Chapter 1288 - End Game (28)

After saying these words, she glanced at him nervously.

She knew that he had avoided this game like plague after Soul Fighter’s death.

But this was also their dream and passion.

He had never shown any interest in being a part of this.

Except when she could no longer go on because of her hand. He had gone on stage to help her.

However, this time…

King was coming at them aggressively with his team.

It was obvious from the game yesterday that King had not given his best. But even then, it had been a really tough fight for her.

Without Shen Liangchuan, she could not guarantee a win for CQ.

She wanted him to come on board, but at the same time she didn’t want to force him. Hence, she had not said a word in all this time.

But now, she wondered if he would agree.

She looked at him steadily. After a moment, he suddenly got onto his feet and started to change out of his clothes.

Her heart sank at once.

It had always been like this. When he was unhappy, he would change and leave. He would leave her alone in the villa, staring blankly and wondering what she had done wrong.

Was he unhappy now?

Was he annoyed at Soul Fighter’s matter again?

Ultimately, could he not leave the matter behind him and just be together with her?

She hung her head as these thoughts crossed her mind.

She could not force him. After all, it was she who had left the club at the time, causing Soul Fighter’s accident and death.

So what right did she have to ask Shen Liangchuan to leave these things behind him and fight hand-in-hand with her?

She bit her lip. Because she was pregnant, she was exceptionally emotional.

Hence, she was exceptionally saddened by his silent rejection. Biting her lip, her eyes turned bloodshot.

Then she saw Shen Liangchuan walk towards the door.

She wondered if she should try and stop him, if she should have a chat with him. At this point, he spoke, “Are you coming?”

Qiao Lian: ??

She looked up, turned around and stared at him in great surprise. “What?”

He looked at her teary eyes helplessly and said with some hesitation, “Are you not coming with me?”

She asked, “Going out for…?”

“Shopping.”

She was stunned by his words.

Shopping for what exactly?

It was late, what did he want to buy?

The next moment, his deep and attractive voice continued, “Didn’t you say you need me? Don’t be petty, you can at least buy me a keyboard and a mouse?”

Qiao Lian looked up as soon as she heard these words and stared at him with an expression of disbelief.

This would mean… he meant…

He agreed?!

She got to her feet in a flash.

Shen Liangchuan was shocked by her sudden movement.

He quickly walked over, embraced her and said, “You’re pregnant, don’t make sudden forceful movements like that.”

But the next moment, Qiao Lian had circled her arms around his waist.

She buried her face in his chest and held him tightly.

He lowered his gaze, looking at the top of her head.

Her silky smooth hair brushed against his face, causing a ticklish sensation.

He smiled faintly as he heard her say, “Zi Chuan, you’re the best!”

He burst out laughing helplessly.

She looked up at him with a red nose, her bloodshot eyes were misty but lit up. Then she said a little shyly, “Let’s go, Zi Chuan. I’ll buy you the best keyboard and mouse with the club’s budget.”
