The car behind her kept honking at her. Gu Ruochu turned around and saw that Jin Ye had one hand on the car window.
His eyes were beautifully shaped.
"Get in."
Gu Ruochu glanced at him as she opened the car door and sat behind him without saying a word. Su Ze saw that Gu Ruochu was not courteous enough to acknowledge him, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
"Why are you here? You didn't even realize that you had reached the traffic lights?" Jin Ye frowned. His originally lazy expression was now filled with anger.
"I wasn't careful."
"All right, you win." Jin Ye glanced at Su Ze. "Drive, let's head directly to the launching ceremony."
"Alright."
Gu Ruochu was not in the mood to talk. Jin Ye could tell that she had something on her mind, but he did not take the initiative to speak. The car fell into silence.
Su Ze looked at Gu Ruochu through the rearview mirror and could not help but ask, "I heard that Miss Gu is not from the city. I'm a little curious as to where you're from. I wonder if you could tell me?"
Gu Ruochu felt a little resistant when she heard the question.
She had not inherited any memories from the original Gu Ruochu. If he were to really interrogate her, she would not know anything either.
"I had a car accident and I can't recall anything about my past."
"A car accident?" Su Ze seemed surprised as he remembered that he had seen the news about her accident in an entertainment blog. However, he had not paid much attention to it.
"Have you forgotten about the past?" Jin Ye finally spoke. There was a hint of emotion in his eyes.
Was it a coincidence? How could she have gotten into a car accident and forgotten about her past?
Gu Ruochu noticed their reactions and her heart grew wary. She did not say another word.
The car fell into silence once again.
"..."
HUO NANCHEN'S OFFICE:
Huo Nanchen sat up from the sofa. He stood tall and straight. The indifference in his eyes made it impossible for anyone to get close to him.
The door was pushed open with a bang. One did not need to turn around to know who it was.
Lu Fang looked at Huo Nanchen and pushed his spectacles up against his nose. "Have you taken your medicine, President Huo?"
Huo Nanchen looked back at him. He took out the medicine container and swallowed two pills before throwing it back into the cabinet.
He sat down again and closed his eyes.
"Looks like the one at home coaxed you well. Why do you seem so happy today?" Lu Fang teased. "Then take good care of your little wife. If she runs away one day, it won't be worth it."
"Your wife ran away?"
Lu Fang was deeply hurt by this sentence. His expression became slightly ferocious.
'I won't argue with him!'
"Nanchen, Cheng Xi just called me to ask when you're going to have a video call with him. He hasn't seen his father in a long time."
Lu Fang emphasized the word "father."
Huo Nanchen thought for a moment and returned to his desk. He had not seen that child in a long time.
"Does Gu Ruochu know about this child's existence?" Lu Fang asked tentatively.
"I don't know, there's no need for that."
It had only been a short while since they last saw each other, but she was still on Huo Nanchen's mind.
It was as if all his fatigue had been swept away.
"Indeed, there's no need for that, but I think it's best if you discuss it with her. Perhaps in your heart, you may not think that this is a big deal, but in a woman's heart, she may not feel that way," Lu Fang reminded him.
