Nan Mo, could it be that it’s truly my heart that has moved the heavens? Should I really be satisfied now?
Liang Shaochen lowered his head, gently kissing her forehead, kissing her over and over again. They held each other, reluctant to let go for a long ti.
Until Xia Xiaonuan’s phone rang.
Both of them were startled. Liang Shaochen let go of her. She quickly took out her phone.
On the screen, the word "Husband" was prominently displayed, piercing Liang Shaochen’s eyes.
He gave her a look, and she, flustered, imdiately turned around, avoiding him as she walked a short distance away.
Then she answered the phone.
The cold voice of Nangong Yaoling ca from the other side.
"Xia Xiaonuan, where did you go? Why haven’t you co ho yet? Do you know the whole family is waiting for you to start dinner?"
Upon hearing this, Xia Xiaonuan quickly said, "You all don’t have to wait for . I just had dinner with Qi Yue. Can you please tell Grandpa for ..." The whole family is waiting for her? Clearly, it’s just him and Grandpa two people, right!
"Xia Xiaonuan, you have so nerve! Didn’t you just promise you’d co back? And now you’re saying you’ve already eaten?!" Nangong Yaoling’s dissatisfied voice ca from the other end.
"Alright... that’s enough, I’m hanging up now." Xia Xiaonuan finished speaking and hastily hung up the phone.
She turned around to find Liang Shaochen standing under the streetlight, smoking alone.
She walked up to him.
"I have to go back now..."
Liang Shaochen seed to take a deep breath, trying to suppress his emotions.
He extinguished the cigarette in his hand.
Stepping forward, he wrapped his arm around her shoulders, leading her towards the car.
Xia Xiaonuan looked at the passersby on the street, feeling a bit uneasy as she struggled slightly.
However, Liang Shaochen didn’t let go of her but instead opened the car door and put her inside.
He closed the car door, turned around, and got into the driver’s seat.
Her phone rang again. Xia Xiaonuan hung up, but Nangong Yaoling kept calling.
Seated next to her, Liang Shaochen suddenly reached out, grabbing her phone, ready to answer it.
Terrified, Xia Xiaonuan quickly grabbed his arm and shouted, "No—" She looked at him pleadingly.
Liang Shaochen held the phone as if it were a scalding hot potato.
He looked deeply into her eyes, seeing the panic and helplessness in her eyes. He gritted his teeth in restraint and handed the phone back to her.
"Qiqi, tell him that you two are already divorced! You will have nothing more to do with him!" He looked at her intently, speaking earnestly.
Holding the vibrating phone, Xia Xiaonuan felt her heart trembling in sync with the ringing.
Suddenly, the mory of Nangong Yaoling’s words from that night flashed in her mind.
"Xia Xiaonuan, don’t get too proud. If you want to follow Liang Shaochen to your deaths, I would be happy to assist you to the end!"
In an instant, she felt an overwhelming sorrow in her heart.
"I’m sorry... Shaochen." She lowered her head, saying, "Don’t force ... I beg you." She wrapped her arms around her head, speaking with difficulty.
A hand slowly covered the top of her head where her hands were.
"Xiaonuan..." he said hoarsely, "You’re clearly divorced. Why do you still want to be with him? I told you, if you need anything, I can help you! Why do you insist on staying by his side? Or... could it be... unconsciously, you’ve already tilted the scales of your heart towards him?"
His suspicion wasn’t unfounded.
After all, who was Nangong Yaoling? He was always known as a heartbreaker. No matter which woman, it seed she would be enchanted by him.
