Enson would always reply to her WeChat messages immediately, but now he hadn’t replied. If it was You Yi who told the teacher about her fear of heights, then who could have informed the teacher about the absence of the stand-in?
Could it be one of these crew members present?
No, that’s impossible... Li Qingshen always disliked being disturbed. His phone, his address, his whereabouts were all kept confidential. Following him to the villa to study, unless it was a very close person, rarely did any other calls come through. So how could these crew members possibly contact Li Qingshen directly? Even if they were to contact someone... it would only be You Yi, right?
So the only possibility was Enson, but Enson hadn’t replied to her WeChat messages. It was very likely that Enson hadn’t seen the message at all...
Then, how did Li Qingshen know?
A massive surge of doubts and confusion welled up in Ling Momo’s chest, and she couldn’t help but turn her head to look at Li Qingshen once again.
The man still wore a leisurely and calm demeanor, his eyes resting on her, his gaze soft and gentle, but Ling Momo could clearly see her own reflection in the depths of his eyes.
Perhaps it was because his eyes were so deep and beautiful, Ling Momo felt that her reflection in his pupils was incredibly pure and pristine.
Her heart fluttered inexplicably, and then she subtly shifted her gaze away, lightly bit her lower lip, hesitated for a moment, but still spoke up, asking, "Teacher... how did you know the stand-in didn’t show up?"
Li Qingshen obviously hadn’t expected Ling Momo to suddenly ask this question, and his expression paused for a moment. Find the newest release on noᴠelfire.net
At that time, when he received that WeChat message, he felt an urgency in his heart and hurriedly grabbed the car keys and left the villa.
Fearing he wouldn’t make it on time, he completely forgot to reply to her message.
Now, by asking this question, was she suspecting something?
Li Qingshen stood there with his hands in his pockets, staring at the shimmering swimming pool in front of him as if deep in thought.
Ling Momo had been watching Li Qingshen all this time, and at that moment, the sunlight streamed in from the outside, casting a golden halo around him, creating a painting-like scene of utmost beauty.
Ling Momo couldn’t help but think of the countless times she had come to the villa, and when pushing open the door to the third floor music room, she was greeted by a similar vista.
She had seen it many times, yet she never grew tired of it.
Moreover, every time she looked, she felt a sense of déjà vu, as if somewhere in her memory, she had seen a very similar scene.
Ling Momo found herself staring blankly at Li Qingshen’s silhouette, lost in thought. As she continued to gaze, it seemed as if the scene before her changed—a dark room, a man standing with his back to her, and a splendid nightscape of a thousand lights in front...
That was the only time she had ever seen Enson himself... just his silhouette. Even then, the lights in the room were dim, and she had been so nervous. Though she had stared blankly for a long time, in truth, she had seen only a fleeting glimpse... a breathtaking moment that shook the city to its core.
In the depths of her heart, an impression had indeed been left behind.
Ling Momo blinked, and the scene reverted back to that of Li Qingshen. Light and shadow flowed over him, transforming into a brilliant radiance that made the whole world seem dull in comparison, completely and utterly the same feeling she got from that silhouette of Enson from before!
