After the scumbag Bai Yueguang returned to China, the rich daughter stopped pretending

The sky was turning pale, and the faint light of morning light shone through the glass window and gently fell on Chu Tang's face, illuminating her pale and haggard face.

Chu Tang sat by the window all night, and only fell asleep leaning against the window at dawn.

She slept very uneasily, and had several dreams related to Jiang Shixu intermittently, and woke up several times.

In her last dream, she dreamed that Jiang Shixu and Li Lanxi were standing in front of her holding hands. Jiang Shixu had a smile in his eyes and looked very happy. He told her that he was getting married and asked her to remember to attend his wedding.

Chutang cried in her dream.

When I woke up, there were tear marks on my face.

The nanny knocked on the door. "Miss Ruan, are you awake? It's time for lunch."

Chu Tang wiped her tears, walked to the door and opened it, "Auntie, you eat first, I'm going to take a shower and change clothes before going downstairs."

Seeing Chu Tang's haggard face and dark circles under her eyes, Auntie asked hesitantly, "Miss Ruan, did you not get enough rest last night?"

My aunt doesn’t read Weibo, so she doesn’t know about Jiang Shixu’s scandal, nor does she know that the Jiang and Ruan families had a previous engagement that has now been cancelled.

She just thought that Mr. Jiang and Miss Ruan were in a romantic relationship. Mr. Jiang cared about Miss Ruan very much and specifically instructed her to take good care of Miss Ruan. Seeing that Miss Ruan looked very bad, she asked with concern.

Chutang was very tired.

She only slept five hours, and that was fitful.

"I'm fine, don't worry."

The nanny didn't ask any more questions, only said: "Then you go take a shower first. I'll put the food in the pot to heat it up first, in case it gets cold later."

"Well, please."

"You're welcome. This is what I should do."

The nanny turned around and went downstairs. Chu Tang closed the door, leaned against it, and slowly descended along the door, sitting on the ground.

There are many missed calls and text messages on the phone.

She flipped through the pages one by one, but there was no one about Jiang Shixu.

Chu Tang hadn't eaten last night or this morning, and hadn't slept all night. He was now extremely exhausted, his whole body felt weak and powerless, and his face was so pale that it looked like he had a serious illness.

She leaned against the door, her knuckles numb from gripping the phone.

A phone call came in.

It’s Ruan Shaodong.

Chu Tang remembered that he said yesterday that he would send someone to pick her up home today, so she answered the phone.

On the other end of the phone, Ruan Shaodong's voice was gentle and low, carrying the concern and heartache of an old father, "Tangtang, how are you? Did you eat and sleep well?"

Chu Tang's nose felt sore, and her eyelashes became wet again. She said in a hoarse voice, "I'm fine, nothing serious."

Ruan Shaodong paused.

This kid is obviously lying.

Just by listening to her voice, you can tell that she is not feeling well. She must not have slept well last night and didn't eat well. Her voice is weak and she looks so frail.

Ugh.

Ruan Shaodong sighed inwardly, feeling upset. After calming down, he spoke again, "Tangtang, the press conference this morning is over. We've officially announced the cancellation of our engagement. Dad has sent a car to pick you up. You can go home after lunch."

Chu Tang's lips moved, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't open his mouth, and just said "hmm" weakly.

"Then go eat quickly. Dad is hanging up first."

Ruan Shaodong knew that his daughter was upset and needed some quiet time alone, so he hung up the phone after he finished talking.

Chu Tang sat on the floor for a long time before dragging his tired and numb body into the bathroom like a zombie.

Downstairs, the nanny called Jiang Shixu.

In order to be the first to know Chutang's news, Jiang Shixu left his private phone number to the nanny.

"Hello, Mr. Jiang, I'm the nanny taking care of Miss Ruan. Miss Ruan has been in a very bad mood since yesterday. I don't know what happened to her. She didn't eat dinner last night and didn't eat breakfast this morning. I just went to call her and saw that she looked very bad and had dark circles under her eyes, as if she hadn't slept all night."

Jiang Shixu was silent for a moment, his voice hoarse, "Find a way to get her to eat something."

"I cooked Miss Ruan's favorite dishes. She just said she'd come downstairs to eat after taking a shower." The nanny paused and said, "I think Miss Ruan is in a really bad state. Would you like to come over and see her?"

"..."

Jiang Shixu's lips were stiff, and his voice was tired. "No, someone will take her home today."

"Oh, okay."

......

Chu Tang finished taking a shower and went downstairs.

The nanny brought the food to the table. "Ms. Ruan, these are your favorites. You didn't eat last night or this morning. You must be starving now. Eat more."

"Thank you." Chu Tang felt listless, his eyelids heavy, and he had a headache due to severe lack of sleep.

"Then you eat first, I'll go clean the kitchen."

Chu Tang looked at the table full of steaming and delicious food, but he had no appetite.

She drank two sips of soup, opened her phone and checked WeChat and text messages, but there was still no news from Jiang Shixu.

The nanny said that Jiang Shixu had instructed her to take good care of her and report any problems to him immediately.

Then he should know her condition now, right?

Why is there still no news?

Does he really not care anymore?

Chu Tang lowered his eyelashes, his eyes filled with bitterness.

......

Ruan family villa.

As soon as Chu Tang entered the room, Ruan Jiaojiao rushed over and said, "Sister, you are finally home! Jiaojiao missed you so much!"

Chu Tang pulled the corner of her mouth, reached out and touched her sister's head, "Sister is back to accompany you."

"Great." Ruan Jiaojiao smiled happily.

Yang Xuelian stood aside, looking worried, "Tangtang, are you okay?"

"I am fine."

Yang Xuelian didn't ask any more questions. "We cleaned your room every day while you were away. Come up and take a look."

"Ah."

"Sister, I'll go with you." Ruan Jiaojiao said crisply while holding Chu Tang's hand.

"Jiaojiao, I'm very tired and need to rest. Mommy will play with you downstairs, okay?" Yang Xuelian held Ruan Jiaojiao and said gently.

Ruan Jiaojiao pouted, her chubby face full of unhappiness, "No, sister hasn't been home for a long time, I want sister to play with me."

Yang Xuelian patiently said softly, "Be obedient Jiaojiao. Sister has gone home and you can see her anytime. Let her have a good rest first. Only when she has a good rest will she have the energy to play with you."

The little girl looked up at Ruan Chutang, her eyes pausing slightly, "Sister, why do you have dark circles under your eyes?"

Chu Tang was in a daze and said weakly, "I didn't sleep well."

After hearing what her sister said, Ruan Jiaojiao stopped pestering her and said sensibly, "Then sister, go to sleep first. You can play with me when you wake up."

"Be good, Jiaojiao."

Chu Tang had a splitting headache, his eyes were dry and sore, and his body was exhausted.

She went upstairs with light steps.
