Qi Taiguo lingered in Ning Gang’s study for a long time. No one knew what they talked about, but Ning Ge could tell it must have been something important, because Qi Taiguo’s expression appeared even more resolute.
Ning Ge wasn’t the least bit curious about their conversation; everyone has their place and the things they’re supposed to do. Since his elder brother didn’t let him into the study to listen, it wasn’t something he needed to hear, so there was no need for him to ask.
If he needed to know, his elder brother would tell him how to proceed.
It was already eleven at night. Following this, Qi Taiguo would be training at the base for a week, where communication was inconvenient. He was concerned about Cheng Su, so he borrowed the old man’s study to call her.
Cheng Su was still lost in her thoughts. She was quite surprised to receive his call and even more surprised to hear that he was training in the Capital for the week and was currently at the Ning Family’s home.
"Yaozu also came. He talked to Ning Ge about what you asked..." Qi Taiguo repeated what Ning Ge had said.
Cheng Su cursed, "Cheng Yaozu, that big mouth!"
"They are concerned about you too!" Qi Taiguo said. "That person’s identity is so sensitive, and they fear you might get into trouble!"
Cheng Su curled up, her chin resting on her knees, and said, "Qi Taiguo, I’m scared!"
"Hmm?"
"Regardless of his identity, I’m afraid of having any connection with him. If he is a relative or my father, maybe that would be easier. But if he’s an enemy who killed a loved one, then..." Cheng Su’s voice trembled. "I’m scared of what the truth is, I’m afraid."
"So do you still want to keep investigating?" Qi Taiguo asked gently.
Cheng Su didn’t speak and was silent for a long time.
"See, you can’t let it go, can you? Even though you’re scared, you want to find out, don’t you?" Qi Taiguo said.
Cheng Su nodded. "Yes, if I don’t find out, I’ll be confused for two lifetimes. I, I don’t want that..."
"So you don’t need to be afraid. We’re all here. Whatever the truth may be, I’ll be with you to face it," Qi Taiguo said with a smile. "Remember, you’re the bravest person."
