Chapter 816 - Who Was That Person? (2) (1/2)

Then a warm and dizzying kiss landed on her lips.

Qiao Lian was stunned for a moment, but this was followed by a rush of happiness.

Of course, she was aware that Shen Liangchuan had not been himself lately.

While she did not know what she could do for him, she had tried her best, however little it may help.

It seemed like he had made some headway in his affairs and was proactively seeking intimacy from her.

She returned his kiss.

An innocent, playful kiss that slowly deepened till the two intertwined bodies rose in heat and passion, softly moaning with expressions of desires for each other.

The release was freeing and satisfying. At the end of it Shen Liangchuan lay spent, next to Qiao Lian.

Perhaps it was the sleeping pills, or it could have been the comforting harmony he felt at this point, but Shen Liangchuan’s eyelids grew heavy and soon fell shut.

He was like a satiated beast, completely relaxed and finally asleep.

Qiao Lian, on the other hand, lay next to him with her eyes wide open, staring into his good-looking face, lost in thoughts.

How had Soul Fighter died?

Why wouldn’t Shen Liangchuan tell her anything?

She turned slightly and stared steadily at the ceiling above her.

It was noon now, and she had never had the habit of taking afternoon naps.

Then she suddenly heard a low murmur coming from the sleeping man next to her, “Soul Fighter, I’m sorry.”

Sorry…

How much guilt was this man harboring that even in his dreams he sought forgiveness?

Suddenly, she felt a stabbing pain in her heart.

It was painful, so painful.

Shen Liangchuan’s sleep was interrupted by the ringing of the cell phone.

He was woken by the ringing and vibration next to his ear. For a moment he stared at the ceiling blankly, feeling lost in time and space.

It had been too long since he slept soundly, so it took him a while to recall where he was.

In his dazed state, the ringing stopped.
