"Yes." He Zikai responded, feeling a little relieved. He wanted to ask her what happened at the mansion in the afternoon, but in the end he didn't ask, fearing that her newly recovered mood would be affected again.
"Let's go downstairs to eat. I'm a little hungry." Cheng Nuo said lightly. After saying that, he had "escaped" from He Zikai's arms and turned around to look at He Zikai.
He Zikai nodded, took Cheng Nuo's hand, and walked towards the door.
…
After dinner, Cheng Nuo and He Zikai sat in the living room and watched TV as usual. He Zikai held her tightly in his arms and watched idol dramas with her.
Cheng Nuo watched the idol dramas he usually liked, but today he couldn't bring himself to watch them at all, and his mind was not on the idol dramas at all.
"Akai." Cheng Nuo couldn't hold it back and called out "Akai."
"Well, what's wrong?" He Zikai frowned slightly, lowered his head and looked at the woman in his arms, worried that she was uncomfortable in some way.
"I want to ask Xiaoqi to go shopping tomorrow." Cheng Nuo said that he had a lot of things on his mind, and the only person who could tell them was An Xiaoqi.
"Well, you can go if you want." He Zikai agreed. It was a normal thing for women to go shopping and he would not stop it.
"Then I'll call Xiaoqi now." After Cheng Nuo finished speaking, he picked up the phone and called An Xiaoqi.
After deciding on a time for shopping tomorrow, Cheng Nuo hung up the phone and sat with He Zikai in the living room for a while before they went upstairs to rest.
After taking a shower, He Zikai lay on the bed with Cheng Nuo in his arms.
"Ah Kai, I'm very tired, would you like to sleep?" Cheng Nuo was worried that this man would become more and more presumptuous.
"Yeah." He Zikai responded.
After pressing a kiss on Cheng Nuo's forehead, He Zikai hugged Cheng Nuo tightly again and fell asleep.
…
At the beginning of a new day, He Zikai and Cheng Nuo got up. They had some simple breakfast, and Cheng Nuo went shopping with An Xiaoqi.
And He Zikai also drove back to the mansion. It was impossible for his mother to leave in a hurry yesterday without worrying, so he went back to take a look today.
An hour later, Cheng Nuo met An Xiaoqi at the entrance of the International Shopping Mall.
"Nono." An Xiaoqi hugged Cheng Nuo happily.
"Xiaoqi." Cheng Nuo responded, his voice a little weak.
An Xiaoqi noticed Cheng Nuo's mood. She was very different from her usual self today.
"What's wrong? Nono." An Xiaoqi asked doubtfully.
Cheng Nuo looked at An Xiaoqi blankly, suddenly feeling the urge to cry.
This good best friend knew all about the love she had had with He Tianyu for a long time. Now standing in front of her, she wanted to be weak and rest on her shoulder for a while. Her heart was too tired.
Seeing that Cheng Nuo didn't answer her for a long time, An Xiaoqi was sure that something was wrong with her.
"Nono, if something happens, tell me, let's share it together, okay?" An Xiaoqi said very gently. She knows this girl's temperament very well. She buries everything in her heart and bears it alone. She is like this
, make yourself feel distressed.
Cheng Nuo took a deep breath, adjusted his mood, and forced a smile, "Let's sit down and chat in a coffee shop."
"Well..." An Xiaoqi nodded, then took Cheng Nuo's arm and entered the leisure area of the mall.
…
In the He family mansion, when He Zikai came to the second floor and stood at the door of the master bedroom, he saw the old man sitting by the bed, accompanying his mother.
At this moment, He Zikai missed Cheng Nuo extremely much. The deep affection of his elders made him want to protect Cheng Nuo all the more.
He Peixu noticed his son at the door and nodded to let him in.
He Zikai stepped in and walked in.
"How is my mother?" He Zikai stood beside the bed and looked at the sleeping woman on the bed.
She was so thin that it made her uncomfortable to look at her. In my memory, the mother I saw when I was a child was as beautiful as a fairy.
And my sister is as beautiful as my mother. Her smile and frown are still clear in my mind.
"I woke up last night and my mood has stabilized." He Peixu said, still looking at the person on the bed affectionately. "The several wounds on the body that were punctured by glass are not serious. The doctor said that they will be fine in a few days.
"
He Zikai said nothing.
He Peixu thought of something and turned his attention to his son, "Is Cheng Nuo okay? Were you scared yesterday?"
He Peixu felt a little guilty. Wanjing's mood had been unstable. She shouldn't have let Cheng Nuo accompany Wanjing alone yesterday. She probably scared Cheng Nuo's child, so she ran out in a panic.
"Well, I'm feeling better today." He Zikai said. After getting up in the morning, he saw that she was the same as usual, but rarely spoke. He was somewhat relieved and hoped that she would be in a better mood when she came back from shopping with An Xiaoqi today.
He Peixu nodded and told his son, "From now on, you two should go home and stay with your mother."
How dare something happen once again, so this will serve as a reminder to my son.
"Well..." He Zikai responded.
He Peixu looked at the woman on the bed and vaguely heard her even breathing. It was true that she was asleep, so he covered her with the quilt and then got up.
"Let's go to the study. I have something to tell you." After He Peixu finished speaking, he walked towards the door.
He Zikai glanced at his mother on the bed, and then followed the old man's footsteps out of the bedroom.
In the study, father and son sat face to face at the desk.
"That matter, have you been investigating?" He Peixu asked his son, his tone more serious than in the bedroom just now.
"Yeah." It was a simple word, and there was determination in He Zikai's deep eyes.
I have to get to the bottom of that matter.
"Stop it, stop checking." He Peixu's tone was pleading.
He knew his son's government and methods. With the power entrusted to him over the years, coupled with the contacts and team he had accumulated, he was now even more powerful than he could estimate. If he wanted to investigate what happened back then, he would have to rely on his
Wisdom and ability can definitely be found.
It's just that I'm worried that something unexpected will happen after I find out...
"You know, this is impossible." He Zikai's eyes gradually became colder, and his words became more aura.
Back then, when I was abroad, I heard the bad news. At that time, I was powerless. Now that I have power in my hands, how can I stop it so easily?
"Zi Kai..." He Peixu lowered his voice and shouted, his expression full of helplessness, "The He family has been peaceful for many years, let this peace continue."
He Zikai said nothing.
Seeing that his son had no intention of speaking, He Peixu continued, "I owe your mother so much, and your sister. Now that I am old, all I can do is stay with your mother every day to make her life easier.
And you are married now, Cheng Nuo's child is very good, you two live a good life, and our family is happy, how good it is." (To be continued)
