Chapter 513 - 515: You in the Depths of Memory1
Could it be that he has found out she is Qiqi?But the next second, she shook her head again.
That time, he was clearly unconscious!
"Yes, I really don’t remember. It’s just... the name Qiqi keeps popping into my mind... Do you know her?" Liang Shaochen really wanted to tell her the truth, but... he didn’t have the courage to say it. Besides, with all the current obstacles between them, he didn’t want to add to her burden.
Xia Xiaonuan felt a slight warmth in her heart.
He truly doesn’t remember, yet he still recalls the name Qiqi.
She smiled: "Mm... I heard that you’ve been looking for her all along."
"Did I find her?"
"... Maybe you did, maybe you didn’t."
"What do you mean?"
Xia Xiaonuan fell silent.
She couldn’t let him remember Qiqi; otherwise, he would think of Jiang Xue and remember the pain he suffered.
"We’re just ordinary friends, I’m not really sure... Anyway, I’m tired, you should rest early too. Goodnight..."
Liang Shaochen stared at the line of characters on the screen.
His heart tightened bit by bit.
Qiqi, do you think I have found you or not?
"Goodnight..." Qiqi.
He typed out these two words and placed his phone on his chest.
Xia Xiaonuan gazed at the screen, a slight smile forming at the corners of her lips, and then she closed her eyes.
...
The next day, Xia Xiaonuan went to the company.
Everyone was happy to see her; Christmas was approaching, and Director Jin said they would celebrate together that night.
Qi Yue held her hand, showing concern and asking about her and the Crown Prince’s situation.
Xia Xiaonuan didn’t want her to worry, so she just said it was the same as before.
In fact, they were officially entering the stage of living apart, weren’t they?
But Nangong Yaoling allowing her to stay at Nangong Feihong’s house, was that considered setting her free?
Xia Xiaonuan didn’t know.
She didn’t dare to mention divorce again, not wanting to force Nangong Yaoling into doing something rash because of her impatience.
After all, in front of him now, she was nothing but a weakling.
******
Nangong Yaoling looked at the girl before him.
Five years had passed, yet the same face remained.
However, he always felt that the feeling she gave him was completely different from what he imagined.
Jiang Xue, slicing her steak, smiled at Nangong Yaoling: "Why are you looking at me like that? Did my makeup smudge?"
Nangong Yaoling shook his head: "No, you look beautiful."
The customers at a few nearby tables couldn’t help but glance over at them.
A handsome man and a beautiful woman, especially with the noble aura Nangong Yaoling exuded, it seemed that no matter where he was, he would always be the center of attention.
Jiang Xue watched the man with the exquisite face and noble identity before her.
She started to feel jealous of Xia Xiaonuan again.
If it weren’t for Xia Xiaonuan, perhaps the man in front of her would already be her husband, and the rightful Mrs. Nangong would be her.
Jiang Xue’s slicing of the steak became a bit heavier.
A harsh sound sliced through the air.
She snapped out of her thoughts and smiled awkwardly.
Nangong Yaoling raised his glass of red wine: "Do you have something on your mind?"
"No..."
"How have you been all these years? When did you begin to lose your memory? Jiang Xue, tell me about yourself."
A trace of barely noticeable panic flashed in Jiang Xue’s eyes.
The next second, she gave a poised smile.
"Actually, it’s nothing much. My adoptive parents are ordinary people. My mother is a teacher, my father works in state-owned enterprises. They lost their biological daughter, so they always treated me like their own daughter. These years, I’ve been like many other girls."
