The Young Master's Escaping Bride Who Lost Memories

Chapter 1402: Chapter 1419: Nangong Zhongli’s Confession 5

Xia Xiaonuan heard Nangong Jinlie say this, and was initially taken aback.

But in the next second, she suddenly let out a cold laugh.

Her laughter made Nangong Jinlie’s face become extremely unpleasant once more.

The housekeeper, who had been by the master’s side for many years, couldn’t stand it anymore and spoke up: ”Young Mistress, you shouldn’t talk to the master like that!”

Only then did Xia Xiaonuan restrain her laughter.

However, she couldn’t help it; thinking about those things, she laughed again, this time with bitterness and a hint of pain.

She told Nangong Jinlie she didn’t know that the necklace was given by Shaochen. Because the necklace given to her by Nangong Yaoling had fallen behind the cabinet.

When she saw the necklace in her clothes and received a message from Nangong Yaoling, she naturally associated it with what Nangong Yaoling had gifted.

So, she kept wearing it and said that it was a necklace given by Nangong Yaoling.

After listening to Xiaonuan’s explanation, Nangong Jinlie slightly furrowed his brows, still observing Xia Xiaonuan.

At this moment, Nangong Zhongli shouted: ”No, Grandpa! She’s lying! She absolutely knows; she’s just clearing herself!”

Nangong Jinlie’s brows furrowed deeply, and he shot a cold glance at Nangong Zhongli.

Nangong Zhongli, originally wanting to say more, had to lower his head when met with such a gaze.

Nangong Jinlie looked at Xia Xiaonuan’s calm expression, remained silent for a moment, seemingly pondering the truth in her words.

Meanwhile, Nangong Yaoling’s people were searching everywhere for Xia Xiaonuan.

He personally went to the supermarket, directly to the surveillance room.

The staff nearby were sweating profusely as they adjusted the surveillance, Nangong Yaoling was accompanied by Qin Yi, equally uneasy and anxious.

Nangong Yaoling saw in the surveillance that Xiaonuan met with Housekeeper Li, they chatted briefly, then Xiaonuan set the car aside, picked up the groceries from the car, and later left through the back door with the housekeeper.

Seeing this, a hint of relief appeared on Nangong Yaoling’s handsome face.

Qin Yi couldn’t help but say, ”Young Master, is the master back?”

Nangong Yaoling furrowed his brows, then dialed the master’s phone.

The result was the same, unable to connect!

It was obvious that where they were had the signal blocked.

Nangong Yaoling furrowed his brows even tighter.

”He must be back. But... why would he take Xiaonuan away?” Nangong Yaoling muttered to himself, then instructed Qin Yi to dial Nangong Zhongli’s phone.

”Young Master, still can’t connect.” Qin Yi’s forehead had started to sweat coldly.

He now hardly knew what he was panicking about, yet he couldn’t help but feel uneasy.

At this point, the staff began investigating the car’s license plate that Xiaonuan got into.

Qin Yi quickly said, ”Young Master, if we continue investigating like this, I’m afraid it won’t be possible without a few hours... I’m worried about Young Mistress...”

Nangong Yaoling coldly glanced at Qin Yi.

”I’m afraid what you’re worried about isn’t her, right?”

Qin Yi heard this and couldn’t help but lower his head.

Just then, Nangong Yaoling’s phone rang.

Liang Shaochen sat in the car, rubbing his aching head, and spoke once the call was connected: ”Young Master, it’s me... Is Zhongli with you?”

Nangong Yaoling’s brow twitched.

”No, Xiaonuan is missing.” Nangong Yaoling said in a deep voice, suppressing some anger in his tone.

Upon hearing this, Liang Shaochen’s expression slightly changed.

After a moment of contemplation, he spoke: ”I think I know where they are!”

Nangong Yaoling’s eyes lit up.
