The chief ex-husband won't let go of Yi Xiaobao

Upon hearing the mention of Mu Ya'an, Gong Juncheng's face immediately darkened, turning ashen as if ink had been spilled on it.

Sheng Xia raised an eyebrow, glanced at Gong Juncheng's changing expression, a faint smile appeared on her lips, and her eyes held a hint of mockery as she spoke coldly.

"If you can't even control your emotions when you hear her name, how can you say you have no feelings for her?"

"Juncheng, the hardest thing for a person to face in this life is their own heart. Sometimes, knowing what you want and getting it can completely change your life."

This is how I've lived all these years, through the height of summer.

She knows her goals and what she wants most.

Although she and Lin Hao might not be able to be together due to many problems, Sheng Xia is not afraid to face her own heart.

She simply loves Lin Hao; she loves him very much.

Gong Juncheng frowned slightly upon hearing Sheng Xia's words, his eyes showing a hint of disdain.

"Hearing that woman's name makes me feel a change of mood, but that's just because I really hate that woman, and there's nothing wrong with that."

Sheng Xia raised an eyebrow slightly upon hearing Gong Juncheng's words, but did not continue speaking. Instead, she glanced at Gong Juncheng indifferently and then looked away.

They returned to their parking spot via a side road. The reporters had mostly dispersed, and some investigators were collecting evidence and cleaning up the scene.

Sheng Xia glanced at them indifferently, then quickly looked away and got into the car.

Their car had just started moving when a sports car sped past them.

Upon closer inspection, Sheng Xia realized it was Nie Jingchen's car.

During this period, Gu Moxuan and Gong Juncheng completely disregarded Nie Jingchen in their plans.

Because Nie Jingchen's feelings for Zhao Xiang are different, and she was worried that Nie Jingchen would not be able to accept certain facts, she went to Zhao Sheng to question him, which led to the leak of information.

Now that Zhao Sheng is in trouble, Nie Jingchen will definitely come to Sixiang Garden to inquire about the reason.

Sheng Xia glanced deeply at Nie Jingchen's car and shook her head slightly.

In fact, on the day Shen Huai and Lin Xiaoruo got engaged, Nie Jingchen was so attentive to the imposter Zhao Xiang that Zhao Xiang must have seen it too.

Ultimately, they were destined to be together but not to stay together.

Gong Juncheng frowned slightly when he saw Nie Jingchen's car, and took out his phone to call Nie Jingchen.

He had just taken out his phone when Sheng Xia, who was beside him, stopped him.

"It's just Nie Jingchen; Qingran knows how to handle it."

Gong Juncheng raised an eyebrow slightly upon hearing Sheng Xia's words.

Sheng Xia didn't say anything more, but sat in the passenger seat and closed her eyes to rest.

The situation they are about to face is far more important than the situation they are facing now.

Nie Jingchen rushed all the way to Sixiang Garden. The reporters who hadn't completely left saw Nie Jingchen's car speeding away and immediately got in and followed.

At times like these, we usually catch some big news stories.

They immediately followed in their car, but when they arrived at the entrance of Sixiangyuan, they found that the gate was tightly closed.

The sound of Nie Jingchen braking could be heard from inside Sixiang Garden.

Gu Moxuan was sitting on the sofa, playing with Lin Jinjin, when he heard the sound of brakes and his expression changed.

There are only a handful of people who come to him without needing to report.

When Nie Jingchen got out of the car, Gu Moxuan glanced at the courtyard in the direction of Nie Jingchen with extreme displeasure.

Seeing Nie Jingchen hurrying over, Lin Qingran glanced at Aunt Wang and said softly.

"Aunt Wang, could you please take Jinjin upstairs to play? We might have something to discuss here."

Upon hearing Lin Qingran's instructions, Aunt Wang immediately nodded, took Lin Jinjin from Lin Qingran's side, and walked upstairs.

At the same time, Nie Jingchen strode over to Gu Moxuan's side.

"Third Brother, what exactly are you planning? Why won't you tell me anything?"

"What exactly happened to Xiang'er?"

