Chapter 772 - He Is Soul Fighter (6) (2/2)

Shen Liangchuan pursed his lips.

She reached out to grab his arm, asking, “Did it have anything to do with me?”

“No,” his answer was quick. Too quick. As though he was anxious to put an end to that idea.

But it was too obvious. How could it have nothing to do with her?

She bit her lip and continued, “If it had nothing to do with me, then why did Song Yuanxi insist that I’m her enemy?”

Shen Liangchuan turned away sharply and, after a moment, turned back to look at her.

She could see the struggle in his eyes.

She kept her gaze steadily on him, hoping for an answer.

However, Shen Liangchuan pulled his chin taut and replied after a moment of silence, “She misunderstood.”

Misunderstood?

Surely, the whole matter from eight years ago was a misunderstanding.

She had done nothing!

She had never even seen Soul Fighter. How could she have done anything to harm him?

Qiao Lian took a step forward and started to speak, but she saw that Shen Liangchuan had suddenly bent over to pick his towel up. As he did so, he said, “I’m going to take a shower.”

He strode into the washroom and shut the door.

She was left standing outside, staring at the bathroom door.

Suddenly, she felt terribly helpless. Why was it that he simply refused to talk about certain things?

Was it so difficult to tell her the truth?

She took a deep breath and hung her head. Then she walked to the bed and sat down.

–

Shen Liangchuan was in the shower for more than half an hour.

The look on Qiao Lian’s face just then kept coming back to him.

He couldn’t face her.

About the matter from eight years ago…

He took a deep breath. Eventually, he wrapped the towel around his waist and walked out of the bathroom.
