Gu Yan Sheng arrived at Ye Jinghuai's villa as quickly as possible.
An Nuan got out of the car.
Gu Yan Sheng left a sentence directed at An Nuan's back, "An Nuan, by now you should be well aware of who the rightful one is!"
An Nuan bit her lip tightly.
"You are so smart, you should know how to do things to avoid suffering!"
With that, Gu Yan Sheng left.
He left with arrogance.
An Nuan's eyes narrowed repeatedly.
No matter what she did, she couldn't avoid suffering.
Gu Yan Sheng was just trying to satisfy his desires, he wanted to conquer everyone, he wanted to make everyone submit to him, he wanted to enjoy the pleasure of dominating others.
Once he loses that feeling of conquest!
Those so-called subservient people.
They will, damn it, they will be killed!
An Nuan suppressed her immense anger and walked into the villa's hall.
It was already 11 o'clock at night.
Qin Jiang and Xiao Nanchen were still waiting for her at home.
When they saw her return, the two hurried forward. But upon seeing An Nuan's attire, they quickly turned away, avoiding her gaze.
"I'll go upstairs to change into some clothes."
The two men facing away from her both responded.
An Nuan went upstairs and entered the room.
Her body had turned icy cold.
Even being back in this warm home, she still felt chilled.
Her whole body was cold.
Her heart was cold too.
The tears she had been holding back finally poured out.
She crouched down in the corner of the bedroom, hugging her knees, and broke down sobbing.
In front of Ye Jinghuai, she had been holding it in.
Although the tears wouldn't stop, she had not actually let her emotions out.
In front of Gu Yan Sheng, it was even less possible.
But thinking about Ye Jinghuai's condition in prison...
Thinking about how Ye Jinghuai would rather die than let Gu Yan Sheng take liberties with her, even knowing Gu Yan Sheng had limits, he still wouldn't let go.
How much did Ye Jinghuai love her?!
From what time did Ye Jinghuai fall in love with her?!
Why repeatedly,
could he use his life to save her.
She cried for a long time.
Letting out all the grievances she had suffered today.
Not for herself.
But only because of Ye Jinghuai.
Only because of this Ye Jinghuai who loved her!
An Nuan cried until the heavens and earth seemed to shatter.
She really wanted
to pour out all her emotions through tears.
But she knew, she couldn't!
Without getting Ye Jinghuai out, she would never give up, not even if she died!
She stood up from the ground.
Her legs were so weak that she fell back down.
But she stood up again.
She went into the bathroom and took a hot shower.
After the shower, she changed into thick clothes.
She went downstairs.
Making herself appear unaffected.
In the hall downstairs,
Qin Jiang and Xiao Nanchen were still waiting on the sofa.
Uncle Zhong was also still awake in his room, constantly busy, probably using this way to relieve his tense emotions.
She said to Uncle Zhong, "Uncle Zhong, could you please help me find some cold medicine?"
"Okay." Uncle Zhong quickly agreed.
An Nuan then sat down on the sofa, next to Qin Jiang and Xiao Nanchen.
The two looked at her, seemingly not knowing where to start.
They also avoided discussing the state An Nuan had been in when she returned.
No one wanted to reopen the wounds again and again!
Instead, it was An Nuan who calmly spoke up, "I saw Ye Jinghuai, his physical condition...is not very good."
"I knew it, Gu Yan Sheng definitely won't treat Jinghuai well!" Qin Jiang raged.
At this moment, he was probably at the limit of his tolerance.
When he saw An Nuan return, he had actually been on the verge of exploding.
If Xiao Nanchen hadn't stopped him,
he really would have rushed to Gu Yan Sheng's face and shot him dead!
"But he shouldn't...die," An Nuan said.
She really didn't know how to describe Ye Jinghuai's physical condition.
The only way to express it was,
he won't die.
Qin Jiang heard this and his whole body was trembling with anger.
Xiao Nanchen's expression also didn't look too good.
But he didn't say anything.
He knew very well that the priority now was to remain calm.
To calmly consider what should be done next.
Xiao Nanchen asked, "Did your cousin say anything else?"
"He did," An Nuan nodded. "He said the Lunar New Year is coming soon, and after that is his birthday. He said if he can't get out by then, for me to forget about him."
With a calm tone,
but it made An Nuan's eyes well up again.
"Didn't he say anything else?" Xiao Nanchen's expression was serious.
From just these few sentences, he found it hard to extract any useful information.
"He said two more words," An Nuan recalled.
Trying hard to remember the words Ye Jinghuai had whispered into her ear when he hugged her.
She really hadn't heard them clearly.
Not a single bit.
But she was certain, it was two words.
"What two words?" Qin Jiang asked somewhat anxiously.
"I don't know," An Nuan shook her head.
She truly couldn't make them out.
They were too low, too low.
Qin Jiang was a bit impatient.
They all knew those two words were the key.
But now they didn't know what those two words were!
Seeing Qin Jiang's breakdown, Xiao Nanchen quickly said, "Whatever your cousin said, he must have had a purpose. Even if we didn't hear those two words clearly, we should be able to find clues from the other information. Let's not be hasty."
"I'm going crazy with worry!" Qin Jiang was exasperated, "Thinking about Jinghuai in there... Damn it, his stomach condition is so serious!"
An Nuan had just received the glass of water and pills from Uncle Zhong.
She looked up at Qin Jiang.
Qin Jiang said, "Jinghuai has a stomach condition, he's had a stomach perforation before! The doctor said if he doesn't properly recuperate his stomach, it'll be ruined! He might even get cancer!"
Qin Jiang got more and more exaggerated as he spoke.
Xiao Nanchen couldn't help but interrupt him, "Don't talk nonsense. My cousin's stomach is much better now. It's not as serious as you're saying, just a stomach perforation that healed, it won't turn into cancer!"
An Nuan just listened quietly.
"Nuan Nuan," Xiao Nanchen changed the topic, looking at An Nuan, "Are you sure your cousin only said those few sentences?"
"He said if he died, for me to remarry."
"Damn it!" Qin Jiang cursed.
At a time like this, he could still say something like that!
The woman he had loved his whole life.
If she really remarried, it would be like smoke coming out of Jinghuai's grave.
Pah pah pah.
Qin Jiang shook his head vigorously.
Ye Jinghuai won't die!
"I'm now thinking, why did my cousin suddenly bring up his birthday," Xiao Nanchen was seriously grasping at the details, much calmer than Qin Jiang.
An Nuan finished taking the cold medicine and also joined Xiao Nanchen in the serious discussion, "Yes, I also feel the detail about the birthday should be conveying something."
But what is it conveying?!
"January 18th?" An Nuan asked, "Is there something wrong with the date?"
Xiao Nanchen shook his head.
It didn't seem like there was any information in that.
The two fell into contemplation.
Qin Jiang suddenly had a realization, loudly saying, "Last year for Jinghuai's birthday, I gave him a phone!"
An Nuan and Xiao Nanchen paused.
A phone!
Yes!
An Nuan suddenly became anxious.
In her mind, Ye Jinghuai leaning close to her ear seemed to be saying those two words.
