472 There was not much time left in chapter 476

Machine Translation

Gu Ruochu had made up her mind to spend the rest of her life with Huo Nanchen. He pulled her into his arms and carried her upstairs.

"Nanny Zhang, make some light dishes and bring them up."

"All right."

Nanny Zhang went into the kitchen and started preparing the dishes. She then asked a servant to carry them upstairs for the couple.

As they were eating, Gu Ruochu held the chopsticks in her hand and paused as if she had remembered something. "I want to go to An Shaosi's house tomorrow to visit Yang Xi."

Huo Nanchen raised his eyes and glanced at her. "You haven't had much rest over the past few days. You shouldn't rush to see Yang Xi. Besides, An Shaosi hasn't imprisoned her. She's able to come and go into his villa as she pleases."

"Then, I'll ask Yang Xi out tomorrow."

Gu Ruochu felt at ease when she heard that An Shaosi was not restricting Yang Xi's freedom.

"All right, be a good girl and finish your meal." Huo Nanchen pointed at her bowl of rice, which was still half full.

Due to the stress that she had endured over the last few days, Gu Ruochu's appetite had suffered.

"..."

Gu Ruochu sat on the small sofa in the bedroom and saw that Rong Xiao had sent her a WeChat message. She opened it and saw that it was the address to another WeChat account.

[Jin Xiao]: This is your original WeChat account and its password. Try logging in.

Gu Ruochu knew that he was referring to the old Gu Ruochu's account. Perhaps she would find out the identity of the person who had transferred money into her account.

[Unique me 7]: You've worked hard. I'll give you some pocket money. Be good, and don't thank me too much.

[Jin Xiao]: Fat Tiger, are you looking down on me?

[Unique me 7]: Today, the Big Bear will bully the Fat Tiger!

"..."

After chatting with Rong Xiao for a while, Gu Ruochu logged out of her WeChat and logged into the old Gu Ruochu's account.

There were only seven contacts in her WeChat account.

Gu Ruochu looked at the contacts slowly and found nothing suspicious with the names on the list.

After seeing that there was nothing interesting in the account, Gu Ruochu was just about to log out when she saw the profile picture of one of the contacts light up.

The contact was only saved with the letter 'N.' Gu Ruochu wanted to strike up a conversation with the contact, hoping to find out who it was. She did not expect the other party to text first.

[N]: You're finally online.

Gu Ruochu panicked. She did not want to get exposed.

After some thought, she replied, "Mmm."

[N]: Why aren't you using the money in your account? Are you still angry with me like a child? The car accident was just an act. Did you take it seriously?

Gu Ruochu's heart pounded when she read the text. A terrifying realization dawned on her.

She was chatting with the person who had deposited the money into her account.

Gu Ruochu did not know how to respond.

Why had the mysterious individual deposited such a large amount of money into her account?

'The car accident was just an act. What does that mean?'

A bold thought suddenly crossed Gu Ruochu's mind. The mysterious individual had no idea that the original Gu Ruochu had died in the car accident.

However, Gu Ruochu did not know what her relationship to the mysterious individual was.

Was he a friend? An ex-lover?

Gu Ruochu looked at message again and clicked on the contact's profile. She realized that it was completely blank. There were no updates on contact N's WeChat account.

Just as Gu Ruochu was trying to figure out how to identify the contact, she received another message. "Don't forget what you should do. This is the last time I'll contact you. Remember, there isn't much time left."

Before Gu Ruochu could reply, contact N's profile picture turned gray.
