Chapter 754 - 765: I Trust My Feelings
Xia Xiaonuan looked at him complicatedly. She nodded.
Only after Nangong Zhongli and Shaochen finished their engagement ceremony, could she divorce Nangong Yaoling.
Because Grandpa didn’t want any more turmoil at Nangong Zhongli’s wedding due to the absence of Young Madam Nangong.
Xia Xiaonuan stood in front of the washbasin, her heart filled with bitterness.
Shaochen, why do you want to marry Zhongli? Is he really willing to give up on Qiqi? Or is he... revenging me?
With this thought in her mind, Xia Xiaonuan felt increasingly self-blaming and guilty.
If Nan Mo married Nangong Zhongli because he misunderstood her, how could she possibly face him?
Xia Xiaonuan shook her head, turned around, and walked out of the restroom.
Upon stepping out, she saw Situ Yan standing at the restroom door.
She was stunned for a moment, then collected her emotions and looked at him coldly, "What are you doing here?"
Situ Yan smiled, "You still can’t let go of Shaochen? Then why didn’t you just say it outright, instead of letting him marry another woman?"
"Whether I can let him go has nothing to do with you, right?" Xia Xiaonuan sneered, "You’re not here to cause trouble, are you? That would be perfect, as I don’t want to attend their engagement banquet anyway."
She said this intentionally as she didn’t want Situ Yan to make any more disruptions. Things were chaotic enough already; she didn’t want to add to the mess.
Situ Yan lifted her chin with a wicked smile, "If you really don’t want to, I can help you."
His gaze was fiery, staring intently at her.
Xia Xiaonuan swatted his hand away in disgust and glanced at a passing waiter, "Get lost, this is a public place!"
Situ Yan withdrew his hand, but then placed it directly against the wall behind her.
"Xiaonuan... I never thought that after being with Nangong Yaoling for so long, you still..." His breath sprayed onto her ear, his voice hoarse and unclear.
Xia Xiaonuan frowned, "What do you want to say?"
"Xiaonuan..." Unable to control himself, Situ Yan reached out, cupped her face, and whispered, "Don’t worry, I will definitely take responsibility for you."
Xia Xiaonuan pushed his hand away with a dark expression — did this man have his brain filled with lead?
At this moment, a low growl was heard, "Let her go!"
Situ Yan was stunned as a figure flashed by.
Liang Shaochen rushed over and punched towards Situ Yan.
But Situ Yan dodged it sensitively.
Xia Xiaonuan widened her eyes in disbelief.
"Shaochen..."
Liang Shaochen grabbed Situ Yan by the collar, about to strike, but Situ Yan caught his hand, his face darkening as he coldly said, "Mr. Liang, this is your engagement banquet, do you want to stain the scene with blood?"
Liang Shaochen hesitated.
He let go of Situ Yan, "Who are you and why are you pestering her!"
Situ Yan chuckled, "I am her man..."
Xia Xiaonuan: "....."
"Situ Yan, what nonsense are you talking about?!" Xia Xiaonuan glared at Situ Yan, speechless.
Situ Yan gave her a deep look, "I am not lying!"
Xia Xiaonuan: "....."
"Xia Xiaonuan, I’m about to get engaged to Zhongli. Are you sure you still don’t want to admit that you are Qiqi?"
After hearing Liang Shaochen’s words, Xia Xiaonuan’s body stiffened.
"You..." Did Liang Shaochen actually know she was purposely lying to him? Does he believe she is Qiqi?
Liang Shaochen grabbed Xia Xiaonuan’s shoulders, "I thought for a long time... I think, you must have been afraid of putting me in a difficult position, so you lied to me that you peeked at the diary, right?"
