Chapter 1193 - 1196: Feeling Heavier and Heavier in the Heart...
She waited for a full half-month, and today, Bai Wuqing suddenly told her eight words: "No heartbeat detected, life or death unknown."
At that moment, Chenxing didn’t know why, but she started to laugh, "Brother Wuqing, this joke of yours is not funny at all."
"Chenxing, I’m not joking with you, Huanhuan is leaving too, you two can keep each other company."
There was still no significant change on Chenxing’s face, she just shook her head, "No, Brother Wuqing, please don’t joke with me like this, okay? I’m not leaving, this is Shaocheng and my home. Before he left, he told me to wait for his return and not to run around. Besides his words, I won’t listen to anyone else. If you want me to leave, let Shaocheng come and tell me himself!"
"And he’s just temporarily out of contact, doesn’t he often take a business trip for a month or two? It’s only been half a month now, don’t try to scare me with talk of life or death. That’s really not funny. Also, I need to rest now, please leave."
Saying that, she covered her head with the quilt, like a turtle retracting into its shell, hiding under the covers, refusing to see Bai Wuqing or accept anything he said.
In another villa.
Huanhuan was angrily scolding on the phone, "Nan Baihao, are you out of your mind? You’re telling me to leave? Leave to where? I’m living just fine and you’re telling me to leave? I’ll tell you, you can get lost!"
"No, Huanhuan, listen to me, Big Brother is missing, I don’t know what might happen. You need to get on a plane now and leave with Chenxing, stay somewhere safe. If nothing happens, I’ll bring you back, but if something does happen, I need you to protect Wubai. Listen!"
"Don’t talk to me about this nonsense, I don’t want to hear it. You want me to get on a plane unless you put a knife to my throat!" Huanhuan finished speaking, tossed her phone to the ground with a thud, quickly picked up Wubai, then hurried to the Gu Family, found Chenxing, and at that time, Wuqing was still trying to persuade them. Huanhuan held Wubai and drove Wuqing away, leaving the two women sitting on the bed.
"Chenxing, are you leaving?"
Chenxing shook her head steadily, "I’m not leaving, I want to wait for Shaocheng to come home."
"Mm, I won’t leave either." Huanhuan noticed Chenxing looked very unwell. She placed Wubai on the bed, pulled Chenxing aside, and talked, "Can you reach Big Brother Gu? Baihao said he couldn’t reach Big Brother Gu, what’s he doing? How long has it been since you got in touch with Big Brother Gu?"
Chenxing didn’t know how to respond. She regretted, thinking if she hadn’t brought up that topic, Shaocheng might not have left, and if he hadn’t left, he wouldn’t have gone missing.
"After he went to America, he was still messaging me and texting me for the first couple of days, but on the fifth day, he stopped responding when I tried to contact him again. Now when I try to call him, it says his phone is off. From day five to today, day fifteen, his phone has been off for a full ten days. I really can’t figure out, even if his phone ran out of battery, it couldn’t possibly be dead for a full ten days without charging." Even if she was unwilling to admit the eight words Brother Wuqing said, she couldn’t help but acknowledge them!
In these ten days, at first, she wasn’t worried, just a bit annoyed at him for not coming home on time. As time went on, the annoyance faded, leaving only worry, a hollow feeling. She couldn’t understand why he wasn’t contacting her, even questioning if he was again in a huff and ignoring her, pondering if she said or did something wrong, but she hadn’t... These past few days have been increasingly worrying, unable to eat or sleep, with a growing heaviness in her heart...
