Chapter 1115: Best Actor Shen Is Jealous (1)
Lu Nanze narrowed his eyes at this thought. Then he lifted his gaze and looked upstairs.
This was the Qiao family’s home, although the property belonged to him.
But Shen Liangchuan acted like the master of the house, deciding whether he could stay or leave.
He had had quite enough of Shen Liangchuan’s attitude whenever he came to look for Qiao Lian.
Lu Nanze narrowed his eyes and turned to leave after a moment.
–
Upstairs, when Qiao Lian saw that Shen Liangchuan had returned to the room, her eyes searched behind him.
She was surprised that he had returned so quickly with no drama.
Shen Liangchuan walked up to her and sat down in front, saying, “If my prediction is correct, he should be contacting you very soon, to ask you to return to work.”
Qiao Lian’s pupils shrank back as she stared at Shen Liangchuan. After a pause, she nodded.
He placed his hands on her shoulders and said to her, “During this time, you have to ensure your own safety.”
Qiao Lian nodded and said, “Don’t worry, I’ll work hard at keeping myself safe.”
Shen Liangchuan kept silent.
He seemed to have lost the decisiveness he had had when he agreed to it.
He looked at her intently and suddenly started, “Xiao Qiao.”
“Yes?”
Hesitating for a while, he finally said slowly, “You and he were on such good terms in the past, you were close. What I’m saying is…. If nothing had happened to your parents, perhaps this whole matter would have had nothing to do with him, so you and he…”
The normally cool and great Best Actor, who had never had trouble delivering his lines, was now stammering and not making sense with his words. Qiao Lian looked at him with a confused expression.
As she listened, she finally understood and widened her eyes at once
Looking at Shen Liangchuan, she said, “What are you saying? I’ve always treated him like a buddy. Besides, the way he treats me, that isn’t liking me and it isn’t love either. It’s just a sort of… How can you say it? You know… When he was younger, he had a strange temperament and I was his only friend. I think I’m just a habit for him, an obsession. If he really liked me, how could he have that sort of relationship with Qiao Yiyi? Hence, you don’t have to worry! He and I… There’s no possibility.”
After hearing these words, Shen Liangchuan looked at Qiao Lian and opened his mouth as though he wanted to say something.
He wanted to say that if Lu Nanze didn’t like her, he wouldn’t have let her keep the child.
But as these words came up, he found himself unable to utter them.
Why should he speak up for his love rival?
That would be inane.
He had to admit it, he was agitated by Lu Nanze.
This man had grown up together with her, like a childhood lover. He made Shen Liangchuan feel like he had missed out on eighteen years of Xiao Qiao’s life.
But it was he and Xiao Qiao who were fated to be together, wasn’t it so?
At this thought, Shen Liangchuan said, “Yes, I do believe you.”
Qiao Lian looked at him and grinned. “Haha, why do I feel like you’re getting a little uptight about me? But with a beautiful woman like me, you should be uptight! Hahaha.”
Shen Liangchuan looked serious at once when she said these words.
She froze immediately as her laughter ended abruptly. Shen Liangchuan said, “That’s right. It gets me really uptight, thinking that I’m about to send you into the lion’s lair.”
Qiao Lian: …
As they were speaking, Qiao Lian’s cell phone rang.
