The Young Master's Escaping Bride Who Lost Memories

Chapter 1129: Chapter 1149: What Is Our Relationship Now?

Nangong Zhongli heard the voice, the corners of her lips curved up slightly, and she accepted the gift box and opened it.

The next second, when she saw the necklace inside the box, she couldn’t help but cover her mouth with her hand.

”This...”

”I chose this gift a long time ago, but never gave it to you. Today, since we happened to meet, I hope you like it.”

Shaochen said with a smile.

Nangong Zhongli looked at Shaochen in disbelief.

In an instant, her eyes were slightly red.

Once upon a time, she dreamed of receiving this necklace from him.

She thought that when the necklace was taken away, he had given it to Xia Xiaonuan.

But, unexpectedly... it was really bought for her?

Nangong Zhongli could hardly believe her eyes and ears.

”You... are you serious? Is this necklace really meant for me?”

Shaochen looked at her, not answering, but instead got up, took the necklace from the gift box, and walked behind Nangong Zhongli.

”Let me put it on for you.”

Nangong Zhongli trembled slightly and nodded heavily.

Shaochen reached out his hand, gently moved her hair aside.

He fastened the necklace from the front and then secured the clasp at the back.

However, while fastening the clasp, his movements froze for a moment.

His gaze fixed on the woman in front of him.

In his mind, Xia Xiaonuan’s face appeared.

He had imagined, that he would personally put it on his Qiqi...

Shaochen, what are you doing?

Are you crazy?

No... he wasn’t crazy, he had simply come to realize the reality clearly.

His Qiqi, was no longer the Qiqi of the past, and why should he foolishly hold on to a hollow past?

Xia Xiaonuan, even without you, I can still live well.

But, you must understand, losing me means losing someone who loves you deeply.

Shaochen fastened the clasp, Nangong Zhongli lifted her eyes, her gaze met his.

For almost a second, what he saw before him was not the face of Nangong Zhongli.

However, the scent of her perfume reminded him, and brought his rationality back.

He smiled at her.

”Does it look good?” Nangong Zhongli asked apprehensively.

Shaochen sat down in front of her, looked at her and said, ”This necklace truly suits you.”

Nangong Zhongli asked in confusion, ”But didn’t you say that day, this necklace...”

”How else could I surprise you?”

Nangong Zhongli lowered her eyes slightly.

”Shaochen... thank you.”

Shaochen looked at her: ”Alright... hurry and order the meal.”

Nangong Zhongli nodded.

Time slipped by like water.

A week later.

Xia Xiaonuan finished her bath and came out of the bathroom, hearing Nangong Yaoling on the phone.

”Yes, I know. Okay, please tell Mr. Tang that I will attend. Alright.”

While Xia Xiaonuan dried her hair, she applied lotion, looked at Nangong Yaoling and asked, ”Whose call was that?”

Nangong Yaoling extended his hand to her.

Xia Xiaonuan walked over to him, and Nangong Yaoling held her, looked at her and said, ”In a few days is the Tang Group’s Elder Tang’s birthday banquet. My grandfather and Elder Tang are old acquaintances, and I’ve been invited to attend.”

”Oh.” Xia Xiaonuan smiled and nodded, ”Should I go with you?”

She knew that in such occasions, especially attending an elder’s birthday banquet, she should attend as Nangong Yaoling’s wife.

Nangong Yaoling opened a nearby drawer, took out a hairdryer.

He thought for a moment and asked, ”Can you manage?” His gaze flicked to her abdomen.

”It’s fine, but...
