Chapter 1032: Arriving at Gu Yanqi's Home
Just as Lin Yi was closely checking on Ning Chen and Gu Yanqi's condition, the vehicle suddenly stopped.
Lin Yi, not paying attention, tumbled out and fell to the ground.
The open door slammed against the wall, making a loud noise.
Ning Chen looked back; Lin Yi was lying on the ground, dazed from the fall.
If they were normally inside a room, they wouldn't have fallen out; there is only one situation where falling out is possible.
Ning Chen glanced at Facing Huo Jinglin, who slowly walked out of the room and pulled Lin Yi up, said nothing, and got out of the driver's seat.
Gu Yanqi also sensed the situation; looking at the two, her face turned red, wondering if they had seen her just peeking.
"Since we're all out, let's go."
Saying this, Ning Chen got off the RV first.
The three got out of the car and saw it was parked in front of a supermarket.
"Ning Chen, what are we doing here?"
Lin Yi was a bit dazed; were they here to stock up on food? But there was still plenty of food in the RV.
Ning Chen ignored Lin Yi, lifted his foot, and walked inside.
He pushed a cart to the fruit section and carefully selected fruits.
Watching Ning Chen push the cart and shop, the three exchanged glances, each detecting an expression of incredulity in the other's eyes.
"Good heavens, has Ning Chen been possessed, or am I seeing things? Could all this before me be an illusionary realm?"
It was no wonder Lin Yi was surprised; after all, the situation before him clashed terribly with Ning Chen's temperament.
Compared to Lin Yi's continued disbelief, Gu Yanqi, watching such a Ning Chen, felt a warmth in her heart.
She didn't know why she felt this way; perhaps it was just that seeing Ning Chen become more human made her happy?
Gu Yanqi quickly stepped forward and voluntarily took over the task of pushing the cart.
Lin Yi, having come to his senses, quickly pulled Facing Huo Jinglin to select various snacks, drinks, vegetables, and meats to replenish the RV's supplies.
The result of grabbing so many things was that the cashier, seeing four carts full of items, was filled with shock.
Just as the cashier's arm was about to ache from scanning the items, the four carts were finally finished.
Ning Chen handed his card to the cashier, didn't look at the total cost, took his card back, and pushed a cart away.
The benefit of driving oneself was pushing the small cart outside the RV without struggling to find bags to pack everything into and carry away.
Ning Chen went to the driver's seat, drove the car out, opened the RV door, let Gu Yanqi go up first, then Lin Yi took the lead and Facing Huo Jinglin the secondary role, placing all the items in the vehicle.
Afterwards, the two pushed the small cart to the designated spot and got on the RV.
Ning Chen opened the map again, set the destination, and activated the car's autonomous driving function.
With a girl in the car, the arrangement became much more meticulous; large cabinets and the refrigerator had every ingredient sorted and placed by category.
Lin Yi watched Gu Yanqi's busy figure and the pleasingly arranged cabinets, sighing, "Indeed, among big men, you still need a girl; otherwise, life gets too rough."
After busy work for a while, Gu Yanqi finished putting everything away; looking at her labor's result, she felt very satisfied.
At that moment, a piece of paper was handed over; Gu Yanqi instinctively took it, looked up, and saw Ning Chen's back as he headed toward the driver's seat.
Lin Yi, standing nearby, smiled, "Yanqi, don't be scared by Ning Chen; actually, he is cold outside but warm inside, a very good person."
Gu Yanqi gently pinched the paper in her hand and softly responded.
Of course she knew Ning Chen was a good person; not just a good person, but someone who made her heart beat faster involuntarily.
Thinking of this, Gu Yanqi's cheeks turned red involuntarily; she took a deep breath and sat down.
"Shouldn't those fruits be put away?"
Gu Yanqi saw several bags of fruit placed in the corner; she remembered she had already put away many fruits.
Lin Yi looked at that corner, then smiled, "No need, no need; these fruits were placed there specifically by Ning Chen; they must be for some purpose."
Hearing this, Gu Yanqi nodded and said nothing more.
The sky gradually darkened, and Gu Yanqi took a short nap in her room.
The car stopped slowly, and Gu Yanqi's door was knocked on rhythmically.
"Wait a moment."
Gu Yanqi hurriedly put on her clothes, unlocked and opened the door, and saw Ning Chen standing outside, saying nothing.
Seeing Gu Yanqi open the door, Ning Chen turned and walked outside.
Gu Yanqi hurriedly followed.
It was already dark outside; the four got out of the car, with Ning Chen, Lin Yi, and Facing Huo Jinglin each carrying two bags of fruit.
Looking at the scene outside, Gu Yanqi found it increasingly familiar.
When they arrived in front of an apartment, Gu Yanqi realized, "Isn't this my home?!"
At the same time, Ning Chen knocked on the door; a middle-aged woman opened it; seeing the three men outside, she did not open the door fully but looked at them warily.
"Who are you...?"
"Mom!"
Hearing Gu Yanqi's voice, the middle-aged woman immediately opened the door and saw Gu Yanqi behind the three.
Gu Yanqi rushed forward and embraced the middle-aged woman.
The middle-aged man, hearing the noise, also came out; seeing the two embracing, a flash of surprise crossed his eyes, but when he saw Ning Chen, that surprise turned to understanding.
Ning Chen and the others were invited into the house; after placing the brought fruits in the kitchen, the middle-aged woman took Gu Yanqi to her room, indicating she wanted to have a good chat.
The middle-aged man brewed tea for the three.
Ning Chen did not stand on ceremony; he picked up the cup, smelled it, then drank it sip by sip.
Seeing this, Lin Yi and Facing Huo Jinglin also picked up their teacups and tasted it sip by sip.
"I know your situation, and I know my daughter's situation."
Hearing the middle-aged man's words, Lin Yi nearly spat out his tea; he instinctively looked toward Xiang Ningchen.
He saw Xiang Ningchen drinking the tea in his hand with an unchanged expression.
"Xiang Ningchen, I want to ask: is Gu Yanqi her?"
The middle-aged man did not say who "her" was, but since he asked Xiang Ningchen, it went without saying who "her" was.
Xiang Ningchen said nothing; instead, he set down his teacup and nodded.
"Sigh~"
The middle-aged man's sigh came through.
"In fact, these past days, we have all treated her as our own daughter. When we found her, she was covered in blood, breathing in but barely breathing out. After we saved her, Gu Yanqi remembered nothing."
"My wife and I, having no children of our own in this life, and seeing that Gu Yanqi was so well-behaved it broke our hearts—even with her amnesia, she never threw tantrums—my wife and I discussed it and decided to adopt this pitiful child as our daughter."
