Zhang Changzheng could not tell anyone about this matter, not even his wife. Only he knew.
In fact, he even doubted whether Xu Jinning knew that he could hear her inner thoughts.
He felt that Xu Jinning might not know either.
But, it doesn’t matter whether Xu Jinning knows it or not.
As long as he knows, it’s okay. He knows that it’s Xu Jinning’s inner words that saved him.
So, this kind of gratitude is a must.
When I brought this thing today, Zhang Changzheng even felt that these things were too light.
These things were not only bought by him, but also by his wife.
Although he couldn't tell his wife that he could hear Xu Jinning's inner thoughts, he told his wife about Xu Jinning's dream that reminded him to carry a gun, and about the encounter with Xu Jinning on the day he found out that his wife was pregnant, which made his wife believe that Xu Jinning was a lucky star. .
Of course, he and his wife are grateful not only for these decisions, but also for others.
"Brother Xu, sister-in-law, I came here today because there is another thing. Xuemei and I both like Ning Ning very much. We hope to accept Ning Ning as our goddaughter. I wonder if you still have Ning Ning or not?" Zhang Changzheng hesitated.
Zhang Changzheng felt that his decision was a bit shameless. If Ning Ning was really a lucky star, then in the eyes of others, he would have been blessed by Ning Ning in disguise.
However, he did not have this idea.
He was just thinking about the path he would take in the future. He hoped that his future identity would bring some help and honor to Ning Ning.
"By the way, Brother Xu, sister-in-law, didn't this newspaper say that I will be rewarded? In fact, the reward has already been received. The leader of our bureau was transferred because of this matter. He was promoted. Before he left, he told me that in the future, I took his place."
“Really? Congratulations then.”
Hearing that Zhang Changzheng was promoted, Xu Aiguo and others were very happy for him.
“So, brother Xu, sister-in-law, can Xuemei and I recognize Ning Ning as our goddaughter?” Zhang Changzheng asked again.
"What nonsense are you talking about? What is allowed? Of course we are willing. And even if I am not my goddaughter, I treat you as a younger brother. Ning Ning is also your and Xuemei's niece, but I still have to ask about this matter. Ask Ning Ning for her opinion."
“Ning Ning, your Uncle Changzheng and Aunt Xuemei want to recognize you as their goddaughter, are you willing?” Zhang Ailian turned to ask Xu Jinning.
Zhang Changzheng also looked at Xu Jinning, with expectant eyes, and said: "Ning Ning, uncle likes you very much. Although your Aunt Xuemei was in a hurry because of her pregnancy and did not come this time, your Aunt Xuemei will definitely do the same." I have asked her about this if she likes you. She and I have the same expectations. So, Ningning, are you willing to be the goddaughter of your Uncle Changzheng and Aunt Xuemei? We can’t guarantee that we will treat you as their goddaughter. I treat her like my own daughter, but I will definitely help you and protect you when you need it. Xuemei and I, like your Xu family, are the most protective of you."
“So, are you willing?”
Xu Jinning was stunned for a moment, and after coming to his senses, he nodded, "I am willing."
Just kidding, I don’t want to think about Zhang Changzheng’s current and future positions. How could she be unwilling for such a powerful person to take the initiative to accept her as his daughter?
This will only bring benefits and no harm to her now and in the future. She is stupid to be unwilling.
“You agreed, that’s really great.”
Not only Zhang Changzheng is happy, the Xu family is also very happy for Xu Jinning.
Since Xu Aiguo had to rush to work and everyone else had to go about their own business, Zhang Changzheng did not delay much.
But the way Xu Aiguo goes to work is the same as the way Zhang Changzheng takes back to the county town.
They went to the county town together, but they were not the only ones. There was also Xu Jinning sitting in the back seat of Xu Aiguo's car. After Xu Aiguo arrived at the textile factory, Xu Jinning got into the back seat of Zhang Changzheng's car and headed to Zhang Changzheng's home.
Because of the human trafficker incident and the promotion, Zhang Changzheng was able to take a vacation these days.
And my wife happened to be resting at home today, and Ning Ning was fine at home alone, so I planned to take Ning Ning to his house and meet her future godmother.
Xu Jinning couldn't resist the hospitality, so he came along.
Soon, when they arrived at Zhang Changzheng’s home, Xu Jinning also met her future godmother, Chen Xuemei.
Chen Xuemei has a good personality and is gentle and kind. She is a very simple and kind person.
Xu Jinning sensed her kindness and fell in love with this godmother.
Xu Jinning stayed here for a whole day. Chen Xuemei took her around the county. At noon, Zhang Changzheng even cooked himself and cooked a table of delicious dishes for Xu Jinning.
Xu Jinning had a very happy time at their house. In the evening, when Xu Aiguo came to pick her up, she was a little reluctant to leave. This time she was no longer reserved and took Chen Xuemei's arm affectionately. Although they had not officially recognized their relationship, she She has already directly called Chen Xuemei her godmother and Zhang Changzheng her godfather.
Xu Aiguo knew at a glance that his little girl was doing well at Zhang Changzheng's house today, and he was also happy.
From now on, there will be one more person to protect his family Ning Ning.
Before leaving, Zhang Changzheng also pulled Xu Aiguo aside and talked about investigating the birth of Zhang Ailian and Mrs. Lin in the hospital fifteen years ago.
"...This matter was delayed a while ago due to the human trafficker incident, but I will continue to investigate and will definitely uncover the truth."
Previously, Zhang Changzheng investigated this matter, including how Xu Jinning lived in those fifteen years, only because of Xu Aiguo's request.
But now, it’s different. Xu Jinning is his and his wife’s goddaughter.
He must investigate the truth of that year. If the mistake was really a conspiracy of the Lin family and his wife, then he must expose it. The hardships Ning Ning endured must not be in vain.
He felt heartbroken when he thought about Ning Ning's life in the previous 15 years that he had investigated before.
The little girl really suffered too much before.
But if Ning Ning could have enjoyed happiness and grown up with her family, but was deliberately exchanged to endure these hardships, that would be unforgivable.
Xu Aiguo patted Zhang Changzheng's shoulder, then looked at Xu Jinning who was saying goodbye to Chen Xuemei on the other side, and said, "Well, I'll leave this matter to you. You are Ningning's godfather. I'll leave it to you." It’s reassuring.”

“Abei, Abei…”
On this day, Xu Xiangbei was recording work points in the field when he suddenly heard a slightly familiar voice calling him.
He turned around and saw a person waving to him from a distance.
He took a closer look and narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw Cui Zhiqiang.
This guy actually dared to come to him.
Over there, Cui Zhiqiang saw Xu Xiangbei turning back and waved more actively, hoping that Xu Xiangbei could pass.
Xu Xiangbei had just finished memorizing it, so he walked over with his notebook and pen.
As he got closer, he was startled when he saw Cui Zhiqiang's appearance in front of him.
