After the divorce, my second-married military officer husband doted on me
Chapter 346 Paying the Price
"Wife, where are you?"
In the courtyard, Gu Siheng searched all the rooms but couldn't find Jiang Nuan. He was so anxious that his eyes turned red.
"Wife, where have you been?"
"Why did you suddenly disappear?"
Yun Shu followed him, tears welling up in her eyes. "Uncle, where is Aunt Nuan?"
"Why did you suddenly disappear?"
"Won't she go for a walk in the park with us?"
Jiang Nuan suddenly disappeared. Gu Siheng was anxious and had a bad feeling in his heart. He squatted down to comfort Yun Shu, "Yun Shu, be good, can you wait for me at home?
Your Aunt Nuan might be out, I'll go look for her outside."
Gu Siheng knew very well that Jiang Nuan might have entered the space.
But she would never suddenly enter the space in front of him without warning.
He suddenly disappeared without any warning tonight, so something must have happened that he didn't know about.
Yun Shu was afraid of being alone at home and wanted to follow Gu Siheng, “But I’m scared when I’m alone at home.
Uncle, can I go with you?
I promise I won't run around and I will follow you obediently."
Yun Shu's face was full of worry and fear.
She knew she shouldn't be willful at this time.
But after wandering for too long, I was suddenly surrounded by warmth.
Now if she were left alone at home, she would really be scared.
He was afraid that something might happen to Jiang Nuan.
Gu Siheng looked at her little face filled with fear and his heart softened.
Yunshu is still young. It's so cold, and she must feel insecure after wandering around alone for so long. It's really too much to let her stay at home alone.
"Sorry! Uncle was inconsiderate."
"Uncle shouldn't have left you alone."
"Uncle will take you to find Aunt Nuan."
Gu Siheng picked up Yun Shu and walked out of the courtyard quickly, looking for Jiang Nuan everywhere.
Behind him, Black Hawk and Black Flame followed closely in his footsteps...
.......
In the space, Jiang Nuan was still discussing with the old man.
"Old man, I know you are the best and kindest, so can you help me just once?
I disappeared suddenly, and when I return to leave the dimension later, Ah Heng will be suspicious and worried when he sees me."
The old man tugged at his mustache angrily, "Do you know how ugly you look right now?
Even if I help you lie, your husband can tell at a glance that something is wrong with you with his intelligence.
If you ask me, since he already knows that you will be retaliated against for saving people, you should tell him the truth.
Aren’t you humans the ones who value sincerity the most?
No matter what happens between husband and wife, there should be no secrets, otherwise even the best relationship will wear away over time."
Jiang Nuan, "Old man, this is different.
If I tell him, he will just be worried all day long.
Sometimes white lies are told for the other person’s own good.”
The old man shook his head and said, "I am not a human being, and I don't understand the complex emotions of you humans.
If you insist on hiding it from him, I can help you.
But only this time.
If you go against the will of heaven and save people again and get retaliated against, he will find out even if I don't say it.
Master, the punishment of heaven is irreversible. If you insist on disobeying it, the price will be your life!"
The old man told Jiang Nuan the seriousness of the backlash for violating the will of heaven to save people, hoping that she would pay attention to it.
Jiang Nuan certainly knew that the punishment from Heaven was irreversible.
Every time I went against the will of heaven to save someone and was retaliated against, the pain in my chest was excruciating, each time more intense than the last.
But the people she saved were all her relatives. She knew they were in danger of their lives, so she couldn't just stand by and watch them die.
Jiang Nuan lowered her head, "I know. I'll be more careful next time."
She thought for a moment and asked, "If there are other foreseen images, and I report them to the police, will there be repercussions if I don't show up at the scene?"
The old man scratched his head when he heard this, "I have never encountered such a situation before, and I don't know if it will backfire?
But if you report it to the police, it will be considered a leak of the secret, and you will probably be doomed."
Jiang Nuan sighed helplessly, "There's nothing we can do about it. Life and death are determined by fate, and wealth and honor are determined by heaven.
Just take it one step at a time.
We agreed that you would help me dispel Ah Heng's suspicions, so don't let me down later."
The old man remained silent, but nodded helplessly.
He had silently used his life to help Jiang Nuan offset the negative effects of these backlashes on her body.
His blood can heal Jiang Nuan's wounds from the backlash...
……
When Jiang Nuan appeared in the courtyard with the old man, he looked around but couldn't find him and Yun Shu.
“It’s over, he must have taken Yunshu out to look for me.
Old man, you said I was going out to look for him or was he waiting at home?"
The old man snorted, "Wait at home!"
“Your husband knows that you have some space and can’t find you nearby, so he will definitely come back and won’t make a big fuss about reporting you to the police.
