"OK then."
Nan Shu felt a pang of sympathy when she thought of Old Master Nan living alone in the old house and his poor health.
Nan Punian's eyes lit up, and he took out his phone.
She ignored the 99+ messages from her grandfather in the 'Shushu's Guardian' family group and made a video call to him.
The video call was connected in less than two seconds.
“Shushu…”
Grandpa Nan was all smiles and looked very kind, but when he first saw Nan Punian, his smile froze and his disdain was obvious.
Nan Pu Nian: ...
Nan Punian handed the phone to Nan Shu, who took it, and the old man's smile brightened again.
"Grandpa Nan."
"Why!!!"
Grandpa Nan's smile was so wide it almost reached his ears. It would be even better if the character "Nan" could be removed.
Grandpa Nan looked at Nan Shu, his eyes filled with emotion.
Yes, they look alike!
Why didn't he think of that at the time?
Old Master Nan thought.
Perhaps it's because of the many expectations we've had over the past two decades that we've experienced so many disappointments.
therefore.
When he heard that the person had been found, Mr. Nan's first reaction was, "Impossible!"
He was prepared that he might never find it before he died.
It wasn't until he saw the report that Mr. Nan believed it.
For the first time, Mr. Nan, who had never believed in gods or Buddhas, felt that there was a plan and a destiny in the dark.
As he thought about it, Old Master Nan's eyes involuntarily reddened.
He thought that his son and daughter-in-law could finally rest in peace.
Even if he's gone now, he can still give them an explanation when they get down there.
"Grandpa Nan, what's wrong?"
Seeing that the old man looked like he was about to cry after only a few words, Nan Shu frowned and asked with concern, turning to look at Nan Punian with a questioning look.
A suppressed cough sounded, very faint, almost inaudible.
Grandpa Nan finally realized what was happening, raised his hand to touch the corner of his eye, and said, "It's nothing, it's nothing. I just suddenly remembered some things from the past."
Grandpa Nan glanced to the side and said, "Your Uncle Zhu has caught a cold."
This explanation has a rather obvious, "I'm trying to hide something" feel to it.
Zhu Changbai, who was watching the commotion from the sidelines, was like: ?
"Shushu, how have you been lately? Has Anian been bullying you? Is work tiring?"
When Grandpa Nan first heard about Nan Shu's job, he felt sorry for the young girl, who was working such a dangerous job all by herself. She was only in her early twenties and had to work overtime every day, dealing with those dark emotions. Now that he knew that Nan Shu was his granddaughter, he felt even more sorry for her.
But he also knew that Nan Shu was a very opinionated child, and moreover, Nan Shu had not yet fully accepted this identity, so Old Master Nan could not say much.
Nan Shu knew that Grandpa Nan was concerned about her, and she felt comforted. She answered his questions patiently one by one.
Nan Punian stood to the side, watching Nan Shu.
His sister.
Hehe (*^▽^*)!
……
After chatting for about half an hour, Grandpa Nan reluctantly hung up the phone.
Seeing his dejected look, Zhu Changbai, unusually serious, comforted him, "Uncle Nan, don't worry."
Grandpa Nan gave a soft "hmm".
He's not in a hurry. Things are good as they are now. The person has been found and is safe and sound. That's enough.
"Grandpa, we'll be going now. Please take good care of yourself."
Nan Yannian spoke up.
Grandpa Nan glanced at the two brothers and waved his hand, "Go on, go on." He now had a granddaughter, and he couldn't stand the sight of two grandsons.
Nan Yannian didn't care about being disliked by his grandfather, and the two brothers left the room side by side.
The temperature in Beijing hadn't warmed up yet, and there had been a heavy snowfall a few days ago. Nan Sinian tucked his hands into his sleeves, looking just like an old man strolling around the village entrance, not at all like a movie star.
"Brother, I want a vacation."
Nan Si Nian said.
Nan Yannian paused and turned to look at him.
Nan Sinian raised his hand and pressed his temple. "The doctor said I need to rest and recuperate so that I can recover faster."
That acting was terrible...
Nan Yannian's lips twitched. "Coincidentally, I just talked to your psychologist a few days ago. He told me about another treatment method. Since resting for so long didn't have any effect, why not try something else?"
“Sometimes insomnia isn’t caused by stress or anxiety; another reason might be that you’re too idle. That’s why I enrolled you in a finance class. If you don’t want to take on acting roles, learning more about management will help me out at the company in the future.”
Nan Sinian: ...
He stopped pretending and pulled his hands back into his sleeves. "Brother, I've already bought the villa in front of Shushu's house. I just want to be closer to Shushu and cultivate our sibling relationship."
Nan Yannian frowned.
"Brother, don't play dumb with me. You're the buyer of the building next to Shushu's, aren't you?"
"next door?"
Nan Yannian frowned. "Isn't that you next door?"
He was too late; he bought the apartment two doors down from the one next door.
No…
Nan Sinian shook his head, immediately realizing something was wrong, and the two brothers exchanged a glance.
If it wasn't them... then who could it be?
……
Because of work, even when we had a big meal, no one ordered alcohol.
But in the end, everyone was so full that they practically had to hold their stomachs as they left the restaurant.
The brigade didn't have much work; aside from Zhang Mingxia's case, there was only that serial murder case.
After committing the crime, the murderer seemed to realize that he had been exposed, and half a month passed without any further action.
Nan Shu helped with some work and then left work early.
As I approached my villa, I saw a truck with the sign "Huo Ban Ban" (meaning "moving truck") parked in the community passageway. The trunk door was open, and staff members in blue uniforms, wearing masks and hats, were orderly moving furniture into the villa next door.
Nan Shu's work hours are not fixed, and she rarely sees her neighbors. Once, she saw a man in his thirties or forties carrying a briefcase walk into the villa next door.
It seems the house has been rented out?
"Xiaoshu."
Just then, a familiar voice sounded behind her. Nan Shu was startled and turned around.
Look at the person coming.
"Brother Jingxing?"
The man was dressed in a black overcoat with a waistcoat underneath, exuding an air of sophistication, and was pushing a suitcase.
Are you in Hangzhou on a business trip?
A hint of surprise and confusion flashed across Nan Shu's eyes.
There don't seem to be any hotels around here... within a kilometer radius.
"Hmm... there's a project in Hangzhou, so I might need to stay there for a month or two."
Kui Jingxing said with a smile.
"So you're staying at a hotel?"
"I don't really like the hotel environment. I had also looked into Xiaoshu's neighborhood before and thought it was quiet and suitable for living. I don't have many friends in Hangzhou, so I thought that I could become Xiaoshu's neighbor and go out for walks together from time to time."
Seeing that Nan Shu didn't seem to have reacted yet, Wei Jingxing directly revealed his hand.
Nan Shu suddenly realized, looked at Wei Jingxing and then at the villa next door, "So, Brother Jingxing, you rented the villa next door?"
Kui Jingxing smiled and corrected, "It's not a rent, it's a purchase." (End of Chapter)
