The Young Master's Escaping Bride Who Lost Memories

Chapter 127: Chapter 129 [129] Let’s Get Real 2

Fang Wan’s expression slightly changed at the words.

A trace of panic flashed in her eyes; Xia Xiaonuan’s words reminded her that even though Xia Xiaonuan was out of favor, she was still Nangong Yaoling’s wife, constantly with him. On the other hand, Fang Wan was just a minor actress who could be easily kicked out of the entertainment industry at any time, losing everything.

She forced a wry smile. ”Yes... then I have to thank you, sister.”

Just then, staff outside announced that the Crown Prince had arrived.

Fang Wan’s face turned pale instantly, and she glanced nervously at Xia Xiaonuan.

Xia Bunan simply applied an ice pack, smiling at her calmly.

From afar, Yang Zi’er’s voice reached them.

”Crown Prince... I shot a dangerous scene today and nearly got hurt... my hand... my hand is all red...”

”Really? How did you get so careless? Let me see,” Nangong Yaoling said gently.

Xia Xiaonuan couldn’t help but look up and saw Nangong Yaoling holding Yang Zi’er’s hand, gently rubbing it. The two were intimate, not caring about the eyes around them.

Director Jin Zhengyuan quickly instructed the staff to find a seat for the Crown Prince and said to Nangong Yaoling with flattery, ”This scene could actually have used a stunt double, but Zi’er insisted on doing it herself. Fortunately, there were no major issues.”

”Our Zi’er is really brave, I must reward you well.”

”Thank you, Crown Prince~” Zi’er grabbed Nangong Yaoling’s hand and shook it. ”So how will you reward Zi’er?”

Nangong Yaoling didn’t reply but instead looked around the entire set.

His gaze landed in the corner on Xia Xiaonuan, whose face was swollen on one side.

Looking at her severely swollen face, his body tensed ever so slightly, a handsome brow raised, and a flash of rage passed through his eyes.

Director Jin Zhengyuan, sensing the change, said uneasily, ”Xiaonuan was filming a slap scene this morning, and since it didn’t go smoothly...”

Nangong Yaoling’s lips curved into a mocking smile, ”With whom was she acting?”

”It was... Fang Wan...”

Nangong Yaoling’s gaze shifted indifferently towards Fang Wan.

Fang Wan stood there trembling, her face turning even paler under Nangong Yaoling’s cold stare.

The air turned eerily quiet for a moment.

Xia Xiaonuan also noticed the sudden stillness, and when she lifted her gaze, she realized everyone was looking at her in a strange way.

Her eyes fell on Nangong Yaoling, and seeing him still holding Yang Zi’er, a hint of scorn flashed in her eyes.

Nangong Yaoling naturally noticed Xia Xiaonuan’s look.

His heart trembled.

After a brief silence, he suddenly laughed.

”Very good, it’s rare to see such a serious and unyielding actress nowadays!” Nangong Yaoling said, smiling as he looked at Fang Wan.

Fang Wan felt almost overwhelmed by favor.

It was the first time Nangong Yaoling looked at her properly.

Indeed, Xia Xiaonuan was not favored at all by Nangong Yaoling.

She had just threatened her.

She took a few steps forward, smiling at Nangong Yaoling, ”Thank you for the praise, Crown Prince, I... I will continue to work hard.”

As she spoke, she tried her best to act coquettishly.

If she could seize this opportunity to gain the Crown Prince’s favor, she would soar in no time.

Before, she could only dream about speaking to the Crown Prince.

Usually, she could only watch from afar like everyone else.

But today, she not only received the Crown Prince’s praise but also stepped over Xia Xiaonuan and Yang Zi’er.

She might go home and laugh out loud in her dreams tonight.
