Chapter 239  : This Is The Ending She Wants (9)

Qiao Lian froze on the spot.

She was holding onto the phone with so much strength that her veins were practically popping out of the back of her hands.

A sense of humiliation instantly overwhelmed her.

She had thought that he had also developed feelings for her, but actually… he was going to undergo a ligation surgery behind her back?

Did he not want to have a child with her so desperately? Was that the reason why after he had harmed her body, he was going to hurt himself now?

Clenching her teeth, she heard the voice coming from the speaker, “Mr Shen?”

She came back to her senses only then.

The more angry she was, the more heartbroken she was and the more logical she was.

Strangely, she managed to calm down her emotions and suppress the anger within her. She was so calm that she seemed to be wearing a mask. “Okay, I will pass the message to Sir.”

The doctor on the other end thought that she was the servant, so he answered with ease, “Okay.”

There were sounds coming from upstairs, so Qiao Lian hurriedly ended the call. When she looked up, she saw Shen Liangchuan, who was dressed neatly, walking down gracefully.

Qiao Lian stared at him.

He looked the same as usual. She could not tell any emotions from his pair of dark eyes.

If she had not accepted the call, Qiao Lian would have never believed that Shen Liangchuan could do such a thing.

He could sense her discerning gaze, hence he looked up indifferently.

Afterwards, Qiao Lian handed him the cell phone casually. “Don’t forget about your phone.”

As for what the doctor had said… She did not intend to tell him.

Shen Liangchuan took his phone and walked out. Qiao Lian paused for a moment before following him.

She was feeling unusually calm at the moment.

She also felt utterly hopeless and an inexplicable suffocation.

However, she still had a smile on her face while she followed Shen Liangchuan out.

They got into the car and Shen Liangchuan drove her to the office.

As Qiao Lian stared at the scenery outside, her mind was blank. Just when she was in a daze, she heard a voice beside her, “Are you feeling down today?”

Qiao Lian came back to reality immediately. “Not at all!”

Shen Liangchuan did not say anything else. He glanced at her and then looked ahead again.

Qiao Lian explained, “We usually don’t talk either, do we? I’m fine, really. I’m quite happy.”

She should be happy.

At least there were no doubts left about leaving, because she had lost all hope.

However she was completely unaware that even though she had put on a mask, he could still see at once that there was a hidden sadness behind that smile.

Why was she unhappy?

Shen Liangchuan wanted to find out, but she seemed to be reluctant to share it, so he simply kept quiet.

The interactions between them had always been strange. The incident from eight years ago was still etched in his mind, so it might have caused him to still not be able to be honest with her.

The car reached Qiao Lian’s office in no time.

When Qiao Lian was about to alight, Shen Liangchuan suddenly said, “If there’s anything you need help with for work, feel free to tell me.”

She stopped opening the car door and her eyes narrowed.

The same thing had happened again.

If everything was just for a show, why would he be so nice to her?

She turned around. “Sure. If I don’t reach my target this month, I can just publish any piece of news from yesterday evening and it will easily make headlines!”

This teasing reminded Shen Liangchuan of that awkward question last night, so he turned away and remained silent.

Qiao Lian got off the car and waved goodbye to him. Right after she turned, she saw Su Meimei glaring at her with hatred written all over her face. After she looked away, Su Meimei said ruthlessly, “Qiao Lian, Best Actor Shen is married! Aren’t you scared that Mrs Shen will find out about your relationship with him?”

Qiao Lian froze on the spot.
