Ling Hao was not surprised when he saw Ning Xiao's resignation letter. He smiled and patted Ning Xiao on the shoulder and said, "What? You finally figured it out and are you willing to go back and help your uncle?"

Ning Xiao smiled helplessly and replied: "I can't help it. I really want to play for two more years. However, my father is really old and his energy is not as good as before. How can I just ignore it?"

ah?"

"That's right." Ling Hao said cheerfully, "I know I can't escape my fate, so why not just accept it."

Ning Xiao shrugged noncommittally.

Ling Hao's face suddenly became serious and he asked with concern: "Did anything happen last night?"

"No more..." Ning Xiao became uneasy when she thought of going home, "But, I always feel that something is wrong at home. When I got home, everything was different, even Xu Ma was gone."

"What? Xu Ma is gone?" Ling Hao was also very surprised when he heard the news, because he was very aware of Xu Ma's status in the Ning family. Since his aunt passed away, Xu Ma has been responsible for all the housework.

Without Xu Ma, the family would still be in chaos?

"Yeah." Ning Xiao sighed.

"Then why?" Ling Hao also smelled an unusual smell, "Isn't Mother Xu childless? Where can she go?"

"Dad said that Xu Ma wanted to steal things from the house, so he drove her away. As for where she went, I really don't know." Thinking of Xu Ma's motherly look, full of love for him, Ning Xiao said

My heart immediately became sad, as if there was a big stone pressing on my chest.

"Xu Ma would not do such a thing!" Xu Ma is a diligent and responsible person. Ling Hao, who knows Xu Ma, also firmly believes that she will not do anything to regret the Ning family. She has regarded the Ning family as her own.

Jia, "There must be some misunderstanding here. It's okay. I'll ask someone to find out the whereabouts of Xu Ma first, and then I'll find my uncle to explain the matter clearly. It'll be fine."

Ling Hao could see that Ning Xiao was depressed. Ever since her aunt passed away, Xu Ma had cared for Ning Xiao like a mother, and Ning Xiao had already regarded her as his mother in his heart. Now Xu Ma is silent like this.

How could Ning Xiao not be sad when Xiang Da left? Ling Hao quickly made a phone call and ordered people to search for Xu Ma's whereabouts.

"Did you guys do anything last night?" Ning Xiao asked Ling Hao. He thought about it for a long time last night. He always felt that the abnormalities and dirty things at home were probably there before, rather than brought back by him.

of.

"No?" Ling Hao also felt very strange, "If there is really something unclean brought back from the ancient tomb, there is no reason why you are the only one to encounter it? And I also asked Baifu this morning, and she also said

Nothing unusual. Could it be that it wants to deal with them one by one?"

"So, my intuition also tells me that the things at home may have nothing to do with the ancient tomb." Ning Xiao analyzed, "Because my father had already driven Xu Ma away before I came home. Moreover, my father

It’s really abnormal! Last night, I kindly wanted to cover him with a quilt, but he suddenly yelled and finally told me to get out and never enter his room again. Ever since he was a child, he has never

You've never been so cruel to me! Do you know why?"

Looking at Ning Xiao's aggrieved look, Ling Hao really couldn't guess. The father and son had been dependent on each other since childhood, and their relationship was definitely not comparable to that of an ordinary father and son. He really wanted to know why he was yelling at Ning Xiao.

"Why?"

Ning Xiao smiled bitterly and said sourly: "For an antique porcelain vase. He thought I was going to steal his porcelain vase."

"Porcelain vase?" Ling Hao knew that his uncle was an antique fanatic, but after covering him with the quilt for just a moment, he mistakenly thought he wanted to steal his porcelain vase. Is it an exaggeration?

"Could it be that Mother Xu also entered my uncle's room for cleaning or something, so he mistakenly thought she wanted to steal something?" Ling Hao speculated.

Ning Xiao nodded in agreement: "Actually, I think so too. I am his son, and he still holds the porcelain vase in his arms, so he thinks I am a thief. Not to mention Mother Xu!"

"What, does my uncle just sleep with a porcelain vase in his arms?" Ling Hao couldn't help but open his mouth, "What kind of porcelain vase is it? Is it worthy for my uncle to hold it in his arms and sleep?" This uncle has collected countless antiques, and he often collects them.

Take it out and show it off to yourself. For a person who owns so many antiques, what kind of thing is it that can be cherished so much by a person who has seen countless treasures?

