In the hospital room.
"An Nuan, don't go. I'm scared." Xia Qiqi grabbed her shirt hem.
"I won't go, I'll stay with you, go to sleep." An Nuan said softly.
"Mm."
Only then did Xia Qiqi slowly close her eyes and fall asleep.
An Nuan kept accompanying Xia Qiqi by her side.
Who knows if Xia Qiqi was really tired after tossing and turning all night.
Soon, her steady breathing could be heard.
An Nuan softly called Xia Qiqi.
Xia Qiqi did not respond.
Only then did An Nuan get up and leave the ward.
Hu Feng followed behind An Nuan. An Nuan did not leave the hospital directly, but went to the information desk to ask about Nie Ziming's ward number.
Through the ward number, she found the doctor in charge of Nie Ziming.
"Hello, I'm Nie Ziming's friend. I'd like to ask how he is doing with his injuries?" An Nuan asked directly.
The doctor glanced at An Nuan, brought up the medical records on the computer, and said, "Car accident, all external injuries. The most serious injury is his right leg where glass pierced deeply and needed 8 stitches. Also his chest needed 4 stitches. Left wrist had a minor fracture. Other places were just bruises from the impact."
"Okay, thank you doctor." An Nuan said gratefully.
The doctor nodded slightly.
Not very enthusiastic either.
After all it was late, and the doctor needed rest too.
An Nuan left directly with Hu Feng.
So.
Nie Ziming's car accident was real.
If it really was just a coincidence, then there's nothing more to say. But if it wasn't a coincidence...
This Nie Ziming really is not simple.
To achieve his goals...he is capable of anything.
Even Gu Yansheng wouldn't intentionally harm his own body.
But Nie Ziming exceeded her imagination.
She sat in Hu Feng's sedan and called Xiao Nanchen.
It didn't get picked up for a long time.
An Nuan thought about it and told Hu Feng to drive directly to Xiao Nanchen's apartment.
She felt that some things needed to be clarified face-to-face with Xiao Nanchen.
As for his final choice,
She would respect it.
...
At the hospital.
Nie Ziming lay in his hospital bed, still feeling a bit uncomfortable from his injuries after all.
He stared at the ceiling alone, spaced out.
His eyes twitched.
He saw Gu Yanxuan walking into the ward.
His complexion changed instantly, "What are you doing here?!"
"What, guilty conscience?" Gu Yanxuan taunted.
"Shut up."
"What right do you have to tell me to shut up. Nie Ziming, you better be clear about your own status. You're just a dog trying to rely on our family!" Gu Yanxuan said viciously.
Nie Ziming looked coldly at Gu Yanxuan, his face extremely dark.
"You can't scare me like this either." Gu Yanxuan was indifferent. "I don't take you seriously at all."
"What are you here for!" Nie Ziming asked through gritted teeth.
"I'm here to congratulate you! You finally made Xia Qiqi miscarry. In the future you won't have to face your beloved still pregnant with someone else's child!" Gu Yanxuan mocked.
"Isn't this all planned by you!" Nie Ziming said plainly.
"It was planned by me, but I didn't expect you would make it so realistic, actually getting into a car accident. I thought you were just pretending." Gu Yanxuan moved closer to Nie Ziming, "Badly injured?"
"If it wasn't done to this extent, do you really think it could be concealed?! Xia Qiqi miscarried because of me. Do you think no one will investigate?!"
"Investigate?! What can be investigated?! The things my brother does are always seamless. Nothing will be found investigating." Gu Yanxuan was proudly complacent. "Even the surgeon was bribed thoroughly. No one will find anything."
"You underestimate An Nuan too much." Nie Ziming said directly. "Xia Qiqi may not find anything, but An Nuan can." Don't forget, what kind of situation has your brother been driven to by An Nuan this whole time!"
"Enough!" The two women Gu Yanxuan hated most in her life.
One was Xia Qiqi, for stealing her man.
The other was An Nuan.
This woman An Nuan was too sharp. She was jealous.
Crazily jealous.
When Nie Ziming spoke of An Nuan's capabilities at this moment, it made her incomparably unhappy.
"We'll make An Nuan suffer miserably sooner or later. You just focus on your own duty!" Gu Yanxuan said viciously. "My brother told me to pass you this message. Do everything you can to acquire Xia Bank. Whatever help you need from him, just say it!"
"Got it." Nie Ziming responded.
"Nie Ziming, for someone of your background to gain my brother's favor, you really struck gold. You'd better treasure it." Gu Yanxuan had an arrogant expression.
"No need for you to remind me."
"Hm." Gu Yanxuan snorted coldly.
It showed her disdain for Nie Ziming.
If Nie Ziming wasn't really useful,
she would have killed this man already.
Gu Yanxuan left Nie Ziming's ward.
Nie Ziming's expression was still extremely ugly.
One was Gu Yanxuan's contempt and mockery toward him.
The other was that he had to admit, making Xia Qiqi miscarry would still give him some guilt.
He always believed he wouldn't fall for Xia Qiqi...
His eyes tightened fiercely.
Loving Xia Qiqi was not in conflict with acquiring Xia Bank!
...
An Nuan arrived at Xiao Nanchen's apartment.
She pressed the doorbell.
The instant the door opened, Xiao Nanchen's unhappy voice sounded, "Mom, I already said you don't need to come...." His voice changed suddenly. "An Nuan?"
"It's me." An Nuan smiled faintly.
"Did Auntie come earlier?"
Xiao Nanchen nodded, "She called saying she wanted to come and I refused. I thought she still ended up coming, but it turned out to be you."
"Is it okay if I come in?"
"Come in then." Xiao Nanchen opened the door.
An Nuan had Hu Feng wait outside for her.
She followed Xiao Nanchen in.
As soon as she walked in, An Nuan caught the smell of disinfectant.
Her eyes shifted slightly and saw a first aid kit on the coffee table, then Xiao Nanchen's bloody hand behind his back.
Xiao Nanchen also noticed An Nuan's gaze and hid his hand behind him.
Of course An Nuan wouldn't call him out on it.
A man like Xiao Nanchen, whenever he felt unhappy, would only vent by himself.
Never letting anyone else know.
He said, "Have a seat."
An Nuan sat on the sofa.
"Nanchen, I know about Qiqi's miscarriage," An Nuan said.
"Hm." Xiao Nanchen gave a light hum as response while sitting in his wheelchair.
"I know this will become an obstacle between you and Qiqi. I don't think Qiqi did the right thing either. She should take full responsibility for the miscarriage. So I'm not here to persuade you to make up either."
"Just get to the point." Xiao Nanchen gave a faint smile too.
He would never make things difficult for anyone.
An Nuan took a deep breath and said, "Nanchen, do you believe me if I said I reincarnated back here?"
Xiao Nanchen was startled, clearly not believing her.
