Chapter 517: Chapter 521 began to investigate Ning Tangxi

Author: Gu Rong Rong Machine Translation

When Huo Nanchen heard Gu Ruochu's reconciliatory tone, his nerves were no longer as tense as before. He placed the magazine in his hand on the bedside table and lay a little closer to her as he spoke calmly.

"I've recently found out about Yue Cheng's whereabouts."

Huo Nanchen had told Gu Ruochu about his oath to Yue Cheng.

Earlier on, Huo Nanchen had told her that Yue Cheng had sacrificed his life for his sake.

Gu Ruochu turned around and raised her eyes to look at him. Huo Nanchen's breath spread across her face, but she did not avoid it.

"Isn't he dead? Or are you working together with Ning Tangxi to deceive me?"

"We thought he was dead. Before he died, he was disfigured and washed away by the river," Huo Nanchen calmly recounted. His relationship with Yue Cheng still haunted him.

However, when Huo Nanchen heard that Yue Cheng was still alive, he was hopeful that he would escape from his long nightmare.

"Later on, I found out that he had been seen in Nan Cheng. Someone must have saved him and nursed him back to health. We don't know why he did not come back to his family and friends after he was rescued."

Huo Nanchen stretched out his arm and pulled Gu Ruochu into his embrace. His gentle voice rang out. "Ruochu, if I find Yue Cheng, I will leave the matter of Ning Tangxi and Cheng Xi to him completely. When that time comes, promise me that you won't mention the divorce anymore, and you won't go out with other men casually."

Huo Nanchen knew that Yue Cheng was his only hope of saving his relationship with Gu Ruochu.

On her part, Gu Ruochu felt that Huo Nanchen's request was fair.

"Since you've made your case, I'll wait until you've found Yue Cheng."

Gu Ruochu's meaning was clear. Once Huo Nanchen found Yue Cheng, he would hand over his responsibility for Ning Tangxi and Cheng Xi. Once he did that, their problems would be settled.

The dark clouds in Huo Nanchen's heart gradually dispelled. He closed his eyes, and the muscles in his body relaxed. His hand gently stroked Gu Ruochu's back as he said in a hoarse voice, "All right. Don't mention anything about divorce during this period. Don't provoke me either."

Gu Ruochu nodded in agreement. She had no intention of having a meal with Gu Zexi anyway.

It would be best if they got along in the short-term before they found a lasting solution.

Everything now depended on Huo Nanchen finding Yue Cheng and making sure that he took responsibility for Cheng Xi and Ning Tangxi.

"..."

The next day, Gu Ruochu drove to the Rong family's villa to get an update on Xu Yichen's condition from Rong Xiao.

Granny Li eventually answered the door after Gu Ruochu knocked on it several times.

"Oh, it's you, little girl. Come in quickly."

"Granny." When Gu Ruochu walked in, she saw that Rong Xiao was still wearing his pajamas and was sitting on the sofa. He yawned lazily. "I've been waiting for you for a long time. Quick, say a few words to Yichen."

Rong Xiao had encrypted his phone to make it impossible for anyone to trace Xu Yichen's location.

Ning Tangxi and Huo Nanchen could not find out about Xu Yichen's whereabouts, even if they hacked Rong Xiao's conversation records.

Gu Ruochu felt relieved when she saw Xu Yichen in the video call. Although he appeared to have lost some weight, he was in a good mood.

Xu Yichen knew that Gu Ruochu was worried about him. He threw a gentle smile at her and said, "Don't worry. I don't even have a job here. My living environment is good, and I feel like I'm on vacation. I've never had such a comfortable life."

Gu Ruochu was sure that Xu Yichen wouldn't complain about his exile. Even though she missed him, she was happy that he was safe from Huo Nanchen and Ning Tangxi's clutches.

"Yichen, tell me honestly. How did you bump into Ning Tangxi and Cheng Xi after you hit Zhou Yunxi with your car?"
