Chapter 231 - He Was That Teenager That Saved Her That Year? (2) (2/2)

Xia Xi pa.s.sed Nan Zhi’s bag to her and Nan Zhi scrambled around inside frantically, before she finally took out her lucky b.u.t.ton from the inner pocket.

The smiley face was still there.

Why would Mu Sihan have a b.u.t.ton that was exactly the same as hers?

Countless memories flashed past in Nan Zhi’s mind.

‘Are you a pig? You’re a stupid and ugly pig!’

‘Why are you so heavy? Can’t you just eat less?’

That big brother had piggybacked her after he saved her from the kidnappers. She had a high fever and heard him scolding her in her fever-induced daze.

Now that she thought about it, those words did not seem like they would come from brother Gu Sheng.

It felt more like that overbearing man…

No…

Nan Zhi wrapped her arms around her head. Her temple was jumping as she felt a p.r.i.c.kling pain in her temple that stabbed at her like needles.

“Sister Zhi, what’s wrong?” Xia Xi asked worriedly as she stared at Nan Zhi’s pale face.

The scene in Nan Zhi’s mind changed again to when she had placed the lucky b.u.t.ton in front of brother Gu Sheng in the western restaurant.

‘Why did you give me a b.u.t.ton?’

At first, she had thought that brother Gu Sheng could not remember his b.u.t.ton after nine years, as it had already been a long time. She never thought about a possibility that the b.u.t.ton did not even belong to him.

Because he was the one next to her when she had woken up.

Nan Zhi felt like she had run headfirst into a brick wall. Her body swayed unsteadily and Xia Xi was quick to support her before she collapsed to the ground. Seeing Nan Zhi’s unresponsive state, Xià Xi was panicking. She did not know what happened to Nan Zhi. Her face was actually as pale as a sheet of paper!

“Sister Zhi, are you alright? Answer me! Don’t scare me!”

Nan Zhi’s lips moved wordlessly, feeling dry and hoa.r.s.e as she stared at Xia Xi blankly. “Xiao Xi, what do I do? I might have mistaken another person as my life savior…”

Xia Xi did not understand. She was about to clarify, when Nan Zhi suddenly pushed her away and ran outside.

In Xia Xi’s mind, Nan Zhi was always calm and intelligent in any situation. She was one of the brightest among the young females of the new generation. She had never seen her be so distraught and bewildered.

Xia Xi rushed after her in a hurry, worried that something might have happened.

After bursting out of the room, Nan Zhi ran to the big room that Mu Sihan had occupied.

It was empty except for several of her female colleagues unpacking their luggage.

Nan Zhi’s throat was a little tight as she asked hoa.r.s.ely, “Where is Young Master Mu?”
