Chapter 961  : Best Actor Shen Is Here (6)

“Qiao Lian, hurry up and come. We are preparing to go meet Best Actor Shen!”

Qiao Lian suddenly smiled and replied when she heard Chuanliu Buxi calling her, “My company just called me out of the blue. They want me to go over urgently as something came up. I’m afraid I won’t be able to join you.”

Chuanliu Buxi exclaimed in surprise, but said accommodatingly, “That’s a pity! But nevermind, I’ll get you an autograph! I’ll give it to you.”

Qiao Lian nodded.

–

Away from the hotel, away from the crowd.

The chaotic noise finally faded from her ears.

While Qiao Lian walked along the street, she realized that her thoughts had stopped the moment her gaze had fallen on his face.

Shen Liangchuan had never had the habit of putting on makeup, and she had seen that his complexion was considerably good.

So she no longer had to worry.

–

At the same time, Shen Liangchuan, who had now stepped into the hotel lobby, felt a wrenching pain in his heart.

It felt as though something of importance was leaving him.

He frowned and thought for a moment before he turned to Song Cheng and asked, “Do we have a makeup artist?”

Song Cheng nodded.

Looking ahead, Shen Liangchuan continued, “I need a touch-up later on. At least I won’t look too bad then.”

Song Cheng was troubled when he heard this, but he nodded.

Since Ms. Qiao had left, Best Actor Shen had gone downhill and looked worse.

Although he was able to sleep now, his mood never lifted.

But that was also not entirely true.

Because before Ms. Qiao had married him, he had never been happy either.

So now, it was just going back to that monotonous, joyless life.

–

Dejectedly, Qiao Lian returned to the apartment where she now lived.

She had not noticed that a nondescript black sedan had followed her all the way.

Lu Nanze sat in the backseat and his gaze had never left her back. He was frowning.

His assistant could not stop himself from remarking, “Sir, will Ms. Qiao go look for Shen Liangchuan?”

Lu Nanze cast his gaze down and tapped his fingers against the armrest. After a moment, he said, “No, she won’t.”

If she was going to look for Shen Liangchuan now, then she wouldn’t have left in the first place.

He pulled his chin taut at this thought.

After another pause, he spoke again, “Let’s move according to our plan.”

“Roger.”

–

Initially, Qiao Lian had thought that Shen Liangchuan’s business trip to Suzhou was just a short day trip.

She had thought that he would leave on the same day, or at most, on the third day.

But unexpectedly that evening, Chuanliu Buxi sent messages to the fans’ group chats, telling them that Shen Liangchuan was going to be in Suzhou for an extended period.

When Qiao Lian saw the messages about him being there for an extended period, her heart started to pound wildly.

Staying for an extended period!

What for?

Did he know she was in Suzhou?

At that thought, her cell phone suddenly rang.

She looked down at the screen and saw that it was Cheng Sizhe.

She picked up the call and Cheng Sizhe’s voice came through the line, “Forget Chuan, one of our platform’s big bosses has contacted me. He said he’d like to contact you. Is it ok with you if I arrange a meeting?”

Qiao Lian was surprised by the unexpected request and asked, “Why?”

“I don’t know. Apparently, it’s to discuss signing an agreement.”

At present, she was considered one of the platform’s contracted female casters. Could it be that there was a problem with the agreement? It couldn’t be. Even if there was something wrong with the agreement, the big bosses wouldn’t be the ones talking to her about it.

Having contemplated this, she said, “Sure, why don’t you give him my cell phone number?”
