Chapter 1077: Moved

“Alright, the live broadcast has been cut off. Now, let’s discuss what you promised me last night.” Jun Shiling removed the pen from Xia Wanyuan’s hand and pressed her onto the sofa.

“I didn’t agree to anything. Get up.” Xia Wanyuan pushed Jun Shiling helplessly. “I have ink on my hand.”

“I don’t care.” Jun Shiling looked down at Xia Wanyuan. There was a smile in Xia Wanyuan’s eyes. The collarbone under her neck was half-hidden, and it could easily draw out the heat in Jun Shiling’s heart.

Xia Wanyuan had been filming martial arts scenes for the past few days. She felt that she could not let Jun Shiling mess around anymore, so she hooked her arms around Jun Shiling’s neck. Her eyelashes blinked gently, and her big eyes flashed with a hint of weakness. “I’m tired.”

Xia Wanyuan usually looked cold and cheerless. Now that she suddenly showed weakness, it made Jun Shiling’s heart weak.

Although his body was even more excited because of her soft and weak appearance, he felt extremely pitiful. “Okay, okay, okay. Go and rest. I won’t torture you anymore.”

Xia Wanyuan smiled smugly and reached out to Jun Shiling. “I don’t want to walk.”

Jun Shiling lowered his head and kissed her forehead. “I’ll carry you up.”

“Mm.” Xia Wanyuan’s eyes curved.

In the open sea of Continent M, the phone on the ship was about to explode. Jayce came to ask for Yu Qian’s opinion with a troubled expression. “Boss, Sea Shark has already called more than ten times.”

“Ignore him.” Yu Qian held a book and sat by the window. His gentle side profile made it seem as if the turbulent sea outside had calmed down.

“Yes.” Jayce thought for a while and hesitated. In the end, he could not help but remind Yu Qian, “Boss, China’s operation failed. Punish me.”

Yu Qian flipped a page of the book and his gaze did not deviate at all. “Go down.”

He had expected failure. There was no need to talk about punishment.

“Yes.” Jayce closed the door carefully.

He felt relieved that he had escaped death, but he was also a little puzzled. The losses this time were not small. The connections and offline lines that the previous boss had spent many years burying in China had all disappeared in this operation.

Furthermore, they had spent a lot of effort to bring billions of drugs into China this time. Not only did they not earn a single cent, but they were also detained in China. It was an unprecedented loss.

However, he did not think that Yu Qian had made a mistake in his decision. After all, this man could kill his previous boss at the age of 15 and spend less than ten years to completely control the underground organization network that covered the world and become the king of this world. His decision had never made any mistakes.

Jayce thought for a long time but could not think of anything. In the end, he gave up. Anyway, he had survived this time. He only needed to strictly follow Yu Qian’s orders.

He was halfway there when Yu Qian’s voice came from the communicator. “Come here.”

Jayce’s heart, which had just relaxed, rose again. Oh no, is the boss preparing to punish me again? 

He walked back nervously and looked at Yu Qian carefully. “Boss, is there anything else you need?”

“Does Xia Wanyuan have a dance scene? Show me.” Yu Qian placed his hand on the piano, and his exquisite cufflinks shone under the light.

“Yes.” Jayce knew that Yu Qian was a little interested in Xia Wanyuan. In order to deal with Yu Qian’s strange request at all times, he specially carried his computer and watched all the television dramas related to Xia Wanyuan. Now, it was easy to find the scene of the Heavenly Spirit Princess dancing in “The Long Ballad”.

This dance was coincidentally the dance after the Heavenly Spirit Princess lost her family and lost all hope in the world. It was clearly an extremely gorgeous makeup and clothes, and her actions were extremely beautiful, but it inexplicably made one feel the pain in her every move.

Yu Qian reached out and pressed the piano button. Music notes began to linger in the room, and the rhythm gradually followed Xia Wanyuan’s dance.

After the song and dance, Yu Qian looked at the surging sea outside the window.

The endless sea swallowed the boundary between heaven and earth, making one feel endless loneliness.

“Do you think I should find someone to dance with?” Yu Qian seemed to be talking to himself. Jayce did not dare to speak. He could not guess Yu Qian’s thoughts, nor did he dare to guess blindly.

In the Wei family’s courtyard, Wei Zimu suddenly relaxed when he heard the news.

Fortunately, it did not succeed.

The phone rang. Wei Zimu frowned, but he still pressed the answer button.

“Brother, are you happy?” Yu Qian’s voice came from the phone.

“What’s there to be happy about? There’s a problem with your operation, I’ve already advised you.” Yu Qian was too contradictory to Wei Zimu. On the one hand, he hated people like Yu Qian extremely. On the other hand, as the younger brother he had owed for a long time, Yu Qian was a sore point that he could not part with.

“It doesn’t matter.” Yu Qian chuckled. “Isn’t Xia Wanyuan in charge of the Wei family? Why is she so at ease handing the Wei family to you?”

