Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 1681: Chapter 1681: Don’t Let Him Inherit the Family

What’s it got to do with Ansel?

Jian Yufei looked at them.

The old man was about to step forward and talk to her when Nangong Xu spoke coldly, ”I said, let’s not discuss this matter for now. Don’t worry about it, you should go back.”

The old man seemed a bit apprehensive of him, so he had to keep silent, saying nothing, and left with the others.

Jian Yufei asked Nangong Xu indifferently, ”What did he want to say?”

Nangong Xu smiled, ”Nothing much, just about inheriting the Nangong Family. Ansel’s not here right now, there’s no use talking about it.”

”My grandfather isn’t dead yet, and they’re already thinking of replacing him?” Jian Yufei’s tone was icy.

Nangong Xu smiled faintly, ”That’s why I said there’s no rush. You don’t have to pay attention to them. But Yufei, Ansel must come back. Since they’ve got this idea, they won’t let it go. If Ansel doesn’t return, who will inherit this family?”

Jian Yufei was stunned; she really wanted to say, don’t you want to inherit it?

”I’ll go check on the old man.” Nangong Xu walked into the hospital room, with Jian Yufei, Nangong Ruyue, and Qi Ruisen following behind.

Nangong Wenxiang lay there with an oxygen mask on, unconscious.

During this time, he had lost a lot of weight. Who would have thought that someone who once commanded such power would have a time of aging, frailty, lying comatose in bed?

Nangong Xu didn’t stay long before leaving, and Qi Ruisen also left to attend to his own affairs.

In the hospital room, only Jian Yufei and Nangong Ruyue remained to keep watch.

Nangong Ruyue took out her phone and wrote: [Ansel can’t be allowed to come back, don’t let him inherit the family.]

Jian Yufei asked puzzled, ”Why?”

She indeed wouldn’t let Ansel come back, but why did her mother also have this thought?

[Once he inherits, he’ll face endless danger, and he might end up dead. Your grandfather’s fallen sick, with no one to protect him, he chose the right time to escape.]

Jian Yufei’s expression grew somber, and she nodded, ”I know what to do.”

Only then did Nangong Ruyue feel relieved, but she also worriedly wrote: [Find an opportunity to escape too. Nangong Xu won’t do anything to me, and with your grandfather like this, he won’t make a move either. With you both safe, I’ll be at ease.]

Jian Yufei suddenly felt as if the world was about to change.

She remembered waking up a few months ago, thinking then that this was Nangong Wenxiang’s world, and believing it would always remain so.

But in such a short time, everything was going to change.

Just like an ancient emperor, suddenly falling seriously ill, the once stable empire begins to shake.

Jian Yufei stayed in the hospital room for a while, then Nangong Ruyue told her to go back, saying she could handle it alone.

Jian Yufei hurried off to inform Ruan Tianling, without lingering much.

As she walked out of the hospital room, she found Anan and a few bodyguards still standing outside.

She thought they had all left with Qi Ruisen...

”The young master ordered us to ensure your safety,” Anan said indifferently.

Jian Yufei nodded, ”Let’s go back.”

Returning to the castle she stayed in, she locked herself in her bedroom and picked up her phone to call Ruan Tianling immediately.

Last time, he refused to answer, who knows if he’ll pick up this time.

The phone rang once, and no one answered.

Jian Yufei felt as if a thousand-pound stone weighed on her heart, making it hard to breathe.

His phone is always with him 24/7. If he doesn’t answer, it’s definitely because he doesn’t want to, not because he didn’t hear it.

Exhausted in both body and spirit, Jian Yufei directly wrote a text message and sent it over.
