Chapter 1449: I Miss You
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Now, the Nangong family had once again formed a relationship with the Chi family. After what happened during the New Year’s greetings that day, everyone was certain that the Chi family was completely on the Nangong family’s side. If the engagement between the two families was not annulled, there would be no chance that the Chi family would support the Shi family.
In other words, Leng Jinpeng was a stumbling block.
However, what was infuriating was that Leng Jinpeng was from the Chi family, so they could not touch him yet.
The atmosphere in the Shi family had been cold since the start of the year.
Leng Jinpeng was the final straw—it shattered the Shi family’s calm before the storm.
In a month, Feng Shengxuan was discharged from the hospital. Under Nangong Nuannuan’s care, his condition miraculously stabilized without going through any chemotherapy.
The Hong family had declared bankruptcy. Although the Bian family did not end up getting bankrupt, they could never return to their former glory as a third-tier wealthy family. They could only shift their belongings gloomily to another city, hoping to seek more development there.
As for Hong Feixu and Bian Yin, Nangong Nuannuan had no way of knowing what happened to them.
On this day, Nangong Nuannuan was preparing to go home to treat Feng Shengxuan and Second Uncle after observing a brain surgery at the hospital. On the way home, her phone suddenly rang in the car.
Looking at the caller ID, Nuannuan almost jumped with joy.
She quickly picked up the phone and shouted happily, “Big Brother Chi Yang!”
Chi Yang’s deep voice that rang like metal clangs came from the other side of the phone.
“Little Girl, did you miss me?”
“Yes! Yes, yes!” Nuannuan nodded vigorously. Even though she knew Chi Yang could not see her, she nodded with all her might. Her eyes curved into cresent moons in joy.
On the other end of the phone, the coldness in Chi Yang’s bloodshot eyes mellowed a little when he heard that. Even the blood vessels that protruded from his eyeballs did not look so terrifying anymore.
From his wife’s voice, he could tell what her expression was.
Just by hearing her repeated ‘yes’, Chi Yang was convinced that the little girl must have nodded her head foolishly on the other end of the phone. Her big, watery eyes must be curved into crescents in an instant as all the light from the stars in the universe gathered in them. She would be as beautiful as the moon in a dark, lively night; like the first ray of sunlight on a winter morning but more nurturing than the moon and more dazzling than the sun.
“I miss you too. Very much!” Chi Yang did not hide the dumbfounded expression on the soldier’s face as he openly expressed his longing.
After not seeing her for a month, he missed her so much. He missed her so much that he could not sleep at night, and his chest felt tight.
When he finally had a chance to return to the headquarters, the first thing Chi Yang did was call Nuannuan. He could not bear to wait a second longer.
Chi Yang’s words made Nuannuan fall silent on the other end of the phone for a few seconds. Then, she said pitifully, “Big Brother Chi Yang, I miss you very, very much.”
At that moment, Chi Yang’s gaze had softened completely. Listening to the soft and gentle voice coming from the other end of the phone, his gaze was so gentle that if his gaze was something that could be held, the gentleness would drip like water.
At that moment, other than the stench of blood that engulfed him, Chi Yang seemed to have surpassed the boundaries of these iron-blooded men. He was in a universe that no one else could enter.
“Big Brother Chi Yang, how have you been this month? Are you hurt? Did you sleep well? Are your eyes bloodshot?”
What Nuannuan was most worried about was Chi Yang getting injured, or that he would not be able to sleep well.. She was worried that the illness that she had taken great pains to cure would act up again.
