Chapter 528: Xiang Nanfang’s determination, searching for love from thousands of miles away
Zhou Jianguo and Han Huifang were naturally deeply impressed by Xiang Nanfang, not to mention Qiao Sanli, who knew very well what kind of feelings Xiang Nanfang had for Zhou Chen.
Qiao Sanli thought about it and decided to tell Xiang Nanfang.
"There was a call last night, but it wasn't him. He said that Zhou Chen only had a high fever and was not infected. Then he hung up without saying a few words."
Xiang Nanfang asked: "Who made the call? Is it reliable?"
Qiao Sanli was not sure: "I heard from his introduction that he was Zhou Chen's assistant, and now he is responsible for taking care of Zhou Chen."
Xiang Nanfang said in a deep voice: "I didn't hear Zhou Chen's voice, so I feel uneasy after all. The epidemic situation in the capital is so serious now, and the medical conditions are also very poor. Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the worst."
She works within the system and is the head of the Jinling Propaganda Department. She has a deep understanding of this epidemic. She feels that Zhou Chen cannot even make a phone call, which means that the situation must be serious.
Of course Qiao Sanli was also worried: "But what can we do? We can't see him at all now. I also thought about going to the capital to look for him, but no one let me go."
Although Xiang Nanfang is her love rival, they are also worried about Zhou Chen at the moment, so there are some things she can't say to others, but she can say them to Xiang Nanfang.
"To be honest, if Zhou Chen has any shortcomings, I don't know if I can survive."
Xiang Nanfang looked at Qiao Sanli and said seriously: "They are right. No matter how Zhou Chen is doing now, you can't go. You have to stay and take care of his parents and your children. If Zhou Chen knows
, I won’t let you go either.”
"But I can't confirm his condition, so I can't feel at ease. Now I have insomnia every night. I don't know how long I can hold on."
For Qiao Sanli, she has become accustomed to Zhou Chen's presence in the past ten years. It's not like Zhou Chen never left her in the past, but she knew that Zhou Chen was safe during those times and they communicated with each other on the phone.
But this time, after so many days of no contact, and at this time of the epidemic, if she didn't have to worry about her parents-in-law and two children, she felt like she would really collapse.
Seeing Qiao Sanli's heartbroken look, Xiang Nanfang felt uncomfortable. Her current mood was not much better than Qiao Sanli's.
"I go."
"What?"
Qiao Sanli looked at Xiang Nannan in shock.
Xiang Nannan said calmly, "You need to take care of your uncle, aunt and two children, but I don't have so many worries. I can go to the capital."
"You're going to the capital?"
Qiao Sanli was shocked: "Sister Nanfang, you should be very clear about the current situation in the capital. If you go to the capital, you will face great risks, and the hospital where Zhou Chen is located is a high-risk area."
"No, you can't go. This is our family's business. Sister Nanfang, I know what you think, but you can't put yourself in danger because of Zhou Chen's matter."
She knew that when Xiang Nannan said he was going to the capital, it must be for Zhou Chen. If it were normal times, if other women were so affectionate towards her husband, she would definitely feel uncomfortable.
But now Zhou Chen didn't know the situation, which, to put it harshly, was uncertain about life or death. Apart from being a little bit uncomfortable, she felt more shocked.
She wants her husband to be safe, but she doesn't want Xiang Nanfang to put herself in danger because of her husband.
Xiang Nanfang said firmly: "I must go to the capital. I just want to confirm Zhou Chen's safety. Sanli, don't worry, I will never destroy your marriage with Zhou Chen."
Qiao Sanli said eagerly: "Sister Nanfang, you misunderstood. I didn't think so. I really don't want you to risk going to the capital. If Zhou Chen knew about it, he would definitely not let you do that.
.”
"This is my own decision, Sanli. To tell you the truth, I do love Zhou Chen very much, but Zhou Chen chose you. I respect his choice and will not destroy your relationship. The only thing I want to do now is
The thing is to confirm his safety, I hope you can understand and don't misunderstand."
Xiang Nanfang is a very arrogant person at heart. Although Qiao Sanli is now famous and very capable, she considers herself to be no worse than Qiao Sanli, and she does not bother to interfere with Zhou Chen and Qiao Sanli as a third party.
He will not try to destroy their marriage to achieve his own goals.
There is only one thing she wants to do now, and that is to see Zhou Chen safe and sound. As long as Zhou Chen is alive and well, that is more important than anything else.
