Chapter 368 - She Is My Wife! (8)
In the middle of the night, peals of laughter could be heard coming from the villa’s master bedroom on the second floor, causing the housekeeper downstairs to pop her head out of her room with curiosity.
What on earth was this couple doing?
But immediately after this, the housekeeper blushed.
Because she had heard the Madam’s laughter suddenly stop and turn into a low, pleading moan.
–
The next morning, Qiao Lian was too exhausted to get out of bed, while Shen Liangchuan was refreshed and energized.
Qiao Lian tried to move her fingers—they were a little numb. She thought about the man’s request last night and turned scarlet. It still made her heart thump.
The atmosphere between the couple had gotten intense and highly charged.
She found herself feeling too embarrassed to even look at him in the eyes.
After breakfast, he got ready to send her to work as usual.
Except…
As they were about to drive away, Shen Liangchuan suddenly stopped and frowned. He was looking at a car that had driven into the villa neighbourhood and was now approaching them.
He contemplated it for a moment and changed direction. “Let’s pop by Mom’s place for a bit first.”
Qiao Lian nodded.
On the way to Xia Yehua’s house, Qiao Lian realized that the car that they had seen driving into the villa was now parked at the courtyard.
She got out of the car, and then to her surprise, saw the guy with the loud shirt getting out of the other car.
Eh?
Wasn’t that… Shen Zihao?
No wonder Shen Liangchuan had made the sudden decision to come to his mother’s place. It must have been because he had seen Shen Zichuan’s car.
As this thought ran through Qiao Lian’s mind, the main door swung open and Xia Yehua appeared at the doorway with bloodshot eyes.
She stared at Shen Zihao in disbelief for a moment. Her quivering lips managed to hoarsely whisper, “Zihao?”
Shen Zihao responded with a sneer and surveyed the apartment. Then he twitched his lips and said, “I thought you had left with brother to have a better life, but look at this place. It’s not much bigger than the bathroom in our house! Ah, Mom, can you really put up with this?”
Although he sounded like he was sympathizing with her, his expression was cold and lacked emotion.
Xia Yehua frowned and asked, “Zihao, you are still upset with me? ”
Shen Zihao replied with a dismissive wave of his hand. “Why would I? What is there to be upset about? Upset with you for abandoning Dad and I? In fact, I should thank you. If it weren’t for you leaving me with the Shen family, the heir of the Shen family would be him and I’d be a mere actor.”
The way he had insulted Shen Liangchuan made Qiao Lian’s blood boil. She could feel the veins in her temple throbbing.
Xia Yehua reprimanded him, “Shut your mouth! You can’t speak about your brother like that!”
Shen Zihao shrugged and said, “Fine, fine, I will say no more about your beloved son. Ha…”
Then he swiftly changed the topic, “I haven’t had breakfast, is there any food left?”
Xia Yehua followed the change of topic and said, “Of course, Zihao, this is your home too, help yourself.”
Shen Zihao shot Shen Liangchuan a provocative look and, without saying a word, he walked into the living room.
Shen Liangchuan and Qiao Lian followed behind him.
Xia Yehua hurriedly went into the kitchen and shortly after served him a bowl of Yangchun noodles, which she had prepared. “Ziahao, as a child you used to like the Yangchun noodles that I cooked. Come have some.”
Shen Zihao got up off the sofa, behaving like he was the king of the house, and strode slowly into the dining room.
He took one glance at the bowl of Yangchun noodles and an expression of disdain spread across his face.
With a smirk, he suddenly reached for the bowl of noodles and lifted it.
