Chapter 803: He Followed Closely Like a Shadow (27)
Song Cheng hung his head and said, “Sometimes a sick person needs to be cheered up. Besides, if you don’t give them a heads-up and something happens to you suddenly, it would be really difficult for them to accept it.”
Shen Liangchuan finally realized there might be some misunderstanding and asked, “What are you talking about?”
Song Cheng looked up. His eyes were teary as he said, “Brother Shen, please tell me, what condition are you suffering from that you have to see the family physician in secret, avoiding Sister Qiao and Senior Madam like this? Is there no other way to get treated in the hospital? Do you wish to make an announcement?”
Shen Liangchuan was flabbergasted.
He grimaced and, after a moment, he stood up and said to the other man, “I think you can shut your mouth now.”
Then he looked at the family physician and said, “I need a prescription for some sleeping pills.”
Hence, Song Cheng thought, “did I misunderstand something?”
–
By the time Qiao Lian woke up, Shen Liangchuan was gone from her side again.
The skies were bright and it was a radiant day with a mild level of smog.
She washed up after getting out of bed. As she made her way downstairs, she saw that Xia Yehua was reading the newspaper. Qiao Yi was reading quietly.
She greeted Xia Yehua.
The woman spoke, “You didn’t sleep well last night? Shen Lianchuan said before he left that we were not to wake you, so that you can get some rest.”
Qiao immediately smiled and said , “Uh huh.”
It was 11 a.m. by the time they finished breakfast.
Shen Liangchuan had returned.
His mother and wife both looked at him with puzzled expressions and they asked, “Why are you back at this hour? Don’t you have to work?”
Actually, there was no work at all.
Shen Liangchuan nodded without speaking. His gaze fell on Qiao Lian and he saw that her face had turned rosy like a red apple, thanks to getting proper sleep. He was relieved.
Xia Yehua was already calling Auntie Li, who was in the kitchen, “Auntie Li, Liangchuan is home! Please cook lunch for him as well.”
“Got it!”
Auntie Li’s voice could be heard coming from the kitchen.
At once, the atmosphere in the living room became harmonious and warm.
But alas, this lovely atmosphere wasn’t meant to last. It was soon to be shattered.
The doorbell chimed. Auntie Li scurried to open the door. Following this, the housekeeper gasped in surprise and said with disgust, “Why are you here?”
Qiao Lian and the rest of them lifted their gaze and looked at the uninvited guest.
Mei Feng was standing at the doorway with a wide smile plastered on her face. Behind her stood two bodyguards carrying large bags of visiting gifts.
She said in a modest manner, “Zihao’s mother, I’m here to apologize and make amends.”
As she said this, the two bodyguards took a step forward and brushed Auntie Li aside, so as to allow Mei Feng to walk in.
Observing their aggression, Qiao Lian frowned and stood up immediately. She placed herself in front of Xia Yehua.
Mei Feng’s gaze swept across the room as if to assess the place. Although she did not say a word, she looked at Xia Yehua with a mocking expression.
It seemed as if she was ridiculing her and saying: She may have lived in the Shen family’s luxurious residence in the past, but now, the mistress of the Shen family household was her, Mei Feng.
She was full of ill intentions, Xia Yehua’s pupils shrank at once. She told Mei Fend coldly, “Please leave.”
Mei Feng sighed and said, “Zihao’s mother, if there’s an issue, we can talk about it. I’m here to apologize on his father’s behalf. Look at these things. I heard that you’re not in good health, so I’ve bought these for you to strengthen your body.”
Xia Yehua’s face was frosty as she said, “There’s no need. I do not wish to see you. Don’t blame me for calling the police if you insist on staying.”
Mei Feng’s pupils shrank at these words.
Then she suddenly took a step towards Xia Yehua and dropped on her knees with a thud.