Qiao Sanli was greatly shocked: "Sister Nanfang, you, you really don't have to do this."
Xiang Nanfang was able to risk everything for Zhou Chen and show such deep affection that even she was shocked.
You must know that Xiang Nanfang is now the director of the Propaganda Department. At her age, her future prospects are limitless.
But for Zhou Chen, she could do this. If she hadn't heard it with her own ears, Qiao Sanli wouldn't have believed it.
At this moment, she finally understood why her husband Zhou Chen was fearless, but he did not dare to have too much contact or meeting with Xiang Nannan.
If Zhou Chen were not her husband, she would have to admit that Xiang Nannan and Zhou Chen were really a perfect match.
"Sanli, I have made a decision. You tell your uncle and aunt, and I will leave first."
Xiang Nanfang picked up her bag and was about to leave. Once she made a decision, she would do it quickly and without any hesitation.
When she reached the door, she suddenly turned her head.
"Sanli, I only have one request. Just in case, I mean just in case, if something unfortunate happens to Zhou Chen and I...forget it, why are you saying these unlucky words?"
Before he finished speaking, Xiang Nanfang left the Zhou family villa directly, leaving Qiao Sanli standing there, staring blankly.
Zhou Jianguo and Han Huifang came down from upstairs. Seeing Qiao Sanli in a daze, they asked: "Sanli, has the south left?"
"Um."
"What did she say?"
"She said she was going to the capital to find Zhou Chen."
"What!"
…………
After Xiang Nannan left, she began to make preparations. She first asked for leave, and then called Song Qingyuan and asked him to find a way to send her to the capital.
She didn't dare to let her family know, because she knew that once her parents and eldest brother found out, they would definitely not let her go, so she could only find her former "little brother" Song Qingyuan.
When Song Qingyuan saw Xiang Nannan and learned that Xiang Nannan wanted him to find a way to send her to the capital, he almost jumped out of fright.
"Sister, are you right? With the current situation in the capital, where do you want to go? What are you thinking about?" Song Qingyuan asked eagerly.
Xiang Nannan said firmly: "I'm going to find someone, and I will leave after making sure he is safe."
Song Qingyuan asked in confusion: "Who made you want to go to the capital regardless of the danger?"
Xiang Nanfang was silent for a long time, and finally uttered a name: "Zhou Chen."
"Zhou Chen? Qiao Yicheng's brother-in-law, the Zhou Chen who won the Nobel Prize?"
Song Qingyuan's face was full of shock. He never expected that Xiang Nanfang would actually name this person.
"Um."
After receiving a positive reply, Song Qingyuan was even more shocked: "You actually know Zhou Chen, what is your relationship with him, and why do you risk going to the capital to confirm his situation?"
Because of Qiao Yicheng, he and Zhou Chen have known each other for more than ten years. Their relationship is not close, but they have drank together many times, and later they also conducted many exclusive interviews with Zhou Chen with Qiao Yicheng.
But he never knew that Zhou Chen and Xiang Nanfang were also old acquaintances, and their relationship seemed to be unusual.
Xiang Nanfang said: "You don't have to worry about my relationship with him. Just find a way to send me to the capital, and to..."
Song Qingyuan was shocked and said: "You are really crazy. Xiang Nanfang, you are really crazy. What is your relationship with Zhou Chen? Is he worthy of letting you do this?"
"I told you not to worry about it, just tell me whether to help me or not."
"I understand even if you don't tell me. You are still not married at such an old age. Is it because of him? You like Zhou Chen, so you want to go to the capital to find him, right?"
Song Qingyuan was very smart and guessed the relationship between Xiang Nannan and Zhou Chen at once.
"Sister, what's wrong with you? He's already married and has children, but you still refuse to get married because of him. Now that something happened to him, you still go to the capital to look for him. What's your behavior? Are you like a moth rushing to the flame? ?”
Xiang Nanfang said in a deep voice: "Song Qingyuan, we grew up together and have known each other for so many years. I have never asked you. This time, let me ask you to do me a favor, okay?"
Song Qingyuan wanted to refuse, but when he saw this woman who had been strong since she was a child and looked like a big sister, he found that he didn't know how to refuse.
"does it worth?"
"worth."
Xiang Nannan's affirmative answer left Song Qingyuan speechless.
