Fated to My Billionaire Husband-Chapter 2271: I Am Safe Now

Nangong Ruyue kicked off her shoes and changed into clean ones, which slightly improved Nangong Xu’s mood.

After waiting for a while, she sent a text message to Xiao Zexin.

Since being captured and taken to the castle, Xiao Zexin’s phone had been confiscated.

It was unclear whether Nangong Xu had returned it to him.

The message went unanswered, making Nangong Ruyue somewhat anxious.

She frowned and looked at Nangong Xu.

Nangong Xu naturally knew what she was thinking.

He gave a few brief instructions to a subordinate.

Not long after, Nangong Ruyue’s phone rang, and she answered it.

On the other end came Xiao Zexin’s voice: "Madam Nangong, I’ve been released and am still on the road. I’ll call you once I’m safe. And please, don’t hurt yourself because of me."

The concern in his last words was understood only by Nangong Ruyue. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

She tapped on her phone, finally reassured enough to hang up.

Nangong Xu’s people handed Xiao Zexin over to Ruan Tianling’s men and then left.

He quickly called Nangong Ruyue.

Fearing Nangong Xu’s suspicion, he dared not call her by name.

"Madam Nangong, I’m safe now. Please take care of yourself."

Only then did Nangong Ruyue feel completely at ease.

"So, are you sure the person is safe?" Nangong Xu approached her.

This time, Nangong Ruyue did not threaten him, she just stood still.

Nangong Xu stepped forward swiftly, reaching out to pinch her chin.

He squinted, saying menacingly, "Do you know what my biggest regret is?"

"..."

Nangong Xu curled his lips coldly: "My biggest regret is not taking Ruan Tianling seriously back then!"

He thought Ruan Tianling was incapable of anything significant.

He believed Ruan Tianling wouldn’t dare to oppose the Nangong Family.

He completely disregarded him.

But Nangong Wenxiang could see Ruan Tianling’s potential and made a deliberate effort to train him.

In just three short years, Ruan Tianling underwent a complete transformation.

Now, they kept confronting him, relying on Ruan Tianling’s considerable skills, right?

Without Ruan Tianling, how would they dare oppose him?

Nangong Xu, thinking of something, let out a cold laugh.

Nangong Ruyue’s expression changed slightly, worried about what he might do to Ruan Tianling.

**************

Jian Yufei and Ruan Tianling stayed at the vineyard for a few days, and Ruan Tianling’s health greatly improved.

The two were comfortably lying on the bed listening to music, chatting when Ruan Tianling received a call from a subordinate.

"Okay, I understand. Make sure to protect the person well and don’t make any mistakes."

After hanging up, Jian Yufei asked, "What happened?"

Ruan Tianling smiled and said, "My father-in-law has been released; he’s at my place now."

"Really?!" Jian Yufei sat up with excitement.

"Yes, do you want to call him?"

Jian Yufei definitely wanted to talk to her father.

She called him, and upon confirming he was truly safe, she felt very happy.

Now that her father was safe, the only one left was her mother.

But all these safety measures were temporary; the only way to completely eliminate future threats was to get rid of Nangong Xu.

However, dealing with him was truly difficult.

Ruan Tianling, seeing her worry, held her hand and comforted her, "Don’t worry too much. We’ll take it step by step. We’ll eventually find a chance to deal with Nangong Xu."

Jian Yufei nodded and said, "Since Dad is okay, let’s go back immediately."

Ruan Tianling raised an eyebrow and smiled, "You don’t want me to recuperate here anymore?"
