The 99th Divorce - Chapter 98: Your Music
His cell phone suddenly rang, bringing Su Qianci back to reality. For some reason, Su Qianci had tears all over her face. Su Qianci turned around and saw his dark eyes. They were cold as always but had some other emotions hidden within them. He seemed to be intrigued.
Su Qianci's heart suddenly raced. She quickly moved her gaze away. When had he arrived? She had not noticed it at all.
Li Sicheng looked away and saw her hands placed on the keyboard.
Su Qianci suddenly stood up, wiping her tears away hurriedly and stepping away from the piano.

Her heart beat slowed down as her fists clenched.

There was always Tang Mengying between them. Seeing Li Sicheng answering the call and walking away from the piano, Su Qianci felt something had left her heart…
