She tilted her head and saw that the palm print on her cheek was very obvious. It was swelling up at a speed visible to the naked eye. Reaching out to touch it, she couldn't help but let out a hiss.
It was really painful.
Qiao Lian's expression darkened at once.
Ever since she was young, she had eaten everything, but she had never suffered a loss.
When Shen Liangchuan bullied her, she couldn't retaliate. She had to endure it.
But Yang Lingsi was nothing!
Revenge is a dish best served cold. She was not a gentleman, so she would take her revenge tomorrow.
Yang Lingsi, just you wait!
Since her face was injured, she did not go to the news agency. Instead, she hailed a cab and returned to the Shen family villa.
She lowered her head and covered her face with her hands. After entering, she casually greeted the butler and went upstairs to the master bedroom.
She wrapped the ice cube in a towel and applied it to her face. Exhausted, she collapsed on the sofa.
As she stared at the unfamiliar ceiling, her manager's words flashed across her mind. "… When Mr. Shen suddenly told me to prepare the agreement and look for you, I thought you knew each other!"
She racked her brain to recall and was sure that she had never met him before.
But from the first time they met, he didn't like her. So why did he choose her to bear the child?
Could it be … because she was born beautiful and her genes were too good?
Qiao Lian entertained herself. If an optimistic person could not figure it out, she might as well stop thinking about it.
Anyway, after she gave birth, she would divorce Shen Liangchuan. When that time came, she would have nothing to worry about. It would be even better.
"Knock knock!" Someone knocked on the door.
Qiao Lian jumped in fright and quickly sat up. "Who is it?"
"Madam, it's me," the housekeeper said. "Sir asked me to bring you milk."
Milk delivery?
Qiao Lian did not want anyone to see the wound on her face, so she coughed and said, "Ah, it's okay, I'm not hungry at all today!"
However, as soon as he said this, his stomach growled.
Qiao Lian: …
She drank a glass of milk in the morning and waited outside the set at noon. She didn't even have time to eat lunch. It would be strange if she wasn't hungry …
Qiao Lian gulped and thought for a moment. Then she turned her injured face towards the inside of the room and said, "Come in!"
The butler pushed the door open and entered. He looked straight ahead as he walked up to Qiao Lian and handed her the milk.
Qiao Lian took it and took a sip. She frowned immediately. She had left in a hurry in the morning and hadn't noticed it, but now she realized that the milk tasted a little weird.
But when she remembered that it was Shen Liangchuan who had asked the butler to bring it in, she decided to just drink it.
Under the watchful eyes of the housekeeper, she pinched her nose, drank the milk in one gulp, and said against her will, "Thank you."
The housekeeper took the cup and turned to leave. When she closed the door, she looked inside and saw that Madam was lying on the sofa again.
A pensive look flashed across her eyes.
Was that a palm print on Madam's face?
She went downstairs and, after some thought, picked up the landline and dialed a number. The call went through and Shen Liangchuan's voice could be heard from the other end, "Did you drink?"
"I drank it." Just as Shen Liangchuan was about to hang up, he suddenly said, "Sir, are you coming home tonight? Madam … doesn't seem too good. "
Shen Liangchuan's expression darkened as he hung up.
It's not good?
He stood up and walked out. His agent asked, "Where are you going?"
"Go home."
