The room was silent all of a sudden. Lu Ming and Fan Lu were both flabbergasted.
They simultaneously turned to look at Qiao Lian.
After a while, Lu Ming coughed once and said, “This—”
Fan Lu interrupted him, “This is not possible!”
How could a junior reporter be the wife of Best Actor Shen?
She must have misheard?
She widened her eyes and gulped down, unable to accept the reality.
But when she looked at the couple again, Shen Liangchuan was still standing there with his hand placed affectionately on Qiao Lian’s arm.
Fan Lu’s gaze fell on Qiao Lian once more. Only now did she realize that although the junior reporter’s clothes were ordinary, her features were delicate and well worth a few looks. She was as pretty as any other celebrity.
Lu Ming confusedly looked at Qiao Lian, and then his gaze went back to Shen Liangchuan. Finally he said, “Gosh, this has really been a big misunderstanding! Who would have thought we’re family? As the saying goes… sometimes what we’re looking for is right before us, isn’t it so, Sister-in-law?”
Seeing that Lu Ming had a sudden change of attitude, Qiao Lian felt satisfied.
She glanced at Shen Liangchuan.
From the start, she had known that Shen Liangchuan would be on her side, but she had not expect that he would announce their relationship to them.
She couldn’t help but smile at the wondrous feeling that from now on she would be protected.
As for Fan Lu, she could only twitch her lips and quickly say, “So it seems like it’s all been a misunderstanding.”
“Misunderstanding?” Shen Liangchuan raised his eyebrows and glanced at Lu Ming. “She is not your lover?”
Lu Ming kept silent.
“So really, there’s no misunderstanding. Lu Ming, you’re still such a fearful man when handling important matters. Are you afraid to take up responsibility for your own acts?”
At his remark, Lu Ming’s ears turned red. He winced and said, “Brother Shen, you’re a bit harsh with your words.”
“It’s not that my words are harsh, it’s that you have bad taste.”
Lu Ming kept silent.
Shen Liangchuan put his arm around Qiao Lian’s waist and led her to the doorway without even throwing a mere glance at Fan Lu. He said to Lu Ming, “See you again.”
Then with his arm still around Qiao Lian, they left the room.
As they were walking out of the room, they heard someone say with a humorous tone, “Say, isn’t that my brother?”
On hearing the somewhat familiar voice, Qiao Lian looked up and saw at once the man in the loud shirt who she had ran into earlier on. He was now standing right before of them.
He slightly raised his eyebrow with a look of surprise. His remark was directed at Shen Liangchuan?
On realizing this, Qiao Lian looked at Shen Liangchuan. At the same time, she felt him halt and tense up.
The lighting along the corridor was dim and Qiao Lian found herself looking straight at the bright colors on his shirt.
Now that she was face to face with the man, her mind could finally register his features.
Qiao Lian widened her eyes at once and stared at the man in disbelief. Then she turned and looked at Shen Liangchuan.
No wonder she found the man with the loud shirt vaguely familiar. Now that she was looking at the both of them, she could see their resemblance.
As these thoughts flashed through her mind, she noticed the man gave Shen Liangchuan a sinister look and then shifted his gaze to her. At once he put on a joyful expression, reached out his hand and grabbed Qiao Lian’s arm, saying, “Brother! This woman is mine now!”
