147: Chapter 131: Chaos of War: Nanxi is Missing _2 147: Chapter 131: Chaos of War: Nanxi is Missing _2 Nanxi was a very independent girl.
She had her own thoughts and ideas that he couldnât influence, and all he could do was respect them.
He often felt he couldnât control herâinstead, she controlled him!
During the previous six years, he never saw this as a problem.
He brought her to H City, gave her a new life, and because of her arrival, his life also became new.
Everything was great, absolutely perfect!
But recently, he became increasingly uneasy.
His motherâs coercion, his fatherâs helplessness, and his two sistersâ intermittent naggingâ¦
all of these made him feel extremely disturbed.
He feared Nanxi might one day be unable to bear all this and choose to run away.
He was afraid of losing her!
But even so, he shouldnât have lost his temper with Nanxi, let alone left her alone with no regard for her feelings!
He regretted it.
He wondered if Nanxi was crying now.
Who would console her?
Now that Yang Su and Lan Qiqi had both returned to K City, she didnât even have someone to confide inâ¦
With these thoughts, he became even more anxious, grabbed his coat, and ran towards H University.
While experiencing great agony and regret, he wished he could immediately appear in front of Nanxi, apologize to her, and dialled her number.
However, the phone was turned off!
At this point, he became even more frantic.
Just as he was about to try again, his phone rang.
It was a call from his sister, Li Mufang!
Li Weihuanâs brow furrowed.
He didnât want to listen to his eldest sisterâs nagging, so he hung up the call.
Even when Li Mufang called back, he still hung up!
Li Weihuan had just reached the school gate and was about to go in, when his mobile phone vibrated.
A short message popped up:
â Weihuan, come to City First Hospital quickly.
Dad fainted from a heart attack on the construction site and is being resuscitated in the operating roomâ¦
The doctor said his condition is a bit criticalâ¦
â¦
Nanxi was missing.
Having received a call from Li Weihuan, Bai Yuchuan rushed over with Zhang Mu.
However, Nanxi was no longer lying on that patch of grass!
Nobody in the vicinity seemed to know what had happened.
Bai Yuchuan was extremely anxious.
He had grown up with Li Weihuan and knew his character well.
The previous talk about forcing Nanxi to get a marriage certificate was most likely not just empty talk, but something he had been pondering for a long time!
He assured Bai Yuchuan that everything was fine, but Bai Yuchuan wasnât sure how much longer he could maintain his rationality after such an emotional struggle.
He remembered the words Li Weihuan said on the phone earlier, âI proposed to her, I thought she would agreeâI really thought she would.
But she didnât agreeâ¦â
Bai Yuchuan wiped the sweat from his face.
His heart ached inexplicably for his brother who had lost himself to love!
â¦
Han Baobao was surprised to receive Bai Yuchuanâs call.
After all, their group usually ignored her, let alone call her!
Bai Yuchuan asked her, âDo you know where Nanxi is?â
Han Baobao paused, her heart sinking.
So it was because of Nanxi.
No wonder they were being so kind to her!
Han Baobao replied, âWhy are you asking me?
Didnât she go out with Li Weihuan?â
Bai Yuchuan understood that something must have happened.
Without saying another word, he hung up the phone, leaving Han Baobao dumbfounded.
âHe must be crazy!â Han Baobao threw her phone on the bed, muttered irritably, and continued studying her thesis.
A few seconds later, Han Baobao sensed that something was wrong.
She immediately picked up her phone and made another call.
The other end of the line picked up quickly and Han Baobao said, âBrother!â
âSpeak quickly, I have a meeting in two minutes.â Han Shaojingâs voice sounded cold.
He always tried to maintain his stern, elder brother demeanour in front of his sister.
Han Baobao stuck her tongue out and thought, âKeep pretending.â She then said, âWhat could it be?
Itâs about Nanxi.
This morning, she and Li Weihuan went out together.
But just now, Bai Yuchuan called to ask me where Nanxi isâ¦
Donât you find it strange?â
Han Shaojing, who was walking with an elite white-collar team towards a conference room, paused, indicating to the others to go ahead.
Han Qing glanced at him when she passed by but didnât say anything, and then followed the team away.
Han Shaojing then asked, âWhat exactly happened?
Did Nanxi and Li Weihuan both disappear, or just Nanxi?â.
Han Baobao furrowed her brow and said, somewhat displeased, âHow would I know?
Bai Yuchuan just asked if I knew where Nanxi was.
He didnât ask about Li Weihuan.
Itâs really strangeâ¦â.
Han Shaojing pursed his lips, resumed his elder brother authority, and coughed before saying, âConcentrate on your thesis.
I will personally cheer for you at your thesis defense!â
Before Han Baobao could exclaim âDonât!â, Han Shaojing had already hung up the phone, and quickly dialled Lu Yinchuâs number.
â¦
When Li Weihuan received a call from Liang Qiaoqiao, he was still waiting outside the operating room.
Liang Qiaoqiao asked him, âWhat happened between you and Nanxi?â
Li Weihuan felt a pang in his heart and hesitated to answer.
Liang Qiaoqiao continued, âNanxi is here with me now, and she seemsâ¦not very well.
She wonât speak about what happened so I called to ask you.
Weihuan, what exactly is going on with you and Nanxi?â
Li Weihuan shook his head, let out a sigh, and began to speak in an exhausted tone, âSister Qiaoqiao, Iâm sorry.
Today, on impulseâ¦
I proposed to her!â
Liang Qiaoqiao paused as she heard Li Weihuan continue, âShe rejected meâ¦
Iâ¦I got angry at her, threw the ring, and left her alone.
But as soon as I got to the door, I regretted it.
I wanted to go back and find her, but then something happened to my dadâ¦â.
Li Weihuanâs voice was filled with pain.
He covered his face with his hand, his voice choked with emotion.
Liang Qiaoqiao took a deep breath on the other end and said, âI see!
Donât worry, Iâll take good care of Nanxi!â
Li Weihuan responded, then added, âIâm sorry, Sister Qiaoqiao!â
Liang Qiaoqiao didnât say anything else, just hung up the phone!
â¦
Behind her, a man with a cold expression sat on the sofa, holding a cup of lemon tea.
He hadnât drunk a single sip!
Mo Yan, sitting next to him, glanced at Liang Qiaoqiao, who remained silent, waiting for the man on the sofa to give instructions.
âMr.
Lu, maybe Nanxi is just hiding because sheâs upset,â Mo Yan finally broke the silence, and said helplessly.
âNo.â The man quickly denied his suggestion, very certain, âNanxi is not the kind of girl to make people worry about her.
Sheâs too kind-hearted to let anyone worry about her, even when she herself is upset and in pain.
So, she wouldnât hideâ¦â
Frowning, Mo Yan and Liang Qiaoqiaoâs faces changed.
If she wasnât hiding, but they still couldnât get in touch with her, that could mean many thingsâmost of them not good.
âMo Yan, call the principal of H University and see if thereâs a record of any girl being sent to the medical room this morning due to illness, injury, or faintingâ¦
Hurry up!â
Mo Yan was startled but quickly responded, ââ¦Yes!
