She looked at his face, which was less than five centimeters away from her. She was so shocked that she couldn't speak clearly. "Mr- Mr. Shen?"
He narrowed his eyes, a flash of embarrassment flashing across his narrow eyes. Qiao Lian felt that he was acting strangely.
Then she heard him say, "You should thank me indeed."
Qiao Lian widened her eyes and heard him continue, "You went through so much trouble to switch my phone. Didn't you want to join the filming crew and force me to teach her a lesson?"
Qiao Lian was stunned.
So this was what he thought of her?
She didn't want him to misunderstand. "I didn't mean to take the wrong phone, I —"
"Proof."
Qiao Lian's next words were stuck in her throat.
Taking the wrong phone? What proof?!
She had no way of proving that she hadn't done it on purpose.
Qiao Lian clenched her fists and said, "I didn't ask you to help me."
Shen Liangchuan snorted coldly and said, "In the future, if you were to be exposed as Mrs. Shen and I didn't save you today, it would be a black mark in history."
So he had helped her because of this?
Qiao Lian was stunned.
Suddenly, she heard the sound of a car horn. Through the rearview mirror, she could see the car behind them flashing its headlights impatiently.
Shen Liangchuan returned to his seat and started the car.
His expression returned to normal as he looked ahead, but his heart couldn't calm down.
She had thanked him, but to his ears, it sounded like she was being sarcastic.
She had treated him so badly eight years ago, and now he was helping her.
A feeling of irritation arose in him again.
He opened the car window a little and let in the cold wind. His anger was finally appeased.
He glanced at her from the corner of his eye and realized that she had been silent ever since he had said those words. Her head was lowered.
At this moment, as the wind blew through her hair, she instinctively hugged her arms. Her whole body was shivering from the cold.
The remaining bit of anger suddenly disappeared just like that.
He quietly closed the window and continued to look ahead.
Very soon, they arrived at the Shen villa.
The car stopped and Shen Liangchuan got out of the car first. Without waiting for Qiao Lian, he went straight into the living room.
Qiao Lian finally heaved a sigh of relief. Even her breathing was smooth.
She got out of the car and walked into the room.
There was no sign of Shen Liangchuan in the living room. The butler walked over and said, "Ms. Qiao, Sir is upstairs in the bedroom."
Qiao Lian replied with an "oh" and went upstairs to the guest room.
Surely, Shen Liangchuan didn't want to see her now, so why should she go over and make things difficult for him?
After a while, the housekeeper knocked on the door and came in. "Miss Qiao, Sir said that your arm is injured and asked me to help you deal with it."
Does he remember the wound on her arm?
However, he immediately shook his head and patted his head.
Qiao Lian, oh Qiao Lian, don't flatter yourself!
— —
After the wound was treated, not long after the housekeeper left, he brought her an exquisite dinner.
After eating and drinking to her heart's content, she lay on the bed and looked at Shen Liangchuan's cell phone over and over again.
Should I go over now and ask him to change my phone?
Qiao Lian got off the bed and tiptoed out of the room. She walked to the door of the master bedroom and quietly opened it. She heard the sound of running water coming from the bathroom.
