Awakened Multi-talented Goddess Is Doted

Chapter 211 - Sleeping With Li Hanchen

Chapter 211: Sleeping With Li Hanchen

Mu Sheng turned her head and saw Li Hanchen walking over with a box in his hand.

Mu Sheng wanted to say something. However, she swallowed her words when she recalled his poor attitude earlier.

Li Hanchen walked up to Mu Sheng and squatted in front of her before pulling her legs and taking off her shoes.

Mu Sheng was caught by surprise by Li Hanchen’s actions and instinctively wanted to pull her legs back, but he held her ankles and stopped her. “Don’t move.”

Li Hanchen took out a new pair of shoes and put them on for Mu Sheng.

She watched as Li Hanchen patiently put on the shoes and forgot about the fight they were having.

She thought about her past life.

Mu Sheng often came to the seaside to work with the national technology team.

There was always a lot of sand on the beach, and she would get a lot of it inside her shoes. Despite the attentive care from her staff, no one caught on to this detail.

It did not dawn on her that Li Hanchen would notice such a minor detail and carefully change her shoes.

After Li Hanchen helped Mu Sheng change her shoes, he raised his head and saw Mu Sheng looking at him innocently like a deer with her eyes gleaming.

“Why are you looking at me? I thought you didn’t want to talk to me.” Li Hanchen stood up.

Mu Sheng placed a cherry in front of Li Hanchen. “Not anymore.”

Li Hanchen smiled as he ate the cherry from Mu Sheng’s hand.

He did not like eating fruit, but he felt cherries tasted great this time.

The entourage of staff walked over and placed the food on the dining table.

Each dish looked exquisite and delectable.

Since Mu Sheng was already hungry, she felt famished when she saw them.

“Eat up.” Li Hanchen handed a pair of chopsticks to Mu Sheng.

“Uh huh.”

Halfway through dinner, Li An suddenly called.

He wanted to share the joy with his older brother when he saw Mu Sheng come in champion. However, Li Hanchen was nowhere to be seen when he got home.

Li An’s voice came the moment he accepted the video call.

“Big Bro, Sis-in-Law came in champion. Did you know?”

“Yes, I do,” answered Li Hanchen mildly.

“Then when are you coming back?” Li An picked up his chopsticks, took a piece of pork ribs, and waved it into the camera. “Auntie Lin’s pork ribs are excellent.”

“Tomorrow.”

“Tomorrow?” Li An stopped chewing the food altogether. “Where are you?”

Mu Sheng’s voice could suddenly be heard. “Hanchen, pass me the dessert.”

“Uh huh.”

The camera angle changed as Li Hanchen moved.

Li An finally saw everything. The food sitting in front of Li Hanchen was simply exquisite and instantly got Li An’s attention.

He glanced at his pork ribs before looking at Li Hanchen’s food and instantly felt upset.

Although Auntie Lin made great food, he also wanted to try something new!

“Big Bro, where are you?” asked Li An resentfully.

“Korea.”

Li An went speechless and felt even more miserable. “Why didn’t you take me along with you?”

“I have to go.” Li Hanchen was absolutely heartless.

“Okay.” Li An pouted.

His older brother was simply too much. “Then come back soon. Big Bro, remember to bring me some good food. I heard that Korean…”

Just as Li An was about to give Li Hanchen a list of things to buy, Li Hanchen hung up the phone.

Li An went speechless as he looked at his dark phone screen. He was in utter disbelief. His older brother was becoming more heartless by the day!

Li An ate three pieces of pork ribs huffily to soothe his hurt ego.

Meanwhile, at the restaurant…

The restaurant became a lot quieter after he ended the call with Li An. Li Hanchen and Mu Sheng ate quietly.

This was not only a restaurant but also a hotel, so they spent the night here after having dinner.

“How do you do?” said the manager to Li Hanchen reverently. “We have prepared a room for you. This way, please.”

The moment the manager finished his sentence, Li Hanchen glanced at Mu Sheng. Since she did not object, he veered his eyes.

The hotel was underwater, so they could see sea plants, coral, and all kinds of fish when they entered the room.

Mu Sheng felt intrigued as she stood at the window and looked outside.

Li Hanchen waved at the manager, and he left the room.

“Shall I get another room? Li Hanchen walked up beside Mu Sheng.

