After hearing that pitiful voice, Shen Liangchuan felt as though his heart was being grabbed.
He closed his eyes and softened. The disgusted expression he had had earlier turned complex at that instant, when he heard the word “Brother.” He paused for a while and then replied, “What happened?”
“I miss you, my brother…”
The girl’s cries were coupled with dejection. “Can you come and see me?”
In the past, he had accompanied her numerous nights to see the stars when she was crying.
If it had been back then, he would have gone to visit her without saying a word.
But now, as he thought of the things that she had done to Qiao Lian, almost causing Qiao Lian not to be able to get pregnant ever again, he simply couldn’t forgive her for the things she had done.
Shen Liangchuan looked down. “My mom is coming over. She will be there in a short while.”
“But I want to see you, my brother!”
Shen Liangchuan looked up and with a sharp and penetrating gaze. He stared ahead and said, “Yuanxi, I know you’ve understood.”
His words silenced her.
After a short while, she started to cry again. “Brother Liangchuan, why are you treating me like this? Tell me, have I done anything wrong?”
Done anything wrong?
Shen Liangchuan turned around and looked at the girl who was sitting on the bed in the bedroom.
After adjusting her hair behind her ears, she looked down at her cell phone in a serious manner. Both her hands were rapidly pressing the screen. At the looks of it, she was probably compiling an article.
The light in the room was shining on her, making her look even more gentle.
That made the whole room become bright and warm.
He averted his gaze and replied to the person on the other end of the line, “You have not done wrong.”
“It’s me who has done wrong.”
Shen Liangchuan turned around and then shifted his gaze to the blurry stars in the faraway night sky.
“But I am willing to continue to be wrong all the way.”
“Yuanxi, I know you are holding a grudge. I cannot be ruthless with you. But if there is anything that you have to do, please target me instead.”
It seemed that Song Yuanxi was shocked by his words.
A few minutes of silence passed before she suddenly burst out, “Brother Liangchuan! This has nothing to do with you! She’s not you! Both of you are separate individuals!”
“She is now my wife,” Shen Liangchuan said gradually.
Song Yuanxi froze.
Holding onto their cell phones, they both did not say a word for a long time.
Time passed gradually.
Song Yuanxi laughed sarcastically.
Her voice calmed down and that was frightening. “Shen Liangchuan, no matter what, do you remember that tomorrow is a special day?”
Clenching his jaw, Shen Liangchuan replied, “I remember.”
Song Yuanxi sneered, “Good that you remembered.”
After that, she hung up the phone without hesitation.
Shen Liangchuan turned around to look at Qiao Lian once again.
She seemed to not want to stop, as she continued busily working.
Although they had been trying their best to sustain their relationship the past few days, it still seemed like there was some sort of barrier between them.
Even though both of them were in the same room, they had their own sentiments.
This night was destined to be a sleepless night.
The next day, Qiao Lian brought along her panda eyes to work, yawning away the whole day.
Shi Nianyao couldn’t help but to shake her head. “Chief Editor Lian Lian, have you not been sleeping these few days?”
Qiao Lian waved her hand at her and then threw her cell phone over to Shi Nianyao. “Take a look at my report to see if it is ok. I did this over the night.”
Then, she took some medicated oil and applied it onto her temples. That feeling was incredibly good!
She then patted herself on the face. “Qiao Lian, you can do it!”
After doing these, she then rushed to the Managing Editor’s office, feeling energized and gallant.
After submitting her report, she made sure she must definitely receive her reporter’s certificate by today!
