Qiao Xuan understood that Sheng Liang had given her a way out, so she immediately pushed Sheng Qian away and hurried outside.

Closing the door, Sheng Qian looked at Sheng Liang with an unfathomable smile: "Third brother, you couldn't have truly fallen for her since you were in such a hurry to protect her, right?"

Sheng Liang walked to the side of the sofa and sat down, flipping through a magazine on the tea table. He said nonchalantly: "How is that possible, with my identity, it's impossible for me to obtain the right to inherit the Sheng Family. However, snatching his woman away can be considered letting out a breath of relief."

Sheng Qian laughed, walked over and sat beside Sheng Liang, then patted his shoulders and said: "But Qiao Xuan seems to really like you, just now, she did everything she could to cover for you."

"If you want, I'll give it to you." Sheng Liang didn't even raise his head as he spoke with an indifferent tone.

Outside, Qiao Xuan clenched her fists and bit down on her lower lip until it turned white. Sheng Liang's disdainful words simply caused her heart to be riddled with holes.

She didn't want to hear their conversation, she merely closed the door and heard Sheng Qian's question before she even left. She was curious to hear Sheng Liang's answer, but she didn't think that he would actually say such things to her.

Although she had always known that Sheng Liang wouldn't fall in love with her, she at least thought that he would treat her as a friend.

"Miss Qiao, why are you not entering from the door?" Luo Jie walked over from the corridor, and asked puzzledly.

Qiao Xuan's shoulders trembled slightly, and then he turned around and ran away.

After Sheng Liang heard this, his eyebrows unconsciously knitted together.

Sheng Qian laughed, then looked at Sheng Liang and said: "This is bad, when that foolish woman heard you say that, she wondered if she would be so heartbroken that she would do such a foolish thing."

"Since you're so worried, you might as well chase after him and take a look." Sheng Liang's face still did not show any expression.

Sheng Qian felt a little defeated, he lazily stood up and tidied up his suit: "Alright, who asked me to be soft-hearted, I will reluctantly accept her for you. Although my demands towards women are quite high, but I have never tasted this kind of elite girl before, I don't know how they taste like."

Seeing Sheng Qian walk out of the door proudly, Sheng Liang slowly held his palm up.

Luo Jie watched Sheng Qian's back as he walked in and asked Sheng Liang, "What happened, why are Miss Qiao and Fourth Young Master —"

Before Luo Jie even finished speaking, Sheng Liang had already said to him: "Follow Sheng Qian and see what he wants to do."

Luo Jie did not understand what Sheng Liang meant. Shouldn't he be watching Qiao Xuan right now, why would he follow Sheng Qian? But seeing that Sheng Liang's expression was bad, he did not dare to ask, and immediately ran out.

Qiao Xuan ran out of the hotel, but did not know where she could go. Although she was sad, she did not lose her reason.

She walked to the side of the hotel and sat on a rock. Thinking about what Sheng Liang had just said, she couldn't help but feel sad.

She had already decided to bury her feelings for him deep in her heart. As long as she silently looked at him, it would be fine. But even such a simple wish had been shattered. How would she face him in the future?

"Third brother, it's really you. Why are you so unromantic? You treated him so well, but he actually said those kinds of words. It's really too much." Sheng Qian looked to be filled with righteous indignation, he sat beside Qiao Xuan and patted his shoulder, "If you are sad, I will lend you my shoulder."

Qiao Xuan was not in the mood to deal with him right now. She turned her face away and ignored him.
