<h4>Chapter 1049: Do Not Harm My Child (12)</h4>
Her heart turned a little cold.
The fact was that, ever since she had found out she was pregnant, her determination to leave him had started to waver.
That was the reason why, when they had met this time, she had not been too cold nor kept an excessive distance from him.
It was because deep down in her heart, she still had hopes for the two of them.
But in all this time, Shen Liangchuan had not said a word about her going back to him.
Hence she hadn’t mentioned it either.
And now she was pregnant.
Was he going to maintain his silence?
Could it possible be... that the matter of Soul Fighter, which had been weighing heavily on his mind, would never ever go away?
Would the two of them never be able to go back to how they had been before?
Qiao Lian clenched her fists tightly at this thought.
In her daze, she finally heard Shen Liangchuan speak, “Since you’re feeling unwell now, I’ll take you back to Suzhou. As for the filming, you shouldn’t continue.”
Qiao Lian’s pupils shrank at once when she heard these words.
Back to Suzhou...
It seemed that he really had no intention to take her back home.
So what did he want exactly by now staying in Suzhou, or extending his stay for the filming, or even shamelessly budging into her hotel room?
Perhaps it was her pregnancy that made her rather short-fused.
All the grievances she had harbored over this period of time seemed to be looking for an outlet.
She took in a deep breath, seemingly cold all of a sudden, as she said, “Ok.”
Shen Liangchuan detected that sudden change and threw a nce in her direction, having no idea what was going on.
–
In the hospital, after Qiao Lian had been discharged, the doctor entered the room and walked up to Lu Nanze.
The doctor said, “She woke up in time. It looks like fate has it that the child should live. I did not continue, in fear that she might feel something’s amiss.”
Lu Nanze nodded. “You did well. It wouldn’t be good to rm her.”
But it was a crucial point
Shen Liangchuan was here now and if he came to know that Qiao Lian was pregnant...
Even if she had lost the baby!
From what he knew of Shen Liangchuan, he was sure that the man would immediately, even if it meant having to use force, take Qiao Lian home with him and never let her leave him again.
Something like that must not happen.
At the optimum moment to get rid of the baby, the one thing that could not happen was to let Shen Liangchuan discover its existence.
Hence, today had not been the right time to force their way through.
Nevermind, they had time still.
His gaze fell on the car that was now slowly making its way out of the parking.
He was now in Hengdian because of this child.
No hurry, no hurry.
–
Qiao Lian had been injured.
Shen Liangchuan’s initial intention had been to stop her from filming immediately and take her back to Suzhou.
But Qiao Lian became stubborn and insisted onpleting the filming before leaving.
It was an advertisement to begin with, so there weren’t that many scenes she had to film.
Instead, it had been because Shen Liangchuan had high standards and demanded re-shootings all the time—therefore dying progress.
In a fit of anger seemingly directed at no particr person, Qiao Lian requested to finish the retakes of all her scenes.
The fact was that many of the following fighting segments were shot using a double. All they needed now was a few close-up shots of her face.
This took another two days in Hengdian before the filming for all of Qiao Lian’s segments waspleted.
She then decided to return to Suzhou the following day.
The night before she left, the director suddenly called for a meeting.
Qiao Lian did not attend this meeting, but her junior assistant did.
When the assistant came back that evening, her face was ashen. “Sister Qiao, did you know? What had happened to you then was not an ident at all. It was Qiao Yiyi’s plot!”
