The Young Master's Escaping Bride Who Lost Memories

Chapter 42: Chapter 42: Shameless

His hand was large, his palm warm, completely covering half of her face, making her heart tremble. She glared at him coldly:

”You are despicable!”

”I don’t need pride, I only need you.” Instead of getting angry, he pinched her cheek with his large hand, making Xia Xiaonuan’s face distort.

Xia Xiaonuan tried to grab his hand, just about to speak when the car slowly came to a stop.

The driver in the front coughed dryly, pretending not to see the love scene unfolding in the back. To an outsider, Xia Xiaonuan and Nangong Yaoling seemed like two affectionate lovers bantering.

He turned slightly, and with respect, said: ”Young Master, Young Mistress, we have arrived.”

Xia Xiaonuan raised her gaze to see that outside the car was the city’s largest five-star hotel.

Nangong Yaoling patted her cheek with his large hand and gave her a wicked smile: ”Let’s go!” With that, he turned and got out of the car.

Xia Xiaonuan rubbed the half of her face, hating him with a gnashing of teeth.

Nangong Yaoling said: ”Take my arm.”

Xia Xiaonuan kept her distance, pretending not to hear him.

”Behave.” Nangong Yaoling looked at her as if instructing a child: ”If you want to throw a tantrum, do it at home. This is a public place.” He raised his arm towards her.

Knowing that they had already arrived, Xia Xiaonuan could only play along with this act. After all, she was Nangong Yaoling’s wife. She couldn’t disgrace the Nangong Family, let alone the old Xia Xiaonuan.

As for herself, she considered this a sacrifice she had to make after escaping death!

Thinking this, Xia Xiaonuan reluctantly took Nangong Yaoling’s arm.

At that moment, many people came out to greet them enthusiastically, calling out to Nangong Yaoling.

Xia Xiaonuan followed Nangong Yaoling, making the rounds.

Everyone showed respect to Nangong Yaoling, toasting him and making small talk.

It seemed as though his mere presence made him the center of attention.

Xia Xiaonuan couldn’t avoid some chit-chat herself. Although she received a lot of attention, after numerous rounds, her stomach was burning and her face was flushed from the drinks.

She was about to find an opportunity to sneak off.

”Yaoling, you’re here.” Just then, a deep voice sounded overhead. The voice was so familiar that Xia Xiaonuan froze completely.

Nangong Yaoling heard it too and was equally stunned.

Quickly, he led Xia Xiaonuan forward and punched the man in the chest with joy: ”Shaochen? When did you return?”

”A few days ago.” The man smiled, his gaze landing on Xia Xiaonuan: ”This must be your wife, then?”

He had a gentle, refined smile on his exceptionally handsome face, with an air of warmth in his eyebrows. His white custom-made suit highlighted his tall and elegant figure.

Xia Xiaonuan felt all the expressions on her face freeze, even her heartbeat stuttered when her eyes met his face.

Her mind almost went blank.

”Yes, this is Xia Xiaonuan. Xiaonuan, this is my good buddy, Shaochen...”

”Xiaonuan?”

Xia Xiaonuan stood there, dumbfounded, unable to hear what anyone else was saying. Her heart surged with shock and disbelief, even doubting her own eyes. It wasn’t until Nangong Yaoling shook her arm that she came back to her senses.

She looked at Nangong Yaoling and saw a hint of anger in his eyes.
