Chapter 1009 - 1029: You Still Have a Chance
"I don’t care why you’re pretending to be Xia Qiqi and staying by the Crown Prince’s side. As long as you’re not the real Xia Qiqi, I won’t be your enemy."Jiang Xue stood there in a daze, looking at Nangong Zhongli’s noble and exquisite face, momentarily at a loss for words.
She didn’t expect that Nangong Zhongli actually knew, and moreover, he had found the real Xia Qiqi!
How could this be? Wasn’t Xia Qiqi already dead in a plane crash? When Situ Yan was setting her identity, it was because of this that he was confident in letting her become Qiqi.
Because as long as the real Xia Qiqi didn’t appear, her identity would never be easily exposed.
After several seconds, she slowly spoke, "You... you said you found Xia Qiqi?"
"..."
"I..." Jiang Xue looked around and asked through gritted teeth, "Where is she?"
After speaking, seeing the smile on Nangong Zhongli’s lips, a trace of embarrassment flashed across her face, "Fine, since you already know, I don’t want to beat around the bush anymore. I am indeed not Xia Qiqi, I just... just want to be with Prince Nangong."
Nangong Zhongli looked at Jiang Xue.
Although she doesn’t know why Jiang Xue is pretending to be Qiqi now. But right now, her most important enemy is Xia Xiaonuan. Once Xia Xiaonuan is removed, then Jiang Xue’s identity can be revealed.
That way, it achieves two purposes at once.
She’s never liked this woman, but for now, keeping her around is still useful.
"It’s just..." Jiang Xue thought of something and couldn’t help asking, "What does this have to do with Xia Xiaonuan? She..."
"That’s something you don’t need to know. In short, I’m telling you now, my brother has gone to Australia and found Xia Xiaonuan. It’s very possible that in a few days, he’ll bring her back.
Do you think, by then, when they’re reconciled as a couple, you’ll still have a chance to stay by the Crown Prince’s side?"
Jiang Xue was slightly shaken.
"Young Master... he found Xiaonuan?"
"Yes."
"Then... that Situ Yan... I mean, didn’t he take Xiaonuan away?" Jiang Xue suddenly felt a bad premonition surge in her heart, nervously stirring her milk tea as she asked innocently.
"Situ Yan is already dead. So naturally, he wouldn’t pose a danger to the Crown Prince in taking Xiaonuan."
"Bang!"
The milk tea in Jiang Xue’s hand fell onto the table.
Nangong Zhongli squinted his eyes.
"What’s wrong with you? I said Situ Yan is dead, why are you so agitated?"
Jiang Xue snapped back to reality, her face a bit pale, hastily grabbing a napkin to wipe the milk tea from the table.
The air was filled with the aroma of milk tea and a suffocating atmosphere of destruction.
She looked at Nangong Zhongli, suppressing the tremor in her chest, and asked, "Are you serious? That person is dead? Then... Xiaonuan will definitely come back?"
Nangong Zhongli chuckled, "Of course. That’s what the Crown Prince said himself. I had thought Situ Yan was capable, but who’d have thought that once my brother made a move, he died just like that, truly a pity."
Nangong Zhongli shook her head, initially thinking that with Situ Yan taking Xiaonuan away, everything would be solved. Now, it’s all in disarray again.
Jiang Xue stood there frozen.
"That’s why I called you here today. As long as Xiaonuan doesn’t come back, you still have a chance!"
She nodded, "I understand... I will go to Australia, to find Prince Nangong..."
