"Although we all knew that he had nothing to do with it, there was not enough evidence to prove that he was directly involved in the kidnapping case, and we had to release him due to pressure from above."

Xing Ju said this with a little embarrassment, Xiao Xubai clenched his mobile phone tightly with his fingertips, thanked him after being silent for a long time, and then hung up the phone.

As a veteran enterprise that has been entrenched in the real estate market of City B for many years, it naturally has its own network of contacts, but she didn't expect Li Chen to be so powerful that she could buy the people of the Provincial Public Security Department.

Every day, except for infusion injections, Gu Nanfeng just lies quietly on the bed in a daze, like a porcelain doll that can't speak, and sometimes sits up and reads a book, but Xiao Xubai carefully observed, the book in her hand has never been turned after a page or two.

It's not that she's in a hurry for her state, everything that can be pushed to others is pushed to others, and she eats three meals a day with her in the hospital.

"Good morning, south wind" The door was pushed open, Xiao Xubai came in with a bouquet of delicate roses, replaced yesterday's flowers in the vase, changed the water again, and put it at the head of her bed.

This kind of thing is tirelessly done every day, Gu Nanfeng stood up from the bed, and there was a faint smile on his lips.

"Early"

"Are you feeling sick today?" Xiao Xubai put his hand on her forehead, she shrank back, and since then she has been reluctant to have too much physical contact with people, and the same is true for her.

Xiao Xubai's eyes darkened, and she rubbed her hair instead, "I asked Aunt Li to boil your favorite milk oatmeal porridge and drink more."

Gu Nanfeng nodded, and when he wanted to do it himself, the person had already picked up the bowl and sat sideways at the head of the bed, "I'll feed you, open your mouth"

Although the tone was gentle, there was still a hint of non-rejection, Gu Nanfeng had no choice but to obediently accept her overtures, "Have you eaten it?" ”

"No, there is a shareholders' meeting today, I have to go to the company in advance to prepare"

Gu Nanfeng pushed back the spoon she had brought to his lips, "You eat too"

"Okay, I really can't help you" Xiao Xubai had no choice but to swallow it by herself before continuing to feed her.

It is not very convenient for her injured hand to move, and she is reluctant to contact others, even the nurse will feel very uneasy when she changes the dressing, Xiao Xubai sees the pain in her eyes and heart, and the movements of her hand are even more cautious.

She had never been so gentle, as if she were dealing with a lost and recovered treasure, and her seriousness was more serious than that of work, and the surprise of every morning, although she liked lilies more, but she also loved the romance of roses.

"Xubai, I want to go home" has insomnia every night in the hospital, wakes up from nightmares, and still loses a lot of weight even though he eats and drinks well.

Xiao Xubai's hand holding the spoon paused, raised his eyes and smiled at her, "Wait for the gauze in your hand to be removed and go home, okay?" ”

Afraid that she would be stimulated by the outside again, the TV in the ward had already been turned off, and the mobile phone was confiscated on the grounds that she had poor eyesight during her recuperation, and even Fu Lin wanted to come to visit and was turned away, although going home was beneficial to her condition, but it also meant that it was possible to stand on the cusp again, after all, the paparazzi were everywhere.

"Okay" looked at the tightly wrapped claws he had wrapped, Gu Nanfeng still pursed his lips and nodded.

Not long after she left, before she had turned a page of the book in her hand, the door was suddenly pushed open, and she jerked her head, and then her whole body trembled uncontrollably.

Xiao Minsheng appeared at the door with a few people, Xiao Gao didn't know where she went, she shrank and looked desperately out of the door, there was only an empty corridor.

Xiao Minsheng motioned for them to close the door, sat down with his secretary, snapped his fingers, and the person behind him immediately handed over a check and put it at the head of her bed.

"This is a little thank you for saving Xiao Qi, please accept it"

His gentle and polite attitude made Gu Nanfeng uneasy, "You...... You're so polite...... She is also my student......"

"Your lover is also my daughter" He suddenly mentioned that Xiao Xubai made Gu Nanfeng feel at a loss, and he couldn't tell what he meant, his fingers tightened the sheet under him, and he didn't know whether to answer or not.

"Pity the hearts of parents in the world, her brother died in a car accident many years ago, leaving Xiao Qi, the Xiao family is not prosperous, and she is the only child in the family, I still expect me to carry forward the Xiao family after a hundred years, but do you know?" Xiao Minsheng suddenly paused and stared at her coldly, without a trace of warmth in his eyes, which made Gu Nanfeng feel like falling into an ice cave.

"She is now arguing with the shareholders on the board of directors for you, as if she has become the target of public criticism, she interrupted half of the engagement ceremony for you, and now there is everything outside, saying that she is indiscreet, loves women and hooks up with men, cheats on people's feelings and sends people to prison......"

