Jian Yufei wasn’t stupid, "What are their demands? Mom, what do they want you to do?"

"Just a little thing, it doesn’t affect me much."

"What exactly is it?"

"I can’t say now. Have Ruan Tianling send someone to wait under the Mermaid Fountain on XX Road, they’ll contact you there."

"Mom, don’t do anything dangerous! If something happens to you, I think Dad would be really sad."

Nangong Ruyue’s tone was relaxed: "Don’t worry, I’ll be fine."

"Mom..." Jian Yufei was still very worried about her.

"Yufei, I haven’t had happiness with your dad yet, so nothing will happen to me. I’ve decided to live this life anew, I can’t bear to leave you all."

"Alright then, you have to promise me, don’t get into trouble."

"I promise you, I swear."

Only then did Jian Yufei feel relieved, and Nangong Ruyue didn’t say much more before quickly hanging up the phone.

After having breakfast, she walked upstairs.

In Nangong Wenxiang’s room.

At this time, a servant was wiping his hands and face.

"Let me do it." Nangong Ruyue stepped forward, and the servant handed her the towel.

"You may leave."

"Yes."

Nangong Ruyue sat down by the bed, took her father’s withered hand, and carefully washed it.

Nangong Wenxiang looked at her without speaking.

After wiping his hands, Nangong Ruyue massaged his calves and arms.

She did these things very earnestly, then all of a sudden, Nangong Wenxiang asked, "What’s going on? Why the sudden burst of filial piety?"

Nangong Ruyue looked up, "Dad, I’ve never taken care of you in this life, I’m really an unfilial daughter."

"As long as you don’t blame me for ruining your life."

Nangong Ruyue smiled, "I used to blame you quite a bit, but not anymore."

"Are you about to do something?"

Indeed, nothing could escape his sharp eyes.

"There is something. I might not be able to see you often in the future, once I leave, it’ll just be you here."

Nangong Wenxiang’s eyes trembled slightly.

Yes, soon it would be just him alone.

But he still wasn’t willing to leave, this place was his root, his life.

"I told you, if you have the ability to leave, cherish the opportunity." 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

"I will."

***********

After leaving Nangong Wenxiang’s room, Nangong Ruyue returned to her own room.

Under the pillow, she had placed a gun.

Taking out the gun and placing it securely on herself, she went out again.

Nangong Xu still hadn’t woken up.

Probably just as the doctor said, he might never wake up again this lifetime.

The head bodyguard saw her coming and respectfully called her Madam.

Nangong Ruyue’s expression was cold, without a trace of emotion on her face.

"Let me ask you, the person wasn’t really taken by you?!"

The head bodyguard frowned, "I made it very clear last time, the person wasn’t taken by us. Why is Madam so obsessed with investigating this?"

Nangong Ruyue sneered, "Because the missing person is very important to me."

The head bodyguard quickly realized, and angrily asked through gritted teeth, "Is he the one who tried to assassinate Sir?!"

"That’s right."

"Madam, didn’t you say he was dead?!"

Nangong Ruyue clenched her fists, "Now that he’s in your hands, he’s probably already dead by now!"

"If he really fell into our hands, we’d make him wish he were dead!" The head bodyguard was too furious and spoke a bit too rashly.
