Chapter 91

Chapter 91: They are In-Laws?! (1)

Qiao Lian’s body immediately froze.

She turned her head unbelievably and saw Shen Liangchuan’s strong complexion standing in front of her. On his face there was surprise. His eyes gazed at her, deep in thought, but they were also filled with alarm.

Qiao Lian asked with surprise, “Why are you here?”

As her sentence ended, she recalled the words Aunt Xia had just told her….

A thought suddenly popped up in her brain.

Aunt Xia had said her son had arrived.

Aunt Xia said that she wasn’t staying with her son.

On that rainy night, she hadn’t been able to return home, but she had seen Aunt Xia being driven out in a car and the next moment, Caretaker Li had called her…

Everything seemed to show that her guess was right.

Qiao Lian’s eyes widened and her face was filled with unbelievability and amazement.

Aunt Xia was actually her mother-in-law!!

This realization made her feel as if her brain was short of oxygen, as she wasn’t able to accept the fact.

Hadn’t Aunt Xia said that her son treated his wife really well and even forgot about her?

When had Shen Liangchuan treated her well?

If it hadn’t been for these words, Qiao Lian’s reporter’s instinct would have noticed that something was wrong with all these coincidences.

While she was still in shock, she once again heard Shen Liangchuan’s alarmed voice, “Speak, why are you here?”

His cold-as-ice question violently dragged Qiao Lian back into reality.

She looked up and was met with his freezing cold gaze.

Qiao Lian shivered, and in the midst of things she suddenly realized what Shen Liangchuan meant. He had thought… that because she hadn’t managed to get news about him, she changed her target to Aunt Xia.

This thought caused her heart to swell with pain suddenly. It felt as if she was being pricked by a needle and she felt a piercing pain.

Before she was able to explain herself, Xia Yehua had already shouted, “Unfilial son, let go of Xiao Qiao!”

Xiao Qiao?

Shen Liangchuan’s gaze sunk.

As this familiar yet unfamiliar nickname was called out by Xia Yehua, he was left momentarily in a trance.

Taking this chance, Qiao Lian finally escaped his grab, which had loosened. She moved her arm, which felt sore due to his tight grab, and looked at Xia Yehua once again.

Xia Yehua continued, “Xiao Qiao, didn’t you want to interview Shen Liangchuan? Quick! With me around today, I won’t let him bully you!”

After she finished her words, she then looked fiercely at Shen Liangchuan. “This is the young friend I told you about. Shen Liangchuan, if you dare to bully Xiao Qiao, don’t blame me for being harsh!”

Qiao Lian’s heart, that had just been hurt by Shen Liangchuan, felt as if there was a sudden warmth that went past it.

She was a reporter, thus, every time Shen Liangchuan saw her, he was going to think that she had something up her sleeves.

However, Aunt Xia knew very well that she was a reporter and digging for the news of Shen Liangchuan, and still she had chosen to give her her trust. Aunt Xia had even allowed her to enter her house to meet Shen Liangchuan in person.

One filled with suspicion and the other filled with trust.

At that moment, their attitudes towards her formed a great contrast.

If Aunt Xia knew about her identity, would she still trust her so much?

Qiao Lian clenched her fist, her heart was a jumbled mess. “Auntie… It’s alright, I’ll take my leave.”

She picked up her bag and hurriedly ran towards the door.

She didn’t want to lose a friend that she had finally made.

However, just as she reached the door, it was pushed open by Caretaker Li from the outside. Seeing Qiao Lian, Caretaker Li asked in surprise, “Madam, why are you here?”
