Nan Chu was stunned.

That's right, half a year has passed.

She would have such a big reaction just by hearing a date.

To outsiders, it's really weird.

But she couldn't forget that humiliating night anyway.

Qi Yi suddenly shook Nan Chu's hand.

Nan Chu was startled and wanted to take it back, but found that the other party's strength was amazing.

"Qi Yi—"

Qi Yi suddenly leaned forward slightly and hugged her.

"If it's an unpleasant memory, it's hard to forget it with time alone."

"You've never thought to forget—why don't you face it now?"

What was in Qi Yi's tone?

Distressed? Or encouragement?

Did he know what had happened that night?

Nan Chu pushed Qi Yi away and stood up.

"If you really know anything, please give me more information so that I can find that person for revenge sooner."

"Otherwise, don't bring it up in front of me."

"If nothing else, I'm going to work."

Nan Chu issued an eviction order.

I see.

Qi Yi smiled bitterly.

The man had said that he was destined to protect her.

But another fate in the dark, why did he send Nan Chu to Huo Xici's side again and again?

But...... Avenge?

Qi Yi walked out of the hospital, a smile on the corner of his mouth that was bound to win.

With Nan Chu's attitude, this matter is really poked out, and Huo Xici may not be able to please anything.

Before Horthy takes the initiative to confess, there is a lot to be done.

In just a few words, Nan Chu's heart was completely disturbed.

Qi Yi can find out, whether it means - Huo Xi can also resign.

She and Horthy are together, and sooner or later they will have to face this step.

It's better to confess now.

Whatever Horthy's reaction, she had a clear conscience.

Nan Chu made up his mind, slipped out of the hospital during the lunch break, and quietly entered the Huo family.

In the office, Huo Xici read the report while hurriedly eating fast food.

"Miss Nan—"

Tang Jing nodded towards Nan Chu, consciously left the office, and closed the door with his hand.

Nanchu was a little cramped.

It was an emotion she hadn't had in a long time.

For her, this is the deepest part of her heart, and she is unwilling to touch it no matter what.

When she told the secret, she seemed to have torn off all her disguises and stood naked in front of Horthy.

"I want to say - actually, the reason why I don't want to accept you is because something happened before I met you."

Nan Chu stated word by word everything that happened that day.

She is like a fish on a chopping board at the moment, voluntarily scraped off the scales of her body.

She had never been braver.

Nan Chu's subjective perspective describes it as a painful and humiliating experience.

Every word was like a sharp blade, stabbing into Huo Xici's heart.

He couldn't have been more wrong.

Before Nan Chu could even finish speaking, he was tightly embraced by Huo Xici.

"So what?"

The emotions contained in the man's tone are very complex, and the only thing that is unquestionable is firmness.

"Everything that happened until the night I confessed to you is not counted."

"I will spend the rest of my life protecting you from such a harm."

The concerns that have been there for a long time are finally no longer a problem.

At the same time of liberation, Nan Chu also has a sense of unreality.

It's all too idealistic.

Moreover, she always subconsciously felt that something was wrong.

The two of them stayed warm for a moment, and Nanchu still had doubts in his heart.

When Nan Chu was leaving, someone happened to knock on the door and report to Huo Xici.

Nan Chu took advantage of the situation and left.

However, before he could take a few steps, he heard a loud plea in the president's office.

Nan Chu turned back and stood outside the door.

The Minister of Finance cried so much that he almost knelt in front of Huo Xici.

"Mr. Huo, I just filled in a wrong number, and I didn't cause any loss to the company!"

Horthy glanced at him faintly.

Throw the file on the ground.

"Go out on your own, or, have someone ask you to go."

Tang Jing saw it and hurriedly pulled Nan Chu away.

"Miss Nan, don't sympathize with him, you know, we don't rub sand in Mr. Huo's eyes......"

Nan Chu walked out of the Huo clan in a daze, and Tang Jing's words were still in his ears.

That's right, not rubbing sand in his eyes is Huo Xici's character.

Whether she minded her past or not, he would definitely not let go of the person who maliciously took away Nan Chu's first time.

But just now, he didn't say a word.

Maybe it's because I'm afraid of waking up her bad memories.

Nan Chu can only explain it this way.

One can never deceive oneself subconsciously – especially Nanchu, who has lived two lifetimes.

She still sent the message to Ji Muzhou.

Huo Xici's behavior is suspicious, Qi Yi is good at fanning the flames, and only Ji Muzhou will not falsify the results.

She asked Ji Muzhou to find out who was in the nightclub that night.

As soon as Ji Muzhou started to investigate, Tang Jing received the news and reported it to Huo Xici.

"Drag it first."

Hossiqi couldn't make a choice.

The most correct thing to do is undoubtedly to inform Nan Chu of the truth.

However, he didn't want to take any risk of losing Nanchu – even one in 10,000.

Even in the face of tricky business decisions, he has never hesitated as he does now.

The difference is simply whether he can afford to make the wrong choice.

In front of the floor-to-ceiling windows on the top floor, Qi Yi flipped through the information in his hand page by page, and finally, threw it lightly on the ground.

The assistant behind him picked it up in fear.

"Mr. Qi......"

"Give this to Ji Muzhou, remember, you have to do it without leaving a trace."

In the evening, Nan Chu was studying the rules of the designer competition in the study when he suddenly received an email from work.

It was going to be sent to the king. Xing, take a closer look, it turned out to be sent by Qin Yuexi.

Qin's Group is about to launch a new project with a scale of nearly one billion.

I don't know for what reason, there will be a public tender in the imperial capital.

In order to maximize the profits, the Qin Group will first hold a bidding party and invite relevant people from the business community of the imperial capital to participate.

Even she received an invitation, and it is conceivable that Horthy quit there.

Nan Chu suddenly remembered what Qin Yuexi had said.

Proof, is this her proof?

Nan Chu leaned on Huo Xici's shoulder.

"Mr. Huo, would you like to-"

"What?"

"Tell me about your past."

Horthy turned his head suddenly, just in time for Shang Nanchu's clear eyes.

There was not only curiosity about the unknown in those eyes, but also a faint worry.

Nan Chu wanted to know if all this was true.

She wanted to judge from this whether Huo Xici had any mind because of what had happened before, and it was also true.

"Okay."

Huo Xici rubbed Nan Chu's head.

In fact, the past was not as complicated as Nan Chu imagined.

The Huo family and the Qin family are world friends, if the jokes at the wine table are taken seriously, Huo Xici and Qin Yuexi are barely baby relatives.

Huo Xici's temperament when he was a child was far less indifferent than it is now.

Qin Yuexi shouted another brother, and Huo Xici reluctantly allowed her to follow behind.
