Chapter 1478: Chapter 1495: Nangong Yaoling Erupts in Fury

He lowered his head and kissed her forehead: "Xiaonuan, my mom, her personality is quite straightforward. If she said anything she shouldn’t have, or did something, I hope you don’t take it to heart... I also don’t want to leave you alone at home, but... in that situation, I didn’t have a choice..."

"I’m fine..." Xiaonuan rubbed her forehead against his shoulder.

She reached out, wrapping her arms around his waist: "I’m a bit tired." She said, closing her eyes, pretending to sleep.

Nangong Yaoling had no choice but to say, "Alright."

He pressed her head towards him again.

After some time, the car slowly drove into the villa.

Xiaonuan kept her eyes closed, but she never actually fell asleep.

Her mind was a mess, completely at a loss about what to do inside.

In her mind, Nangong Jinlie’s final words echoed repeatedly.

Only three days to make a decision.

Otherwise...

She didn’t dare to think further.

The car stopped, and a guard immediately approached, opening the car door.

Xiaonuan followed Nangong Yaoling out of the car, and they walked towards the villa together.

As soon as they entered, a servant came forward.

"Young master, the dinner you just called for has been prepared. Would you and young madam like to eat now?"

Xia Xiaonuan paused for a moment.

It turned out that Nangong Yaoling had noticed she didn’t eat well at dinner, so he specially asked for more dishes to be made.

"Xiaonuan, you didn’t eat much tonight. I asked the kitchen to make many dishes you love, could you eat a little?" Nangong Yaoling looked at her and said.

Xiaonuan felt a surge of emotion, yet it made her even more upset.

Her throat felt tight; she really didn’t want to disappoint Nangong Yaoling, but she knew, under these circumstances, she really couldn’t eat anything.

"Thank you, but... I want to rest first." She looked at him and said.

Nangong Yaoling was somewhat helpless, gently patting her head: "Alright, then let the kitchen keep it warm. You can eat whenever you feel hungry."

"Okay..."

The two of them walked upstairs.

As soon as Xiaonuan entered the bedroom, she lay down on the bed.

Nangong Yaoling took off his coat, hung it on the rack, turned around, and looked at Xiaonuan on the bed, frowning slightly, a complex look passing through his eyes.

He loosened his tie and went to sit by the bed.

"Xiaonuan, what’s wrong with you today?" he reached out, holding her shoulder, and asked worriedly.

From the moment they got back, he sensed something was off with Xiaonuan.

Even though she smiled at him, he still felt that she wasn’t happy inside.

Perhaps, with someone you deeply love, you can feel it.

That’s why he apologized to her; all the way back, he practically had the driver speed back. He was worried Xiaonuan was upset at the old residence.

Xiaonuan didn’t speak, just shook her head.

She was afraid once she opened her mouth, her throat would become hoarse, afraid once she spoke, tears would fall.

"Was it Grandpa giving you a hard time? Or was it my mom? Xiaonuan, look at me, tell me." Nangong Yaoling pulled her up into his arms, lifting her face with one hand.

Xiaonuan had no choice but to face him directly.

And at that moment, suddenly, staring at her face, Nangong Yaoling’s expression changed drastically.

He seemed to have noticed something, reaching out, turning her face to the side.

"Xiaonuan, what happened to your face?" he asked, shocked and furious.

Xiaonuan quickly reached out, covering her cheek, not letting him see.

Nangong Yaoling, however, resolutely pulled away her hand, and under the light, he noticed that her previously fair face was now swollen and red.