Mu Sheng was puzzled. “Why?”

Li Hanchen looked at Mu Sheng. “Nothing. In that case, I won’t bother.”

Mu Sheng finally knew what Li Hanchen meant at bedtime.

The hotel bed was not as big as the bed at home.

The bed she had at home was enough for four or five people. However, the hotel bed could only accommodate two.

It was unavoidable that they had to sleep close to each other.

Mu Sheng finally felt awkward. She could smell Li Hanchen’s cool pine scent, so she retreated slightly.

Li Hanchen looked at her when he detected her movement. “Do you want me to get another room?”

“It’s fine.” If she insisted, it would make her seem fussy.

Mu Sheng buried her head under the blanket so that only her bright eyes could be seen. “I am going to bed.”

“Okay.” Li Hanchen nodded. The light in his deep eyes inexplicably made her blush.

Mu Sheng automatically buried herself under the blanket even deeper. Li Hanchen felt tickled when he saw this.

It was undoubtedly hard for people to change their habits quickly.

Since Mu Sheng was accustomed to sleeping on a huge bed at home, she automatically flipped to the side. The moment she did, she ended up right beside Li Hanchen.

Li Hanchen was not asleep yet, so he immediately opened his eyes when he detected her movement.

He looked sideways and noticed Mu Sheng’s blanket had fallen off slightly. It was cold at night, so Mu Sheng was trembling a little.

Li Hanchen looked at her deeply.

He was in a dilemma about whether he should be a gentleman.

Li Hanchen eventually decided to be an animal.

He lifted a corner of his blanket so that heat from under the blanket kept radiating towards Mu Sheng.

It was human instinct to stay warm when it was cold outside. Now that there was a source of heat, Mu Sheng instinctively inched towards it.

The moment she moved, she immediately got under Li Hanchen’s blanket.

Li Hanchen put down the blanket with Mu Sheng’s soft warm body sleeping beside him. After tucking in Mu Sheng, he wanted to sleep.

However, Mu Sheng seemed to have discovered an even warmer source of heat and hugged Li Hanchen by the waist before she curled up in his arms. She even rubbed herself against him unknowingly.

Li Hanchen was briefly stunned before he lowered his head and glanced at Mu Sheng.

Light gleamed in his eyes. “You were the one who hugged me.”

The moment he finished his sentence, Li Hanchen embraced Mu Sheng by the waist with his head leaning against her head. Li Hanchen stopped moving as he quietly fell asleep with Mu Sheng in his arms.

The night passed peacefully.

The moment Mu Sheng woke up the next day, she detected something wrong. It felt unusually warm under the blanket. She opened her eyes and saw Li Hanchen’s well-chiseled face and could smell the faint scent of his body wash.

She went speechless.

Mu Sheng turned to see that she had thrown herself into his arms. She felt absolutely annoyed by herself. She would have agreed to get another room if she knew the bed was so small.

Mu Sheng let go of Li Hanchen’s waist and wanted to secretly leave.

The moment she moved, she detected Li Hanchen holding her tightly at the waist with his powerful arms.

Mu Sheng had no choice but to push Li Hanchen.

“Li Hanchen, wake up.”

Li Hanchen was already awake. He opened his eyes to look at Mu Sheng in surprise and let go of her. “What are you doing under my blanket?”

Mu Sheng’s ears blushed as she moved back under her blanket. “I… I don’t know either. Even if I was asleep, you could have woken me up.”

Li Hanchen watched as Mu Sheng’s ears blushed crimson, and an innocent look swept across his eyes. “I was sleeping too.”

“Okay.”

“Do you know how much you move around when you are asleep?” Li Hanchen put on a cool straight face as he pretended to tell Mu Sheng about it seriously.

“Uh huh.” Mu Sheng found this strange. She did not recall moving so much in the past.

In her past life, she often spent the night sleeping on the floor with her staff when she was out at work, but she never encountered this problem before.

“Don’t share the bed with anyone else. You will end up disturbing others. I’m okay with it. If it were anyone else, they are bound to get annoyed.” Li Hanchen sat up and reminded Mu Sheng in a serious tone.

“Got it.” Mu Sheng nodded.

Li Hanchen finally got up happily. Just as he was about to leave, Mu Sheng said, “I am sorry to disturb you. From now on, I won’t spend the night with you. I will get my own room.”

