Chapter 162 - 164: Woman, Missing Me Again 3
At this moment, Liang Shaocheng spoke: "In that case, Zhong Li, let’s not make things difficult for Xiaonuan."
Xia Xiaonuan got into her parents’ car, and only then did her heart settle.
...
The next day, Xia Xiaonuan called the theatre troupe.
Since the fight between her and Fang Wan, "Consort" had been suspended.
Many actors were complaining but could do nothing.
A word from Nangong Yaoling was like a decree from the Crown Prince.
Xia Xiaonuan called Fang Zhengyuan and told her that she was in good health and really could start filming again.
But Fang Zhengyuan told her that without the Crown Prince’s order, the filming would remain suspended.
Moreover, since Fang Wan’s death, the entire crew had been somewhat unsettled.
She suggested that Xia Xiaonuan rest for a while longer.
Xia Xiaonuan was extremely frustrated.
Sitting alone by the window, she stared blankly at a bouquet of white tulips.
Fortunately, the elegant floral scent calmed her agitated mood a bit.
She just hoped Nangong Yaoling would come back soon.
Although Xia Xiaonuan was at home, there were daily reports to Nangong Yaoling about her.
And Nangong Yaoling had never called Xia Xiaonuan directly.
Instead, Xia Xiaonuan often heard Qin Liu and Nangong Yaoling talking on the phone, including Yun.
They were discussing matters related to the company and home, as well as her affairs.
Yet, Nangong Yaoling just wouldn’t call her.
This made Xia Xiaonuan feel quite baffled.
This man was really weird.
When she didn’t like him, he would cling to her miserably.
He could stick to her for an entire day.
But when she had something to say to him, he wouldn’t even give her a call.
And she didn’t want to take the initiative to call this devil either.
Because every time she talked to him, there would definitely be some nonsensical conversation, making her blush and her heart race, and they might end up arguing again.
If she begged him over the phone to allow "Consort" to resume filming, Nangong Yaoling would definitely find an excuse to threaten her or make her agree to some inappropriate requests.
So, Xia Xiaonuan really felt depressed.
Thus, whenever Nangong Yaoling and Qin Liu were on the phone in the living room, she would deliberately make some noise.
"Yes, sir... okay... The cooperation with Nancheng Commerce has been finalized... Please rest assured..."
"Yun, where are the nail clippers at home?! I want to trim my nails..."
"Yes... sir..."
"Yun, I’m hungry! I want to eat hotpot today...!"
"Yun... the weather is so nice outside today~"
"Sir, rest assured, the young mistress is fine. She... might just be a bit irritable lately..."
Xia Xiaonuan: ...
"Who says I’m irritable! I’m in a great mood!" She heard Qin Liu explaining to Nangong Yaoling in the living room, and couldn’t help but jump up in anger, rushing to Qin Liu’s side and shouting loudly.
Qin Liu looked a bit embarrassed. "Young mistress... do you want to talk to the master on the phone?"
Originally, Xia Xiaonuan intended to, but his words made it seem like she was eagerly wanting to talk to Nangong Yaoling.
So, she loudly refused: "Who wants to talk to him, I don’t!"
"Yes... sir... okay." Qin Liu listened to some more instructions on the phone and then hung up.
Xia Xiaonuan, fuming with anger, stomped her feet and stormed upstairs.
...
Meanwhile, sitting atop a skyscraper across the ocean, Nangong Yaoling.
Watched the satellite video transmitted from home.
Seeing Xia Xiaonuan’s sulking and angry demeanor.
Saw it all clearly.
The corners of his lips curved up slightly.
