Chapter 756
When Su Hui returned to the old house, she found Gu Fan sitting on the sofa, leisurely watching the TV. A wave of anger welled up in her heart. She silently thought to herself, ’While I’m out there working hard, you’re just sitting here comfortably watching TV. Don’t you have a conscience?’
Without turning his head, Gu Fan asked, "Sister Su, you’re back?"
"Yeah, the business trip was a bit tiring." Su Hui certainly looked exhausted. Prior to this, she informed Gu Fan about her trip to investigate the disappearance from the primitive forest, saying she would be away for a few days.
Gu Fan paid no heed and continued watching TV, "So, how was the trip? Was it successful?"
"It was okay, just a bit tiring, I’ll go rest." With that, Su Hui proceeded to go upstairs.
"You should rest!" Gu Fan still didn’t look back. He changed the TV channel and then inquired casually: "By the way, has Zhang Yang and Yang Xinran been found?"
"No, but the search has left me exhausted..." At this point, realizing something, Su Hui quickly twisted around to look at Gu Fan, whose calm demeanor suggested he knew about this all along.
With a sudden realization, she gave Gu Fan a resigned smile. "I knew I couldn’t hide it from you!"
"But you still tried to keep it from me, and even snuck off to the forest to investigate." Gu Fan uttered with evident dissatisfaction, at which Su Hui rushed to his side, folding her hands in an apologetic gesture: "I’m sorry, Gu Fan, I didn’t want to hide it. My superiors ordered it. I’ve my own difficulties. After all, it’s my responsibility. I hope you understand. But how did you know?"