After a long time, Song Qingyuan raised his head and said, "Okay, I'll help you. I'll take you to the capital in person and stay with you the whole time."
"Qingyuan, you don't have to send me off in person, you just need to help me find a car and help me hide this matter."
Although Xiang Nannan wanted to find Zhou Chen, he didn't want Song Qingyuan to take such a risk.
Song Qingyuan snorted coldly: "I don't trust you to go alone. Either I will accompany you, or you will think of other ways, but if you don't let me follow, I will go back and tell Uncle Xiang immediately."
"Song Qingyuan."
Xiang Nanfang cursed angrily: "You have grown up, haven't you? How dare you threaten me?"
Song Qingyuan shrugged and said: "Of course, you are the one asking me for something now. Anyway, I am alone, so I can be your companion. I can go to the capital to see the situation. Just tell me whether you agree or not."
Xiang Nannan sighed: "Qingyuan, you really don't need to follow. The capital is very risky now, and I can't harm you."
"You can go, why can't I go? If I go, I can still protect you. The capital is quite chaotic now, and it's very inconvenient for you as a woman."
"I have studied in the capital for so many years, and I am much more familiar with it than you are."
"I don't care. Anyway, I'll leave my words here. If you agree, we can go back and clean up before leaving. If you don't agree, I will send you home. It's your choice."
"Qingyuan, really, I beg you, you better not go."
"Okay, I'll take you home now. It just so happens that I haven't seen Uncle Xiang for a long time."
"Okay, okay, okay, I guess you're good, I'll listen to you."
Xiang Nannan knew very well that once her parents found out, it would be impossible for her to leave, so she had no choice but to agree to Song Qingyuan.
"But I have to say it beforehand. When you get to the capital, you are not allowed to run around. You must obey me in everything. Do you understand?"
Song Qingyuan curled his lips: "The management is quite strict."
So, after the two simply packed up their clothes and other necessities, they immediately drove to the capital.
capital.
Zhou Chen was bored reading in the isolation room. He no longer had a fever, but for the sake of safety, the superiors still let him stay in the isolation room for a few more days and let him have a good rest.
Zhou Chen couldn't help it and could only stay in the lounge. He also had someone notify his family. He thought there would be no problem, so he stayed patiently.
In fact, with his help, the pneumonia virus has made a big breakthrough this time, and it won't be long before greater progress can be made.
It is precisely because of this that the mortality rate among those infected this time is very low. So far, there are only more than a hundred cases, and most of them are old, weak, sick and disabled.
More importantly, Zhou Chen knew very well that summer was coming soon. Once summer arrived, the harm of this virus would be reduced by several levels, and it would be easier to treat by then.
While he was reading seriously, someone suddenly came to his door and informed him of the news.
"Someone is looking for me?"
"Xiang Nanfang, are you sure that's the name?"
"Tell her that I'm fine and ask her to leave immediately."
…………
Zhou Chen never expected that his family would be so worried during the days when he lost contact, and the phone call he made only provided some comfort.
Xiang Nanfang even traveled all the way from Jinling to the capital, which moved him but also made him very anxious.
Although the epidemic is now under control, there are still risks, and he does not want Xiang Nannan to take any risks.
But not long after, the messenger came back and told him that Xiang Nannan said that she would not leave until she could see him, and that she would only consider leaving if she was sure that he was safe.
Zhou Chen has nothing to do about this. He can't go out yet, and he also understands Xiang Nanfang's character. It's impossible for others to persuade him.
While he was helpless, he also felt extremely moved. The fact that Xiang Nanfang could drop everything to come to him at this time was enough to show how deep his feelings for him were.
At this moment, he really wanted to hold Xiang Nannan in his arms and give him good pain.
It was not that he had no feelings for Xiang Nanfang, but he could restrain himself. But at this moment, he felt that he could no longer restrain himself. He desperately wanted to go out and see Xiang Nanfang.
"Oh, wait a little longer, Nanfang, you really gave me a big problem."
At this moment, he wanted to travel back to ancient times. In ancient times, as long as you were rich and capable, you could marry as many women as you wanted.
After sitting quietly for a while, he communicated with his superiors again and asked them to find a way to inform his family that he was really fine and that they should not worry too much.
Time passed day by day, and finally today, it was confirmed that Zhou Chen was indeed fine, and he was released and freed.
After regaining his freedom, he immediately asked for leave, then left the hospital and went to the hotel where Xiang Nannan was staying.
