"I’m interested in your makeup skills, as for the rest, I’m really not impressed," Xiaofeng said bluntly.
"What about my companions? Where are they now?"
"I don’t know about that; I don’t handle those matters. I’m only interested in you, so I want to take you with . Think it over carefully, I’ll give you ten minutes to think. If you decide to co with , I’ll take you right now," Xiaofeng declared.
Lianzi bit her lip, noticeably moved by Xiaofeng’s proposal: "Do you really have no other motive?"
"Of course, there’s a motive, which is your makeup skills," Xiaofeng said, looking straight at her.
Lianzi nodded: "I’m just an ant; life is the sa wherever I live. If you want to work for you, it’s not impossible."
People live everywhere just for a al to eat.
"Then let’s go."
Xiaofeng didn’t take Lianzi directly back to the Gu Family but found her a place to stay for the ti being.
The small courtyard wasn’t large but was a quiet dwelling nonetheless.
"You stay here for now, and when I need you, I’ll naturally co for you."
Lianzi nodded.
...
"Acheng, how many of the victims’ children have you found so far?" Xiaofeng, while brushing her hair in front of the makeup mirror, asked Acheng.
"We’ve found six. You were right, most of these people have unique skills but aren’t doing well. Like this Lianzi, her makeup skills are great, but she hasn’t used them rightfully; instead, she’s used them to deceive others."
There’s another who’s skilled in Ventriloquism.
In short, they each have their strengths.
"This is troubleso; it ans the mastermind behind this is a formidable person," Xiaofeng concluded. "Everyone has a unique skill, which ans these people must have been trained specially."
"I’ve always found one person strange," Gu Yecheng, thinking of soone familiar to Xiaofeng: "You know this person; you’ve got a good relationship with her."
"Lan Shuixian, right?"
"Yes, her."
"What have you found?"
"She seems to have a dual personality," Gu Yecheng concluded, "one very quiet and another filled with great ambition."
Xiaofeng thought to say, her situation isn’t just a dual personality, it’s like she’s two different people.
Oh well, what’s the use of telling Acheng about it.
"She’s not simple; you better keep your distance from her in the future. She gives off a sinister vibe," Gu Yecheng advised.
"I can actually tell you sothing, the real owner behind the Lange Yuntian Club is Lan Shuixian." The Lange Yuntian Club, frequented by people of status, with the right effort, any information can be collected.
Gu Yecheng’s eyebrows indeed furrowed upon hearing the news.
"It’s her."
Xiaofeng nodded.
Gu Yecheng, however, smiled, "Wife, if Case 319 is solved, you definitely deserve so credit."
Lan Shuixian is the boss of Lange Yuntian; many things can be initiated from Lange Yuntian, providing a new direction where certain people and matters will certainly surface.
...
"Alright, don’t bother seeing us off, I’ll co over again when I have ti. You guys should also visit us soti," He Xii and Guaizi were heading back, and Yan Juni and Chu Qing naturally wanted to see them off.
"Have a safe trip," Chu Qing, holding He Xii’s hand: "We wanted you to stay a few more days, but you wouldn’t agree."
"We’ve already caused you enough trouble this ti. In the future, when Guaizi and I are not here, Xiaofeng and the boy and girl twins will be your responsibility. She’s a lucky girl; following her, her dad and I also enjoyed great blessings."
"Mother-in-law, look at what you’re saying. It’s all about fate among you. You raised her, and it’s only right for her to care for you in return."
The Guaizi couple, finding airplane transfers inconvenient, directly purchased train tickets which could take them straight to their ho, though it ant a longer journey.
As they were about to enter the station, Xiaofeng felt a pain in her chest and subconsciously called out, "Dad."
Guaizi turned back, looking at her reluctance to leave, his eyes also slightly moist.
Xiaofeng had been with him since she was a child; she was his own daughter, but now that she was married, she couldn’t see him whenever she wanted.
Xiaofeng ran over and threw herself into Guaizi’s arms, her voice sowhat hoarse, "Dad, take good care of yourself at ho."
"It’s all good, what’s this about? It will make people laugh," Guaizi was sowhat unaccustod to his daughter’s sudden affection.
Xiaofeng didn’t know what ca over her, it was like a bodily instinct, or perhaps the residual emotions of her original self, or maybe it was the thought of leaving at any ti that made her want to hug this honest man who didn’t talk much.
"Let them laugh." Xiaofeng did not continue to lean on Guaizi’s body, but her eyes were a bit red.
"It’s not like we can never see each other again. If you miss ho, co back. I can co over anyti. You’ve grown up but seem to have beco childish," Guaizi patted Xiaofeng’s shoulder, "You are married now, just live your life well. A family must be harmonious and happy."
"Mm."
As the train departed, Guaizi sighed, "My daughter has grown up, understanding my challenges only when she’s soone else’s wife."
He Xii glanced at him, "What’s wrong, reluctant to marry off your daughter so far away?"
"As a parent, of course, you wish she could marry soone closer, which is more convenient for visiting. Of course, with Xiaofeng being like this, she’s the kind that many can’t marry off, as long as she can lead a good life, it’s fine if it’s a bit far," Guaizi responded.
"Rare for you to show your feelings," He Xii, who actually understood him best, said as he kept his troubles to himself, "Don’t worry, she is your own daughter, no matter where she marries, she has you in her heart. This daughter, you haven’t raised in vain."
Guaizi, hearing this, laughed, "Exactly, it’s worth it. It’s not about having many children but about having ability and filial piety."
...
Xiaofeng felt sowhat distressed as they entered the train station.
She suddenly understood why the original owner wanted to co back, probably to see her own relatives and children that should belong to her.
Yes, if it were her, she would miss them too.
In this world, there are blood relatives of the original owner, and her family.
So, original owner, if you want to co back, then co back, everything here should belong to you, and I am just a passerby in their lives.
Although a passerby, having these beautiful mories is also worth it.
On the way back, Xiaofeng sat in the car, wanting to go in and chat with Xiaoqi.
Xiaoqi was still sleeping at this ti, unaware of Xiaofeng coming in.
As soon as she entered, she felt the Spiritual Energy in the space was thin, as if she couldn’t breathe.
She hurriedly left again.
Xiaoqi had ntioned before that when the air is thin, the original owner might co back at any ti, and she would leave.
So, is the original owner coming back?
Fortunately, Xiaonian did not notice her odd behavior, simply thinking she was sad, so she remained quiet.
"Sis, we’re ho," Xiaonian looked at her sister who was still closing her eyes, thinking she was asleep, and gently called out a few tis.
Xiaofeng did not respond.
Xiaonian felt sothing was wrong and said to Chu Qing, "Mom, sis might have fainted again, I called her several tis, and she didn’t hear."
Chu Qing quickly joined in calling, "Xiaofeng, Feng, wake up, wake up."
Xiaofeng still did not respond.
Chu Qing, realizing sothing was wrong, told the driver, "Turn around, go to the Gu Family, fast."
This girl, fine one mont and then this, don’t scare .
"Sis, sis," Xiaonian’s voice grew louder, shaking Xiaofeng’s body.
Xiaofeng still did not react.
"Girl, girl," Chu Qing’s tears had already fallen, "Don’t scare mom, girl, what’s wrong with you."
