Super Rich: It all started when I met a young woman in a sleeper car.
Chapter 8 Shattered
On the quiet street, there was only a dilapidated street lamp. In the dim light, the girl huddled under the lamp, her body trembling and sobbing incessantly.
The girl's purple hair stood out brightly under the streetlights.
Her phone was lying on the ground, the screen still lit up, showing a chat page with a friend on WeChat.
[Li Qian, you didn't even bother to meet up with me after you came back?]
Those few words, though brief, were like a sharp sword piercing the girl's heart.
Her face, buried in her arms, was already wet with tears. She tried to suppress her sobs, but they still echoed clearly in the air.
"Li Qian..."
Around the corner not far away, Chen Xun appeared and saw Li Qian squatting under the street lamp.
"What... what happened?"
He didn't shout; instead, he sent a message to Lin Xinyue and the other woman, saying that he had found Li Qian and that they didn't need to look for her anymore, just wait at the hotel.
Chen Xun walked over quietly.
He stood in front of Li Qian, who was trembling uncontrollably, and gave a bitter smile, still holding a packaged bowl of beef noodles in his hand.
Chen Xun slowly squatted down, without calling her name, but simply stayed quietly with her.
Li Qian was clearly unaware that Chen Xun had already come to her side.
It wasn't until she slowly raised her head that her moist eyes saw Chen Xun's heartbroken expression.
Tears were everywhere on my face. Luckily, I wasn't wearing makeup, or I would have looked like a little kitten.
Looking at Li Qian like this, Chen Xun realized that she was completely different from her previous aloof self, like a broken vase.
"Big...brother?"
Li Qian was somewhat surprised that Chen Xun would appear here, and choked up with tears in her eyes.
Then, suddenly remembering something, I looked at my phone and found that the screen had automatically turned off, and I breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's okay, you don't have to call me that if you don't want to. Just call me by my name. It was Xin Yue and the others who suggested it."
Chen Xun said softly, while taking out a tissue.
Li Qian took the tissue and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and her face.
"You haven't eaten anything, have you? Look."
"I had packed some food for you, but it got cold, so I just bought a bowl of beef noodles instead."
Chen Xun didn't mention that she wasn't answering everyone's calls or replying to messages. He didn't blame her or ask her why she was like this. He then handed her the packaged beef noodles.
Li Qian's vision was blurred by tears, and she didn't notice that Chen Xun was still holding something in his hand.
When Chen Xun brought out the rice noodles, Li Qian could no longer control her emotions and threw herself into Chen Xun's arms.
The crying was not a suppressed whimper, but a heart-wrenching scream.
Chen Xun was taken aback; he hadn't expected the usually taciturn Li Qian to do something like this.
Feeling the intense trembling of the delicate body in his arms, and hearing the heartbreaking cries.
He also felt his clothes gradually getting wet with tears.
Chen Xun fell silent, then reached out and gently patted her back.
More than ten minutes passed before Li Qian finally stopped crying.
She didn't say anything, loosened her arms from Chen Xun, and broke free from his embrace. When she realized what had happened, her face was already flushed.
She just looked at Chen Xun like that.
"Um...eat it."
Well, Chen Xun was embarrassed again, so he had no choice but to open the takeout box containing the rice noodles and thoughtfully take out the disposable chopsticks.
Li Qian took the bowl of beef noodles and the chopsticks, and began to eat it in small bites.

For the first time, Chen Xun didn't feel happy about receiving the cashback. It wasn't that the amount was small; he was genuinely worried about Li Qian.
"Eat heartily when you're hungry."
"It's just the two of us here."
Chen Xun said softly.
He watched Li Qian eat rice noodles with such gusto, like a mosquito sucking blood, and found it somewhat amusing.
As expected, Li Qian blushed again upon hearing this, but she picked up rice noodles with her chopsticks much faster and picked up a lot more.
It looks like they really haven't eaten all day and are starving.
After Li Qian finished eating, Chen Xun said softly, "Go back, Xin Yue and the others are looking for you."
"it is good."
Li Qian responded softly.
Perhaps because she had been squatting for too long, when Li Qian stood up, her legs suddenly went weak, her vision went black, and she fell forward.
Seeing this, Chen Xun reacted quickly and caught Li Qian before she fell.
"Are you alright?"
Chen Xun hurriedly said.
Li Qian didn't speak; she seemed somewhat weak.
Upon seeing this, Chen Xun immediately swept Li Qian up in his arms.
So light? Does it weigh 90 pounds?
Moreover, a delicate fragrance wafted into Chen Xun's nostrils.
Is this body odor?
Chen Xun was somewhat surprised.
"Chen...Chen Xun, what are you doing?"
Li Qian let out a soft cry and struggled slightly.
"What are you doing? I'm carrying you back! Don't move!"
Chen Xun spoke seriously.
Upon hearing this, Li Qian stopped struggling.
In the quiet of the night, on a deserted street, a young princess walked by carrying a girl.
The dimly lit street had no streetlights, and the moon overhead seemed even brighter, as if trying to illuminate the path around them.
"Although I don't know what happened, I know that it's right to vent when you're upset."
Chen Xun suddenly spoke, which startled Li Qian, who was shyly nestled in his arms.
"But I can't just hide away in some deserted corner like this."
"Xin Yue, Xiao Tao, and I are all very worried about you."
"You have us. You can talk to us and we'll take care of you."
"I know I may not be in a position to say this to you, since we haven't known each other for very long, but what about Xinyue and Xiaotao? Do you know that Xinyue and Xiaotao are almost crying with worry?"
Chen Xun spoke at length, his tone very gentle, without blaming or questioning, he simply spoke softly.
Li Qian listened intently, suppressing the urge to cry again, but she remained silent, burying her head even deeper into Chen Xun's arms.
Seeing that she still refused to tell him the whole story, Chen Xun stopped talking. He knew he needed time.
"Thanks……"
After a long silence, Li Qian finally uttered two words.
Chen Xun was taken aback for a moment, then smiled.
"Chen Xun, I'm all better now, can you put me down...?"
As they approached the hotel, more and more pedestrians appeared. Feeling the various strange looks she received, Li Qian whispered.
"Oh...okay."
Chen Xun immediately put her down, and, fearing she might faint again, held her arm.
"Chen Xun, I'm thirsty."
Li Qian blushed slightly and said softly.
"Wait here for me."
Chen Xun looked around and saw a shop, so he ran over and bought a bottle of water.

"Affection level increased by 35 points? It's just a bottle of water."
Chen Xun stared at Li Qian, who was sipping water, his eyelids twitching wildly, his heart filled with shock.
Could it be that the affection level surged wildly while I was carrying her?
