Chapter 43 The long-lost villa

 When the taxi stopped outside the villa, Qiao Lian was still feeling a little emotional.

Entering the living room, she found that Shen Liangchuan had not come back yet. She was sitting on the sofa like a guest, waiting for him quietly.

After about half an hour, I finally heard the sound of a car horn. Qiao Lian stood up and looked at the door in panic.

 Shen Liangchuan strode in.

He was wearing a casual sweater today, with his hands in his trouser pockets. His expressionless face and indifferent eyes were as distant and indifferent as ever.

After he walked in, he probably saw her, so he paused and then continued to look ahead.

 Qiao Lian bit her lower lip, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Mr. Shen..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw him going straight upstairs.

 Qiao Lian froze on the spot, thinking of her brother in the hospital, stamped her feet, and walked up.

 The door to the master bedroom was open. She walked in and found that no one was in the bedroom. Then she heard the sound of running water from the bathroom.

Even though she only lived with Shen Liangchuan for four days, Qiao Lian had already discovered that this man had mysophobia, and the first thing he did when he got home was to take a shower.

 But now, is she staying here waiting for him to come out? Or go out and wait for him to come out?

 After struggling for a while, Qiao Lian finally sat on the sofa in the master bedroom.

 They already have this kind of relationship, what else is there to avoid suspicion?

After a while, the sound of water flow finally stopped, and Shen Liangchuan walked out of the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel.

He wiped his hair with a towel. His strong aura made Qiao Lian feel a little restless. She simply stood up and said cautiously: "Mr. Shen..."

Shen Liangchuan finally seemed to notice her presence and raised his eyes to look at her.

Qiao Lian continued: "Mr. Shen, why is the card you gave me frozen?"

Shen Liangchuan raised his eyebrows, "Frozen?"

Qiao Lian nodded, "Yes, could you please take a look at what's going on, because I urgently need the money now."

"oh."

With a shallow word, Shen Liangchuan continued to wipe his hair.

 Qiao Lian couldn't help but urge: "Mr. Shen?"

Shen Liangchuan looked over and said, "Do you want me to look at this for you?"

ˆ Qiao Lian:…

Qiao Lian could only wait for him to wipe his hair patiently, and then followed behind him, "Mr. Shen?"

 “I’ll put on my clothes first.”

"…good."

 After getting dressed, he said, "Eat first."

"…good."

 In the restaurant, Qiao Lian sat together with Shen Liangchuan, diligently picking up vegetables and serving soup for him.

 He eats very elegantly, but he eats very slowly.

When he finally finished eating, before Qiao Lian could say anything, his cell phone rang.

Shen Liangchuan said: "Let me answer the phone first."

So I took my mobile phone and went to the study room on the second floor.

 Qiao Lian had a hearty meal and wandered downstairs anxiously, thinking that he would come down after making the phone call, right?

But…

 An hour passed, and Shen Liangchuan still hadn't come downstairs.

 Qiao Lian couldn't help but secretly went upstairs. Standing at the door of the study, she saw Shen Liangchuan holding a mobile phone and sitting behind the desk, saying: "...Yes, um, you continue."

Qiao Lian silently backed away. When she went downstairs, Shen Liangchuan raised his eyes and put down his phone.

The screen was completely black and there was no caller ID at all.

In the early morning, Shen Liangchuan walked out of the study and searched around the villa, and finally saw Qiao Lian lying on the sofa in the master bedroom, asleep.