Li Hanchen turned to look at her, but she had already gotten up to wash up.

The plane landed at 11:00 am in the capital on the same morning.

Mu Sheng’s fans were In the airport waiting for her with banners and flowers.

Mu Sheng walked out with Li Hanchen following behind her.

“God Mu!” The fans raised their posters of Mu Sheng and encircled her.

“God Mu, you are awesome!” The fans wanted to congratulate Mu Sheng.

Mu Sheng nodded slightly and accepted the flowers from her fans.

Everyone walked out in an orderly manner.

The fans thought Mu Sheng would be cold and distant and did not dare to talk to her until someone finally bravely asked a question. The moment Mu Sheng answered the question, everyone felt hopeful and kept asking her questions curiously.

The fans reluctantly left the airport parking lot after Mu Sheng left.

“Wow! God Mu is gorgeous! She looks even prettier in person!”

“I thought she would ignore us. Even though she looks cool, she turned out quite nice. Oh god! I think I am in love with her.”

“Everyone loves her, okay? From now on, she is my wife!”

The moment the fan finished his sentence, he felt a draft on his nape. The atmosphere felt strangely tense, so he glanced sideways and saw a pair of glacial eyes looking at him.

The fan felt puzzled. Had he offended this cold handsome young man? He quietly veered his eyes and swallowed the words at the tip of his tongue.

——

“Sheng, you were brilliant!” Tang Tiantian’s eyes lit up when she saw Mu Sheng at the talent agency. “I tell you. Tian nearly broke his favorite mug because he got too excited watching you game.”

Jiang Tian already felt embarrassed, but Tang Tiantian had to tell Mu Sheng about it. He glanced at her and said, “Shut up. I will dock your salary.”

Tang Tiantian quietly closed her mouth and sneered Jiang Tian in her heart for being an unreasonable boss.

Jiang Tian looked at Mu Sheng with admiration. “You were awesome. I have decided to treat everyone to steamboat to celebrate your win!”

Tang Tiantian went speechless as she glanced at Jiang Tian. “What happened? Weren’t you planning on treating us to Fragrance Restaurant?”

Jiang Tian cleared his throat. “Well… I spent the budget on hiring a professional photographer for Mu Sheng. All you can get is a steamboat. Take it or leave it.”

“I’ll take it!” As long as they did not have to pay for dinner, it was considered a win. Tang Tiantian knew this well.

Only Li An and Li Hanchen quietly sat in the villa.

Li Hanchen glanced at him. “Are you three years old?”

Li An felt even angrier. He took his bowl and sat at the far end of the dining table.

He had decided not to be friends with Li Hanchen from now on. His older brother did not bring him snacks and now even his sister-in-law was gone.

——

Meanwhile, the pot bubbled with steam at the steamboat restaurant.

A strong fragrance rose from the pot and Tang Tiantian hurriedly placed food inside.

Jiang Tian raised a glass of Coca-Cola. “Come on. Let’s have a toast.”

The bubbles in the cups rose as the three of them clinked glasses.

Jiang Tian smiled as he looked at Mu Sheng. “Thank you for joining us as our first artist. From now on, we need to work hard together. Trust me. Things will get better.”

“Uh huh! Tian, I am counting on you to buy my dream home in the capital and rise to success!” Tang Tiantian nodded hard. Although she always teased Jiang Tian, she respected him a lot in her heart.

After all, it was not easy for him to start up a talent agency in the capital. Although Tang Tiantian kept threatening to quit, she did not really want to leave the company.

Mu Sheng drank some Coca-Cola.

Tang Tiantian placed a lot of meat in Mu Sheng’s bowl. Mu Sheng mimicked Tang Tiantian and dipped the meat in sauce before she ate it.

It was a completely new dining experience for her, but it tasted delicious.

Jiang Tian and Tang Tiantian shared the latest gossip in the entertainment industry with Mu Sheng as they bickered.

The soup in the pot bubbled, and steam rose into the air as they laughed happily over dinner.

Initially, Mu Sheng had randomly chosen to work with this talent agency.

However, she started to feel it was the right choice over time after spending some time with them.

She genuinely liked the atmosphere at work.

It felt as though it was the first time she had any friends.

After dinner, Tang Tiantian and Jiang Tian brought Mu Sheng to the karaoke.

