After lunch, the village head brought Tang Mo and the rest to the mountains for inspection.

Nan Xun followed at the village head’s request.

The village head asked her to introduce them.

When they arrived at the foot of Hump Mountain, Nan Xun glanced at Tang Mo.

Hump Mountain was rather steep and ordinary people would be tired if they went up. Considering Tang Mo’s legs, Nan Xun suggested softly, “President Tang, why don’t you rest at the foot of the mountain and let

Assistant Meng and the rest go up to inspect?”

Tang Mo narrowed his eyes. “Do you think I can’t do it?”

“No, the mountain is very steep…”

Tang Mo’s handsome face darkened slightly. “Are you looking down on my stamina?”

Nan Xun said, “That’s not what I meant…”

Tang Mo smirked. “I think no one knows my stamina better than you.”

Nan Xun was speechless. Alright, he would treat it as if she had not said anything.

After a few hours in the afternoon, Nan Xun realized that Tang Mo was rather serious when he was working. In the past, she did not understand how a playboy like him managed a huge corporation. After this time, she

realized that he seemed to have two faces.

Working and not working were completely different.

She had to admit that he was very charming when he was working.

Tang Mo and the others were going to Yuxi Village for two days. In the evening, they went to the village commission for dinner.

The village head arranged for them to stay.

When it came to Tang Mo, the village head was in a dilemma.

There was no empty single room in the village council. With Tang Mo’s status, he would probably suffer if he stayed in a bad place.

Her cousin came to fetch Nan Xun in the evening. Instead of finding Nan Xun at the restaurant, she saw Tang Mo.

Her cousin’s eyes lit up and she almost called him handsome brother-in-law in public.

The cousin ran up to Tang Mo and greeted him with a smile.

Nan Xun went to the washroom and her lips twitched when she saw her cousin chatting happily with Tang Mo.

Nan Xun walked over and before she could say anything, she heard her cousin’s most sincere invitation. “Brother Tang, you can sleep at our house tonight. We made a new house and have a guest room for you to rest

in. It’s much better than Uncle Village Chief’s house.”

The village head felt that this idea was not bad. Seeing that Tang Mo did not object, he pulled Nan Xun aside to discuss with her.

Since the village head had spoken, Nan Xun could not object.

The village head arranged for Tang Mo and Meng Yi to stay at Nan Xun’s house.

On the way home, the cousin sat behind the car with Tang Mo. Nan Xun sat in the front passenger seat while Meng Yi drove.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Tang Mo took a set of Barbie dolls from the back of the car for his cousin.

Her cousin was overjoyed. She was a hundred times happier than when Xiao Mo had given her the electronic piano.

The Barbie doll Tang Mo had given her was custom-made from Japan and was rather exquisite and beautiful. She could move every joint of her limbs and had a set of imitation kitchen tools.

These were the favorite things of seven or eight-year-old girls. Nan Xun glanced at them. If she remembered correctly, this set was rather expensive and could not be bought with money.

When her cousin received the gift, she could not help but kiss Tang Mo’s handsome face.

“Brother Tang, since you’re not my brother-in-law anymore, you must wait for me to grow up. When I grow up, I’ll definitely be prettier than my Sister Xun. I’ll marry you then.”

Nan Xun’s lips twitched and she used her eyes to signal her cousin to shut up.

The cousin clearly did not receive Nan Xun’s gaze. She leaned close to Tang Mo with a smitten expression.

Meng Yi, who was driving, could not help but laugh.

Tang Mo smirked. Looking at his cousin’s innocent and cute appearance, he raised his hand and touched her head.

Along the way, the cousin chattered nonstop, but Tang Mo did not seem impatient. Nan Xun realized that he was not only liked by women, but also by girls.

The car stopped at Nan Xun’s house.

Grandma and Auntie came out and saw Tang Mo getting out of the car. Auntie was stunned for a moment before she reacted and hurried forward. “So it’s Mr Tang.”

Her aunt had attended Nan Xun and Tang Mo’s wedding. She knew how grand the Tang family was. In front of Tang Mo, she was very reserved.

When Grandma found out that it was Nan Xun’s ex-husband, she glanced at Tang Mo a few more times.

Tang Mo went forward and greeted Grandma with a smile.

Grandma did not say anything else and asked Auntie to arrange a guest room for Tang Mo and Meng Yi. She called Nan Xun to her room.

Nan Xun repeatedly promised that Grandma would only be at ease if Tang Mo came for work.

Grandma was conservative and she felt that since they were divorced, it was best not to be entangled with each other, in case people gossiped.

Grandma asked her aunt to entertain Tang Mo and Meng Yi and asked Nan Xun to return to her room.

Nan Xun returned to her room to take a bath. She did not go downstairs and lay on the bed to read.

She did not know when she fell asleep, but she woke up in the middle of the night.

She was a little hungry and looked at her phone. It was almost one in the morning.

They should be asleep at this time!

Nan Xun put on a jacket and went downstairs.

In the kitchen, she took out noodles and eggs from the fridge.

When the noodles were almost cooked, footsteps sounded behind. Nan Xun turned back and saw Meng Yi walking over. A smile appeared on her face. “Assistant Meng, are you hungry too?”

Meng Yi scratched her head in embarrassment. “I came down to pour some water. I smelled a fragrance and came over unconsciously.”

“I cooked too much. I’ll get you a bowl!”

“Alright, thank you.”

“It’s alright, you’re welcome.”

After cooking the noodles, Nan Xun fried two poached eggs.

Meng Yi took a few bites and nodded. “It tastes good.”

After they were done, Nan Xun handed Meng Yia few tissues. Thinking of what the village head had said during the day, Nan Xun asked Meng Yi, “Assistant Meng, I heard from the village head’s uncle that your

President Tang came here to look for me during the earthquake?”

Meng Yi was stunned. “Miss Nan doesn’t know?”

Nan Xun shook her head. “If Uncle Village Chief hadn’t mentioned it today, I really wouldn’t have known.”

Meng Yi said, “I wasn’t there at that time, but I heard Old Yu mention it. Oh, Old Yu is a friend of Young Master Tang. He drove Young Master Tang to Yuxi Village.”

“After Young Master Tang found out about your accident, he ignored the danger and ran up the mountain to find you. After finding you, he insisted on carrying you down the mountain. It was only when you got into

the ambulance that he was pulled away by Old Yu to the city.”

“At that time, his leg had a fever and could only be treated in the city. If not, if the infection was serious, he might have to amputate it again.” Meng Yi looked at Nan Xun and sighed slightly. “I’ve been by Young Master

Tang’s side for many years, but I’ve never seen him care so much about a person. He would rather have an accident than protect her.”

Hearing this, Nan Xun’s long eyelashes fluttered and she bit her lip hard. “We couldn’t contact Grandpa on the day he left. Was he in the hospital at that time?”

Meng Yi nodded.

Nan Xun’s heart tightened.

She had never thought that it had something to do with her that her grandfather had passed away and he had not appeared in time! She had never thought that he had rushed up the mountain to save her despite the

danger!.
