Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 2331: Chapter 2331: I’d Rather Die Than Leave

Unexpectedly, he was so calm, Jian Yufei couldn’t help but mutter, ”You really take it easy.”

Nangong Wenxiang said, ”You all are so naive, trusting anyone easily. What’s wrong with him? What did he do?”

At the mention of this, Nangong Ruyue felt too upset to speak.

Jian Yufei stepped forward to answer, ”I suspect my dad was kidnapped by him. Even if it wasn’t him directly, he’s involved.”

”How did you know?”

Jian Yufei showed the photos and the letter to him, and said, ”That night, only he knew my dad’s identity. If it wasn’t him, who else could it be?”

Nangong Wenxiang remained calm.

”What are you planning to do?”

”Dad, are your men still loyal to you? I want to catch him,” Nangong Ruyue asked.

Nangong Wenxiang said, ”How would I know? Honestly, I’m useless now. Don’t think I can do anything; besides eating, drinking, defecating, and sleeping every day, I can’t do anything. Solve your problems yourselves, just keep yourselves safe.”

This was the first time he showed concern in his words to them.

Nangong Ruyue tucked him in, ”Dad, leave here with us. This place is no longer safe for us, come with us, okay?”

Jian Yufei also had this idea.

”Grandpa, come with us. We’ll treat your health in the future. Staying here, you’re definitely in danger.”

”I won’t leave!” Nangong Wenxiang’s tone was firm, ”Even if I die, I want to die here!”

Jian Yufei frowned, ”What’s the point? You can’t do anything now; it’s better to leave with us and enjoy your later years.”

”Leaving here is worse than killing me. Go on, handle your matters. Hardy has probably left already, find someone new to take care of me.”

”Grandpa—”

Nangong Wenxiang simply closed his eyes, ignoring them.

Jian Yufei had never seen such a stubborn old man.

What was so good about the Nangong Family that he wouldn’t leave even if it meant dying?

Nangong Ruyue pulled Jian Yufei away, ”Don’t blame your grandpa either. All along, he’s valued this place more than his life. He’s spent all his life’s efforts here; if I die, he’ll be sad for a while. If the Nangong Family is gone, he’ll immediately die.”

”Does he really care that much about this place?” Jian Yufei found it unbelievable.

Nangong Ruyue nodded, ”More than his life.”

”Mom, if you leave too, will grandpa be in danger?”

”Not likely. Hardy was the most likely to harm him, and he didn’t make a move. Others simply won’t. It seems your grandpa’s men are still loyal.”

If it wasn’t for their secret protection, Hardy wouldn’t have refrained from acting.

Thinking of Hardy, Nangong Ruyue’s face turned cold.

”I trusted him so much, never thought he would harm us! Your grandpa was right, truly, you can’t trust anyone!”

”What should we do now?” Jian Yufei asked.

Nangong Ruyue called over a servant, ”Find Hardy the butler, tell him I have an urgent matter to discuss.”

”Yes, madam.”

The servant respectfully retreated and immediately arranged for someone to find Hardy.

As they anticipated, Hardy was already gone.

Perhaps he knew he was exposed and had long planned his escape route.

Or, perhaps the letter Nangong Ruyue received today was deliberately timed to be delivered now.

But why choose today?
