Hadn’t they said that Best Actor Shen had gone to the changing room?!

Why was he still in the powder room?!

Qiao Lian exchanged a desperate glance with the junior assistant and both of them simultaneously lowered their heads, like obedient children.

They shuffled their feet and moved back to the doorway.

Once they had reached the doorway, she cleared her throat and the junior assistant opened the door with the slightest motion. With a swish, she was gone.

Just as Qiao Lian was about to do the same, Shen Liangchuan suddenly spoke. “Hook up with male idols?”

Her body stiffened.

She immediately looked up and their eyes met.

At once, Qiao Lian had the urge to cry.

Why had they found themselves in such a situation?

Given what had happened, shouldn’t they both have cried when they finally saw each other? Shouldn’t they be feeling bitter and sad?

But what was this awkwardness and embarrassment about?

Qiao Lian cast her gaze down and cleared her throat, willing herself to handle this logically. She looked up at Shen Liangchuan and said, “Emmm… have you been sleeping well?”

“Uh-huh.” Shen Liangchuan replied, “Very well.”

Qiao Lian sighed with relief. She had always been worried about him overworking himself.

Her gaze wandered around the room awkwardly and then fell on the blank wall behind him. “Emmm… is Mom doing well?”

“Not well.”

Surprised, she paused for a moment and asked, “What? Has her heart been causing trouble?”

“No, but ever since you left, I haven’t heard her laugh once.”

Qiao Lian felt a sharp pang of pain in her heart and she looked away. “It will be ok, there’s Nuannuan, who can take my place in keeping her company. She’ll be fine soon.”

A silence greeted that remark.
