Chapter 1989: The Battle XLI
Qiu Hui was startled after hearing Xia Xia’s words.
She was silent for a moment. “I remember Hui You never left Nine Gate. The only time was when the Nan family kidnapped her, but that was five years ago. So why is Xia Xia claiming this?”
“I don’t recognize her face.” Xia Xia shook her head. “Her scent is familiar, but her face is unfamiliar.”
‘The scent is familiar, but the face is unfamiliar…’
The crowd was confused, not understanding what Xia Xia meant by this…
Xia Xia stood up from the ground.
“Really… I’m not lying. I have some impression that she resembles someone.”
“Who?” Qiu Hui asked as she frowned.
“I heard my grandmother call her Nan Luo… Yes, she’s called Nan Luo!” Xia Xia finally remembered from whom she had sensed that breath before. She bit her lip and said, “Grandmother doesn’t like her. Father and Mother also hate her, but she seems to like Father a lot, then she disappeared and did not come back.”
Qiu Hui’s face instantly sank, and she fell into deep thought.
‘Xia Xia will not lie.
‘I trust her…
‘Why would Xia Xia say Hui You is Nan Luo?
‘Isn’t Nan Luo of the Nan family already dead?’
The elder in a grey robe pondered for a while and said, “I remember Hui Yan said to me before that when Hui You was able to escape, Nan Luo had helped her, and the Nan family wanted to use Hui You to deal with Nine Gate…”
‘Hui You is Nan Luo?
‘If she’s really Nan Luo, then the real Hui You must have died…’
Another elder suddenly said, “You guys didn’t know Hui You. I once took care of her for a while when she was sick. Hui Yan went out for a mission and gave Hui You to me. That girl was well-behaved and understanding. She would never offend anyone. If you gave orders, she would not go against you. But now, you’ve ordered that no one is allowed to disturb Xia Xia, but that girl still snuck into this place…”
The old Hui You would never do this kind of thing.
“Moreover, Hui You is so understanding. She would not have told Xia Xia that her mother and father are missing or dead even if they are really in trouble. Hui You knows that Xia Xia will be sad.”
Hui You was a kind girl back then. She would not do anything that could make others annoyed with her.
These five years, Hui You did not go out much, and they rarely met her…
No one expected that she would do such things.
She was full of lies…
Yet she claimed that she did not mean it?
Who else would believe it except for that foolish Hui Yan?
“If Hui You is really Nan Luo…” Qiu Hui sneered. “I will make her life worse than death.”
Xia Xia c.o.c.ked her head and blinked. “I don’t like her, Aunt Qiu. I don’t want to see her again. She’s not a good person.”
Qiu Hui lowered her head and stroked Xia Xia’s small head gently.
“Alright, she won’t have the chance to come back in the future.”
“Mhmm.”
Xia Xia nodded, showing her cute teeth.
She smiled brightly, innocently.
“Aunt Qiu, when will Grandmother and Great Grandfather find my parents? I miss them so much.”
Xia Xia sighed.
Qiu Hui’s heart sank slightly.
‘Maiden Feng is missing, but no one knows whether she’s alive or dead…
‘Tianya has been looking for her for five years, and those rubbles have been moved back and forth countless times.
‘But they found nothing…’
She couldn’t tell Xia Xia as she did not want this little girl to worry.
“He will find them soon. Once Tianya has found them, he will tell me first, and I will take you to see them.”
The crowd was shocked.
They did not want Xia Xia to leave Nine Gate…
But…
Xia Xia had grown up and was hard to control. They could do nothing if she wanted to leave Nine Gate…