Also, before he comes back, quickly put some rouge on your face to cover up your pale face."
Jiang Nuan raised her hand and touched her face. "Does it look ugly?"
The old man said with disdain, "It's ugly, so ugly."
Wouldn't it be embarrassing to shorten your life by a few years?
……
After half an hour.
In the dark night, the wind was cold and the dim street lights shone through the branches and leaves onto the ground, forming hazy shadows, and the biting cold wind whistled in my ears.
Gu Siheng searched for Jiang Nuan near the courtyard for more than half an hour. Afraid that Yun Shu would catch a cold, he wrapped her in his coat.
He saw Jiang Nuan suddenly disappear in front of him with his own eyes. Because he knew that Jiang Nuan had a space, he knew that if she didn't show up on her own initiative, it would be useless even if he called the police.
Therefore, he did not dare to go far and just searched near the courtyard.
But at this moment, Black Hawk and Black Flame, who were walking in front of him, suddenly turned around and ran towards home.
Seeing this, Gu Siheng was delighted, "Black Eagle, Black Flame, is Nuan Nuan back?"
Black Hawk and Black Flame were running very fast towards the courtyard. Their speed was as fast as the wind and Gu Siheng could not catch up with them at all.
Gu Siheng lowered his head and said to Yun Shu in his arms, "Yun Shu, let's go back!
Your Aunt Nuan may be back."
Yun Shu stayed obediently in Gu Siheng's arms, afraid that he would get tired from holding her, so she didn't dare to move.
"Okay, I'll listen to uncle."
……
On the other side, Huo Qiming was on his way to send Lu Ting home.
The more Lu Ting thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong. "Qiming, I don't think Nuannuan was telling the truth today."
Huo Qiming knew Jiang Nuan wasn't telling the truth, "But she doesn't want to say it, so we can't ask."
Lu Ting was a little excited, "I'm really sure that she was the one who saved Cai Lian and me outside the city last time.
I guess her voice was deliberately changed at that time. Her height and figure are the same, and even her aura is very similar.
My sixth sense couldn't be wrong. She must have been the one who saved us that day.
That night she showed up as suddenly as she had tonight.
But I can't understand why she saved us but kept it a secret.
And what happened tonight, why didn’t she let us tell Ah Heng?
I think she seemed to be afraid that Ah Heng would know something."
Huo Qiming felt the same way, "She found her second uncle and Xiaowei because of a dream.
Her sudden appearance tonight might be related to her dream. As for why she didn't admit to saving you and Cailian, she might have her own reasons."
As they were talking, they had already arrived at the Lu family's house. Huo Qiming parked the car outside the Lu family's gate and said, "Tingting, no matter what doubts you have in your heart, you must pretend that you don't know.
Nuannuan has her own concerns if she doesn't want to tell us, and we can't force her to tell, but I will get to the bottom of this matter.
She is so skilled.
I will find out why she saved you but kept it a secret?
Why did you ask us not to let Ah Heng know after saving us tonight?
I'll find out what she's worried about."
Huo Qiming raised his hand and ruffled Lu Ting's hair, saying softly, "I'm sorry, I ruined a good date.
I won't take you in tonight.
I have a leg injury, and if I go in, your mother will be worried if she finds out."
Lu Ting shook her head. "I don't blame you. It's those people who went too far."
Thinking that everything that happened tonight was caused by those two women from the Women's Federation, Huo Qiming's eyes instantly turned cold. "Don't worry, I won't let go of those two women from the Women's Federation who spread rumors in the cinema."
……
In the courtyard.
Jiang Nuan chose to listen to the old man and did not go out to find Gu Siheng.
She didn't have to wait long. With the excited shouts of Black Hawk and Black Flame, she knew they were back before she even saw Gu Siheng.
"Wang Wang Wang..."
"Wang Wang Wang..."
"..."
"Old man, they are back." Jiang Nuan hurried out of the room. As soon as she stepped out of the yard, Black Hawk and Black Flame rushed to her feet like a gust of wind, and kept supporting Jiang Nuan's legs with their heads.
"Wang Wang Wang..."
"Wang Wang Wang..."
"..."
The two military dogs raised their heads and barked at Jiang Nuan.
Jiang Nuan saw worry in their eyes.
Black Hawk and Black Flame are very smart, with IQs like those of children of a few years old.
Jiang Nuan really likes them.
She squatted down and rubbed their heads, "Sorry! I scared you by disappearing without saying hello.
But don't worry, I'm fine.
Look, didn't I show up in good health? " As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Siheng ran into the yard, holding Yun Shu in his arms, panting.
"Wife!" Gu Siheng stared at Jiang Nuan closely, fearing that he had seen it wrong.
He quickly put Yun Shu down, strode forward and hugged Jiang Nuan, "You scared me to death!"
