Chapter 751 - Concern (2/2)

She could tell that Gu Sheng’s emotions after seeing her were not less than what Mu Sihan had when he first saw her.

“Brother Ah Sheng, there’s a client that asked me to go perform a ritual tonight, you don’t have to wait for me for dinner.” Ling Er pushed the door open, stopping immediately when she saw the couple hugging inside.

She looked down, her long lashes covering the sadness appearing in her eyes. “I’m sorry.”

Ling Er closed door almost instantly.

Nan Zhi heard Ling Er’s words, but the warm man who was hugging her seemed to still be immersed in the happiness that she was still alive. He continued to hug her tightly, unwilling to let go.

Nan Zhi tried to find a way to struggle out of his hold.

Gu Sheng’s warm eyes glanced at Nan Zhi, who glanced towards the door. “Miss Ling Er seems to have misunderstood us.”

Gu Sheng caressed Nan Zhi’s hair habitually, staring at her with warm eyes. “I only treat Ling Er as a young sister.” Seeing that she did not reply, he immediately broke into a faint smile. “Of course, you are too.”

Nan Zhi was hospitalized for three days, though her head will still hurt occasionally.

She had done a CT scan, but the scan was too blurry and the doctors could not tell if there was a chip in her brain. She then did a nuclear magnetic resonance scan, but the doctors did not discover a chip either.

Maybe, the current medical technology was not enough to identify it.

Apart from the occasional headaches, Nan Zhi did not feel any other discomfort.

She did not get into a situation where she lost control of herself again.

There was a very high possibility that the chip lost its purpose after that gunshot at Mu Sihan woke her up.

Qiao Yanze arrived early to help Nan Zhi settle her discharge procedures.

Seeing the faint dark eye circles under his eyes, Nan Zhi asked, “Was Uncle not unable to rest properly recently?”

Qiao Yanze merely smiled.

The two of them walked out of the hospital, about to reach the car park when Qiao Yanze’s phone rang.

“What? You have a fever and fell down? Alright, alright, I’ll come over immediately.”

After Qiao Yanze hung up the call, he turned to Nan Zhi. “Something had happened with Xiao Ying, so I have to rush over. You wait a while at the hospital lobby. I’ll get a driver to come fetch you.”

The moment Qiao Yanze finished speaking, a loud honk rang as a black Bentley stopped in front of them.

The window wound down, revealing Gu Sheng’s warm and handsome face. “Young Master Qiao, I’ll send Little Flower back!”

“Alright, I’m sorry to trouble you.”

Gu Sheng got down to open the front pa.s.senger seat door for Nan Zhi. He only returned to the driver’s seat after she was seated properly.

Nan Zhi had a cheek on her hand as she looked out of the window, her expression slightly dazed out.

“Are you thinking about your Uncle, or are you thinking about him?”

Nan Zhi blinked. “Who?” However, she immediately understood who Gu Sheng was referring to.

At Light Island, he did everything in order to see her.

But now that she had returned to the Capital and saw her family and friends, he did not appear even once.

In the three days that she had been hospitalized, even their son had visited her several times, but he had not visited her at all.

Did he receive some blow after seeing the face under Lan Ye’s disguise on the speedboat that day?

The car drove stably towards the Qiao family castle. When they pa.s.sed by a slightly high-cla.s.s coffee shop, Nan Zhi suddenly saw the man Gu Sheng and her had mentioned.

He got out of his car, walking towards a convertible sports car not too far away. After speaking to the driver, he pulled the door open.

A tall and eye-catching woman got off, wrapping her hands over his arm on an intimate manner.
