After leaving the hospital, Nanxi quickly flagged down a car and got in.
The driver, a man in his forties, asked Nanxi, "Young lady, where do you want to go?"
Nanxi hesitated for a moment before saying, "Anywhere but here. Anywhere is fine as long as I can leave this place."
The driver was a bit taken aback, but he didn’t say anything more and promptly started the car.
The driver drove around downtown for about ten minutes, during which Nanxi didn’t say a word. It wasn’t until her phone rang from inside her bag that she spoke. The caller was Yang Su!
Nanxi’s gaze flickered as she took a deep breath and answered.
Yang Su told her that Bai Yuchuan and the rest of the gang were meeting up tonight, and she asked Nanxi if she had time to join them. They hadn’t gathered in a while, and now that Lan Qiqi wasn’t in H City, if Nanxi didn’t join, the gathering would likely be called off!
Hearing Yang Su’s voice, Nanxi’s suppressed emotions seemed to find an outlet. Just as she uttered Yang Su’s name, tears started to fall!
On the other end of the call, Yang Su noticed that Nanxi’s voice was off and hurriedly asked, "Nanxi, are you crying? What’s wrong? Nanxi? Where are you now? Tell me quickly!"
On Nanxi’s end, the tears wouldn’t stop. As Yang Su grew more worried on the other end of the line, the driver finally took the phone from Nanxi and arranged a meeting point with Yang Su before dropping Nanxi off.
Nanxi got out of the taxi in front of a KTV venue, where Yang Su and Bai Yuchuan were waiting for her. Seeing Nanxi, Yang Su immediately rushed over and grabbed her hand!
Nanxi’s tears hadn’t ceased, so Bai Yuchuan had Yang Su take Nanxi to their reserved room while he went to pay the taxi fare. He asked the driver if he knew what happened.
The driver shook his head, "I’m not entirely sure. But I could tell there was something off when I picked this girl up from the hospital. She initially didn’t know where she wanted to go, and then after receiving a phone call, she started crying nonstop. I’ve no idea what could make her that upset..."
Bai Yuchuan’s eyebrow twitched, "Hospital? Which one?"
"H City First People’s Hospital!"
Without saying another word, Bai Yuchuan pulled out a red bill and handed it over to the driver, "No need for change."
After paying, he walked away.
In the KTV room, Yang Su pulled Nanxi inside, asking her what happened.
Nanxi shook her head.
Yang Su asked, "Did Lu Yinchu do something to hurt you?"
Nanxi shook her head again!
Yang Su grew anxious, "Then what happened, Nanxi? Say something! You’re going to worry me to death!"
Nanxi looked at Yang Su, wanting to speak, but what could she say?
Not long after Nanxi left, Ni Xuexue entered the ward. Upon closing the door, Ni Xuexue let out a sigh of relief, "Oh my, I was scared to death!"
Han Qing gave her a quick glance and asked, "What happened?"
Ni Xuexue walked over, picked up a slice of apple from the fruit plate on Han Qing’s bedside table, and said between bites, "Nothing! By the way, did you get any clues? Can Gu Nanxi be baited? I feel is hanging by a thread!"
Han Qing pursed her thin lips and said lightly, "Don’t worry, she will."
Ni Xuexue was taken aback; she couldn’t understand where Han Qing’s confidence was coming from. She remembered in the cafe, the things she showed Gu Nanxi had made her pale. But her expression remained calm!
Ni Xuexue felt a bit uneasy and asked, "How can you be so sure! She seemed very composed when I saw her! It appeared like it didn’t bother her at all!"
"But she’s just pretending to be strong!" Han Qing grinned," If I’m not wrong, she should be crying somewhere right now!"
Looking at Han Qing’s expression, Ni Xuexue felt a chill run down her spine!
Indeed, she didn’t expect Han Qing to have this in her repertoire.
When she was pregnant and Han Qing wrote her name on the abortion file, and when Lu Yinchu sent over the property transfer contract for her photocopy, Han Qing had these plans? That was already several months ago. The time when she was pregnant, counting it down, it’s been more than two months now. This woman is truly extraordinary!
Ni Xuexue was both admiring and slightly afraid because even after knowing her for three years, she felt that she still couldn’t understand her!
"So, what’s next?" Ni Xuexue asked, "Even if Gu Nanxi is hurt by this, the way she is acting, she doesn’t seem to be planning on leaving Lu Yinchu. What will you do in this situation?"
