Chapter 621 : Best Actor Shen’s Counterattack (1)
What a choice of words in such a touching moment!
This guy was not in the least romantic.
Qiao Lian pouted and felt like giving Shen Liangchuan a good wallop.
But the next moment, a pair of strong arms embraced her shoulders, drawing her into his embrace with a swift motion.
His familiar breath and air of masculinity had a reassuring quality to them, allowing her heart to calm down.
To be honest…
She felt insecure.
When she and Shen Liangchuan got married, in the beginning, their relationship had been stormy.
All she could think of was to quickly bear his child and leave.
But through the interactions she had had with him, and even towards the end, when she found out that he was Zi Chuan, she had increasingly yearned for the warmth of this family she had joined.
While it was true that he had caused her a lot of pain, she couldn’t deny that he had also brought her much warmth.
He was like her rock, a person she could rely on no matter what trouble she got into.
Yet now, Lu Nanze was coming at them aggressively.
Qiao Lian was afraid that Shen Liangchuan would be defeated by Lu Nanze and would give up on her from then onwards.
Hence, she was putting on her best behavior, in the hope that Zi Chuan would not bear to let her go.
She was in a panic, her heart was confused.
But he had seen right through her. Although she laughed and joked all the time, he knew the insecurities she had and was meeting all of these with the embrace that was now giving her.
Qiao Lian’s eyes teared up.
He said to her in a clear and unhurried manner, “Xiao Qiao, I’m here.”
These words were like a soothing balm to her soul, and they warmed up her heart.
She nodded to show she understood. “Umm.”
Although she couldn’t bear to speak about this, she still did in the end, “Shen Liangchuan, can you promise me something?”
“Say it.”
“If there comes a point that you’re tired, let me know. I’ll leave.”
She didn’t want to be abandoned again, neither did she want to journey through life alone again.
She felt the arms around her waist tighten.
It felt as though he was trying to draw her right into his soul.
After a brief moment, he said unhurriedly, “Don’t be afraid, I will be here always.”
She immediately nodded.
The rumours on the internet were getting more and more serious.
Even some celebrities had exposed the details of the matter.
Best Actor Shen had flouted the filming crew’s regulations and, hence, been fired. He had had to pay a contract termination penalty of 50 million, which was the reason for the financial turnover problems that his company was now facing. In addition, a few artists in his company wanted to terminate their contracts with his company, resulting in a few lawsuits. Also, the investor that they initially had a deal with all of a sudden had shirked his responsibilities. All of these things had caused Best Actor Shen’s entertainment company to be at the brink of bankruptcy.
At once, there was a general sense of anxiety among the workers. Some staff in the company resigned, and some even tried to look for him at home.
This situation kept Shen Liangchuan awfully busy. He was all over Beijing city, looking for potential investors.
In a villa in Linglong District.
Lu Nanze sat on the sofa, steadily watching the news reports on his cell phone. He sneered and tossed his cell phone aside.
At this point, an assistant came up to him, saying, “Sir, we’ve discovered that Shen Liangchuan’s family is selling the properties under their name. In addition, they are trying to gather resources everywhere. Obviously, they are having turnover problems.”
Lu Nanze knitted his brow. “Indeed, he’s the great young master of the Shen Family. I’m surprised he can last this long.”
The assistant asked, “So what do we do now?”
Lu Nanze laughed and replied, “Of course, we add fuel to the fire.”
