Chapter 1344: Chapter 1344: The Wedding Cannot Be Changed

Her knees were scraped raw, but she felt nothing.

Propping herself up, she continued to run toward the castle where she lived.

Her high heels faltered on the ground, twisting her ankle painfully.

She took off the troublesome shoes and ran barefoot across the grass…

Sweating profusely when she reached her home, she leaned on the door frame, panting, “Where’s Ansel?”

The maid in the living room, seeing her disheveled state, was too shocked to speak.

Jian Yufei pushed past them and rushed upstairs.

“Ansel, Ansel!”

There was no sign of Ansel in the bedroom…or the study…

Nor in her own bedroom.

Jian Yufei’s heart was in turmoil as she pushed open each door one by one.

“Ansel, where are you, come out–”

Where had Ansel gone, wasn’t he supposed to be back?

Hadn’t they agreed that he would wait at home for her, where had he gone?

Fear fiercely gripped Jian Yufei’s heart.

She turned to go look for Nangong Wenxiang but collided with Qi Ruisen by the stairs.

“Where are you going?” Qi Ruisen asked lightly, holding her shoulder.

“Ansel is missing, that old man must have hidden him away, I’m going to find Ansel!” Jian Yufei pushed him away, but he grabbed her again.

“Ansel went back to school.”

Jian Yufei froze, “What did you say?”

Qi Ruisen’s eyes were dark as he lightly smiled, “Ansel has been sent away for a while, you don’t need to look for him, he will return after a while.”

Jian Yufei grabbed his collar fiercely, angrily saying, “Where did you send him? Give me back Ansel, now!”

“Calm down.”

“When did he leave, I’m going to find him!”

“Jian Yufei, calm down!” Qi Ruisen tightened his grip on her shoulders, “Now that you have recovered your memory, I won’t hide it from you, you won’t be able to see Ansel before our wedding.”

Jian Yufei froze again, staring intently at Qi Ruisen.

“How do you know…about my memory recovery?”

Qi Ruisen smiled, “The thing you said to the old man, it proved you’ve regained your memory.”

“What thing?” Was he also in the living room then?

“You said ‘When you took them away, they were all fine, how could one of them have died!’ That statement already proved you’ve regained your memory.”

So it was…

Qi Ruisen continued, “Everything the old man said is true, now you can only marry me.”

“Really?! So one of my children really is dead?”

“I’m not sure about that, but all these years, I have only seen Ansel. As for the other one…we can investigate slowly.”

His words raised a glimmer of hope in Jian Yufei’s heart.

“Are you saying the other child isn’t dead?!” she asked excitedly.

Qi Ruisen smiled apologetically “I’m not sure.”

“Then what are you sure about?!”

“I’m sure that our wedding date can’t be changed.”

“…” Jian Yufei let go of his collar dejectedly.

Previously, she had been colluding with Ruan Tianling to deceive Old Nangong, waiting for him to be fully prepared before the wedding to rescue her.

But now, she couldn’t leave with Ruan Tianling…

In the past, she selfishly abandoned her children for Ruan Tianling.

Then Ansel hated her, despised her. The other child’s fate was unknown, yet she knew nothing.

Now, could she harden her heart to leave the children behind, waiting for Ruan Tianling to rescue her and then leave this place?

If they left, what would become of Ansel?
