The Young Master's Escaping Bride Who Lost Memories

Chapter 1413: Chapter 1430: I’ll Cling to You for a Lifetime

Qin Yi dashed to the window, along with Nangong Yaoling...

Xia Xiaonuan shuddered all over, only feeling that a figure flashed before her eyes, and then, hearing a loud noise from downstairs, she understood what happened and felt her mind buzz.

Her vision went black, and she staggered before collapsing.

Collapsed into someone’s embrace.

A faint mint scent wafted over, and she seemed to faintly hear Liang Shaochen calling her name.

But she could no longer see the face above her.

Then she heard the butler exclaim loudly.

”Sir! Sir...!”

Followed by a rush of chaotic footsteps, her heart sank, and this time, she completely fainted.

That day, Xia Xiaonuan had a very, very long dream.

In the dream, she and Nan Mo returned to their childhood, Nan Mo holding her hand as they went to pick fruit in the orchard behind the orphanage. At that time, it was just dawn, and there seemed to still be a damp mist in the air. Nan Mo, who always seemed outwardly quiet and introverted, stepped on a wooden chair and climbed up an apricot tree to pick apricots for her.

The apricots were not fully ripe then; he picked a few that were slightly red, wrapped them in his handkerchief, and then climbed down the tree with difficulty.

Then, like presenting a treasure, he spread the handkerchief in front of her, and the two ran excitedly to the swing, swinging while eating the fruit.

The apricots were so sour, biting into them was hard, but Xiaonuan ate happily.

”Nan Mo, will you always pick apricots for me?”

”Of course, as long as you want, I’m willing to pick them for you forever.”

”But your hands are all scratched, doesn’t it hurt?”

Nan Mo, a bit embarrassed, hid his scratched hand behind his body, smiling, ”It doesn’t hurt at all, for Qiqi, it really doesn’t hurt.”

Xiaonuan couldn’t help but feel a surge of emotion.

She was about to say something when suddenly the dean rushed over.

The dean rushed up and snatched the still-green apricot from her hand, threw it into the grass, and then pulled Nan Mo away. Soon after, she saw the dean’s figure change into an elder with a stern and cold expression.

This person was Nangong Jinlie.

And Nan Mo was not Nan Mo at all, he was Nangong Yaoling.

Xiaonuan was pulled away, and she reached out to grab Nangong Yaoling’s hand.

Nangong Yaoling, however, just allowed himself to be pulled away expressionlessly. She cried out, but Nangong Yaoling only looked at her with sadness until she was pulled away.

”Xiaonuan, you deceiver! You are not my wife at all, you are a fake, why did you lie to me? You caused Zhong Li’s death... You hurt those around me, and the one you love has never been me!”

”No... I didn’t, I didn’t!” Xiaonuan screamed.

But Nangong Yaoling had already turned away coldly.

Xiaonuan was pushed down into the grass, and she suddenly opened her eyes.

Already drenched in cold sweat.

She grasped the edge of the blanket, staring wide-eyed at the ceiling.

At that moment, rapid footsteps approached, and a familiar face came into view.

”Xiaonuan, you’re awake?” the man asked with a hoarse voice, tinged with joy.

Xiaonuan propped herself up and tightly embraced Nangong Yaoling’s neck.

”Nangong Yaoling, don’t ever leave me... Never leave me, okay?”

Nangong Yaoling felt a pang in his heart.

He reached out, holding the small body tightly in his arms.

”Silly, I’ll never leave you, as long as you don’t leave me, I will cling to you for a lifetime.”
