Chapter 1217 - 1237: Breaking with Nangong Yaoling 1
"It’s not like it’s going to happen now." Xia Xiaonuan looked at her anxious expression and couldn’t help but laugh, "It’s a month from now. I’m fine now, I can’t just stay at home all the time. Besides, the entire crew is waiting for me, I feel bad about it."Nangong Yaoling thought for a moment and said, "Do you feel bored being at home alone? How about next month, I take you to Europe? Grandfather called a few days ago to ask about your health."
Xia Xiaonuan was startled by his words.
She quickly shook her head, "No... I don’t want to go anywhere right now..."
Nangong Yaoling: "..."
"Alright, then it’s up to you. Whenever you feel like going out, I’ll accompany you anytime."
Xia Xiaonuan nodded and rested her head on his chest.
*****
Outside the hospital.
Nangong Yaoling watched Xiaonuan fall asleep before leaving the hospital.
In the corner.
Nangong Zhongli watched as Nangong Yaoling got into the car and drove away.
He slowly took out his phone.
Xia Xiaonuan had just fallen asleep when her phone rang.
She struggled a bit before answering the phone.
"Hello..."
"It’s Nangong Zhongli."
Xia Xiaonuan was stunned.
She sat up from the bed, frowned, and said, "It’s you? What do you want?"
"I heard you had a miscarriage, so I came to check on you."
Xia Xiaonuan coldly replied, "Thanks, but I don’t need your concern. If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up now."
"Wait, are you in such a rush to hang up? There’s one more thing, I think you might be interested."
Xia Xiaonuan: "..."
"It’s about Qi Yue. You must be curious why she suddenly disappeared without a goodbye, right?"
Xia Xiaonuan’s expression changed.
"Qi Yue... Nangong Zhongli... what did you do to her?"
"I’ll wait for you at the hospital stairway in a moment."
Nangong Zhongli smiled and hung up slowly.
Xia Xiaonuan put down her phone, her face looking grim.
Could it be that Qi Yue’s departure had hidden reasons? Qi Yue also mentioned in her letter that she didn’t want to cause worry.
Thinking of this, Xia Xiaonuan felt a wave of anxiety.
She quickly got out of bed.
********
At this moment, Nangong Yaoling, who had already driven away, suddenly realized he left a document in the hospital room.
He looked around and instructed the driver next to him.
"Return to the hospital."
The driver was surprised but quickly replied, "Yes, Young Master."
At the stairway corner.
Xia Xiaonuan looked at the woman standing by the window and slowly approached her.
Nangong Zhongli was wearing sunglasses, with a cigarette between his fingers, elegantly blowing smoke rings. Seeing her approaching, the corners of his lips curled into a cold smile.
"You do look quite haggard; no wonder the Crown Prince visits you at the hospital every day."
Xia Xiaonuan didn’t bother with her sarcastic remarks.
"Speak, what’s the matter with Qi Yue? Nangong Zhongli, if you have any grudges, direct them at me, don’t harm my friends!"
Xia Xiaonuan said through gritted teeth.
"Don’t worry, I didn’t harm her." Nangong Zhongli blew a smoke ring at her, making Xia Xiaonuan cough dryly and turn away.
Nangong Zhongli turned around, extinguishing the cigarette.
He reached out, lowered his sunglasses, and looked at Xia Xiaonuan, saying, "I just wanted her to do something for me. Actually, she didn’t need to leave at all if she did it.
But now it seems she is indeed very loyal to you, preferring to leave herself rather than betray you."
Xia Xiaonuan frowned and asked nervously, "What exactly did you say to her?"
Nangong Zhongli looked at her sharply and smiled, saying:
