Chapter 595 - 597: Can It Really Be Such a Coincidence?
No... he is Nan Mo, he is different from other men.
In her ears, it seemed as if Nangong Yaoling’s warning was circling, like an alarm ringing in a criminal’s ear at the edge of committing a crime.
She felt there was something in her heart pulling like a tug-of-war, tugging her in both directions, she couldn’t escape and kept struggling.
His hand slowly slid across her collarbone, wandering.
Xia Xiaonuan closed her eyes, feeling as if her body was sinking into intoxication.
"Knock, knock, knock—"
At this moment, a sudden knocking was heard from outside the door.
Xia Xiaonuan’s whole body stiffened, then she heard the waiter outside speaking in Thai, saying their ordered meal had arrived.
Xia Xiaonuan snapped back to reality and forcefully pushed Liang Shaochen away.
Liang Shaochen rolled off, his face tinged with a bit of red.
"Sorry..." he said in a low voice, staring at her, his pupils filled with an inexplicable complexity.
Xia Xiaonuan shook her head, hastily tidying her clothes.
The knocking sounded again, he had to get up and slowly walked to the door.
Xia Xiaonuan watched him leave, her arms crossed over her chest, she slightly closed her eyes.
In the air, it seemed as if there was a lingering sense of ambiguity, however, the regained rationality pulled her back to reality.
If you can’t give him an everlasting promise, shouldn’t you refrain from taking what doesn’t belong to you?
Xia Xiaonuan frowned, thinking irritatedly.
...
Recently, something felt off.
In the morning, sunlight streamed through the gaps in the curtains.
Lying in bed, Nangong Zhongli uncomfortably turned over, then suddenly jumped out of bed, covering her mouth, and rushed into the bathroom.
After retching for a long time, when she came out of the bathroom, her face was slightly pale.
She felt a bit weak and lay back on the bed, her whole body feeling uncomfortable.
Recently, she’s often felt nauseous.
She thought it was because of her stomach, which has always been sensitive. So she didn’t pay much attention.
But... lately, this feeling has been getting worse.
Lying in bed, Nangong Zhongli suddenly remembered something, her eyes widened.
Right...
It seemed her period had been absent for a long time.
Normally, she liked horse riding and shooting, so it could occasionally be irregular. But not by a whole month.
Now that she thought about it, it seemed like last month, it didn’t come.
Could it be...
Thinking of this, Nangong Zhongli suddenly sat up from the bed, extending her hand to her abdomen.
No... she shook her head in panic. "It can’t be, it was just once, how could it be so coincidental?"
Usually facing any danger without panic, at this moment, Nangong Zhongli’s heart was in utter chaos.
Scenes from that blurry night replayed in her mind.
She jumped out of bed, her fingers trembling as she quickly dressed.
Then she went downstairs, drove to the pharmacy alone.
...
Liang Shaochen took the meal, placing the tray on the dining table in the living room.
At this moment, Xia Xiaonuan walked out of the bedroom.
He smiled at her: "You’ve been on the plane for so long and haven’t eaten anything. I ordered some food for you, eat a bit and then have a good rest."
Xia Xiaonuan nodded, although she didn’t feel hungry, she still sat down and ate a little.
Liang Shaochen looked at her tenderly: "You’re eating so little? Are you feeling unwell?"
Xia Xiaonuan shook her head: "I... I’m a bit sleepy." In truth, she was really sleepy, having been on the plane for so long, even though she had slept for a while, it wasn’t a good sleep.
