Chapter 1002: The Love Rival Arrives (7)
He took a deep breath and continued, “I’m Lot’s top gamer, I simply have to have a match with him!”
Qiao Lian threw Shen Liangchuan a curious glance at this point and asked Prince, “When did you guys play a solo match?”
Prince replied impatiently, “I’m just asking if you know him and know how to get in touch with him. Why do you have so many questions?”
Annoyed by his attitude, Qiao Lian simply replied, “I don’t know him.”
“Very well then!” Prince said and was about to continue, when he noticed Shen Liangchuan’s icy stare. At once, he had the intelligence to shut up
Prince settled back into his seat and yawned, as the bus drove through the road.
Gamers like him mostly had a messy lifestyle. He supposedly slept during daytime, so he soon drifted off.
When he fell asleep, Qiao Lian finally found some peace and quiet in the bus.
She let out a long sigh of relief.
Perhaps she hadn’t managed to rest well, sharing the bed with Shen Liangchuan last night. Or perhaps it was just being pregnant that made people sleepy in general.
As she sat back, looking at her cell phone screen, she soon started battling her heavy eyelids.
She nodded off a few times.
Finally, unable to fight it any longer, she fell asleep.
When Shen Liangchuan turned his head and saw that she had fallen asleep, he moved in closer and gently nudged her head to rest on his shoulder.
She finally was sleeping.
Shen Liangchuan, however, frowned as he stared at her with a puzzled expression.
Qiao Lian had never had the habit of taking afternoon naps.
Yet now, she seemed exhausted and to be sleeping without a care in the world.
He also recalled when they were filming, how she had been continuously yawning.
Was life without him too tough for her?
His heart strangely contracted with a dull pain at this thought. He cast his gaze down.

When Qiao Lian woke up, she found that they had arrived at the hotel.
She quickly straightened herself up. Looking down the bus aisle in a daze, she could see everyone was getting ready to alight.
However, they didn’t move to do this because Shen Liangchuan was still on the bus.
After all, among everyone in the bus, he held the highest status in the entertainment industry.
Realizing the situation, he leaned over and whispered in her ear, “See you at the hotel’s south entrance.”
Then he got off the bus.
Following this, everyone got into a line and filed out of the coach.
When Qiao Lian walked past Prince’s seat, she saw that the man was still sound asleep.
His face was buried in the sweater he was clutching, and his head was slightly tilted. The picture of innocence and harmlessness.
Without waking him up, Qiao Lian walked past and got off the bus.
After she had alighted, she handed her suitcase to the junior assistant and said, “I need to go and get something done. Could you help me take this to your room? I’ll go look for you tonight when I’m back.”
The junior assistant nodded.
Having done this, she spoke with one of the crew workers and ascertained that there was nothing planned in the evening. Then she headed towards the south entrance.
At the south entrance, a black sedan had pulled to a stop.
As she approached it, two honks came from the vehicle.
She quickened her steps and reached out to open the back seat’s door. Indeed, Shen Liangchuan was sitting there. She got into the car.
They drove to the filming set and, when they arrived, the car pulled to a slow stop. As Qiao Lian turned to look around, she saw that not far away a few men had surrounded a woman.
The woman looked angry and spoke sharply, “What do you think you’re doing? Get out of my way!”
That voice… It was Shi Nianyao!
