    Chapter 718


    Mango was very confused. Why couldn''t she tell Novalee the truth?


    Henry thought for a moment before saying, "My sister disagreed with me in sending my parents''


    memorial tablets back here. She said that there was nobody else staying here. It was meaningless


    to send them back. Moreover, my parents'' situation isplicated. My sister insisted them be


    buried in the Martyr''s Cemetery ."


    Mango paused for a moment.


    When it came to Novalee''s family background, she did some digging previously only because of


    Walter''s incident. She only knew that Novalee''s parents died in the line of duty. Hence, they should


    supposedly be titled martyrs then.


    "Shouldn''t your parents be considered martyrs?"


    "They should be, but the money for the initial transaction has been lost. Now, there is no conclusion


    about this matter and they can''t be buried in the Martyr''s Cemetery. My sister is truly pissed off


    about this, and she is bound to seek redress for my parent. I know that she did this for the sake of


    our parents, but sometimes I do hope that they will return to their roots. No matter what the outside


    world says, they are my parents after all."


    Henry''s expression was slightly forlorn.


    Mango understood him. She patted his shoulder and said, "I understand. Don''t worry, I won''t tell


    her."


    "Thank you, Mrs. Ye."


    "What are you guys talking about?"


    Just as Nathaniel finished his acupuncture, he came over and saw them chatting happily, so he


    couldn''t help asking.


    Mango told Nathaniel about Henry''s identity. At the same time, he also told Nathaniel about the


    rtionship between Novalee and Walter.


    When Henry heard that his sister had found a boyfriend, he was quite happy.


    "So, she already has a boyfriend. I''m d to hear that. Why didn''t she tell me that?"


    "Maybe they haven''tmitted to each other yet but the guy has a great personality. You can rest


    assured that your sister is safe with him."


    Mango''s words had piqued Henry''s interest in Walter.


    "Do you have any photos of him?"


    "Of course, take a look here."


    Mango found Walter''s photo and sent it to Henry.


    While Nathaniel saw them engaged in heated discussion, he smiled and nodded his head as he


    walked away.


    Seeing him like this, Noah touched his arm and said, "Aren''t you jealous?"


    "Why do I need to be jealous of a kid?"


    Nathaniel sat aside as he spoke.


    Noah also sat next to him.


    "Honestly speaking, Mango had put in a lot of effort for your incident during this period. She''d nearly


    contacted every expert in the world to cure your illness. Unfortunately, your illness ended up being


    cured by Nanny Zhang. Perhaps it''s destiny. When Nanny Zhang died, I know that you were sad


    and I understand the rtionship between you and Nanny Zhang. No matter what she has done,


    she''s still your mother. You wouldn''t forgive her when she''s alive. Conversely, you''ll forgive her


    when she''s dead. However, Nathan, you''re you, and you''re not Mango. You may forgive everything


    that Nanny Zhang has done, but Mango can''t stand the fact that she''ll never be able to be a


    mother again for the rest of her life. It''s okay for you to mourn Nanny Zhang but you can''t do much.


    A person should care more for the living, right?"


    Upon hearing Noah''s words, Nathaniel nodded.


    "I know. I''m feeling sad about Nanny Zhang''s death, but that''s not what made me sentimental. The


    reason that I want to buy this ce and refurbish it is not merely for Nanny Zhang. Before she died,


    she told me that Mango''s vocal cords were damaged. If I want it to bepletely recovered, I


    should find something called blue nymph grass. It is said to live next to the cemetery. Out of respect


    for the dead, I want to buy it and do some refurbishment. If there are descendants who can watch


    over here, that would be the best. Otherwise, I''ll hire someone to take care of it regrly. This


    vige belonged to traditional medicine practitioners, and no one knows if there are precious herbs


    here. If there are, I want to continue to conserve them. I may not need to ask around for help after


    I''ve developed the plot into a medicinal herb cultivation base."


    Nathaniel''s words made Noah stunned for a moment.


    "Have you told Mango regarding it?"


    "Not yet.”


    "Why are you so stupid? You''re doing this for her sake. How would she know if you don''t tell her?"


    Noah was trying to jolt some sense into him.


    However, Nathaniel said with a smile,


    "Confessions are unnecessary between us."


    "Bullsh*t. The most important thing between a married couple is tomunicate with each other


    and understanding each other''s feelings. Not everyone will understand you. Also, don''t think she''s a


    mind reader. There''s no such thing as telling what someone''s thinking with just a look in the other


    person''s eyes. It''s not like you guys have a telepathic connection."


    Noah felt that Nathaniel''s bad temper could not be changed.


    Nathaniel nodded.


    "I''ll talk to herter."


    "That''s right."


    The two of them chatted for a while before Mango walked over.


    "Nathan, are you going to stay here for few more days?"


    "Yeah, what''s the matter?"


    Mango pondered for a moment before saying, "I want to see Novalee. She''s Henry''s sister. She got


    injured because of Walter, and it''s true that she was injured because I sent her over. The doctor


    said that her womb was damaged, so it''s not guaranteed that she''ll recover. Maxton hurried back


    from Santell Capital. I don''t know how she is doing. Though I heard the way she was talking to


    Henry was fine just now, who knows if she''s faking it? I can''t help much at here either, so I wanted


    to go and take a look."


