Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 1699: Chapter 1699: Could Dad Still Be Alive

If Nangong Xu remains firm and insists on Ansel inheriting, then the descendants of Nangong Longer will no longer debate.

The persistent clamor from below reflects the intentions of those above.

In the face of the inheritance issue, Nangong Ruyue remains the calmest.

Today, Jian Yufei visited Nangong Wenxiang again with her mother.

He has regained consciousness but is completely paralyzed, unable to move or speak.

No one dares to tell him about the current situation, fearing that any excitement might cost him his life.

The mother and daughter sit quietly by the bed, staring at him.

Nangong Wenxiang’s eyes remain calm, still carrying a hint of wisdom and sharpness, showing almost no signs of weakness from the torment of illness.

His eyes continuously fix on Jian Yufei, seeming to speak volumes.

Jian Yufei knows he probably has something to say, yet is unable to articulate it.

“Grandfather, did someone frame you in this incident? Blink once for yes, twice for no,” Jian Yufei asks proactively.

Nangong Wenxiang blinks twice.

Jian Yufei is a bit surprised; truly no one harmed him?

“What about last time? Was there foul play in your previous stroke?”

He blinks twice again.

Jian Yufei feels puzzled; the timing of his stroke seemed too coincidental.

Nangong Wenxiang continues to gaze at her, hoping Jian Yufei can interpret his eyes.

Jian Yufei feels helpless; she really can’t understand!

“Are you wanting to know about Ansel’s situation?” she tentatively asks.

Nangong Wenxiang blinks.

“Ansel is doing well, Ruan Tianling will protect him. You don’t have to worry about external matters, we can handle them.”

Nangong Wenxiang feels considerably reassured.

Suddenly, Nangong Ruyue takes out her phone and shows him a string of words she has typed.

[Was it you who started the fire back then? At this point, you don’t need to hide it from me anymore. Even if it was you, I forgive you. I just want to know the truth. Blink once for yes, twice for no if it wasn’t.]

Nangong Wenxiang blinks twice.

Nangong Ruyue breathes a sigh of relief; she too hopes it wasn’t her father who set the fire.

[Was it Nangong Xu?]

Nangong Wenxiang blinks once; it was indeed him!

Nangong Ruyue tightly grips her phone, her eyes filled with intense resentment.

Jian Yufei reads what she has written, feeling heavyhearted as well.

Her father, was he really burnt to death by Nangong Xu?

Nangong Ruyue obviously contemplates this question too.

[You once said there was no Zexin’s body at the scene, is it true?]

Nangong Wenxiang blinks once; Nangong Ruyue suddenly feels a surge of excitement, perhaps Zexin is still alive.

“Mom, do you think Dad could still be alive?” Jian Yufei quietly asks her.

Nangong Ruyue recalls what Nangong Xu once told her.

He said Xiao Zexin was in his grasp, is that true?

But if Zexin truly fell into his hands, how has he endured these past twenty years?

Nangong Ruyue’s mind can’t help but vividly recall Xiao Zexin’s sunny, handsome, tall, and upright figure.

That man, dazzling like the sun.

Wherever he was, the world was warm.

A man so exceptional should have lived freely and happily. Yet because of her, his world became filled with darkness and hardship.

She dearly hopes he is still alive; she would spend the rest of her life by his side, loving him, giving him happiness and joy, letting his world be filled with sunshine once more.
