Ning Zhiyuan nodded lightly, and admitted honestly: "Your father and I are indeed deadly enemies. To tell you the truth, I wish he could die! But you can't let him die easily, you have to play him to death slowly, just like teasing him. Like a cat, it made him angry, and then gave him another slap in the face, beating him half to death, and let him watch how his Haotian Group collapsed."

Saying such things in front of someone else's daughter is Ning Zhiyuan.

Zhang Xiao smiled wryly: "You don't have to tell me how much you hate him, even though he is my own father, I also...resent him." At the end, she said: "Mr. Ning, let's get back to the topic Come on, can Mr. Ning help me with this? I know that the price of your Flame Gate is very high, please ask Mr. Ning to make a price, no matter how high the price is, I can afford it."

Ning Zhiyuan looked at her steadfastly.

A few minutes later, he reminded Zhang Xiao: "I can help you with this favor without charging you a penny, but you have to be mentally prepared, if it really has something to do with your father, it will be your father anyway." , Exposing the truth is very cruel, and it is also a kind of harm to you."

The pain of being hurt by a loved one is not something ordinary people can afford.

Zhang Xiao smiled, the smile was still astringent, "I have been hurt enough by him."

She didn't go any further, but it was enough to make Ning Zhiyuan's heart ache.

Dad, this word is tall. In the heart of the child, the father is a towering tree, and the children grow up under the shade of the father. No matter it is windy or rainy, there is a big tree to block it. But to Zhang Xiao, her father was the one who hurt her, and was synonymous with pain and resentment.

"No matter how cruel the truth is, I can accept it. Even if the sky falls, I can hold on. Mr. Ning, please help me investigate." She took out a wad of money from herself, probably Four or five thousand yuan. She stood up and gently placed the wad of money in front of Ning Zhiyuan, and said, "For businessmen, business that loses money cannot be done. Mr. Ning, this is a deposit. After the investigation results come out, I will pay another one." Giving the sum of money to Mr. Ning will definitely not make Mr. Ning suffer."

Ning Zhiyuan glanced at the money, his face darkened, and his phoenix eyes were coldly looking at her.

Zhang Xiao wasn't afraid either, and frankly stared at his sharp eyes.

"Put the money away!" Ning Zhiyuan ordered.

Zhang Xiao didn't move.

Ning Zhiyuan quickly picked up the stack of money and threw it at Zhang Xiao, saying in a cold voice: "I don't want your money, if you ask me about the money again, I won't help you investigate, and I will tell all the detective agencies , if anyone dares to help you investigate this matter, I will block their detective agency, believe me, I have that ability!"

The money was scattered on the coffee table in front of Zhang Xiao.

She looked at Ning Zhiyuan in a daze.

She felt his kindness to her, even if it was always hidden under rough actions.

"President Ning, what is our relationship?"

Zhang Xiao suddenly asked softly.

Ning Zhiyuan was slightly taken aback.

Zhang Xiao continued to ask: "Mr. Mu once started talking, but Mr. Mu didn't say it in the end, he said to keep it until you tell me. I thought, we won't be brother and sister, my mother gave birth to me. If we They are brothers and sisters, and my father would not raise me. He doesn't like my mother so much, how could he raise a daughter who is not of his blood. But we must be related, otherwise you wouldn't care about me so much. "

Zhang Xiao especially emphasized the word caring.

Ning Zhiyuan pursed his lips, and stared deeply at Zhang Xiao with his phoenix eyes.

"President Ning, can you tell me? I don't like guessing, I don't like being hung up, this kind of feeling is uncomfortable." Zhang Xiao begged Ning Zhiyuan to tell the secret hidden in his heart.

Ning Zhiyuan's pursed lips parted slightly, and asked softly: "Do you really want to know?"

Zhang Xiao nodded.

"Do you still remember that there is a framed photo in front of my parents' photos?"

Zhang Xiao nodded again. She remembered that there was a photo from decades ago in that photo frame. The camera technology back then was not as good as it is now, and it was easy to tell that it was an old photo. However, Ning Zhiyuan protected that photo. well done.

He had told her that it was a picture of his mother when she was a child.

"That's a photo of my mother and my aunt. Both of my mother's parents died, and no relatives were willing to adopt them. She and my aunt were sent to an orphanage. My aunt was photographed by a rich family when she was three years old. Adopted her, the sisters took that picture when they separated, one for each, it was originally used as evidence of their recognition in the future."

"My mother is your aunt?" The smart Zhang Xiao immediately thought of his mother as the adopted daughter of the Wen family, and asked Ning Zhiyuan tentatively.

Ning Zhiyuan nodded, "Yes, when I went to Canada, I went to Wen's family to verify. Your uncles all admitted that your mother Wen Li is my aunt Chen Yali. You and I are real cousins!"

Zhang Xiao sat down in astonishment, he didn't expect that he and Ning Zhiyuan were cousins, no wonder Ning Zhiyuan started to care about her, it turned out that he knew that she was his cousin.

Ning Zhiyuan looked at her quietly, she was just astonished, but had no doubts, probably the Wen family would also call her. He didn't deliberately hide the Wen family's photos to prevent Wen Li from remembering the promise with his sister, because Zhang Xiao took the Wen family very seriously, and still regarded the Wen family as her uncle's family in her heart.

"No wonder my uncles always mentioned you when they called me, so that's why." Zhang Xiao suddenly realized, and the attitude of the uncles also told her that some details made the Wen family feel sorry for her mother and daughter. of.

But Zhang Xiao didn't delve into it. No matter what the Wen family did, at least they raised her mother, and they were kind to her mother.

Slowly, Zhang Xiao tidied up the money scattered on the tea table.

"Mr. Mu already knew?"

Ning Zhiyuan hummed.

"Wing Chun also knows?"

"Um."

"Why did you let me know last?" Zhang Xiao asked softly, without looking at Ning Zhiyuan.

Ning Zhiyuan was silent.

Zhang Xiao looked up at him after putting away the money, and he said in a low voice, "Your stepmother is a duplicity."

"I know that." Zhang Xiao said, "But my dad loves her very much and trusts her very much. In my dad's heart, she is the best stepmother in the world, but I, as a stepdaughter, don't know good from bad, and are ruthless. .”

Ning Zhiyuan said with a cold face: "I don't want to announce the relationship between the two of us as cousins, because I'm afraid that your stepmother will have scruples. To deal with her, you must catch her, otherwise your father will never believe you. I will replace your mother The two girls will seek justice!"

This time it was Zhang Xiao's turn to be silent.

She was also watching with cold eyes, braking with silence, waiting to catch Ling Hongyu and show up, making her father even want to protect Ling Hongyu.

Unexpectedly, Ning Zhiyuan thought the same way.

As expected of cousins, they have the same mind.
