At the Ning Residence.
The head maid, Chunli, entered the study and bowed respectfully, reporting, "Young Master, Jiao Qinqin is looking for you."
She wore a look of disdain. Jiao Qinqin abandoned the Young Master without a word back then. Why was she seeking him out now? Was she being shameless?
"Jiao Qinqin?" Ning Yuting had almost forgotten that name. After a moment's recollection, he said, "Tell her I'm not available to see her."
Chunli hesitated, "Young Master, I've already said that, but she insists on seeing you. She threatened to go to Miss Qingyue if you refuse."
Ning Yuting's expression darkened, and after a pause, he ordered, "Bring her in."
"Yes, Young Master."
Led by Chunli, Jiao Qinqin approached the study. She looked around the Ning Residence as if she owned the place.
Chunli glanced at her with evident distaste. "Madam Liu, please wait here. Our Young Master is currently busy with something."
