"Do you know the specifics of Sister Ruirui?" Cheng Nuo became more and more curious.
Aunt Lan shook her head, "I don't know. After the eldest lady's incident happened, the news was blocked in just one day. All the people related to that incident and those who knew about it disappeared in this city.
Already."
"You mean, only the He family knows now?" Cheng Nuo stared into Aunt Lan's eyes.
Aunt Lan nodded, "Yes, but sir and the old man, they probably won't mention it. In my opinion, that incident changed the entire He family back then, and it was a big blow to each of them, especially the old lady.
, she has been tortured by illness for so many years, and those who know the truth are naturally unwilling to mention it."
Cheng Nuo understood and knew clearly in his heart that after meeting Bai Wanjing and spending a short time with her, he knew that her life had not been good all along. Moreover, He Zikai did not tell him too much. Obviously, that was the pain in his heart.
No one is willing to open the scars and endure the pain.
The living room suddenly became quiet, Cheng Nuo didn't ask any more questions, and Aunt Lan didn't say anything more either.
"Madam, if your husband doesn't want you to know too much, then you don't want to know. Some things are better not to know than to know," Aunt Lan advised.
"Yeah." Cheng Nuo understood that since it was a sad matter for He Zikai and the He family, he didn't want to get to the bottom of it, "Go and do your work."
"Okay." Aunt Lan nodded and walked to the door.
…
In the evening, Cheng Nuo waited until after eight o'clock before He Zikai came home.
Cheng Nuo noticed that something was obviously wrong with He Zikai's mood. He looked very distressed.
"What's wrong? Did something happen?" Cheng Nuo asked with concern. The two of them lived together, and she couldn't be indifferent to his emotional changes.
He Zikai didn't answer. He looked at Cheng Nuo intently for a long time before saying, "It's okay."
After saying that, without waiting for Cheng Nuo's reaction, he hugged her tightly into his arms.
Cheng Nuo stayed in his arms blankly, feeling that the strength in his hands was much tighter than when he usually held her. He didn't know what happened, but he always felt that this was something unusual for him.
After dinner, the two returned to the bedroom. Cheng Nuo put the bath water for He Zikai and asked He Zikai to wash first.
Perhaps He Zikai was really tired. Tonight, He Zikai did not pull Cheng Nuo to take a bath with him overbearingly, but went into the bathroom alone.
After both of them took a shower, they lay on the bed. Cheng Nuo stayed in He Zikai's arms as usual, and was held by him. This action seemed to have become a habit for the two of them.
He held her as if he owned the whole world.
She snuggled into that safe and warm embrace, as if she had a protector, feeling very comfortable and at ease.
"Nuo'er..." He Zikai suddenly called out, his voice a little low.
"Yeah." Cheng Nuo responded without asking any more questions, waiting for him to continue.
The dim warm light wall lamp illuminates the whole room, making the atmosphere very warm.
"I'm going on a business trip next Tuesday." He Zikai said.
This decision was made after Liu Ziying called herself, and she had the idea of leaving Sihanoukville for a few days. However, when she went out in the afternoon, the things she did did not achieve the results she expected, so she decided to make the decision in person.
Go there and deal with it.
As a girl in a foreign country, she could turn to herself when encountering difficulties, but she could not stand aside.
But he didn’t want to tell the woman in his arms the truth, so he could only do it in the name of a business trip...
"..." Cheng Nuo's mind was short-circuited for a few seconds. Since marrying him, he has never been on a business trip or left this home.
After a long time, Cheng Nuo found his voice and asked, "How many days will we go?"
"Not sure." He Zikai didn't know the specific situation on Liu Ziying's side, so he thought about it in his mind and continued, "About a week, but I will come back as soon as possible after I finish handling the matter."
"Yeah." Cheng Nuo responded.
As the president of the He Yi Empire, it is normal for this man to go on a business trip, and he should understand it in his heart.
However, why do I feel an indescribable discomfort in my heart when I know that we are going to be separated for a short period of time.
That kind of discomfort, as if... reluctant to leave.
He Zikai hugged her tightly and kissed her on the top of her hair, then said good night to her and hugged her to sleep.
…
In the next two days, Cheng Nuo cherished the time he spent with He Zikai. At night, knowing that this man couldn't help but move around on her body, she let him go, as long as he didn't touch there.
He Zikai felt too much reluctance in his heart. When he thought that he would not be able to see this woman for several days, he felt inexplicably irritable, but he had to go to Yingzi's side.
The night before leaving, He Zikai finally couldn't bear it anymore and simply let this woman "serve" him.
Cheng Nuo didn't know how, and listened to He Zikai's guidance and clumsily "served" his younger brother.
For the whole night, He Zikai's face was dark. This woman was not "serving" at all, she was just biting.
Enduring the pain and not wanting her to leave, He Zikai felt that he was asking for trouble.
…
The next day, when Cheng Nuo was woken up by the alarm clock, he was no longer around.
Suddenly, my heart felt empty.
Cheng Nuo got up, washed up, changed clothes and put on light makeup, then went downstairs to have breakfast.
"Madam, breakfast is ready." Aunt Lan said respectfully.
Cheng Nuo looked over and saw that there was only one breakfast on the table, and suddenly there was an inexplicable longing in his mind, missing the good mood he had when he saw two breakfasts on the table.
It turns out that some things and some habits have been buried in my heart. These have nothing to do with love, they are just habits.
After Cheng Nuo had breakfast, he said hello to Aunt Lan and drove to work.
When he came to the company, Cheng Nuo devoted himself to busy work as usual. In the afternoon, he received an arrangement from the company and Cheng Nuo and a colleague went to the cooperative company to discuss project planning matters.
However, Cheng Nuo did not expect that another colleague assigned by the company was actually Xue Shaoqing.
"Cheng Nuo, come with me in my car. We'll be back in two hours. We'll discuss the plan on the way." Xue Shaoqing stood in the elevator and proactively said to Cheng Nuo beside him.
Since the last time I met Cheng Nuo in the parking lot, I only exchanged simple greetings with Cheng Nuo and never had a chance to chat. Today, I was unexpectedly arranged by the company to go out to work together. This is a happy thing for me.
Cheng Nuo thought about it, it wasn't far to go to the cooperative company, and he could also take Xue Shaoqing's car. By the way, he could refine the plan with him.
"Yeah." Cheng Nuo nodded.
…
Xue Shaoqing drove the car and only talked about work with Cheng Nuo along the way. Several times, Xue Shaoqing wanted to ask Cheng Nuo about her relationship, but was afraid that it would affect her mood. The words got stuck in her throat, and she finally did not ask.
