Chapter 1313 - 1330: Is There Really a Problem with the Necklace?
"Yes, Young Master must have misunderstood the Young Madam! The Young Madam loves Young Master so much, and Young Master loves her deeply too. Why can’t they just get along?"
"Sigh, who knows? By the way, all of this is because Mr. Liang fell ill. How about we help Young Master and Young Madam?" one of the chubby servants boldly suggested.
"Shut up, what nonsense are you talking about? Can you even handle this matter?" The housekeeper overheard the discussion and scolded with a stern face.
"But... Mr. Li, what if Young Madam and Young Master...?"
"Isn’t it normal for a couple to argue? Young Master loves Young Madam so much. How could he leave because of this? Go back to work and clean up the place!"
"Yes..."
Only then did the servant reluctantly retreat and went off to clean.
Housekeeper Li thought for a while and walked upstairs.
Xia Xiaonuan was in the bedroom, staring blankly at a necklace, and she heard a knock on the door. She quickly returned to her senses and placed the necklace behind her.
"Come in."
Housekeeper Li walked in, looking respectfully at Xia Xiaonuan, and said, "Young Madam..."
"It’s Housekeeper Li, do you need something?"
Housekeeper Li stepped forward and said, "Young Madam, there are some things that, as a servant, I’m not sure if I should say..."
"Housekeeper Li, you’ve worked hard for years taking care of the Crown Prince at the Nangong Family, you can speak freely."
"Hmm... You know Young Master’s personality." Housekeeper Li frowned slightly, his weary eyes carrying comfort: "Since childhood, he was pampered by everyone, and no one dared to speak loudly to him. Meeting you has changed him a lot..."
Xia Xiaonuan forced out a slight smile and nodded: "I know."
"So, I hope you can understand him more. Everything he does is for your good. Young Master is always stubborn with a soft heart. When you left, he aged years in a moment; after you returned, it seemed he came back to life.
I’ve been with the Nangong Family for years and have never seen Young Master like this. He truly loves you..."
Upon hearing this, Xia Xiaonuan’s eyes slightly reddened.
"Please, stop." Xiaonuan nodded: "I understand what you mean, Housekeeper Li, you can go ahead, Young Master and I are fine."
The housekeeper, upon hearing this, finally smiled brightly and nodded: "That’s good, that’s good. I’ll instruct the kitchen to prepare lunch for you now!"
"Mm."
Watching the housekeeper leave, Xia Xiaonuan sat slowly on the bed.
A wry smile curled up at her lips.
Nangong Yaoling, you big fool. I’m the Qiqi you’ve always been looking for, why won’t you believe me?
Forget it, just let things be.
Perhaps, the past Qiqi already has an irreplaceable place in your heart; and the current me is indeed no longer the Qiqi of before.
If possible, I also wish to remain as the original Qiqi.
Xia Xiaonuan thought of something and took out her phone.
Dialed a string of numbers.
"Hello... Hi... Is this Doctor Tang?"
******
An older, slightly worn alleyway, a taxi slowly pulled to a stop.
Xia Xiaonuan paid, got out of the car.
Raised her eyes and looked at everything in front of her.
The alley wasn’t big, with some small fruit vendors on the street side.
Xia Xiaonuan walked a few steps inside and saw a sign for "＋" Tang’s Chinese Medicine.
Her eyes lit up, and she quickly stepped forward and walked in.
As soon as she entered, there was a strong smell of Chinese medicine.
A young boy in a white robe was pounding Chinese medicine in a porcelain jar.
