Xu Mo took out a key and opened a cabinet.
Take out a wooden box from inside.
Upon opening the wooden box, a photograph was found inside.
He glanced at his eldest son and spoke to him:
“When I was very young, your grandparents were still alive. There’s something I’ve never told you: I have a younger sister, and you have an aunt.”
Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise appeared on Xu Chaoci's usually cold face.
“It’s just that when our family was caught in a typhoon, your aunt accidentally fell off the boat. They tried to find her, but they couldn’t. Everyone thought she was dead, and I thought so too.”
As he spoke, Xu Mo handed the only photo to Xu Chaoci, "Take a look at this, it shows our family of four."
Xu Chaoci took a look and met his legendary grandparents for the first time. His father said they had passed away before he got married.
They were very young; the father must be that little boy, smiling brightly.
The so-called aunt was probably just a little baby being held in the grandfather's arms.
At this moment, Xu Mo opened his phone again and showed Xu Chaoci the photos that had been sent from Xu Qingzhou's phone.
"Look at this person."
Xu Chaoci glanced at it, and a look of shock flashed in his eyes.
The person in the phone looks almost exactly like the grandmother in the photo.
"Dad, are you guessing that this girl is Aunt's daughter?"
Xu Mo nodded, "I thought your aunt was dead, but I never checked. But now, looking at this girl, I think maybe your aunt isn't dead."
Xu Chaoci nodded solemnly, "It is indeed possible. Let's investigate this thoroughly."
"As for what your mother said, I will investigate it carefully. According to Qingzhou, Nanzhi is Chinese, so I hope you can make a trip to China. In any case, we cannot let go of any clues."
Upon hearing this, Xu Chaoci nodded without hesitation:
"I know, but this matter is from a long time ago, so it will probably be difficult to investigate."
Xu Mo expressed his agreement:
"Go ahead and investigate. It's been so many years, and suddenly there's hope. I can wait."
After all, the Xu family has no influence in China.
It happened many years ago, so it will only be more difficult now.
It is estimated that it will take quite a while.
......
Nanzhi was unaware of what had happened to the Xu family, and she disdained to know.
Lately, she has completely adapted to life here.
Nanzhi also gleaned some insights from Master Qianmu's teaching methods.
Master Qianmu prefers to connect with real life.
He kept having Nanzhi observe and discover.
Even a wild grass by the roadside has its value.
But what is the value?
What Nanzhi can discover from this depends on her own eyes.
As a result, Nanzhi has been unconsciously observing people, creatures, and animals lately.
Over time, she sometimes gets unique inspiration from a cat.
Of course, with her current abilities, there are still many shortcomings that need to be improved and further training is required.
Time flies, and the Spring Festival is just around the corner.
Master Qianmu gave Nanzhi a break.
So Nan Zhi and Shen Xingmian started making arrangements to return to China.
The two of them left without hesitation.
Nanzhi did not inform her family in advance, intending to give them a surprise when she returned home.
However, ever since boarding the plane...
Nan Zhi felt that Shen Xingmian was acting strangely.
He looked like he was reading a book, just like always.
But he had been lingering on that page for ten minutes.
He also eats very slowly.
Nanzhi frowned:
"Shen Xingmian, what's wrong with you today?"
Shen Xingmian turned to look at Nan Zhi, pursed her lips, and said, "Nothing."
After saying that, he closed his eyes, leaned back in his chair, and fell asleep.
Nanzhi: "..."
Is this person acting strangely today?
Nanzhi was too lazy to pay attention to him, so she simply closed her eyes and rested.
Until we arrived at the airport in Beijing.
Seeing that Nan Zhi ignored him, Shen Xingmian did not continue to speak.
"Shen Xingmian, I'll go home by myself in a bit. You should go home early too, okay?"
Nanzhi glanced at him and said something.
Shen Xingmian: "......"
He remained silent for a few seconds before raising his head.
He gazed at Nanzhi with a cold expression.
"Do as you please."
Nan Zhi: "...Did you eat explosives today?"
Shen Xingmian: "......"
His expression remained unpleasant, and his tone was curt: "No."
Nan Zhi really didn't know what was wrong with him.
She rolled her eyes, but still stepped forward and took his hand.
Shen Xingmian looked down at her hand that was being held, and her expression softened slightly.
Nanzhi pulled him out of the airport.
The two bought their tickets a bit late; it was already past 7 p.m.
It was dark outside, and the wind was biting cold.
The wind was biting cold, and Nanzhi wrapped her coat tighter around herself, but she still felt cold.
The climate in Country M is like springtime right now.
Unlike the cold of Beijing, Nanzhi even wore a thick coat.
Who knew it would be this cold?
I miss my down jacket from home.
"I'll take you home."
Seeing Nanzhi's reaction, Shen Xingmian finally spoke a word.
He had already arranged for his driver to wait at the airport.
Without giving Nanzhi a chance to refuse, he pulled her into his car.
Nan Zhi wasn't being coy; she wasn't going to hail a taxi in the freezing cold.
