Chapter Summary
Butler Ning hesitated for a moment after hearing this, and then said, "He said he has information about the eldest lady. The Ning family hardly told anyone about this matter, and everyone thought that the Ning family consisted of the two children, Ning Yuetong and Ning Quruo. Seeing that Ao Qijun was about to leave, Ning Quruo quickly pulled himself together and said, "I just feel a little uncomfortable.
Butler Ning hesitated for a moment after hearing this, and then said, "He said he has information about the eldest lady.
The Ning family hardly told anyone about this matter, and everyone thought that the Ning family consisted of the two children, Ning Yuetong and Ning Quruo.
But they didn't know that the Ning family had an eldest daughter who had been abducted and sold for many years.
He was also very curious about how Ao Qijun knew about the eldest lady.
Ning Quruo felt a little impatient.
Ao Qijun knows nothing.
But since he was concerned about his sister, he still had to make a trip.
…
The Qingmei box in Fumanlou.
Ao Qijun had arrived first.
When the two men met, they looked at each other, with indifference in their eyes.
Ning Quruo sat down on the other side of the table.
There wasn't even a single greeting or small talk between the two of them.
As soon as the people arrived, the waiter started serving the food.
Exquisite dishes were served one after another, and soon filled the entire table.
Neither of them said a word until the last dish was served.
The atmosphere in the box was extremely silent and awkward.
Ao Qijun spoke first, "I heard that you were looking for your sister."
Ning Quruo was using chopsticks to pick at the sea bass in front of him. Its belly was almost torn apart. Upon hearing this, he raised his eyes and said "hmm" lightly.
His expression was overly cold.
Ao Qijun thought that Ning Quruo just didn't want to reveal her bottom line, so she pretended to be so cold.
Don't care.
"Coincidentally, I was on that ship as well."
Ning Quruo's face remained expressionless when he heard this.
Ao Qijun's brows furrowed.
If Ning Quruo just wanted to raise the price and didn't want to pay too much, then wouldn't it be too realistic for him to act like he was completely uninterested?
According to the information he received, Ning Quruo's personality has changed drastically recently. He did not continue to follow up on the original large regional aircraft project, and he directly let go of the smartphone project. He also has not met any of those rich second-generation friends.
Almost all the manpower and material resources were invested in finding that person.
Could it be that there was something wrong with the information he received?
"If Mr. Ning is not interested in this matter, then today's meeting will be cancelled."
He was too lazy to even eat.
It's a complete waste of time.
Ning Quruo then realized that he was a little too absent-minded.
He didn't know what was wrong with him recently.
Obviously, his sister's whereabouts are the most important thing, but he just can't muster the energy.
He worked in the study all day today, and a job that usually could be finished in a few hours took him ten hours.
Seeing that Ao Qijun was about to leave, Ning Quruo quickly pulled himself together and said, "I just feel a little uncomfortable. Mr. Ao, do you remember what happened on the boat?"
Ao Qijun's expression relaxed a little: "I found the family of a crew member at that time."
Ning Quruo narrowed his eyes, this was an important clue.
He would not ask Ao Qijun how he found out.
Ao Qijun couldn't possibly tell him.
The two people looked at each other.
Ning Quruo looked at Ao Qijun's increasingly deep frown, and her heart skipped a beat. She realized that she was too cold.
He coughed lightly, "What does Mr. Ao want?"
He tried to cheer himself up, but his expression was still a little unenthusiastic.
Ao Qijun actually wanted to turn around and leave.
But he had already offended Ning Ruoqing so much that he was unwilling to care about her anymore.
Ever since they last parted, Ning Ruoqing had not given up and called him several times.
