737: Soft-Hearted

Soft-Hearted

"Young Miss' son, Mu Lang," Ning Chun said with a smile as he looked at the screen.1

Ning Zhe's eyes did not leave the screen as he asked, "Where did you get this?"

"I had someone sneak into the children's activity center. Little Young Master Mu Lang is in good health and likes sports. Old Madam Mu doesn't coddle him and lets him try anything he wants. The Little Young Master is also very generous with people." Ning Chun said softly.

Ning Zhe could not put the phone down at all.

"Master, Eldest Young Miss and the Little Young Master are very happy," Ning Chun said softly.

Ning Zhe did not say anything.

The sound of Mu Lang's laughter rang in the room.

Ning Zhe knew the meaning of Ning Chun's words. His heart softened slightly at this moment. After a while, he stopped the video and locked the phone before giving it back to Ning Chun. Then, he said, "The embroidery manual is very important to the Ning family. If the Ning family continues like this, I'm afraid that sooner or later, it won't be able to continue. I just can't watch the Ning family decline in the hands of the younger generation…"

Ning Chun remained silent.

The silence between the two was laden with unconcealable sadness.

After a long time, Ning Chun said softly, "The poison was brought in by the Young Master. Madam should be aware of it as well. The poisoning shouldn't only be the work of one person."

"Where did this poison come from?" Ning Zhe asked calmly.

"The Young Master has a friend called Ji An. He runs a gym and often helps people to deal with problems in private. He has some fugitives under him. Some time ago, this Ji An committed a crime and was caught," Ning Chun said in a low voice.

Ning Zhe frowned. "How did he meet such a person?"

Ning Chun thought about it for a moment before he said, "Young Master met Ji An through Ye Cheng. There are rumors that Ji An was actually Mu Qing's subordinate. Hence, Young Master's friendship with Ji An might have been part of a conspiracy from the start."

Ning Zhe glanced at Ning Chun as he asked, "Even now, you're still hoping to settle things peacefully, right? You want to tell me that my children are filial, but they've just been led astray by others." He sighed before he continued to say, "One of them doesn't acknowledge me as her father, and the other wants to kill me."

Ning Chun, whose intention was exposed, could not help but avert his eyes.

Ning Zhe sighed softly. "Ning Chun, I'd rather rely on you than them. Whether it's ability, loyalty, or filial piety, you're much better than them. You're really a gift from heaven."

"Master…"

Ning Zhe leaned back and said, "What will come will come, and what's meant to leave will not stay. Ning Chun, no matter what, I still have you. As long as I'm alive, as long as you're by my side, I won't fall."

Ning Chun nodded slightly. "Young Master and Second Young Miss Yin have already gotten to know each other. However, Second Young Miss Yin seems to be interested in Mu Chen. I don't know what she's up to. Young Master seems rather interested in Second Young Miss Yin. The two of them have been seeing each other almost every day recently."

Ning Zhe sneered. "Have you not noticed that he's actually very practical and knows how to pave the way for himself? Let him be. If he's able to marry the Second Young Miss of the Yin family, it can be considered that he has made contributions to the Ning family. However, we must keep an eye on him and make sure he doesn't use the Ning family's connections. As for that girl… We can't let her ruin Xiaxia's marriage."

"No matter how useful she is, we can't just watch and let her harm Xiaxia. You're right. Why should we make an enemy out of Xiaxia? Instead of allying with others, we might as well ally ourselves with the Mu family. It can also be considered as keeping it in the family. Why let outsiders benefit from us?"

Ning Chun only looked at Ning Zhe silently, feeling at a loss for words. If the embroidery manual was in the Ning family, then Ning Zhe's words made sense. However, the embroidery manual was with Song Ning and had nothing to do with the Ning family.
