Seeing Nangong Yan being so anxious, Ning Meng Yao found it really weird: “Father, is there something you’re hiding from me?”
Nangong Yan looked at Ning Meng Yao and shook his head: “You can’t get involved in this matter. Father will leave this item with you, they will never think that I’ve passed it to you.”
Since Ning Meng Yao could be said to be sent away by those people, they were aware of what she had on her at that time.
Ning Meng Yao looked at the necklace passed into her hands, she furrowed her brows tightly: “Father, tell me clearly, what does this necklace represent?”
Nangong Yan gently sighed: “I’m not too sure about it, but I know it’s strongly related to Xiao Empire.”
”Do you know who is the people searching for me and my mother?” Ning Meng Yao looked at Nangong Yan and asked in a serious manner.
Nangong Yan opened his mouth and finally nodded: “Yes, even I can’t provoke those people. Even your current forces have no way of going against them, so Yao’er, please stop asking about it, alright?” He did not hope for his daughter to be related to those people, he also did not hope for anything to happen to her because of this matter.
Ning Meng Yao looked at Nangong Yan, she still wanted to continue talking but was stopped by Qiao Tian Chang.
Qiao Tian Chang shook his head at Ning Meng Yao, based on how Nangong Yan was acting, he would not say anything else no matter how much she asked. If so, it was better for them to investigate it themselves.
”Father-in-law, there are some things that cannot be given in. You said that by not allowing Yao Yao to participate, she would be able to stay away from it. Those people had begun investigating Yao Yao, I think that she would be dragged in not long after,” Qiao Tian Chang looked at Nangong Yan as he said in a serious manner.
Nangong Yan opened his mouth but finally remained silent.
He understood Qiao Tian Chang’s reasoning, even so, he did not wish for Ning Meng Yao to face danger.
”Father-in-law, think about it, or why don’t you tell us what is going on after we find mother-in-law,” Qiao Tian Chang looked seriously at Nangong Yan who lowered his head while remaining silent.
”Alright,” Seeing the two of them being so serious, Nangong Yan knew that they would find ways to search for the answer even if he did not tell them. If that was so, he might as well tell them when the time comes, saving them the trouble of running around and offending those people.
With such thoughts, Nangong Yan looked at Qiao Tian Chang and Ning Meng Yao: “Before that, you all must promise me not to investigate this matter.”
The two of them looked at each other and nodded: “Alright.”
Nangong Yan looked at Ning Meng Yao: “Yao’er has grown up.”
Ning Meng Yao smiled at Nangong Yan: “Nothing will happen to mother, don’t worry,” Ning Meng Yao looked at Nangong Yan and consoled him.
Nangong Yan smiled and nodded: “I also believe that nothing will happen to your mother.”
The three of them stayed in the study room for a very long time. They only walked out when the sky was almost dark. As for Yu Feng and the others, they had long returned to Situ Xuan’s residence.
A few days after Nangong Yan’s arrival, Qing Shuang’s master had also arrived. After Old Man Hei arrived, he looked at Nan Yu in a provocative manner, he then mumbled in dissatisfaction after a long time: “How could you little fella steal away my precious student from me?” Old Man Hei was feeling dissatisfied.
Qing Shuang’s eyelids jumped, she had no way of handling her master’s temperament.
”Master, Nan Yu is a good person.”
Old Man Hei looked at his own student, he said while hating iron for not being steel: “You foolish girl, your elbow bend outwards.”
Ning Meng Yao covered her mouth and laughed: “Grandpa Hei, why don’t you give it a try and see if your elbow can bend inwards?”
”Hey, you smelly girl, you did not even invite me when you were married, right now, you want to bicker with me upon seeing this old man?” Hearing Ning Meng Yao’s voice, Old Man Hei forgot about Qing Shuang and Nan Yu, he jumped in front of Ning Meng Yao, he was so angry he gritted his teeth.
Ning Meng Yao raised her eyebrows and looked at Old Man Hei: “I remembered when I was getting married, you seemed to have run to some mountain, right? Now, you’re complaining to me?”
Old Man Hei choked, he knew he was in the wrong, he took out something from his pocket: “Fine, this is for you,” He passed two bottled of pills to Ning Meng Yao: “This is a treasure, keep it carefully.”
