"Soon."
Helan Xi responded softly and fell into silence again.
The zither, from beginning to end, did not play.
"..."
At the Orchid Garden.
Gong Nanling stood in front of the railing of the lotus flower pond for a while before returning to the room where he and Gu Mengmeng rested.
He gently pushed the door open and slowed down his pace. Unexpectedly, she still woke up Gu Mengmeng.
"Gong Nanling, you're back."
Gu Mengmeng opened her slightly closed eyes and turned around, facing him.
"Did I wake you?"
A trace of heartache flashed across Gong Nanling's face as he quickly walked over.
"I already felt it was shallow …" "What did Mr. Helan say?"
Gu Mengmeng anxiously said as she stretched her eyelids to their widest extent.
"Mr. Helan isn't here …"
Gong Nanling tucked her in and frowned.
"Not here. Where did he go? "
"I don't know."
"Then what do we do now? "We can't keep dragging this out like this, just in case Assistant Ding …"
Gu Mengmeng panicked when she heard this. He hated Ye Tian more and more.
"Gong Nanling, take me to him immediately?"
"Xiao Ba said that Mr. Helan is not in good health either. He told us not to disturb him these days."
Gong Nanling said with a heavy heart.
Although he still didn't know what happened to Helan Xi, but Helan Xi's face did look bad.
"Aiya, I'm not talking about Mr. Helan …"
Gu Mengmeng was so anxious that the corners of her eyes turned red. She pulled back the covers and sat up.
"It's not Mr. Helan? "What's that?"
Gong Nanling was stunned, his dizzy brain couldn't react for a while.
"Who do you think it is?"
Gu Mengmeng gritted her teeth and sat on the edge of the bed.
Gong Nanling was surprised to see her so angry.
"You're going to your father?"2
"He's not my father."
Gu Mengmeng put on her slippers and stood up.
Gong Nanling quickly grabbed both of her arms, lowered his eyes, and his face changed.
"Mengmeng, how can you meet him with your current state?"
"What's wrong with me like this? Why can't I see him? "
Gu Mengmeng raised her voice, her chest heaving.
"Mengmeng, that's not what I meant … I mean, he didn't just say he could see her... "Moreover, if he truly wanted to see you, he would have come to see you a long time ago …"
Gong Nanling's last sentence was something he didn't want to say. The reason he said this was to dispel Gu Mengmeng's impulse.
Gu Mengmeng's body shuddered, and her face turned even paler.
Gong Nanling's words were like a bucket of cold water, watering her from head to toe. It chilled her heart.
That's right, if Ye Tian really wanted to see her, he would have already come over after she gave birth.
"Mengmeng …"
Gong Nanling knew that he said those words too seriously. He didn't feel good about it either.
"Young Master Gong, Miss Gu …"
At that moment, the respectful voice of a servant sounded from the door.
"What is it?"
Gong Nanling turned his head slightly and asked the door.
"Young Master Gong, Master Luo is here."
The "Master Luo" in the lower class was Ye Tian's assistant, Gan Luo.
Gong Nanling's gaze froze as he muttered in a low voice.
"What is he doing here?"
He turned around and helped Gu Mengmeng to sit on the bed.
"Mengmeng, I'll go take a look. Don't move …"
"…"
Gu Mengmeng met Gan Luo once and knew that he was one of Ye Tian's men. Gritting her teeth, her delicate chin tightened into a cold arc.
Gong Nanling walked out.
Pushing the door open, he saw Gan Luo, who was dressed in casual clothes, standing not far away. Upon seeing the other party come out, he bowed respectfully and followed suit.
"Young Master Gong, Lord Priest wants to see you again."
