You Are My Unforgettable Love

Hadn’t they said that Best Actor Shen had gone to the changing room?!

Why was he still in the powder room?!

Qiao Lian exchanged a desperate glance with the junior assistant and both of them simultaneously lowered their heads, like obedient children.

They shuffled their feet and moved back to the doorway.

Once they had reached the doorway, she cleared her throat and the junior assistant opened the door with the slightest motion. With a swish, she was gone.

Just as Qiao Lian was about to do the same, Shen Liangchuan suddenly spoke. “Hook up with male idols?”

Her body stiffened.

She immediately looked up and their eyes met.

At once, Qiao Lian had the urge to cry.

Why had they found themselves in such a situation?

Given what had happened, shouldn’t they both have cried when they finally saw each other? Shouldn’t they be feeling bitter and sad?

But what was this awkwardness and embarrassment about?

Qiao Lian cast her gaze down and cleared her throat, willing herself to handle this logically. She looked up at Shen Liangchuan and said, “Emmm… have you been sleeping well?”

“Uh-huh.” Shen Liangchuan replied, “Very well.”

Qiao Lian sighed with relief. She had always been worried about him overworking himself.

Her gaze wandered around the room awkwardly and then fell on the blank wall behind him. “Emmm… is Mom doing well?”

“Not well.”

Surprised, she paused for a moment and asked, “What? Has her heart been causing trouble?”

“No, but ever since you left, I haven’t heard her laugh once.”

Qiao Lian felt a sharp pang of pain in her heart and she looked away. “It will be ok, there’s Nuannuan, who can take my place in keeping her company. She’ll be fine soon.”

A silence greeted that remark.

She paused and looked up. Shen Liangchuan was staring at her intently, looking like he wanted to say something but at the same time hesitating.

Puzzled, Qiao Lian asked, “What’s the matter?”

“Xia Nuannuan has been in a coma. The doctor says if she doesn’t wake up in two weeks, it’s likely that she’ll be in a permanently vegetative state.”

Qiao Lian was shocked by the news she was hearing. “What happened? How did this happen?”

Shen Liangchuan pointed to the sofa and said, “Take a seat.”

Not taking her eyes off him, she walked to the sofa and sat down as she was told.

Shen Liangchuan then summarized everything that had happened.

At the end of his story, Qiao Lian hit the sofa with her palm angrily. “This tr*mp, Mei Feng! And that old fart, Shen Xiu!”

She creased her brow as she teared up. “Nuannuan’s child… They’re inhuman! Why did they have to harm the child?!”

Perhaps it was because she was pregnant herself that she was extremely sensitive about things related to children.

Shen Liangchuan looked at her steadily and quietly.

Now, this was the Qiao Lian he knew.

He frowned.

After Qiao Lian got over the initial shock, she looked at Shen Liangchuan and asked, “So you’ve returned to the Shen family as a way to avenge Shen Zihao?”

Shen Liangchuan nodded.

Immediately, Qiao Lian said with cold determination, “That’s right. Shen Xiu’s greatest fear is that you became the head of the Shen Family, isn’t it? Well then do it! Now I see it clearly. If we had kept avoiding it, it would have never solved any problems, so we might as well attack! Rather than allow Shen Xiu to harass us over and over again! He thinks our family is an easy pushover.”

Shen Liangchuan’s heart softened at her every mention of “we” and “our.”

He nodded. “Indeed, we have to retaliate.”

With him repeating the word “we,” Qiao Lian suddenly snapped back to reality.

She immediately hung her head and said, “Aren’t you going to get changed?”

He replied with little expression, “Now that we’ve got family business out of the way, shouldn’t we be discussing this thing about hooking up with male idols?”

Qiao Lian: …!!
