Lu He asked, “Who dares to make you do miscellaneous tasks??”

Has everyone gone crazy?

Ning Sheng didn’t say anything and fell into a deep sleep.

She only woke up when they arrived at Xin Jing Villa.

She stumbled out of the car and walked inside without noticing Lu Chu Yao.

She planned to go upstairs and continue sleeping. After all, she was exhausted, and she had been a little spoiled by Lu Chu Yao before. Today at the research institute, she had spent the whole day doing menial tasks.

Lu Chu Yao came back and didn’t see Ning Sheng.

He asked, “Where’s Ning Sheng?”

The butler replied, “Miss Ning Sheng went straight upstairs. She looks exhausted.”

Lu Chu Yao leisurely went upstairs.

He didn’t go overboard last night, did he? Is she that tired?

Upstairs, Ning Sheng was still sleeping.

He walked over, and this little girl can still sleep–

Just as he sat down, he received a message from Lu Qi. He had planned to take Ning Sheng out for dinner, but in the end, he gave up and just kissed her before leaving.

“What’s up?” he asked.

Lu Qi sounded anxious on the other end, “Someone from the Gu family is investigating the Ning family. Ning Yao Wu and Wang Gui Lan have gone missing, and now the investigation has reached their cousin’s home. Should we intervene?”

Lu Chu Yao contemplated for a moment and then said, “No need.”

“If they find out about Miss Ning Sheng…” Lu Qi began.

The situation with the Gu family was very unclear.

“Let them play on their own,” Lu Chu Yao interrupted.

Meanwhile…

At the Gu family’s old residence, after several days of investigation, Gu Zuo Qing finally found the person he was looking for. He looked at the girl in front of him, furrowing his brows slightly, but it didn’t matter. He then said to the butler beside him,”Tell my third brother to come back. Big brother’s daughter has been found.”

The Gu family butler was stunned upon hearing this.

“You mean, this is the eldest master’s daughter?” The butler couldn’t believe it.

Gu Zuo Qing smiled and said, “Yes, after the explosion that happened in the neighboring city which involved big brother and sister-in-law, I investigated for a long time and finally discovered some clues. This girl perfectly matches all the factors, and look at her eyes, they look so much like sister-in-law’s, don’t they?”

The Gu family butler looked at the girl’s doe-like eyes and had to admit they did resemble her.

“But, based on just this, to say that she’s the eldest master’s child, don’t you think you’re being a bit hasty, Second Master?” the Gu family butler said. He was unwilling to believe this girl.

After all, the Third Master’s investigation had not concluded yet.

Upon hearing this, Gu Zuo Qing sighed, “I know you don’t want to believe it, but this child was indeed adopted, and when she was abandoned at the Ning family all those years ago, she had that ring with her, the one that Sister-in-law always wore.”

As he finished speaking, the girl handed the ring to the butler.

The Gu family butler was flustered. It was the ring Miss Meng loved the most.

“How may 1 address you, Miss?” he asked.

“I’m called Ning Xia Xia.”

Ning Xia Xia.

Gu Zuo Qing smiled and said, “Xia Xia, this will be your home from now on. If you need anything, just let me know. I’m your Second Uncle, and your Third Uncle will be back soon.”

He put on a very amiable and caring appearance, just like a doting elder.

Ning Xia Xia smiled and said, “Thank you, but my foster parents are still in the neighboring city. I haven’t been separated from them for so many years…”

“Don’t worry, I’ll make arrangements for you,” Gu Zuo Qing assured her.

Ning Xia Xia clenched her fist and nodded.

“You’re the eldest daughter of the Gu family. Everything should be the best for you,” Gu Zuo Qing touched her head. “You can do whatever you want in the future. Don’t be afraid, the Gu family is behind you.”

Ning Xia Xia sweetly said, “Thank you..”
