Chapter 126 - 126 126 The Medicine (3)_1
?Chapter 126: Chapter 126 The Medicine (3)_1 Chapter 126: Chapter 126 The Medicine (3)_1 Liang Chen stood in front of the window for a long time, without moving and without any trace of fatigue.
The night outside the window grew deeper as it approached midnight.
…
Under the same night sky, in a building for exam review, Shen Liangnian was also not sleeping.
Shen Liangnian was sitting on the couch, a television was switched on in front of him, a movie was playing on it.
Shen Liangnian had muted the television, on the screen, there was a repeated segment where Jing Haohao was slowly walking closer from a far-off place.
In the room, only Shen Liangnian was present, his silence bordering on eerie, except for sporadic ticks from the wall-mounted European style clock.
Shen Liangnian was intently staring at the TV screen for a long time, then he slowly raised his hand, turned off the TV, leaned back in the couch and closed his eyes. After a while, he reached out, took his phone from beside him, brought it to his front, opened his eyes, found Qiao Wennuan’s number and dialed it. On the other end of the line, it seemed like Qiao Wennuan was waiting for his call, the phone only rang once before she picked up.
Shen Liangnian paused for a moment, saying, “Nuan, thank you for your help.”
“You’re welcome, Liangnian.” Qiao Wennuan’s soft voice came over from the other end of the line.
Shen Liangnian didn’t say anything else. He just gently hung up the phone.
He got up and walked onto the balcony, lit a cigarette, stared at the night sky without a hint of moonlight or stardust, and became lost in thought.
How did things suddenly escalate to this point?
He originally intended to cut ties with Qiao Wennuan… But in the end, he used her money to save his own company.
In this life, the hardest to repay is emotional debt and favors owed.
Now, he suddenly owed Qiao Wennuan double. Could he and her… still manage to sever ties?
…
After Liang Chen took Jing Haohao twice on that night, when Liang Chen returned to the villa at Half Mountain, he never spent the night in the study room again.
Sometimes Liang Chen returned home early, sometimes late, but for the most part, every time he returned, Jing Haohao was still awake.
When Liang Chen came back to the master bedroom, usually he first took a shower. Afterward, he might go to his study to handle the tasks he couldn’t finish at the office, or he might sit on the couch in the bedroom and watch some TV for a while. He didn’t communicate much with Jing Haohao, but every time he came home, Jing Haohao would instantly feel the air in the master bedroom becoming somewhat heavy, and she would either feign sleep on the bed, or sit on the balcony, lost in thought.
Liang Chen’s attitude towards Jing Haohao, can’t be considered good nor bad. Both of them go to bed at night, each keeping to their own side, neither paying attention to the other.
