The Young Master's Escaping Bride Who Lost Memories

Chapter 1040: Chapter 1060: Heart-to-Heart Necklace

His gaze fell on the girl in front of him, who wore a look of disappointment.

Xia Xiaonuan sat by the bed, picking up Qi Yue’s phone.

The police said she had reported a case before.

So... it must have been because her house was robbed!

”Miss Xia, may I ask if you know if there is something important on Miss Qi Yue? We suspect it might be related to something on her body.”

Xia Xiaonuan sat in front of the sofa, her gaze blankly looking at the police chief.

”As far as I know, Qi Yue usually doesn’t have any treasures on her... Moreover, she’s carefree enough that if she had something, I would probably know about it...”

”Has she taken someone else’s stuff, or did anyone give her something? Recently, I mean...”

Hearing the officer’s words, suddenly, something sparked in Xia Xiaonuan’s mind.

”That’s right!” She looked up, suddenly understanding, as she stepped forward, looking at Nangong Yaoling: ”I remember now, Qi Yue called me before saying my mom had looked for her and given her a contract... Could it be... Could it be that item?”

Nangong Yaoling slightly furrowed his brow.

His gaze turned to the police station.

”Director Li, my wife’s mother just passed away a few days ago. Could this matter be related?”

The police chief’s face slightly changed.

”Young Master, indeed, there are quite a few doubts about this situation. Please allow me to go back and investigate!”

”Alright.”

After leaving Qi Yue’s house, Xia Xiaonuan was helped into the car by Nangong Yaoling.

In the car, Xia Xiaonuan looked at Nangong Yaoling and said, ”I want to go home for a bit.”

Nangong Yaoling reached out and held her hand.

”Xiaonuan, you are pregnant now, and you’ve been running around since getting off the plane. Going home now won’t solve anything. Trust me, let’s go back and rest first. Tomorrow, I’ll go to the Xia Family with you, okay?”

Xia Xiaonuan said anxiously, ”But... I haven’t visited my mom since she passed... Otherwise, could you take me to the cemetery...?”

”Xiaonuan.” The man slightly tightened his grip on her hand.

Xia Xiaonuan gazed at his sympathetic look and leaned her head on his shoulder.

Nangong Yaoling reached out, gently touching her head.

”Be good, Xiaonuan, let me handle this matter, okay?”

Xia Xiaonuan looked at Nangong Yaoling and nodded.

Just then, Nangong Yaoling’s phone rang.

”Hello...”

”Yaoling, it’s me...” Jiang Xue’s voice came from the other side.

Nangong Yaoling slightly furrowed his brows.

”What’s the matter?”

”I... Where are you? I want to see you.”

”I don’t have time right now. If there’s nothing urgent, I’m going to hang up.”

”Hey...” Jiang Xue wanted to say something more, but all she heard was the dial tone.

She sat in the car, looking at the street ahead.

Overnight, Nangong Yaoling’s attitude toward her had completely changed.

Was it just because she knew Xiaonuan was pregnant with his child?

Jiang Xue’s lips curled into a cold smile.

Xia Xiaonuan, you’ve taken everything from me; do you really think you can continue to live happily?

A trace of malice flashed in the woman’s eyes.

In the mall.

Nangong Zhongli casually strolled with Liang Shaochen, arm in arm.

”Shaochen, let’s take a look over there,” Nangong Zhongli pointed to a jewelry counter not far away.

”Alright.” Liang Shaochen nodded slightly.

The two of them went to the jewelry counter.

Nangong Zhongli examined the necklaces, and Liang Shaochen followed beside her.
