After He Jingyan left, Xu Nuannuan entered the room. She heard what He Jingyan had said.
“What about Yangyi? Do you plan to let Yangyi follow him to Country T?”
She went up to Gong Cheng. She did not sit, and instead she looked at him coldly.
“Yangyi has to go. He needs to familiarize himself with Country T so he would know how to deal with it.”
Gong Cheng said firmly, but with a trace of irritation, as he was worried that his plan might not work.
“What about Father? When are you going to tell him? You can’t wrap fire with paper. He will get suspicious one day.”
Just now her father seemed to know something. She guessed he was waiting for Gong Cheng to tell him.
Gong Cheng turned grave at the mention of Xu Jing. “This will be a big blow to him. I’ll explain it to him later, but now is not the time.”
Xu Nuannuan was unruffled, thinking Xu Jing didn’t need to know everything.
“Use that medicine on Yangyi now so we can erase his memory of the past few days. I don’t want him to know too much and ruin our plan, “Xu Nuannuan said coldly.
Gong Cheng smiled.
“Did I say something wrong? What’s so funny?” She frowned immediately.
“You must be misunderstood by any other people who heard your words, but I know that you do so not because you are afraid that he will ruin our plan, but because you fear he can’t take the pain and thus become indifferent to anything, right?”
Gong Cheng thought Xu Nuannuan’s bark was worse than her bite. She would never speak out of her mind, making people think she was a bad person.
“When Yangyi wakes up, have a good talk with him. Don’t be so cold. You’ll scare him.” Gong Cheng stood up and stroked her head, smiling.
If someone else had done this to her, Xu Nuannuan would have shot him, but at this moment, she stood quietly without slapping away Gong Cheng’s hand or getting angry.
After a while, she said, “He’s scared anyway. It doesn’t make any difference.” She said in a calm voice, as if she didn’t care. In fact she minded what Yangyi thought of her, but she didn’t show that.
“I know what you are thinking. You must feel regretful. Remember to apologize to Yangyi when he wakes up.” He stroked her head again and left.
Xu Nuannuan looked down and muttered sullenly, “Got it, Damn Uncle.”
She felt shy.
“I heard you.”
Gong Cheng smiled without saying anything else. He walked out of the room and bumped into Xu Jing at the door.
Gong Cheng was shocked. He was afraid that Xu Jing had heard the conversation just now.
“Why are you here?”
Xu Jing didn’t reply immediately. He looked inside and took a glance at Xu Nuannuan, smiling. “He Jingyan says that he is taking Yangyi back to the unit, so I come to tell you.”
He looked as if he did not hear the conversation, so Gong Cheng breathed a sigh of relief.
“Yangyi is his wife now. It’s up to him, and we won’t interfere.”
He habitually touched Xu Jing’s cheek to soothe him.
Xu Jing nodded slightly with a grave look, which was not noticed by Gong Cheng.
