nJust as the reporter raised her camera, Qiao Lian quickly raised her hands to cover her face. She wanted to go back into the villa, but someone grabbed her arm tightly.

n“Mrs. Shen, what is your real identity?”

n“When are you going to hold your wedding?”

n“How did you and Best Actor Mr. Shen get to know each other?”

nThe reporters moved forward and surrounded her. The way they bombarded her with questions felt as though they would not be satisfied until they find out everything about her.

nQiao Lian kept her head down. She realized that even if the butler and security officer managed to escort her back into the villa, the reporters had already taken pictures of her covering her face. And if those pictures appeared alongside Shen Liangchuan on the hot searches… Remembering his warning earlier, she was sure she didn’t want to take any chances.

nShe couldn’t fluster, she definitely needed to keep her ground.

nSuddenly, she had an idea.

nBefore the caretaker spoke, Qiao Lian stood up straight and lowered her arms slowly, showing her face to the crowd.

nThe reporters immediately started clicking their cameras furiously.

nHowever, Qiao Lian gave a pitiful expression and clung onto the caretaker, “I was wrong, I have realized my mistake. I promise to never trespass your house again. I shouldn’t have climbed into your house. Please forgive me and give me a chance! I was desperate to get first hand news as I have to support my family. I have really realized my mistake, just forgive me this once.”

nShe had her heart in her mouth as she spoke while observing the people behind her.

nThe reporters watched the scene unfolding in front of them in confusion. They gradually stopped taking pictures.

nThe caretaker was also stunned, unsure about what exactly was happening.

nSuddenly, one of the reporters shouted with uncertainty, “Qiao Lian, is that you?”

nSomeone asked, “Who’s Qiao Lian?”

n“That famous reporter from Gossip Entertainment News!”

n“Holy sh*t! She worked so hard just for first-hand news? I admit defeat!”

nAfter hearing these words, the caretaker lowered her head and saw Qiao Lian continuously blink her eyes at her with her back facing the crowd. The caretaker suddenly realized what Qiao Lian was trying to convey to her and said, “Please leave, but we will reserve the rights to pursue the case of your illegal entry into private property!” with a straight face.

nAfter finishing her sentence, she turned around and slammed the main door.

nQiao Lian stood outside the door, staring at the cold metal door, and she couldn’t help but be impressed. Even the caretaker of Best Actor Shen had amazing acting skills!

nSeeing that she had finally gotten herself off the hook, Qiao Lian took a cab to the news agency.

nOn the way, she picked up her cell phone and dialed Dr. Li’s number, “Doctor Li, I’m Qiao Yi’s sister, could you please prepare his surgery as fast as possible? The money is ready.”

nAfter hanging up the phone, she looked dazedly out of the car window. The relaxed expression on her face faded away and was replaced with a grave look.

nHer brother was her only kin left in the world, so he had to stay alive and well.

nAs for the other things, she could settle them herself.

nFor now, at least, everything seemed to be on track and progressing well.

nWith that in mind, she sat up straight and braced herself for work. She would not admit defeat.

nBut once she arrived at the news agency, her chief editor who usually did not interact with her, walked to her with a big smile on his face! Her intuition had been right, he was up to something. He said, “Qiao Lian, aren’t you famous for being the most hardworking employee in the company? Let me give you a chance to dig up a big piece of news then. No matter what method you use, you must find out who Mrs. Shen is, or else… You can start preparing your resignation letter!”

nThose words hit her like a bolt from the blue.

nWhat?!
