Su Chuanlin looked at Nan Sheng, who was standing motionless in the snow, staring into the alley. Her thin shoulders were trembling. He felt a pang of sadness, and his brows furrowed into a deep frown.
He stepped forward and hugged the person who was crying silently: "Don't worry, he'll be alright. He loves our Sheng Sheng so much."
“Brother, he didn’t have to get hurt. It’s because of me! It’s because he heard Lu Zhicheng call my name! It’s all because of me, all because of me. Don’t you think he shouldn’t like me? Shouldn’t Yin Han have fallen for Nan Sheng…” Nan Sheng cried out in despair.
She had just heard Huo Yan's threatened words in the ward, and her face turned pale and her body felt cold.
It's all because of her.
Every time Yin Han was hurt, it was because of Nan Sheng.
"I...I saw him. He was curled up there, his hands desperately protecting his face. Blood was falling with the sticks those people were using, and it kept increasing. He couldn't fight back. Blood was still flowing from his abdomen...Where did he go? Brother, please tell me, please? Please tell me, please?"
Nan Sheng became increasingly agitated. She seemed to have lost all her strength in an instant. Her legs went weak, and she knelt on the ground, tightly gripping Su Chuanlin's hand, pleading with teary eyes.
Su Chuanlin helped her up, nestled her in his arms, and looked at Nan Sheng, who was crying her eyes out. He held back the tears in his eyes and said, word by word, "Sheng Sheng, you have to believe that if he can run away, then he must be alright. He will appear. Let's calm down first, okay?"
“He must need me right now, he must feel so wronged, he’s waiting for me to take him home… he’s waiting for me…” Nan Sheng fainted before she could finish her sentence.
"Sheng Sheng!" Su Chuanlin's body trembled, and he immediately picked her up and carried her away.
That evening, at the hospital.
Nan Sheng slowly opened her eyes on the hospital bed, staring at the ceiling as her thoughts slowly returned.
"Sheng Sheng, you're awake? Is anything bothering you?" Su Chuanlin pressed down on Nan Sheng's shoulders to prevent her from getting up.
"Did he find him?!"
Su Chuanlin shook his head under Nan Sheng's eager gaze.
Logically speaking, since Yin Han was injured, whether he did it himself or someone else saved him, going to the hospital was inevitable. Su Chuanlin even had people search every hospital in Nancheng, but they couldn't find anyone named Yin Han.
"Brother, prepare a private jet for me. I want to go back to Nancheng." Nan Sheng's beautiful doe eyes were filled with tears, but she refused to let them fall.
"Tell me any news about him immediately."
"Send someone to Grandma Li's house to take care of her. If it really can't be kept a secret any longer, then tell her. Just make sure nothing happens to Grandma."
...
Three hours later, Nan Sheng returned to her home in Nancheng.
As soon as she exited the airport, she saw Nan Lingtian and Yang Silin running towards her from the arrivals area.
The moment she saw her parents, tears streamed down her face like a broken string of pearls.
"Dad, Mom..." Nan Sheng's usually soft voice was now extremely hoarse. Her cry of "Dad, Mom" was pitiful and plaintive, as if she had suffered a great injustice.
Nan Lingtian and Yang Silin exchanged a tender look, then reached out and hugged their daughter, gently patting her back: "Shengbao, be good, Mommy and Daddy are here, it's okay, Mommy and Daddy know, we will help you find Xiaohan, okay?"
The moment Nan Sheng boarded the private jet, Su Chuanlin called them and explained the whole story.
Nan Sheng sobbed on her father's shoulder, her cries heart-wrenching and her voice hoarse.
"Dad, it's all my fault...it's all my fault. I could have taken him home...He got hurt because of me, sob sob sob...All his suffering comes from me..."
Nan Sheng whimpered in pain, as if someone was using countless tiny knives to scrape away at her heart, causing her to feel pain all over her body, to the point of suffocation. All she could do was desperately grab onto Nan Lingtian's clothes.
"Okay, okay, Dad knows. You can do whatever you want when you come back. It doesn't matter if you cripple or kill that Lu family brat. Dad will take care of you if anything happens."
Nan Sheng shook her head. No one in this world knew how sad she was.
She had already been reborn! She clearly knew how bad Lu Zhicheng was, and she clearly knew that Lu Zhicheng hated Yin Han, so why didn't she deal with him sooner?
She failed to protect her boy in both of her lifetimes.

In the Nan family's study.
Nan Lingtian looked at his daughter checking the documents his assistant had brought, a hint of surprise in his eyes.
"Shengbao, how do you know all this?" Nan Lingtian had no recollection of Nan Sheng ever being involved in company matters.
After completing her studies in her previous life, Nan Sheng joined her family's company at the young age of 22. Nan Lingtian took two years to help her rise from the bottom to the position of general manager. So now she can understand all the company's projects at a glance.
"I just glanced at it when I was bored, and I also often go to my brother's company on weekends." Nan Sheng made up a reason casually; of course, she wouldn't reveal that she was reborn.
Nan Lingtian nodded slightly, not doubting it much. He knew his daughter was smart from a young age and could learn things quickly.
"Dad, if you check the Lu family and the projects you've invested in, they are indeed perfect, without any problems."
But do you think that, given Lu Yuansheng's personality, he wouldn't take kickbacks from projects involving hundreds of millions of yuan?
Besides that, I want Dad to investigate how many shady deals the Lu family has been involved in behind the scenes, starting with their charitable work. Dad will uncover the Lu family's secrets. You should hand over what you find to the police. Once the Lu family company goes bankrupt, I want Dad to acquire it.
Nan Lingtian was astonished after hearing this, because Nan Sheng's tone and expression were extremely firm, as if she had known all along that the Lu family had problems.
It should be noted that the Lu family's company is not to be underestimated. Its development trend has been gradually rising in recent years, and its economic data is almost on par with the Nan family. If the Nan family were to acquire the Lu family, it would definitely become stronger and stronger.
"Dad, I know you have a lot of questions. I'll explain them to you later, okay? Right now, I just want to bring the Lu family down from its pedestal and find Yin Han."
Nan Sheng clenched her fists. She wanted to leave Lu Zhicheng with nothing, to make him a rat that everyone wanted to kill, and she wanted to torture him until he wished he were dead...
Nan Lingtian knew that his daughter had suddenly done all this because of Yin Han, and that she was in a very bad emotional state. He didn't say much, but there would be time later.
As a father, he naturally agrees to whatever his daughter wants.
After leaving the study and returning to her room, Nan Sheng immediately called Su Chuanlin.
The other party answered immediately.
"Brother, still haven't found him?"
"I'm sorry, Sheng Sheng."
Disappointed, Nan Sheng hung up the phone and, clinging to a sliver of hope, dialed Yin Han's number again.
The other party's phone was still switched off.
Nan Sheng felt that if she couldn't find the boy again, she really wouldn't be able to hold on any longer. She lay on the bed in despair, hugging herself tightly, and didn't move no matter how loud the knocking on the door got.
P.S.: Get ready, our boy is about to appear.
