Chapter 1067: Who Am I? (9)
And furthermore, having an affair?
Since when had they had an affair?
His expression darkened and he started, “Qiao Lian, I’m not afraid of him, I—”
“I know, I know!” Qiao Lian answered at once. She waved her hand in his face and said, “But we’ve done something wrong to him, so we can’t let him know.”
Done something wrong to him?
He, Lu Nanze, had never felt that he had done anything wrong to that man.
Before he could say another word, Shen Liangchuan had already stepped through the entrance of the cafe and walked in.
Lu Nanze opened the restroom door and walked out. He was about to walk back to the dining area when Qiao Lian suddenly reached out and held him back by his head. He was stunned and, in that moment of distraction, was shoved back into the washroom by Qiao Lian. She glared at him fiercely as she turned. “You’d better behave yourself!”
Following this, there was a loud bang.
The washroom door had been slammed shut.
Lu Nanze was flabbergasted.
In all his life, this was the first time that anyone berated him.
He reached out to touch his head, his expression had darkened considerably by now.
In the past, when they had played together as a group, Sun Tzi and the rest had liked to joke around, but no one had ever dared to treat him like this.
Even Qiao Lian in the past had always been respectful towards him.
But just now…
Strangely, when he thought of the stony expression she had put and how she had berated him, he was suddenly reminded of how, in their youth, she had used to berate Sun Tzi in that very same way every time he did something wrong.
At that time, whenever he saw this, he had felt jealous.
He didn’t have any siblings, and his parents were always busy with work. No one had ever disciplined him strictly. On the other hand, this sort of disciplining could only come from a family member. It surprisingly gave him a sense of warmth somewhere deep in his heart, at the same time that he was furious.
The Xiao Qiao he was seeing now made Lu Nanze suddenly feel that they had gone back eight years.
The Qiao Lian eight years later was a product of a tough life, a life that had completely worn down her sharp edges.
The Qiao Lian eight years ago was wilful and unrestrained, it was a part of her that Lu Nanze reminisced.
He was so taken aback by his own complex emotions that he failed to retaliate. He, the grand young master of the Lu family, ended up hiding in the washroom.
Meanwhile outside, in the cafe, Qiao Lian immediately waved at Shen Liangchuan when she saw him. She put on her sweetest smile.
Except that, as an incompetent liar, her eyes wandered everywhere and avoided him entirely.
Shen Liangchuan looked around and asked, “What are you doing here?”
“I- I came for a coffee!” She pointed at the table on the side.
He swept his gaze in this direction and saw two cups on the table. He replied in a casual but cool tone, “You had two cups of coffee?”
She fumbled for an answer, “Er… I wanted to see if there was a difference between the two flavours.”
At this point, she saw that Shen Liangchuan’s gaze had started to roam around the cafe. She quickly took a step towards him and grabbed his arm, saying, “Honey, let’s go home.”
At the sound of “honey,” he felt fuzzy inside.
He glanced at her. Her clear and bright eyes blinked innocently at him, making her look lively and adorable.
He sighed. Then his gaze fell on the washroom door. After a pause, he nodded and headed back to the Qiao family home with Qiao Lian.
Shen Liangchuan had an extremely dashing profile.
And Qiao Lian felt very secure when she was with him.
At the same time, he could stir something inside of her.
It was a completely different feeling from the sense of repulsion she had when she was with Lu Nanze.
