TTCC Building.
Jian sit down in his chair, a few minutes later, Secretary Wen entered with the information that he asked .
"Mr. Hong, I've got the report." Secretary Wen said.
"Tell me." Jian said as he lean in his chair.
"According to the information that I've gathered, Ms. Zhuang is Mr. Su was about to get engaged through their parent's agreement. But Ms. Zhuang runaway from home and left the country."
"A few months later , Ms.Zhuang came back here in Shanghai, this time, their engagement was announced in public, but after just a few days, the Su family retracted the engagement. "
Jian listen attentively.
His brows knitted, " Why?" He aksed.
"Because Ms. Zhuang got involved to a scandal." Secretary Wen replied.
"Scandal?" Jian frowned.
He never knew about this!
He avoided his self to hear anything about Nana since she left him, because he thought ,it will help him to forget Nana easily!
"Yes Mr. Hong, it is said that Ms. Zhuang cheated on Mr. Su while they were engage. "
"What?!" Jian was surprised!
"It is said that Ms. Zhuang lived with another man in one roof when she's in Taiwan."
Jian straightened his body!
"No way!" He said. "We didn't do anything wrong!" He murmured.
"Huh?!" Secretary Wen looked at Jian with a confused expression.
"Ah," Jian snapped back to his senses." Continue." He said.
Jian keen back to his chair, he play the pen in his hand while listening to Secretary Wen.
"When the Su Family retracted the engagement, some of the investors of MS clothing company cancelled their contract. And it become worst when the bankruptcy was leaked to the public. "
"Soon after, Mr. Zhuang had a heart attack which caused his death, then their company and other assets was sold to pay their debt in a bank."
Jian has fallen into a deep thought,
'Nana came back here in Shanghai to marry Henry, and coincidentally, that time,their company is currently in crisis. '
'Henry's family is rich! It's a big help for the Zhuang's if the wedding happened!
They can merge their companies, the Su family can help the struggling business of the Zhuang's !'
Could it be, could it be that ,Nana left me to marry Henry, because she wanted to save their family's business?

It was already midnight when Jian get back to the hospital.
Natalie is still unconscious, Mrs. Zhuang is sleeping in the side of the bed while sitting in a chair. She she laid her head in her arm.
Jian walk closer to Natalie, he stared at her and caress her hair.
Jian draw his face closer to Nana's ear and whisper,
"Good night sweetheart, " he whispered and kissed her forehead.
Jian take a seat in a couch in the other side of the room.
He stay awake to look after Nana, but he did not notice that he fell asleep while sitting in the couch.

Her surrounding is quite.
'Where am I?' She thought.
She looked around her and found a familiar man in the couch, he's sleeping with his back leaning in the couch.
"J-Jian..." Nana blurted out.
Jian was half awake he opened his eyes when he heard a noise.
His gaze fell into the chair but Mrs. Zhuang isn't already there.
Jian averted his gaze to the bed and saw Nana, She's already awake!
" Nana!" He instantly get up from the couch and approached Nana.
He press the button near the headboard to call the nurse and the doctor and then he sit in the bed ,he held Nana's hand and touched her face." How do you feel sweetheart?" He asked.

She stared at Jian, was she seeing things?
Is this just a delusion?
"Nana, how do you feel? "Jian asked again.
"W-where am I? " Nana asked .
"You're in the hospital." Jian replied.
Natalie suddenly remember what happened the other day.
"J-Jian... I ... I'm so scared!" She said.
Her body trembled.
"Sshh! It's alright sweetheart, You're safe now." Jian tried to calm Nana.
"Sarah is already in jail. She can't runaway from the crime that she committed!"
"Nana, as long as I am here, I will not allow anyone to hurt you again. " Jian assured Nana and he embrace her.
This time, the doctor and the nurse arrived , they checked Nana's vital.
"Well, let's be thankful that she's fine now, but she still needs to stay a few days due to her pneumonia." The doctor explained.
Jian nodded his head.
The doctor left after he explained everything.

This time, she already calm down.
"Are you hungry?" He asked.
Nana shook her head.
"Did you stay here all night?" Nana aksed.
"Ennn..."
"Your mom was here too, but she was gone this morning, maybe she just buy something important. "
"Oh!" Nana blurted out.
Jian stared at Nana, " Nana, I know this is not the right place to do this, but..." Jian pause for a moment as if he is having a second thought.
But after a while he continue to speak.
"I want to ask you something." He said
Nana looked up to Jian, " What is it?"
"Did... Did you ever love me?" Jian asked, he is nervous, he is nervous to hear Nana's answer.
Nana froze for a moment, she didn't expect Jian to ask her that kind of question!
She took a deep breath before she answer.
"Would you believe me if I say Yes?" She asked back.
Jian felt relieve, Nana's answer gave him hope.
He smiled and nodded his head.
"Nana, I already know."
"Huh?!" Nana look up to Jian with her confused expression.
"I know why did you have to leave me five years ago." Jian said.
Nana was stunned!
' He already know?'
'Did Mrs. Hong told him already?'
Nana was so tensed.
Now, she can finally explain to him everything!
"J- Jan I'm sorry if----"
Nana was about to explain but Jian put his finger to her mouth to stop her from speaking.
"Ssshh!"
"It's alright , sweetie, I know that it wasn't easy for you to despise your family. After all, they are your family, I understand that you have to save your family's business." Jian said.
"..."
Nana was speechless!
Her words was stuck in her mouth!
"Nana I've investigated what happened five years ago. I know your company is struggling that time." Jian added.
Nana don't know what to say!
She almost broke her promise to Mrs. Hong!
She almost told Jian what really happened five years ago!
Nana just keep silent, she don't want to say any word, she's afraid that she might slip her tongue!
"I still have a question Nana ." Jian said again.
This time Nana looked up to Jian, " Just ask me and I am willing to answer all your questions." She replied.
Jian looked at Nana's eyes, his eyes is full of sincerity!
"Do you still love me?"

Her heart beats faster!
Again, she didn't expect Jian to ask her that question!
