Fu Zhan looked at her back and did not take the initiative to come forward. He was waiting for Zhou Nuo's answer.
Zhou Nuo didn't dare to look back at him. She felt that the walls she had built up in her heart were gradually being torn down by Fu Zhan. She needed some time to sort out her mood and couldn't respond to him so quickly.
She replied evasively, "It's getting late, you should go back early."
Fu Zhan put the half-burned cigarette into his mouth again and let her run away again.
Zhou Nuo felt thirsty after returning home. He poured a glass of water and drank it in big gulps. His heartbeat never calmed down because of Fu Zhan's words "I love you."
Fu Zhan received a call from his assistant Shen Liang. Guan Xiyue's cry came from the other end of the phone. He immediately reacted and drove directly to the hospital.
Guan Yan was still in the operating room when he arrived. Guan Yan's liver cancer was already in the advanced stage when he was diagnosed. He still managed to survive for almost half a year. Every time he fell ill, the disease only brought him pain.
Guan Xiyue sat on the chair and couldn't cry anymore. She thought that maybe she had done too many wrong things and was taking revenge on her father.
After a long time, the lights during the operation were turned off, and the doctors pushed Guan Yan out, but his head was covered with a layer of white cloth. The doctor's face was full of regret, and he said to the patient's family, "Please forgive me."
.”
Guan Xiyue slumped to the ground and opened the white cloth that covered Guan Yan's face. There was no pain on his face, only a kind of tranquility after relief. It was too late to regret anything now.
Fu Zhan clenched his hands tightly into fists, and had nowhere to vent, so he could only punch the white wall. Guan Xiyue fainted due to excessive sadness, and was helped up by the doctors and sent to the ward.
She dreamed of Guan Yan in her dream, and he told her, "Xiyue, don't be sad, dad has gone somewhere else." Guan Xiyue woke up from her dream and saw Fu Zhan standing by the window with his back to her, and the sky was dark.
It's not very bright yet.
Fu Zhan's voice was very low, "Take care of your father's affairs. If there is anything you can't handle, come to me at any time."
Guan Xiyue didn't want to admit the fact that Guan Yan passed away, but Fu Zhan's words reminded her that it's time for you to face everything.
Guan Yan left her shares in the group, fearing that she would be bullied. Fu Zhan hesitated and relayed Guan Yan's words to her, "Uncle Guan wants you to marry Chen Maoxuan. As a rising star in the Chen family, he has received help from his uncle."
, their son is also a talented person, Chen Maoxuan has a good impression of you, you will not suffer any injustice if you marry him."
She knew that Chen Maoxuan was always polite, and Guan Xiyue didn't know who else she could like besides Fu Zhan. Maybe marrying someone else would slowly end her unwanted feelings for him.
Guan Xiyue smiled bitterly, "I'm embarrassing my dad. Since he has arranged everything for me, I'll get married."
After Fu Zhan was about to leave, Guan Xiyue stopped him and said sincerely, "I'm really sorry for ruining the relationship between you and Zhou Nuo."
Fu Zhan understood that she could only be regarded as the trigger. What Zhou Nuo really cared about was that he had never told her the truth.
Fu Zhan paused and said, "Cheer up early."
Fu Zhan didn't sleep all night. He drove to Zhou Nuo's house and rang the doorbell for a long time. Zhou Nuo looked at the time and saw that it was not yet six o'clock in the morning. He was annoyed about who disturbed his dream so early in the morning.
, Fu Zhan hugged him as soon as he opened the door.
Zhou Nuo was stunned by the hug. Gan Qinger came here this morning just to hug her!
She tried hard to push him away, but Fu Zhan's voice was tired, "Nu Nuo, let me hold you for a while."
Zhou Nuo smelled disinfectant from his body and felt a wet spot on his shoulder. Fu Zhan cried?!
Zhou Nuo no longer struggled and let him hold him, with countless conjectures in his mind. Is he bankrupt? Is there something wrong with his law firm?…
Li Zixuan was asleep and remembered to drink a glass of water. When she saw the two people hugging each other at the door, she rubbed her eyes in disbelief and persuaded herself, "I must not have woken up. Why did I see Fu Zhan and Zhou Nuo hugging each other?"
Already?"
She went back to the house and lay on the bed. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong. It was either a fantasy or a real person.
Li Zixuan was about to take out the badminton racket placed in the room and rush out, but then she thought that Zhou Nuo didn't push him away. Could it be that the two of them had reconciled again?
After thinking about it, she lay down on the pillow again, not wanting to miss the good news between the two of them.
Zhou Nuo was choked by him and couldn't breathe. She pushed him gently. She looked at Li Zixuan's door with a guilty conscience. Fortunately, she didn't wake up.
The door of her room moved. Worried that she would not be able to explain it later, Zhou Nuo pulled Fu Zhan directly to her room and gently closed the door.
Zhou Nuo's bedroom was neither big nor small, and there were her personal belongings on the bed. She hurriedly stuffed them into the quilt. Fu Zhan consciously closed his eyes at this time and sat on her chair.
Zhou Nuo felt a little regretful. She and Fu Zhan didn't do anything shameful, so what were they hiding from?!
She asked Fu Zhan, "What's wrong with you?" After Zhou Nuo asked, Fu Zhan was silent for a while. She wanted to withdraw but it was too late. She was still disappointed after saying too much. He still kept everything to himself and refused to tell her.
Fu Zhan said, "An uncle who had helped me passed away. He had advanced liver cancer, and rescue efforts failed. He completely left this world last night." He still did not tell the whole story, fearing that Zhou Nuo would be worried when he knew the whole thing and hid it.
part.
Zhou Nuo knew that Fu Zhan was a person who valued affection and righteousness. Thinking about how sad he was, he must have suppressed his emotions for a long time before expressing them.
She didn't know how to comfort him, so she gently patted his shoulders twice.
Zhou Nuo heard Li Zixuan's room door open, and she whispered to Fu Zhan, "Don't come out without my notice!"
Li Zixuan saw that Zhou Nuo had also come out, and felt that something was wrong. She asked, "I just saw you and Fu Zhan hugging each other at the door."
Zhou Nuo blushed and retorted, "You must have been asleep, why is Fu Zhan here? Besides, where is Fu Zhan!"
Fu Zhan, who was in the room at this time, said in his heart: I am here.
Li Zixuan felt guilty after being told by Zhou Nuo's righteous voice. Maybe she had seen it wrong. When she passed by the door, she saw a pair of shoes at the door. The shoe size was very large. It looked like they were worn by men!
She pointed to the shoes on the ground, "Fu Zhan didn't come, so where did these shoes come from!"
Zhou Nuo was hesitating and speechless. Li Zixuan's curiosity reached its peak. She just wanted to see where Zhou Nuo could hide a person as big as Fu Zhan.
Bathroom…no.
Kitchen…no.
Living room…no.
She looked towards Zhou Nuo's bedroom, and sure enough, Zhou Nuo's expression changed. As soon as she opened the door, Fu Zhan was sitting calmly on the armchair.
Zhou Nuo coughed twice to cover up, "We... nothing happened..."
Li Zixuan chuckled, "Okay, Zhou Nuo, there's a man hiding in the house!"
Fu Zhan: "Actually, my dream is to be hidden by my daughter-in-law in the golden house!"
