Qiao Lian hurriedly took a step backwards to distance herself from Shen Liangchuan.

She widened her spiritual eyes and stared at him, alert. “Mr- Mr. Shen, what do you want to tell me?”

What do I want to tell her?

Shen Liangchuan was vaguely stunned. How could he know what he wanted to tell her? If he hadn’t come up with a reason, they would still be gaming.

But he didn’t show it on his face. All he did was casually sit on the sofa and ask, “Why are you still here?”

Qiao Lian suddenly understood.

He currently hated her, thus he didn’t want to return home. Most likely, he was going to stay here, but today she was also staying over.

Qiao Lian explained, “It’s Mom who insisted I stay.”

“You’re addressing her so dearly!”

Shen Liangchuan’s cold tone made Qiao Lian stand up straight immediately. “M- Madam Xia.”

He still seemed dissatisfied, as he coldly made a sound of disagreement.

At this moment, Qiao Lian was completely unable to guess what he was thinking and could only continue, “Then… I will go back home now? Villa 8 isn’t really far from villa 18 anyway.”

After she finished speaking, she looked at him cautiously.

Shen Liangchuan looked up and spoke with an unfriendly tone, “You want to complain about us not getting along?”

Qiao Lian immediately waved her hands, denying his assumption. “No! I really didn’t!”

“You better not.” He stood up immediately. “Ms. Qiao, please don’t forget your duties.”

Don’t try to get close to Xia Yehua all the time!

All he knew was that he didn’t want to allow the two women to constantly stick together.

After Qiao Lian heard his words, she lowered her head.

She really liked Xia Yehua, but after hearing Shen Liangchuan’s words… He seemed like he didn’t want her to be too close to Xia Yehua.

Was it because he was worried that Xia Yehua would be hurt when they divorced?

She lowered her head sadly, as her spirits had thoroughly lowered.

Shen Liangchuan stared at her, suddenly feeling unhappy.

When she played together with Xia Yehua, she had been so excited and in great spirits. Yet now, when she was with him, she was so sad?

Looking at her unhappy face, he thought that she looked like the cat he had had when he was young. She looked obedient and cute, and he couldn’t bear hurt her.

He furrowed his brow and said, “She is getting old and cannot stay up late. She must sleep before eleven at night.”

Qiao Lian immediately lifted her head up and her eyes suddenly shone.

Did he mean that as long as she guaranteed that Xia Yehua went to bed by eleven, she would be able to play with her?

A smile immediately appeared on her face. “Ok, Mr. Shen!”

Seeing her expression, Shen Liangchuan didn’t speak and went into the washroom to bathe. When he was back, he realized that…

Qiao Lian had heartlessly fallen asleep on the bed.

Shen Liangchuan: …!!

The night was peaceful and quiet as he stared at her sleeping face.

Her beautiful face was glowing.

Her young voice suddenly sounded in his brain. “It would’ve been so good if we could sleep on the same bed.”

Now, they were lying on the same bed.

Shen Liangchuan’s lips curved into a smile.

The next day, when Qiao Lian had woken up, Shen Liangchuan had already left.

When she went down, she saw Xia Yehua waving at her from the dining room. “Xiao Qiao, come and have breakfast!”

Qiao Lian walked over and sat down. They started to chat while eating.

Xia Yehua said, “Xiao Qiao, Liangchuan has only had one relationship, where he got ditched. Thus, his character is cold and aloof, you’ll have to pardon him.”

Her words made Qiao Lian lift her head up in surprise. “Mr. Shen is so outstanding, why would his girlfriend ditch him?”
