The Young Master's Escaping Bride Who Lost Memories

Chapter 1183: Chapter 1203: Because the Child Is Situ Yan’s

Gentle and elegant—these were just his appearances.

He wasn’t like the Young Master, who appeared domineering and cold on the surface, yet his was a subtle kind of presence.

On the surface, he seemed quite gentlemanly, but his words and actions always commanded respect, making others wary of crossing boundaries.

Because you could never know where his bottom line was or when it might suddenly erupt someday.

Qi Yue looked at Shaochen and inexplicably felt very nervous.

”You don’t need to be nervous.” Shaochen’s gaze fell on her tightly clasped hands. He smiled and said, ”You are Xiaonuan’s friend, which of course makes you my friend too. If there’s anything you need or any help, just speak up.”

Hearing this, Qi Yue let out a slight sigh of relief.

She looked at Shaochen and said, ”Actually... I know I shouldn’t have come to you... but I’m truly at a dead end. No one else can help me but you...”

Shaochen frowned slightly.

This serious? Could it not be about Xiaonuan?

He asked, puzzled, ”What on earth is it? Why are you so afraid? Rest assured, I’ll do my best to help with what I can.”

Qi Yue bit her lower lip.

The aroma of the latte spread in the air, and she took a deep breath.

Looking up at Shaochen, she said, ”I hope you can help me leave this place.”

Shaochen reached out his hand and rubbed his chin.

”Uh... could you explain in more detail? You want to leave here? Why? Does Xiaonuan know about this?”

”She doesn’t know.” Qi Yue said nervously, ”Please, don’t tell her. She’s not well, and I don’t want her to worry about me.”

Shaochen nodded.

He did not speak but looked at Qi Yue, waiting for her to continue.

Qi Yue thought for a moment and said, ”Actually, a few days ago, Miss Zhong Li came to me.”

”Zhong Li found you?” Shaochen was utterly confused.

”What did she want you for?”

”Because I... I’m pregnant...”

Shaochen: ”...”

”What’s the connection between your child and Zhong Li?” Shaochen was completely baffled by her way of explaining.

This confusing story was truly frustrating.

Qi Yue quickly shook her head, ”I’m sorry... I’m too nervous... Actually, she wanted me to frame Xiaonuan, and I refused. Then she... she...” Qi Yue poured out the facts in one breath, but upon seeing Shaochen’s expression turn grim, she didn’t dare to continue.

”Are you telling the truth?” He furrowed his handsome brows and asked coldly, ”What does Zhong Li want to do to Xiaonuan?” His hand on the table instinctively clenched into a fist bit by bit.

Qi Yue saw the worried look on Mr. Liang’s face and felt like she had found a protector.

It was clear that Mr. Liang was truly concerned about Xiaonuan. As long as it was like this, she felt relieved. At least, Mr. Liang and Zhong Li were not on the same side, so Xiaonuan wouldn’t be harmed.

”It’s true.” Qi Yue’s eyes reddened as she said this, ”She said... either I tell the Young Master that Xiaonuan’s child is Situ Yan’s, or... my child must disappear...”

Shaochen’s pupils shrank, and he clenched his jaw, ”Nangong Zhongli is going too far. Don’t worry, I won’t let her continue to harm you.”

He pondered for a moment and then said, ”I never thought she could be so ruthless. Does Xiaonuan know about your pregnancy? And how did she threaten you? Did she force you to abort the child?”

”No... that’s not it.”
