Chapter 896 - 916: Xiaonuan Was Forced
This matter concerns two people: one is her best friend, the other... is the father of the child in her belly.
It’s really making her frustrated!
Nangong Yaoling’s gaze fell on Qi Yue, capturing all her nervousness and insecurity.
"You’re Xiaonuan’s best friend, I want to know, when you’re with Xiaonuan, did she ever tell you anything? About... her situation..." Nangong Yaoling asked patiently, speaking slowly.
Qi Yue raised her eyes and glanced at Nangong Yaoling.
She quickly lowered her head, stammering, "Xiaonuan... Xiaonuan did say she was going to leave, and when I found out, I came to see you immediately..."
Nangong Yaoling suddenly took a deep breath.
Qi Yue’s body trembled.
Qin Yi, standing by the side, said, "Miss Qi Yue, you don’t have to be too nervous. You’re the Young Mistress’s friend. The Young Master brought you here like a conversation between friends. The reason the Young Master is asking you is because he trusts you.
If the Young Master didn’t trust you, he wouldn’t have brought you here at all."
Hearing this, Qi Yue glanced at Qin Yi, then looked at Nangong Yaoling again.
Her heart surged with excitement and gratitude.
Qin Yi was right, because... the Young Master trusts her, that’s why he brought her here, right?
If it wasn’t because she’s Xiaonuan’s friend, she probably couldn’t stand here unharmed... Who knows if she’d be coerced into confessing?
Qi Yue’s mind wandered wildly, thinking of some scenes from TV.
"Ahem..." The man sitting at the front suddenly coughed lightly.
"Miss Qi Yue, I think you should know that Xiaonuan is now pregnant, and she’s not suited for any more stress and accidents. She’s carrying my child. If it weren’t for some compelling reason, she wouldn’t decide to leave with another man!" Nangong Yaoling stared at her, speaking in a calm tone.
"You... you know she’s pregnant with your child?" Qi Yue raised her eyes, widened them in shock, and asked. The next second, seeing the corner of Nangong Yaoling’s mouth curve up, she saw a gleam of joy pass in Qin Yi’s eyes as well.
Qi Yue’s face immediately fell, and she quickly covered her mouth with her hand.
Finished, did she... fall into a trap?
Nangong Yaoling had initially just wanted to test Qi Yue, but unexpectedly, before he even spoke, Qi Yue had already revealed it.
A surge of ecstatic joy suddenly swept through his heart.
It seems the child is his, and that is beyond doubt now!
"You should know, Situ Yan is a merciless hitman, he took Xiaonuan away regardless of whether it’s to get back at me. But... Xiaonuan is with him, what if he gets upset one day and harms Xiaonuan’s child?
If Xiaonuan loses the child, she probably wouldn’t survive either.
When that time comes, how would you explain it to your best friend?"
"A hit... hitman?" Qi Yue’s entire face turned pale instantly upon hearing that.
So, Situ Yan was actually a hitman?
So terrifying...
Then Xiaonuan has been in danger all along.
"No... Xiaonuan said Situ was very good to her!" Qi Yue quickly retorted, thinking of something.
"That’s because Xiaonuan hasn’t left with him yet. Once he gets Xiaonuan, you think the fish is caught and he’ll continue to be good to Xiaonuan?" Nangong Yaoling asked in a cold voice.
Qi Yue instantly fell apart.
"What to do? Xiaonuan... Young Master, you must save Xiaonuan! She was forced into this, she never wanted to leave, it was because... because..."
