"All right. I'll get my assistant to book the plane tickets now. We'll secretly follow father back."
Ning Zongxuan left the hospital to make a call to his assistant.
Ning Tang had already booked his flight and was on his way back to Nan Cheng.
However, he did not know that his children follow him back to the country right after he left.
"..."
Ever since Gu Ruochu had logged into the WeChat account, she had not slept at all.
Gu Ruochu lay on the bed and thought about the account as Huo Nanchen hugged her tightly. She raised her head and looked at his handsome and calm sleeping face.
Her relationship with Huo Nanchen had never been better. Gu Ruochu was even considering having a child with him and living a normal and happy life.
However, several questions about the old Gu Ruochu's life were still a mystery. A strange uneasiness lingered in Gu Ruochu's heart.
'Why don't you use the money in your account? Are you still angry with me? The car accident was just an act. Did you really think that it was real?'
Gu Ruochu could not understand the meaning behind the text messages.
Had the car accident been staged?
Why would the old Gu Ruochu trust a person who would put her in danger?
Gu Ruochu could not understand the nature of the relationship between contact N and her previous host.
No matter how she thought about it, it was useless. After racking her brain thinking about it, she fell into a daze and finally fell asleep.
When she woke up the next day, Huo Nanchen had already left for work.
Huo Nanchen's Golden Retriever wagged its tail when Gu Ruochu woke up. Its blinking eyes made her feel at ease.
The dog wagged its tail even happily when it saw Gu Ruochu sit up.
"Young Madam, you're awake?"
Nanny Zhang was surprised to see Gu Ruochu coming down the stairs. She quickly instructed one of the servants to go into the kitchen and prepare some breakfast for Gu Ruochu. "You've lost some weight recently. Before he went to work, the Eldest Young Master instructed me to make sure you finish your breakfast and rest before you go out."
Gu Ruochu nodded in agreement.
Her cell phone suddenly rang, and Yang Xi's happy voice rang in her ears.
"Ruochu, I'm almost at your door."
"All right. I'll come out to welcome you." Gu Ruochu's lips curled into a smile, and her mood gradually improved.
"..."
When Ning Tang arrived at the Ning residence, Zhang Yuan glanced at him coldly and asked, "Why are you back?"
"Are you feeling unwell? I'll take you to the hospital."
Ning Tang walked over and held Zhang Yuan's hand worriedly. He knew that Zhang Yuan had suffered from dystocia after her third pregnancy, and unfortunately, the child had died as soon as it was born.
At the time, Ning Tang was stranded overseas.
When he managed to get back into the country, the doctors had informed him about Zhang Yuan's illness and her stillborn baby.
After receiving the news, Ning Tang had vowed not to impregnate his wife again. After all, he already had two beautiful children.
Zhang Yuan looked at Ning Tang's concerned face and pulled her hand away. "I'm fine. But it's good that you're back. I have something to discuss with you."
Ning Tang was slightly stunned and asked gently, "What is it? Tell me, and I'll listen."
"Ning Tang, you have to sit down first."
Ning Tang sat on the sofa. Over the last few days, Zhang Yuan had tried to think of a way to break the news about Gu Ruochu to Ning Tang.
She did not want to hurt his feelings, so she decided to hide some facts from him.
"You know that our daughter died prematurely," Zhang Yuan adjusted her tone to avoid provoking him. "However, I just found out that our daughter is alive."
"What did you say? Our daughter didn't die?" Ning Tang repeated in disbelief. "Really? Where's our daughter now?"
