She Becomes Glamorous After The Engagement Annulment Ⅱ Chapter 790

Chapter 790

Chapter 790: He Followed Closely Like a Shadow (14)

Qiao Lian looked at him intently.

A sense of sorrow hung heavily between them.

Qiao Lian suddenly felt helpless.

Shen Liangchuan stood there, towering before her, as though he was the one who could shield her from the winds and storms.

But right now, she felt like something was getting in between them. She felt like she could not get through that barrier, unable to enter his heart completely.

Disappointed, she nodded.

She walked to the door and looked back, asking, “Your dinner…”

“I’ll order some takeaway meal.”

She nodded again.

Qiao Lian took another look at him and said, “Rest early tonight.”

“Okay.”

Without another word after this, she turned and left the office.

–

The room instantly became silent.

The entire floor was empty except for his office. It glowed with the weak light of his lamp.

He felt exhausted as he sat down on the chair. His gaze fell on the computer screen.

He couldn’t figure out why it was that whenever he closed his eyes, the vision of Soul Fighter’s face, marred by blood and flesh, would appear. His mind would go into turmoil and he couldn’t get to sleep.

On top of that…

He wanted to go home.

But whenever he thought of Soul Fighter, he just couldn’t bring himself to speak.

He knew these were his own inner demons. He wanted to sort himself out before going home.

The last thing that he wanted was to repeat what happened the other day, when he pushed Qiao Lian away.

At this thought, he sat back on the sofa, feeling that every ounce of strength had left his body.

After a while, his cell phone rang.

He picked up the phone and heard Qiao Lian’s voice on the other end saying, “I’ve just ordered food for you. They’ll deliver it in a bit. Don’t forget to have your meal.”

His heart felt a certain warmth as he softly said, “Okay.”

“Take good care of yourself.”

“Uh huh.”

“I’m hanging up now.”

Listening to her voice, he suddenly called out, “Xiao Qiao.”

She paused. “Yes?”

“I’ll be home tonight.”

At once, he could hear the happiness in her voice as she said, “Okay, I’ll wait for you.”

Shen Liangchuan smiled after she hung up.

He looked at the computer screen and then turned it off.

He thought he must be crazy, to let Soul Fighter affect his life like this.

He stood up and picked up his jacket. Just as he was about to leave, he saw the delivery man walk in to deliver the food.

He frowned as he received the package.

The delivery man smiled and said, “Sir, our restaurant has included a complimentary appetizer.”

Shen Liangchuan’s pupils shrank at these words.

Suddenly, as though realizing something, he looked down at the meal package and opened it. He saw that… the appetizer was Chameleon Plant!

Chameleon Plant.

Shen Liangchuan narrowed his eyes at once. Finally, he felt that something wasn’t right.

First, it was that shadow at the graveyard, then, it was the Chameleon Plant. These things had stirred his emotions in the last few days.

Because it made him feel as though Soul Fighter was just next to him.

And this feeling was too nerve-racking.

It wasn’t normal.

This Chameleon Plant wasn’t normal.

Once he figured this out, he suddenly looked up and realized that the delivery man was gone.

His pupils shrank at once.

Dropping the package on the ground, he dashed towards the elevator.

Running to the elevator, he saw that it was already on the way down.

He hurriedly dashed to the stair exit and started running down the stairs.

When he reached the ground floor, he saw the delivery man and hastened his steps to catch up.
