Chapter 853: Does This Count as a Reconciliation?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Ever since the surveillance camera incident, the two of them had not interacted in such a natural way as now.

Nian Xiaomu had originally pounced onto Yu Yuehan because she was trying to battle her anger.

However, she could not bear to get off him after she had pounced and taken in a whiff of the familiar smell of his body.

Yu Yuehan seemed to be having the same thoughts as her, as he carried her in a piggyback and walked forward step by step.

It was a very short distance from the restaurant to the car park, but the two of them seemed to have walked for a long, long time…

Someone made a sound and both of them spoke at the same time.

“Nian Xiaomu, would you believe me?”

“Yu Yuehan, would you believe me?”

The two who had spoken in unison were stunned when they heard what the other party had said.

Nian Xiaomu was the first to return to her senses. As she lay on his shoulders, she started to mutter, “All of the evidence is pointing towards me; it is hinting that I was the one who had given birth to Xiao Liuliu in secret three years ago and sent her to you. I don’t remember anything and I cannot prove my innocence now. Do you still believe me?”

She had never dared to ask him this question.

She was afraid of hearing any words or seeing any hint of distrust coming from him.

The words that he had said before the breakup today gave her strength.

She had decided to ask the questions bravely.

However, she never thought that he would ask her the same question.

She was the one who had done evil previously. Why was he asking her if she would be willing to believe in him?

“Silly.” Yu Yuehan replied coolly.

He carried her in a piggyback and walked to the car.

The assistant had already opened the car door in advance to allow them to get into the car.

Nian Xiaomu did not sit in the car. Instead, she stood by the car door and turned around to look at Yu Yuehan, who had just placed her down.

She pouted indignantly.

Yu Yuehan reached out and patted her head. Then, his clear and cool voice rang slowly.

“Do you think that you could leave the Yu Family villa so easily if I suspected you?”

“…”

“I am not afraid that you have got anything to do with what has happened. I am only afraid that I can’t protect you if you stay by my side.” As Yu Yuehan stared at her, a hint of deep love that no one else could understand, enveloped his deep and dark gaze.

Nian Xiaomu was trapped in a trance.

As she stared blankly at him, she suddenly understood the meaning behind his earlier sentence.

He was asking her if she was willing to believe that he would help her to find out the truth. Or rather, he was asking if she was willing to believe that he would also be able to protect …

Suddenly, Nian Xiaomu’s eyes turned red.

She bit her lip aggrievedly and dove into his embrace, just like a child who has suddenly seen her family member after being abandoned by them.

She held back her tears and complained, “Don’t you know how to tell me that you could not bear to see me leave? You simply watched as I moved out and did not tell me to move back home. I really thought that you did not want me anymore…”

As Yu Yuehan hugged her, he thought of the tiny note that was thrown on the floor and spoke in a slightly gloomy voice, “Wait a minute. Nian Xiaomu, there is a limit to playing the blame game too. I did ask you to move back, but you did not agree to it.”

“… Nonsense, when did you ask me to shift back? I did not hear it!” Nian Xiaomu lifted her face from his chest and stared at him with widened eyes.

Yu Yuehan thought of something and frowned. “Weren’t you the one who threw away the tiny note that I placed at the side of the bed?”

Nian Xiaomu replied, “… I accidentally dropped it when I was picking up my cell phone. Afterward, I was in such a hurry to leave and I forgot to pick it up and read it.”

After Nian Xiaomu finished speaking, they stared at each other and remained silent.

A long time later, Nian Xiaomu finally asked in a careful tone, “Does this count as a reconciliation between us?”
