Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Shen Liangchuan had no idea where Qiao Lian was heading.
But it was the second day of the new year, and if she wanted to have some fun out, it didn’t really matter.
After all, Qiao Lian didn’t have many friends or relatives in Beijing. It wasn’t a bad thing for her to spend some time relaxing with Shi Nianyao, since she had been cooped up at home for so many days.
However while he was on the road, he received a call from Shi Nianyao.
She had asked him, “Best Actor Shen, where’s your Lian Lian? Would you mind if I asked her to hang out today? I’m feeling terribly bored at home.”
Upon hearing this, Shen Liangchuan frowned and replied, “Didn’t you plan to meet up today?”
If they hadn’t planned to meet, then where was Qiao Lian going by herself?
Puzzled by his remark, she replied, “No, I wasn’t sure if you’d agree, so I’m calling to ask. I thought I’d only call her if you agree.”
Shen Liangchuan’s expression turned serious.
There were few cars on the road. After all, it was the festive season and most people were staying at home. Few people were out and about.
He slowly stopped his car on the road. As though he suddenly remembered something, he quickly hung up. Then he immediately launched the Lot game and logged in with his account under the user “Zi Chuan.” It has been a terribly long time since he logged into this account.
If his memory served him right, the team members would gather on the second day of the new year each year.
The moment he logged in, indeed, the announcement was there.
At the Beijing Banquet.
Immediately tossing his cell phone aside, he floored the accelerator and sped towards the venue.
At that moment, a group of waiters had already gathered around the doorway.
They stared at Shen Liangchuan with astonishment, their hands raised to cover their mouths, looking both excited and nervous.
Qiao Lian looked at Shen Liangchuan and at once, she noticed that he still had on the black jacket that he had worn to visit his grandfather. He had his black driving gloves on too.
However, the expression on his face was plain. He had rushed over and he looked nervous.
Why was he nervous?
Was he afraid that she would find out something?
At this thought, she turned to look at the captain once again and then at the crowd.
She was doubly sure now… The man in that picture on the tombstone had something to do with this team.
Perhaps the answer was right here.
As this thought entered her head, she heard the people in the crowd already gasping, “Best Actor Shen!”
“Oh my god! Shen Liangchuan! My idol!”
The crowd stared in the direction of the doorway, at Shen Liangchuan, as though they didn’t understand why he was here.
Both the captain and Monochrome too, were completely astonished. Their jaws had fallen so much that their mouths were now open, forming the shape of the letter ‘O’.
Shen Liangchuan walked towards Qiao Lian and repeated, “Xiao Qiao, come home with me right now.”
Xiao Qiao?
Everyone turned simultaneously to look at her.
Come home with him?
Someone suddenly narrowed his eyes as he realized something. He jumped up and pointed at Qiao Lian, saying, “My god! I recall now! She’s the female eSports caster Forget Chuan!”
“She is Mrs. Shen!”
As soon as the term Mrs. Shen was mentioned, everyone in the room was shaken.
All eyes were on Qiao Lian now, staring at her in disbelief.
Following this, they recalled what Monochrome had just said about paying her for the endorsement, and she had said he couldn’t afford it.
Indeed.
Mrs. Shen!
Based on the fact that she was Mrs. Shen, how much would that be worth?!
Then they also recalled that Monochrome had actually remarked that Xiao Qiao’s husband was poor.
They looked at Shen Liangchuan… He was everything but poor!
Who didn’t know that Best Actor Shen perceived the highest film salary as an actor in the entertainment industry?
And who didn’t know that Best Actor Shen hardly took on endorsement deals? But for the products that he did endorse, he was paid tens of millions in endorsement fees.
