You Are My Unforgettable Love - Chapter 428

Chapter 428: 428

“Auntie Li has served me all her life . She’s not been fortunate enough to enjoy a good life and, on the contrary, has suffered along with me . When we left the Shen Family home eight years ago without much money in our pocket, the three of us lived with 30 dollars a day . We couldn’t even afford meat . ”

Auntie Li and Xia Yehua started to reminisce about that time in their lives .

As they chatted, the topic came back to Song Yuanxi .

“… That child was painful to watch, so obedient and mature for her age . And she’s still the same after all these years . Everyone in the family knows—when there’s trouble, Yuanxi will help! Ms . Yuanxi said that she came from a difficult environment and now that she is well off, she’ll help others as much as possible . ”

After reflecting on the past, Auntie Li concluded, “Ms . Yuanxi is really kind-hearted . ”

Xia Yehua nodded and remarked, “Xiao Qiao, it was wrong of her to suspect you that time . But I hope you don’t hold a grudge against her . She’s an orphan and we are her only family . ”

Qiao Lian’s expression froze on hearing this . However, she nodded in agreement .

Indeed, she would hold no grudge against Song Yuanxi, if Song Yuanxi had not been the perpetrator .

At about half past ten, Xia Yehua got tired and went to bed .

Qiao Lian waited up for Shen Liangchuan to return .

At eleven, there was still no sign of Shen Liangchuan and his cell phone had been turned off .

Qiao Lian anxiously waited as she lay on the bed .

Finally, he came in through the bedroom door late at night .

The coldness in his body language was unmistakable .

Qiao Lian immediately asked, “Why are you home so late? Have you found out anything?”

The skies were still dark, so she turned on the bedside lamp .

The diffused yellow light filled the room and fell on Shen Liangchuan .

He was like a solitary passerby in the dark, lonely and full of sorrows . He seemed to be shackled by invisible burdens that weighed heavily on his shoulders .

For unknown reasons, she perceived a feeling of melancholy within him .

The iciness in his eyes made her shudder as he looked at her blankly .

She widened her eyes and inquired cautiously, “Shen Liangchuan?”

Then, as though her voice had made him suddenly realize who she was, he snapped back to the present . His eyes focused on her .

Before Qiao Lian could speak again, he suddenly took a step forward and pulled her into his embrace .

The coldness of his shirt could be felt through her thin pajamas, causing her to shudder once more . But sensing his loneliness in that moment, she did not speak . Instead, she reached out her arms to embrace his in an attempt to provide some solace .

Then, she heard Shen Liangchuan speak, “Xiao Qiao, I’m so glad you’re okay . ”

Xiao Qiao…

It was a name Shen Liangchuan seldom used to address her . But suddenly, it seemed familiar coming from him .

She lost herself in this moment of quietness and as she did so, his embrace tightened gradually, as though he was afraid of letting her go .

She had never seen this side of Shen Liangchuan .

But she could only keep holding him like that .

She lost track of the time that passed before she sensed some warmth returning to him .

Finally, he released his embrace and removed his jacket . Placing it on the sofa and with his back to Qiao Lian, he finally spoke, “I went to look for Yuanxi earlier on . ”

Qiao Lian immediately sat up .

It made sense that Shen Liangchuan would question her after finding out about the 200 000 .

But was it her?