Gu Nanfeng's face became more and more ugly, his eyes gradually turned red, and he held back his tears, he didn't know what else he was talking about, and the fingertips that were clutching the sheet tightly were already white.

"I don't know what your parents think, but I don't think this situation is the consequence that any parent wants to see, although you are also very good, but she is not what you climbed, you can play, if you are serious, I still advise you to leave her as soon as possible"

His expression was not stern, but it was such a reasonable and well-founded expression, but it made Gu Nanfeng unable to say a word of rebuttal, and his eyes slowly turned red in this silence, and he could no longer hold back the tears that came out of his eyes.

"I know you love her very much, but you are still young and have more choices, she is not small and has not yet experienced the happiness of getting married and having children and becoming a parent, she has stood on the cusp of public opinion and blocked a qiē for you, have you ever thought that if you are together, if she is critically ill, you don't even have the right to sign the critical illness notice, one day you will all understand that love is not the whole of life, and finding a suitable person is the most correct choice"

As an old entrepreneur who has created countless myths in the industry for many years in the shopping mall, he naturally knows how to break through her psychological defense, not to mention that the current Gu Nanfeng is fundamentally vulnerable.

"You...... You can rest assured...... I will...... Leave her...... Merely...... Give me a little more time......" Every word she spat out seemed to be Ling Chi, and the pain spread from her heart to her limbs, almost making her unable to breathe.

Xiao Minsheng nodded, and motioned to his subordinates to put another check on her bedside, "I read that right, you are a good boy, then thank you for understanding the hearts of parents all over the world, there are almost 10 million here, enough for you to spend the rest of your life carefree"

After he left, Gu Nanfeng sat quietly alone for a long time, the sky gradually darkened, it seemed that it was going to rain, it was so humid and stuffy that it was almost breathless, she came back to her senses and wanted to touch the glass placed at the head of the bed to drink water, but she was caught off guard and her eyes were dark, and she was no longer conscious.

"How so?! When I left, everyone was fine, and in the blink of an eye, you told me that she fainted?! ”

Halfway through the shareholders' meeting, Xiao Xubai began to be furious after answering a phone call, and directly slammed Wen Jiàn on the table, and everyone looked at each other in silence.

There was a faint whisper from below, "It seems that today's meeting will not be held."

"What's going on?"

"I guess it's Mr. Xiao's girlfriend who has an accident again"

"I can't see it, she'......"

After a few deep breaths in a row, Xiao Xubai barely suppressed her chaotic thoughts, because the anxious emotions made the already prepared rhetoric a mess, and her views were refuted again and again, and in the end, she had to end the meeting early with a fire in her belly.

When he arrived at the hospital, Gu Nanfeng had already woken up, Xiao Gao stood cramped and restless on the side, and immediately gave up his position when he saw her coming.

"What's going on?" She hurried over and had a thin layer of sweat on her forehead, Xiao Gao wanted to speak and stopped, Gu Nanfeng smiled weakly.

"It's okay...... Having nightmares was scared...... Wake up and want to get out of bed and take a walk...... Probably hypoglycemia is guilty of ......"

"Didn't you say that you should look at her every step of the way!" Xiao Xubai immediately turned the spearhead to Xiao Gao, Xiao Gao blushed, not knowing how to explain, although she was loyal to Xiao Xubai, she had to do so under the pressure of Xiao Minsheng, and the guilt almost overwhelmed her.

"Xu Bai, I have something to say to you alone" Gu Nanfeng relieved her, Xiao Gao showed a look of gratitude, and turned around to cover the door for them.

"What's wrong?" As soon as she sat down on the edge of the bed, the man rubbed over and grabbed one of her fingers and shook it.

"I want to go home" She rarely expresses closeness to herself, especially after being injured, and this slightly coquettish tone almost flatters her.

Her face was pale but her eyes were dark and translucent, and when she didn't speak, she was gentle and quiet, but when she faced her, she was always covered with a layer of fog, like the eyes of some kind of small animal, such as an egg tart.

How can she refuse her like this, Xiao Xubai nodded, and carefully wrapped the person on his knees, Gu Nanfeng still tensed up, and only relaxed after a while.

"Okay, but I'm going to ask the doctor first if you can be discharged from the hospital in your current physical condition, after all, you fainted today"

Gu Nanfeng gently closed her eyes, enjoying a moment of tranquility, and buried her head in her neck socket, her tone so light that she could barely hear it.

"Xubai, I want to give you a baby"

If...... If she were a boy, or if she was a boy, would she not have so many obstacles, and she would not be hurt by secular prejudice and gossip, one of them is calm and wise, and the other is gentle and kind, and it can probably be regarded as a match made in heaven.

It's just that...... It's just that the person I like, she happens to be a girl.

"Have you figured it out?" Xiao Xubai didn't take this sentence as a joke, but caressed her back again and again, and his voice was low and beautiful.

"I have a bad temper and I don't treat you well enough, I'm very busy at work, I don't have time to take care of my family, and if I have children, you have to be a stay-at-home wife......"

