She left the cafe where she had been negotiating with Su Penghao and walked down the street. 13579246810
Although she was disappointed that Zombie Leader would not be able to join her team, at this moment, she was more concerned about what Song Cheng had said.
Shen Liangchuan had disappeared.
He had been like this before, disappearing for a few days when he was unhappy.
But why was he unhappy? Was it because she had asked for a divorce and he had lost face?
Or was it because …
She didn't dare to follow this train of thought any further. Too many disillusionments had made her feel that she was always overthinking things.
She shook her head and was about to head home when her cell phone rang.
She paused and looked down at the screen. It was Song Yuanxi.
She pursed her lips and picked up the call. Song Yuanxi asked, "Sister-in-law, do you know where Brother Liangchuan is?"
Because it was winter, there were very few people at the seaside of Qinhuangdao.
Shen Liangchuan stood on the balcony of a villa close to the sea. His indifferent gaze was fixed on the distant sea.
As he stood there, the sea breeze blew gently. It didn't feel like the cool summer breeze, but rather the cold.
He was wearing a sweater and trousers, but he didn't seem to feel the cold at all. He took a deep puff of his cigarette, trying to suppress the irritation in his body.
In the past, whenever he was upset, he would come out to look at the sea.
Just like eight years ago, he had only stayed by the sea for a few days before he had calmed down.
But now, staring at the sea, he couldn't calm down no matter what.
He took another puff. The nicotine rushed into his lungs, causing waves of heat in his body.
He turned his head and stubbed out the cigarette. With both hands on the balcony, he was clearly looking forward, but the scene of her calmly saying "let's divorce" to him that day replayed in his mind, and he couldn't get it out of his head.
He clenched his fists tightly.
Suddenly, he heard some movement downstairs.
This villa was his private property in Qinhuangdao.
But he had fixed residences all over the country. No one knew where he had gone during the few days he had disappeared to.
There was only one person who would know that he liked to look at the sea when he was upset.
At this thought, his eyes darkened. He turned his head and stared nervously at the corridor leading to the second floor.
After a while, the sound of footsteps could be heard. Slowly, a figure appeared in front of him.
After getting a clear look at the woman in front of him, his eyes darkened. The words that came out of his mouth contained a sullen anger that even he himself did not notice. "How did you know I was here?"
Song Yuanxi bit her lip and put on a timid expression. "I- I asked Sister-in-law … but she didn't allow me to tell you. But Brother Liangchuan, I haven't been able to find you for the past two days. Aunt Xia is very worried about you."
Shen Liangchuan cast his gaze down to hide the disappointment in his eyes.
When he was sad, he would look at the sea. This was a secret he had kept since he was young.
She was the only person he had ever told.
But now, she just casually told others about it?
He suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. It was as if a third person had barged into their secret zone.
It was getting late. Song Yuanxi was carrying a small backpack. She had planned to stay the night and leave early the next morning, but before she could say anything, Shen Liangchuan suddenly walked out. "Let's go back to Beijing."
She was slightly stunned, but did not say anything as she followed him out.
