Chapter 730: 194: Go to Ni Family _1
Like.
Very much alike.
Even though he can’t pinpoint who exactly this child resembles, the old man immediately thought of his daughter who has been missing for many years.
Indeed, this old man is Zheng Jun, the patriarch of the Zheng family.
Lately, the old man has been feeling his health deteriorating by the day, hence he no longer stays in his room all day as he did before.
He hoped to find his only daughter, to lay eyes on her one more time before his departure.
Whether she’s alive or dead, he wished to receive some news.
If the unfortunate really happened… he wanted to offer incense at his daughter’s grave.
“My name is Ni Yang. Ni as in a single person, and Yang as in producing smoke from warming jade in the sun.” For reasons unknown, Ni Yang felt an inexplicable closeness upon seeing Old Master Zheng.
Old Master Zheng was not a man of many words and would hardly speak a word to Zheng Xianjing in half a month. However, today, he couldn’t help but introduce himself to Ni Yang, “My surname is Zheng. I’m called Zheng Jun. Zheng as in ‘cover the ears’, Jun as in ‘a critical moment’.”
“Grandpa Zheng, just call me Yangyang.” Ni Yang continued, “By the way, did you injure your foot?”
Speaking of which, Old Master Zheng responded with a painful smile, “I was just chasing a thief. Who knew that I wouldn’t catch the thief, but instead sprain my own leg.”
“Is it this foot?” Ni Yang crouched down halfway.
Old Master Zheng nodded.
“Let me take a look.”
Today, the snow had melted, leaving a lot of muddy water on Old Master Zheng’s shoes, but Ni Yang didn’t mind the dirt, directly taking off his shoes, “It seems slightly displaced, let me reset it for you. It might hurt a little, try to bear with it.”
“Okay,” Old Master Zheng nodded, “Thanks, Yangyang.”
While talking to Old Master Zheng, Ni Yang was also diverting his attention.
“Crack.”
The intense pain makes Old Master Zheng turn pale. Ni Yang stood up from the ground, “Grandpa Zheng, try standing up.”
Old Master Zheng got up from the steps, tried to walk a few steps, and said in surprise, “It doesn’t hurt anymore! Not at all! Yangyang, you are really amazing!”
Unconsciously, Old Master Zheng didn’t realize that he’s been speaking more and his typically serious face had also broken into many smiles.
Ni Yang smiled, “It’s just a little trick.”
