Qiao Lian jumped in fright.

Hadn’t Shen Liangchuan left earlier today to attend a meeting?

Why was he back so early?

Could she actually leave dressed like that?

She coughed, her eyes spinning wildly, and said softly, “There’s a piece of news I need to uncover back at the news agency. I’m rushing over now.”

Shen Liangchuan’s eyes darkened and said commandingly, “I’m not allowing you to go out.”

Qiao Lian: …

Qiao Lian raised her head and said, “Mr. Shen—” Before she could finish speaking, he raised his eyebrows, so she immediately changed how she addressed him, “Shen Liangchuan, could you not interfere in my affairs when it comes to work? We’ve discussed this issue before, the terms are even written in our mutual contract…”

Shen Liangchuan was intending to make her stay by hook or by crook, but he suddenly remembered that she used to be extremely hardworking when she worked, mostly for his sake.

If he forced her to stay, would she be unhappy?

Shen Liangchuan pursed his lips and said, “Take care of yourself.”

Qiao Lian’s eyes brightened and immediately said sweetly, “All right! Shen Liangchuan, don’t worry! I will definitely leave in one piece and come back in one piece as well!”

She even bowed mischievously to him. Then, she ran downstairs, and he curled his lips into an irresistible smile when he saw the happy expression on her face.

However, he was still worried about her. Shen Liangchuan paused for a while before going downstairs and driving his car out of the villa. He then saw Qiao Lian walking in front of him.

He thought that she would hail a cab, but instead she walked to the nearest bus stop and, to his surprise, boarded a bus.

Shen Liangchuan frowned, as he reacted to what had just happened.

Did she always take public transport when she went to work at this time of the day?

He followed the bus by car, and eventually arrived at a residential area.

Just as he was about to drive inside, his phone suddenly rang. Song Cheng’s voice emanated from the other end, saying, “Brother Shen, I’ve got some news regarding Forget Chuan today. She wants to attend the livestreaming event! I’m going to stop her right now!”

Shen Liangchuan silently nodded in affirmation. However, just as he was intending to speak, Song Cheng continued, “However, guess who I just saw?”

Shen Liangchuan froze and said, “Who?”

“You, of course! Brother Shen, why are you driving near the entrance to this residential area? Are you also here to persuade Forget Chuan?”

Persuade Forget Chuan?

Shen Liangchuan froze again. As he turned around, he saw Song Cheng parking his car at a nearby spot.

He hung up and parked his car at the side of the road.

Song Cheng ran over to him eagerly. Shen Liangchuan said preemptively, “Why are you here?”

Song Cheng pointed at the residential area and said, “I heard that Forget Chuan always livestreams with Gao Youming, and Gao Youming always streams from his own home. Forget Chuan is really quite mysterious; until now, nobody has found out her identity. I realized that the only way our management company will be able to sign a contract with her will be through Gao Youming! I already have Gao Youming’s address. In a while, I’ll directly confront him inside his own home. Brother Shen, are you coming with me?”

Shen Liangchuan shrugged and nodded casually.

Song Cheng opened the car door for him and said, “Brother Shen, if you are coming with me, let me tell you something first. Don’t forget, Forget Chuan never reveals her face when she livestreams. Thus, she could be rather unattractive in person. However, in this day and age, even the most unattractive person can look somewhat decent with a bit of makeup. Hence, I’m guessing that Forget Chuan might not look too good. Once you see her in person, don’t show a disdained expression on your face!”

As he finished speaking, Shen Liangchuan looked at him coldly.

Song Cheng immediately shut his mouth up.

Both of them walked towards the residential area. Once they arrived at Gao Youming’s house, they rang the doorbell. Almost instantly, someone opened the door.
