Chapter 729

"The future is still long, no rush, we will take it slow. This matter is my fault. You have never been wrong, and there is no need to blame yourself." Huo Jingyan coaxed her in an extremely gentle voice, just as he had in the past.

In the past, what Jiang Nannan liked most was for Huo Jingyan to coax her.

She would feel that she was Huo Jingyan's everything.

But now...

Jiang Nannan felt somewhat helpless, and tears uncontrollably welled up and spilled from her eyes.

The emotions suppressed for so long could no longer be controlled.

Huo Jingyan stepped forward, intending to pull Jiang Nannan into his embrace.

Yet Jiang Nannan, as if touched by a ferocious beast, retreated in terror, dodging Huo Jingyan's approach.

This retreat made the atmosphere between the two even more awkward and strained.

Jiang Nannan came to her senses and looked up at Huo Jingyan.

Huo Jingyan's expression jolted, his outstretched hand still frozen in mid-air.

"I... Huo Jingyan, can we both calm down a bit more? Are we really suited to keep going on like this? We have indeed both tried during this time, and there is indeed a long road ahead in the future, but is continuing to torture each other like this really what you and I want?"

Jiang Nannan could not hold back and finally said everything that was in her heart.

Huo Jingyan froze.

His gaze was fixed tightly on Jiang Nannan.

After an unknown amount of time, Huo Jingyan spoke in a deep voice: "I am calm enough now. You are my, Huo Jingyan's, wife; that point will absolutely never change."

Jiang Nannan suddenly felt it difficult to breathe.

——

Liu Hang stood before Jiang Nannan's room door and knocked several times, but could never get a response from Jiang Nannan.

Even if Jiang Nannan were asleep, she should have responded by now upon hearing the knocking.

Why was there still no response from Jiang Nannan?

Half an hour ago, she had even sent him a message saying she had bought things and was coming back.

He and Sheng An had waited for half an hour, but they did not see her bring the things over.

He had sent several messages and made calls in succession, but Jiang Nannan had neither answered the phone nor replied to the messages.

After he told Sheng An the situation, he called the hotel front desk and asked them to come and open the door.

Before the staff arrived, Sheng An arrived first.

"Has she not responded the whole time?" Sheng An asked.

Liu Hang nodded: "I've tried every method to contact her, but she hasn't responded. I'm not sure if she's in the room right now."

Sheng An's handsome face darkened, "Unless there is some special circumstance, she would not ignore calls."

Furthermore, knowing there was work this evening, it was even more impossible for Jiang Nannan to have turned off her phone.

Plus, there was no response to the knocking...

"Kick the door open," Sheng An commanded in a deep voice.

Liu Hang looked at Sheng An in disbelief, "You're not joking, are you? This door, can it be kicked open?"

Just as Sheng An was about to actually kick the door open, the staff arrived in time.

While the staff was opening the door, Liu Hang looked at Sheng An thoughtfully; he had previously only thought that Sheng An liked Jiang Nannan, but that this liking would be restrained before Jiang Nannan was divorced.

At the very least, it hadn't been discovered by Jiang Nannan yet.

But now...

Liu Hang suddenly felt, had he thought of Sheng An's feelings for Jiang Nannan too simply?

Kicking open a hotel door, such an irrational thing, was actually Sheng An's decision?

And knowing that the staff had already rushed over, Sheng An could still be like this...

Liu Hang felt somewhat uneasy.

After the staff opened the door, Sheng An was the first to rush inside.

The scent of some food wafted through the room.

Various types of local snacks and delicacies that had been packed to go were laid out on the table.

But Jiang Nannan was not in the room.
