After traveling through time, my system is a scam

Chapter 167: The topic on the dinner table

Xiao Cheng also looked at Nanzhi, but this time he was no longer examining her, but was doubting her.

He suspected that this man had been bribed by someone.

Nanzhi looked straight at Xiao Chengyi, without any dodging in his gaze.

"If that doesn't work, call your second uncle over and let me do the math!"

What if he happens to be the heir?

The eldest son’s family has all died, so isn’t it that only the second son’s family is left?

It's strange to say, the deaths of Xiao Chengyi's family were quite interesting. His father died in a car accident, and his mother suddenly committed suicide by jumping into the sea two years later. They were all very bizarre, but no problems could be found.

He didn't even leave a single word for Xiao Chengyi.

Logically speaking, a mother who gives birth to a son, as a strong mother, will at least wait until the child reaches adulthood, right?

Moreover, they are from such a top-notch family, so they should be having too much fun eating, drinking and having fun.

Nanzhi doesn’t understand love. She doesn’t understand why a person would die for another person.

Xiao Chengyi listened to Nanzhi's words and made a phone call in front of her.

"Uncle, Grandpa said he missed you suddenly and asked you to come back for dinner!"

"Ok!"

"it is good!"

Nanzhi didn’t know what was said on the other end. She saw Xiao Chengyi put away his phone and looked at Nanzhi with a complicated expression.

"Ms. Fang, take a rest first. I'll ask the housekeeper to prepare dinner!"

Nanzhi immediately understood what this person meant.

Xiao Cheng also left the living room, and soon a maid took Nanzhi to the guest room upstairs to rest.

Nanzhi didn't refuse and followed him up.

She didn't know that Xiao Chengyi, who had just left the hall, returned to the study with a serious face.

In the study, Xiao Chengyi unlocked his phone and asked his secretary to help him check on his second uncle's family.

He suspected everyone except his second uncle.

He looked at the photos of three people on the desk.

That photo was taken when his father took him and his second uncle when he was 100 days old.

Dad's face was full of joy, and my second uncle also had a smile on his face.

Could it be that this person who treated him as his own son really did it?

Xiao Cheng couldn't help but doubt.

Thinking back to when he was a child, after his father died, he was so scared that he couldn't sleep. His second uncle held him in his arms all night long and coaxed him every time. When his grandfather taught him a lesson, he would stand up and speak for him.

Even brought him delicious food to meet his few requests.

He respects his grandfather and feels the same way about his second uncle as he does about his father.

Even later, Second Aunt was extremely kind to him and treated him with great enthusiasm every time.

Even later, when they had children, their love for him never diminished.

Even better than to Xiao Mufeng.

When Xiao Mufeng was a child, he was always jealous of him. Every time he deliberately bullied him, his second uncle and second aunt would always teach Xiao Mufeng a lesson.

but!

Are there really parents who don’t love their own children and treat their brothers’ children as their own?

He had never thought about this question before.

In the past, Xiao Cheng had seen other noble families fighting to the death for power and wealth. He always looked down on them in his heart, thinking that those people were not presentable and only cared about their own little piece of land. Now, thinking about it...

I hope that woman is talking nonsense.

Xiao Cheng also walked to the window of the study, looked out the window, stood straight, but with an inexplicable sadness.

The culprit, Nanzhi, was looking at the guest room curiously.

She saw that the guest room was larger than her living room and it seemed to be a small suite with everything in it.

Bedroom, bathroom, living room, and a place to read.

She casually touched the sofa and found it was made of the same material as the one in the hall downstairs.

Nanzhi picked up her phone, took a photo, and searched it on TB, but couldn't find it.

It’s weird.

She was still in a good mood admiring the room, completely unaware of the consequences her words had brought about.

Half an hour later, a servant came to invite her downstairs for dinner.

Nanzhi was playing connect the dots. When she heard the sound, she immediately stood up and opened the door.

Looking at the maid at the door, Nanzhi respectfully invited her to come down, and said "Thank you!"

When she arrived, there were already three men sitting at the table, an old man, a middle-aged man, and Xiao Chengyi.

Xiao Cheng also stretched out his hand to Nanzhi, motioning Nanzhi to sit next to him.

This action made the old man of the Xiao family a little confused.

Xiao's second uncle also looked at this scene curiously, "Cheng Yi, who is this?"

Xiao Cheng also smiled gently, "Second Uncle, this is the old Chinese doctor I invited to help Grandpa with his treatment. I found her in a small city."

"Her medical skills are very good and she can help people who are in need, so I thought of asking her to help grandpa!"

Nanzhi: .....

No, when did she learn Chinese medicine?

Although she was confused, she did not show it on her face and just smiled politely.

Xiao Jue burst into laughter when he heard this.

"Cheng Yi, how can people from small places compare to those old Chinese doctors in our Magic City? You are really trying all kinds of treatments for your illness!"

"You made such a fuss and wasted so much manpower and resources to bring her here!"

"You, you, you!"

Xiao Jue couldn't help but tease his nephew in front of his father.

Old Master Xiao also looked at Xiao Chengyi with a smile.

No one knows the character of this eldest grandson better than him.

He must have some purpose in doing this.

Xiao Cheng also listened to what his second uncle said and lowered his eyes.

If it were in the past, he just thought that his second uncle was concerned about him and was afraid that he would do something he shouldn't do.

But today.

Is it really just concern?

He didn't tell anyone about this, so how did his second uncle know about it?

Thinking of this, Xiao Cheng suppressed the doubts in his heart and spoke to his second uncle with the same respect as before.

"Actually, it's mainly for my second uncle. Last time, the hospital called me and said that my fatty liver is very serious. They asked me to drink less alcohol, but you didn't listen. This time when I was on a business trip, I happened to meet an old Chinese doctor who is good at liver disease. You should give it a try!"

After Xiao Chengyi finished speaking, he nodded at Nanzhi.

Xiao Jue saw the concern in his nephew's eyes and didn't find anything wrong, so he didn't reject his nephew's kindness.

"Cheng Yi cares so much about Second Uncle, Second Uncle really loves you for a reason!"

"You mean dad? This guy always clung to me when I was a kid. I don't know how many people envied me in the Magic City!"

This statement was indeed true, and even Mr. Xiao smiled and nodded in agreement.

"Sincerity for sincerity, Cheng Yi is a filial son. You treat him like your own father. He cares about your health, so your efforts over the years have not been in vain!"

Xiao Jue smiled complacently.

"Of course not. There is no one like our Xiao family in the entire Demon City."
