When Chen Ningsheng saw Xu Xinchen's behavior, his eyes narrowed slightly. When he saw Lem standing next to him, his brows furrowed tightly.
Xu Xinchen rarely reacts like this. Could this be related to Lyme, who is beside him? With a vague guess in his mind, Chen Ningsheng stopped asking Xu Xinchen.
Instead, she nodded gently in response to Xu Xinchen's wish: "It's good that you're alright. Let's go back to the hotel as soon as the match is over. You should go back and get some rest; you must have been too tired yesterday."
Xu Xinchen nodded slightly and said "okay" before turning his attention back to the match. Lem scratched his head, said goodbye to them, and returned to his original position.
After finally making it to the end of the match, Xu Xinchen was worried that Lem would come over and talk to them again, so he grabbed Chen Ningsheng's hand and rushed back to the hotel.
Sure enough, Lyme arrived at Xu Xinchen's location several minutes later, only to find that they were gone. He then muttered to himself in surprise, "Could something really have happened? How come they rushed over so quickly?"
Xu Xinchen and Chen Ningsheng were unaware of what was happening on this side. After returning to the hotel and closing the door, Xu Xinchen immediately went to the sofa, took a few deep breaths, and clutched her wildly beating heart.
Seeing Xu Xinchen like this, Chen Ningsheng quickly grabbed a water glass and went to the kitchen attached to the hotel suite.
He drank a glass of warm water and came out, handing it to Xu Xinchen.
"Baby, drink some water first, and then slowly tell me what happened." Chen Ningsheng had already noticed that Xu Xinchen's condition had been off all day.
He hadn't asked further because the occasion wasn't right, but now that he was back at the hotel, he couldn't hold back any longer and had to find out what had happened before he could finally relax.
Xu Xinchen took the glass of water that Chen Ningsheng handed her and drank several mouthfuls. Because she drank it too quickly, she accidentally choked: "Cough cough, cough."
Chen Ningsheng reached out and patted Xu Xinchen's back, gently comforting her, "Baby, don't rush, take it slow."
Xu Xinchen shook her head, swallowed the mouthful of water in her mouth, put the water glass on the table, and then turned to look at Chen Ningsheng with a serious expression: "Ningsheng..."
Chen Ningsheng looked at Xu Xinchen and took the initiative to ask, "Is this matter related to Lem?"
Xu Xinchen nodded gently: "Do you remember I told you that although I was drugged and fell asleep yesterday, I still vaguely heard a man talking next to me?"
Chen Ningsheng naturally nodded. Of course he remembered that when he entered the hotel yesterday, there was a tripod on the floor specifically for placing cameras. At that time, he already suspected Xu Yaxin's purpose in kidnapping Xu Xinchen.
Later, Xu Xinchen said that he did hear a man's voice in his ear while he was in a daze. He immediately realized Xu Yaxin's purpose, and it was at that moment that his anger towards Xu Yaxin reached its peak.
Xu Xinchen pursed her lips, and after a long while, she said to Chen Ningsheng with a grim expression, "I felt that voice was very familiar at the time, but I had forgotten who its owner was, so for a moment..."
I hadn't remembered, but it only dawned on me when I saw Lyme just now—that voice was William's.
Chen Ningsheng was stunned at first, then his face turned extremely ugly. He never expected that the person who did this was William. Didn't William swear that he would separate his ex-wife from Xu Xinchen and that he would not make a mistake? What does it mean to do this now?
Xu Xinchen wasn't sure if it was right or wrong for her to tell Chen Ningsheng about this at this time, but she had a gut feeling that if she didn't say it, she might regret it later.
Chen Ningsheng stood there for a while, then reached out and patted Xu Xinchen's head, saying softly, "I know, baby. Leave this to me. You need to be careful and make sure you don't run into William at the competition venue."
Lyme is William's younger brother, and Chen Ningsheng was a little worried that William might use the excuse of watching Lyme's match to follow him to the match venue.
Xu Xinchen nodded with lingering fear. After thinking about this incident today, she had been in a state of extreme panic and couldn't relax while watching the game. She only felt a little better now that she was back in the hotel.
Chen Ningsheng smiled and patted Xu Xinchen's hair, then told Xu Xinchen to go back to her room to rest, while he walked to the hotel window.
After entering the room, Xu Xinchen did not close the door properly. She went to the bathroom to wash her face, and when she came out, she heard Chen Ningsheng talking on the phone by the window.
"Yes, that's the one. Cancel this partnership, and I'll find another one..."
As Xu Xinchen listened, his brows furrowed tightly. He wondered what impact Chen Ningsheng's sudden change of business partners would have on his business.
Thinking about this, Xu Xinchen couldn't help but feel a little regretful. If she had known, she would have just kept quiet. Why did she have to tell Chen Ningsheng about this? Now Chen Ningsheng even wants to change partners.
Xu Xinchen had been waiting in the room. As soon as Chen Ningsheng finished his call and came in, she immediately went up to him and put her arm around his waist: "Ningsheng..."
"Hmm?" Chen Ningsheng gently patted Xu Xinchen's hair, hugged her for a while, and then softly asked, "What's wrong, baby?"
Xu Xinchen looked up, her face filled with deep guilt: "I heard what I said just now, which forced you to change your business partner at the last minute. Will this have any impact on your business?"
Upon hearing Xu Xinchen's question, Chen Ningsheng burst out laughing: "No, it won't have any impact. This business partner is of questionable character, and nobody knows if he's the same way in business. If we don't replace him now, it will be too late for me to regret it later."
