Li Yuan's gaze fell on the black card.
This wasn't given to me by him.
In addition, there were the things Xiao Luo said to the old man—
Xiao Luo, you're not from an ordinary family in the capital, are you...?
“Uncle Ji,” Li Yuan said, his voice slightly hoarse.
Old Master Ji immediately stared at him.
"I want to find the place where Xiao Luo was last seen. Can you do that?"
"..." Old Master Ji paused for two seconds, then said blankly, "So many years have passed, and every place has changed a lot. Although my memory is very blurry, I still remember some things. Finding the last refuge for me and Miss Luo should not be a problem."
Li Yuan nodded: "Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Ji."
…………
I spent Christmas and New Year's Day with Gu Yibei in Country Y, and now there are less than three days left until the Chinese New Year.
Villa No. 1 was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations. Since Xi Luo's "death", Li Yuan had never celebrated the Chinese New Year again, and rarely celebrated such a festive holiday.
Now that his daughter has been found, Li Yuan's long-dormant and cold heart seems to have felt warmth again and started beating again.
"This hangs here, and the couplets must be pasted neatly, you know? And the paper-cut window decorations too..."
It was rare for the old man to be so happy. Li Yuan was back, and it felt as if he had returned to the days twenty years ago when he was Li Yuan and Xi Luo's butler, a time that was fulfilling, simple, and joyful.
When people are happy, their spirits will be much better. It was clear that the old man was really happy, so Li Yuan gave him the job of decorating the villa before the New Year.
The old man regained his butler-like demeanor, methodically directing everyone to get things done.
The Western maid standing nearby, holding paper-cut window decorations and couplets, was speechless.
What is that old man saying?
"Grandpa Ji!" A cheerful voice rang in his ears. Grandpa Ji looked towards the door and saw Xing Minggao and his family of three arriving with gifts.
Upon seeing Xing Fei, Grandpa Ji beamed from ear to ear: "It's Xiao Fei!"
"Mmm!" Xing Fei put the gift she was holding aside: "Tomorrow is New Year's Eve. My parents know that Nan Nan has found her father, so they have to come over."
Xing Fei glanced at the maid beside her: "Grandpa Ji, are you instructing them on their work?"
"Yes." The old man shrugged, a troubled expression on his face. "The people the young master brought seem to not understand what I'm saying."
Xing Fei nodded and immediately gave instructions to the maid in fluent English.
The maid finally understood, nodded, and went to get busy.
Xing Minggao and his wife caught up from behind.
"Old Master Ji."
Xing Minggao shook hands with the old man: "Your health is quite good now, isn't it?"
Xing Minggao also knew about the old man's accident.
"It's fine," said Old Master Ji.
The two chatted happily, and Madam Xing laughed heartily beside them: "Nan Nan is a smart and sensible child, but it's a pity she's such a pitiful child. They say a child without parents is like a blade of grass. Nan Nan has heard countless rumors about her background. Fortunately, she has weathered the storms and seen the sunshine. This child has finally found her biological father."
Grandpa Ji nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes..."
Xing Minggao stood there for a while without seeing anyone, so he asked, "Where are Nan Nan's dad and Nan Nan?"
"Our young master and Nan Nan are upstairs waiting. I'll go call them right away."
With that, the old man went upstairs.
………
Upstairs in the study, Ji Zhinan sat at his desk, with a computer on it.
