All the young masters from the prestigious families in Nan Cheng hoped that after Gu Ruochu divorced Huo Nanchen, they would have a romantic relationship with her. She was beautiful, and many young men lusted after her.
The young ladies in the high-class circles also felt that they would have a shot at Huo Nanchen after he finalized the divorce.
Ning Tang received the news that Huo Nanchen had visited Gu Ruochu's apartment. He had a good impression of Huo Nanchen.
It was a pity that there were too many barriers between Gu Ruochu and her husband. Rather than hurting each other, it would be better if they separated.
Fate could not allow them to be together. Furthermore, Gu Ruochu's position in Huo Nanchen's heart was not clear.
"Chairman?" A man dressed in a sharp suit walked in and interrupted Ning Tang's deep thoughts. He then whispered into Ning Tang's ear. After listening for a while, Ning Tang nodded, "You should take care of the company's matters. I'll go and pick up Gu Ruochu."
"Okay."
Lu Fang and Lan Nuo had stayed at the hospital to look after Huo Nanchen.
They feared that if he were to go crazy and run out to look for Gu Ruochu, Li Tezhu would not know what to do. He would not dare to stop his boss.
"Nanchen!"
Lu Fang frowned as he entered the ward. Huo Nanchen had woken up, and his hand was moving around with the infusion.
His other hand was propped on the edge of the bed as if he had remembered something.
"Huo Nanchen, what are you doing? You should lie down. Are you trying to open up your wound again?"
"Where's Ruochu? I'm going to look for her!"
When he heard Huo Nanchen's drowsy words, Li Tezhu was glad that Lan Nuo and Lu Fang were present.
"What are you looking for!" Lu Fang's brows twitched, and he sneered, "If you want her to be a widow, go ahead and look for her. I don't care about you!"
Huo Nanchen regained his senses and lay on the bed. However, his deep eyes had an empty look.
His argument with Gu Ruochu had tortured him.
Huo Nanchen did not look invincible anymore.
After recovering from his injuries, Huo Nanchen had planned to lure Yue Cheng out by using Ning Tangxi as bait. However, after hearing that Gu Ruochu had filed for divorce, he had left the hospital without worrying about his health. His wounds had opened up, and it would take some time before they healed.
"Let's get out and let Nanchen have a good rest."
Lu Fang glanced at Lan Nuo, and they walked out of the ward.
The ward fell silent. Huo Nanchen quietly contemplated his options.
He had to recover from his injuries immediately so that he would persuade Gu Ruochu to stay. He did not have much time.
Otherwise, Gu Ruochu would only grow more disgusted with him.
An Shaosi visited the hospital and brought some food for his friends. However, he did not enter Huo Nanchen's ward. Lu Fang and Lan Nuo approached him, and the three of them stood in the corridor outside the ward and looked at each other in dismay.
"Is there any news about Yue Cheng?" An Shaosi asked. Lan Nuo shook her head.
"Not yet. I'm waiting."
Lu Fang sighed when he thought about everything that had happened before glancing at his phone anxiously.
It had been more than a week since Huo Nanchen and Ning Tangxi had gotten into an accident, but there was no movement from Yue Cheng.
In the past, Yue Cheng had treated Ning Tangxi as if she was his life. If he was still alive, why had he not made an effort to see his woman?
Moreover, Yue Cheng had also put himself at risk to save Huo Nanchen when they were young. Why had he not come to the hospital to enquire about Huo Nanchen's health?
After waiting for such a long time, Lu Fang thought that Huo Nanchen had made the wrong judgment.
Back then, they had watched Yue Cheng get washed away by the river. If he was still alive after so many years, why was he hiding?
Lu Fang suspected that they had made a mistake.
