Chapter 849: Chapter 849: The Scarf Around the Neck Chapter 849: Chapter 849: The Scarf Around the Neck That was the darkest, most painful, and lowest point of her life…

Every time she dreamed of such scenes, she would wake up from the nightmare!

Qiao Ning abruptly awoke, fear still lingering in her eyes.

“What’s wrong, had a nightmare?” Chai Xiyang, who was reading documents by the bed, asked with concern.

The moment Qiao Ning slightly lifted her eyes she saw him, handsome and deep-featured under the soft light, his eyes tenderly glowing.

She was lying in their bedroom, which was luxuriously and cozily furnished.

Everything was beautiful…

So the nightmare was over, and everything had passed.

Qiao Ning breathed a sigh of relief and felt an immense sense of gratitude. When she was sentenced back then, she really thought her life was over.

Thank goodness, everything was over, and she had gained even greater happiness.

With many emotions, Qiao Ning embraced Chai Xiyang’s body, very docilely.

“What’s the matter? What kind of nightmare did you have?” Chai Xiyang gently stroked her head, his voice magnetically asking.

Qiao Ning shook her head, “I’ve forgotten…”

“Do you still want to rest?” Chai Xiyang suddenly asked again.

Qiao Ning suddenly realized, and she sat up quickly, asking anxiously, “What time is it now? Weren’t we supposed to have dinner together?”

Chai Xiyang laughed, “No rush, we still have more than half an hour…”

“Not in a hurry! Why didn’t you wake me up earlier? Hurry, we’re going to be late.” Qiao Ning patted him, then hurriedly got out of bed to wash up.

Chai Xiyang smiled. He knew they were going to be late, but seeing her sleep so soundly, he didn’t have the heart to wake her.

However, they were indeed going to be late!

The two of them got ready at the fastest speed and immediately left the house. Qiao Ning, who was afraid of being late, asked the driver to drive faster, and Chai Xiyang wrapped his arms around her, saying, “Don’t worry, we’ll make it.”

“How can I not worry? Today we are hosting, it would be bad if we are late.” Qiao Ning said with concern.

“I’ve told them not to come early, so we will definitely make it on time.”

Qiao Ning breathed a sigh of relief, that was more like it.

However, when they arrived at the restaurant, they ran into Hai Xiaotang and Dongfang Yu just as they too had arrived.

They had just come.

Qiao Ning felt so relieved inside, thank goodness they weren’t late, even a minute’s delay would have made her feel sorry.

Hai Xiaotang, surprised to see them, laughed and said, “What a coincidence, how come you’ve only just arrived?”

“It’s pointless to come early.” Chai Xiyang responded with a smile.

Qiao Ning went over and took Hai Xiaotang’s hand, changing the subject, “Xiaotang, let’s go in. I wonder if Wen Brother and Hai Lan Sister have arrived.”

“They probably haven’t arrived yet…” Just as Hai Xiaotang finished speaking, she noticed marks on Qiao Ning’s neck.

Marks that clearly weren’t there during the day.

She seemed to understand something and said teasingly, “No wonder you’ve only just arrived! Qiao Ning, this is for you.”

“What?” Qiao Ning asked, puzzled, just in time to see Hai Xiaotang take off the scarf around her neck and tie it around hers.

She was stunned for a moment, still foolishly not understanding, “Xiaotang, why are you giving me this?”

“To save you from Hai Lan’s teasing.” Hai Xiaotang laughed and then quickly left with Dongfang Yu.

Qiao Ning immediately understood her meaning, and her face turned red in an instant!

Chai Xiyang even came over to help adjust it, saying, “Don’t worry, it’s not visible now.”

“It’s all your fault…” Qiao Ning stomped her foot in embarrassment and then quickly entered the restaurant without him.
