Their eyes met. 13579246810ggaax
Qiao Lian paused for a moment and then looked away awkwardly.
She didn't know what to do or say.
At once, the atmosphere became awkward.
At this point, Auntie Li came out of the kitchen and said, "Madam, Madam, you're home? Dinner's ready, hurry up and wash your hands before you eat. "
Her words lightened the atmosphere in the room.
After washing up, Qiao Lian and Xia Yehua returned to the dining table.
The three of them ate in silence.
Xia Yehua was so worried about Song Yuanxi that she didn't notice the strange atmosphere between Shen Liangchuan and Qiao Lian.
After dinner, Xia Yehua went upstairs to pack two sets of clothes. "I'm going to the hospital to look after Yuanxi. I'm sure she'll cry if she's alone."
Without waiting for Qiao Lian and Shen Liangchuan to refuse, she rushed out of the room.
Auntie Li and the other housekeepers were in the kitchen cleaning up.
Qiao Lian and Shen Liangchuan were alone in the living room.
Pretending to be busy, Qiao Lian scrolled through Weibo on her cell phone.
Shen Liangchuan continued to read the newspaper.
But she noticed that he hadn't turned the page for a long time.
What was on his mind?
Was he worried about Song Yuanxi's condition or something else?
Qiao Lian hung her head and clenched her fists.
After a while, she couldn't help but ask, "Shen Liangchuan, who is Song Yuanxi?"
Shen Liangchuan was taken aback. He hadn't expected Qiao Lian to ask such a question.
He looked up and realized that Qiao Lian was staring straight at him.
There was stubbornness and probing in her gaze.
It was as though she was trying to confirm something.
He pursed his lips and slowly hung his head.
Qiao Lian didn't let it go. She pretended to be relaxed and said, "Why didn't you tell me? Can't you tell me about Song Yuanxi's background? "
Shen Liangchuan could smell the tension in her words.
He paused and then said unhurriedly, "The sister of an old friend."
The sister of an old friend.
Qiao Lian couldn't help but mock him in her heart.
She had initially held onto a glimmer of hope that what Song Yuanxi had told her was a lie.
But now, she had gotten confirmation from Shen Liangchuan.
She straightened her back and looked at Shen Liangchuan stubbornly. After a pause, she continued, "This old friend must be very important to you?"
She had to admit it.
She was really jealous.
Song Yuanxi's plan had worked.
She didn't mind that Shen Liangchuan had once loved someone else, but she wanted to know who was more important in his heart now, her or his first love.
She also knew that she was being unreasonable.
Perhaps it was the most ridiculous thing in the world to be jealous of someone who wasn't there.
But she still stared at him.
Then, she heard his voice. "Yes, it's very important."
These four words were spoken lightly, but they were like four knives that fiercely stabbed into her heart.
Qiao Lian felt as though all the energy had been sucked out of her. She collapsed onto the sofa and stared at him.
Then, she stood up. "I'm sleepy."
As soon as he finished speaking, he went straight upstairs.
As Shen Liangchuan looked at her back, he felt the invisible pressure on him intensify.
Qiao Lian had suddenly asked about Song Yuanxi. Was it because she had sensed something?
Thinking of this, he lowered his eyes.
After a while, his tightly clenched fist slowly loosened.
Then he stood up, slowly walked upstairs, and walked to the door of the master bedroom.
