Chapter 463 Liu Shan, you idio
In another part of Imperial, Liu Shan's black car parks as he steps out. Grabbing his laptop and bag he close the door and makes his way to his apartment.
A wide grin shown on his face as he could not wait to see his girl friend.
He had been in the hospital and after he was discharged, he stayed with Lin Hui and Xu Long as they searched for Chu Li Xiang.
Now, he was finally given the chance to come home, but only to get some things then head back. However, he also wants to use this time to explain to Ling Ni why he was not in contact with her.
Walking up the stairs, he opens his bag to take out a bouquet of flowers. He couldn't wait to see her beautiful face that makes his heart flutter.
"Hurry and leave or someone will see."
Just as he was about to reach the floor he lived on, he hears a woman's giggling voice.
His brows furrow and he stops in his steps. A feeling of discomfort rouse inside him. Why did the voice sound like Ling Ni?
"This is for you. I had a great time with you."
Quickly as he thought this, a man's chuckling voice sounds, and he frowns. Why is there a man's voice too?
Lifting his leg, he continues to climb up the stairs. His heart was beating in slow rhythms as he tells himself that it is not Ling Ni with another man.
Reaching the floor to his apartment, Liu Shan was rooted to the floor like he had turn into a statue.
The door to Ling Ni's apartment was wide open and there was a bulky bald-headed man standing outside the door. The man held Ling Ni in his arms as he kissed her with his tongue tangling with hers.
Ling Ni was wearing a silky pink robe and holding a gift bag in one hand. Anyone can see that she was not angry with the man as she was returning the kiss.
As they pull apart, the bulky man licks his lip to taste her saliva and he pulls out an envelope from his back pocket.
Handing it to her with one hand, his other hand reach to grab her butt with a squeeze.
"I'll be waiting for you at the usual place tonight."
Ling Ni takes the envelope and puts it inside the gift bag. She gives the man a smile and gestures for him to leave.
The man grins as he got what he wanted and leaves with a happy face.
Seeing all this, Liu Shan felt like someone had dropped a mountain on his chest. His grip loosens on his bag and it falls to the ground with a loud thud.
The sound caught the two people's attention as they turn to look at the source of sound.
All the colors on Ling Ni's face drained away when she saw Liu Shan. She knows that he must have heard and seen everything.
However, unlike her, the bulky man leisurely walks away and pass Liu Shan as he leaves down the stairs.
"Liu Shan…"
After a long moment of silence, Ling Ni shockingly whisper his name. She clench her hand holding the gift bag as she doesn't know what to say.
Coming out of his shock, Liu Shan gives her a faint smile and reach down for his bag. He picks it up and walks over to her.
"I thought you might like these."
He hands her the bouquet of flowers and without waiting for a response, he walks to the door to his apartment.
"Liu Shan, I'm sorry."
Ling Ni trembles her words as sorry was all she could say. Liu Shan had been very sweet to her, but…
Hearing her words, Liu Shan clench his hands holding his bag. He turn his head to look at her with a smile that did not reach his eyes.
"What are you sorry for? You didn't do anything wrong."
Turning away from her, he unlocks the door and opens it.
"It's your life."
His words fell as he enters his place and closed the door.
Ling Ni felt like everything around her had become dark. She looks down at the gift the other man had given her then the bouquet of flowers.
Tears slid down her eyes and she quickly enters her apartment. Closing the door, she throws the bag on the floor as an expensive high-end bag slides out with an envelope of money.
Her legs turn weak and she slumps onto the floor.
She always appeared as a dainty and innocent woman, but the truth is, she sells her body for money. She had her reasons for doing such a filthy thing, but she had to.
The only thing was, she never thought she would one day meet someone so good to her like Liu Shan.
Never did she ever want him to see her this way.
Streams of tears ran down her cheeks and she hugs the bouquet of flowers in her arms.
As Ling Ni cried to herself inside, Liu Shan calmly set his bag and laptop on his couch. He looks around his lonely living room and he chuckles in self-pity.
He thought Ling Ni had mutual feelings with him, but turns out, it was only him. All this was one-sided.
While he was in the hospital, she was going around selling her body to other men.
Was he disappointed that she's been with other men? Yes, he is.
Does he mind it? No, he doesn't. Every person has a past.
Thinking this, he takes a deep breath to calm himself. He shouldn't be sad since he and Ling Ni are not in a relationship. His wishful thinking made him read her feelings all wrong.
However, why does his heart ache so much?
His ex-girlfriend left him because he didn't have money to spoil her. So when another man flashes his wealth in front of her, she did not hesitate to leave him.
Remembering his bad luck with women, he faintly scoffs a chuckle and sniffs.
"Liu Shan, you idiot. Why do you always fall for the wrong girl?"
Forcing his tears back, he walks in the direction of his bedroom to take a shower.
However, each step he took, he couldn't help but lift his hand to wipe away the tears that somehow found their way out of his eyes.
