1907 Your Business 1
However, for some unknown reason, Huang Fu had left without bidding her farewell and had been absent for two days. This was the cause of her deep concern. Her worry had grown so overwhelming that she disregarded Huang Fu’s warning and ventured into the mist. There was an inexplicable feeling within her that he should be inside.
However, she hadn’t antic.i.p.ated the thickness of the mist. It was so dense that she couldn’t discern her surroundings, and the frigid temperatures threatened to render her unconscious.
Were it not for Huang Fu pulling her out, she would have indeed succ.u.mbed to unconsciousness.
Gu Chaoyan couldn’t fathom the consequences had she fallen into a comatose state.
Apart from Huang Fu, no one was aware of the existence of this s.p.a.ce, and her sudden disappearance would undoubtedly cause anxiety among Huaijin and the others.
As she contemplated the potential ramifications, beads of sweat formed on her forehead.
It was no wonder Huang Fu had been so infuriated.
Gu Chaoyan was acutely aware of her misjudgment.
“I’m sorry,” she uttered, her first apology in a long while. She had always been a considerate person, but this was a grave mistake on her part that warranted an apology.
Upon hearing the apology, Huang Fu’s anger subsided, and he slumped down.
The arrogant and aloof Feng Le had never heard such words before.
And as he grew more concerned, his mind became clearer.
Her panic had been born out of genuine worry for him.
That realization deepened his own uneasiness. He hadn’t expected it to be so effortless—simply sharing a few things and teaching her a few lessons. It was that straightforward.
Huang Fu was engulfed by a mixture of complicated emotions.
He had no idea how to navigate their current relations.h.i.+p.
“Where have you been these past two days?” Gu Chaoyan inquired, wiping the sweat from her brow. “Why didn’t you inform me? I was so worried! Didn’t you mention that you can’t stay outside for too long? Why were you gone for two days? And why didn’t you mention the teleportation token the other day?”
On that day…
Huang Fu tried to recall what happened back then.
He had no choice but to push her out when he realized what was going on.
Later, he spent the past two days healing himself.
He had used up too much of his energy back in Snow Territory, so he often ran into problems.
Now he had recovered, and he was about to walk out when she ran into this dumba.s.s that took her back to the fog. That was what she was forced to do.
However…
He did not want to tell her what was going on.
Instead of providing a direct explanation, Huang Fu responded hesitantly, “I had some urgent matters to attend to, so I didn’t have the opportunity to inform you. These past two days have been extremely busy for me.”
“….”
“It won’t happen like this again in the future,” he a.s.sured her.
“….”
“Do you need anything from me lately?” Huang Fu inquired.
“I have already established a partners.h.i.+p with Haitian Auction House, but I haven’t come across the teleportation token you mentioned. You haven’t told me what it is,” Gu Chaoyan voiced her confusion.
Huang Fu felt a wave of relief wash over him as she didn’t delve further into his activities during the past two days.
Regarding the teleportation token, he had intended to disclose its existence to her sooner or later. Since her curiosity was piqued, he decided it was the right time to provide an explanation.
