Qiao Lian looked at Shen Liangchuan in confusion and surprise.
The street lights shone through the open car window and reflected on his handsome face. After hearing Qiao Lian’s words, he slowly looked up without any exnation and only said, “Get in the car.”
Qiao Lian settled into the passenger seat obediently.
As soon as she sat down, she was reminded of how she had been bleeding heavily there yesterday. Immediately, she looked down guiltily, where she found that a red seat cushion had been ced there.
This colour did not match the interior of the car at all.
Furthermore, its bright-red colour was rather simr to blood.
So, was he trying to say that she did not need to bother about dirtying the seat cushion anymore?
Her lips twitched and she cleared her throat ufortably. Only then did she look at Shen Liangchuan and ask, “Er, how long did you wait?”
Shen Liangchuan answered indifferently, “Not long. I happened to eat nearby.”
Exactly what could he have eaten nearby that could have taken up to four and a half hours?
She wanted to continue asking, however, she suddenly noticed that his ears were slightly red.
Was he... embarrassed?
She instantly froze.
She couldn’t help feeling a surge of warmth inside her heart.
Yesterday, he had taken her to Mo Xicheng’s birthday party. When they had reached home at night, he had poured her a cup of brown sugar water, and today, he had speciallye there to send her home...
All these made her heart beat faster uncontrobly.
If a man treats a woman so nicely, does it mean...
No, she should not jump to conclusions.
Lowering her head hastily, she tried to suppress her inner thoughts. However, she could not help but smile.
“What do you want to eat?” His voice rang in her ears all of a sudden.
Qiao Lian was stunned for a moment. She took a while to realize Shen Liangchuan was talking to her.
She said hurriedly, “It’s okay. I can just eat at home.”
It was already 10 p.m. It was a bit toote to go eat dinner now.
As she thought about this, she felt rather conflicted and continued, “Er, next time, you don’t have to wait until thiste...”
Shen Liangchuan gave her a stare, which made her shut her mouth instantly.
He looked ahead very seriously, looking extremely charismatic. “A girl should not go home at these hours. It’s not safe.”
His caring words made Qiao Lian’s cheeks burn once again.
She wanted to say something, but she did not know how to express it. Hence, she could only lower her head and mutter, “Thank you.”
“You are wee.” Then, he asked, “Are you still feeling unwell?”
Taken aback, Qiao Lian took a moment to react. He was asking about her “Aunt Flo”, so she answered quickly, “It’s fine. Normally, it’s worse on the first day. I feel much better on the second day.”
“Oh.”
His lukewarm answer made the whole car silent again.
As Qiao Lian pressed her lips together, she suddenly thought of something and said, “Er, I did not get pregnant this month. I will continue to work hard next month.”
After hearing her words, his hand holding the steering wheel paused for a while.
After a few moments of silence, an “oh” could be heard.
Qiao Lian was feeling embarrassed about what she had just said, so she hadn’t noticed the change in his emotions.
Her mind started to wander.
Pregnant...
Logically, it should be easy for a woman to get pregnant.
They had even calcted her ovtion period, so the sess rate should be high. However, why was she not pregnant?
With disappointment, she ced her hand on her lower abdomen. Just when she was in a daze, Shen Liangchuan said, “Why did you finish working sote?”
When he started talking about this, Qiao Lian was full of pent-up anger.
Immediately, she could not help butin under her breath, “It’s all because of Fan Jie!”
