The assistant tidied up the documents on the table and put them aside. He then went into the lounge and came back carrying a little boy. "President Huo, the child is already fast asleep. Should I carry him to the car?"
2"I'll do it. You should go and get the car keys. You've had a long day."
2Huo Nanchen carried the child in his arms. He looked peaceful in his sleep. Cheng Xi only furrowed his brows before his breathing quickly became long again.
2Ning Tangxi smiled. She pulled her hair behind her ears and looked at Huo Nanchen warmly. "It's already late. Aren't you going to drive me and Cheng Xi home?"
2"My assistant will drive you. You and the child will be safe."
2"That's good too." Ning Tangxi did not ask for anything else and followed him out of the office. She had lived in Country M ever since Cheng Xi was born. It had now been five years.
2Ning Tangxi still had some matters to attend to in Country M. However, her mother had hurriedly urged her to come back to the country a few days ago, so she and Cheng Xi made the trip earlier than she had planned.
2The Lamborghini was parked at the door. Huo Nanchen placed the child in the back seat. His assistant opened the car door for Ning Tangxi, and she sat beside the child.
2As soon as the car started moving, she glanced behind her and saw Huo Nanchen's figure walking away. His face showed no expression.
2When she left the country, Huo Nanchen was still single, but five years later, he was married to a twenty-year-old girl from an ordinary background.
2She sneered, and her smiling eyes gradually turned gray. He had recovered from his nightmare and was now indifferent towards her.
2How could this be?
"Miss Ning, where are you going? I'll set up the GPS," the assistant asked in a low voice.
2"Let's go to the Huasheng villa."
2If Huo Nanchen had accompanied her, she would have stayed at a private property under her name, with no outsiders disturbing her. But now, it was meaningless, so she chose to stay at her parents' house.
2"Okay."
2The Huasheng villa was in an affluent district in Nan Cheng. The assistant knew the area well.
2When Huo Nanchen returned to his office, he could still smell the strong scent of Ning Tangxi's perfume. It was very pungent, and it reminded him of his past.
2When he thought about it, he frowned, and a trace of disgust flashed across his eyes.
2He walked over to the window and opened it. Although it was late, he was not sleepy. All he wanted to do was go home and see the woman who made him sleep comfortably.
2He took his other car keys and left the office.
2After calling Huo Nanchen, Gu Ruochu's sleep had deserted her. She tossed and turned but she could not get any sleep. She decided to put on a shawl and went up to the balcony.
2She turned on her phone and wanted to call one of her friends, but she figured that it was late at night and almost everyone was asleep.
2She logged into her WeChat account, and, to her surprise, Xu Yichen was online.
2At that moment, Xu Yichen sent her a message. "Still awake?"
2"I woke up in the middle of the night. I couldn't sleep."
2Xu Yichen's phone beeped, and he received a message from one of his friends. It was about Ning Tangxi. His friend had seen her at the airport late in the night. Xu Yichen thought about it and decided not to tell Gu Ruochu. She was already in a bad mood.
2Gu Ruochu had also told him about her frequent nightmares.
2"Mmm, since you can't sleep, we should meet up. I'll take you for a ride."
2"A ride in the middle of the night? Is that appropriate?" Gu Ruochu's lips curled into a smile as recalled the memories she had made with her friends in the past. Back then, she was a free spirit.
