Holding her breath, she looked intently at his expression after saying this.
She was afraid that he would object to it.
As expected, he frowned as his gaze traveled to her abdomen. “What if, in doing this, you end up in danger?”
Biting her lip, Qiao Lian kept silent.
A feeling of disappointment welled up inside.
Indeed, Shen Liangchuan would not agree to let her take the risk.
“The child is only two months old, it’s at its most fragile stage. Many miscarriages take place in the first trimester.”
Qiao Lian hung her head and looked at her abdomen.
Yes.
The child was fragile, she must not compromise her own child’s health.
As she contemplated this, she heard Shen Liangchuan continue, “And you, you’re being so close to him. If you do manage to get your hands on the account book and he finds out after that, what will happen if he flies into a rage? Have you thought about how you’re going to resolve all of this?”
Qiao Lian sighed deeply.
She had thought of all these possibilities, but she had no idea how she was going to resolve them.
She hung her head and bit her lip, saying, “I understand. I won’t risk the child.”
“Hence, we have to draw up a detailed plan.”
Qiao Lian nodded and said, “Ok, I understand, I’ll not- What did you just say?”
She looked up with a jerk of her head and stared at Shen Liangchuan in disbelief. But his expression was calm and steady. His dark eyes were fixed on her as he said slowly, “How to get close to him, how to get into his office without arousing suspicion, how to get that account book—all of this must be based on a reasonable plan. Qiao Lian, we can’t just use brute force without logic. We have to use this to achieve our objectives.”
He tapped his head with a finger.
When she heard these words, her eyes welled up with tears at once as she looked at Shen Liangchuan in astonishment. “You- you agree to me getting close to Lu Nanze?”
He nodded and replied, “Yes, I agree, but you have to promise me one thing.”
“What is it?”
“No matter what, you have to protect yourself.”
Qiao Lian started crying at once. “Shen Liangchuan!”
Shen Liangchuan was taken aback by her reaction and hurriedly took a step forward. Putting his arms around her shoulders, he asked, “Why are you crying?”
“Shen Liangchuan, you’re so nice to me.”
Qiao Lian murmured these words.
Shen Liangchuan couldn’t help but laugh at her. “You’re saying I’m nice to you because I agreed. But if I hadn’t agreed, would that mean I’m not being nice to you?”
Qiao Lian shook her head and said, “No, that’s not what I meant. I was saying—”
Shen Liangchuan looked at her, waiting for her explanation.
But the next moment, all she said was, “I love you.”
He froze when he heard those three plain words and even started to look slightly awkward.
Clearing his throat, he said, “Ok, I know.”
He got to his feet and lightly rubbed her head affectionately, saying, “Wait here for a bit.”
She nodded.
He left the room and went into the study.
After half an hour, he came back to the bedroom and walked up to Qiao Lian holding out a piece of paper to her. “This is the detailed plan I’ve drafted for now. It needs refining. But what we need to do first is ensure that you are in good health. I’ve called the family physician and he will fly from Beijing tonight. He’ll be here early tomorrow morning to give you a check-up.”
