The Young Master's Escaping Bride Who Lost Memories

Chapter 1231 - 1251: It’s All My Fault

Then, he glanced at the servant beside him.Xia Xiaonuan quickly said, "Go on, all of you, get busy."

The servant nodded and tactfully withdrew.

After a while, Qin Yi finally spoke, "Young Mistress... there’s something that’s been bothering me for days... I... I..." Halfway through, Qin Yi folded his hands, focusing his gaze on the cup of water in front of him, seeming a bit nervous, wanting to speak but stopping.

Xia Xiaonuan was a bit stunned.

No matter what happened, Qin Yi had always remained calm and composed. She had rarely seen him this nervous; the only time she’d seen him so flustered was when he had an incident with Nangong Zhongli at the hotel and came to her for help.

Thinking of this, Xia Xiaonuan slightly pursed her lips and couldn’t help but smile, "If I’m not mistaken, you want to ask about the child, right?"

Qin Yi seemed a bit surprised to look at Xia Xiaonuan, but soon, his cheeks flushed slightly, he straightened his back, and nervously said, "I’m sorry, Young Mistress... I didn’t mean to doubt you... I know you’re a good person. I trust you wouldn’t hurt Zhong Li. I’m just... just... wanting to know the truth."

Xia Xiaonuan looked at him, recalling the incident with Zhong Li, and couldn’t help but sigh softly.

"Actually, even if you hadn’t come looking for me, I was planning on finding you in the next few days."

Qin Yi looked at her intently.

"That time..." Xia Xiaonuan thought for a moment and told Qin Yi everything that happened that day.

After speaking, she apologized somewhat, "Although I didn’t mean to hurt her, this matter indeed had something to do with me. I didn’t expect things would turn out this way... I’m sorry..."

Qin Yi shook slightly when he heard Xiaonuan say that Nangong Zhongli fell from the stairs.

He slightly clenched his hands on his lap.

"So that’s how it is..."

He looked at Xia Xiaonuan and shook his head, "Young Mistress... you’ve done your best. It’s Zhong Li who’s too stubborn. This can’t be blamed on you."

That day, Zhong Li saw her with Shaochen, became too emotional, and behind her were the stairs. By the time she reacted and tried to pull her back, it was too late.

So she could only watch as she fell from the stairs.

"Actually, regarding this incident, I’ve also felt guilty for quite a while. Especially considering Zhong Li’s health condition, even when she did some wrong things, although I was angry, thinking about it, I also felt she was rather pitiful."

Qin Yi nodded.

His look at Xia Xiaonuan was somewhat complicated.

But in the next second, he suddenly stood up and took a step back.

Xia Xiaonuan was startled.

She saw Qin Yi suddenly drop to his knees in front of her with a "thud."

Xia Xiaonuan’s eyes widened.

She quickly stood up and said, "What are you doing? Get up now!"

"Young Mistress, actually, today I’m not only here to ask for an answer but also for another matter—I hope you can agree to it."

Xia Xiaonuan frowned, "What’s the matter? Stand up and speak!"

"No..." Qin Yi shook his head and said, "Young Mistress, Miss Zhong Li made a lot of mistakes, yet you continue to tolerate her. I know you’re a good person. Although Zhong Li is quite crazy, she does everything because of love. She loves Shaochen too much, that’s why she acts like this... therefore, I beg you not to hold it against her.

Zhong Li lost her father when she was young, and her mother wasn’t good to her. Later, she remarried;
