The snow was getting heavier and heavier, and Nangong Jin stayed in his arms without saying a word, just crying and crying!

Gu Jingxing held her face carefully, looking at her red and swollen eyes and red nose, he felt so heartbroken!

"Nangong Jin, if you cry... cry again, I will... not help you anymore!"

This trick really worked. She pouted and stared at Gu Jingxing with tears in her eyes!

"Let's go home with me!"

Gu Jingxing picked her up sideways without giving her any chance to refuse and wrapped her tightly with his coat!

Although Gu Jingxing immediately asked someone to help her change clothes and take a bath as soon as she returned home, she still developed a high fever that night!

Gu Jingxing sat on the edge of the bed, holding her hand tightly. Looking at her flushed face and frowning brows, he felt very uncomfortable!

While Nangong Jin was in a nightmare, he kept calling He Zichen's name!

Every time she shouted, it was like a knife stabbing straight into Gu Jingxing's heart. This cycle repeated over and over again, and his heart was already full of holes!

“Nangong Jin…Nangong Jin!”

The corners of his eyes were slightly red, and his lips were trembling as he called out to Nangong Jin over and over again!

On the twenty-seventh day of the lunar year, Nangong Jin was still in a coma with a high fever. He had been sleeping all the time. Even when he woke up occasionally, the only thing he said was: Have you found He Zichen?

Even the housekeeper felt sorry for her when he saw her like that, let alone Gu Jingxing!

On the 28th day of the lunar calendar, fortunately Nangong Jin's fever finally subsided, but as soon as she opened her eyes, she immediately sat up, threw back the quilt, and walked towards the door!

Just then, he met Gu Jingxing who opened the door and came in, "Nangong Jin, are you awake?!"

He nervously pulled the other person, fearing that it was an illusion, "What are you doing? You want to leave?!"

Nangong Jin's lips were dry and cracked as she was sick. She said in a hoarse voice: "I'm fine, I want to go back!..."

But before she could finish her words, she fell down! Fortunately, Gu Jingxing caught her quickly!

"What do you want? I've already found the person for you! How else do you want to torture me?! Ah?"

Gu Jingxing held her tightly in his arms and roared in grief and anger.

He hated Nangong Jin for not caring about him, and he also hated that he was being taken advantage of by her. He couldn't bear to see her suffer any harm!

On the twenty-ninth day of the lunar year, Gu Jingxing met the person who was responsible for investigating He Zichen's news in the study! The two talked for a long time in the study.

Until that person left, Gu Jingxing still stayed alone in the study, until the housekeeper's hurried voice came from outside the door!

"Master, it's bad, the young lady...she's gone!!!"

After hearing this, Gu Jingxing stood up suddenly and walked quickly towards the door.

"What did you say? What do you mean someone is missing? Are you all blind? You can't even take care of a patient!!!"

He roared loudly and ordered anxiously: "Let everyone go and look for her! Don't come back if you can't find her!"

"Yes, yes, yes...I'll go right away!"

Even after the housekeeper left, Gu Jingxing's brows were still furrowed. If she knew about that, she would probably...

Thinking of this, he didn't care about anything else and ran out quickly, looking for someone everywhere like crazy!

Nangong Jin, you must not get into any trouble!!!

Cafes in the city

It is still afternoon and although the snow has stopped, the weather is very cold, so everyone comes here to drink some hot drinks to warm up their bodies!

Nangong Jin stirred her coffee with a dull expression. The soft music in the restaurant did not make her feel excited at all!

Her face was very pale, and there was not a trace of blood on her lips!

It was not until someone sat down opposite her that she turned her eyes slightly and looked up at the other person!

"Nangong Jin, why...why do you look so haggard? Are you sick?"

Nangong Jin forced a smile, saying it was okay, "You said you wanted to tell me about He Zichen, so hurry up!"

The man put the briefcase on the table. His face was very solemn, and he seemed to be considering how to start the conversation!

Nangong Jin certainly noticed his abnormality, "Lawyer Su He, if you have anything to say, just say it. Whether it's good or bad, I... am mentally prepared!"

Su He stared at her with his eyes wide open, but still didn't say a word!

This made Nangong Jin more certain of her suspicions. She asked solemnly, word by word, "Did something happen to him?"

Su He looked at the girl in front of him, who was once so lively and bright, but now she was as lifeless as a doll, just an empty shell!

"Nangong Jin, you have to be mentally prepared for what I'm going to say next! If you're not in a good condition today, we can talk about it another day!"

"No need! Just tell me!"

Nangong Jin interrupted him hurriedly, holding the cup tightly with both hands, as if trying to hide his inner nervousness!

Seeing this, Su He did not hesitate any longer. He took out a document from his briefcase and handed it to Nangong Jin!

"This is a document concerning all the shares and equity held by He Zichen of the He Group, as well as the relevant authorizations and all the assets under his name!"

He paused and said, "All of them are transferred to Miss Nangong Jin unconditionally! If you sign on it, it will take effect immediately, and you will be the largest shareholder and acting president of the He Group!"

Nangong Jin dodged his gaze and stuffed the document back desperately: "I don't understand what you are saying, I just want to know where He Zichen is?"

Su He pursed his lips and looked at the other person seriously: "You are a lawyer, you know better than anyone what this means? He Zichen, he...he went abroad some time ago and happened to encounter unrest. He was shot by a stray bullet in the chaos. Now he is missing and his life or death is unknown!"

Nangong Jin widened his eyes, covered his ears desperately, and screamed.

"I don't want to listen. I don't want to believe you. You must be lying to me. He promised me that he would come back!!! He wouldn't lie to me! Wuuuuu..."

Su He controlled her body, holding her shoulders tightly, and said word by word: "He is very likely dead, do you know? Do you want to let all his hard work over the years fall into the hands of others in vain?"

"He has prepared these documents long ago, saying that they are just in case something happens to him and that they can help you live a better life! Even if you don't sign them today, other lawyers will come to you tomorrow or the day after tomorrow! God knows how many copies of the same documents he has prepared!"

Nangong Jin listened to these harsh and cruel words, covering his mouth and sobbing silently!

Her heart ached and her mind was in a mess. Her already weak body could not bear such a huge emotional fluctuation!

"Jane, you are not as perfect as Sam said. I am very disappointed in you!"

Su He looked at the woman in front of him. Although he felt extremely reluctant, they did not have much time to waste. If the news got back to the country, those people from the He family would immediately eat Nangong Jin alive without leaving any room for her!

At this moment, a figure rushed in hurriedly from outside the door. Without saying a word, he knocked Su He to the ground with one punch!

Everyone in the coffee shop was frightened and screamed and quickly hid aside. Su He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his hand and looked at the other person with cold eyes!

"You, what on earth did you say to her!!! If anything happens to her, I will make you pay with your life!"

Gu Jingxing hurriedly hugged Nangong Jin in his arms and coaxed her softly: "It's okay, let's go home! I will help you even if the sky falls!"

He ignored Nangong Jin's resistance, picked her up and left the coffee shop.

Su He was left there licking the corner of his mouth with a depressed look on his face: "He Zichen, He Zichen! You really left me with a big trouble!"
