Why was everyone hiding this from her?
But when the taxi pulled up in front of the Shen villa, she got out of the car and frowned deeply as she looked at the huge villa. 13579246810ggaax
After a moment, she walked in slowly.
As she entered the house, she saw that Xia Yehua and Auntie Li had bought a lot of fish and were stocking it in the fridge.
When they saw her, they immediately said, "Xiao Qiao, come here quickly. This batch of fish is really fresh!"
Qiao Lian walked over and looked at the fish. She nodded and turned to look around. "Mom, where's Shen Liangchuan?"
"Oh, he just got a call and went out."
Shen Liangchuan wasn't home?
Qiao Lian nodded and listened to Xia Yehua and Auntie Li ramble on about the menu they had prepared for Xia Nuannuan's parents when they came over for dinner.
An hour later, Shen Liangchuan finally returned.
The first thing he did when he entered was take off his coat. Qiao Lian noticed that his expression was cold, but it warmed up a little when he saw the person in the room.
When Xia Yehua saw him, she asked casually, "Where did you go in such a hurry?"
Shen Liangchuan replied without thinking, "I didn't go anywhere."
But as he said this, he felt that he shouldn't keep this from Xia Yehua.
He pursed his lips and said, "The rehab home called me just now. They said Song Yuanxi wants to see me."
Xia Yehua was slightly taken aback when she heard the news. She looked at him and asked, "So what did you say?"
His gaze fell on Qiao Lian, who had been observing him without saying a word. After a pause, he said, "She said she wanted to go home for the New Year."
Wanted to go home for the New Year.
Indeed, it had been Mei Feng's idea.
Qiao Lian frowned and looked up.
Xia Yehua paused and asked, "So you agreed?"
After saying this, she realized that she had been asking a lot of nonsense.
If he had agreed, Song Yuanxi would have come home with him.
Looking at him now, it was obvious that he hadn't agreed.
Xia Yehua hung her head dejectedly. But then she pulled herself together and said, "I know what you mean."
Shen Liangchuan's meaning was clear. She hadn't agreed to Song Yuanxi's request and was afraid that Song Yuanxi would ask Xia Yehua about it again. Hence, she had to inform Xia Yehua in advance, lest Xia Yehua soften and allow Song Yuanxi to return.
But the thought of Song Yuanxi spending the New Year all alone in the hospital made Xia Yehua's heart ache.
She glanced at him and heaved a sigh of relief.
Qiao Lian was really afraid that Song Yuanxi would try to get Shen Liangchuan to take her home again.
She wasn't afraid that Song Yuanxi would take revenge on her. She was just afraid that Song Yuanxi would stir up trouble again.
After dinner, she and Shen Liangchuan went upstairs.
She lay on the bed, thinking about Mei Feng. Suddenly, she felt a tight grip around her waist. At once, a masculine body approached her.
After a good workout, Qiao Lian's face was flushed and she was panting as she lay on the side.
Shen Liangchuan lay beside her, holding her in his arms.
Qiao Lian could hear Shen Liangchuan's heartbeat. It was so clear, so real. It made her feel as though all the pain and suffering she had been through were nothing compared to this heartbeat.
She took a deep breath. She wanted to ask him what had happened eight years ago, what had really happened.
But as the words were on the tip of her tongue, she thought of his reaction every time she asked this question. She swallowed them back down.
Qiao Lian narrowed her eyes in the dark.
He wouldn't say, but she could investigate.
