Huo Yibei's willingness to not force herself finally made Su Yunnuan relax.

She found a comfortable position to sit down and gave Huo Yibei a thumbs up: "Thank you for respecting me so much."

"During this time, I lived in a daze. I had no idea where I was being held, let alone what drugs they used on me. For a long time, I was sleeping and my mind was not clear."

Although Su Yunnuan was tactful enough not to ask anything when faced with the recovery of her lost item, she still chose not to hide anything and briefly described her experiences during this period.

"If you don't believe me, you can ask a doctor to check my arm. There are so many needle holes on it."

As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves, revealing the needle marks on his veins that had not yet disappeared.

The big eyes, as clear as water, flickered as they looked at Huo Yibei without any avoidance.

That kind of look is crystal clear, without any impurities.

Huo Yibei looked at her frightened expression, nodded, took her hand, and played with it in his palm.

He was not curious at all about what Su Yunnuan had experienced, nor did he want to ask.

As long as she appeared in front of him safely and came back to him, he didn't care no matter what she had been through.

and……

He was well aware of those people's methods.

How could he possibly let Su Yunnuan go?

She must have been through a lot of unbearable pain.

If she didn't have such a strong ability to endure, she wouldn't have been able to hold on until now.

If an ordinary person encountered such a thing, he would have suffered a psychological breakdown or mental disorder long ago.

"Nuan Nuan, if you want to say it, just say it. If you don't want to say it, you don't have to say it. I don't care about that."

"Compared to your life safety, these things are trivial and can be ignored."

In the past, he didn't know how to cherish her and didn't know how good she was.

But during the time she disappeared, his mind was full of her and all he could think about was her good points.

When he missed her the most, he told himself: No matter what happens, as long as she comes back alive, that's enough.

When a person is alive, he has everything; when a person dies, he really has nothing.

Su Yunnuan felt a warmth in the hand he held, and the warmth spread from the fingertips all the way up to the heart.

She smiled restrainedly, rested her head on Huo Yibei's shoulder, and looked out the car window.

I whispered to him, "During the time I was missing, you must have been very happy, right? You finally got rid of me!"

The man's grip on her hand suddenly tightened.

Su Yunnuan frowned in pain: "What are you doing? Using so much force! It hurts!"

Huo Yibei smiled: "It hurts, that's right! I'll see if you keep talking nonsense!"

Until now, he was still immersed in the joy of regaining what he had lost. He, who had always been a man of few words, took the initiative to talk to Su Yunnuan, with a sparkling look in his eyes.

After the car drove into Wutong Courtyard, Su Yunnuan said that she was very dirty and wanted to take a shower to wash away all the bad luck.

Huo Yibei arranged for the servant to run the bath water.

After Su Yunnuan went into the bathroom, he went to the study and called his father to report the matter.

Huo Qizhen has been in a bad mood recently and has been feeling sick all the time. He can't muster the energy to do anything.

Huo Zhizhi made a lot of nourishing soups for him, but it didn't help him to cheer up.

Hearing the news that Su Yunnuan had returned, he sat up from the hospital bed: "Really? Yunnuan is back? She's back in good health?"

As a businessman who has been in the business world for many years, he was puzzled as to whether Su Yunnuan was safe and sound.

The other party clearly asked for 50 million US dollars in cash, but why did they delay asking the Huo family for the money?

Huo Yibei heard the doubt in his father's tone, suppressed the doubts in his heart, and said "hmm" lightly.

"She did come back, fine, whole and sound, no injuries, just a lot of needle marks on the veins in her arms."

"I've seen the injection marks, they're real."

"Now, I suspect they injected her with some kind of drug that can control a person's mind."

Although Su Yunnuan behaved no differently than usual, he always felt that there was something strange about her.

In the past, whenever Su Yunnuan faced him, she would stand up with all her thorns like a little hedgehog trying to prick people.

Today, her eyes are no longer as bright as before, and occasionally reveal fear and fatigue.

It is obvious...

She must have suffered a lot during this period.

Especially when he got close to her, all her muscles tensed.

She was clearly gritting her back teeth when interacting with him, but she pretended to like him very much.

It was really hard for her.

After hearing what his son said, Huo Qizhen changed his hand to hold the phone: "So what do you want to do?"

"What do you need me to do?"

Huo Yibei thought for a moment and said, "I don't have anything I want to do for now. I'll wait and see. If I'm not mistaken, they're going to ask me for 50 million soon."

Huo Qizhen let out a long breath: "I'm old, my brain doesn't work as fast as yours, and I can't keep up with the new trends. If you want to do something, just go ahead and do it. If you make mistakes, Dad will take the blame for you!"

"But there is one thing you must find out, how did grandpa die?"

"You have to give me an explanation for this matter no matter what!"

Huo Yibei said "OK" and hung up the phone.

When he walked out of the study and came to the bedroom, Su Yunnuan had already fallen asleep.

The woman slept on the large sapphire blue bed, her back to him, breathing evenly.

The man came over, put her hands that were exposed outside the quilt back into the quilt, turned up the air conditioner temperature, kissed her forehead, and walked out of the bedroom.

The moment the door was closed, the woman sleeping on the bed opened her eyes.

————

Su Yunnuan's return is full of doubts, but also reasonable.

The police confiscated her ID card and passport and did not allow her to leave Jiangcheng until Huo Jianguo's death was fully investigated.

Su Yunnuan cooperated completely by handing over her ID card and passport without saying a word.

only……

Whenever she mentioned the old man's death, she looked confused and had no impression of it.

In the evening, Huo Yibei made an appointment with Fu Xingchuan and Gu Shenyan to have a drink.

The three of them sat in their private box, each with their own thoughts.

Fu Xingchuan raised his glass of wine, glanced at the unhappy Huo Yibei, and asked him: "Old Huo, your sweetheart is back, why are you still unhappy? Could it be that Su Yunnuan doesn't allow you to touch her?"

Huo Yibei put the cup down heavily on the coffee table: "What nonsense are you talking about!"

"If you don't speak, I'll take you as dumb!"

Gu Shenyan was not afraid of making trouble and touched Huo Yibei's arm. He then asked, "Su Yunnuan really doesn't let you touch her?"

"pretty good!"

"If she lets you touch her easily, I'll think this Su Yunnuan is fake! But if she doesn't let you touch her, it seems more like she's real!"

"Don't forget, when you two were getting divorced, she almost turned you into a eunuch!"

Talking about what happened before, Fu Xingchuan smiled with his hands covering his mouth.

Only Huo Yibei had a gloomy face, looking like he was worried about something.

"To tell you the truth, I don't think there's anything wrong with Su Yunnuan. I just think her appearance is too coincidental."
