She quickly turned around and walked out of the office . Standing in the corridor, she heard cries of alarm coming from Team One’s office .

Cries of alarm?
Qiao Lian heaved a deep sigh of relief .
If the woman in the picture had been her, the response from Team One would have been way different .
Team One’s immediate reaction implied that it wasn’t her in the picture .
However, now that she had an answer, she suddenly realized that Shen Liangchuan was still on the line waiting for her response .
He had said to announce it .
Did that also mean that their agreement to get a divorce after she had given birth to a child would no longer be effective?
Although the two of them had reconciled after fighting over the birth control pills matter, Qiao Lian felt as though there was a sword suspended over her wounded heart .
That sword came in the form of this very contract .

And now he had finally relented .
Somewhere in her heart, she was deeply moved .
However…
“We can’t do that now, I have my own difficulties . I don’t know if you understand me?”
She said those words with heavy feelings of guilt, also fearing that Shen Liangchuan would get angry at her .
After a pause, he said, “Yes, I understand . ”
She was stunned by his reaction . Slowly, she broke into a smile .
It was only a phone call, but their brief conversation had made her feel like they had drawn closer to each other . And she felt something beginning to stir in her heart .
She took in a deep breath and immediately laughed . “Thank you . ”

“We’re husband and wife, there’s no need for formalities,” Shen Liangchuan said calmly .
“Team One has started to write the article! I believe it will be published soon . ”
Shi Nianyao’s words interrupted the silent awkwardness between the couple .
Qiao Lian snapped out of her dazed state and said in an embarrassed manner, “I’ll have to get back to work now . ”
“Okay, bye . ”
After hanging up the phone, her face was burning .
Shi Nianyao looked at Qiao Lian curiously . “Chief Editor Lian Lian, Best Actor Shen is really something . It was only a call and he has managed to get you blushing so brightly!”
Qiao Lian: …
She gave Shi Nianyao’s forehead a light push . “Okay, go keep an eye on them . Once the article is out, inform me immediately . ”

Shi Nianyao nodded . “No problem . You can continue blushing while I help you keep an eye on them . ”
Qiao Lian: …
She put her hands on the sides of her face . Indeed, it was heated up .
Team One moved quickly to get the article out as soon as possible .
As Qiao Lian was staring into blank space, Shi Nianyao spoke excitedly, “The report is out, come quick! Who on earth is this?
The moment she heard this, Qiao Lian quickly navigated to the news agency’s website . The moment she entered the website, the photo was the first thing she saw .
The picture seemed to have been taken at the entrance of a hotel . In the picture, Shen Liangchuan was with a girl and they were just walking up the the steps .
The girl had lost her balance and nearly fallen . Shen Liangchua had placed his hand on her arm to help steady her .
Even in the static photograph, his classy elegance and poise was evident in the way he had turned around to provide support for the woman in the photograph . It was a pleasure to the eyes .
And the woman in the picture looked apologetic and a little nervous . She came across as a shy and introverted, yet an outstanding individual .
It was Song Yuanxi .
Qiao Lian’s pupils shrank .
When had Shen Liangchuan taken Song Yuanxi to a hotel?
Just as she was pondering this, Shen Liangchuan’s call came in .
Qiao Lian picked up the line and he started to explain in his usual calm manner . “I was taking Yuanxi to see the film director . I didn’t expect we would be photographed .
So was he explaining because he had seen the news report?
