For the next few days, Gu Caifeng prepared for the upcoming trip. At one moment, she felt that she didn't bring enough clothes, and at the other, she felt that she didn't have enough sunscreen.
Ning Xiaoxiao was happy to watch. Gu Caile was busy at home, and the more busy she was, the more she would cry when she returned.
However, not attending the celebration was not the most worth crying for. It was because of all the preparations Gu Caier had made, that she realized Ning Weishan would never have a son.
It was probably at that time that she really wanted to cry. Seeing that Ning Weishan and Gu Caier were both so pleased with themselves, it seemed like it was time for her to add fuel to the fire.
Last time he brought the checklist from the hospital, he didn't have the chance to let Gu Caifeng see it, but now it was time.
"Old Zhao, go upstairs and get my clothes. Why is it so cold outside?"
When she thought of going to Hawaii, Gu Caifeng was dressed coolly. She didn't even think about the weather in An Hai right now.
The driver who came to pick Gu Caile up hadn't arrived yet, so after standing outside for a while, she couldn't take it anymore. She quickly ordered Zhao to get some clothes for herself.
"The door upstairs is locked!"
Seeing that Old Zhao was about to head upstairs, Ning Xiaoxiao, who was sitting on the sofa, took a sip of her tea and spoke to him in a leisurely manner.
The key to the master bedroom upstairs was only available to Gu Caifeng and Ning Weishan. He went downstairs now, asked Gu Caifeng for the key, and then went upstairs to get some clothes. When he came back, he was afraid Gu Caifeng was already frozen.
Old Zhao glanced at Ning Xiaoxiao and gritted his teeth. He picked up a coat from the living room and went out. Through the transparent window, he saw Old Zhao draped the coat over Gu CaiEr's shoulders. A smile appeared on Ning Xiaoxiao's face.
How could the key to the master bedroom upstairs only be found in Ning Weishan and Gu Caier? Furthermore, the coat that she had worn on Gu Caile just now was a gift from her to Ning Weishan and Gu Caile. She only needed to wait and watch the show.
"Grandpa Xu, you're here!"
Ning Xiaoxiao, wearing the formal attire she had prepared earlier, stood obediently by Ning Weishan's side as she welcomed everyone at the entrance of the Ning family residence one by one.
Old Master Xu had come with Xu Mo's father, but Xu Mo was not by his side. It seemed that due to Xin Xin's matter, the relationship between Xu Mo and his family hadn't improved yet.
"Girl Xiao is indeed good-looking. No matter how Grandpa views it, she is still handsome!"
Ning Weishan and Ning Xiaoxiao asked Old Master Xu together, but Old Man Xu only exchanged a few words with Ning Xiaoxiao. He ignored Ning Weishan and left her in an awkward position.
On the other hand, Xu Mo's father felt awkward when Ning Weishan extended his hand. In order to ease the awkward atmosphere, he extended his hand to shake hands with Ning Weishan, giving him some face.
Mr Xu was in An Hai, a heavyweight who could talk with both sides of the government. Thus, everyone's attention had been focused on Mr Xu the moment he appeared. Now, Elder Xu had come up with this move.
Everyone present was clear in their hearts. The reason Ning Weishan invited Elder Xu to the celebration was probably because of Ning Xiaoxiao.
Elder Xu's attitude had also set off alarm bells in many people's hearts. Usually, when there was no Elder Xu, it was fine to curry favor with Ning Wei Shan, but now that the real boss had come out, everyone's target had changed.
Seeing Elder Xu's indifferent attitude towards him, Ning Weishan could only swallow his shattered teeth. In An Hai, there was no one who could touch the Xu family.
Even if the descendants of the Xu Family were incapable of doing anything, as long as Elder Xu was present, the Xu Family would be able to continue to stand unmoving in An Hai.
"Grandfather, I'll take you to sit over there. My mother said that you like Jadeite Spring the most!"
Ning Xiaoxiao stepped forward and took Elder Xu's arm. She sweetly pointed to a small tea table in front of them. Coincidentally, there was a photo of Shao Qiyu on the table.
Elder Xu sat down and picked up Shao Qiyu's photo as tears flowed down his cheeks.
"When Xiao Yu took this photo, she was as big as you are now!
When Ning Xiaoxiao heard Elder Xu's words, her tears had already started rolling down her face. It just so happened that on the background screen, the development of the Ning family was starting to roll around.
The first half of the story was filled with pictures of Shao Qiyu. Elder Xu covered his face as he cried. Ning Xiaoxiao even cried like she was about to cry.
She did not see her mother for the last time. By the time she returned home, her mother had turned into a handful of ashes. She could not even cry if she wanted to.
After that, the life went up and down, oppressing her to the point where she couldn't find a foothold. She also didn't allow herself to cry beside others.
She had wanted to agree with Elder Xu so that Ning Weishan could express her opinion, but somehow, after seeing her mother's photo, her tears could no longer be stopped once the door was opened.
Seeing Ning Xiaoxiao crying and Lu Qing standing at the door, his hands subconsciously clenched into fists, Ning Xiaoxiao had never told him about Shao Qiyu.
He didn't think much of Shao Qiyu like the others, he only considered them as mother and daughter because their relationship was shallow. Now that Ning Xiaoxiao was crying like this, how could that be considered shallow? She was simply hiding her feelings.
Shao Xuan and Bi Yichen, who stood in the shadows, also felt the same pain as Lu Qing. They'd arrived at the Ning Family a long time ago.
Shao Xuan had his own selfish thoughts in his heart. He wanted to see for himself the man that made his little aunt give up the entire family, and even more so, wanted to see with his own eyes the place where his little sister and little aunt once lived.
It was a pity that Ning Weishan did his job well. He had wanted to go up to the second floor openly several times, but he was stopped.
Even his aunt's photo could only be seen on the big screen.
Bi Yichen looked at Ning Xiaoxiao, who was crying not far away. He felt that this girl was even deeper than when he had met her a few years ago.
She had first met him in Italy, in the early hours of the morning, but her slightly sad eyes had been planted in his heart.
However, at that time, she was deeply depressed, and it was only the depression of a child. Now, there was more sadness in her eyes.
She hooked him, step by step, to find out what was in her eyes and what made her look so desperate and radiant.
However, not everyone felt their heart ache when they saw Ning Xiaoxiao's tears. Ning Weishan felt extremely frustrated.
Judging from the situation just now, the matter hadn't begun as smoothly as he had thought. Fortunately, even if he hadn't won over Elder Xu today, the other plan would have been completed.
A light lit up in Ning Weishan's eyes. His trump card had not been released yet. As long as he could get Ning Xiaoxiao out of the Ning family, he would be safe for a while.
Ning Weishan searched around for his trump card, but didn't find anything. He frowned unconsciously.
When he saw the emerald green light from the car not far away, Ning Weishan knew that his chance had come.
