Chapter 1511 - 1528: You Still Can’t Let Him Go 5
Xia Xiaonuan felt a slight tremor in her heart and looked up at Liang Shaochen.
His eyes carried a sincere smile, making her feel as if a spring breeze had gently swept through her heart.
She really wanted to find someone to talk to, but she knew she already owed him too much.
"Thank you, you’ve already helped me a lot. I... I’m really fine." She said, slightly averting her gaze, pretending to watch the performance in the distance.
Liang Shaochen felt a pang of disappointment.
Yet he couldn’t help but smile and say: "We’re all friends, why be so particular? If it were other friends in trouble, I’d help them just the same."
On this point, Xia Xiaonuan was willing to believe him.
When Qi Yue had issues in the past, he also took care of her attentively.
However, she always felt that there was a difference between her relationship with him and that of ordinary friends.
Feeling a bit awkward, she glanced at her watch and stood up, saying, "I should be heading back..."
"I’ll give you a ride." Liang Shaochen also stood up, smiling as he spoke: "I happen to have nothing to do right now..." Seeing that she seemed ready to refuse, he quickly added: "Are you really going to be so polite with me over something so trivial?"

Xia Xiaonuan’s cheeks flushed slightly.
She had no choice but to say, "Alright then..."

The black Rolls-Royce slowly stopped at the red light.
Nangong Yaoling sat in the car, gripping the steering wheel, turning his anxious gaze towards the other side of the road, in the direction of the plaza.
There seemed to be a lot of people at the plaza, what was Xiaonuan doing here alone?
Was it because she was mad at him?
Nangong Yaoling gritted his teeth, impatiently glancing at the red light in front of him.
It was at this moment that he cast his gaze once more in the direction of the plaza.
Suddenly, he seemed to catch sight of a familiar figure.
He saw Xia Xiaonuan stepping down the steps of the plaza alongside a man, a smile on her face, even holding an orange balloon in her hand.
Liang Shaochen seemed to be saying something, his face lit up with a smile.
The two appeared to be very happy.
Almost instantly, Nangong Yaoling’s face turned pale.
He could hardly believe his eyes.
She hadn’t been answering his calls, was it because she was with him?
No wonder... she was holding a balloon, just how much fun had they been having together?
Just because he missed their outing, she turned around and found another man?
Nangong Yaoling trembled all over, his pupils turning crimson.
He was dying to jump out of the car and rush over to give Liang Shaochen a beating.
At that moment, he saw the two of them approach a white sports car, and Liang Shaochen bent down to carefully open the car door for her.
Xiaonuan said something, smiling as she got into the car.
Liang Shaochen thoughtfully placed his hand on top of the car to prevent her from bumping her head.
As she brushed past him, they seemed so intimately close.
Liang Shaochen got into the car as well, and it quickly backed up, then turned and left.
Nangong Yaoling gripped the steering wheel, his hands and feet icy cold, while all the blood rushed to his head; he stood there dumbfounded, like a sculpture.
The red light changed, and a blaring of car horns erupted behind him.
Only then did Nangong Yaoling come back to his senses, slowly starting the car, finally turning a corner, and stopping at the entrance of the plaza.
But Liang Shaochen’s car was already nowhere in sight.
Nangong Yaoling’s gaze, however, remained fixed on the direction where the car had vanished.
In his pupils, a glimmer of pain and heartbreak flickered.