    Noah took a nce at her and said, "You have one more day of acupuncture. You can go after the


    acupuncture is done tomorrow."


    "That''s fine."


    Mango nodded her head.


    Henry decided to stay there to help out. There were no sses for him for a few days since it was a


    holiday.


    Nathaniel brought Mango to the graveyard behind them.


    This was the ce where the people of the vige had been buried for decades.


    Mango asked in confusion, "Why did you bring me here?"


    "Nanny Zhang said that your throat needs a herb to be curedpletely. Otherwise, your voice will


    hurt as soon as you talk and the pain will apany you for the rest of your life."


    Mango paused for a moment before she said with a bitter smile, "It''s already hard enough for me to


    speak once more."


    "Well, I do wish that your voice is not going to be apanied by pain. Nanny Zhang told me that


    there is a type of herb called blue nymph grass which can cure your throat thoroughly. Behind this


    cemetery is the Herb Garden. It was a garden of medicinal herbs cultivated by several generations


    of the Zhang family. Although it has been abandoned for many years, the longer the herbs grow, the


    better its results would be, So I bought this ce not only for the sake of Nanny Zhang, but I hope


    also the Herb Garden will be my own. I still recall the subservient manner in which I dealt with


    Jigsaw to cure you. From now on, I don''t want my family to lose the opportunity for a cure because


    of a shortage of medicinal ingredients. That''s my ultimate purpose."


    Mango was stunned when she heard Nathaniel''s words.


    "I didn''t know, but I wouldn''t be angry even if you did this for Nanny Zhang. After all, she raised you.


    Although I hold a grudge against her, it doesn''t affect my feelings for you. I won''t interfere in your


    filial piety to her either. Don''t take me as a narrowminded person."


    Mango''s words made Nathaniel felt extremely emotional.


    He hugged her tightly and whispered, "I will be good to you for the rest of my life."


    "Is there any other option?"


    "Of course not!"


    Nathaniel quickly replied.


    Mango felt that this moment was a real blessing for her.


    The wind blew the leaves and made a rustling sound while Mango nestled in Nathaniel''s arms.


    Listening to his strong heartbeat, she felt that the world at this moment was simply harmonious and


    quiet.


    Zion left quietly when he came over and saw them this way.


    He couldn''t bear to disturb them.


    When Henry saw Zioning back, he asked, "What''s wrong? Didn''t you find them?"


    "Oh, leave them alone. Let''s go and y together."


    Zion grabbed Henry''s hand and walked out.


    "Huh? What are we going to y?"


    "Humph, don''t look down on me. I''ll y a game with you. If you pass the level, then I''m a loser."


    Zion''s words made Henryugh.


    "How difficult can a child''s game be? Come on, I don''t believe that I can''t beat you."


    Henry was dragged by Zion to sit down under a tree aside.


    Zion passed the mini-game he had designed to


    Henry.


    "Will you be able to get through it in fifteen minutes?"


    "What''s so hard about it? It''s just a mobile game."


    Henry took it over and began to y with confidence. However, as he yed, he frowned deeply.


    He began to think hard in the middle of the game.


    Zion stood by the side with his arms crossed in front of his chest and smiled as he looked at the


    picturesque scenery.


    Fifteen minutester, Henry said with frustration, "This game can''t be won at all."


    "Just admit that you''re stupid, and don''t look for excuses. I''ve no idea how you got into university. If


    it''s so easy to get into it, then I can do it too."

    Zion took the phone from Henry''s hand and quickly started ying.


    His hands moved so fast that Henry was dazzled looking at him.


    With a ''ding'' sound, Zion won the game.


    Henry''s mouth was wide open. He couldn''t believe that it was true.


    "You didn''t use cheats, did you?"


    "Are you kidding me? I never y games with cheats. Are you insulting my intelligence?"


    Zion''s disdainful gaze was a great blow to Henry.


    Mango and Nathaniel didn''t know about Zion''s situation. Both of them paid their respects to the


    people there and then began to search for the blue nymph grass.


    "Do you know what blue nymph grass is? What does it look like? Has Nanny Zhang ever mentioned


    it?"


    "She mentioned something. I have to look for it carefully. Nanny Zhang said that this kind of grass


    grows on the edges of damp graves, so we have to pay attention to it."


    Nathaniel kept walking as he spoke. Every now and then, he would look back and see if Mango was


    catching up with him.


    Even though it was afternoon and the sun was high up in the sky, Mango still felt as if the


    atmosphere was sinister.


    "Nathan, I''m kinda scared."


    Mango touched her arm and felt goose bumps rise on her skin.


    That ce was under the shade of the trees and it did not have much sunlight. Furthermore, graves


    were littered throughout. Mango''s heart was extremely diffident.


    Nathaniel held her hand tightly and said, "Follow me. It''s okay. We''ll go back when we find the blue


    nymph grass."


    "Alright."


    Although Mango said so, she was still a little nervous.


    The two of them walked along the edges of the graves in a line. However, Mango kept feeling like


    there was a gust of cold wind, so she looked back from time to time.


    Perhaps it was a psychological effect, but she always felt that someone was following her. However,


    when she looked back, there was nothing.


    Nathaniel grabbed Mango''s hand and looked around, trying to find the traces of blue nymph grass.


    "Ah I "


    All of a sudden, Mango had missed her footing and fell down.
