Xu Taiping's hands were trembling as he held the letter.
He had never thought that he was from the Zhao Family, and he was from the same generation as Old Z. And the old shoemaker that he knew in the capital was actually his wife's grandfather.
It's like a story, it's amazing.
"There are words on the back of this letter." Song Jia said.
Xu Taiping paused for a second, then quickly changed the envelope.
There really was a line of words behind the letter.
"If you're free, put on those old shoes and a set of clothes in the box. Go to the Zhao Family to pay respects to your wife's grandma, Madame Cao."
Wife Grandma Cao?
If this was the case, then this Madam Cao should be the wife of his wife's grandfather, Zhao Chengpang.
Xu Taiping picked up his family's fortune and looked around, only to find that there was no one with the surname Cao in the entire family.
"I didn't get lucky at all!" Xu Taiping looked at the photo in surprise.
"Matters in big families are very complicated!" Song Jia said.
"En!" Xu Taiping nodded. He had a certain understanding of aristocratic families. Not every woman in the world could become a wife, and some were nameless as well. It was obvious that his wife's grandma didn't have any status at all.
Xu Taiping held the photo in his hand, unable to calm down for a long time.
A few minutes ago, he didn't know anything about his past, but now, everything became extremely clear. He was a descendant of the Zhao Family, and the old shoemaker in the capital was his wife's grandfather, Zhao Gang.
If Xu Taiping's calculations were not wrong, Zhao Taizhong, Zhao Taiheng, and Taiheng were his half-brother. As for Zhao Yongliang, he would have to call him uncle if he saw him.
Xu Taiping sat in silence for a long time, slowly digesting the sudden revelation of his life.
"Then are you going back to the Zhao Family, or?" Song Jia asked softly.
"I'm not going back." Xu Taiping shook his head and said, "These thirty years of life have nothing to do with the Zhao Family. They have their own lives, and I have mine. There's no need to forcefully get involved."
"Therefore, you should still call him Xu Taiping, not Zhao Taiping, right?" Song Jia asked.
"Of course." Xu Taiping smiled, placed the letter and the photo inside the box, and said, "I'll be Xu Taiping for the rest of my life."
"I've heard about the Zhao Family. It's a big family. I thought that with your character, you would definitely run back to marry them. I didn't expect you to resist the temptation of the Zhao Family. Good!" Song Jia giggled.
"What do you mean by 'with my personality'? What sort of character do I have? Haven't I always been indifferent to fame and fortune? " Xu Taiping asked.
"Alright then. You're indifferent to fame and fortune. I'm pure and sweet. Come, let's drink." Song Jia said to Xu Taiping while holding the wine bottle.
Xu Taiping touched the bottle with Song Jia and took a big gulp of the wine.
"That's not right!" Xu Taiping suddenly put down the bottle.
"What's wrong?" Song Jia asked.
"I'm fine." Xu Taiping shook his head and walked out of Song Jia's room.
Song Jia looked at Xu Taiping in surprise, but did not follow him.
Xu Taiping walked out of the room, picked up his cell phone and called Old Z.
The phone rang for a moment before it was picked up.
"It seems like you know something." Before Xu Taiping could say anything, the old man spoke first.
"You know who I am?" Xu Taiping asked.
"Got it." Old Z said.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Xu Taiping asked.
"Why should I tell you?" "Your dad doesn't want you to become a flower on a warm bed, so I'll take you to walk the path of an assassin. Look at you now, don't you live a better life than anyone else? You live a better life than anyone else?" Old Z asked.
"That is to say, everything you did all those years ago was planned?" Including your encounter with me? " Xu Taiping asked.
"Yes." Old Z replied.
"What the hell." Xu Taiping could not help but curse.
"Let's not dwell on the past anymore." Old Z laughed and said, "As a descendant of our Zhao Family, first, you don't embarrass our Zhao Family. Secondly, you are doing well, and that's enough. If your father knows, he can rest in peace."
"Then if I die in the previous training, will my family be cut off?" Xu Taiping gritted his teeth and asked.
"How could my Zhao Family's son die that easily? Moreover, you grew up in the Dragon plate area. Your body is already different from ordinary people, so you won't die that easily. Not to mention, you drank someone's medicine, right?" Old Z asked.
"You even know this?!" Xu Taiping asked in shock. Only a few people knew about him and that biologist, and only he and that biologist knew that he drank the biologist's medicine. Now, even he knew about it.
