As soon as they entered, the restaurant manager eagerly ca up to greet them.
"Ah, Young Master, Young Madam, you’re here!"
Xia Xiaonuan had been here with Nangong Yaoling before, so the manager recognized her.
Xia Xiaonuan nodded and smiled.
"The table is ready, Young Master, Young Madam, please follow ."
The two of them were led to a quiet corner.
Nangong Yaoling looked at Xiaonuan, "Today, don’t think about anything, just enjoy a nice al, okay?"
Xia Xiaonuan smiled and nodded, "Mm."
Just then, they heard the manager’s surprised voice from not far away, "President Liang, Miss Nangong, this way please! It’s quite lively today, the Young Master is here too."
Xia Xiaonuan was taken aback and turned slightly.
She saw Liang Shaochen and Nangong Zhongli walking towards them.
Liang Shaochen was in a white shirt and black suit, clearly having co straight from the company. Nangong Zhongli, in a rose-pink coat and high heels, exuded a commanding presence.
Xia Xiaonuan couldn’t help but change her expression slightly.
Seeing the two appear in front of them, Nangong Yaoling’s face also darkened.
"Oh, Crown Prince, Xiaonuan, what a coincidence, you’re here to eat too? Xiaonuan, when did you co back? You didn’t call , I was worried about you."
Xia Xiaonuan forced a smile and said, "I just got back a few days ago."
Liang Shaochen glanced at Xia Xiaonuan, a complex look flickering in his eyes.
His gaze then fell on Nangong Yaoling, "Crown Prince, Xiaonuan, what a coincidence indeed."
Nangong Yaoling said, "Yes, I’ve heard you and Zhongli are doing well recently, seeing you today confirms it." As he spoke, his gaze involuntarily fell on Xia Xiaonuan’s face.
He noticed Xia Xiaonuan’s pale expression, and she seed deeply preoccupied.
Nangong Yaoling’s pupils contracted slightly.
"Brother, can we sit together?"
"Sure," Nangong Yaoling said generously.
Just like that, as Nangong Zhongli was about to sit next to Xiaonuan, Xia Xiaonuan couldn’t help but move slightly away.
Nangong Yaoling furrowed his brows, giving Xiaonuan a complicated look.
Without saying a word, he got up and moved to the seat next to Xiaonuan.
"You should be with Shaochen. Xiaonuan is pregnant now, I need to watch over her to make sure she doesn’t eat anything inappropriate."
Nangong Zhongli seemingly didn’t mind, sat across from Xiaonuan and smiled, "Brother, you really treat Xiaonuan so well. Xiaonuan, I’m really envious of you!" As she spoke, her gaze moved to Liang Shaochen.
Liang Shaochen’s gaze fell on Xia Xiaonuan’s face, then shifted away calmly.
Nangong Zhongli thought of that necklace and clenched her fist.
"By the way, Xiaonuan... I heard your mother passed away, don’t be too sad, try to be positive. You’re carrying my brother’s child now, your health is the most important, okay?" Nangong Zhongli said seemingly with concern.
Liang Shaochen’s hand trembled slightly as he held the napkin.
Xia Xiaonuan smiled, "Thank you, I will." Today, Nangong Zhongli wore her usual perfu from Emma, which Xia Xiaonuan used to find quite pleasant when they were together.
However, ever since she used that perfu, any fragrance on her seed instinctively repulsive to Xia Xiaonuan.
Even looking at her too much made Xia Xiaonuan uncomfortable.
Her feelings towards Nangong Zhongli were truly complex.
Nangong Yaoling glanced at Xiaonuan and smirked, "Zhongli, you seem to be talking especially a lot today."
