Chapter 358: Approaching the Truth



"I don't know, I don't know anything! I don't know!"

Ning Lan kept repeating this sentence and pulling her hair. It was obvious that she was sick.

Ning Xi thought so at first, but after looking at it for a while, her heart sank.

"I don't know, I don't know..." Ning Lan held her head and repeated to herself.

Ning Xi gradually loosened her clenched fists, "Aunt, even if you don't tell me, I will find out."

Her heart was shaken again, and Ning Lan could no longer conceal the panic and tension in her eyes.

However, she lowered her head and Ning Xi didn't notice her emotions.

After saying this, Ning Xi did not stay any longer and turned around and walked out.

Listening to her leaving footsteps, Ning Lan's heart finally settled down. However, before she could completely relax, Ning Xi, who had walked to the door, suddenly turned back and looked at her and said, "By the way, do you know Liu Xisheng?"

Hearing this name, no matter how strong Ning Lan's composure was, she couldn't help but startle, her legs went weak, and she fell directly to the ground.

But she reacted quickly, simply fell to the ground, holding her head and continuing to shout that she didn't know.

Ning Xi looked at her for a while, said nothing more, and turned away.

It was not until the footsteps completely disappeared in the corridor that Ning Lan's curled up body slowly relaxed.

She lay on the ground, her heart beating like a drum, and her mind was full of Ning Xi's questions.

Liu Xisheng...how did she know this person?

Could it be that Ning Xi has been investigating these things for a long time?

Thinking of this, Ning Lan shuddered all over and quickly got up again.

Stepping on the mess on the floor, he quickly ran to the bedroom and packed a bag.

However, after she finished packing, she thought of something and did not leave in a hurry. Instead, she quickly closed the door and waited.

Ning Xi's heart was far from as calm as she appeared on the surface. That thought kept circling in her head, and the more she thought about it, the more frightened she felt.

Why did her father disappear, and what role did Ning Lan play in it?

And what about mom?

Does she know what Ning Lan did? Did she leave anything behind?

Countless questions kept popping up, making her want to go back to her hometown right now and find out for herself what had happened to them.

But in the end, reason suppressed those impulses.

Because it was impossible for her to go back immediately, and she knew that with her own abilities, even if she went back, she would not be able to find anything for a while, which would be a waste of time.

However, she also has a good target right now, that is Aunt Zhao.

Judging from her conversation with Ning Lan, she must have known it was,

However, she didn't know where Aunt Zhao lived at the moment, so after thinking about it, she called Xiang Chuannan.

First, I wanted to tell him about my discovery, and second, I wanted him to find out where Aunt Zhao lived.

Xiang Chuannan was silent for a while after listening, and then said, "Okay, I'll check it out right away, but I just received news about Liu Xisheng.

In the past, he and your uncle-in-law Zhao Haicheng seemed to have done business together."

Xiang Chuannan got the news and was about to tell her, but he didn't expect her to call him first.

"Zhao Haicheng..."

"Yes, when Zhao Haicheng was young, he went to N City to do business and worked as a middleman for pornographic discs. Liu Xisheng was his subordinate.

"It's just that the stuff they were selling wasn't anything special, so they were severely punished. Liu Xisheng even spent three months in prison, about nine months before your father disappeared. When he got out, he stopped doing it." Xiang Chuannan said.

Ning Xi didn't expect that Xiang Chuannan would find out so much information so quickly.

According to what he said, Liu Xisheng still had contact with Zhao Haicheng after Ning Lan and Zhao Haicheng got married, so Ning Lan had such a big reaction when she mentioned this name just now. She must know Liu Xisheng.

I just don't know what happened between them and her father.

"Brother, let's go find Aunt Zhao first and ask her."

"Um."

The Xiang family has always been very efficient. Ning Xi had just left Ning Lan and had not yet returned to the hospital when she received another call from Xiang Chuannan.

"I found the people and brought them here. You can come directly to me."

"Okay!" Ning Xi immediately changed direction after hearing that and went as Chuannan said.

Aunt Zhao and her husband Liu Yunlai were stopped and brought here before they even arrived at their rented house.

When Ning Xi arrived at the place Xiang Chuannan mentioned, Aunt Zhao and her husband inside were already scared out of their wits.

The place arranged by Xiang Chuannan was a warehouse belonging to the Xiang family at the river transport terminal. He had arrived first and was standing by the car waiting. When he saw Ning Xi driving over on a motorcycle, his eyes lit up slightly and then he smiled.

"So you can drive this?"

"Yeah, I learned it before." Ning Xi smiled at him and then asked, "Where are they?"

"He's locked up inside. Don't show up for now. I'll go and ask him." Xiang Chuannan said.

They also have their own way of interrogating people, and Aunt Zhao knows Ning Xi's identity. If she shows up, it would be bad if she were to be bitten back.

Ning Xi thought about it, agreed to his suggestion, and then followed him in.

"Woo woo, who are you guys? Why are you arresting us? We are just honest people and have never done anything bad!"

"Yes, yes, we are just honest people!"

Aunt Zhao and Liu Yunlai were thrown into a corner. Although they were not tied up, they were too scared to move in front of so many bodyguards from the Xiang family. They just huddled together and shivered.
