"Very well..."
Nan Mo nodded, a flicker of sinister killing intent flashing in his eyes.
...
In the evening, Xia Xiaonuan and Qi Yue were nestled together on the small bed.
Qi Yue played with her phone while speaking gossip, "Xiaonuan, do you think Nangong Zhongli and Shaochen will still be together?"
Xia Xiaonuan, lying on the bed in a daze, was startled by the sound.
"Why do you ask that?"
"Nangong Zhongli clearly knows that Shaochen doesn’t like her, but Jiang Xue. However, she hides it from him, making us keep it a secret too. You don’t know how guilty I feel every ti I look at Shaochen!"
Xia Xiaonuan showed a bitter smile.
"Yes... but they used to be lovers. Maybe, making Shaochen forget that part is not necessarily a bad thing for him."
"But isn’t that deceit?" Qi Yue said, puzzled, "All of us helping him like this is a form of deception. If one day Shaochen recalls the past, will he bla us?"
Xia Xiaonuan sighed softly.
Silence suddenly fell.
Qi Yue was right. Shaochen actually cared about Jiang Xue. But now, due to amnesia, he mistakenly believes he deeply loved Nangong Zhongli.
"Oh, right!" Qi Yue rembered sothing, turning around and pulling Xia Xiaonuan’s arm, "I just rembered... Shaochen didn’t love Nangong Zhongli because he was thinking about Jiang Xue.
Now, having forgotten Jiang Xue, he might genuinely fall for Nangong Zhongli! If that’s the case, wouldn’t everyone be happy? We wouldn’t feel guilty anymore!"
Qi Yue said excitedly.
Xia Xiaonuan was startled to hear this.
"Yes... yes." She looked at Qi Yue’s excited face and nodded.
"That’s just great!" Qi Yue lay down, smug about her "brilliant idea."
Xia Xiaonuan, however, felt inexplicably disappointed.
Would Nan Mo really fall in love with Nangong Zhongli?
She took out her phone, suddenly wanting to text him.
However, rembering what had happened during the day, she lost her courage.
Although she was free now, she was still a divorced woman.
And Nangong Zhongli, noble, gracious, beautiful, and elegant.
What right did she have to dream?
A sleepless night, tossing and turning.
Only fell asleep lightly at dawn.
Her phone rang just after a short sleep.
Startled by the abrupt ringtone, they both jumped.
Qi Yue, hazy and disgruntled, said, "Who is calling you so early..."
Xia Xiaonuan reached for the phone.
"Hello..."
"Xiaonuan, where are you? Such a huge thing happened, and you’re still sleeping! How did you and Nan Mo get divorced? What’s going on!?" Mrs. Xia’s shouting ca from the phone, snapping Xia Xiaonuan awake instantly.
She quickly sat up, "Mom... it’s a long story. I..."
"I’m at the Crown Prince’s house with your father now! The Crown Prince isn’t here. If Yun hadn’t told you were divorced, I would still be in the dark! Your father’s company ran into trouble, and you got divorced from the Crown Prince! Co back quickly!"
"Mom, why did you go there? I’ll be back soon; let’s talk at ho."
"Okay, Xiaonuan, hurry back!" Mrs. Xia urgently yelled.
After hanging up the phone, Xia Xiaonuan looked helpless.
Qi Yue asked worriedly, "Did Auntie find out about your situation?"
Xia Xiaonuan got out of bed, "No need... I knew this day would co, though I didn’t expect it so soon."
