"I'm here this time, so maybe he has something else to do?"
Xu Mo had Song Yiming pass this message on to him.
It seems that it was at that auction that I learned that Shen Xingmian and Song Yiming were friends, and that Shen Xingmian was Nan Zhi's fiancé.
Xu Mo was worried that Nan Zhi wouldn't want to see him, so he started by approaching the man.
Nanzhi was somewhat reluctant. "Can I not go?"
Shen Xingmian said helplessly, "The Xu family and Song Yiming's family have business dealings. It's just a meeting. I won't let him hurt you."
Upon hearing this, Nanzhi buried her head in the man's chest, rolled her head around, and after a long while, said:
"All right."
It's Saturday.
Shen Xingmian drove with Nan Zhi to the appointment.
The address Xu Mo gave was the top floor of a famous Western restaurant in the city.
When Nan Zhi and Shen Xingmian arrived, Xu Mo was the only person on the top floor.
It seems he's booked the entire floor.
Upon seeing the two arrive, Xu Mo quickly stood up, his gaze falling on Nan Zhi.
His eyes welled up with emotion and even became moist.
This is his sister's child; even without a DNA test, it's obvious at a glance.
The moment Nan Zhi saw Xu Mo, she felt a sense of familiarity.
She frowned suspiciously but didn't say anything.
"Mr. Shen, thank you for gracing us with your presence."
Xu Mo said to Shen Xingmian.
Shen Xingmian said calmly, "Patriarch Xu, there's no need for this."
After speaking, he looked down at Nan Zhi, who was staring at Xu Mo, somewhat lost in thought.
After the three of them sat down...
Xu Mo then looked at Nan Zhi, leaving Nan Zhi somewhat puzzled.
"Please speak freely, Patriarch Xu."
Nanzhi's attitude was neither warm nor cold.
Upon hearing this, Xu Mo stared at Nan Zhi with a somewhat fervent gaze.
"Nanzhi, I am your uncle."
Nanzhi: "..."
Xu Mo didn't want to get straight to the point, but he was afraid that if he rambled on, he would become as annoying as Xu Chaoci, so he just got straight to the point.
Not to mention Nan Zhi, even Shen Xingmian was somewhat surprised.
“Master Xu, do you know what you’re saying? I have an uncle from the Xu family of Yuecheng.”
Xu Mo gave Nan Zhi a complicated look:
"It may be too sudden for you, but your mother is not a child of the Xu family. She was picked up from the sea."
As he spoke, he began to recall events from over forty years ago, when he was only nine years old and his sister was only five, when they were swept away by the waves.
It's a miracle she survived.
After hearing Xu Mo's words, Nan Zhi was shocked. Things she couldn't understand before suddenly became clear.
No wonder Xu Mo looked familiar; recalling his mother's photo, the two did indeed bear some resemblance.
Thinking about the attitude of the Xu family of Yuecheng towards her, Nanzhi understood.
It turns out that he was an outsider at all. No wonder Xu Jingzhi and Xu Yao's father both disliked him. Old Master Xu was also a little puzzled.
"I've called you here today to acknowledge you as my family. From now on, our Xu family will be your maternal family, and you can come back whenever you want."
Upon hearing this, Nan Zhi remained silent for a moment. After all, she was not the original owner of this body, so she didn't feel anything about this sudden family reunion.
Seeing that Nan Zhi remained silent, Xu Mo assumed that she still harbored resentment towards the Xu family, so he spoke up:
“Your aunt is a bit muddle-headed. I apologize for what she did to you before, and I hope you won’t hold it against her.”
Xu Mo adopted a very humble posture. As the head of the Xu family, he had probably never been so subservient to anyone before.
It is clear that his feelings for Nanzhi were genuine.
Nan Zhi waved her hand, "This has nothing to do with you, and you don't need to apologize. Besides, I've already calmed down."
Seeing that Nan Zhi said that, he never mentioned Mo Wenhui again.
They did ask what Nam Gyi liked to eat.
Nan Zhi picked out a few items and mentioned them, and Xu Mo's face lit up with an even brighter smile.
This is a Western restaurant, and we ended up ordering steak.
"Nanzhi, would you be willing to acknowledge the Xu family as your family?"
As he was leaving, Xu Mo asked another question. Nan Zhi was slightly taken aback, then looked up and smiled at Xu Mo:
"I need to think about that."
To be honest, Nanzhi was not very willing to get involved with the Xu family, but she was fine with the others.
She found it hard to accept Mo Yu and the Xu family's wife.
Once you accept it, you'll inevitably have to come into contact with those two people.
Xu Mo felt that her willingness to think about it was a big step forward, so he smiled and said:
"Then think it over carefully, and let me know when you've made up your mind."
Even after Nan Zhi and Shen Xingmian left, Xu Mo's excitement hadn't subsided.
I need to have a good talk with my son when I get home this time, and also tell Qingzhou that he'll find out about this sooner or later.
That evening.
After Xu Mo returned home, he told his eldest son and Qingzhou about it once they arrived.
A relaxed and smiling expression appeared on Xu Chaoci's face.
Xu Qingzhou looked completely bewildered, his gaze shifting between the two of them. "Dad, what you just said doesn't make sense to me?"
"What does Nam Zhi acknowledge? Who does she acknowledge?"
Xu Mo looked at him with a smile, "Nanzhi is the biological daughter of my long-lost sister. Who do you think I should acknowledge?"
Xu Qingzhou didn't react for a moment. After thinking for more than ten seconds, he opened his mouth in surprise:
"Nanzhi is my aunt's daughter, so she's my sister?"
Xu Chaoci glared at him. "She's your sister."
Xu Qingzhou: "..."
