Chapter 44 Gathering at Mu Ning Garden



As night falls, everything is quiet and silent.

Luxury cars drove into Mu Ning Garden. Jiang Linghao got out first. He did not go into the house immediately, but waited beside the car. The back door opened, and Jiang's father and old man Jiang got out of the car with serious faces.

There was another Jiang family business car in the back seat, but when the car stopped, it was Han Tianyu and his father Han Shuo who got out of the car, and Lu Zifan was driving.

Fu Linxiao, who was waiting at the door, respectfully welcomed everyone into the living room of the villa.

In the living room, Fu Linxiao's father Fu Lisen and Mr. Fu's father Fu Yandong were sitting on the sofa. Both of them looked unhappy. There was no extra politeness when they met, and they all took their seats.

Han Tianyu spoke first, "My elders, Zifan, Lin Xiao, and Ling Hao have always been good friends. We have been secretly investigating what happened to Ningning recently. We invited you all here now because, firstly, it involves little Ningning, and everyone is very worried. Secondly, the various things Ningning has encountered this time are related to the kidnapping of Aunt Fu decades ago."

Hearing Han Tianyu's words, Mr. Jiang, who was sitting upright, interrupted: "Tianyu, why are you so sure?"

Jiang Linghao hadn't told his grandfather about his previous investigation, only giving his father a general idea. Fearing that his grandfather, at his age, might not be able to handle the shock, he decided to take advantage of everyone present to reveal the truth, so he began to explain.

"Grandpa, we found a survivor of that gang and had someone hypnotize him. We learned from him that Chen Zirong didn't just want to get the land, but because Aunt Fu was the only daughter of the Jiang family."

When Mr. Jiang heard his grandson's answer, he frowned and looked towards Mr. Fu opposite him. Seeing that he looked embarrassed, he did not ask any further questions and just listened.

"Also, with my father's arrival today, I'm sure everyone is even more confused. Actually..."

Han Tianyu wanted to continue speaking, but was interrupted by his father.

"Let me tell you!"

Han Shuo's sudden voice attracted everyone's attention. When Mr. Fu saw the man in front of him, he was slightly startled. He smiled and exchanged a glance with Mr. Jiang, then said in a deep voice, "You are Nangong Shuo!"

Upon hearing this, Han Shuo nodded slightly to indicate his acknowledgment.

"I didn't expect that the old man still remembered me!"

Old Master Jiang looked at the middle-aged man in front of him, his eyebrows curved and a smile in his eyes.

"Your eyebrows and eyes haven't changed much since you were a child, and that red mole on your earlobe betrays you!"

Han Shuo touched his right ear awkwardly, then nodded with a deeper smile.

Old Master Fu looked at Han Shuo and Han Tianyu with loving eyes.

"I never thought that I would be able to see the descendants of your Nangong family again while I am still alive. I have no regrets at all!"

Hearing the old man's words, Fu Linxiao showed displeasure and stopped him: "Grandpa! Don't talk nonsense!"

Mr. Fu just laughed and didn't respond.

"Grandpa, you and Grandpa Jiang will surely live a long life, and we are gathering with old friends today!"

As early as when he returned to the imperial capital, Fu Linxiao asked Han Tianyu about Mr. Chu's identity. Since the old man Haicheng had expressed his opinion, Han Tianyu did not hide anything and told him everything. Mr. Chu has been living in Mu Ningyuan since he returned to the imperial capital, and today's meeting was also arranged by Fu Linxiao.

Hearing Fu Linxiao talking about old friends getting together, the old man on the sofa was very confused and was about to ask when Jiang Luoning's soft and pleasant voice came from the stairs behind him.

"Two old men, do you still recognize who this is?"

Upon hearing the voice, everyone stood up respectfully.

The two old men looked at the people who had stood up, confused, and then turned their heads to look at the sound. When they saw the old man Jiang Luoning was holding, they both stood up in shock. Mr. Fu was even more excited and paced forward. He raised his trembling hands and wanted to grab the person in front of him to prove that what he saw was not a dream! His lips moved slightly and he asked.

"Brother Yunchu, is that you?"

On the other hand, when Mr. Jiang saw the newcomer, he was a little bit at a loss, tears in his eyes, and he stood there for a long time, not daring to move forward. When he heard the old man opposite him say, "It's me!", he could no longer hold back his tears.

The old man walked down the stairs and looked at his two good friends whom he hadn't seen for a long time. It seemed like they were from another world, and his eyes couldn't help but turn red.

"Grandpa Fu, let's go over and sit down first." Jiang Luoning spoke up to break the dull atmosphere.

Mr. Fu nodded hurriedly and raised his hand to wipe away the tears on his face in panic.

Several people sat down one after another. After a long time, it was Mr. Jiang who took the lead in breaking the tranquility of the reunion.

"Yun Chu! Back then, you and your family left without a word! We were afraid something had happened to you, so we searched for you for a long time! But Muqiao told us that you just wanted to retire to the mountains and live a peaceful life!"

Faced with the sudden and long-lost concern, Mr. Chu felt inexplicably guilty. It was indeed him who left quietly back then. He never thought that there would be a day when he would come back to face them, but now that things have come to this, there is nothing to hide.

"I was forced to do what happened back then. We three old guys can talk about this slowly when we have time! The kids gathered us all together today because they have something important to discuss."

"Do you still remember the Helian family?"

When Mr. Jiang and Mr. Fu heard this, their expressions changed slightly and they nodded in unison.

After exchanging glances with the two elders, Mr. Chu raised his eyes to see the gazes of everyone in the living room staring at him. His expression dimmed slightly, and he spoke in a deep voice, "Perhaps it's really because of my kindness back then that I'm now aiding and abetting the evil!"
