn't be in a hurry.

After all, in the whole family, Ning's mother was the eldest.

Even if Ning's mother wasn't any kind of martial artist.

As for Zhong Jianyuan, he wouldn't say anything at all.

But he could still see that this person was the relatively filial type.

In his heart, his rating of Ning An increased by quite a bit.

Because the Shenxia Federation turned a blind eye, many martial artist families had illegitimate children.

Resource allocation became a major dispute.

Many family relationships were not that friendly.

On this matter, even the Shenxia Federation found it hard to correct anything.

Who let them be the ones to condone martial artists having many offspring?

And this matter did indeed make the aptitude of many of the new generation much better.

Especially for high-grade martial artists like Ning An.

They even encouraged having more children!

It was a pity that Ning An didn't have that many thoughts at the moment, preferring to let things take their natural course.

Ten minutes later!

Ning's mother and her old friend Jin Yan finally temporarily broke away from their reminiscing.

Anyway, Ning An and the others felt that the two of them could have reminisced for days and nights.

Ning's mother was also a bit embarrassed at this moment.

Meeting an old friend had caused her to forget that her son and the others were still on the side.

"This is my old friend, Jin Yan!"

Ning's mother began to speak!

It turned out that this woman named Jin Yan and Ning's mother had met at school over thirty years ago.

The two had been desk-mates for several years.

Even back then, when Ning's mother and Ning An's father were together,

this Jin Yan had contributed quite a bit.

It was just that after cutting ties with her family, Ning's mother had gone far away to Qingshan.

They had never met again!

It wasn't until now, over thirty years later, that she saw Ning's mother again.

For this Jin Yan to be a cleaner in such a large mall could be considered a decent job.

Of course, it was also possible that the Shucheng Base was trying to take care of some impoverished people.

After all, those from ordinary martial artist families wouldn't come to do these relatively less respectable jobs.

It was clear that this Jin Yan belonged to the ranks of the impoverished, and it seemed she hadn't had a very easy life these years.

One could tell just from the wrinkles on her face...

Although she was from the same era as Ning's mother, a discerning person could still see a ten-year gap.

After Ning An was admitted to the Martial Arts University, because the school had some subsidies,

Ning's mother didn't have to work as hard as before!

Later, after Ning An became a martial artist, she basically only had the task of taking care of Ning Xiaonuan.

As Ning An's cultivation base improved, she became more and more elegant.

After all, he had exchanged for quite a few elixirs for this mother of his.

The elixirs that ordinary people could use were of high value.

Under these circumstances, Ning's mother actually seemed to be growing younger.

"Auntie Jin, hello!"

Ning An still gave his mother plenty of face and spoke.

Wen Zhiqiao and the others also spoke up one after another.

For them, since Ning An had spoken, they naturally couldn't avoid it.

Including Zhong Jianyuan, the fourth-grade martial artist.

However, this Auntie Jin clearly didn't recognize Ning An's identity.

For ordinary people of advanced age, they paid relatively little attention to the affairs of the Shenxia Federation.

They focused more on their own lives.

This couldn't be said to be wrong; after all, living was also a part of the Shenxia Federation.

"Jingli, is this your son!?"

Jin Yan's face also revealed a look of nostalgia as she said.

Seeing Ning An was like seeing his father.

Mainly because she had previously learned from Jingli that Ning An's father had passed away many years ago.

However, just at this moment!

A manager hurried over and came before Zhong Jianyuan.

"Brother Zhong, I didn't expect you to come to the mall!"

The manager's face was unusually sycophantic as he spoke.

After the words fell, it left Jin Yan stunned.

Because she knew this manager, who was usually arrogant and conceited.

Yet now he was so sycophantic!

It was as if he wasn't the person she knew.

Jin Yan was not stupid; it was clear she realized that the family of her old friend didn't seem simple.

"Cough, cough!"

Zhong Jianyuan coughed and signaled to the person beside him with his eyes.

Mainly because this manager was a distant relative of his.

Of course, being able to become a mall manager also involved some of his own connections.

It was just that he usually had good judgment; why didn't he have any insight this time?

Fortunately, this manager also noticed Ning An and his party.

"May I ask who these seniors are!?"

This manager was not stupid, and having received Zhong Jianyuan's hint, he hurriedly spoke.

"Ning An!"

Ning An glanced at the manager indifferently and said.

He saw the cat-and-mouse game between Zhong Jianyuan and this manager.

It was very clear that there was quite a connection.

Out of respect for Zhong Jianyuan's enthusiasm, he didn't mind speaking up.

What's more, his mother and this Auntie Jin seemed to have a good relationship.

Although he had people investigate before, it was impossible to investigate so thoroughly.

He also hadn't expected his mother to meet an acquaintance here.

The manager was immediately plunged into confusion.

Mainly because this name seemed somewhat familiar.

"Senior Ning is a pillar of our Southwest!"
