Chapter 700 - 712: Have You Fallen in Love with Him?
Nangong Zhongli nodded: "Alright."Xia Xiaonuan sat alone on the bench, the hospital lights were very bright. Because it was early in the morning, the corridors were almost empty, making her feel a sudden emptiness in her heart.
Could it be that she really had to be with Situ Yan?
She could imagine how furious Nangong Yaoling would be if he knew about this, but... it’s already come to this. Her head hurt, and she reached out to support her forehead.
At that moment, a set of footsteps came, and she felt the light in front of her eyes dim.
Startled, she looked up to see Liang Shaochen appear before her, his handsome face shadowed, looking somewhat inscrutable.
She widened her eyes at him, but he suddenly reached out, grabbed her wrist, and walked outside.
"Follow me!" he said in a deep voice.
"Shaochen, what are you doing? This is a hospital, let go of me..."
If Nangong Zhongli saw them like this, what would happen?
However, Liang Shaochen’s entire body was tense, and he simply gritted his teeth and said, "I can’t care about that anymore."
Xia Xiaonuan couldn’t break free and was dragged to the corner of the stairs before he finally let go of her hand.
She reached out to rub her wrist: "Shaochen..."
"Qiqi, what exactly is going on?" Liang Shaochen’s gaze was fixed on her, urgently questioning.
"What... what do you mean?" Xia Xiaonuan blinked, feeling a bit guilty.
"How did Nangong Yaoling suddenly get injured? Why do you care so much about his safety? And... who was the person who donated blood for Nangong Yaoling? Is it related to you?"
Xia Xiaonuan was stunned by his barrage of questions.
Liang Shaochen reached out and firmly gripped her shoulders: "Answer me! Qiqi... have you started to guard against me? Don’t you trust me or care about me at all?"
"No... it’s not like that." Xia Xiaonuan was pricked by his intense gaze, and hurriedly shook her head, organizing her thoughts as she said, "I... this was an accident. After all, I am his wife, I can’t just stay out of it, can I?"
"Wife..." Liang Shaochen seemed to have been struck on the head, staring at her in a daze, muttering those two words.
Those words cut through his heart like a knife.
"I’m sorry..." Xia Xiaonuan thought of what he said to her in the park.
She had once said she would only marry Nan Mo.
"Qiqi, do you really see him as just a husband in name? But the way you just cared about him and were so worried makes me feel like he has a place in your heart. You care about him, don’t you?"
Xia Xiaonuan’s body shook violently.
Liang Shaochen’s grip on her shoulders tightened bit by bit. He stared at her, his pupils filled with pain and doubt, even a trace of disappointment...
That was the look she was afraid to see.
Instinctively, she wanted to deny it, but... her heart told her it was true. After all, Nangong Yaoling had done so much for her, and although some of it wasn’t in ways she liked, they had lived together for so long. How could she have no feelings at all?
After all, people are not plants; how can they be emotionless?
In the past, she tried hard to escape him, wanting to stay as far away from him as possible.
But, when he was really in trouble, she realized that her heart couldn’t bear it.
