I had failed to protect you.

Gong Bai felt restless after seeing blood in Xue Nuan's hands. After being with Zi Peng for so long, he knows that she didn't get hurt by accident, but something happened to her.

She might be hiding because she doesn't want to trouble Zi Peng. Gong Bai called the chaffauer who brought Xue Nuan to office. It was no answer, he kept trying for numerous times, suddenly the phone got picked up. he heard a lady voice on the opposite side. he was puzzled, Quickly He said

"Hello?"

"Hello Sir, I am nurse from general hospital speaking. The owner of the phone has been admitted here after an attack. Once he wakes up, we will request him to call you right back. please don't keep calling."

"Okay, Thanks so much".

After the call, Gong Bai ran to Top Floor. He didn't go Zi Peng's office nor his meeting room. He went straight to Long Tian's office. Long Tian was in discussion already with some people. After seeing, Gong Bai, He sensed some thing urgent and dispersed the people in the front.

"So, the great Gong Bai. what brought you here. Why do you look like , you saw the ghost."

"It's even worse, Some one attacked Master Zi Peng's chaffauer and attacked young madam as well."

"What!, are you sure? How's she doing?. Long Tian playful mood has gone.

"She is fine, but let's find out what happened before we feel the wrath of Zi Peng." Gong Bai said.

Long Tian thought for a moment and said

"Gong Bai, call the Villa caretaker and ask for details"

After the call, Gong Bai said

"She left house to give lunch to Zi Peng and then planned to head towards Zi Mansion."

Long Tian started checking the CCTV videos around the time Xue Nuan left the Villa and they followed the car in the Videos.

Then, they came across the entire incident on CCTV and they were shocked beyond belief. Both of them repeatedly saw the video again and again.

Gong Bai broke the silence and asked

"Can we delete the CCTV footages quickly before the gang gets it. What if they come back to attack Young Madam for revenge."

"I have already removed the footages, but the gang leader seems to have taken a video of her hitting those guys." Long Tian spotted the issue

Gong Bai was very worried. Long Tian couldn't see his friend like that.

"Aww, My dear Friend, why are you having such a sad face, you look extremely bad. Don't worry about her. I m not worried about Xue Nuan after seeing her fighting skills. her blow is so perfect and precise. I wonder where she trained herself."

Gong Bai replied,

"Young Madam must have gotten trained in UN peacecorp camps. Send Someone to guard her discreetly to keep her safe, just incase. I will speak to Master right away before he finds out himself.".

Zi Peng was extremely busy with his meetings. He didn't get time to check out his phone itself. He came back to his office for a small break.

He was about to check out the phone.

His secretary came inside with a bento box in hand

"CEO Zi, Mr. Gong Bai asked me pass this when you get back for a break."

Zi Peng thought since when this Gong Bai worried about his lunch

"Leave the lunch at table near the sofa, don't disturb me for some time."

"Yes Sir, as you say."

Zi Peng couldn't concentrate completely today on work, he wanted to spend some more time with his wife. He checked his phone, if he got any call or text from her. But instead he got a call from caretaker.

He called her back while opening the lunch

"Auntie Gong, Did you call me. Sorry I was busy with work, missed your call. is everything okay at home?"

"Master, No Probs. Everything is going well here. I just called to Say something..."She hesitated

"Auntie Gong, don't hesitate, how many times I have to tell you, you are like my mother, please tell me what is the matter?."

"Master, Young Madam got up very early in the morning and cooked breakfast for you. She also left the house to bring you lunch. When she comes, please appreciate her. Girls like to hear appreciation from their husband. She seems like a selfless person and kind hearted. She stopped me from telling, but I felt like telling you that you should praise her for her efforts."

"Don't worry Auntie, while eating in the morning itself I had figured that out. Since she is playing hide and seek game by not telling me about her cooking, I just went along with it. I have already planned for a reward for her when I get back. "

"Okay Master, that sounds great." the call ended there.

While Zi Peng was on call, Gong Bai entered with his Laptop.

Zi Peng knew that when Gong Bai entered during don't disturb time means some emergency.

"Master, Someone attacked Young Madam on her way to our office. Chaffauer tried to resist them, he got injured. So Madam jumped in and saved him by fighting with the guys who tried to attack. I guess they were thinking about attacking you, but they saw the young madam by surprise."

"What are you saying, why didn't I know about it before. How's Xue Nuan and where is she now?"

Zi Peng couldn't control his emotions. His anger was it's peak since someone dared attacked his wife.

"Master, please relax. Madam has gone to Old Zi Mansion to Miss Liu. I just spotted a blood on wrist. when I asked her, she just asked me ignore. But Long Tian found the incident from the CCTV footages. Now we have arranged two people to secure Young Madam."

Zi Peng saw the video on the laptop, Though he has admit her fighting her flawless fighting skills, He is blood pressure raised by the occurrence of attack in first place. he wanted to get to the bottom of this.

"Gong Bai, Cancel all my meetings today. If she escaped means, they will get back to her for sure. I want the people who were responsible for this incident captured and sent to Mo Liuxian for further enquiry. Keep sending me updates through texts.

And send someone to check on the chaffauer."

Zi Peng was about to leave,

"Gong Bai, why didn't she meet me by coming to my office."

"Master, she was stopped in the lobby by the company employees. That's why she called me "

"Fire everyone who's so ever tried to stop my wife."

Gong Bai nodded and said yes to him.

Zi Peng drove the car like his life was at stake to Old Zi Mansion.

Xue Nuan was in garden, enjoying the evening tea with Elder Zi, Liu Huang, Mother Zi and Zi Zexian.

Zi Peng called her as he was coming closer

"Nuna.."

Xue Nuan got up and tried to walk towards him

He came running and hugged her immediately.

Everyone's eyes were at them. How can this boy change overnight. He is showing PDA infront of his family itself.

He started kissing her all over her face, Xue Nuan felt embarrassed to be infront of the family. But she felt the fast beating heart of Zi Peng and kept quiet. she hugged him back to relax him.

In-between the kisses he said

"Nuna, I am extremely sorry. I had failed to protect you."

"Ah Peng, Are you mad, how can you foresee such things. relax, I am good now. She showed her wounded hand.

He didn't care about the world, He started kissing her fiercely. All the family members slowly left the place to give privacy to the young couple
