Chapter 103 Chapter 103 Li Meng lied
The rain was still falling, and the dim street lights shone through the dense raindrops and through the car window, hitting Shen Qinghuan's absent-minded eyelashes and her slightly pale little face.
She remained silent, and the atmosphere in the small carriage became frozen.
Zhou Sinian felt inexplicably irritated.
He hadn't felt this way for a long time, and this feeling of being out of control made his anxiety even stronger.
A forty-minute drive.
Zhou Sinian parked the car in the underground garage, and the two got out of the car one after the other.
Zhou Sinian went to the back of the car and took the luggage out of the trunk. Shen Qinghuan reached out to take it, but was rejected by him. "I am stronger than you, just follow me."
Shen Qinghuan: "..." She had no choice but to follow Zhou Sinian and hurried into the elevator.
Li Meng lives on the 16th floor and Zhou Sinian lives on the 22nd floor. The two are real neighbors.
When the elevator reached the sixteenth floor, Zhou Sinian carried his luggage and walked out with Shen Qinghuan.
Thinking of the embarrassment of the last encounter, Shen Qinghuan hesitated, pressed the doorbell a few times, and then stood at the door and waited patiently.
One minute passed, two minutes, three minutes...
Huh? The doorbell rang loudly! Couldn't she hear it? Or was she just tired from last night?
There was no response from inside, but this time she didn't feel comfortable opening the door and walking in rashly.
Zhou Sinian turned his head to glance at Shen Qinghuan, the corners of his mouth curled up almost imperceptibly, and he said nonchalantly: "How about you go to my place first? After daybreak, you can contact Miss Li again?"
Shen Qinghuan thought about it and had to agree. She couldn't just stand at the door waiting for Li Meng.
"Will it bother you?"
"I'm the only one at home, you know that. Besides, I'm resting today and don't need to go to the hospital." Zhou Sinian's mouth curled up slightly, and he couldn't suppress it no matter how hard he tried.
Shen Qinghuan was stunned, her pupils dilated. She didn't know! She knew nothing!
Zhou Siyan lowered his gaze, but worried that Shen Qinghuan would refuse, he added casually, "My house is on the other side of this building. It's twice as big as Miss Li's, so you can live there."
Shen Qinghuan: "..."
Is he quietly showing off his wealth?
The housing prices here are not cheap at all. The apartment that Li Meng lives in is only more than 90 square meters. She spent more than one million yuan on the down payment alone, and then she had to pay more than 10,000 yuan in mortgage every month.
Shen Qinghuan had no other choice but to temporarily return home with Zhou Sinian.
This was Shen Qinghuan's first time at Zhou Sinian's house. His little home was exactly as she had imagined. The decor was typical of a straight man, with black, white, and gray. There was a gray sofa, gray and white double curtains, and black and white furniture...
Seeing Shen Qinghuan standing at the door, Zhou Sinian smiled and said, "Don't be shy, just treat this place as your own home!"
Shen Qinghuan hummed softly, then walked forward.
"I'll put your luggage in the guest room first." Zhou Sinian said as he dragged her suitcase to the guest room.
Shen Qinghuan was stunned for a moment, then quickly followed, saying somewhat embarrassedly, "No need to put it in the guest room, just put it in the living room. I'll go to her place later when I contact Li Meng."
Zhou Sinian lowered his eyes, subtly hiding the loneliness in his eyes, and his face was still smiling gently, "Alright! Then put it in the living room first, and I'll take you down after you contact Miss Li."
Shen Qinghuan: "I'm really sorry to bother you."
Zhou Sinian: "You're welcome."
Shen Qinghuan: "Then..." She stood at the door, hesitant to speak.
Zhou Sinian: "You should rest early!"
Shen Qinghuan: "You should rest early too!"
…
The door of the guest room was slowly closed, isolating it from the outside world.
She thought she would be exhausted both physically and mentally, but after a whole night of tossing and turning, not only her body, but her spirit was still active, and her mind was full of what Jiang's mother said to her in the hospital.
They asked her to divorce Jiang Yu and move out of the ward immediately, but they never thought about where she would live after moving out of the marital home.
Maybe she was not important from the beginning!
Shen Qinghuan rubbed his hands and picked up the phone from the bedside table and sent a message to Li Meng: Meng, after you see this message, please call me back.
Click send!
After lying in bed for a while, Shen Qinghuan felt thirsty. She struggled for a long time before reluctantly getting up. She planned to quietly go to the kitchen to get some water, otherwise she really couldn't fall asleep.
The lights in the living room were off. Fortunately, it was already dawn and the rain outside had stopped.
