Family?

Now that Mrs. Xia has passed away, do she and they still count as family?

She glanced at Nangong Yaoling, turned around and said, "No need. Since she’s already back, we can gather another day. As for Yun, if you want to stay, stay with the Xia Family."

Yun nodded excitedly: "Thank you, Miss! Thank you!"

Xia Xiaonuan felt a strange feeling brush through her heart.

She always thought that this Yun seemed to prefer Xia Xinmei a bit more.

Even though she’s always by her side, every time Xia Xinmei returns, she appears very excited.

"I want to go upstairs to my mother’s bedroom and take a look."

"Okay, okay, the room hasn’t been touched at all, including her things, they’re all still there," Xia Zhennan quickly said.

Nangong Yaoling held Xiaonuan’s hand: "I’ll go up with you."

In the bedroom.

The bed sheets were neatly folded, and the clothes in the wardrobe were neatly placed on the bed.

Xia Xiaonuan casually looked around, hoping to find some clue about the cause of her mother’s death.

But after looking around, she found nothing.

She sat by the bed, gazing at the photo of Du Fengjun and Xia Zhennan, her eyes slightly reddened.

"Xiaonuan, let’s go back," Nangong Yaoling didn’t want her to stay here too long, fearing she’d become too emotional by reminiscing.

Xia Xiaonuan nodded.

As she got up, suddenly her gaze fell on a long black hair by the pillow.

She curiously picked up the long black hair.

Mrs. Xia’s hair was brown and styled in wavy curls.

It’s very rare for such black hair, and it’s straight...

Something suddenly clicked in Xia Xiaonuan’s mind.

Could it be, before Mrs. Xia left, she saw something that upset her, leading to the car accident?

"Xiaonuan, what’s wrong?" Nangong Yaoling, having reached the door, turned back curiously, seeing Xia Xiaonuan standing there dazed.

Xia Xiaonuan shook her head, quickly clutching the long hair in her palm, wrapping it in a tissue.

"Nothing." She smiled: "Let’s go."

Nangong Yaoling glanced at the tissue in her hand, thinking she was too sad, he didn’t pay much attention.

******

In the car, Xia Xiaonuan gazed out the window, her pupils flashing with confusion.

What exactly is going on?

Nangong Yaoling looked at her: "What’s wrong? What are you thinking about?"

"I want to go to the cemetery." Xia Xiaonuan looked at Nangong Yaoling and said.

Nangong Yaoling nodded.

"Old Zhang, to the cemetery."

"Yes, Crown Prince!" the driver said respectfully.

In the cemetery.

Xia Xiaonuan looked at the photo on the tombstone, Mrs. Xia happily smiling, her face full of joy.

This is an old photo. At that time, she never dreamed she would meet such an end, right?

Thinking of that hair, Xia Xiaonuan’s heart was filled with a bad premonition.

Mrs. Xia’s death, Qi Yue’s disappearance, everything probably isn’t that simple!

Just then, Nangong Yaoling’s phone rang.

It was Qin Yi.

"Is there any clue?" Nangong Yaoling asked.

Qin Yi said, "Young Master, we’re investigating Qi Yue’s matter at a hospital. Someone kidnapped Miss Qi Yue, asking her to hand over a contract. Now, those people have been subdued by us."

Nangong Yaoling nodded: "I understand, I’ll head over later."

"Yes, Young Master."

Hearing this, Xia Xiaonuan hurriedly stepped forward nervously: "Is there news of Qi Yue?"
