Zhao Yan’s heart instantly sank to the bottom.

“We need to return immediately,” Zhao Yan said.

Gu Manxi nodded. “Big Brother, I’ll go back with you.”

Before coming to the United States, Zhao Yan had already felt that this trip was a little strange. Now that he saw the news, he suddenly realized that this was a trap set up by his parents. They deliberately sent him away and then aimed their firepower at the innocent Lin Xiaozhou.

Cyberbullying could crush people’s defenses the most.

Lin Xiaozhou had no relatives or friends in China, and he was a carefree youth. The only person he could rely on was Zhao Yan..

Without Zhao Yan, Lin Xiaozhou was a fish on the chopping board who was at the mercy of others.

Zhao Yan’s heart felt like it was being pricked by needles.

“Big Brother, don’t worry.” On the plane back to China, Gu Manxi looked at her big brother who was frowning and comforted him. “I saw the news. Xiaozhou has already signed another live broadcast platform, and the drama online has also stopped.”

Gu Manxi kept feeling that her big brother seemed to care too much about Lin Xiaozhou.

They didn’t seem like they were just friends! 

Gu Manxi stole a glance at Zhao Yan. The tall and handsome man’s brows were tightly knitted and he was restless. It was obvious that he was extremely worried. Ever since Gu Manxi knew Zhao Yan, Zhao Yan had always had a stern and cold image. It was rare for him to lose his composure like this.

After knowing that Lin Xiaozhou had an accident, Zhao Yan immediately pushed aside the project that was worth more than 100 million and directly bought a business class ticket back to China. 

Zhao Yan didn’t eat anything during the ten-hour flight.

“Hello, please bring some food over.” Gu Manxi stopped the flight attendant, and the warm-hearted flight attendant quickly brought over bread and water.

Gu Manxi’s voice was gentle and gentle, like a stream flowing through the mountains. In the front row of the first class cabin, Song Chen, who had just returned from a business trip, raised his head slightly. A trace of doubt flashed through his eyes, and then he shook his head self-mockingly.

He was probably hearing things. 

The plane arrived at the airport in the afternoon.

The capital was bustling with people coming and going from the exit.

Zhao Yan and Gu Manxi left in a hurry. Zhao Yan was worried about Lin Xiaozhou, so his footsteps were a little hurried. Gu Manxi’s steps were small, and she was panting as she followed behind her big brother. She accidentally bumped into a man in a suit. Gu Manxi hurriedly apologized, “Sorry, I’m so sorry.”

The crowd surged. Gu Manxi followed Zhao Yan’s steps and disappeared into the crowd.

Song Chen stood rooted to the ground. He subconsciously held his arm, and that gentle voice was still ringing in his ears.

People were coming and going around, passing by in a hurry, and there were many unfamiliar faces. Song Chen was a little absent-minded. Had he been missing her too much recently, causing him to hear voices again?

There were millions of people at the airport. If she really wanted to hide, she probably wouldn’t have returned to the capital. Song Chen shook his head self-mockingly.

“President, the special passage has been arranged. Miss Cheng found out that you’re returning to the country today and prepared supper in the manor. She’s waiting for you.” The assistant carried his bag and led Song Chen to the empty special passage.

Song Chen’s eyes were dim as he walked away.

…

Cheng family’s private hospital.

Lin Xiaozhou was having dinner with Gu Chu. The sweet and fragrant milk cake, the delicious rice porridge, and the exquisite stir-fried vegetables. The two of them were eating happily, chatting as they ate.

Lin Xiaozhou said, “The food in this hospital is too delicious! When Old Zhao comes back, I have to ask him to learn it so that he can cook for us.”

Gu Chu ate until her mouth was covered with grease. “It’s so delicious!”

The milk cakes, fried shrimps, fried rice cakes, and braised drumsticks were all dishes that Gu Chu liked! Or rather, they were the dishes that Gu Chu liked the most in her previous life!

Gu Chu chewed on the milk cake and suddenly asked curiously, “Where are your parents? Why aren’t they here?”