“You didn’t have any designs on the Wei family. You once promised me.” Wei Zimu subconsciously became vigilant.

“I’m not interested in the Wei family. I just want to say that you’ve been in China for long enough. It’s time for you to come back.” The sound of a piano came from Yu Qian’s side, making Wei Zimu panic.

“I understand. After I settle the matters here, it will be at most a month.” Wei Zimu knew Yu Qian’s personality. If he did not go back, who knew what Yu Qian could do?

“I’ll wait for you at home.” With that, Yu Qian hung up.

Wei Zimu sighed. He always subconsciously thought about it.

If I had not chased after that lantern when I was five years old and lost Yu Qian, would everything be different now?

Perhaps Yu Qian would be a lively and kind child like Xia Yu, not someone who made one’s heart tremble just by looking at him.

The night deepened, and most people had already fallen asleep.

In the hotel lobby, Lu Li looked at the script while paying attention to the commotion at the door.

She helped Xia Wanyuan throw another sci-fi script of poor quality. Just as she closed the pen, Lu Li saw someone striding in.

“CEO Xuan.” Lu Li picked up the script and welcomed him. The light in her eyes was much brighter than the lights in the hall.

“Little girl, it’s so late, why aren’t you sleeping?” Xuan Sheng had already experienced too much and his mentality was already old. In his opinion, Lu Li was like a child. She was likable, but he did not feel anything for her.

Unlike Xia Wanyuan, who was quiet because of time, making one’s heart flutter with just a glance.

“I was waiting for you. I didn’t see you today.” Lu Li did not hide anything. Since Xuan Sheng had made things clear yesterday, she did not hesitate and said what was on her mind.

]”What’s there to see?” Xuan Sheng smiled. “Let’s go upstairs. The hall is so cold.”

“Mm.” Lu Li nodded and followed Xuan Sheng like a little tail.

It was already very late, and only Lu Li and Xuan Sheng were in the elevator.

Lu Li quietly turned to look at Xuan Sheng.

Although it was very cold outside, Xuan Sheng was still only wearing a thin black coat. The shirt inside was loosely stuck to his body, and his shirt was half buttoned. He was indescribably flirtatious.

Sensing Lu Li’s gaze, Xuan Sheng turned his head and smiled. “What’s wrong, little girl? Am I good-looking?”

Lu Li blinked and suddenly reached out to press the back of her hand against Xuan Sheng’s right cheek before letting go. Lu Li’s eyes were filled with seriousness. “Your temperature is so low. It’s so cold outside. You can wear something thicker.”

When she was young, she liked to wear clothes and rarely played outside. This was how her grandmother took care of her.

Xuan Sheng actually hated touching people, but probably because there was no charm in Lu Li’s eyes, only obvious concern for him. For once, Xuan Sheng did not feel annoyed by Lu Li’s touch.

“Little girl, don’t touch other people’s faces.” Xuan Sheng raised an eyebrow. “Didn’t you listen to what I said yesterday? We’re not the same kind of people.”

At this moment, the elevator door opened. Xuan Sheng protected her with his hand at the side and gestured for Lu Li to go out first.

Lu Li walked out with a stack of scripts. “I listened, but it doesn’t stop me from liking you. Perhaps I won’t like you anymore one day, but not now.”

Xuan Sheng touched his ear stud. Lu Li was an innocent and stubborn person. He really could not do anything to her. “Alright, as you wish. But I’m going to sleep now. Do you want to come with me?”

The corners of Xuan Sheng’s eyes were a little bright, and his words were clearly hinting.

However, to his surprise, Lu Li was neither angry nor provoked by his words. Lu Li was very calm. “When you like me too, I’ll be with you. You don’t like me now.”

With that, Lu Li carried a large pile of things back to her room.

“…” Looking at Lu Li’s departing figure, Xuan Sheng was stunned for once. After a while, a smile appeared in his eyes. “Is this girl really stupid or is she pretending to be stupid?”

However, what he did not see was that after Lu Li entered her room, the things in her hand scattered on the ground. She hugged her head angrily and her entire body was as red as a cooked prawn.

What did I just say? Lu Li’s ears were burning.

This was probably what a girl’s heart was like. If she could not see the person she liked, she would miss him. After seeing the person she liked, she would start to let her imagination run wild after saying a few words.

Lu Li, who had always slept well, could not sleep again. She took her phone and secretly searched for news about Xuan Sheng. In the end, most of the news was negative.

Lu Li looked at it for a long time before she successfully lost sleep.

The next day, Xia Wanyuan had just arrived at the set when Lu Li pulled her to the side mysteriously. “Sister Xia, can I ask you a question?”

“Tell me.” Xia Wanyuan looked at Lu Li’s eyes and could roughly guess what she wanted to ask. It was nothing more than the young girl being tempted and hesitating.
