Chapter 543 Fu Yunchuan tells Lu Mingzhu about Nanxing's identity (Page 12)
Upon hearing these words, Nanxing felt a complex mix of emotions that were difficult to describe.
"Fu Yunchuan, have you no shame?" Feng Jiejie, who was standing next to Fu Yunchuan, started cursing at him.
"Don't let her escape? Don't you find it ridiculous when you say that? She escaped? Was it her who wanted to escape back then? You forced her to leave, and now you dare to say the word 'escape'? Have you no shame?"
Feng Jiejie had been holding in her anger for the past few days, and now, after hearing Fu Yunchuan's shameless words, she was furious.
Fu Yunchuan's face stiffened slightly as he looked at Nan Xing's expressionless face without refuting Feng Jiejie's words.
It was indeed his fault back then.
Gu Yihe quickly walked up, glanced at Fu Yunchuan, and then spoke to Feng Jiejie.
"Let's talk about these old things when we get back. There are too many people here, and it's not good for anyone."
"Bad impact? What's wrong with this? He dared to do it, so why can't people talk about it?"
"It's not that I don't want you to speak, it's just that I think we can say it in a different way."
Nanxing grasped Feng Jiejie's wrist. "Don't be angry. It's not worth getting angry."
"I'm not angry, I'm heartbroken for you. Every time I see her, I can't help but think of how you almost died back then." Feng Jiejie glared at Fu Yunchuan resentfully.
Nanxing smiled reassuringly at her, "I know, I've always known that you care about me."
Fu Yunchuan froze; Feng Jiejie's words were enough to cause him a sharp pain in his heart.
Feng Jiejie gritted her teeth, looked at Nanxing, and then looked around to make sure that someone had noticed them. She had no choice but to look away.
“Fu Yunchuan, let me remind you as well.” Nanxing calmed Feng Jiejie down before coldly looking at Fu Yunchuan, “You’d better be prepared to think about how to clear Lu Mingzhu’s name. I won’t let her off so easily either.”
"As for restoring your identity, I think it will only bring you harm and no benefit, right? Everyone knows how different you have been towards Lu Mingzhu over the years, even during the two years we were married. So you'd better be prepared to clear your name."
Without waiting for Fu Yunchuan's reply, she pulled Feng Jiejie away. She knew that once they were back here, Fu Yunchuan wouldn't follow her around like he did abroad.
Fu Yunchuan watched Nanxing's retreating figure without saying a word. He wasn't worried about what Nanxing had just said; he was just saddened that the two of them had ended up like this.
"Let's go, get in the car first, there's something else I need to tell you."
Gu Yihe led Fu Yunchuan into the car, and thinking of Feng Jiejie's appearance just now, he felt a deep sense of helplessness.
Every time he felt that his relationship with Feng Jiejie was making some progress, the two would always have another conflict because of Nanxing and Fu Yunchuan, and their relationship would stagnate or even regress.
But he didn't blame Nanxing and Fu Yunchuan. He was just a little troubled because if things continued like this, no one would be happy, especially Fu Yunchuan, who was in such a half-dead state.
"What? Were you really provoked by those words just now?" Gu Yihe asked, noticing the somewhat dejected look on Fu Yunchuan's face after he got into the car.
Fu Yunchuan took out Gu Yihe's cigarettes directly from the small drawer in the car.
"Hey, we're in the car, can you please not smoke? I'm trying to stay healthy lately."
Gu Yihe was just joking casually; he didn't really mean that smoking in the car was forbidden. He mainly didn't want Fu Yunchuan to smoke so much.
After all, Fu Yunchuan's body is like a large tree with a hollow trunk. It may look like it still has lush foliage, but it will fall over at the slightest breeze.
"I won't smoke." Fu Yunchuan said, putting the cigarette in his mouth. He didn't actually smoke; he just wanted the taste of tobacco to calm himself down.
"Only now do I realize how terribly wrong I was by what I did back then, and now I'm filled with regret."
Gu Yihe had just stepped on the gas when he heard Fu Yunchuan's self-reproachful words. His first reaction was that it was a good thing he was driving himself to pick him up today. If the driver had heard Fu Yunchuan's tone at this moment, he would have been terrified.
I never expected that the renowned Fu Yunchuan would have such a side.
As a friend, he felt helpless and a little heartbroken, but that was all, because they were both outsiders in this matter and could only say that they were powerless to help.
"It's been so long, it's no use thinking about it now, it's too late."
"Too late?" Fu Yunchuan's voice suddenly became more serious, filled with intense confidence.
"It's not too late, not too late at all. At least it's not too late now. As long as Nanxing is still by my side and alive, it's never too late."
Gu Yihe was speechless for the first time at Fu Yunchuan's words. Just one sentence he was saying he regretted it, and the next sentence he was so blindly confident. Perhaps only Fu Yunchuan could do that.
But thinking about what Fu Yunchuan just said, it seems I can understand it.
Compared to their previous belief that Nanxing was dead, it's definitely not too late now, especially with two children involved. No matter how you look at it, Fu Yunchuan has made a huge profit.
“Nanxing and Lin Ke are divorced. He’s finally back to being Nanxing,” Fu Yunchuan added.
Gu Yihe could clearly sense the happiness and relief in Fu Yunchuan's tone.
Judging from the current situation, Gu Yihe can understand Fu Yunchuan's relief. After all, as long as Nanxing refused to admit that she was Nanxing and maintained her marital relationship with Lin Ke, it was a constant torment and pain for Fu Yunchuan.
However, judging from Nanxing's current attitude towards Fu Yunchuan, Fu Yunchuan seems to be celebrating too soon.
