President, the deceased lady has three more children

After a moment of silence, Fu Yunchuan asked Gu Yihe again.

"I'll ask you one more time, where did Nanxing go?"

After he finished his work, he called Nanxing to talk to her, but no one answered. Another possibility is that Nanxing blocked him.

He also had someone investigate where Nanxing was. They found that Nanxing went to Xingchen after dropping the children off at kindergarten, and then never came out of Xingchen.

Gu Yihe also went to Xingchen in the morning.

Gu Yihe took a sip of tea, knowing that Fu Yunchuan's question meant there was no way to fool him anymore, or rather, he had never thought he could hide it from Fu Yunchuan.

If Fu Yunchuan really wanted to know, how could he not find out? He's only asking him now because he trusts him.

"She's gone to take care of some errands, but don't worry, I've arranged for someone to follow her. She'll be fine and should be back tomorrow."

"She'll probably be back tomorrow? What do you mean by 'probably'? And what do you mean by 'tomorrow'? Is she going to stay out overnight? What are you making her do? Why does she have to stay out overnight?"

Fu Yunchuan frowned, continuing to ask questions.

Gu Yihe sighed helplessly. Only Nanxing could elicit such emotional outward expression from Fu Yunchuan.

"That's her freedom. You haven't even sorted out your own affairs yet, and you're asking so many questions? Anyway, don't worry, I guarantee she'll be fine and will be back safe and sound tomorrow."

Fu Yunchuan looked deeply at Gu Yihe, a hint of vulnerability gradually appearing in his eyes.

“I’m so worried that something might have happened to her. I don’t want to go through what happened six years ago again.”

He leaned back on the sofa and closed his eyes, and even then, you could feel the vulnerability emanating from him.

Yes, fragile.

These two words seem particularly absurd when applied to Fu Yunchuan, to the point that outsiders would think someone is joking.

But Gu Yihe didn't think so; he knew clearly that Fu Yunchuan's current emotions were genuine.

For Fu Yunchuan, Nanxing's accident back then meant not only that he had unknowingly fallen in love with her, but also that he had unknowingly killed his beloved wife.

Even though Fu Yunchuan hadn't acknowledged Nanxing's death for so many years, he had indeed lived those unknown days and nights in his heart.

Especially since he had just learned from Nanxing that someone had used him to kill Nanxing back then, how could Fu Yunchuan not be afraid at this moment?

"Have some tea, calm down. Trust me, I won't let anything happen to her." Gu Yihe poured Fu Yunchuan another cup of tea.

Fu Yunchuan took a sip. "Was it for those patients?"

"Yes." Gu Yihe did not hide anything.

Fu Yunchuan leaned back on the sofa, his tone deep and serious when he spoke again.

“Yihe, if something happens to her again because of me, I really won’t be able to live. You shouldn’t have dragged her into this.”

"I'm sorry, this is the only way we can do it." Gu Yihe didn't offer any further explanation, only an apology.

"Can't you tell me where she is?" Fu Yunchuan didn't delve into the apology, but simply asked about Nanxing's location again.

"No, she said she doesn't want anyone to know, especially you. You know how she treats you. If she finds out I gave you my address, she'll definitely hold a grudge against me too."

Fu Yunchuan didn't speak, but his eyelids trembled slightly.

Yes, that's how Nanxing treated him.

Gu Yihe wanted to say a few more words, but found that Fu Yunchuan had already started breathing evenly and had fallen asleep against the back of the sofa.

He glanced at the tea in the health-preserving kettle, clicked his tongue lightly, and realized that his grandmother hadn't exaggerated; this calming tea did indeed have some effect.

If he hadn't known that Fu Yunchuan had spent the entire night discussing Lu Mingzhu's condition with the doctors they had trained, and then returned to the company at three or four in the morning to handle an urgent task, and had now rushed over without sleeping all night, he wouldn't have bothered to brew this tea for Fu Yunchuan at this critical juncture.

He was just worried that if Fu Yunchuan continued to neglect his health, he would eventually die suddenly.

He took a blanket from the break room, covered Fu Yunchuan with it, and then lifted Fu Yunchuan's feet and put them on the coffee table. After that, he returned to his desk and sent a message to Nanxing.

Although he always believed that Nanxing would be alright, he still dared not let his guard down.

It wasn't just because of Feng Jiejie, but also because of what Fu Yunchuan said earlier.

Nanxing only replied with two words: "It's nothing."

