Xia Xiaonuan looked at Nangong Jinlie, who was also looking at her, seemingly trying to see through her.
But Xiaonuan showed no fear, as though she carried a sense of determination.
Originally, she thought Nangong Jinlie would take the opportunity to ask her about her and Shaochen, and whether she was really Xia Xiaonuan.
But unexpectedly, he did not ask.
"Xiaonuan, what you said, is it true? If you knew that necklace was given by Shaochen, what would you do?"
"I would return the necklace to him."
Nangong Jinlie nodded.
"Good, I believe you."
Xia Xiaonuan raised her eyes, somewhat surprised, looking at Nangong Jinlie.
She hadn't expected his answer to be so straightforward, hadn't expected him to be willing to believe her.
After all, there was already a hint of doubt in his gaze before.
But Xiaonuan felt neither relieved nor touched, only puzzled.
Perhaps in her heart, she no longer dared to believe the man before her, who seemed calm but was truly deeply scheming!
