Chapter 982 - 1002: Calling Another Woman’s Name
Because, she cannot let Shaochen miss her for a lifetime.
"Qiqi... Qiqi..."
Suddenly, the man on the bed’s eyelashes trembled slightly, his thin lips parted, murmuring something.
"Xiaonuan... don’t... don’t leave me..."
Nangong Zhongli paused, leaning closer to hear clearly what he was saying!
In an instant, her whole body shook violently.
Nangong Zhongli abruptly let go of Liang Shaochen’s hand, getting up and stepping back.
Why... why even in his dreams, he thinks of that woman!
Tears rushed out of her eyes, Nangong Zhongli shook her head forcefully, listening to the man on the bed calling out that name incessantly.
She covered her ears with her hands.
No... she doesn’t want to hear! She doesn’t want to hear him calling another woman’s name!
However, it seemed that even covering her ears tightly, she could still hear his voice calling louder and louder.
But actually, Liang Shaochen lying on the bed was no longer making any sound.
Nangong Zhongli staggered all the way, as if she had seen a ghost, rushing out of the bedroom.
She bumped into a servant coming towards her, and the servant was frightened and quickly apologized. Nangong Zhongli looked disoriented, just charging down the stairs and out of the villa.
She rushed to her car, and the car sped along the highway.
Xia Xiaonuan... Xia Qiqi...
Why do you always linger like a specter!
Why do you, who have undeniably died, have to come back as Xia Xiaonuan to torment me!
Nangong Zhongli’s pupils flared red, glaring at the road ahead.
All the way, unbeknownst to herself, she drove to Nangong Yaoling’s home.
She knew the Crown Prince was always looking for Xia Xiaonuan’s whereabouts.
She couldn’t let him find Xia Xiaonuan...
Unexpectedly, upon entering, the servant informed her that the Crown Prince had already left.
Apparently to pick up the young mistress.
"What? What did you say!?" Nangong Zhongli grabbed the servant’s shoulder, staring incredulously.
The servant’s face turned pale with fright: "Zhong Li... Miss Zhong Li... Are you alright?"
What’s wrong with Miss Zhong Li? Normally, she is calm and composed. It’s rare for her to lose her composure like this.
Nangong Zhongli came to her senses.
But she couldn’t help it, a trace of a smile appeared at the corner of her lips, releasing the servant, she said, "I’m just too worried about your young mistress... so, I got a bit excited."
The servant quickly responded with a respectful smile: "Miss Zhong Li, don’t worry, Young Master cares deeply for the young mistress, he will definitely find her!"
Nangong Zhongli looked at the servant: "Do you know where he went to look?"
The servant shook his head: "Miss Zhong Li, such matters we servants wouldn’t dare inquire about. You... you might want to call Young Master and ask him?"
Nangong Zhongli nodded: "I understand."
Finishing her words, she turned and rushed out the door.
The streetlights elongated the shadow.
Nangong Zhongli slowly pulled out her phone.
Since... Nangong Yaoling left, then Qin Yi must be with him now, right?
The streetlight cast a yellow hue on her delicate face, her lips curled into a charming smile, she slowly dialed the number.
Outside the ward, Qin Yi, who had just returned from outside, didn’t expect Nangong Zhongli to call him at this moment.
But...
His gaze shifted to the ward door not far away.
Clenching his teeth, he resolutely slipped the phone into his pocket.
Without needing to think, he could guess the reason for her call.
Although... he missed her a lot... wanted to hear her voice, yet... he couldn’t let her continue making mistakes, nor could he become a tool for her mistakes, adding fuel to the fire.
