As expected, Ning Xi was stopped by a soldier when she reached the entrance. "Please show your permit pass."
Ning Xu turned around to the old man. "Sir…"
The old man slowly opened his mouth to croak, "Let her in."
The soldier seemed to be shocked when he realized who was at the back, then he replied in a clear and loud "Yes, Sir!" before opening the gate.
Ning Xi was not familiar with the place, so she followed the old man’s shaky finger directions to an ancient-looking house. Upon arriving, she helped the old man to get down.
She could feel that the old man was still very weak and he probably could not even stand without her help. Something had probably happened at home and he insisted to come back…
As she was helping him up the stairs, there was a terrifying gunshot sound coming from inside the house.
Ning Xi was shocked and her face became ashen, but she was more worried about the old man. She was afraid that his heart condition might worsen…
