Chapter 1625: Chapter 1318: For Her_2

At that time, he was drinking water, and upon hearing this sentence, the water bottle in his hand immediately fell to the ground. He looked at his colleague, suppressing the trembling in his chest, and asked, "What did you just say?"

The colleague replied, "I said Miss Xu, Shi Yuanbo’s wife, has passed away. You know, Old Sir Xu was considered a business tycoon in T City, with two daughters — one eloped abroad, and the other, died so young. What sins did he commit? That’s not all; the crucial point is she’s been dead for less than three months, the grass on the grave hasn’t even grown, and Shi Yuanbo is already about to marry a new wife. I’ve heard this wife is even bringing a son and a daughter into the house... that daughter is a year older than the daughter Miss Xu bore as the legitimate wife..."

He stood there, just feeling as if his chest was being forcibly cut by something, so painful that breathing was difficult.

He regretted, he hated, he resented!

He wondered why he had left, how he could have forgotten Li Guirong’s existence, forgotten that with Xu Hua gone, Li Guirong might take action.

He only thought of his own loss and loneliness, forgetting that beside her, there was still Li Guirong, how could he forget!

He felt extreme pain and his thoughts were in disarray!

He returned to the country as quickly as possible, and first found Li Guirong to question why she acted on her own and caused Xu Hua’s death.

However, Li Guirong adamantly denied it, claiming she had nothing to do with it, that she had done nothing.

She also said she was pregnant, lacking the energy to do anything.

Li Guirong even questioned him, "Why are you so concerned about Xu Hua? She has nothing to do with you. At this moment, you should be happy. In a few days, I will marry into the Shi Family as Shi Yuanbo’s wife, the position of Shi Family’s president lady is also mine. When you enter the Shi Family, I can help you a lot, you should be happy!"

He spoke in a calm voice, ignoring Li Guirong, but also not believing Xu Hua’s death had nothing to do with Li Guirong.

Li Guirong sent him a wedding invitation, but he didn’t go, instead he went to Xu Hua’s grave.

He knew, at this time everyone was focused on Li Guirong, no one paid attention to the cold and lonely her.

Unexpectedly, he encountered Shi Nuan at the cemetery, this girl was probably only eleven years old then.

It was raining that day, but she didn’t hold an umbrella, just stubbornly stood in front of Xu Hua’s tombstone, making one’s heart ache.

He recalled the first time he met her; she was just a four-year-old little girl back then, now she has grown up quite a bit.

He walked over; Shi Nuan saw him, but obviously, she didn’t recognize him.

Indeed, a four-year-old child can have little memory, especially since they only spent a few minutes together that day.

So many years have passed, both have changed a lot, some have grown up, and some have left.

He didn’t understand why he said those words to Shi Nuan, but later he realized, it was said to Shi Nuan, but also said to himself.

Shi Nuan really looks a lot like Xu Hua, her eyebrows and eyes are almost identical.

But compared to Xu Hua, she seems to have something more.

That is stubbornness, unrest, hate.

Suddenly, he felt that the future of this girl is destined not to be peaceful.

Xu Hua was gone, Li Guirong entered the Shi Family, despite Shi Yuanbo’s favoritism, but Li Guirong gave birth to a son, Shi Yuanbo probably can’t protect Shi Nuan anymore.

He wants to protect Shi Nuan for Xu Hua!

This idea formed, he must do certain things.

He roughly knows what Shi Nuan wants to do.

He wants to help her, but he also knows he is a sinner to Shi Nuan.

After all, the downfall of the Xu Family was thanks to him.

But uncovering Xu Hua’s cause of death is something he can and must do.

After leaving the cemetery that day, he started to find people to investigate, but after some time, no useful information came forth.

He felt this matter had something to do with Li Guirong, but Li Guirong was about to give birth, she was staying at another hospital, awaiting delivery.

Shi Yuanbo perhaps still had feelings for Xu Hua, in that period, mostly stayed at Xu Hua’s room.

Li Guirong called him often, inviting him to come; he went only two or three times.

Overall, the result left him at his wit’s end, after considering, he decided to find Shi Yuanbo for a talk.

He proposed to Li Guirong to meet Shi Yuanbo, Li Guirong’s eyes lit up, she was delighted to link them, he arranged Shi Yuanbo in a hotel private room.

When Shi Yuanbo arrived, he had already ordered some dishes, Shi Yuanbo saw, smiled, "I didn’t expect your taste is like..."
