Ning Zhiyuan, who was mentioned by Mrs. Lu, did not come to the Lu family to attend the banquet. Wherever he was, he was at his own home.
The Ning family is quieter than other families because there is only one master in the Ning family, and that is Ning Zhiyuan. Besides Ning Zhiyuan, there were two servants and two gardeners.
The two servants were responsible for cleaning the house, and they didn't even have to cook, because Ning Zhiyuan hadn't eaten at home since Ning Tong got married. The two gardeners are responsible for taking care of the flowers and trees in the yard.
He also didn't hire a driver, he likes to drive by himself, and he likes the thrill of galloping.
Occasionally, a few bodyguards would appear behind him, but they were not real bodyguards, but brothers from the Flame Gate.
At this moment, the hall of Ning's house was lit, which was rare. In the past, the room was pitch black at this time.
Ning Zhiyuan sat on the sofa, and beside him stood a strange man, who was reporting something to Ning Zhiyuan respectfully.
Ning Zhiyuan didn't speak all the time, just leaned against the back of the chair, but stared at the photo in his hand. There were two girls in the photo, they should be two sisters, because their appearances were seven or eight points similar, and one of them looked About six or seven years old, one about three or four years old.
The photo is black and white, and has been yellowed, showing a very old age.
"Young sect master, you still haven't found it, do you need to continue searching?" The strange man asked Ning Zhiyuan respectfully.
Ning Zhiyuan didn't answer right away, but looked up at the ceiling above his head. After a while, he closed his eyes again. When he opened them, there was a firm persistence in his eyes, and he said coldly: "Look, keep looking. .”
The strange man's expression was not too surprised, as if he had already guessed this result. But he still couldn't help but said: "Master Young Master, it's really hard to find the little girl in the photo based on the little information you gave us and this photo. Besides, after decades, the little girl When you grow up early, your appearance will definitely change."
Even if Huoyanmen has the most sound and advanced information network, they are not gods, who can know everything and find out everything.
Ning Zhiyuan only told them that the three or four-year-old girl in the photo was named "Lier" and had been adopted by the "Bo'ai Welfare Institute", but the Bo'ai Welfare Institute had disappeared in this era, and they could not be found at all. To the insider of the year. Even with this photo, finding someone in a sea of people is like looking for a needle in a haystack. It is really difficult to find that little girl, it depends on fate.
After pursing his lips again, Ning Zhiyuan still said in a persistent tone: "As long as I am alive, I will look for it. That is my mother's greatest wish during her lifetime. I must find her, unless she is no longer alive. .”
He is willing to promise the old man to become the young sect master of the Flame Gate, and to take over this mysterious Flame Gate in the future, because the Flame Gate has a powerful information network that can help him find someone.
The strange man responded respectfully: "The subordinate waits for others to continue searching. They will find the person in life, and the ghost in death. They will help the young sect master find her."
Ning Zhiyuan hummed, and waved his hand to signal the strange man to leave.
The strange man nodded respectfully, then turned and walked outside the house.
Suddenly Ning Zhiyuan was the only one left in the large hall, and it became more and more quiet.
Sitting upright, Ning Zhiyuan stood up, took the yellowed photo and walked to a table not far away. The table was long but not wide, and it was used to place his parents and Ning Tong photos of the deceased.
In Mu's house, all the photos of Ning Tong before he was alive were taken into his room by Mu Chen, and hung all over his room, he used such actions to soothe his wounded heart, imagining that Ning Tong had always lived in his world inside.
Just like this, Zhang Xiao hasn't seen a photo of Ning Tong since he moved into Mu's house, so he doesn't know what that pitiful woman looks like.
Ning Zhiyuan put the yellowed photo on the table, and a small photo frame was specially built on the table. The photo frame was laid flat, and the photo could only be placed in it, and could not be erected. After he put the photo into a small photo frame, he looked up at his mother's face with a loving smile. Ning Zhiyuan couldn't help reaching out and gently caressing the photo of his mother.
"mom."
He murmured, "Don't worry, I will help you realize your greatest wish in life. As long as she is still alive, I will find him. Even if she is not alive, I will also find her grave and her. descendants."
Mrs. Ning looked at him with a kind smile, as if she heard what he said.
Ning Zhiyuan looked at his father next to him again, wanted to say something but didn't know what to say to his father, and finally only uttered one sentence: "Dad, I'm very tired."
Father Ning's eyes are serious, and it can be seen that he was a strict father before his death. Ning Zhiyuan should have inherited his father's personality, while Ning Tong's gentleness and gracefulness had been inherited from his mother.
Finally, Ning Zhiyuan's eyes fell on the photo of his younger sister Ning Tong. Ning Tong in the posthumous photo was smiling, so she looked sweet and delicate. When Zhang Xiao smiled, she looked a lot like her. No, it's a little different, Ning Tong's smile is always gentle, but Zhang Xiao's smile is a little sly, she is also a sly girl.
To his sister, Ning Zhiyuan's heart hurts the most.
After his parents died of illness one after another, he was fifteen years old and his sister was nine years old. He and his sister depended on each other for life. With great difficulty, he managed to stabilize the company, raised his sister, and watched her find happiness. Who knew that her sister followed her parents in Jiuquan? Down.
Now his sister's only child is calling a stranger to be his mother, Ning Zhiyuan's heart aches every time he thinks about it. Sometimes he really wanted to strangle Zhang Xiao to death, and sometimes he tried his best to tolerate her for the sake of his niece.
Why, is it because Zhang Xiao and his sister are both sweet-looking people
"Tong Tong..."
Ning Zhiyuan called his sister's name, and felt his throat was blocked, unable to speak.
He stretched out his hand to hold the photo of his younger sister, and stroked the photo with his slender fingers. The voice and appearance of the younger sister seemed to be there yesterday, but today he is holding the photo of the photo and resenting the separation of yin and yang.
Ning Tong smiled at her brother, but it made her brother's eyes turn red.
It took a long time for Ning Zhiyuan to adjust his emotions, and gently put the photo of his younger sister back to its original place, then took another deep look at the three close relatives on the table, turned around and left.
The house is deserted, and he doesn't want to stay at home.
Without his parents' home, without his sister's home, he lost the taste of home, and he couldn't feel any warmth. After other people have been busy all day, they will have the care of their family members when they return home. What about him
All three of his closest relatives left him.
In this world, besides the offshoot relatives of the Xiao Xiangning Group, does he have any relatives? There is, but he hasn't found it yet.
It was the three or four-year-old girl in the yellowed photo.
But where is she now
