Chapter 1228 - 1248: Do You Still Want Me or Not? 8
He clenched his fists, and a cracking sound came from his knuckles.He watched her, wanting to say something, but ultimately, nothing came out.
He merely turned away indifferently and walked towards the door.
But just as he reached the door, a gust of wind rushed by from behind, and then his body was tightly hugged from behind by a small figure.
His body trembled.
Xia Xiaonuan stood on tiptoe and hugged his shoulders tightly.
He was too tall, making it difficult for her to embrace him, but she didn’t care about anything else and just held him, murmuring, "Nangong Yaoling... have you forgotten what you promised me?
There’s just one thing, I’m asking you to trust me. I truly love you, very, very much... Please don’t leave me, okay?"
Nangong Yaoling furrowed his brows tightly.
Something cool trickled down the curve of his neck, and he listened to the sound of his heart breaking, his inner self also deeply shaken.
This damn little woman.
Always giving him a sweet candy after causing him pain.
She must be sent by God to torment him!
He held his breath slightly, and after a long time, he slowly reached out and grabbed her hand.
He released her hand, turned around, and looked at her.
Xia Xiaonuan’s eyes were rimmed with red, tears covering her cheeks. She somewhat embarrassingly lowered her head.
Nangong Yaoling reached out and cupped her face.
The man’s eyes carried a hint of helpless compromise.
Seeing her face covered with tears, his heart couldn’t help but soften.
"Go rest upstairs. I have matters at the company and came back to retrieve some documents. I’ll be home late today."
He almost said this through gritted teeth.
Upon hearing this, Xia Xiaonuan looked up at him through her blurry vision.
Nangong Yaoling reached out to wipe away the tears on her face, then glanced at her bare feet.
"You’re supposed to be taking care of yourself right now, don’t run around barefoot like this."
He turned and pulled out a pair of pink bear slippers from the shoe cabinet, tossing them roughly at her feet.
These bear slippers were Xiaonuan’s favorite.
Xia Xiaonuan saw this, her lips softened with an almost imperceptible smile, and she quickly put on the slippers without delay.
Nangong Yaoling glanced at her, his face expressionless, and turned to leave.
After Xia Xiaonuan put on the shoes, he had already opened the door and was walking out.
"You... remember to eat dinner!" she called out to him.
Of course, the only response she got was the heavy sound of the door closing.
Xia Xiaonuan: "..."
Lowering her head, looking at the slippers on her feet, her lips couldn’t help but curl slightly.
He still... cares about her, right.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t be concerned about whether she’s unwell or catching a cold.
At this time, a servant came forward and said, "Young Madam, dinner is ready... please have some."
Xia Xiaonuan nodded, "Alright..."
Outside the villa.
In a silver Ferrari sports car, Nangong Yaoling gripped the steering wheel, his gaze fixed on the window of the villa.
Closing his eyes slightly, Xia Xiaonuan’s words just now echoed in his mind.
"There’s just one thing, please trust me, I truly love you, very, very much... Please don’t leave me, okay?"
Thinking about her words, his heart still trembled.
Although... he knew she deceived him, knew she was pregnant with Situ Yan’s child. Yet, he never thought of leaving her.
So, when she asked if he still wanted her, his heart was also shaken.
He also wanted to give up, wanted to harden his heart and walk away for good.
