Now it seems that he clearly knew it a long time ago.

Ning Yan looked at the angry little girl, chuckled and blinked, "It was just a guess before, the real confirmation was three days ago."

In the capital, there are only a few people whose identities are so mysterious that even the Ning family cannot find them.

Coupled with Lu Qingtang's personality and skills, the scope of the investigation became even narrower.

"Three days ago, I discovered that twenty-three years ago, the Chi family's commander-in-chief had secretly disappeared for a month... and that period of time coincided with your birth."

Everything that happened next became a natural progression.

He only needs to secretly investigate whether the Chi family has made any efforts to look for the child in the past twenty years.

After hearing what Ning Yan said, Lu Qingtang was furious at the thought that this guy clearly knew everything but still hid it from her, causing her to cause this trouble with the research institute.

Ning Yan smiled and dodged her rebellious hand, "Don't you think... running away together is a very romantic thing?"

"And..." Ning Yan grabbed Lu Qingtang's hand, placed it on her chest, and said with a chuckle, "I hope that my sister can have absolute control over her own life."

Whether it is freedom or dreams.

Only what Lu Qingtang really wants to do is her life.

He would not allow any sense of coercion to appear in her life.

Lu Qingtang had had enough of the fuss. He leaned against Ning Yan's chest and looked in the direction Chi Mi had left. After a while, he suddenly asked, "Do you think... can she get him back?"

Ning Yan was silent for a moment, then said softly, "Maybe."

In the 919 tragedy, although Lu Xing was not the murderer, those who died were really dead.

Such a grave sin... not everyone can face it calmly.

Lu Qingtang blinked, feeling a little sad.

After a while, after confirming that Chi Mi would not be back in the short term, Lu Qingtang was about to take Ning Yan away when someone who had been waiting for a long time stepped forward and smiled at Lu Qingtang, "Miss, the commander asked us to take you home."

Lu Qingtang was stunned for a moment before she realized that she now had a mother.

She pulled her hair a little uncomfortably, hesitated for a moment, then turned to Ning Yan and said, "I'll go... You go back and comfort your mother, and tell her that I've avenged her and her father!"

Ning Yan looked at Lu Qingtang's pretty face, leaned over, and whispered, "Sister, if you don't feel comfortable over there, remember to come find me."

After saying that, he let go of Lu Qingtang in a very gentlemanly manner.

Lu Qingtang waved his hand and agreed, then followed Chi Mi's personal soldiers.

-

Chi Mi's personal guards escorted her to a small villa with beautiful scenery and respectfully said to Lu Qingtang, "This is the commander's private residence. If you have anything to do, please tell the servants. When the commander is done, he will come back to see you."

Lu Qingtang waved his hand to indicate that he understood.

The personal guard noticed her reserve, smiled slightly, turned and left, leaving Lu Qingtang alone.

Lu Qingtang stood in front of the villa, looking at the garden full of flowers. It was not until this moment that she realized that she had recognized a mother for herself...

Happy... a little bit, I think.

Excited… maybe?

Lu Qingtang touched his heart and felt... a strange feeling.

As she stood in the garden in a daze, a maid came out, looked at her, and said with a smile, "Miss, the commander called and said she won't be back until the evening. Would you like to take a bath first and then come to dinner?"

Hearing that Chi Mi would not be back in the short term, Lu Qingtang was no longer nervous.

She strolled to take a shower, then sat at the dining table. When she picked up the chopsticks, Lu Qingtang was stunned for a moment, turned around and saw the maid beside her, "How did you know..."

Has the commander-in-chief's intelligence system become so sophisticated that he can even find out exactly what a person he has just met likes to eat?

The maid smiled and replied, "Half of these dishes are made according to the commander's taste, the other half is made according to your father's taste, and the remaining part is obtained from the eldest young master of the Ning family."

Lu Qingtang blinked gently, and a sour feeling welled up in his heart.

Although Lu Qingtang has felt a lot of care, she has never been treated as a daughter.

Neither did Lu Wensheng.

The only mother-daughter relationship Lu Qingtang had ever come into contact with was between Mrs. Lu and Lu Wensheng.

But Mrs. Lu never cared about Lu Wensheng, and never specifically asked what Lu Wensheng liked to eat.

Lu Qingtang bit her lip. "Is it...her order?"

The maid smiled and said, "Yes, the commander-in-chief called and gave instructions when he came back."

"She doesn't know what you like to eat, so let's make some more."

“If you don’t like any of it, tell us and we’ll do it again.”

After hearing this, Lu Qingtang suddenly realized for a long time that Chi Mi and Mrs. Lu were different.

Someone as cruel and cold-hearted as Mrs. Lu cannot be considered a mother at all.

A real mother actually cares about what her children like to eat...

Lu Qingtang suppressed the sudden sourness in his heart, had a good lunch, and then ran back to his room to sleep.

I don’t know if it’s because I’ve untied the knot in my heart, but Lu Qingtang slept until the next afternoon.

When she opened her eyes and looked at the white ceiling, the large wooden bed, and the setting sun shining in through the window, she realized that a whole day and night had passed.

She can actually sleep so well...

Lu Qingtang pulled the hair on his head that was sticking up from sleeping, and just put on his clothes when someone suddenly knocked on the door from outside.

Lu Qingtang yawned lazily and responded casually, "Come in."

Lu Qingtang originally thought that the people coming in would be servants from the Commander-in-Chief's Mansion, but he didn't expect that when the door opened, an elderly man and woman would come in.

Lu Qingtang, "???"

The plainly dressed old man walked up to Lu Qingtang, his eyes shining. He looked at her cautiously and said softly, "My dear, did you get enough sleep? Did we disturb you?"

The old lady stepped forward, pushed the old man away, and said dissatisfiedly, "I told you that the child would come out after waking up. Why did you insist on knocking on the door? I want to see if I disturbed your sleep..."

The old man said aggrievedly, "I just saw the curtains were drawn..."

Lu Qingtang looked at the two energetic and imposing old men in front of him and blinked, "Who are you two..."

The old man immediately pushed the old lady aside, stood in front of Lu Qingtang, and said with a smile, "My dear, I'm your grandpa..."

Before the old woman could finish her words, she was pushed aside again. The old lady stood in front of Lu Qingtang, looking at her with shining eyes, her eyes full of love, "I am your grandmother... My dear, what do you like?"
