Chapter 817: Very Worried About Her


Editor: Henyee Translations


After Murong Chen received the information from his Little Sister, he drove straight back to An Nuo’s residence.


This time, he was glad that the two of them were neighbors, so Murong Chen was especially familiar with the route. It didn’t take much effort for him to go all the way.


He followed the direction of home and walked towards the corridor. Murong


Chen took a look and realized that An Nuo’s door was locked.


He originally wanted to go and knock on the door to see if the other party was around, but he felt that he had returned in a hurry and was travel-worn. In the end, he frowned and returned to his room to change his clothes.


When he was changing, he also took out the things in his pocket. Looking at the pair of earrings he had bought at the mall just now, he hesitated for a moment before holding them in his hand. He placed them in his coat pocket and brought them over.


The knock on the door was rather stark. It sounded in the quiet afternoon.


Usually, An Nuo’s and Murong Chen’s house would be empty at this time, but today’s situation was special. Both of them were home.


An Nuo was a little hesitant and thought that she was hallucinating. She looked at the gate uncertainly and heard two more polite and restrained knocks.


Only one person had the style of this voice. She recognized the other party almost immediately.


She jogged to the door with antic.i.p.ation and uncertainty. Through the peephole, she saw Murong Chen standing outside the door in a casual outfit.


After confirming that it was the other party, she immediately opened the door so quickly that she almost pounced out. Fortunately, she barely stabilized her deep feelings and didn’t embarra.s.s herself in front of the other party.


“W-Why are you here?” Because of her nervousness, An Nuo even stuttered when she spoke.


When the door opened, Murong Chen heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. Then, he vaguely looked at her. After seeing that there was nothing wrong with her, he smiled.


“There seems to be a power outage at my house. Do you mind if I stay with you


for a while?”


Murong Chen casually chose a lame excuse.


As An Nuo was still a little depressed at this moment, she didn’t think much about the unreasonability contained in these words.


Not to mention that it was Murong Chen who said this. She nodded at him and turned her body to give the other party a way in.


It was evening now. Murong Chen changed into a pair of disposable slippers at the door and entered. When he went in, he could see the beautiful scenery outside through the long windows.


The dazzling and romantic colors almost filled one’s vision. The orange-yellow light sank into the beautiful dusk with the fiery red sunset, making one fall into a daze just by looking at it. He felt dazzled and couldn’t turn his eyes.


“Y-you, do you want to drink something?”


An Nuo didn’t expect the other party to suddenly visit at this time, so she was a little at a loss.


Especially since she had just caused some trouble because of the photo, she was still thinking if it would implicate the other party. In the end, the other party had appeared in front of her. An Nuo immediately felt guilty and an almost imperceptible embarra.s.sment.


After saying that, she suddenly realized that there was nothing to eat at home and frowned in frustration. “Or if there’s anything you want to eat…”


It should be possible to order takeout, right?


An Nuo’s gaze quietly shifted to her cell phone at the side as she thought uncertainly.


“Just a gla.s.s of water will do.” Murong Chen didn’t ask for much.


When he came, he only wanted to confirm An Nuo’s condition.


However, now that he had met her and felt that she was in a good mental state, Murong Chen didn’t take the initiative to mention the things on the Internet and make her unhappy again.


After hearing Murong Chen’s request, An Nuo immediately turned around and prepared to go to the kitchen to pour a gla.s.s of water.


However, at this moment, her phone suddenly rang. An Nuo picked up the cell phone and went into the kitchen with it. Then, she unlocked it with her fingerprints and took a look before realizing that it was a call from her mother.


Could it be that she had seen those things on the Internet…


An Nuo thought about it and picked up the call, putting it to her ear.


“Mom-why did you suddenly think of calling me?” As soon as she picked up the call, An Nuo’s tone immediately softened and became much lighter.


She was an actress, so it was only an instant for her to adjust her emotions. An Nuo didn’t want her mother to worry about her too much, so she tried her best to pretend to be relaxed.


Jiang Xia called because she had something to say. “I saw many people talking bad about my daughter on the Internet. I definitely have to call to ask about her.”


Unlike the restrained emotions of An Nuo and An Xinzhi, Jiang Xia was exactly the opposite.


Most of the time, she would express her emotions and worries very bluntly, making An Nuo’s heart warm.


“It’s nothing, Mom.” An Nuo softened her voice. This time, she really smiled, not wanting the other party to worry about her.


She spoke as she washed the cups. “Those people on the Internet are spreading rumors at the drop of a hat. You don’t have to worry about these things. I’ll handle it.”


“As long as I hear that you’re fine.” It was unknown if Jiang Xia was really relieved, but she didn’t mention this matter anymore.


“But how’s the boy I told you about before? You didn’t tell me about him after that meal. Don’t you like him?”


Jiang Xia changed to ask about something else, but she didn’t know that this question was p.r.i.c.king her daughter’s heart.


An Nuo recalled the matter of the other party appearing as soon as she left the production team and frowned slightly.


“I’m not in a hurry…” She vaguely explained before immediately changing the topic. “On the other hand, how have you and father been recently? It’s my fault for not coming home recently.”


“Speaking of your father. A few days ago, when he was discussing business, he drank a lot. His liver has never been very good. I’ve told him many times…” There was no parent who didn’t want to talk to their children about their daily lives. They just lacked the opportunity and time to talk.


When she heard An Nuo change the topic, Jiang Xia understood that she didn’t want to talk about it anymore, so she told her daughter about her daily life.


As she spoke, An Nuo became engrossed in her words, so she instantly forgot that she still had the cup in her hand. In the end, her body subconsciously let go, and the cup stained with detergent fell to the ground.


The gla.s.s shattered into countless pieces. At that moment, the crisp sound was enough for Murong Chen, who was sitting in the living room, to hear.


He was still worried about An Nuo just now. Not long after, he heard the sound of something shattering. Without thinking, Murong Chen stood up and walked towards the kitchen.


When An Nuo saw the cup shatter on the ground, she subconsciously wanted to reach out to pick it up. However, before her hand could touch the fragment, someone grabbed her wrist first.


“Don’t touch this. It will cut your hand.” Murong Chen pulled her up without another word. “I’ll help you deal with these fragments.


“I’m sorry—” An Nuo subconsciously apologized.


She was so engrossed in the phone conversation just now that she forgot that she was washing cups. This time, she really made a mistake.


Murong Chen didn’t care if he could really drink the water. But it was a big deal for An Nuo to be hurt.


Their conversation was transmitted to the other end through the phone. Jiang Xia was still listening..
