Qiao Lian was dumbfounded—she was absolutely stunned.
Any other man would have turned around and pretended that nothing had ever happened after finding himself in an awkward situation with another person.
So, why was Shen Liangchuan asking this now?
Her gaze was fixed on his face. If not for the fact that he looked apathetic and serious at this moment, she would have thought that this guy was purposely doing this!
Meeting his light gaze, she could only cough and say, “Today- The clothes you bought for me today, I was trying them out to see if they fit me.”
Shen Liangchuan said affirmatively, “Oh.” He then turned around, casually picked up his laptop and turned to sit on the sofa.
Just as Qiao Lian was breathing a sigh of relief, she heard him say, “They fit you.”
Qiao Lian: …
So, was she being praised?
However, doesn’t Best Actor Shen typically go to the bathroom to wash up immediately after he returned home? Why was he sitting here, unmoving?
Qiao Lian was close to crying. Wrapped in the blanket, she did not know what she should do.
After a long while, the ringtone coming from a cell phone shattered the silence in the room.
She perked her ears up, hugged the blanket and sat up. Her large eyes looked around the room a couple of times before landing on the sofa upon which Shen Liangchuan was currently sitting on.
Only then did she realize that while she had been trying out the clothes, she had thrown her towel and cell phone on top of the sofa.
Qiao Lian bit her lip and pretended that she was dead, hoping that nobody had heard the phone ringing.
However, as she laid down, she heard Shen Liangchuan’s voice saying, “Your phone’s ringing.”
Qiao Lian: …
She obviously knew that her phone was ringing. He should be helping her by bringing the phone over!
However, it was futile to hope for Best Actor Shen to assist her.
Qiao Lian clenched her teeth and said, “It’s no problem, it is probably a scam call.”
“Who is Xiao Ye?”
“My colleague.”
“Then, it’s your colleague who is placing this call.”
Qiao Lian said, “So, what about it?”
“Do you want me to answer it for you?”
His one sentence caused Qiao Lian to uncover the blanket from her with a whoosh. She jumped off the bed and hurriedly rushed to his side, grabbing the phone from him and saying, “There’s no need”.
What a joke!
If she lets him answer the call, wouldn’t her identity as Mrs. Shen be exposed?
She snatched the cell phone from him and answered it, uttering a quick “hello”. She then quickly turned around and attempted to walk to the bed. It was then that she realized that Shen Liangchuan had strode to the side of the bed.
It would be rather inappropriate if she ran over and jumped onto the bed at this moment.
However, the clothes on her body…
At this moment, Xiao Ye’s voice emanated from the phone, saying, “Ahhh! Ms. Qiao, guess what I just saw?”
Without waiting for Qiao Lian to speak, she continued, “I saw Best Actor Shen’s car! It’s just parked outside the entranceway to the mansion. This means that Best Actor Shen is home tonight. It also means that Mrs. Shen is inside the mansion! Qiao Lian, come quick! I will send you the address on WeChat in a second.”
Qiao Lian: …!
She quickly ran to the window and looked outside. She saw that a car had indeed parked outside the mansion. In addition, a familiar silhouette was sauntering around the car, excitedly holding a cell phone while jumping and smiling.
Qiao Lian: …
How could she go over now?
“Xiao Ye, why are you here? Eh, oops, I mean, why are you there? Aren’t you afraid of him?” As she spoke, she sneakily looked behind her and realized that Shen Liangchuan was currently looking at her.
She immediately coughed and grabbed her cell phone, thinking that he had heard her conversation with Xiao Ye.
She had completely forgotten that she was currently wearing a sexy outfit. She also did not notice the fiery stare that Shen Liangchuan was levelling at her.
