3037 I Think You Have Forgotten Nie Qixing's Origin

On the second floor.

Old Master Nie was with the current Patriarch.

They were discussing Nie Qixing.

"Dad, Qingru must have come back for Qixing."

"I know." Old Master Nie lay weakly on the bed. His silver hair showed he was already in his eighties or nineties.

Nie Tao said in a frustrated tone, "Qixing is too disappointing! How did he get involved in that kind of business?! Even the most useless branch family member doesn't touch this kind of business. He... Sigh!"

Old Master Nie lay on the bed with his pillow propped up. He did not react to his indignation and reproach, as if he was deep in thought.

Nie Tao carefully probed his att.i.tude. "Dad, many people in the family have objections to this incident. Several elders have looked for me to reconsider my future successor..."

Old Master Nie glanced at him and understood what he was thinking. He did not give a clear answer. "I'll think about it..."

At this moment.

The door was suddenly pushed open.

They saw Nie Qingru walk in arrogantly.

Traces of age could be seen in her eyes, and the corners of her mouth were curled up slightly. Her face was cold and solemn, and her smile did not reach her eyes. "What do you want to consider? Let me hear it too. Hmm?"

Nie Tao's expression changed drastically, and he quickly became fearful. He hid his disgust and fear and forced a smile. "Qingru, you're here."

Nie Qingru walked to Old Master Nie's bedside. Without saying a word, Shadow silently brought her a chair. "Empress."

Nie Qingru slowly sat down under their gazes. Her smile did not change, but her eyes were as fierce as an eagle staring at its prey as she looked at Nie Tao and Old Master Nie. "What are Father and Eldest Brother talking about?"

Old Master Nie's expression became unnatural. He covered his mouth with his hand and coughed. "Nothing. When did you arrive?"

"Just now." Nie Qingru covered him with a blanket. Her pitch-black eyes were like ghostly flames as she stared at Old Patriarch Nie's aged face. Suddenly, she said, "Those people outside don't remember how Qixing came about. Dad, don't tell me you also don't remember how Qixing was born?"

Her words were like a thunderclap, causing the Nie father and son's expressions to

become extremely interesting.

Nie Tao quickly tried to smooth things over. "Qingru, why are you bringing this up again? Didn't we agree not to mention this for the sake of Qixing's growth?"

"I think you've forgotten." Nie Qingru retracted her hand.

Nie Tao quickly smiled. "No, how could we forget?"

Nie Qingru's ghostly gaze swept across his face, inch by inch, like a warning and a threat. "A person's memory is limited. Especially when one is old, their memory will deteriorate day by day. Sometimes, it's inevitable they will forget important things. For example... Qixing was a gift you begged to give me."

"Cough, cough!" Old Master Nie coughed violently.

"Water." Nie Qingru stretched out her hand.

Shadow immediately poured a gla.s.s of water and handed it to her.

Nie Qingru fed the water to Old Master Nie, gentle and filial. She even held Old Master Nie's back to calm him down.

However, this scene was like torture in Nie Tao's eyes. He stood uneasily and said, "Qingru, why do you have to agitate Dad? He's old and can't withstand agitation."

Nie Qingru fed the old man water and handed the empty cup to Shadow. Then, she gently propped up the pillow, put the old man back on the pillow, and tucked him in.
