Li Ning and his entourage tried food and wine at Sophia's restaurant, and after giving some corresponding suggestions, they left separately.

On the car back, Li Ning asked Shen Muzhi thoughtfully: "Do you think that the chef in Sophia's restaurant is a little familiar?" ”

Shen Muzhi thought for a moment, "I didn't pay much attention to it. After a pause, he asked, "Why did you suddenly ask him?" ”

"Gu Yan used to live abroad with his mother, and when his mother died not long ago, he asked him to return to China to find his father and hand over some relics. But the two sides have not been in contact for many years, the address Gu Yan got no longer exists, and he only has an old photo of his father that was blurry many years ago. Wen Yi also said before that he felt that Gu Yan was very familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it, maybe his father was someone we had met. ”

After a pause, Li Ning thought about it slightly and said, "I didn't think too much about it before, but when I saw Gu Yan smiling today, I also felt very familiar, but I couldn't remember who it looked like." ”

"What's his father's name?" Shen Muzhi asked.

"It seems to be called..."Li Ning tilted his head slightly and thought for a while before saying, "It seems to be called Zhao He Guo." ”

When Shen Muzhi heard this, he also searched for this name in his memory, but among the people he knew with the surname Zhao, there was no one named Zhao Mouguo.

"It's called Zhao Baoguo!" Li Ning suddenly remembered and said.

"The name is not very impressive. Do you want to help him find clues? Shen Muzhi glanced at Li Ning and asked.

"Before, Sisi kindly said that he wanted to help, but I didn't know Gu Yan when I first met, so I stopped it. During this time, Sophia said that Gu Yan was very good, and he was very simple, so he should not be a bad person. And not only Shan Wenyi, but even I feel familiar, maybe his father is really someone we have seen. After Li Ning finished speaking, he looked at Shen Muzhi and tested his meaning.

"It's not a difficult thing, let Mu Xing send someone to the restaurant tomorrow to collect information and photos of Gu Yan's father, there should be clues soon." Shen Muzhi agreed happily.

Li Ning smiled, "If you can really find Gu Yan's father and let them recognize each other, it should be considered a good deed." ”

Shen Muzhi smiled lightly disapprehantly, in fact, whether it was Gu Yan or his father, Shen Muzhi didn't care at all, but since Li Ning cared about this matter, he didn't mind being a personal favor.

The next morning, Sophia opened the phone to Li Ning and said, "Bai Xian asked someone to ask about Gu Yan, saying that you asked people to help find clues about Gu Yan's father. ”

Li Ning smiled and said, "Bai Xian's speed is quite fast. ”

"Gu Yan is very grateful to you, so he wants me to help you thank you." Sophia paused.

"It's not a big deal, and when you really find a clue, it's not too late to make a few more good dishes to express your gratitude." Li Ning said with a disappreciative smile.

Sophia laughed, "This is no problem, whether you can find it or not, you can come at any time and I will entertain you at any time." ”

"Don't bother with me now, I'm afraid I'm going to be busy after the official opening. Anyway, I don't have anything important to do these days, if you need anything, just call me at any time. ”

Li Ning was talking, and suddenly another phone call came, but it was an unfamiliar number, "I won't tell you first, I'll answer the phone." ”

"Okay, we'll talk later." Sophia answered and hung up.

Li Ning hesitated for a moment and pressed the answer button, "Hello." ”

"Hello Xiao Ning, I'm Liu Mingxuan, do you remember."

Li Ning was stunned for a moment when he heard this name before he reacted, "Hello Chairman Liu, of course I remember, but I can't leave phone calls with you before, I'm really sorry." ”

Liu Mingxuan smiled heartily, "I also asked Mu Zhi to call you." That's right, I don't know if you're free at noon today, my wife wants to invite you over for a light meal. ”

"Okay, so when is it more convenient for me to go over?" Li Ning agreed immediately without hesitation.

Hearing Li Ning's promise so happily, Liu Mingxuan couldn't help but smile even more, "My wife has always been at home, just come over at any time." ”

"Then I'll be disrespectful, I'll be there before noon later." Li Ning responded with a smile.

After hanging up the phone, Li Ning took the mobile phone and thought for a while, and then called Shen Muzhi again.

"Mu Zhi, just now Chairman Liu asked me to go to his house for lunch." Li Ning said directly.

"Well, I know about it." Shen Muzhi responded, as if he knew what Li Ning was thinking, and then said, "Today is the death day of Aunt Shu's first child, so Aunt Shu's mood will be very bad these days, Liu Dong knows that Aunt Shu gets along with you very well, so I think if you are here, maybe it will make her feel better." ”

Li Ning was stunned for a moment, and asked with some surprise: "Their child's death day?" ”

"Well, it was more than a decade ago."

"Okay, I see, I'll be over later." Li Ning sighed in his heart and hung up the phone.

Because Li Ning had accidentally lost a child before, although the child had not yet been born, it had already left a wound in Li Ning's heart that was difficult to heal, not to mention the flesh and blood that was born in October.

Li Ning changed his clothes, called the driver and drove to Liu Mingxuan's house.

Getting out of the car in front of the door, Li Ning rang the doorbell twice. After a while, Lin Yishu came to open the door for Li Ning.

"Aunt Shu is disturbed." Li Ning said, and took the initiative to hug Lin Yishu.

Lin Yishu was suddenly hugged by Li Ning, and her body couldn't help but stiffen, but she relaxed in an instant, hugged Li Ning and gently patted her back.

"I just didn't have anyone to eat lunch with me, so I'm here for you." Li Ning let go of the hug, took Lin Yishu's hand and walked into the house.

When Li Ning entered the door, he didn't see Liu Mingxuan, and asked strangely: "Isn't Dong Liu at home?" ”

Lin Yishu smiled, took out a small notebook and wrote a few words for Li Ning to read.

"He went out to meet his friends, so I'll accompany Aunt Shu to enjoy my sister's time." Li Ning looked at the small book and said with a smile.

Lin Yishu nodded with a smile and pointed to the location of the kitchen.

Li Ning followed Lin Yishu over and saw that the ingredients in the kitchen were ready, but they hadn't been made yet.

Lin Yishu wrote in a notebook: "I don't know when you came, I'm afraid that you will drive, so I didn't send a text message." ”

"It's okay, we can cook it together, and you can also give me some pointers." Li Ning said as he took off his coat and put it in the living room, then rolled up his sleeves and washed his hands and put on an apron.

Lin Yishu kept smiling when she looked at Li Ning, that kind of smile with a very warm gaze, so that people would not feel uncomfortable even if they were stared at by her all the time.
