Shen Liangchuan came out of Qiao Lian’s office with a gloomy expression.

He had been hopeful prior to meeting her. He had imagined the possibility that she could regret it.

But now...

His darkened expression revealed an underlying viciousness.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

No one dared to stop him as he strode towards the elevator and got into it.

Then just as the elevator doors were about to close, he heard a woman’s voice, “Wait!”

Following this, a silhouette dashed into the elevator.

Shen Liangchuan had walked in alone. He did not look up at this point, moreover, he had put on his sunglasses and mask so that no one could see his expression.

The woman interrupted his deep thoughts, “Mr Shen, how do you do? I’m a great fan of yours and have admired you for the longest time!”

When hearing this, Shen Liangchuan slowly looked up at Su Meimei.

She was extremely nervous and her palms were clammy. However, her idol didn’t seem to have taken any notice to what she had said.

She was about to speak again, however the elevator arrived at the ground floor.

Su Meimei panicked as she saw that Shen Liangchuan was about to leave. “Best Actor Shen, Qiao Lian is a two-timer!”

Shen Liangchuan’s eyes darkened as he came to a halt. He turned around to face Su Meimei.

As he did so, her eyes lit up.

She took a step forward, saying, “Best Actor Shen, do you know Fan Jie? There’s something going on between Qiao Lian and him! Fan Jie specifically gave her an exclusive interview for his new album! And she only got the position of Team Two’s Chief Editor because of this. While she was with you, she also had some dirty business going on with Fan Jie. They maintained an ambiguous relationship at the office. Best Actor Shen... she is shameless!”

Shameless?

Shen Liangchuan remarked sharply, “Who did you just call shameless?!”

Seeing that Shen Liangchuan finally spoke, Su Meimei thought that her scheme was succeeding. “Best Actor Shen, I’m telling you all of this because I can’t bear seeing you being cheated by her. Qiao Lian is a skittish woman!”

Shen Liangchuan’s gaze hardened. “Skittish?”

Su Meimei nodded.

Then she heard him mutter, “At least she has what it takes to be skittish, unlike you.”

Having said that, he strode off.

Su Meimei widened her eyes, as his words crossed her mind.

Was Best Actor Shen saying that she wasn’t skittish?

No... Qiao Lian had what it took, but she herself didn’t... Wasn’t he implying that she was ugly?

Su Meimei blushed when she realized and felt a growing dull ache in her heart.

This Best Actor Shen was too much! His words had cut right through her heart.

Shen Liangchuan didn’t give a damn about the fury Su Meimei was feeling.

He walked out of the building and got into his car, all the while staring straight ahead.

His expression darkened and he sneered, as Su Meimei’s words had reminded him of Fan Jie.

Qiao Lian sat in her office for a while, she had been very distracted after Shen Liangchuan left.

She was disturbed by that vicious look in his eyes, right before he had left.

However since she was at work, she had to pull herself together and return to the meeting room.

All eyes were trained on her as she walked in. Liu Zhixing couldn’t help but ask, “Qiao Lian, what have you done to offend Best Actor Shen?”

Not wishing to elaborate, Qiao Lian just muttered an excuse with the hope that no one would ask further.

Once she sat back down to continue with the meeting, her cell phone suddenly started ringing.

It was Fan Jie. Surprised, she froze for a moment before picking up. Fan Jie’s voice came through, “Sister-in-law, it’s about the exclusive tomorrow. I’m afraid I can’t do it...”
