The Young Master's Escaping Bride Who Lost Memories

Chapter 1377: Chapter 1394: Will Nangong Yaoling Believe It?

Xiaonuan lifted her eyes; thinking of something, crystalline tears shimmered in them.

”It was her... she’s the one who killed my child.”

Liang Shaochen furrowed his brows tightly.

Looking at her reddened eyes, something stirred in his heart; he almost couldn’t stop himself from reaching out to grab the hand she’d placed on the table.

But he still held back.

Xiaonuan bit her lower lip, hesitated, and then told Liang Shaochen everything about that incident, about that necklace.

After listening, Liang Shaochen’s face turned ashen, one hand clenching into a tight fist.

”Damn it!” he growled in a low voice, and said, filled with guilt, ”It’s all my fault... this whole thing is my fault... If I’d known earlier there was something wrong with that necklace, I...”

”This isn’t your fault.” Xiaonuan said quickly, ”How could you have thought of that?”

Liang Shaochen let out a breath.

He closed his eyes for a moment, and when he thought of Nangong Zhongli, a chill rose in his heart.

He thought of that time in the hospital, when Xiaonuan had suddenly gone crazy at him.

Back then, he’d been completely baffled.

Looks like the one Nangong Zhongli wanted to deal with wasn’t just Xiaonuan.

It was him too...

What she wanted wasn’t the child in her womb, but to make her hate him forever, to make it forever impossible for them to be together.

Liang Shaochen clenched his fist; the joints of his fingers cracked loudly.

Xiaonuan let out a quiet sigh and said, ”Now... that Manager An is still in a coma, and although I’ve got the physical evidence, it still can’t prove that Zhong Li is the murderer.”

Besides, this matter had passed through Liang Shaochen’s hands.

If Nangong Yaoling found out, would he start to suspect Shaochen?

If Nangong Zhongli insisted she hadn’t done it, then in the end, the only person left who looked suspicious would be Liang Shaochen.

She could believe Liang Shaochen—but would Nangong Yaoling?

What if...

Xiaonuan didn’t dare think any further.

Because she thought of Situ Yan’s ending, and it made her whole body go cold.

”You’re right...” Liang Shaochen nodded.

”But don’t worry, I’ll help you with this. I know a few people around Zhong Li, and since she’s not in the country right now... I’ll find a way during this period.”

Hearing this, Xiaonuan’s eyes lit up.

”Really?” she said excitedly. ”That’s great!”

She had also thought about approaching the people around Nangong Zhongli, because only that way could she most directly find Nangong Zhongli’s fatal weakness.

But she’d never found a way in.

Liang Shaochen gave her a reassuring smile and said, ”Of course. Don’t worry, don’t rush—about this, I’ll definitely give you an explanation.”

Xiaonuan thought of something and spoke again, ”There’s one more thing... I suspect she did that too!”

”What is it?”

”The child in Qi Yue’s belly!” Xiaonuan said through gritted teeth. ”That had to be her doing too! That terrifying woman... it must be her!”

The smile on Liang Shaochen’s face vanished in an instant.

A flicker of barely detectable unease passed through his eyes, but very quickly, he looked at her and probed, ”Have you found anything? Are you sure this has nothing to do with the Young Master?”

”Yes.” Xiaonuan nodded firmly. ”I believe Nangong Yaoling. If he says he didn’t do it, then he definitely didn’t. So this must have been someone deliberately framing him, and the only person I can suspect is Nangong Zhongli.”

Liang Shaochen drew in a small breath.

His face looked a bit ugly; he picked up his coffee and lowered his head to take a sip.

I believe Nangong Yaoling.

I believe Nangong Yaoling.

Her words echoed in his ears, like a heavy hammer, landing a blow on the softest part of his heart.

She believed him.
