After leaving Chenyuan, Jiang Xue didn’t say a word. She just held Little Reunion and closed her eyes to rest.

Lu Jintian wanted to ask her, but when he saw how tired she looked, he ended up not asking anything. Just as they were about to arrive at Jiang Xue’s apartment complex, Lu Jintian asked, "Xue’er, it’s just you and the child at home, are you really not going to stay at my place?"

"Brother, really, there’s no need. Just come to pick me up at home tomorrow." Jiang Xue refused again. She understood Lu Jintian’s good intentions, but she didn’t like staying at other people’s places. Even if the person was her brother, even if Lu Jintian’s place had a great environment, she was unwilling.

As they say, a golden nest, a silver nest, is not as good as one’s own kennel. Jiang Xue was just this kind of person. She felt that even though she was alone at home, she was comfortable living there.

Jiang Xue insisted, and Lu Jintian couldn’t force her, so he had to send her back to her place.

Lu Jintian didn’t accompany Jiang Xue upstairs. He only left after he saw the lights in her apartment turn on. Jiang Xue was indeed tired, not only from the day out but also mentally exhausted from facing Nangong Chen.

Jiang Xue isn’t a fool, especially with Little Fox as her strategist. She understood Nangong Chen’s feelings for her, at least somewhat.

If there weren’t other factors involved, Nangong Chen alone as a person was still an excellent man—he had looks, wealth, status, and he was the Young Master of the Nangong Family.

Even though she didn’t know much about the Nangong Family, seeing Lu Jintian’s and others’ wary attitude towards them, she knew the Nangong Family wasn’t easy to deal with.

If she weren’t worried about Nangong Chen discovering her secret, Jiang Xue would quite admire him. But alas...

Jiang Xue sighed, shook her head, and seeing Little Reunion was very sleepy, she took him back to the bedroom to sleep.

Little Reunion soon fell asleep, but Jiang Xue had no sleepiness at all. Ever since Mu Qiancheng left, there hadn’t been any news from him.

She wondered whether they had arrived at the disaster area? Did they encounter difficulties, or perhaps danger?

Thinking about it made Jiang Xue unable to sleep. She got up from the bed and went to the living room, where she turned on the TV.

The time was ten o’clock, just the time for news broadcasts. Due to the disaster in the south, the Southern TV station had special reports, and she eagerly wanted to know about the situation in the disaster area to determine whether Mu Qiancheng was safe.

Jiang Xue switched to the news channel first, but there wasn’t much information she wanted. She directly changed to the Southern station and saw that it was still raining. Among the rain, warriors from the People’s Liberation Army in camouflage uniforms were fighting floods and conducting rescue operations.

Dangerous scenes flashed before Jiang Xue’s eyes, and touching moments echoed in her mind. When Jiang Xue saw a warrior being swept away by the flood while saving a child from being swept away, her heart immediately tensed.

She clasped her hands together and silently prayed, hoping that Mu Qiancheng was safe. Jiang Xue watched television for more than an hour. Despite seeing many warriors, there was no news about Mu Qiancheng.

It wasn’t until her eyes grew tired and she could barely keep them open that Jiang Xue finally turned off the TV and went back to her room to sleep, carrying her thoughts and worries about Mu Qiancheng.

Meanwhile, in a small town in the south, Mu Qiancheng had finally taken a break after being busy for a whole day and night. Holding a piece of bread in one hand, he quickly dialed a string of numbers with his other hand.
