Chapter 553: Chapter 0555: Endless Love for Children
Chu Ge didn’t seem to mind and looked at Huo Tianqian, saying, "You don’t need to accompany me to Beijing; I have something more important for you to do."
Upon hearing this, Huo Tianqian immediately became serious, and he asked Chu Ge, "What is it?"
Chu Ge couldn’t help but chuckle and clapped him on the shoulder, "Relax, it’s not really a big deal. I’ll tell you later."
The three of them stood there and chatted for a while longer. The sun had already climbed high into the sky, and despite the autumn weather, being exposed to the sun still felt quite hot, even to the point where the skin felt a bit painful.
Huo Tianqian looked up at the sky; the dazzling sunlight made it hard to keep his eyes open. He joked, "Chairman Zhao, too, finds meaning in doing things in front of us. Confessing alone is so boring."
Chu Ge glanced at him with a teasing tone, "How did you go about pursuing your wife back in the day?"
Huo Tianqian suddenly fell silent, his cheeks inexplicably blushing. When he was chasing his wife back then, he was even crazier than Zhao Wuji. Of course, he was young and impulsive at that time. If it were now, he wouldn’t do it ever again.
Nangong Man Sha, standing to the side, looked back at the tightly shut door. Although she didn’t know what had happened between Zhao Wuji and Mu Qing, the look in Zhao Wuji’s eyes when he saw Mu Qing was enough to tell she was deeply loved.
Nangong Man Sha knew Zhao Wuji somewhat; he was the chairman of Modu Tianrui Bank, and the Nangong family had business dealings with Tianrui Bank.
She vaguely remembered that Zhao Wuji had a wife.
Nangong Man Sha’s suspicious gaze turned to Chu Ge, "Those two..."
Chu Ge knew that Nangong Man Sha was overthinking it, but as it was someone else’s relationship issue, as an outsider, it wasn’t his place to say much. He simply explained, "It’s not like what you’re thinking. Zhao Wuji is definitely not a scumbag."
Nangong Man Sha nodded and didn’t ask further. After all, the affairs of those two had nothing to do with her.
The reason she had asked was merely to find a topic to chat with Chu Ge.
Since Chu Ge didn’t want to talk about it, of course, she wouldn’t pry.
But the sun was really becoming quite hot, and there was no shade to speak of in the vast courtyard.
As a woman who was very concerned about her beauty, Nangong Man Sha looked around and could only walk over to the wall to find some respite from the sun.
After a while, Zhao Wuji and Mu Qing came out of the villa, Mu Qing’s face radiating sweetness, snuggling up against Zhao Wuji like a little woman.
And Zhao Wuji was all smiles, the joy in his eyes nearly overflowing.
Seeing the two of them so lovey-dovey, Huo Tianqian quickly raised his hand to shield his eyes from their dazzling affection, teasingly shouting, "It’s too dazzling! My goodness, such a show of affection is just too much!"
Mu Qing glared at Huo Tianqian in annoyance, and Zhao Wuji also looked at him with a somewhat embarrassed smile, then the two exchanged a knowing look and laughed.
With so many eyes on them, Mu Qing felt a bit shy too. She smiled and left Zhao Wuji’s embrace.
"We’re planning to treat everyone to a meal," Zhao Wuji said with a cheerful smile, as today was the happiest day of his life, and it must be celebrated properly.
But in Dang City, there were only a few people who could join him in celebration.
Mu Qing stepped forward and once again bowed deeply to Chu Ge with great respect, "Mr. Chu, if it weren’t for you, I probably wouldn’t have had these days. You gave me the chance to stand up again. If there’s ever a time Mr. Chu could use my help, Mu Qing, I would not hesitate."
Chu Ge stepped forward to help her up, "I merely did what I could and didn’t do much else. Madam Mu Qing, there’s no need to worry about it."
Mu Qing looked at Chu Ge with an approving gaze. Since the moment she passed on the medical secrets to him, she had sensed that Chu Ge was no ordinary person; he was a martial arts prodigy. As long as he persisted and stayed the course, he would surely become a leading figure one day.
"Let’s go. I’ve already made a reservation. Let’s go eat."
Zhao Wuji stepped forward at the right time, taking them to have dinner in the center of Dang City.
After curing Mu Qing’s legs, Chu Ge had completed all his matters here. He purchased a ticket for the early morning train the next day, returning directly to Shanghai.
Nangong Man Sha did not return to Shanghai with Chu Ge, but instead flew back to Beijing that very night with the Spiritual Liquid provided by Chu Ge.
In matters of love and familial affection, Nangong Man Sha could distinguish them clearly.
Her grandfather was waiting for her to bring back the Spiritual Liquid to save his life. She couldn’t afford to delay because of her personal romantic feelings.
Although she also wanted to know what Chu Ge’s fiancée looked like and what kind of woman could possess a man like Chu Ge.
When Chu Ge arrived in Shanghai, the sky had already turned dark.
Just before getting off the train, Huo Tianqian made a phone call to Ah Hu, who had arrived early at the station to wait.
Chu Ge and Huo Tianqian got off the train and got into Ah Hu’s car, heading towards the city area.
On the way, Ah Hu was obviously excited, "Master Huo, Mr. Chu, you’re finally back."
Chu Ge sat in the back with his eyes closed, while Huo Tianqian sat in the passenger seat, letting out a long sigh and resting one hand on the car window, "Yeah, finally back. It feels like we didn’t stay out there for very long, but somehow coming back now gives me a sense of apprehension as if I was nearing my hometown."
Perhaps it was because they had gone through life and death experiences that returning home made them feel a different kind of emotion.
"By the way, has your sister-in-law asked about me recently?" Huo Tianqian asked out of curiosity.
Ah Hu nodded, "Of course, your sister-in-law keeps such a close eye on you. If she doesn’t see you for two days, she comes straight to our headquarters. By the way, Master Huo, we couldn’t contact you for the past three days. Where were you? You have no idea how much of a fuss your sister-in-law made at headquarters. We all know you would never do anything to betray her. Did you run into any danger?"
Huo Tianqian pulled a wry smile and nodded heavily; those three days spent in the idyllic haven soaking in a medicinal bath were both a nightmare of his life and the third turning point. It held profound significance for him.
He patted Ah Hu’s shoulder, unable to articulate his current emotions with words.
Ah Hu glanced at the rearview mirror, saw Chu Ge resting with his eyes closed, opened his mouth wanting to say something to Chu Ge, but worried he would disturb him, he ended up keeping his mouth shut.
Half an hour later, the car arrived in front of Mu Bingtong’s villa.
Chu Ge did not inform Mu Bingtong prior to his return this time; he planned to give her a surprise.
Getting out of the car, Chu Ge said to Huo Tianqian, "Leave the gifts in the car for now. Tomorrow, you can deliver them directly to the Ouyang Family and the Sima Family."
Huo Tianqian nodded, "Alright then, you should rest early. We’ll be leaving now."
The car quickly drove away, and the street sank back into silence.
Chu Ge looked up at the brightly lit villa, wondering what Bingtong might be doing...
