You Are My Unforgettable Love - Chapter 207
Chapter 207: Shen Liangchuan, Do You Like Me? (7)
The residential building was so old, even the color of the cement stairs was exposed.
Small pieces of advertisements covered the entire wall, making it pitch-dark. Not only that, a rotten smell wafted in the air.
The old-fashioned incandescent light bulb gave out a dull yellow light from the roof.
The narrow corridor looked even more cramped now because of his tall stature.
Dressed impeccably in a suit and shiny leather shoes, Shen Liangchuan stood ever so lightheartedly. With one hand in his pocket and the other holding his cell phone, he seemed to be looking at something.
The dilapidated surroundings made him look rather out of place, but also accentuated his exquisite cheeks and handsome features.
Shen Liangchuan slowly looked up upon hearing her footsteps.
A glint of gloominess flashed across his dark eyes when he saw Qiao Lian.
He placed the phone in his pocket without any words and stared at her.
As their eyes met, Qiao Lian’s heart ached again in the tranquil surroundings.
Looking him in the eye, she wished to figure out what was going through his brain.
However, she realized that his gaze was too profound; so profound that it was such a joke to have thought that she knew him.
Throughout their month of marriage, she had been trying very hard to understand him and accommodate.
Even during the times when he had thrown tantrums out of nowhere, she had simply pushed through with gritted teeth.
But now, she suddenly felt very defeated and had lost all interest in figuring out his mind.
Forcing herself to direct her vision elsewhere, her eyes landed on the keys in her hand. She then walked up and went around him to open the door.
The gate opened and she walked in. He followed her consciously and entered the place with her.
Qiao Lian switched on the lights near the room’s door, not minding him.
When she turned around, she saw him analyzing the room with a frown on his face. He was obviously not pleased.
Of course… He was Best Actor Shen, the cream of the crop and a highly-regarded famous celebrity.
Meanwhile, she was a small, insignificant person, who lived in a cheaply rented room and was financially unstable.
How pathetic of her to believe that he had feelings for her, and to dream of becoming Cinderella!
She smiled bitterly and suppressed the surge of agony once again. She heard him say, “Did something happen at work again?”
She was stunned for a moment and only recovered after a while. He thought she was unhappy because of work?
Subconsciously, her grip tightened. Instead of explaining, she looked at him and changed the subject. “How did you find this place?”
“I have your personal information.”
It suddenly dawned on Qiao Lian.
When she signed the contract, she had filled in an extremely detailed document with her personal information and it seemed like she had written her address.
“Come back with me.” Standing at the entrance, Shen Liangchuan finally said in an authoritative tone after glancing at his watch impatiently.
Qiao Lian stopped walking. Seeing that he had no intention to take another step into the room after she turned back, she looked down and agreed nonchalantly.
There was a flash of shock on Shen Liangchuan’s face, as she was being rather cooperative.
After Shen Liangchuan finished putting on his sunglasses and mask, they headed downstairs and got into the car.
On the way home, Qiao Lian rested her head on the back seat and closed her eyes to pretend to sleep.
She really did not wish to say a word to him.
However, even though there was no conversation between them, she could feel a subtle gaze fixed on her.
The car stopped as they arrived at the villa.
She opened her eyes and got off the car. Then she proceeded upstairs.
Soon after she stepped into the master bedroom, she heard footsteps behind her, but she did not pay any more attention to it. Just when she was about to step forward, a pair of arms wrapped tightly around her waist. A familiar sense of masculinity surrounded her all of a sudden!
