Qiao Lian was a stubborn person.
She thought that she would go through an unforgettable first love and get married to him. However, little did she expect that in the end, it was just her imagination.
Shen Liangchuan wasn’t nice to her, but at least she was able to feel him and see him.
But that person, she totally didn’t know who he really was, his real name or where he lived.
She wanted to find him, but the capital, Beijing, had millions of people. How would she be able to find him in that vast sea of people?
As she thought so, Qiao Lian lowered her head. Desperation and sadness suddenly overwhelmed her heart.
He was just a swindler.
Although that unreal relationship had already passed eight years ago, every time she was reminded of it, she felt sad and embarrassed.
Qiao Lian took a deep breath, disallowing herself to get immersed in her memories, as she stood up straight.
Then, she saw Shen Liangchuan’s nanny van driving out of the car park.
She hurriedly halted a cab and got in it. “Driver, please follow the car in front.”
As the car drove, she sat at the backseat feeling unhappy.
She took her phone and searched for ‘lot’ in the application store. Immediately, it showed many application suggestions. However, after she hesitated for a long time, she didn’t do anything and locked her phone.
‘Lot’ was a classic game that had been around for more than ten years. It used to be her favorite, but it had witnessed the biggest joke of her life.
Qiao Lian smiled queerly and threw her phone into her bag. Her right hand slightly trembled, showing the agitation in her heart.
In the cab, she took a few deep breaths, burying the memories back into the depths of her heart. She looked at the nanny van in front of the cab.
The car finally stopped at a hotel
It was one that many artists liked patronizing, as it provided better privacy.
When Qiao Lian got off the car, she could feel that there was a large number of reporters in the surroundings.
She didn’t bother, as there were usually many people who liked to watch the area.
She found a discrete corner and sent her location to the managing editor.
The fact that Shen Liangchuan was coming here to dine meant that he was probably meeting with someone to discuss certain matters.
As she was deeply absorbed in her thoughts, she leaned on the wall and silently looked into the distance.
Only when she suddenly felt a pinch of hunger, she realized that she hadn’t eaten lunch.
She lowered her head and patted her stomach.
In her thoughts, an image suddenly flashed through.
It was from eight years ago, the time when she was the most addicted to ‘lot’. She always neglected her meals when gaming.
She made sure that her profile picture was dark and not offline. Thus, in ‘lot’, a young lady dressed in a yellow dress with a high ponytail was killing many monsters skillfully. At that moment, a shadow suddenly appeared behind her.
The dark figure that appeared out of nowhere gave her a huge shock.
After this, a few words appeared on her screen, “Why are you so stupid! You took so long to kill just a few low-leveled monsters?”
She twitched her lips and said. “I’m not as well-equipped as you are!”
He didn’t answer and joined the fight.
The fight that was supposed to last twenty minutes ended in five after he joined in. He then fiercely commented, “That was totally a waste of time, might as well spend the time having lunch!”
Qiao Lian’s lips curved up.
That was him. He was mean on the surface, but his words were full of care. He was actually concerned about her not eating on time, but he had to show his malicious facade.
Qiao Lian was lost in thought when the police siren rang. She turned her head and suddenly saw a few police cars stopping outside the hotel door.
Her heart leapt. What happened?
