Qiao Lian stared at that message dazedly, complex emotions were emerging in her heart.
Wang Wenhao had slapped her twice, so Shen Liangchuan had punched him twice.
This made her recall the Zi Chuan she knew.
She remembered that she used to hate being killed in the game.
As whenever she got killed, she would have to anxiously wait for revival.
However, since she didn’t play tank, she easily got killed.
Thus, if anyone killed her, she would remember it and ask Zi Chuan to kill him. And, the number of times Zi Chuan retaliated and killed this player would be the exact number of times this person had killed her.
This was done in order to shock everyone, let them understand that when they were competing against both of them, they couldn’t be chasing after Xiao Qiao and trying to kill her. Or else, they would receive Zi Chuan’s revenge.
Now…
Shen Liangchuan had beaten Wang Wenhao up, which reminded her of Zi Chuan.
She didn’t understand why, but the Zi Chuan in her memories, the one that had been deeply buried in her heart, was slowly emerging now.
She put down her phone and laid on her bed. She fell asleep unknowingly, as she indulged in weird thoughts.
In her dream, she saw Zi Chuan, who was donning an armor and running forward at a very high speed.
She was Xiao Qiao, but when she wanted to rush forward to look at him, she realized that she couldn’t move at all.
She reached out her hand anxiously in the dark, shouting, “Zi Chuan, Zi Chuan, wait for me!”
Zi Chuan really stopped and slowly turned around.
Qiao Lian then started smiling at him, but when she saw his face, she suddenly jumped in shock. “Shen Liangchuan? Why is it you?”
It was when she opened her eyes that she realized that she had been dreaming.
After recalling the dream, she realized that it was outrageous.
She gave a bitter laugh and patted her head.
Qiao Lian, what are you thinking about!
She took a deep breath and picked up her phone. When she looked at it, she saw the message Chuanliu Buxi had sent her:
[Chuanliu Buxi: Qiao Lian, do you know Best Actor Shen? Why is Best Actor Shen taking revenge for you? Hurry up, tell me the truth!]
She remained silent for a while and replied:
[Qiao Lian: You are overthinking.]
After turning off WeChat, she checked the time and realized that it was already five in the afternoon.
The servants had been summoned to villa 18 by Caretaker Li to tidy up Song Yuanxi’s room. Hence, no one was at home, so she entered the kitchen with the intentions to cook a bowl of noodles for herself.
The chopping sound she made when cutting the vegetables was too loud, thus she didn’t hear the engine of the car.
She was in a good mood, as Wang Wenhao had been beaten up. Therefore, she was humming and shaking her buttocks while putting the vegetables, meat and noodles into the pot. However, she suddenly heard a voice behind her, “This is how you cook noodles?”
That one sentence gave her a shock. Her hands loosened their grip and all the vegetables dropped on the floor.
She swallowed and turned around. Her eyes met with Shen Liangchuan’s, who was standing at the door and donning a white shirt.
She had no idea as to how long he had been standing there, which caused her to delve into panic.
Qiao Lian widened her eyes. “M- Mr. Shen, why are you back?”
She suddenly realized something and hurriedly turned her head, covering her cheeks with her hair.
But after doing so, she suddenly realized that he probably had already seen the hand marks on her cheeks.
Yet, after he had seen it, he hadn’t spoken nor shown any signs of surprise, which meant that… he already knew she had been slapped?
So…
Qiao Lian’s eyes immediately shone, as she suddenly turned her head and rashly asked, “Mr. Shen, did you hit Wang Wenhao because of me?”