Upon seeing these two words, Gu Yihe breathed a sigh of relief. Although he already knew that Nanxing was alright, he still needed Nanxing to reply in person to feel a little more at ease.

After replying to Gu Yihe's message, Nanxing put her phone in her coat pocket and zipped it up.

"Miss He, please have something to eat and some water first."

A baby-faced girl with short, neat hair, wearing a black windbreaker, handed Nanxing a piece of bread and a bottle of mineral water.

This girl, named Tian Yue, is the one Gu Yihe found to accompany Nanxing. Don't let her baby face fool you; she's actually very capable. Not only is she a skilled fighter, but she also holds a wilderness survival instructor's certificate, making her the perfect person to accompany Nanxing.

"Thank you."

Nanxing took it and started eating without being polite. Today, she was also wearing a black windbreaker and black sneakers, and her hair was neatly tied into a bun.

Both of them were traveling light, carrying only a bag and nothing else.

There wasn't much in the bag, just a tent, some bread and compressed biscuits, and some bottled water.

They were prepared to spend the night here.

As Nanxing ate his bread, he looked around at the surroundings. There were only trees and weeds, so it was clear that not many people usually came here.

This place is very different for her, and holds very special memories for her, but after arriving here, she found that some of those memories seemed to have become blurred.

She never even imagined that she would ever set foot here again.

"Miss He, are you alright?"

Tian Yue's voice rang in her ears, and Nan Xing suddenly snapped back to reality, only to realize that she had been lost in memories.

"I'm fine, why do you ask that?"

"No, I just noticed you were spacing out and thought you were tired."

Tian Yue explained that what she didn't say was that she initially thought Nanxing was tired, since they had walked quite a distance since they started climbing the mountain, and most people would be exhausted.

But Nanxing never complained of being tired from beginning to end, and kept looking for what she needed, which Nanxing admired.

It wasn't until she noticed the immense sorrow and bitterness in Nanxing's dazed eyes that she realized something was wrong, and then she spoke up to wake him up.

"It's nothing, I'm fine. I was just trying to figure out which way to go. I saw that herb when I was very young, but it's been over ten years and I can't quite remember the way or the direction anymore," Nanxing explained casually.

"Miss He, did you come here when you were a child?" Tian Yue asked in surprise.

Nanxing nodded. "Yes, I've been here once before, otherwise I wouldn't have been sure it was here."

"No wonder you looked so familiar when we went up the mountain. I thought you had done your research online."

Nanxing smiled, said nothing more, stuffed the last bite of bread into his mouth, took a sip of mineral water, and stood up to continue his search.

"Let's go, try to find it as soon as possible and get back. Thank you for your hard work."

“Miss He, this is not strenuous at all. This level of intensity is nothing. It’s as easy as taking a walk for me.”

"Don't call me Miss He anymore, just call me..." Nanxing suddenly didn't know what to call her.

He Ling? Bu Gui? Or Nan Xing?

Perhaps it was because revisiting a familiar place had slightly affected her mood, but she felt a little sad. She had so many names, but she didn't know which one to introduce herself to others.

"How about I just call you 'sister'?" Tian Yue noticed Nanxing's hesitation and offered to help.

"But it's not in terms of age, it's more like a respectful older sister," Tian Yue explained, scratching her head.

Because she felt that the two were about the same age.

Nanxing smiled and said, "Sure, you can just call me 'sister' all the time. It's too polite to keep calling me 'Miss He'."

"Okay, sis!" Tian Yue immediately replied.

The two continued walking forward, with Nanxing relying on the few memories in her mind and the bits and pieces she found online.

With Tian Yue, a professional outdoor enthusiast, there, it wasn't as difficult as I had imagined.

Fu Yunchuan suddenly woke up from his nightmare, and the blanket on his body slipped to the ground. A layer of cold sweat covered his forehead.

Gu Yihe looked up at him, originally thinking that Fu Yunchuan should have woken up after sleeping for more than an hour, until he noticed that Fu Yunchuan's expression was not right.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

Fu Yunchuan didn't speak. He frowned and looked around at his surroundings, making sure he was just dreaming before taking his feet off the coffee table and pouring a cup of tea from the kettle next to him.

Gu Yihe sensed that something was off with Fu Yunchuan, so he walked straight over from the desk.

"what happened?"

"It's nothing, just a dream." After drinking a cup of tea, Fu Yunchuan's mood improved noticeably.

"You had a dream? Have you been working too hard lately? A dream can scare you like this? Is this really our renowned CEO Fu?"

