Chương 405: It turned out that he had always known about chapter 409

Tác giả: Gu Rong Rong Dịch máy

Gu Ruochu stopped in her tracks after hearing his statement. He had already been to the hospital many times in the past few days. Although Gu Ruochu knew about his frequent visits, she had never brought up the matter.

It was just a hospital visit. Was there any need for him to be late for dinner?

"Is Ning Tangxi looking for you?" Gu Ruochu turned around and asked. Ning Tangxi had just called him, and Huo Nanchen had ignored her.

"Today is Cheng Xi's birthday."

Huo Nanchen walked around the office desk and looked at her. "Ruochu."

She was clearly unhappy. Competing with the child for his affection was not a bad thing. However, Gu Ruochu hated the fact that he would fail to keep his word. The previous day, he had promised to take her out for dinner.

"Are you going? Huo Nanchen, I allowed you to leave with Ning Tangxi last time. If I don't allow you to go this time, will you still go?"

"Ruochu, are you angry?"

Gu Ruochu did not wait for him to say another word before she turned around to leave. "Anyway, you can go. Your mother will be having dinner at home tonight. I'll have dinner with her."

Gu Ruochu did not want to show too much emotion, and she controlled her voice.

Huo Nanchen was about to say something when his phone rang again.

He frowned and picked up the call. Ning Tangxi's sobbing voice came through the other end. "Nanchen, come over quickly. Cheng Xi is running a high fever. Come over quickly..."

"What's going on?"

Ning Tangxi started crying. Gu Ruochu, who had stopped at the door when Huo Nanchen received the call, clearly heard the sobbing voice. "I don't know what to do. The family doctor said that Cheng Xi has tetanus, and it is causing the high fever."

"I'll be right there."

After hanging up the phone, he turned to look at Gu Ruochu, who was staring at him. Her furrowed brows gave her an icy aura.

"Ruochu..."

"Go ahead, the child must be very sick for her to cry like that."

"I'll be back early tonight and have Uncle Wang send you to the office. Hmm?" He reached out and stroked her hair.

Before leaving, Huo Nanchen turned to Lan Nuo and said, "I don't need you to tell me what to do. My meaning was clear."

Lan Nuo was stunned for a moment before she understood what he meant.

Initially, she had been worried that Huo Nanchen would regret dropping the case against Xu Yichen. After all, Cheng Xi had almost lost his arm because of him.

But now, Lan Nuo was convinced that he did not have a shred of hesitation.

Gu Ruochu stared at his back as he left. Suddenly, a desperate thought flashed across her mind.

'Huo Nanchen, I did not allow you to leave this time.

'Yet, you still left.'

She was still naive. Gu Ruochu had fallen for him after so many sweet moments, but she still didn't understand her true situation. At that moment, she wasn't upset. Perhaps it was because she had mentally prepared herself for the disappointment.

"Young Madam, I've just arrived from Xu Yichen's place." Lan Nuo stood at the door with a briefcase in her hand. She then took out a wristwatch from her bag. "This is the present he gave you for your birthday. "

'A birthday present?'

Gu Ruochu took it from her. Bai Qi had "died" before her birthday that year, but Xu Yichen had kept the present all this while. Gu Ruochu felt emotional when she thought of his touching gesture.

He had always cared about her.

She took the wristwatch and put it in her bag.

Gu Ruochu looked at Lan Nuo. "What's wrong with Huo Nanchen? He's even delaying his official business? It seems that Cheng Xi and Ning Tangxi's status in his heart should not be underestimated. Should I abdicate Miss Ning's position?"

Gu Ruochu had a sarcastic smile on her face. "Every time Miss Ning calls him, he runs over. It's quite a useful skill she has, isn't it? If you act coquettishly and cry softly, a man will always submit, right?"