Faint light seeped in through the gauze curtains, dispelling a little of the darkness.
Zhou Sinian must have boiled some water after she returned to her room. She saw a kettle in the open kitchen with disposable cups next to it.
Shen Qinghuan poured himself some water, and after drinking it, he felt his throat felt a little better.
However, when she was about to go back to the guest room, the bedroom door, which had been tightly closed, suddenly opened from the inside.
Shen Qinghuan watched Zhou Sinian walk out from inside, her heart suddenly skipped a beat, and she subconsciously wanted to hide.
But just as this thought came to her mind, she heard the man's concerned question: "Why are you up? Are you not used to sleeping here?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Qinghuan quickly shook her head: "No." The bedding in the guest rooms is extremely expensive and very comfortable to sleep in. It is many times better than living on the streets. What reason does she have to dislike it?
"That is..."
"I'm just a little thirsty, so I got up to drink some water. You, weren't you asleep? Why are you up too?"
Zhou Sinian curled his lips slightly, "I'll get up and drink some water too."
Shen Qinghuan laughed awkwardly. She wouldn't believe such an unreliable excuse. She said, "Then drink slowly. I'm going back to my room to sleep."
Zhou Sinian raised his eyebrows, "Okay."
Shen Qinghuan felt like he was running away in a panic.
After returning to the room, she couldn't fall asleep. She tossed and turned, looking out the window from time to time. The sky was still as dim as before, and it seemed to have started raining again.
She picked up her phone and looked at it. It was seven o'clock.
Just as he was about to put it back, the phone suddenly rang. Shen Qinghuan immediately picked it up and put it to his ear.
Hearing the familiar voice, at that moment, her eyes couldn't help but feel sore, "Where are you?"
Li Meng was stunned for a moment, and obviously noticed that Shen Qinghuan was in a bad mood. She quickly asked, "Huanhuan, what's wrong with you? Did something happen?"
"I……"
Her throat was choked and she couldn't speak for a moment.
Li Meng took a deep breath, thought for a moment and said, "Where are you? I'll go find you."
Shen Qinghuan seemed to suddenly wake up after hearing this, and immediately covered her mouth. She must not tell Li Meng that she was lying on the bed in the guest room of Zhou Sinian's house. She really couldn't say such words.
"No, you don't have to come look for me. I'll come look for you. Are you home now?"
If Li Meng was home alone, she could pack her luggage and leave immediately. If there was no one at home, she could also do the same. What she was most afraid of was that there were other people at her home.
Li Meng turned her head to look at the man who was still sleeping beside her, and said without hesitation: "I'm at home, why did you come over?"
"Right away! I'll be there right away!" Shen Qinghuan couldn't hide the joy in her heart, almost overflowing from her eyes. She smiled and said, "Then I'll hang up first. I'll come find you later."
Hearing the shrill busy tone coming from the phone, Li Meng quickly got up.
Pick up the clothes scattered on the ground one by one.
Just as she was about to put on her clothes, a pair of strong arms wrapped around her slender waist from behind. A man's low and sexy voice came into her ears: "You want to go back so early?"
Li Meng's body stiffened and she turned around without leaving a trace.
She raised her chin, calmly staring at the man so close to her, then slowly pried his hands apart and said seriously, "Shi Beichuan, we agreed at the beginning that we would only address our physical needs and not discuss anything else."
Shi Beichuan choked hard. He finally wanted to be serious for once, but was told by a woman that his efforts throughout the night were just for simple physiological needs!
He pulled the corners of his mouth, and the anger in his chest wanted to burst out, but he still held it back.
After all, what Li Meng said was absolutely right.
When Li Meng suggested that what they had was just physical needs, he agreed.
Thinking of this, Shi Beichuan couldn't help but feel a little irritated, and said with a sullen face: "Okay! We agreed! Physiological needs, if you insist on leaving, then I won't keep you. Be careful on the road."
Li Meng said "hmm" coldly and continued to put on her clothes.
She didn't even glance at Shi Beichuan again. She just wanted to rush back as soon as possible to avoid being exposed by Shen Qinghuan for her lie.
Shi Beichuan couldn't understand why there weren't many men as outstanding, handsome, and gentle as him in the vast Nancheng area! But Li Meng only used him to satisfy her physical needs.
If this isn't a waste of resources, what is?
If he has to choose, it should be him who chooses others. When will it be someone else's turn to choose him?
Shi Beichuan was full of anger, but he couldn't find a place to vent it, so he could only sit on the edge of the bed, staring at Li Meng changing clothes without blinking.
Li Meng was so busy getting dressed that she probably didn't even glance at him.