"It's just a white porcelain vase. Experts say the history is at least a thousand years ago, but none of them can tell where it was made." Ning Xiao couldn't help but sigh again, "I think dad loves that now

The porcelain vase loves me far more than she loves me."

"How could it be?" Ling Hao immediately consoled him, "Thousand-year-old porcelain vases are rare, but my uncle should have quite a few of them?" He knew that his uncle had a very large blue and white porcelain vase from the Yuan Dynasty. If it were to be sold in the international market,

The auction can fetch at least over 100 million!

"Yes! But that's the only thing he loves!" Although Ning Xiao also thought it was funny to eat vinegar from a porcelain bottle, she still couldn't help but feel a little sour in her heart.

"Okay, just stop thinking so much and wait until you find Mother Xu."

As he was talking, suddenly the door rang.

"Please come in!" Ling Hao sat back down in his seat and resumed his usual aloof manner.

It turned out to be Momofuku.

Baifu walked in with a smile and put the documents on Ling Hao's desk: "These documents were sent here at the request of President Su. He asked you to approve them as soon as possible."

"Okay, I know."

"Then I'll go out first." Baifu turned around gracefully and walked out.

As soon as Baifu went out, Ning Xiao couldn't wait to ask Ling Hao: "Do you feel that Baifu is a little different from usual?"

Ling Hao nodded in agreement and said, "I think Baifu finally looks like a mature woman."

Ning Xiao just stepped out of Ling Hao's office when he saw Baifu winking and pouting to let him go. He walked over in a funny way, wanting to see what Baifu wanted to do mysteriously.

Seeing Ning Xiao coming over, Baifu quickly grabbed his two hands and kept looking over them: "Aren't you injured? Where is the injury? Quickly let me see!"

"Here it is." Ning Xiao opened her right sleeve and couldn't help but feel sweet in her heart.

"Oh! It's so serious." When Baifu saw the purple-black bruises on Ning Xiao's wrist, he screamed in a fuss. He immediately took out the Yunnan Baiyao spray that he had prepared and rubbed it again and again.

Ning Xiao also looked like he was grinning from ear to ear, happily watching Baifu fussing over the medicine for himself. But neither of them paid attention. A pair of jealous eyes were looking at them.

"Your scars are different from mine." Baifu looked at Ning Xiao and said, "My scars are black and smaller than yours. Your scars are larger and have some red color showing through.

. Do you think it could be something from the ancient tomb?"

"To be honest, I feel that I probably wasn't the one who recruited him. Because before I came home, something was already wrong at home." After saying that, Ning Xiao told Baifu exactly what happened, and then there was another scene in front of him.

My father's back in the moonlight flashed past. It seemed that something was right in front of me, but I couldn't grasp it.

"So...you won't be back to the company tomorrow, will you?" After listening quietly, Baifu asked with some reluctance. Although sometimes he felt that Ning Xiaohuo was like a monkey with ADHD and could never calm down.

But it is undeniable that he is indeed a very interesting friend. Especially after experiencing the ancient tomb exploration, there is an even more life-or-death friendship between them.

"Yes, I have already told my father that I will go back to the company tomorrow to help." Ning Xiao was also very reluctant to leave Baifu, "Don't worry, I will come back to see you often."

Baifu took out two more talismans from the drawer and handed them to Ning Xiao: "Yi Dao went back to the mountain to find his master. I took these from his room. One of these two talismans is for your father, and the other one is for your father."

Just give it to Xu Ma. After Yi Dao comes back, I will ask him to go to your house to take a look! You must remember that if anything goes wrong again, you must tell me! I will do my best to help you!" Baifu

He covered Ning Xiao's hand with his own hand.

Ning Xiao was very touched by Baifu's encouragement, and happily felt Baifu's care.

"Your hands are very cold. Are you cold?" Ning Xiao asked strangely. Baifu's hands were really cold, as if they had no body temperature.

"Really?" Baifu looked up at the air conditioner above his head and replied with a smile, "Maybe the air conditioner is turned on too high."

"That's it." Ning Xiao regretted that she didn't have many clothes to keep Baifu warm, "Remember, you should bring an extra piece of clothes when you are in the company in the future to avoid catching a cold!"

"I know, it's so verbose."

"Hey, I care about you, how heartless!"
