Chapter 1305 - 1325: Together with Liang Shaochen
Liang Yuzhu turned her head to look at the fruit dish; the fruits were already washed, there was no need to wash them.
She stomped her foot and said, "I’m going to find Yaoling!"
After speaking, she glared at Xiaonuan and turned to rush out the door.
As she passed by Xiaonuan, she bumped into her forcefully.
Xiaonuan stumbled from the impact, steadied herself, and looked up, just meeting the gaze of Liang Shaochen.
"Sorry, Yuzhu was spoiled since she was young, she speaks without thinking, please don’t mind," Liang Shaochen looked at her and comforted softly.
Xia Xiaonuan forced a slight smile and shook her head.
Her heart was confused about how she felt.
Liang Yuzhu was right, she now also felt she was quite horrible; especially when faced with Shaochen’s comfort and smile, she felt so humble in front of him.
She intertwined her hands, gripping her fingers, creating an awkward atmosphere for a moment.
At this time, Liang Shaochen spoke, "I heard the mastermind behind the event has been caught?"
"Yes," Xia Xiaonuan nodded, looking at Liang Shaochen and said, "They were Situ Yan’s people, here for revenge."
Liang Shaochen nodded.
Thinking of something, he asked again, "About Qi Yue over there..."
"I spoke to Qi Yue on the phone a few days ago; she’s fine, don’t worry."
Liang Shaochen nodded.
"That’s good, I was still worried the Young Master wouldn’t let her go, after all, she’s carrying Situ Yan’s child. But luckily Situ Yan is dead, otherwise, I’m afraid the Young Master really wouldn’t have let this child be born."
Xia Xiaonuan hearing this, felt a shock in her heart.
Her expression changed slightly.
"Yes... indeed," looking at Liang Shaochen’s smiling face, she nodded.
"I will not let anyone harm Qi Yue."
Thinking of Qi Yue made Xia Xiaonuan think of her own lost child.
She must ensure Qi Yue’s baby is born safely.
Suddenly, she thought of something.
Unable to contain herself, she asked, "Shaochen... there’s something I’ve always wanted to ask you..."
Liang Shaochen was slightly stunned.
"What is it?"
"It’s about... about that necklace."
Liang Shaochen’s expression froze for a moment.
He quickly smiled and said, "What necklace? I don’t understand."
"That day at the park, after leaving, I found a necklace in my coat... I’ve always thought it was a gift from the Crown Prince..."
Xia Xiaonuan was momentarily unguarded in her words, she didn’t know how to tell Shaochen about this.
That day was the day they completely broke apart.
And now, she was asking him about that day’s event.
Shaochen smiled and said, "The Crown Prince is quite romantic, directly putting the necklace in your pocket."
Xia Xiaonuan was momentarily stunned.
Looking at Shaochen’s expression, her heart was filled with doubt.
Could it be, that necklace really wasn’t given by Shaochen?
Who could it be then?
"Yes... perhaps," seeing he didn’t admit, Xiaonuan thought the matter truly had nothing to do with Shaochen.
Therefore, she didn’t ask further.
Liang Shaochen looked at Xiaonuan; he couldn’t tell her about the necklace.
Otherwise, she might return the necklace, or misunderstand that he still had feelings for her.
So, let her remain unaware, and let the necklace continue to accompany her.
The air fell silent for a moment, before Xia Xiaonuan concernedly asked, "Does your wound still hurt?"
"It’s fine now," Liang Shaochen gazed at her, his eyes complex and deep, "You once saved my life, this time, consider it my repayment to you."
Xia Xiaonuan’s heart trembled.
"I...?" She was momentarily stunned.
