Chapter 856 - 876: Save My Child
"I heard you’re pregnant?"
"Yes..."
"Whose child is it? If it’s not my brother’s, could it be Shaochen’s?" Nangong Zhongli raised an eyebrow and smiled.
Xia Xiaonuan’s hand beneath the table clenched slightly.
"Of course not. Shaochen and I, everything is over. Zhongli, there’s no need for me to lie to you..."
"But as long as you stay here, Shaochen’s heart will never make room for anyone else!"
Xia Xiaonuan chuckled bitterly.
In her mind, she thought, even after she left for ten years, wasn’t there no place for her in Nan Mo’s heart either?
Why was Nangong Zhongli so obsessed?
"Don’t worry, I’ll leave soon."
Her other hand was placed in front of her nose.
The scent on Nangong Zhongli was really too strong. As Nangong Zhongli watched her, a hint of indifference flickered in her pupils.
The fragrance on her was indeed not just any ordinary perfume.
She had it specially formulated, mixed with heavy musk. If a pregnant woman smells it for too long, it could possibly lead to a miscarriage.
However, since the scent was in the air, if she went back and took a shower, there would be no evidence left.
So even if Xia Xiaonuan miscarried, by then, it couldn’t be blamed on her.
Two days ago, she went to the Crown Prince’s house and found out that Xia Xiaonuan had already moved out.
The maid told her that Xia Xiaonuan was pregnant.
Since Nangong Yaoling didn’t believe the child was his, she might as well make the child completely disappear.
Because even if there was a one-fifth chance that Xia Xiaonuan was carrying Nangong Yaoling’s child, there would still be an opportunity for the two of them to be together.
She had to remove Xia Xiaonuan completely from the Nangong Empire’s social circle.
That way, she wouldn’t have the chance to get close to Shaochen.
Besides... back then, her own child was lost because of Xia Xiaonuan!
Xia Xiaonuan... this is what you deserve!
"To leave, are you certain that once you go, my brother and Shaochen won’t come looking for you? Are you sure you can leave?"
"Of course." Xia Xiaonuan didn’t want to continue talking with her: "I’m not feeling well, I’ll take my leave first."
"Xia Xiaonuan... what do you mean? Do you think I’m not worthy of speaking to you?"
Xia Xiaonuan looked at Nangong Zhongli, and for a moment, she couldn’t find the shadow of the kind-hearted Nangong Zhongli she once knew.
"Nangong Zhongli, how did you become like this?"
"I became like this not gifted by you! Xia Qiqi!" Nangong Zhongli suddenly became agitated and exclaimed.
Xia Xiaonuan shook her head helplessly.
"Sorry, I’ll be going first!" With that, she picked up her handbag and turned to leave.
Nangong Zhongli frowned slightly as she watched Xia Xiaonuan’s departing figure.
She had intended to stall her a bit longer, but unexpectedly, Xia Xiaonuan was quite vigilant.
Even so, her body had always been frail, it should be just about enough, right?
Xia Xiaonuan took a taxi back to the hotel, feeling uncomfortable all over.
Nausea, dizziness...
When she went to the bathroom, she suddenly saw blood in the sink.
Her heart sank heavily.
Her stomach also began to hurt gradually.
A nameless fear seized her, what to do... why did she suddenly become like this...
Could it be Nangong Zhongli...
As Xia Xiaonuan thought of the perfume scent on her, she had found it strange at the time, now it seemed, there really was something wrong!
Tears streamed from her eyes, she took out her phone, not sure whether to call 120.
Just then, the phone in her hand suddenly lit up.
