The CEO's Substitute Ex-Wife-Chapter 526: Rome

Ever since learning that Ye Feimo was upstairs, Wen Nuan had been restless. She longed to see him, but didn’t know what to say to him, wavering between going and not going.

Du Di, busy with work, brought her delicious food every day and came to keep her company, afraid she’d be bored. Wen Nuan felt guilty, but Du Di didn’t seem to mind. Wen Nuan, concerned for Ye Feimo, didn’t say anything.

She was still bedridden; the doctor said it would take five days. She had special care, which was very attentive.

During her recovery, Cheng Anya visited her. Wen Nuan felt ashamed and couldn’t face her. She had left so decisively for Ye Feimo’s health, and now, because of her, Ye Feimo was in critical condition. How could she not blame herself? Cheng Anya,

however, said she was overthinking it. She had been furious about the incident, but seeing her son lying half-dead, all her anger turned to helplessness. If they were decades younger, they might have acted just as recklessly back then.

Ye Chen had done things even more outrageous than Ye Feimo back then, so how could she bear to blame her son who was heartbroken? She

was too busy feeling pity for him.

This time, Wen Nuan’s misfortune was entirely unexpected.

Cheng Anya didn’t blame her.

"How many years is your course?" Cheng Anya asked casually during their conversation.

"Two years," Wen Nuan replied. Her university studies weren’t finished yet. "After finishing acting, I want to study directing for another two years. I’m applying now; I want to combine them. If I can complete the credits in three years, that would be great."

Once she finished, she could return to China.

Hollywood wasn’t the dream of all Chinese actors. Wen Nuan, for example, preferred to develop her career in China and didn’t want to come to Hollywood. Establishing herself in Hollywood for a few years would be good, but even if she didn’t, gaining experience would be valuable. Regardless, after graduation, whether she became a Hollywood star or not, she would return to City A—that was a certainty.

Three years... Cheng Anya nodded. What would things be like three years later?

Nobody knew.

Cheng Anya didn’t mention her remarriage with Fei Mo. She hadn’t brought it up since their divorce. She had already told Wen Nuan what she needed to say. She didn’t want to interfere in her son’s marriage; what happened between them was up to fate.

"Fei Mo, are you feeling better?"

"Yes, much better." Cheng Anya glanced at her. "If you’re worried, go see him when you can walk around. Divorce doesn’t mean we’re never seeing each other again. While we can’t be husband and wife, we don’t force us to be friends. Seeing each other is fine."

Wen Nuan bit her slightly pale lips and hummed in agreement, not giving Cheng Anya a direct answer. Cheng Anya didn’t press her.

These two children were truly worrying.

As Cheng Anya was leaving, she ran into Du Di. As they nodded to each other and passed, Cheng Anya called out to Du Di, her brow furrowed and her face cold. "Mr. Du, you’d better confirm your sister’s whereabouts. I don’t want Wen Nuan to be harmed by her. Your sister is a madwoman. If you want Wen Nuan to be safe, you’d better maintain a close relationship with her to avoid triggering her nerves. Otherwise, we’ll let her go twice, but there won’t be a third time."

With that, she turned and left.

Du Di was startled by the ruthlessness in her eyes. This matriarch of the Ye family, who had weathered countless storms with Ye Chen, always possessed an aura that commanded respect, much like Ye Chen himself. Cheng Anya was indeed worried that Du Yueying might harm Wen Nuan. If something happened to Wen Nuan again, and Ye Feimo lost his temper and did something crazy again, she feared she might really go to any lengths to have Du Yueying eliminated, preventing anyone from harming Wen Nuan and Ye Feimo.

She was a mother; to protect her own child, she would rather hurt someone else’s child than let someone else’s child hurt hers.

Rome.

Long Chengtian received a message from Dudi, asking him to go to Washington. He had been in Rome for a while and originally intended to return to Eastern Europe, but Dudi said he had found his sister and she was in Washington. Without hesitation, Long Chengtian immediately ordered his men to prepare a plane.

He was going to Washington, Kaka was going to the Middle East the day after tomorrow, and Wushuang originally wanted to stay in Rome to investigate the situation in the Middle East and see if the Mafia had finished dealing with their affairs there. If not, she and Guimian planned to go there.

When Long Chengtian mentioned going to America and his sister, Wushuang thought of Wen Nuan, and then of the Heart of Azure she possessed.

Dudi, Long Chengtian, Wen Nuan, and Ye Feimo were all in America. Perhaps the Heart of Azure really would work. Even if it didn’t, it would be good to give it to Cheng Anya to be buried with in the cenotaph of Azure. For Ye Feimo and for Wen Nuan, Wushuang also decided to go to Washington with Long Chengtian.

Ghost Face went with her, which infuriated Long Chengtian. Back in Rome, the two of them had been with Wushuang every day, and he found Ghost Face an eyesore. Now, he wanted to come along too! He was furious. Ghost Face, true to his usual style of ignoring childish behavior, nearly threw Long Chengtian off the plane.

Wushuang never cared about their antics.

But as they were about to board the plane, Mo Yao became worried. Wushuang’s situation was sensitive; Wen Nuan was in the hospital, and while the Federation was currently powerless against her, they might still send people to monitor the hospital.

They assumed Wen Nuan and Wushuang knew each other and would be waiting for them there.

Logically, Wushuang would visit Wen Nuan after she was injured, which was why she hadn’t immediately gone to America—FBI territory, filled with elite agents, and extremely dangerous. Wushuang

was always bold and meticulous, never backing down from a decision she made. She had encountered even more dangerous situations before, so she wasn’t worried about handling the situation.

So, the three of them boarded the plane.

Guimian and Wushuang sat together, while Long Chengtian sulked to the side, thinking about his sister. Wushuang showed Long Chengtian Wen Nuan’s information, and he glanced at her sideways. "You knew all along?"

Wushuang said calmly, "I suspected it when I was investigating your background before, but I didn’t expect it to be true."

Long Chengtian snorted heavily, and Wushuang looked at him teasingly, unable to resist teasing him, "It seems you don’t care about your sister at all. She’s so famous, Anning’s ads are all over Europe and North America, plastered all over the streets, and you didn’t even know?"

"When have I ever paid attention to the entertainment industry? To me, they all look the same." Long Chengtian said angrily, looking at Wen Nuan’s face in the information, he added, "My sister is really beautiful, she doesn’t look like any of them."

Wushuang, "..."

Hmm, Guimian was right, so naive!

Wushuang looked at the strange Azure Heart necklace, and she sincerely hoped that this necklace could help Ye Feimo.

Azure Heart, in the darkness, you will protect your family, won’t you?

You’ve always loved them the most.

Even if I’m gone, I’ll still protect them.
