Contract Marriage: Love Has Finally Arrived-Chapter 556 - 557: Luo Chen’s Call

"Last night, they came to the hospital to visit a friend, and then took the opportunity to check on Xixi. When they learned of Yuyan’s injury, they offered to stay and look after Xixi,"

Nangong He nodded slightly and lowered his face, "So that’s what happened."

In his heart, the slight aversion he once had towards Gu Qiangwei seemed to gradually fade away.

He lifted his gaze to the quietly lying Tang Yuyan on the hospital bed, then turned to his son, "I’ll go see Xixi. We can’t keep bothering others to stay here."

"Okay,"

Nangong Mingchuan nodded. He couldn’t leave his wife, so he could only let his father go to accompany his son first.

"Grandpa, I’ll go with you," said Nangong Feifei as she saw Nangong He turning to leave and immediately stepped forward to support his arm.

Nangong He did not object and nodded, "Alright."

The two left the ward and headed towards Nangong Xi’s hospital room.

.

Meanwhile, Nangong Xi had been yearning to see his mother since waking up but couldn’t move his foot.

"Sister Qiangwei, I really want to see mom..."

"Wait two more days, once your leg can move, then we can go over, alright?" Gu Qiangwei soothed.

But clearly, the same words could no longer comfort Nangong Xi.

He hung his head, his little face filled with worry and disappointment.

Gu Qiangwei, feeling helpless, turned her head to look at Qin Sijue, who obviously had an attitude of indifference.

At that moment, a cell phone ringtone sounded.

Qin Sijue pulled out his phone; it was a call from Luo Chen.

Luo Chen was still out and about investigating during the Lunar New Year.

"Hello?"

Qin Sijue held the phone and walked to the window to answer the call.

"Mr. Qin, we’ve found something!" Luo Chen’s voice came through the phone, somewhat excited. ƒreewebɳovel.com

Qin Sijue’s eyebrows slightly knitted upon hearing this.

"Go on."

"Twenty-three years ago, Mrs. Nangong left Nangong Mingchuan, and at that time, she was already engaged to him. But due to Chen Lan’s interference, she left Nangong Mingchuan that year and completely disappeared from Jingcheng..."

"And then?"

"The reason Nangong Mingchuan couldn’t find her later on was that Mrs. Nangong changed her name and identity."

"Tang Xinruo?"

"Exactly!"

Upon hearing the name ’Tang Xinruo,’ Gu Qiangwei instinctively turned around and looked at Qin Sijue.

Who was he talking to on the phone? Why would he mention her mother’s name?

"Because of the name change and marrying Gu Zhendong, her secluded life hardly saw her leave the Gu Family; hence, Nangong Mingchuan could never find her!"

Qin Sijue listened with an expression unchanged on his face, but internally he couldn’t help but acknowledge one thing.

Indeed, like mother, like daughter; even their ways of disappearing were the same, changing their names and identities!

"What about Nangong Feifei then?"

"Nangong Feifei was the result of Chen Lan’s scheme years ago. She drugged Nangong Mingchuan’s drink at a social event and then... cough cough, you know what I mean," Luo Chen coughed lightly, not feeling comfortable with explaining directly, and then continued seriously, "Subsequently, due to this misunderstanding, Mrs. Nangong was devastated, and a little over a month later, Chen Lan presented a pregnancy test report to Mrs. Nangong. Overwhelmed by her schemes and grief, she chose to leave."

"And what about the car accident twelve years ago?"

"Chen Peifang."

Qin Sijue’s brows furrowed as the name was naturally familiar to him.

"Gu Shijie’s mother?"

"Yes, it seems that Mrs. Nangong married Gu Zhendong merely as a means of hiding her identity and pretense of marriage, but since Gu Zhendong deeply loved Mrs. Nangong, he was willing to accept this sham marriage."
