Spoiled by the CEO after amnesia!-Chapter 1099 - 1077: Father and Son Reunion (Part 1)
——————————****——————————
Early morning.
Yunling City, Airport.
At the VIP exit, red carpets are laid out lavishly along the way.
Two rows of suited bodyguards await the client who’s about to leave the airport.
Not far away, several bodyguard cars are parked.
The grand formation indicates that the person disembarking must be of high status.
A tall figure stands among the subordinates, exuding a stern aura.
A deep black custom-made suit wraps around Nie Yixiao’s tall frame of over 1.85 meters, with a narrow waist and broad shoulders, sharp features, quietly gazing at the exit, his half-pressed thin lips showing a hint of abstinence.
The esteemed guest to be received today is not an ordinary tycoon but a political figure.
It’s said to be Ning Xiaochuan, the head director of the Beijing State Security Bureau.
Ning Xiaochuan himself is not only a high-ranking political official but also conferred with the title of general, holding significant power in the north.
This time, Ning Xiaochuan privately brought his wife and daughter to Yunling without alerting the local government; he just asked someone to contact the best local bodyguard company for personal protection.
Because the guest being protected this time is of noble status, Nie Yixiao, the Boss, personally came over.
Finally, a commotion arises at the airport’s VIP exit.
A group of subordinates surrounds people as they walk out, sending the person in the middle into a bodyguard car.
Nie Yixiao arranges for a group to get in the cars, and he too boards the frontmost car.
The column of cars heads toward the already booked hotel.
...
Hotel.
Nie Yixiao instructs his subordinates to escort the Ning family of three to the elevator and then conducts a security survey downstairs.
After everything is settled, he walks with his assistant Xiaozhang toward the hotel exit.
A ding from the elevator behind, followed by light footsteps, catches up: "Mr. Nie."
Nie Yixiao turns around, a young girl exits from the elevator, calling out to him.
The girl is about twenty, with long eyelashes and a doll-like appearance, innocent and lovely, her attire unmistakably that of a wealthy heiress, exactly Ning Xiaochuan’s only daughter, Ning Duoduo.
"Miss Ning, is there something else Mr. Director Ning requires?" Xiaozhang politely asks.
Ning Duoduo walks over, ignoring Xiaozhang’s question, only scrutinizing Nie Yixiao with a gentle smile: "Please, Mr. Nie, come upstairs."
"If it’s business, I’ve already arranged enough subordinates for Mr. Director Ning and Mrs. Ning, Miss Ning, for close protection, and the hotel’s internal security measures are very thorough." Nie Yixiao does not compromise simply because the other party is a guest.
Ning Duoduo sticks out her tongue: "I’ve long heard Mr. Nie is renowned in the industry as an ice man who never flatters clients nor engages in networking, today I see, your reputation is well-deserved. But, it’s my dad who asked you up."
Nie Yixiao frowns, pauses, glances at Xiaozhang, and follows Ning Duoduo upstairs.
The suite of Ning Xiaochuan and his wife is on the 35th floor; the Ning family has booked the entire floor.
The whole corridor is filled with bodyguards from the Nie company; seeing the Boss coming upstairs, they nod respectfully: "Boss, Miss Ning."
Ning Duoduo leads Nie Yixiao into the suite, knocks on the door: "Dad, Mr. Nie is here."
"Come in." A deep male middle-aged voice comes from inside.
Ning Duoduo twists the doorknob, sweetly smiles back: "Please come in."
Nie Yixiao looks at Ning Duoduo’s lily-like smile, expressionless, not hurrying in: "What does Mr. Director Ning want with me?"
If it’s about arranging the itinerary and processes in Yunling, subordinates are handling it for him; Ning Xiaochuan shouldn’t need to specifically find him.
The sharp, cold gaze makes Ning Duoduo take a deep breath, getting straight to the point: "Mr. Nie, it’s true that my dad wanted you for something. Actually, our visit to Yunling this time is—because of you."
The Ning family came because of him?
Nie Yixiao’s demeanor tightens, but sees Ning Duoduo has already pushed open the door: "Dad, Mr. Nie is here."
Nie Yixiao walks slowly into the room, where a dignified middle-aged man sits in a chair by the window, stands up with a clatter upon seeing him, excitedly.
This is Ning Xiaochuan, who wields power in the north and is influential in the political scene.
Nie Yixiao’s heart jumps, sensing something momentous.
As expected, Ning Xiaochuan’s trembling voice is uncontrollable: "Are you Yixiao?"
Ning Duoduo supports Ning Xiaochuan, aware of his weak heart, fearing his excitement might cause problems: "Yes, Dad, he is Nie Yixiao."
Nie Yixiao’s eyes shift, the middle-aged man before him has handsome facial lines, thick black eyebrows, a high nose bridge; though he is older, it’s visible he was quite a looker in his youth.
Most importantly, there’s a striking seven-to-eight part resemblance to himself.
"Do you know who I am?" Ning Xiaochuan pushes aside Ning Duoduo, approaches, unable to control his excited tone: "I am your biological father—Yixiao, I’ve finally found you—"
Although Nie Yixiao had some guesses, hearing Ning Xiaochuan’s words personally still makes him pause, lips slightly upturning: "My biological father is a gambling addict who ran off before I was born, possibly long cut down by debt collectors; I was raised by my grandma. I think, Mr. Director Ning’s joke is too much."
The man’s tone pushes away like a thousand miles.
Ning Xiaochuan understands he cannot accept it immediately, Adam’s apple moves, expressing guilt and sentiment: "Yixiao, did your grandma tell you these things? I’m sorry to you and your mom... But, can you listen to me?"
Nie Yixiao remains silent, only hearing Ning Xiaochuan’s voice continuing: "...When I was young, I was a soldier, joined the anti-narcotics team, and was transferred by the national government overseas, circulating in several Southeast Asian countries for drug intelligence gathering. After marrying your mom, we didn’t see each other much; your mom came to Southeast Asia to meet me more often. Those days were the sweetest between your mom and me. The work of national intelligence personnel is confidential, not to be disclosed to outsiders; she couldn’t tell anyone about her husband’s job and identity, not even your grandma, just said I was doing business abroad... I thought such days would continue until my work finished, and I could return home to live with your mom... But right before your mom was due, the organization suddenly assigned a task to me and several colleagues to infiltrate a drug trafficking group."
At this, Ning Xiaochuan’s voice chokes slightly: "...I couldn’t tell your mom about the undercover mission. In the second month of being undercover, my identity and a colleague’s were exposed within the trafficking group, and we were secretly executed by them. Fortunately, we found a chance to escape, but during the escape, that colleague was shot while protecting me and died, while I narrowly escaped under his cover, my life was spared, however..."
