However, to them, such an ordinary life was just an extravagant hope.
This Sat.u.r.day, Wen Ruoshui had half a day off.
Nangong Lengyu had already made an appointment with her to visit a restaurant together. It was said that there was a delicious restaurant in the capital’s Chang’an District.
“Are you up?” Wen Ruoshui called for the morning service early.
“I’ll be there soon. Wait for me at home. I’ll drive over to pick you up.” Nangong Lengyu’s voice was hoa.r.s.e.
!!
“You’re still sleeping?” Wen Ruoshui sighed softly. She was the one who had asked her to visit the restaurant, but the person in question had not woken up yet at eight in the morning!
“I…”
Before Nangong Lengyu could explain, the door to her room was suddenly pushed open from the outside, revealing Huo Ci’s handsome face. He looked at her and said, “Pretty boy, I’m going to see my second brother. Be careful at home. If you’re afraid, don’t use the water heater. Go to the bathroom to take a shower.”
Nangong Lengyu gave him a strange look as though his b.u.t.t was on fire. She subconsciously asked, “What’s wrong with Second Brother?”
“He’s injured. I don’t have time to explain to you.” After saying that, Huo Ci closed the door and pushed it open. He reminded her, “Don’t tell Second Sister-in-law!”
Nangong Lengyu’s head exploded. She looked at the phone in her hand and was speechless. Could time be reversed?
Upon seeing her twisted expression and seeing that she was on the phone, Huo Ci forced out a sentence. “Second Sister-in-law?”
Nangong Lengyu nodded with a tragic expression. Yes, it was Second Sister-in-law!
“Yu’er, what happened? What happened to Brother Yan?” Wen Ruoshui asked anxiously.
What was Huo Ci talking about? What injury? She had just spoken to him last night. He had said that everything was fine.
“Shui Shui, calm down. You know that there’s something wrong with Huo Ci’s brain. He just had a dream and came over to tell me about it!” Nangong Lengyu made things up.
Huo Ci’s eyes blazed. There must be something wrong with this person’s brain. Is this how he talks about him in front of Second Sister-in-law every day? d.a.m.n pretty boy, let’s see how he will punish him!
Wen Ruoshui was already very anxious, but she was still patronizing her. Her eyes were red as she scolded, “Yu’er!”
Nangong Lengyu’s scalp went numb. Oh no, the other party was angry. She pa.s.sed the phone to Huo Ci and glared at him ferociously, telling him to speak.
Who knew that he would suddenly push the door open and talk to her about Second Brother? Wasn’t it a coincidence?
Huo Ci knew that he could not hide it anymore. Second Sister-in-law was such a smart person, how could he hide it? “Second Sister-in-law, it’s nothing serious. It’s just that Second Brother fell yesterday and suffered some light injuries. You know that I don’t want to go to cla.s.s, so I used this as an excuse to go to the south to have fun.”
“Huo Ci, tell me the truth.” Nangong Lengyu’s voice was serious.
Huo Ci was very calm. Dealing with such an emergency was a common occurrence for him. “I’m telling the truth. If you don’t believe me, I’ll pick you up immediately. Can you come with me to see Second Brother?”
Second Brother had really fallen and suffered some injuries, but they were only surface injuries.
Yu Bo called Big Brother and said that Second Brother suddenly fainted when he went up the mountain to inspect yesterday. He only woke up half an hour later. That was the most important thing.
Big Brother could not leave and was worried about Second Brother’s health, so he asked him to go over and take a look. He was afraid that his body had already issued an abnormal alarm.
“Okay, I’ll wait for you at home. Come and pick me up. Don’t tell your second brother that I’m going with you.” After saying that, Wen Ruoshui hung up.
She wanted to call Yan Yuanfei and ask him what was going on, but she knew very well that even if she asked, he would definitely not tell the truth. She could only go over and take a look personally.
It was the same for Yu Bo. He would not tell her the truth.
The two of them were not as good as Huo Ci. At the very least, they could get some information out of him. The master and servant duo were truly watertight no matter what they did.
Since Wen Ruoshui wanted to go with them, it was impossible for Nangong Lengyu not to go. She followed Huo Ci to fetch her.
“Shui Shui, don’t worry. You don’t know him. He just wants to go out and have fun. He’s using Second Brother as an excuse.” Nangong Lengyu gave Huo Ci a disdainful look. “Didn’t Uncle Huo lock him up for two days? He didn’t let him leave school. He’s suffocated.”
Huo Ci nodded. “Yes, I just want to go out and relax.”
When Wen Ruoshui heard the duo echoing each other, she became even more worried. What exactly had happened? She would believe it if they said that Huo Ci wanted to go out and have some fun after being grounded. However, with his personality, he would not use his brother as an excuse.
It would be very suspicious if the two of them were acting in front of her here.
“Why don’t I call Second Brother and get him to tell you personally?” Nangong Lengyu was about to make the call.
Wen Ruoshui frowned slightly. “If any of you tell him I’m coming in advance, don’t blame me for turning hostile.”
Nangong Lengyu wilted and nodded. “Okay, I won’t tell him. I’m on your side. I’ll always support you.”
Sigh!
She did not know what kind of fate they had.
She was entangled with Huo Ci, this shameless thing.
Shui Shui liked Second Brother, and there were rumors about Second Brother’s family. It was really worrying.
Huo Ci had said that Second Brother’s grandfather and father had been in good health when they were young. However, one day, their bodies suddenly became abnormal. After that, they became worse and worse. In the end, they did not last long.
She was also very afraid that such a thing would happen to Second Brother.
Huo Ci and the others must be afraid too. That was why he had rushed over to take a look when he had heard that something was amiss.
The plane flew from the capital to R City in the south. They had to drive on the mountain road to reach Yan Yuanfei’s mountain area.
Huo Ci drove on the winding mountain road. The road was made of the most primitive mud, which was b.u.mpy and difficult to walk on. However, he was skilled. Even an old driver who was familiar with the road would take four hours to drive. He reached the place in three hours.
When they arrived, the staff said that Yan Yuanfei had gone up the mountain with the engineers early in the morning to look at the terrain. He would probably only be back in the evening.
“Second Sister-in-law, I told you he’s really fine. I just felt terrible holding it in and wanted to come out for a breather.” Huo Ci smiled at Wen Ruoshui. “Look, Second Brother has already left with the engineer. What can happen? You’re just overthinking.”
Second Brother had already instructed him not to say anything to scare Second Sister-in-law, especially about his health.
Before Second Brother left, Second Sister-in-law had given him a comprehensive physical examination. The brothers knew this. The data showed that there was no problem, but Second Brother’s body issues could not be detected by those medical machines.
