C32 Heartache

Sheng Liang was silent for a long time, before he looked her in the eye with a bitter smile: "I am a person without a tomorrow. What I have done, makes it so that I can die at any time, moreover, I am not a good person."

After saying that last sentence, Sheng Liang actually smiled, but it was not in the depths of his eyes. Qiao Xuan could even see his helplessness and decisiveness from this smile.

Qiao Xuan didn't know what to say. Even though she had a good impression of him, she had not reached the point of life and death together. Giving him a casual promise was also not her style.

"I know." Qiao Xuan said indifferently, showing his agreement.

Sheng Liang nodded her head and retrieved the ice bag. Seeing that her face was no longer swollen, she stood up and said: "After this matter is concluded, other than the one we have previously agreed upon, you can raise one more condition for me. As long as I can do it, I will spare no effort."

For the indifferent Sheng Liang, this was already considered a rare opportunity. Qiao Xuan was not a greedy person, she thanked him once again.

Even though they were in the same room, Sheng Liang had always been sleeping on the sofa outside. Furthermore, ever since he had arrived, he had been busy all the way until very late into the night.

When Qiao Xuan woke up in the middle of the night, he saw that there was still light outside. She walked over and saw that Sheng Liang had fallen asleep on the sofa.

Qiao Xuan gently moved his notebook away and pulled a blanket to cover his body. His forehead was tightly furrowed, as if he was in a dream and couldn't stretch his body.

Qiao Xuan just looked at him like that, and couldn't shift her gaze away for a long time. When she thought about what he had said, she unconsciously felt even more sorry for him.

Qiao Xuan grew up in a family full of love. Even though she wasn't that rich, they helped each other out and never needed to be on guard against anything. Thus, she didn't quite understand Sheng Liang's precautions and caution.

But from the day that she had awoken in this life, she had seen too many people from the Sheng Family squeeze out and frame him. Even though they were far away from the Sang City, they still could not escape their killing intent and surveillance.

She was becoming more and more aware that she had only wanted to work with him in the past, to each take what they needed, but now that was not the case. She truly wanted to help him.

"Why aren't you sleeping?" Sheng Liang opened his eyes and sat up from the sofa.

Qiao Xuan did not expect Sheng Liang to wake up, and he was shocked. He immediately stood up with a flustered expression, "I … I'm a little thirsty, so I'd like to pour myself a glass of water. "

Seeing Qiao Xuan frantically go to pour the water, but one of his hands were inconvenient, so he almost broke the cup, Sheng Liang walked over and said: "Let me do it."

Actually, he had been awake since the moment Qiao Xuan came out. Many years of vigilance had trained him to be vigilant, so even when he slept, if there was even the slightest noise, he would quickly wake up.

At that time, he thought Qiao Xuan wanted to see the things on his computer so he didn't open his eyes. He didn't expect her to just squat on the ground and look at him blankly.

This woman couldn't have really fallen in love with him, right?

Sheng Liang handed the cup over to Qiao Xuan and saw that her face was flushed. He subconsciously reached for her forehead: "Are you having a fever?

Sheng Liang's sudden action gave Qiao Xuan a fright, and he anxiously retreated: "I'm fine, go to sleep. Sorry to disturb you."

Seeing her put down the cup of water and run away in a fluster, a hint of warmth slowly emerged in Sheng Liang's usually indifferent eyes.
