Chapter 1365: Chapter 726: Mo Han & Wanwan Arc – Ning Wan Moves Out of Xi Mohan’s Villa
But Ning Wan fell silent, then didn’t say a word and just stood there motionless, as if she suddenly lost the ability to think, only feeling her mind go blank.
Xi Mohan stood there without moving, quietly watching her. However, seeing her silent demeanor, the man couldn’t help but slightly furrow his eyebrows. Just as he was about to speak, Ning Wan had already turned silently and quickly ran upstairs.
Xi Mohan watched Ning Wan’s back, assuming that she was in a bad mood and needed some quiet. After all, finding out that her biological mother wasn’t the one she had called ’mom’ for many years had to be distressing. It was understandable, so he didn’t dwell on it and went straight to the company after giving a few instructions to Aunt Li.
...
Song Qiao had already moved out from her family home, now living alone in a rental place. Although she didn’t have much money and barely managed to pay the rent with part-time jobs, compared to living with the Song Family, even if it was a bit tough here, it still felt worth it.
In the evening, just as she was about to go out to buy some groceries for dinner, she opened the door and saw Ning Wan standing there with a small suitcase, looking lost. Song Qiao was stunned for a moment but quickly reacted and walked up, "Wanwan, why are you standing here..."
Ning Wan, who had been in a daze, snapped back to reality upon hearing Song Qiao’s voice. She looked up and saw Song Qiao standing in front of her, was stunned for a moment, then quickly spoke, "I... I have nowhere to go, I just..."
She didn’t know how to continue.
Since her parents passed away, and now that the old man Ning wasn’t living at the Ning family’s old residence, she knew that her so-called uncle wasn’t kind to her, so she didn’t want to go back to the Ning family’s old home.
Although Ning Wan didn’t finish her sentence, Song Qiao understood her meaning and didn’t ask why she wasn’t staying with Xi Mohan. Instead, she smiled and said, "It’s just right, living alone is a bit boring, and there’s no one to talk to. If you come to live with me, that would be perfect, although you know my place is a bit small..."
Before Song Qiao could finish, Ning Wan shook her head and said, "It’s fine like this."
Hearing this, Song Qiao said nothing more. She took Ning Wan’s luggage and led her into her rental apartment. Fortunately, she had rented a two-bedroom apartment, initially planning to convert the other room into a study. However, it hadn’t been used, and now Ning Wan moving in was actually perfect.
...
When Xi Mohan returned from the company in the afternoon, he immediately sensed something was off in the villa. It was as if the servants were looking at him with more caution than usual.
Walking into the villa, the man took off his coat and instinctively glanced at the sofa area. At this time of day, Ning Wan would usually be there watching TV, but today there was no sign of her, which made him frown involuntarily. Then he lifted his foot and prepared to go upstairs.
Aunt Li knew Xi Mohan was back and came out of the kitchen with a bit of urgency, "Sir, you’re finally back. Miss Ning Wan went out this afternoon and hasn’t returned yet. Her phone is unreachable. Could something have happened?"
