Chapter 843 - 593: Quickly Getting Into Character
Xia Xiaonuan hailed a taxi and found a place to stay.
Because she’s pregnant now and probably can’t continue acting for the time being. She had some money in her account, some of which was transferred by Nangong Yaoling.
She should have over two million.
Although, this money, if spent sparingly, should be enough for her and the baby after birth. But without any source of income for the next ten months, she has to be economical.
Therefore, she didn’t go to a five-star hotel, just a cleaner and more convenient ordinary hotel.
She found a medium suite and then asked the staff to move her luggage in.
Xia Xiaonuan rested in the hotel for a while, then stepped out and went to a nearby restaurant, a bistro, to have a simple breakfast.
Seeing a bookstore across the street, she decided to take a stroll by herself.
She picked a book about pregnancy, which describes how to educate the fetus and things to be aware of during pregnancy.
It was possibly the weekend, as the bookstore was full of students buying books. While queuing to checkout, Xia Xiaonuan’s phone rang.
It was Nangong Yaoling.
She wondered why he was calling her now. He hadn’t come back last night, and whether he returned today or not, he should know about her departure by now.
Xia Xiaonuan thought of Yun and those loyal servants to him.
In the quiet bookstore, the ringtone was particularly noticeable, and everyone was observing her. Hesitantly, she decided to answer it.
"Hello..."
"Xia Xiaonuan, where are you!?" Nangong Yaoling asked bluntly, his voice carrying a hint of agitation.
"I’m outside, do you need something?" Xia Xiaonuan asked coldly.
There was a pause on the other end, followed by a chilly statement: "I need to talk to you, where are you now?"
"I... I’m outside, can’t you say what you need over the phone?" Xia Xiaonuan glanced at the people nearby and lowered her voice.
"It’s too complicated to explain over the phone, it’s about the divorce!" Nangong Yaoling grumbled, raising his voice. Was she really so eager? They argued last night, and she moved out without a trace this morning.
As if she feared he might chase after her to prevent her departure.
Now, she took his call with an apparent disdainful attitude.
His voice was loud enough for those nearby to hear.
Xia Xiaonuan saw the curious looks around her and promptly said, "Alright, I’m at Xinhua Bookstore."
"Wait there, I’ll be there in fifteen minutes!"
Xia Xiaonuan hung up the phone just as her turn for checkout arrived. She paid for the book and sat in a corner, flipping through it as she waited for Nangong Yaoling.
"The early stages of pregnancy are extremely important for expecting mothers. During this time, it’s crucial to pay attention to rest and emotions, and it’s best not to get angry or move around too much. Otherwise, it’s detrimental to the fetus."
As Xia Xiaonuan read those words, she couldn’t help but feel a twinge of sadness.
She reached out and placed a hand on her abdomen.
"Baby, I’m sorry. Mommy will be careful from now on, no anger, no rushing. You have to be good, okay?" she whispered softly.
"Already getting into the role quickly, huh?" Suddenly, a mocking voice sounded above her.
Xia Xiaonuan froze, raised her head, saw long legs, and looked up further to see an exceptionally handsome face, currently gazing coldly at her.
