Chapter 431: So It Was Her! (1)

She bit her lower lip seeing that Auntie Li was a little nervous, as though afraid that she would get into an argument with her husband over this.

Qiao Lian immediately smiled and replied, “I understand. I’ll wait for him back in the bedroom then.”

Auntie Li heaved a sigh of relief and nodded.

Giving up the idea of going to the third floor for now, Qiao Lian made her way back to the bedroom slowly.

She took off her robe and lay on the bed. Perhaps because she had gone downstairs, or perhaps because of the things that Auntie Li had said, Qiao Lian no longer felt sleepy.

The fact was that everyone had their own little secrets.

Just like her relationship with Zi Chuan or her own past, she had never told these to Shen Liangchuan.

So why should she mind his past?

Besides, she and Shen Liangchuan had been married no more than two months, hence it wasn’t unreasonable if they didn’t completely trust each other at this stage.

She believed that, given time, he would one day invite her into his room on the third floor.

With this thought, she suddenly felt better and shut her eyes. Soon, she fell asleep.

–

The following day, Qiao Lian was supposed to go to work.

Shen Liangchuan drove her to the office. However, after reporting for work, she was ready to sneak out again.

Shi Nianyao grabbed her and asked, “Chief Editor Lian Lian, where are you going?”

Qiao Lian hushed her and coughed once. “I’m going out to gather news.”

Then she lowered her voice and told Shi Nianyao, “The eSports competition is starting soon, so I have to go check up on the team and discuss the game strategy with the team leader.”

Shi Nianyao immediately understood and nodded. “Ok, go then and don’t worry, I’ll cover you!”

Qiao Lian threw her a kiss and rushed out.

Ever since Su Meimei had left the news agency, the office had been a lot more peaceful and orderly.

Team One’s Chief Editor Zhang Chunhua had been quiet lately and had not come around looking for trouble.

Therefore, things in the news agency had also calmed down.

With Fan Jie as her guarantor and the backing of Sun Linan, a rich second-generation heir, Managing Editor Liu Zhixing had finally recognized that Qiao Lian was not one to be trifled with. Hence, he had been lenient with her recent slack and passive attitude towards work.

On top of this, Qiao Lian did come back with exclusives every now and then, so he really had no reason to complain.

At this point, she was in the limelight.

Her life was unprecedentedly harmonious.

Once downstairs, Qiao Lian walked straight into Shen Liangchuan’s car and the two of them headed to the team’s villa.

It was almost 11 am by the time they got there.

The team members were mostly night owls, so they weren’t awake yet.

They waited for over an hour before all the members were up.

Zombie Leader Su Penghao got extremely excited when he saw Shen Liangchuan. “I’m sure we’ll be able to raise our ranking in the upcoming competition. I suddenly thought of a new strategy.”

The first round of the eSports competition was a preliminary competition.

Twelve teams would be selected from amongst all the competitors to properly enter the competition.

Although the preliminary competition was supposed to be easier…

In eSports, team coordination was far more critical than the individual player’s strength.

Because the team was quite new, team coordination was not their strength.

Whereas there were other teams that had taken part in past Lot competitions, and these were veteran teams.

Hence, their team would have to initially depend on ambush troops and Zombie Leader’s innovative strategies.

Qiao Lian had already thought of these things.

As the team hadn’t had enough time to train, they could only learn and grow a step at a time through the competition.

Except…

Qiao Lian looked at Su Penghao for a moment.

Wasn’t she the coach of this team? He was making his disdain for her very explicit.
