As Shen Liangchuan was showering, he suddenly remembered that Song Cheng had asked him for an urgent document. 13579246810
Hence, he did not wash as meticulously as he usually did. After a quick shower, he wrapped himself in a towel and walked out of the room. Without thinking twice, he pushed open the study door and was shocked to see the girl. She snapped out of her daze and stared at him in horror and astonishment.
He narrowed his eyes and asked casually, "What are you doing?"
As he said this, he strode towards the door and saw her push open the painting in his safe.
He looked at her with a puzzled expression, unable to figure out her intentions.
Qiao Lian bit her lip, her heart thumping wildly. She felt that this was the most exciting experience she had had in a while.
She had entered his study to steal something, but he had caught her red-handed. Was there anything more tragic than this?
She grimaced and the expression on her face became unnatural. She tried to appear honest and put the painting back where it had been. Her eyes darted around guiltily, but she refused to look at him. She said, "I- I came to ask you to have dinner, but I didn't expect you to be in the study."
She turned to look at the furnishings in the study and changed the topic. "Your study is well decorated."
She pointed at the painting and said, "I thought this painting was a little strange, so I came over to take a look. I didn't expect it to be a safe."
Shen Liangchuan did not comment on her words. He turned around and walked towards his desk. As he picked up the phone, he said, "Do you know that you have a habit?"
"What?"
"When you lie, you don't dare to look into other people's eyes."
Qiao Lian panicked. She knew that the excuse she had used just now was not going to work on Shen Liangchuan.
She bit her lip and her heart skipped a beat.
She looked at Shen Liangchuan anxiously, only to realize that he was just sitting there, staring at the computer screen.
Even though he was not staring at her with his dark eyes, she could still feel the pressure from him.
"What are you doing in my study?"
The question was simple and emotionless, but she did not dare to ignore it.
Qiao Lian lowered her head and said nervously, "I- I just came to see what you were doing."
Come to see what he was doing?
Shen Liangchuan was taken aback. He had not expected that she would say something like this.
He went to pick her up from work and the two of them did not speak on the way home. When they got home, he had only taken a shower and she wanted to be with him?
He suddenly recalled what she had said when he had taken her to work today. "Shen Liangchuan, I like you."
So, did she come into his study because she wanted to be with him?
As soon as he thought of this, the corners of his lips curled up imperceptibly. He felt his mood brighten up in an instant.
He replied with a faint "hmm" and continued to look at the computer.
Qiao Lian couldn't figure out what he was thinking.
Seeing that the other party didn't seem to have any intention of pursuing the matter, she heaved a sigh of relief.
She said casually, "Shen Liangchuan, no matter how busy you are at work, you have to remember to eat. I —"
Before she could say the words "I'm going out first", she saw him raise his head and stare at her with a burning gaze.
Qiao Lian swallowed the rest of her words, not daring to continue.
Why was he looking at her like that?
Was it because … she was a busybody and nagged at him, so he found her annoying?
