C9 The Declaration of War for His First Love

"Sister-in-law, what a coincidence."

I turned around and didn't expect to meet Lih Youlan here.

"Youlan, what a coincidence." I smiled awkwardly.

Lih Youlan also smiled, "It is indeed a coincidence. I heard from Liu that Second Sister-in-law went back to her mother's house to stay for a few days. Why would she be here? Could it be that Second Sister-in-law knew that Liu was here and specially came over..."

Lih Shaojue was also here?

Lih Youlan's eyes revealed a look of contempt. From her words, she could tell that Lih Shaojue was not alone here. Moreover, the other party must be a woman. She was afraid that she thought that I was following Lih Shaojue to catch the adulterer.

Yesterday, I magnanimously said that I don't care about Lih Shaojue's matter, and now I am here to follow him. It is simply a slap in the face.

"No, I am here..."

Without waiting for me to explain, Lih Youlan smiles and pulls me towards the second floor. "Don't deny it. I will bring you to Liu."

If Lih Shaojue was really with some woman or doing something right now, I would simply be sending myself to my death.

Lih Youlan was trying to cause trouble.

Just how badly did she not want to see Zhao Nanqian?

She purposely told them in the hospital that Lih Shaojue's old lover had returned and that it was suspected that the old relationship had been rekindled.

And now she pulled me to look for Lih Shaojue. Isn't this asking for my own death?

"Youlan, I really didn't come to look for your second brother..."

Lih Youlan's hands are strong as she pull me to the door of a private room. A cunning light flashes across her eyes, "Second sister-in-law don't be afraid. Go in. Liu is inside."

I was pushed in by Lih Youlan. When I saw the person inside, I immediately stopped. Even the air froze in an instant.

I was looking around the clubhouse to look for someone. I didn't expect to see him here.

Qin Tianming heard the movement and looked up. His voice was as rough and hoarse as usual. "Mr. Lih..."

Seeing that it was me, he swallowed the rest of his words. A hint of surprise flashed across his eyes.

When they looked at each other, there was still a sour feeling in their hearts. It was like old aged vinegar. That sour feeling came out of their eyes and instantly turned red.

After a moment of surprise, he quickly withdrew his expression and sat down again. His hand touched the drawing board beside him and completely treated me as air.

His disregard caused an unnamed flame to rise in my heart. I quickly walked over and said in a stern voice, "What, pretending not to know each other again?"

My reaction was intense, but his expression was indifferent as if he was looking for an ordinary person to greet, "Young Madam Li."

What a good 'Young Madam Li'.

I was so angry that I laughed, "Since you called me Young Madam Li, then you should know that I am currently under the identity of 'Zhao Nanqian'. Didn't you love Zhao Nanqian? Why don't you ask where Zhao Nanqian has gone to?"

The last time I saw Qin Tianming, I didn't mention my current situation. Then how did he know that I am now 'Zhao Nanqian'?

Then he could only investigate.

Qin Tianming looked at me with a complicated expression and didn't say anything.

"Qin Tianming." I suddenly raised my voice and looked at the lifeless him. It was as if my heart was stuck in my chest, unable to breathe.

I lost control and grabbed his arm. "Tell me, do you have any difficulties? You lied to me, right? Qin Tianming, say something. If you really love Zhao Nanqian and she went missing, how could you hold back your anger? Aren't you afraid that I will do something to her and hurt her? I have known you for more than ten years. I know you better than anyone else. "

We grew up in an orphanage together as childhood sweethearts.

Although we never said 'like', we had a tacit understanding. He had promised to protect me for the rest of my life.

Zhao Nanqian was full of tricks. Maybe it was because she played some tricks that Qin Tianming would be with her.

Yes, it must be so.

I have found a good reason for him. As long as he admits it, I can throw myself into his arms at all costs.

"Young Madam Li, please behave yourself." He tightened the space between his eyebrows, as if he had lost his patience. He pried open my fingers and said in a serious tone, "I don't need to lie to you. I will repeat myself once more. The person I love is Nanqian. I only treat you as my younger sister. You know me and I know you. You won't do anything to Nanqian. Nanqian loved to play and Lih Shaojue flirted with girls. She must have gone to play somewhere out of anger. Come back when you've had enough fun. I'll give you a piece of advice. You are not Nanqian. When Nanqian comes back, everything will be exposed. You should leave Lih family as soon as possible. "

"Sister?" I looked at him in panic and smiled. Only I know the pain behind that smile.

I was hysterical in exchange for the word younger sister.

"Nansheng, I'm sorry for making you misunderstand for so long." He said, "I'm very happy that you can come back safely. If you don't mind, I can be your brother."

His apologetic tone was like a sharp arrow shooting towards me, piercing right into my heart.

"Who wants you to be my big brother?" I growled, "Do you know where I spent this year and how I spent it? I was imprisoned by Zhao Nanqian for a year. In the dark wine cellar, I relied on my longing for you to make it through, but you are telling me now. I misunderstood? Qin Tianming, I'll give you one last chance. If you really are heartless to me... From now on, I won't disturb you anymore."

Shock flashed across Qin Tianming's eyes. His face was hidden under the mask, and I couldn't see his expression.

Just as I was waiting for him to give me a different answer, what he said next completely shattered my expectations.

He said, "That's impossible. Although Nanqian is playful, she wouldn't do such a thing. There must be a misunderstanding between you two."

He stood on Zhao Nanqian's side without hesitation.

In his eyes, Zhao Nanqian was just playful. Her heart was kind.

I looked at this man in front of me. I clearly knew him for more than ten years, but I suddenly felt that I didn't know him at all. He was too unfamiliar.

I staggered two steps and lowered my eyes in disappointment. My tears fell.

In a soft voice, I said, "I understand."

"Nan..."

Then, he called out, "Mr. Qin."

A woman suddenly pushed open the door and entered. Qin Tianming and I turned around to look at her at the same time.

It was a tall and beautiful woman with fair skin and beautiful long legs.

The woman looked at me and a trace of surprise flashed across her eyes, as if she knew me. Very quickly, she shifted her gaze away from me and walked towards Qin Tianming.

"Mr. Qin, you have been waiting for a long time. Mr. Lih is busy right now, so I'm afraid he doesn't have time to come over. You just leave the painting behind. The final payment will be sent to your account later."

It turned out that Qin Tianming was selling the painting to Lih Shaojue.

"Okay." Qin Tianming left the painting behind, as if this was a dragon's pond and a tiger's den. He didn't even look at me, and left in a hurry.

I looked at Qin Tianming's back as he left. My heart throbbed in pain.

This is the last time I feel pain for him, and I will never do it again in the future.

I closed my eyes and waited for the pain in my heart to pass. Just as I was about to leave, I looked up and saw the woman looking at me with a measuring gaze.

Then, she smiled and stretched out her hand, introducing herself, "Hello, I am Liu Feifei."

Why does this name sound familiar?

I quickly remembered that this is Lih Shaojue's old lover.
