"Can you tell me where you were on my birthday?"
Liang Yunsheng's mouth was dry. When she asked the question, she felt that her mind was completely empty. She used her greatest courage to speak what she had hidden in her heart the most.
She was looking forward to Yin Qianchen's answer, but at the same time, she was afraid that the answer that Yin Qianchen would give wouldn't be what she wanted.
"What about you?"
Yin Qianchen didn't answer her question directly, but asked a question in return.
Liang Yunsheng choked and didn't know how to respond.
"Why are you talking about me?" Liang Yunsheng frowned slightly and returned the topic to him. "I'm asking you!"
"I just came back from South Africa."
"Why..." Liang Yunsheng's clenched her hands into fists. Her heart was lonely, and she didn't know how to describe her feelings. Fear. Shame. They weren't enough.
Just as she didn't respond, Yin Qianchen reached out and gently pressed on the top of her head. This was an action that was similar to comforting her.
Her chaotic thoughts ceased.
Yin Qianchen's palm was warm, but she couldn't help but think of the day when she was caressed by a similar large palm.
"Sometimes in life, there are many things that we have to do. You and I are the same. As long as we live in this world, we can't dwell too much on the past. Let's not think about the past anymore."
After saying these words, Yin Qianchen walked past her.
"You once told me that love and even all kinds of feelings are the most ridiculous things in this world." Liang Yunsheng turned around and faced his back. "I want to make a bet with you now. I will bet... that you will regret saying that."
"A person will always meet his doom, someone will makes it impossible for you to ignore all kinds of feelings."
'My doom is you,' Liang Yunsheng thought. 'Although the person who can affect your emotions and make you fall in love won't be me.'
"You will regret what you said in the beginning."
***
The charity dinner hosted by the Liang family was the first time that Yin Qianchen had officially brought Liang Yunsheng to a public event.
When the two of them walked side by side, they still attracted a lot of attention.
The focus of the problem had two points:
First, who was the girl standing next to Yin Qianchen?
Second, what was their relationship?
Liang Yunsheng hoped that the two of them would keep a low profile, but the man beside her was too dazzling. If people didn't pay attention to him, it would make him look blind.
And the first person who walked toward them was the host of the banquet, Liang Yaosheng.
Liang Yunsheng didn't know how to face him. He was her biological father, but he was so unfamiliar that he was terrifying.
Fortunately, the reason why Liang Yaosheng approached them was probably Yin Qianchen.
She felt relieved when Yin Qianchen responded to Liang Yaosheng's greetings coldly. He was polite, but he didn't seem close. Whenever Liang Yunsheng was mentioned, she would smile faintly.
"Mr. Liang's banquet this time seems to be for charity, but in fact... the purpose is to introduce Miss Liang, who has just returned from studying in Country M."
This was the longest sentence that Yin Qianchen had said to Liang Yaosheng.
Liang Yunsheng was stunned.
M Nation. Miss Liang, who had returned from studying abroad...
Was he talking about... Su Yiyi?