She was still babbling, Gu Nanfeng had already interrupted her, "Will you be as good as you are to Qiqi?" ”

Xiao Xubai pulled the person out of his arms, stared at her and said word by word: "If it was born to you, I would treat her better than Qiqi"

Gu Nanfeng bent the corners of his lips and retracted into her arms again, "I believe you"

Before deciding to take her to the United States, Xiao Xubai consulted the doctor in detail, and the answer was that staying away from the current environment might be better for her condition, and if she had a baby, it would also divert part of her attention, after all, this is a woman's happiest process.

After some careful consideration, she temporarily put down all the work at hand, including the acquisition of equity, I have to say that Xiao Minsheng is a veteran of the shopping mall after all, and he is bloodless without moving, and Xiao Xubai is obviously a little less speculative and far-sighted than him.

Until he got on the plane, Gu Nanfeng still couldn't come back to his senses, "Where are you going?" ”

Xiao Xubai beckoned the flight attendant to bring a blanket over and cover her, "Go where you want to go"

Gu Nanfeng's eyes were faintly excited, and sure enough, it was right to bring her out, Xiao Xubai also had a smile on her lips, and pulled up the blindfold for her.

"It's still early, get some sleep"

――The dividing line of memory―

When she broke free from her memories, the pillow towel was mostly wet, Gu Nanfeng opened her eyes blankly, and it took a while to get used to the dim light, she got up from the bed and opened the curtains, it was already dusk outside, the patio was sprinkled with chaotic light and shadow, someone was reading quietly under the tree, half of her face was bathed in the western sun, looking soft and warm.

Xiao Xubai obviously also discovered her storage, put down the book and waved at her, "Come down and eat when you wake up"

Gu Nanfeng nodded, closed the curtains and went to the bathroom to wash, the mobile phone on the washstand suddenly vibrate, she looked at the flashing name, and was stunned for a long time before picking it up.

"How about it, this holiday is good, I just said that if you go out, how can you use the means, with a look, she would like to hold the whole world in front of you" Fang Roujiao smiled, Gu Nanfeng reached out and turned off the faucet, her tone was flat.

"What the hell do you want?"

"In the past, she hurt you so much, didn't you think about revenge, but now she has a heart all over you, isn't this a golden opportunity?"

Gu Nanfeng curled the corners of his lips slightly and smiled, "People like you who haven't loved will not understand what love is."

"Gu Nanfeng, you!" Fang Rou became excited, and wanted to say something, but she had already hung up the phone, and only a beeping sound came from the earpiece.

Many details of getting along in the past came to mind, Xiao Xubai didn't love her, but even if she no longer loved her, she couldn't hurt her, which was probably the biggest difference between them.

"I want to go back early, and I don't know if grandma's situation is better."

Xiao Xubai's hand was stagnant, the original plan was for three days, and there were still many places where she hadn't been taken to play, although she was disappointed, she still nodded.

"Okay, then we'll leave after dinner"

When I arrived in H City, it was already late at night, and after going to the hospital to see my grandmother, Gu Nanfeng insisted on taking a taxi home, Xiao Xubai was more stubborn than her, and confronted each other on the road for a long time, and finally pursed her lips and sat in the car.

She was still in good spirits after driving the car for half the night, Qi Qi was sleeping in the back seat, she turned her head sideways and whispered to her, "Actually, there are many interesting attractions around H City, it is perfect to go to escape the heat in summer, I will take you there next time I have the opportunity"

After coming back, I had to fly to City B immediately to prepare for the listing, it is estimated that I will have to hang for a few days, and I won't see her for a while, Xiao Xubai's eyes are firmly glued to her, and she is reluctant to miss her every look and every word.

Gu Nanfeng turned his head to look out the window, his gaze was too hot, and his face was a little unnatural, "Look at the road"

Xiao Xubai coughed twice, came back to his senses and continued to hit the steering wheel smoothly and got off the high speed.

"Didn't you say that H City was a backcountry place where birds don't"

I didn't expect this person to tease her, Xiao Xubai's face was a little red, but he still tilted his head and said seriously: "Haven't you heard that my heart is home?"

Her voice was always low and beautiful, but now it was even softer, and the sentences like confessions made Gu Nanfeng silent, and the ambiguous atmosphere began to heat up in the carriage.

In her reluctance to get in the car or to the downstairs of the community, as soon as it stopped, Gu Nanfeng pushed open the car door, Xiao Xubai thought she was angry and quickly raised her heels, but when she walked to the staircase, she was suddenly startled by a black shadow and took a few steps back, fortunately, Xiao Xubai helped her and pulled the person behind her

"Who?!"

A figure slowly stood up from the ground, tall and tall, wearing a jacket and jeans, and Gu Nanfeng finally saw the person clearly by the dim light, "Ye Qiu, why are you here?" ”