Xu Taiping's back was covered in cold sweat. This old man was much more complicated than he thought.
"I'm in charge of intelligence, what can be hidden from me?" On the other end of the line, Old Z seemed to be smiling proudly, then he said, "However, peace, trouble will soon appear."
"What trouble?" Xu Taiping asked.
"Do you still remember what happened in the First Hospital? The doctor's death? " Old Z asked.
"I remember!" Xu Taiping nodded.
The doctor's mentor is a scientist at a secret research institute in Jiangyuan city, who specializes in biological science. They are researching drugs that can greatly enhance the quality of the human body, and for that, the Central Military Commission even formed a special dragon hunting unit to look for materials for the research institute. That day, that doctor found an unknown element in your blood and reported it to his instructor, who entrusted the dragon hunting team to take your blood away, but then found out that the doctor was already dead. Old Z asked.
"Dragon Hunting … Are you from the Dragon Hunters? Then why are you still a member of the Hall of Blood and Death? " Xu Taiping asked.
"I don't only have one identity. I come and go without a trace. If I don't enter the dragon hunt, how am I supposed to figure out what the country is doing?" Old Z asked.
"Awesome." Xu Taiping could not help but exclaim in admiration. This Zhao Taixu on the surface was really famous, but he actually had so many identities in the dark, and many of them were opposing each other. This was just too terrifying.
"Right now, I'm investigating the origins of those people. If they find you, they must help me keep one alive!" Old Z said.
"Are there any benefits?" Xu Taiping asked.
"Benefits?" Yes, I can answer one of your questions. Of course, that is only if I know about it. " Old Z said.
"Three questions." Xu Taiping said.
"Too many!" Old Z said.
"Then I won't keep him alive." Xu Taiping said.
"It's not good for you to do this. How about this, two questions!" Old Z said.
"Three." Xu Taiping said firmly.
"Three is fine, but with your personality that doesn't want to lose out, you're just like your dad!" Old Z laughed.
"Are you familiar with my dad?" Xu Taiping asked in a low voice.
"Is that one of the three questions?" Old Z asked.
"Whatever you say, I just want to get a better understanding of him." Xu Taiping said.
But according to seniority calculations, I have to call him uncle, so we have to treat him as our older brother. Your dad's thoughts and thoughts are very different from ours, and in the family, your dad is considered an anomaly, but our Zhao family is much stronger than other families, so no one will ask for your thoughts to be the same as ours. You have to be the same as our family, but later on, your dad left the Zhao family, because of the differences in views, we were sad for a long time because we had grown up together and played together. Old Z said.
"Then is my dad really dead?" Xu Taiping asked.
"Dead." Old Z said.
"Well, then." Xu Taiping sighed, hung up the phone, and then stood on the balcony, looking at the moon in the sky.
Although Xu Taiping's memory was very good, after so many years, he truly felt that he had forgotten a little about what his father looked like. If he had not seen the photo at night and used his only memory to recall it, he might not have been able to.
Xu Taiping lit a cigarette for himself. Knowing that the excitement of his past life was soon over, in the blink of an eye, there was only a hint of loneliness left.
Xu Taiping didn't know why he was so lonely. Logically speaking, he knew who he was and how many relatives he had in this world. However, he just felt lonely.
Perhaps this had something to do with the experiences he had over the past few decades. He had always been an orphan, and was already used to being an orphan.
Song Jia walked to Xu Taiping's side, took the cigarette from his mouth, and put it into his own mouth. Then, she handed a bottle of wine to Xu Taiping.
"You are truly different from others. Others know how happy they are about their own lives, but I can't find any happiness in you." Song Jia said.
"If I'm the same as everyone else, would you still like me?" Xu Taiping asked, his arm around Song Jia's shoulders.
"Tonight is not a good time." Song Jia said as she leaned her body against Xu Taiping.
"I'm not thinking about sleeping with you. Don't think too much about it." Xu Taiping laughed.
Song Jia reached out her hand to pinch Xu Taiping's waist before saying, "I'm going to sleep. You go accompany Jinxuan."
"Have a good dream." Xu Taiping patted Song Jia's head and said.
"En!" Song Jia nodded, turned around and walked back into the room with Xu Taiping's cigarette in her mouth.
Xu Taiping stood on the balcony and looked at the moon in the sky for a long time.
The moon is full. Mobile users please browse and read, better reading experience.