Gu Moxuan glanced at Nie Jingchen, his expression calm but with a hint of sternness in his eyes, and said in a deep voice.

"Given your current attitude towards doing things, do you think you'd believe anything we said to you?"

Nie Jingchen was taken aback upon hearing this.

He still doesn't fully know what exactly happened on the Zhao family's side.

During this time, he had been trying to make Zhao Xiang happy, although he was often turned away by the Zhao family.

However, upon hearing the news of Zhao Xiang's accident, Nie Jingchen immediately rushed to the hospital.

Unexpectedly, he was the last person to know that "Zhao Xiang" had gotten into trouble.

Before him, everyone had visited "Zhao Xiang" at the hospital.

He got some information from Old Master Zhao, but it was only very partial information.

The person named "Zhao Xiang" was actually Zhao Sheng, not Zhao Xiang. This alone was enough to confuse him.

Because Old Master Zhao harbored resentment towards Nie Jingchen for running away from the wedding, he refused to share too much information with Nie Jingchen.

Zhao Sheng remained silent, not uttering a single word.

Nie Jingchen had no choice but to come here.

During this time, Gu Moxuan did not answer his calls, and Lin Qingran's phone was also constantly busy.

He learned from others that Gu Moxuan had also encountered some trouble.

It seemed that everyone around them knew everything, except for him, who was being kept in the dark.

Where did Xiang'er go?

Up to this point, Nie Jingchen only had this one thought in his mind.

If the one from the Zhao family isn't Zhao Xiang, then where did the real Zhao Xiang go?

Lin Qingran looked at Nie Jingchen's excited expression, her face calm and her eyes cold and composed.

"Didn't Mr. Nie say that no matter what Xiang'er becomes, you will still love her?"

"Actually, in your heart, between Xiang'er and Sheng'er, your first feeling is that you would prefer someone like Sheng'er."

“You made your choice from the beginning, so why are you asking about Xiang’er’s whereabouts now? Xiang’er hasn’t appeared during this time.”

Nie Jingchen listened to Lin Qingran's words with a look of surprise on his face. He shook his head violently, somewhat unwilling to believe the fact.

"That's impossible. Xiang'er couldn't have never been absent. She..."

Seeing Nie Jingchen's disbelief, Lin Qingran pursed her red lips and calmly said.

"Mr. Nie is unwilling to believe these things now simply because you have always felt that the person in your heart is Xiang'er, so you refuse to believe it."

“But you still made the most honest choice. If you really liked Xiang’er, you couldn’t possibly not have realized that Xiang’er and Zhao Sheng were not the same person.”

"You've always liked gentle and kind women with long, flowing hair, but Xiang'er will never be that type of person in this lifetime. You should know that."

Gu Moxuan's eyes grew heavy as he listened to Lin Qingran calmly recount what Nie Jingchen had been avoiding all along.

Nie Jingchen shook his head, still refusing to believe it.

"No, she and Xiang'er have the exact same face. I just didn't tell them apart at the time."

Lin Qingran looked at Nie Jingchen, chuckled softly, and said in a low voice.

“Mr. Nie, even if you admit that your type isn’t Xiang’er’s, it’s nothing. All these years, you’ve been pretending to be affectionate just because Xiang’er hasn’t appeared in front of you since then.”

"You feel guilty, even a little regretful. You can't believe that Xiang'er could forget you so completely."

"So when someone with the face you care about and the type you like appears, your true feelings are still fully revealed."

Lin Qingran's words struck Nie Jingchen's heart like a heavy hammer blow.

Nie Jingchen frowned, and his expression became distressed.

He gradually fell silent, reflecting on his actions over the past few days. Finally, he chuckled softly, a smile full of mockery.

"So, all this time, I've been misjudging my feelings, right?"

Lin Qingran remained remarkably calm in the face of Nie Jingchen's current situation.

Perhaps even now, Nie Jingchen doesn't know what kind of feelings he has for Zhao Xiang.

Seeing the confusion in his eyes, Lin Qingran fell silent. She glanced at Gu Moxuan, then walked upstairs, leaving Gu Moxuan and Nie Jingchen to their own devices.