"Why did you suddenly disappear without saying hello?
Do you know how worried I was when you disappeared?
I searched every room in the house but couldn't find you.
I know you have space, and I thought you might have entered it.
I'm really worried about not being able to find you
In order to ease my panic, I only dared to look for you nearby and didn’t dare to go far…” As soon as Gu Siheng saw her, he noticed that she had put on makeup, although it was very light, but he still noticed it.
What he was most worried about was that Jiang Nuan had a sudden physical problem after she suffered backlash when she saved Gu Hong and Gu Minglei last time, so she hid herself on purpose to prevent him from worrying, and would not come out until her body recovered.
Jiang Nuan felt that Gu Siheng's hands were trembling as he held her.
She hugged Gu Siheng back and apologized, "I'm sorry for making you worry."
"I suddenly felt that the old man was about to wake up. I was so excited that I forgot to say hello and went into the space to find him.
If you don't believe me, ask the old man. I really didn't lie to you." Jiang Nuan tilted her head and looked at the old man in the corner, signaling him to cooperate.
The old man was wearing a gray robe and nodded in cooperation.
Gu Siheng followed her gaze and saw the old man standing in the corner with a forced smile on his face.
The smile that didn't reach his eyes made Gu Siheng feel a little weird.
"Old man, you're awake!" Gu Siheng was a little surprised.
"You woke up suddenly. Is the backlash you endured for Nuannuan over?"
The old man glanced at Jiang Nuan with an ambiguous look, "It's over, otherwise why would I wake up?"
How would you know that your wife is so bold as to play with her life if you don’t wake up?
Gu Siheng let go of Jiang Nuan and thanked the old man very respectfully, "Thank you!"
"Thank you for bearing the backlash for Nuannuan."
Old man, "She has signed a blood pact with me and is my master. It is my duty to bear the backlash for her.
Well, now that you're back, I won't bother you any more. I'm going back to my space to practice."
After the old man finished speaking, he entered the space without waiting for them to reply.
After entering the space, he found a secluded place to hide, and then suddenly a dagger and a white porcelain bottle appeared in his hands.
Without hesitation, he cut his finger with a dagger and then dripped the blood into the porcelain bottle.
"Master, my true form is a tree.
My roots absorb the essence of the sun and the moon and the nutrients of all things. After transforming into a human, my blood can cure all diseases and detoxify all poisons.
Use my blood as a medicine to heal your internal injuries caused by the backlash. This will transfer the backlash to me, and I will bear the pain of the backlash..."
After the old man entered the space, Yun Shu ran to Jiang Nuan and hugged her waist, "Auntie Nuan, you're back.
You suddenly disappeared, and my uncle and I were scared to death."
Jiang Nuan picked up Yun Shu and said, "Sorry, I promised to take you to the park, but Auntie Nuan had something to do and broke her promise. Can I take you there tomorrow?"
Yun Shu nodded obediently, "Okay."
"Let's go shopping a little longer tomorrow and make up for today's time."
"Okay, listen to Yunshu and make it up to her!" Jiang Nuan scratched her nose, not daring to meet Gu Siheng's eyes, for fear that he would notice something was wrong.
Gu Siheng saw through it but didn't say anything. Since Jiang Nuan wanted to hide it, he pretended not to know.
He even pretended to be relieved and said with a smile, "So the old man has woken up, no wonder you are so excited.
But next time you encounter something like this, don’t just disappear without saying a word, or I’ll be worried.”
Jiang Nuan nodded guiltily, "Don't worry, it won't happen again.
It just happened so suddenly today that I didn’t have time to tell you.”
Gu Siheng lifted the hair that fell on her shoulders and said softly, "Remember what you said. Don't scare me like this again."
……
Three hours later.
In a small villa in the west of the city, the aunt from the Women's Federation who was dragging Lu Ting was walking back and forth in the house, checking her phone from time to time.
"Strange, why haven't you replied after so long?
In the past, if I asked Qiangzi to help me with something, he would help me get it done in an hour or two at most. Why didn't he call me after so long? Could it be that he was unsuccessful? The aunt was a little uneasy. She couldn't wait for news from Huangmao and called to ask about the result...
But no one answered the phone after calling again and again.
"What's going on? Why doesn't Qiangzi answer the phone?
Is he still not back or has something happened? "Thinking that the two men were dressed like rich people, the aunt felt a little uneasy.
"Isn't something really wrong?"
The auntie dared to let people touch Huo Qiming and Lu Ting, so she must have someone backing her up.
She was worried about Huangmao, so she called another person, "Hey, second brother, could you please help me find out where Qiangzi is now?
I asked him to help me teach two people a lesson, but hours have passed and there is still no news. I am worried that he has failed. "
