Chapter 519: 519
Auntie Li provided the information . “She’s in the Yi De Fei Rehab Home in the suburbs . ”
Qiao Lian nodded to show she understood .
Then, she headed upstairs .
At the same time, in a hospital elsewhere…
Purple Fairy was looking in dismay at her thighs, that had been scalded and turned bright red . She was full of anger .
The scorching pain would at the most be temporarily relieved by the application of some ointment, but that wouldn’t get rid of the sting completely .
Ouch .
Apart from the pain, she could feel nothing else in her legs .
The burns on her thighs also meant that whenever she had clothes on, they would make contact with her skin and it would be inevitably agonizing and torturous .
Forget Chuan!
The infuriated Purple Fairy was determined to make her pay for this .
Her thoughts were interrupted by the sudden ringing of her cell phone . She picked it up and saw it was Sun Linan . She immediately answered in her sweetest voice, “How are you, Mr Sun?!”
Sun Linan’s voice came through the line . “How was the match today?”
“We didn’t have a problem . We made it to the grand final . ”
Sun Linan nodded on the other end of the line and added, “Okay, great . I will be there at the grand final . Your team must win this competition, no matter what . Do you understand?”
Purple Fairy gave him her word . “Don’t you worry . We won’t have a problem!”
–
Alone in the bedroom, Qiao Lian felt that unbidden sense of loneliness engulf her once again .
She pursed her lips .
After hesitating for a moment, she dialed Shen Liangchuan’s number .
Two rings . Someone picked up the line .
Shen Liangchuan’s resonant voice was heard saying, “Hello?”
Qiao Lian pursed her lips and said after a short pause, “It’s me . ”
“I know . ”
His deep voice was very different from before, from the croaking voice he had as an adolescent going through puberty .
It was like a person who had undergone rebirth to become resplendent and radiant .
Eight years ago, Qiao Lian would laugh at him every time she heard his voice coming through the cell phone .
Boys going through puberty never liked to talk very much because of how they sounded just before their voices broke .
Little had this boy known that whenever Qiao Lian heard his voice, she had felt a certain sense of comfort and security .
At that time, she had often wondered how Shen Liangchuan would sound after his voice broke, and whether it would take away that sense of familiarity she had with him .
And later on, she did hear his manly voice .
Mellow, rich and so fascinating . It was an attractive voice that she had fallen in love with .
So this was how Zi Chuan was after he had grown up .
Before she knew it, her eyes began to sting as tears formed .
Her vision blurred a little .
Qiao Lian immediately drew a tissue from the box to dry her eyes .
She was becoming quite awkward .
Obviously, she had questions for him, but why was it that the moment she heard his voice, her heart stung?
She bit her lip and said after a short pause, “When are you coming home?”
“I can’t be sure yet . ”
His words came with some hesitation .
Qiao Lian tightened her grip on the phone . A pause . “I wanted to ask you something . ”
Silence .
The silence was deafening, she was sure she would be able to hear a needle drop .
The silence at the other end of the line caused her heart to pound in her ears .
After what seemed like an eternity, but also as fast a thought, in the blink of an eye, the man spoke, “Ask . ”
Qiao Lian froze .
What was she going to ask?
Are you Zi Chuan?
The memorabilia on the third floor and the moves at the competition this morning were proof of his identity .
Did this question still make sense?
But since they had come to this point, Qiao Lian clenched her fists tightly .
She said after taking a deep breath, “I am Xiao Qiao”
