Chapter 682 - 694: We Owe Each Other Nothing
"That’s good. The old master has gone upstairs to rest. The young master asked me to tell you that he is waiting for you in the living room."Xia Xiaonuan nodded.
In the living room, Nangong Yaoling sat on the sofa with a cold, handsome face.
He was smoking alone.
Amidst the curling smoke, his face looked somewhat indistinct, but his contours were still stunningly beautiful.
But beneath this beautiful facade lay a cold and ruthless heart!
Xia Xiaonuan thought as she walked forward.
"Why did you do this?" She looked at him icily, questioning, "You know very well about Zhong Li’s current situation..." She glanced at the servants in the corner and didn’t continue.
Nangong Yaoling blew a smoke ring, not even lifting his head, nor casting a glance at her.
"Just because of this, did I hand over Zhong Li to that young brat, Liang Shaochen, otherwise, do you think I would be willing to let Zhong Li be with him?"
Xia Xiaonuan let out a cold laugh.
As if Liang Shaochen was void of any issues.
"What will happen to Qin Yi because of your actions?" Xia Xiaonuan asked through gritted teeth.
"You worry too much." Nangong Yaoling lifted his eyes and gave her a cold glance.
He got up, "Let’s go, I’ll take you back." He said expressionlessly.
At this moment, the butler hurriedly approached with his coat, helping him put it on.
Nangong Yaoling began to walk towards the door.
Upon reaching the doorway, he paused.
Turning back, he saw Xia Xiaonuan still standing there in a daze, "What? Planning to stay here?" After saying that, a servant opened the door for him, and he turned around and walked out.
Xia Xiaonuan clenched her fists and had no choice but to follow him.
In the car.
Nangong Yaoling drove with an expressionless face, while Xia Xiaonuan sat beside him, looking rather distracted.
He glanced at her sideways.
"What’s wrong, feeling sad?" he asked mockingly.
Xia Xiaonuan ignored him and turned her face to the side.
"You two were never going to work out. Even if we got a divorce, even if Liang Shaochen truly liked you and was willing to marry you, Liang Jingzong is the type who values money above all else. Do you think he would let you in?"
Xia Xiaonuan’s lips curved into a cold smile.
"You worry too much!" She coldly threw his words back at him.
Nangong Yaoling’s lips twitched.
As the car drove into the city, Xia Xiaonuan asked, "When will Grandpa return to Europe? When will I have my freedom back?"
Nangong Yaoling’s face turned slightly grim.
"What, already planning to burn bridges? Aren’t you afraid the Xia Group will fall into the same predicament again?"
"Don’t worry, my father recently secured another project. The Xia Group can’t remain dependent on others forever. Relying on others is not a long-term strategy!"
She had only recently learned about her father’s plans, and even heard that a mysterious individual had invested in the Xia Family.
If this person had come sooner, perhaps she wouldn’t have needed to humble herself and hold any press conference with Nangong Yaoling.
"So you’re growing wings now and want to fly solo?"
"Isn’t that exactly what you hoped for? Once Grandpa leaves, we’ll get divorced immediately. From then on, we owe each other nothing!"
Suddenly, Nangong Yaoling took a turn and parked the car at the roadside.
Xia Xiaonuan looked at the unfamiliar surroundings outside the window, "Why are you stopping here... Ah..."
Suddenly, her wrist was yanked forcefully, and she was pulled into Nangong Yaoling’s arms.
His breath enveloped her, and she struggled immediately, "What are you doing!?" She glared at him.
In response, her chin was suddenly grabbed, and Nangong Yaoling lowered his head and kissed her fiercely.
