Li Ying understood Ye Jingchi's thoughts and patted the back of his hand: "Whether you forgive him or not is your business. What he does is his business. Giving him a chance is also a kind act. He is doing these things to seek psychological comfort."
Ye Jingchi naturally knew Song Younian's guilty conscience and wanted to express his guilt through his actions.
"I know."
Ye Jingchi wouldn't wallow in such sentimentality; his immediate priority was finding Nan Huaiyu.
Finding Nan Huaiyu will reveal who the local tyrant is.
However, this will take time and the process will be difficult.
Li Ying accompanied Sister-in-law Xiumei to the Nan family again to treat Xiuying. Xiuying's mindset had not changed, and she was still as weak and listless as ever.
Li Ying took out Nan Huaiyu's photo and handed it to Xiuying.
"Take a look at this, do you recognize it?"
Xiuying grabbed the photo, stunned for a long time before asking with trembling lips, "Where did you get this?"
"You don't need to worry about that. Just tell me, do you know this person?"
Xiuying nodded emphatically: "This is a photo of Huaiyu. It was taken when he was working in the countryside. He specially sent me a copy back then, and I still have it."
Xiuying got out of bed, took out a photo album from the drawer, opened it, and found a photo that was exactly the same as the one in front of her.
"Look, it's him."
Li Ying nodded slightly: "If it is him, then I can tell you that he may not be in Hong Kong."
"If he's not in Gangcheng, then where is he?" Xiuying asked anxiously.
"Currently, someone has seen him at the Feng family's residence; he is one of Feng Siguang's men."
Li Ying explained herself so clearly because she wanted to know the relationship between the Nan family and the Feng family. Only by knowing this could she determine Nan Huaiyu's whereabouts.
"Why is he at the Feng family's house when he's perfectly fine?" Xiuying wondered.
Li Ying could tell that Xiuying seemed to know nothing, perhaps not even what Nan Huaiyu had done in the countryside.
Li Ying didn't say much, only telling Xiuying to take good care of herself before leaving the Nan family.
After they came out, Sister-in-law Xiumei stopped Li Ying and asked, "Did you see Nan Huaiyu?"
“Sister-in-law Xiumei, this photo belongs to Diudiu. She says the person in the photo is her father. I didn’t tell your cousin this because I was afraid she couldn’t handle it. But we don’t know what Nan Huaiyu is doing in the Feng family yet.”
Xiumei's sister-in-law's face darkened immediately upon hearing this: "What? He had a child outside the marriage? What about my cousin then?"
"I think you'd better tell your cousin about this first."
"Li Ying, tell me, aren't all men the same? They're not satisfied with one at home, so they have to find someone outside to have their child? It's infuriating! I'll talk to Xiuying about this when I have the chance. I can't let Xiuying be so confused and still think about taking medicine to have a child for the Nan family. It's just so stupid!"
Li Ying was speechless, realizing she had been too talkative.
"Yingying." Old Qian walked over.
"Master!"
"Come with me to give Old Master Nan acupuncture; his condition has improved recently," Old Qian said.
Li Ying nodded and told Sister-in-law Xiumei to go back first. Li Ying then followed Old Qian to the front yard of the Nan family, to the room of the old master of the Nan family, where she gave the old master acupuncture.
While I was getting acupuncture, I heard arguing in the yard.
They were arguing fiercely.
Old Nan sighed: "Tell me, isn't life a maze? Years ago, I thought having many children meant many blessings, but now these brothers are fighting tooth and nail over a factory, showing no brotherly affection whatsoever."
Li Ying listened attentively without offering any opinions, because it really had nothing to do with her, and she couldn't say anything inappropriate.
Mr. Qian simply echoed him with some meaningless remarks.
It's obvious that smart people don't get too involved in other people's family affairs.
"It's one thing for others to treat me perfunctorily, but now even you are treating me perfunctorily!" Old Nan looked at Old Qian with deep sorrow in his eyes.
Mr. Qian smiled ingratiatingly and said, "I'm just a guest in your home. Saying too much won't help, and saying too little won't make any difference."
"Old Qian, is it alright if I hand the Nan family over to you?" Old Nan suddenly said.
Old Qian hurriedly waved his hand: "Please don't think like that. With so many children and grandchildren in your Nan family, if you hand over such a huge family business to me, wouldn't that be putting me in a very difficult position?"
Nan Lao pointed at Qian Lao: "You just don't want to help me."
“The Nan family has so many outstanding children and grandchildren, so why do you insist that I be the bad guy?” Old Qian disagreed with this idea no matter what.
After the acupuncture was finished, the arguing in the courtyard stopped. Li Ying left with Old Man Qian, and the Nan family rushed into the house to check on Old Master Nan's condition.
Only Nan Zhibo remained standing in the courtyard. When he saw Mr. Qian and Li Ying come out, he went to greet them.
"Uncle Qian, Comrade Li Ying, how is my father?"
“It’s normal to feel unwell as you get older. Judging from Elder Nan’s health, he should live for several more years,” Li Ying said casually.
"That's good."
"Mr. Nan, may I ask you about your son, Nan Huaiyu?" Since I've come all this way to the Nan family, it's only right that I inquire about some things.
"Huaiyu? Sure, let's talk in the living room."
Li Ying followed Nan Zhibo to the living room, and the two sat down.
Li Ying could tell that Nan Zhibo was a very composed person, meticulous in his work and thoughtful in his speech. Such a person was very dangerous once he developed ambition.
"Comrade Li Ying, I don't quite understand why you're asking about Huaiyu."
Li Ying didn't hide anything and told Nan Zhibo about the people Diudiu saw at the Feng family's house, and showed him the photos.
"This is Huaiyu's photo!"
Nan Zhibo was surprised, holding the photo, and asked in astonishment, "You mean Huaiyu might be with the Feng family?"
"This is just my speculation, but the child is too young and may be wrong. You said Huaiyu went to Hong Kong, I still think Mr. Nan should go to Hong Kong to look for Nan Huaiyu to confirm whether he is in Hong Kong or not."
It's better to let the Nan family find it themselves; at least it will save the police a lot of their time and effort.
Nan Zhibo fell into deep thought, gripping the photo tightly: "Huaiyu is a very opinionated boy. We didn't approve of him going to the countryside to work, but he insisted on going. He stayed in the countryside for three years. After he came back, he got married, but only a little over a year after the marriage, he insisted on going to Hong Kong. At the time, I thought he was just going there to do business. I never expected it to be like this."
Li Ying listened quietly until Nan Zhibo finished speaking, then got up to say goodbye. Before leaving, she took the photos with her because they belonged to Diudiu, and she needed to return them to him.
Nan Zhibo is indeed very shrewd. He never mentioned the Feng family, so he must be unaware of any grudges between the Nan family and the Feng family.
Li Ying didn't particularly care about these things; as long as the Nan family was willing to help, that was enough.
To Li Ying's surprise, the next day, people from the Feng family came looking for none other than Li Ying.
The person who contacted Li Ying was a very fashionable girl.
"You're Ye Jingchi's wife?"