Fu Yunchuan held his teacup, ignoring Gu Yihe's teasing, still feeling lingering fear as he thought about the contents of his dream.

“I dreamt that Nanxing had an accident, and she was crying all by herself.”

Gu Yihe's expression froze; no wonder Fu Yunchuan was frightened.

“I understand you’re worried about Nanxing, but isn’t it a bit far-fetched that you dreamed she was crying alone? Do you think Nanxing is the type to cry easily right now?”

Fu Yunchuan lowered his eyes and remained silent.

Gu Yihe could only helplessly continue to comfort Fu Yunchuan, sensing the oppressive atmosphere emanating from him.

"Don't worry, Nanxing didn't go out alone, how could she be crying alone? You're just worrying too much about her, and dreams are often the opposite of reality. She's perfectly fine right now."

To comfort Fu Yunchuan, Gu Yihe even pulled out his chat history with Nanxing. The latest message was just ten minutes ago, in which Gu Yihe asked Nanxing if she was alright, and Nanxing replied simply with the words "I'm fine."

Fu Yunchuan subconsciously reached for his phone to text Nanxing, but Gu Yihe quickly snatched the phone away.

"Don't even think about it. It's already a favor that I'm showing it to you. Nanxing said from the beginning that you couldn't know, so telling you this already breaks my promise."

If I let you use my phone to chat with her again, and she finds out, she definitely won't trust me anymore. So you should just wait for her to come back, or you can use this time to spend more time with the children.

"You've missed out on two children for so many years, now it's time to make it up to them."

Fu Yunchuan felt an even greater bitterness after hearing Gu Yihe's words.

"How could I not want to make amends? But they never gave me that chance, and even... last night they blocked me on WeChat."

Gu Yihe raised an eyebrow, and seemed to understand something after listening to Fu Yunchuan's words.

"Did the children see the photos of you and Lu Mingzhu, and that's why they blocked you?"

"I'm not sure, they just scolded me a few times. I can't find them now. I'll go to their kindergarten later and see."

"I'm saying you still dare to go to that kindergarten to wait for them? Don't you know that kindergarten belongs to the Yun family? Nanxing isn't home right now, so one of the three Yun brothers will definitely be there to pick up the children. Aren't you afraid of getting beaten up if you go?"

"What do you think?" Fu Yunchuan asked him calmly.

Gu Yihe clicked his tongue, "I advise you to..."

Before he could finish speaking, Fu Yunchuan's phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was Lu Mingzhu.

He didn't speak, but just watched Fu Yunchuan answer the call, and then shook his head helplessly.

If it weren't for the fact that they were brothers, he would have wanted to despise Fu Yunchuan for how he was treating Lu Mingzhu.

She said she wouldn't let go of Nanxing, but she wouldn't let go of Lu Mingzhu either.

"I've already made arrangements with the doctor. You just need to cooperate with the doctor's treatment. I have other things to do here and don't have time to go over right now. I'll make arrangements for the other side."

Fu Yunchuan hung up the phone immediately after speaking, without waiting for Lu Mingzhu's reply.

Gu Yihe was somewhat surprised when he heard Fu Yunchuan's answers.

"I never expected that you'd actually learned to refuse Lu Mingzhu now? Aren't you worried about her anymore? Aren't you afraid she'll cry and make a scene?"

Gu Yihe made no attempt to hide his sarcasm towards Fu Yunchuan.

Fu Yunchuan didn't take his sarcasm to heart, and simply explained, "I need to wait for the children this afternoon, and I also have things to do at the company. She has a doctor with her, so nothing will happen."

"So you knew that having a doctor present wouldn't cause any problems, then what were your reasons for doing all this before?"

"In the end, I'm the one who owes her," Fu Yunchuan replied after a pause.

"Tsk..." Gu Yihe clicked his tongue speechlessly, but didn't say anything more.

Regardless, Fu Yunchuan has made some progress; at least he didn't rush over just because Lu Mingzhu called.

Fu Yunchuan: "Keep a close eye on the Lu family, don't let He Feng take advantage of any loopholes."

"Are you really planning to help Lu Mingzhu save the company?"

"Just in case, He Feng is capable of doing such a thing." Fu Yunchuan's face darkened when he mentioned He Feng.

“In the end, Lu Mingzhu is still more important,” Gu Yihe said again.

Upon hearing this, Fu Yunchuan merely frowned slightly, offered no reply, and simply said "I'm leaving" before departing from the office.
