Chapter 1708 Moving Away
After eating and drinking his fill, Chi Yang sent Nuannuan home. As Nuannuan watched Chi Yang leave to head back to the special forces, she asked with heartache, “Big Brother Chi Yang, you stayed up all night with me yesterday and didn’t get any sleep. You should head home and get some rest. Don’t go to the special forces, there’s not much that needs to be done there during this time anyway.” Chi Yang rubbed Nuannuan’s hair. “You go back and sleep. I’m not going back to the special forces. This afternoon, I’m going to meet Executive Yuan and the president to discuss the situation regarding the benefits that Naboo and our country have agreed on.” Nuannuan pouted and said, “Then come back early to rest.”
“Okay.”
Nuannuan returned to the Chi family home. Only Old Master Chi and Second Uncle were home at the time.
“Grandpa, Second Uncle.”
“Little Girl, you’re back? How was it? Has the issue been resolved?”
“Yes, it has been resolved. Ning Wenhao’s illness has been cured.”
Chi Zexiao smiled and said, “I knew my Nuannuan would be able to help. That kid Ning Wenhao will definitely have been saved.”
Old Master Chi was full of praise when he heard the news. Even the servants of the Chi family came to flatter her. It made Nuannuan feel dizzy.
Looking at the van outside and the people loading it with many things, Nuannuan asked curiously, “What’s going on? Why is Big Bro having so many things be loaded onto the van?”
Old Master Chi answered, “Yue’er is going to live with Aiden and the others on the Peninsula. Lil Xuan is worried, so he wants to move there with her.”
“Worried? What’s there to be worried about? Big Sis Yue is going to live with Aiden and the others, not alone in the wilderness. He clearly wants to live with Sister Yue, hence why he’s following her there. He doesn’t want to accept what he’s feeling, still insisting that Big Sis Yue and him are like brother and sister. He’s really in denial.”
Nuannuan had discussed this matter with Feng Shengxuan several times. They had spoken about how, in actuality, he very much fancied Bai Liyue.
Who could have known that he would be an extremely stubborn person? Despite Nuannuan’s efforts of trying to clarify the situation, he stubbornly kept the belief that he loved Nuannuan, and cared for Bai Liyue as how an older brother would for their younger sister.
Second Uncle could not help but mention, “Recently, the Xiao family’s kid has often been coming to look for Yue’er, and he seems quite angry. Today, he packed his things and wanted to leave the Chi family because Aiden, Selina, and Leng Qirui made an appointment to game. They said they were going to fight some enemy team that kept picking on Selina and Aiden. Surprisingly, Young Master Xiao is also a gamer-so he also wanted to join the team and he pulled Yue’er into it. Lil Xuan was so angry that he followed them to the Peninsula.”
Nuannuan, “…
After a long period of speechlessness, she could not help but retort, “So, he still believes that I’m the one he has feelings for?”
Old Master Chi looked at Nuannuan and was left speechless as well. He nodded.
“Alright, alright. I heard from your Grandpa that you have been busy since yesterday noon up to 5 o’clock this morning when you headed straight for the hospital. Have you eaten yet?”
“Grandpa, I’ve already eaten. Big Brother Chi Yang brought me to eat.”
“Then, hurry up and get some rest.”
“Okay!”
Nuannuan agreed and went back to sleep.
At nine o’clock the next morning, Nuannuan arrived at the medical research base that Aiden had specially set up for her. From afar, she could see the Huang siblings.
Huang Ziyu was pushing Huang Zichu’s wheelchair. Soon, they came to a stop at the entrance of the research base.
They were surrounded by all nine of the international Rank-S mercenary assassins from yesterday.
None of them had run away.
