After driving on the expressway for more than three hours, they finally arrived at the seaside of Qinhuangdao.
Qiao Lian got off the car after Shen Liangchuan. They were walking on the beach when Shen Liangchuan stopped in his tracks.
Qiao Lian looked at him, unaware of why he had suddenly stopped walking.
Shen Liangchuan pointed at the sea and said, “Look.”
She looked in the direction he was pointing at, but Qiao Lian could see nothing but the vast sea.
Just when she was about to ask what was there to see, she was suddenly drawn by the distant view.
The emerald-green seawater looked just like silk, floating in ripples under the sunlight.
In the distance, the sea and sky joined to become one vast horizon.
A wind blow triggered a ma.s.sive wave. However, no matter how ma.s.sive the wave was, everything returned to peace in the end.
The sea was an imposing grandeur that could contain anything and everything.
Standing on the beach beside the coast, all of Qiao Lian’s frustrations from work became almost nothing in front of the endless sea.
Suddenly, she felt a majestic strength emerge within her.
So what if she had lost her job? She could just find another one!
She was determined to achieve what she had set out to do before she died.
These thoughts slowly calmed her heart down, and she was not as fretful as she had initially been.
Standing there quietly, she turned to look at Shen Liangchuan. All of a sudden, a thought came to her mind.
She widened her eyes in astonishment. “Shen Liangchuan, you brought me here because…”
Was it because…
The next moment, she heard Shen Liangchuan say, “Whenever I’m down, I like to look at the sea.”
He had always believed that the sea could wash away all sadness.
Just like eight years ago…
Whenever he felt extremely unhappy, he would secretly come here to look at the sea.
He had kept this habit of his until this day.
His words had confirmed Qiao Lian’s guess.
Her gaze, directed at Shen Liangchuan, brightened up in an instant.
So, he had brought her here to lift up her spirits?
He had just set up his company. However, he had delayed his schedule just to take her to the beach and make her happy?
She felt an inexplicable joy and was moved beyond words. These feelings slowly warmed her heart, and she couldn’t help but lower her head.
It had been a long, long time since she had experience such care.
Her eyes watered instantaneously. “How did you know that I was unhappy?”
Shen Liangchuan looked down.
Then, she realized something again. “How did you know that I was in the garden!?”
Shen Liangchuan pressed his lips together.
Fan Jie had told him that Qiao Lian was feeling down.
He had given her a call, but he hadn’t expected that she would reject the call.
So, he had no option but to ask someone to drive around the vicinity of her workplace. Only after driving around aimlessly for a long time did he spot her in the garden.
However, looking at her small, delicate face and bright eyes, he said nonchalantly, “I happened to pa.s.s by there and I saw you.”
He looked rather unnatural, so there was a tinge of impatience in his tone. “Are you done looking? If you are, let’s head back.”
Qiao Lian grinned from ear to ear immediately. “I’m done looking!”
After driving for over three hours and looking at the sea for half an hour, the sky was already dark when they reached Beijing.
Qiao Lian lay on her bed after eating and was.h.i.+ng up. Her heart felt as sweet as honey.
The last thought she had before falling asleep was that she had not expected that even Shen Liangchuan’s way of comforting people was special.
Qiao Lian had really gotten over what had happened that day. She started paying attention to hiring notices put out by other news agencies.
Five days later, G8ssip News called her and asked her to report to the news agency.
