Chapter 136: Jealousy
The hacker had never received such a strange order in his life. Since Li Hanchen wanted it done, the hacker did it without any objection.
Shen Lin furtively looked at Qin Kai. “Bro, what’s going on?”
Qin Kai adjusted his spectacles and didn’t want to talk to Shen Lin.
Shen Lin went speechless. He gritted his teeth and said, “You stuffy old geezer.”
It was simply annoying. Would it kill Qin Kai to just tell Shen Lin what was going on?!!
Back home, Mu Sheng went to bed after she was done streaming. The postponed meeting at Continent M proceeded to commence.
After five long hours of meeting, Li Hanchen closed the folder and said, “That’s it.”
After everyone left the room, Shen Lin saw how exhausted Li Hanchen was and felt worried. “Boss, are you okay? Arrangements have been made so that you can rest. Shall we go over now?”
Li Hanchen stood up. “I want to go home.”
Shen Lin was startled. The flight would take over ten hours, and Li Hanchen had just finished such a long meeting. How could he leave for home now? Was there something important waiting for him to handle back home?
Qin Kai was unsurprised. “I have already made arrangements so that we can go back right away.”
Shen Lin went quiet.

Since Mu Sheng had finished filming her parts more or less and she had nothing planned, she slept until after 10:00 am before she finally woke up.
Now that heating was installed throughout the villa, Mu Sheng came downstairs for breakfast dressed in just a spaghetti strap nightdress. Since Li An had already left for school at this hour, only Mu Sheng and Auntie Lin were at home.
The moment she opened her bedroom door, she unexpectedly saw a pair of dark eyes.
It was none other than Li Hanchen.
“You.”
“You.”
“You.”
Li Hanchen and Mu Sheng spoke in unison before Li Hanchen glanced at Mu Sheng.
She was dressed in a knee-length spaghetti strap dress with her shoulders and calves showing. Its form-fitting design brought out her slender waist and her ample chest.
Even though Li Hanchen usually looked composed, his eyes seemed to be on fire as he looked to the side awkwardly with his ears slightly flushed. “It’s very cold today. Why don’t you get your coat?”
“Okay.” Mu Sheng also felt awkward, so she hurriedly closed the door before getting her coat.
Mu Sheng walked over to him. “Where did you go?”
“Continent M.”
“So far?” Mu Sheng naturally knew how far Continent M was from here. Considering the distance, Li Hanchen must have traveled back without any rest.
“It’s not that far,” replied Li Hanchen as he peeled an egg. “How did your filming go? Did you get along with your colleagues?”
Mu Sheng took a bite of a small steamed bun and nodded. “It was okay. My colleagues were pretty nice.”
Li Hanchen’s hand froze briefly as his eyes gleamed. “I don’t know much about the entertainment industry. Why don’t you tell me a little more about your colleagues?”
Mu Sheng thought about her colleagues and felt that she spoke to Qiao Siyu slightly more, so she said, “The male lead is nice. Also, his acting is good…”
Li Hanchen tightened his grip on the egg slightly. He kept his eyes lowered, and they looked a degree colder now. “Do you have a good impression of him?”
Mu Sheng felt he was merely asking if she thought Qiao Siyu was nice, so she nodded and said, “Uh huh.”
The egg got crushed into pieces as Li Hanchen threw its remnants into the bin. “This egg is spoiled. I will peel another one for you.”
