Chapter 732: That Matter Eight Years Ago (1)

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Because today was not a visiting day, the security entrance was closed to prevent visitors.

Mei Feng made a call and then a person walked out—not only to welcome her, but they even let the car in.

This treatment…

But did Mei Feng have a relative staying in the rehab home?

Qiao Lian did not think too much about it at this point.

She simply called Xia Nuannuan.

New Year was just around the corner and Xia Yehua had almost recovered. Hence, Xia Nuanuan was also back to work.

After waiting five minutes, Xia Nuannuan walked out of the rehab home.

The white down jacket matched her increasingly gentle demeanor. When people looked into her expressive and lively eyes, they warmed immediately to her.

No matter the situation, Xia Nuannuan would always give people the impression that she was a girl from a Jiangnan waterways town.

Her eyes lit up when she saw Qiao Lian. She approached her and asked, “You’re back from Suzhou?”

Qiao Lian nodded.

Xia Nuannuan immediately gave a smile that made the skin around her eyes crinkle. She continued, “Aunt Xia was nagging just two days ago, thinking that you both wouldn’t be back for the New Year.”

Qiao Lian teased the girl, “Are you still calling her Aunt Xia? Shouldn’t you change the form of address now?”

Xia Nuannuan blushed and said, “But we haven’t had the wedding ceremony.”

“You can still change it, since you’ve already registered your marriage.”

Qiao Lian lowered her gaze and looked at Xia Nuannuan’s abdomen.

Because she was no more than two months pregnant and, furthermore, was wearing a thick down jacket, one couldn’t tell she was with child.

Still, Qiao Lian reached out to touch the girl’s belly. “Has the baby been behaving?”

Xia Nuannuan laughed. “You seem to like babies. Why don’t you and Best Actor Shen have one too?”

At these words, Qiao Lian paused and her hand froze on Xia Nuannuan’s belly.

Pursing her lips, she straightened up and replied, “We’re still young, but don’t worry, I won’t take too long after you.”

As they chatted and walked, they arrived at the rehab home compound.

These days the relationship between Xia Nuannuan and Xia Yehua had deepened, hence, the girl had also come to understand Song Yuanxi’s relationship with the family.

She understood as well why Qiao Lian had come to visit Song Yuanxi without Xia Yehua’s knowledge.

Qiao Lian inquired, “How has her condition been lately?”

Xia Nuannuan offered her opinion, “Actually, I do think that her emotions have stabilized and her condition has eased up. After all, it was triggered by a specific instance. But every time Aunt Xia comes to visit, she doesn’t speak much so we don’t really know if she’s well.”

She sighed and continued, “Normally Ms. Song is quite calm and doesn’t seem to have any issues with staying here. But I do feel that she’s not really sick. Rather, she seems…”

Qiao Lian looked at her and asked, “She seems…?”

“She seems to be in self-exile.” Xia Nuannuan lowered her voice and continued, “I studied psychology. This situation looks like she hasn’t been able to let go of the fact that she harmed Best Actor Shen. Now she’s confined herself here, as though she sentenced herself to jail. Most days, she doesn’t even step out and sits by herself in the room.”

She furrowed her brow. “If a normal person isolates herself for an extended period and ceases to interact with the outside world, she can develop autism.”

Qiao Lian frowned and took a few steps forward after hearing what she had said. Suddenly, she saw Mei Feng’s car. It had stopped next to the apartment building where Xia Nuannuan stayed.

Then, the woman got out of the car and walked towards Song Yuanxi’s room.
