Chapter 1345 The Returnee's Notes 419
Xie Ning turned around when she heard the noise, and then saw Xiao Xi standing at the door with a cat at her feet. Black Egg was dressed in pink and looked like it had nothing to live for.
"What's wrong?"
Xie Ning picked up Xiao Xi and went back to her room. She had nothing else to do tonight, so she could get some rest.
Xiao Xi silently hugged Xie Ning's neck, her lips curving downwards, but she couldn't help but tear up, "I miss Master."
Although Xie Ning tried his best to spend time with her and teach her magic, she still saw Xie Ning very little. In the empty villa, only the tutor and housekeeper she had hired kept her company.
The housekeeper said that her master had too much work to do, and she needed to behave herself.
But Xiaoxi is already very well-behaved. She studies hard and gets full marks on every exam. She also learns magic very well.
She was just vaguely uneasy, so she wanted to stay close to her master.
In the end, Xiaoxi didn't say anything, but hugged Xie Ning even tighter, savoring this warmth.
Xie Ning patted Xiao Xi on the back, then carried her back to the room. Hei Dan licked its paws but didn't follow. Instead, it ran to the kitchen to find something to eat.
The family cooks love to feed it, and it has become quite plump compared to before. However, it is still very agile, as it leads its underlings to catch mice hidden in the villa or climb trees to hunt birds every day.
Its little brothers are of course stray cats, but the kittens don't accept that title. The world is their home; they are not strays.
Xie Ning's room has a large floor-to-ceiling window, from which you can see the garden. The flowers, which are bright and beautiful during the day, appear particularly serene at night.
After asking Xiaoxi about her studies for a while, Xie Ning began to teach her magic.
The child's talent was so great that it shocked her. Even when she was away, Xiaoxi would touch the books she wrote in Braille to learn on her own.
Having raised this child, Xie Ning naturally felt responsible. To this end, she even went to learn Braille and then compiled the Taoist books she had learned, along with her own insights, for Xiao Xi.
So that even after I'm gone, Xiaoxi can still learn on her own.
Although preparations had been made, things are unpredictable, and Xie Ning could not guarantee that everything would go perfectly, so of course, he had to arrange all these things in advance.
Xiao Xi sat next to Xie Ning, her face beaming with happiness, feeling that the garden looked especially beautiful today.
"Xiaoxi?"
"Um?"
"How about your master gives you a courtesy name?"
What is a character?
"A given name is used to distinguish a person's appearance, while a courtesy name is used to express their virtues. This is also a beautiful expectation that elders have for their younger generation."
"Does Master have a courtesy name?"
"Yes, Changning is my master's courtesy name."
"It sounds nice, Xiaoxi wants it too."
Xie Ning rested his chin on Xiao Xi's head, "With jade-green branches reaching for the sky, and a humble heart at ease, I wish to follow the young girl's youthful spirit. May my heart never wither with the passing years."
"How about calling out to Buqiu?"
"good."
Xiao Xi felt dizzy. Her master was so gentle. She was lucky to have met her master.
After putting Xiaoxi to sleep, Xie Ning was also going to sleep, but when she saw her phone screen light up, she still glanced at the message.
Sect Leader Fang said that their previous ordeal was orchestrated by someone behind the scenes, so he sent people to look for them, and they have now found some clues.
But Xie Ning felt a sense of expectation when she saw the address sent by the other party, because she had been there not long ago, and it was the research institute that housed those children.
Judging from the situation, it's likely that the children are the ones manipulating things, but with so many children, who can tell which one it is?
However, the biggest suspicion still lies with the brother and sister. But according to the information sent by the researchers, the brother and sister are very well-behaved. They have no contact with the outside world, and there are some special personnel there. No abnormalities have been found.
But if it really was done by those kids, just the fact that they could control it from such a distance would give us an idea of their strength, so it's normal that they hid it well.
If it weren't for Sect Master Fang's ingenious plan, we probably wouldn't have been able to find this place.
Even if Xie Ning had doubts, he couldn't be sure.
It is currently impossible to determine which of the children it is.