"She did divorce Lin Ke, but have you ever considered that her divorce from Lin Ke is precisely the time for her to settle accounts with you? Didn't you just hear her say that she wouldn't let Lu Mingzhu and you get away with it so easily?"
"Lu Mingzhu has gone too far in targeting the children and Feng Jiejie, and she's now trying to link all of this to you. She's also going to bring up the whole car accident from back then. Do you know what kind of public opinion you'll face then?"
"So Yun Chuan, her divorce wasn't because she still had hope for you; on the contrary, she came to settle scores, to take revenge, and to seek justice for herself back then."
"I know, and I don't intend to stop her," Fu Yunchuan said calmly.
"What do you mean?" Gu Yihe didn't quite understand.
"Because this is something I owe her, and I also need to make her vent her anger, bring everything to light, and find the right outcome so that I can eliminate her resentment towards me."
Fu Yunchuan stared ahead, his deep gaze remaining calm. He had long been mentally prepared for all of this.
Gu Yihe was somewhat surprised after hearing this, not because he was surprised that Fu Yunchuan would do such a thing, but because he was surprised that Fu Yunchuan could say such things.
“I feel like your mindset is different now. It's like you've suddenly become enlightened. Before, you wouldn't listen to anything we said.”
"Because I realized how deeply I hurt Nanxing back then, and I also realized that I seem to have been trapped in a huge conspiracy all these years. Once you understand one point, your perspective on many things will change."
“You’re absolutely right. I’m happy for you that you’ve changed like this. As for whether Nanxing will forgive you or stay with you, I think…”
"Whether she forgives me or not, she will always be my wife, Fu Yunchuan's wife," Fu Yunchuan interrupted Gu Yihe.
Gu Yihe paused, then stopped talking. He was afraid that if he continued, Fu Yunchuan would become too emotional, and who knew what problems might arise.
"So, you deliberately had Han Feng deal with Nan Xing's people, so that Nan Xing would discover that you were also investigating what happened back then? And unintentionally passed on some information you already knew to Nan Xing?"
"She doesn't believe me now; she only believes the information she's gathered from her own investigation. I have no other choice but to do this."
Gu Yihe nodded thoughtfully, "Then what do you plan to do about Lu Mingzhu?"
Fu Yunchuan remained silent for a long time, so long that Gu Yihe thought Fu Yunchuan wouldn't answer, and that Fu Yunchuan hadn't yet figured out how to arrange things for Mu Mingzhu.
But just when Gu Yihe had given up hope that Fu Yunchuan would answer, he heard Fu Yunchuan's questioning voice.
"Perhaps the person who saved me back then wasn't Lu Mingzhu."
"What?" Even Gu Yihe was shocked by Fu Yunchuan's words. If he hadn't reacted quickly, he would have stepped on the gas and sped toward the flower bed on the other side.
"What did you say? The person who saved you back then wasn't Lu Mingzhu? Do you know what you're saying? This is truly shocking."
If Jiang Bai were here, he would definitely nod vigorously in agreement with Gu Yihe's words, because he was also extremely shocked when he heard it, and even doubted whether there was something wrong with his ears.
"No, why are you suddenly bringing this up? Did you discover something?" Gu Yihe asked, trying to calm himself down.
This is indeed extremely shocking and appalling.
All these years, how Fu Yunchuan has treated Lu Mingzhu and how he has compromised time and time again for her sake have all stemmed from the fact that Lu Mingzhu saved Fu Yunchuan back then.
It's shocking to suddenly say that Lu Mingzhu didn't save Fu Yunchuan back then.
"I guess so, but it's not certain yet. I need some time."
Fu Yunchuan squinted as he answered, and finally, as if he had really hit a nerve or thought of something that was irritating, he bit down hard and cracked the cigarette open. The strong nicotine flavor that filled his mouth made his head clear for a moment.
Gu Yihe finally understood why Fu Yunchuan had suddenly changed so much; it turned out he had discovered something.
"No wonder you've changed so much; I thought you'd finally figured it out."
“My change of heart was not because I discovered that Lu Mingzhu was not the one who saved me, but because I realized how deeply I had hurt Nanxing.”
Gu Yihe was even more surprised to hear this, but it was also a good thing.
His face initially held a smile of relief that Fu Yunchuan had finally understood, but soon he seemed to realize something, slammed on the brakes, and looked seriously at Fu Yunchuan in the passenger seat.
“If Lu Mingzhu wasn’t the one who saved you back then, then all these years you, or rather we all, have been living in a huge conspiracy—a conspiracy targeting our four families.”
"Especially related to these patients, and the Bai family members from back then, right?"
Although it is a question, the tone is confident.
Fu Yunchuan turned his head to look at him, but did not answer, and a silent conversation ensued.
Gu Yihe restarted the car after a while, and the car fell silent.
Fortunately, the lane I was on was outside the airport area, and there weren't many vehicles on it, nor were there any cars following behind. Otherwise, if I had slammed on the brakes, there would definitely have been a car accident.
After a long while, Gu Yihe remembered that he still had something to tell Fu Yunchuan.
"Why don't you go online and take a look? It'll be quite lively online around the time your plane takes off."
Fu Yunchuan took out his phone. He hadn't turned it on since boarding the plane, so he naturally didn't know what was happening online.
Instead of looking up what happened online, he directly opened Jiang Bai's chat window. Sure enough, there were many messages sent to him, summarizing what had happened online.
The further down he looked, the uglier his expression became, eventually becoming so somber it could be described as if ink were dripping from it. There were even photos of the three children at the end.