Mu Sheng’s voice was angelic, but Jiang Tian was tone-deaf. Tang Tiantian felt she was about to die any moment.

After spending the night celebrating, it was already almost midnight when Mu Sheng got home.

Mu Sheng walked into the living room and saw Li Hanchen sitting on the couch.

Li Hanchen was holding the paper in his hands and dressed in home wear, but it was unable to conceal his innate dignified aura. He raised his head when he heard her. “Are you home already?”

“Uh huh.” Mu Sheng nodded. “Why aren’t you sleeping yet?”

Li Hanchen put down the paper. “I couldn’t sleep.”

Mu Sheng walked upstairs to her room. “I’m going up. Have an early night.”

Li Hanchen remained quiet. He had been reading the paper in his room for over three hours waiting for her.

After Mu Sheng disappeared from the corridor, Li Hanchen finally went upstairs. Li An walked out sleepily with a cup in hand when Li Hanchen went by his room. Li An promptly rubbed his eyes when he saw Li Hanchen. “Big Bro, why are you still up?”

Li Hanchen glanced at him. “Have you finished those test papers?”

Li An woke up right away. Why did his older brother suddenly bring this up? What did he want?

Li An had not started on those tests yet. Since he was worried Li Hanchen would scold him, he lied, “I have finished everything.”

“I see.” Li Hanchen nodded. “I will get Qin Kai to get you two more sets tomorrow.”

The moment he finished his sentence, Li Hanchen walked past Li An. He disregarded the hopeless look in his little brother’s round eyes as he headed to his room.

Sure enough, his mood lifted quite a bit.

Sadly, Li An was so upset that he did not feel like drinking anymore. He scratched his head powerlessly. “Why couldn’t he just leave? Why did I come out to get some water?”

Thanks to the water, he would have two more sets of revision material waiting for him tomorrow!

——

Although it was late at night, some parts of town were still full of life.

Ruan Yingying leaned against an investor’s shoulder as music reverberated throughout the private room. “Mr. Wang, who do you think should appear on the show? Me or Mu Sheng?”

Mr. Wang glanced at Ruan Yingying and thought about Mu Sheng’s beautiful face. However, he chose to take the side of the woman right in front of him. “I think you suit the show better of course. It was the show’s loss not to choose you.”

“Then what should I do?” Tears welled up in Ruan Yingying’s eyes. “My talent agency is completely useless. They don’t care about getting me on this show at all. I can only blame it on bad luck now that the talent agency doesn’t give a hoot about me.”

“That’s nonsense.” Mr. Wang placed his hand around Ruan Yingying’s back. “Don’t worry. With me around, I will ensure that your next show is a high-budget production and get the best director in the industry to film it.”

“Oh really?” Ruan Yingying looked at Mr. Wang in delight as she automatically leaned against him.

Mr. Wang sensed Ruan Yingying’s chest against him and felt aroused. “That goes without saying. I will make up for this. It is just an entertainment program. Just let her have it. I will give you an even better project.”

“In that case, thank you, Mr. Wang.” Ruan Yingying beamed brightly at Mr. Wang now that they had come to an agreement.

Before long, the lights went out in the room.

Meanwhile, at the Mu residence…

News about Mu Sheng could be seen all over the internet recently. After seeing the news, the secretary shared the news with Mu Ting.

Mu Ting was far from proud when he saw Mu Sheng gaming.

Instead, he simply felt utterly embarrassed.

In Mu Ting’s opinion, a good girl ought to attend a good university and study hard. Also, she should be poised and graceful.

Mu Xiao was considered a good girl.

It was simply outrageous for her to game.

Even though people did not know Mu Sheng was Mu Ting’s daughter, he hated what she was doing.

He called the secretary and said, “Call Mu Sheng’s talent agency and tell them to make her stop her live telecasts and bar her from appearing on entertainment programs. She is an utter embarrassment to the family!”

All these years, no one in the clan had ever become a celebrity! If Mu Sheng resorted to using her beauty to make a living, he would never be able to hold his head up high in the family ever again.

The secretary acknowledged him and quickly sent Jiang Tian an email.

Jiang Tian saw the email the next morning.

Jiang Tian did not know whether to cry or to laugh when he saw the message. How could gaming and being an artist be considered outrageous in this time and age? Did he think he was in ancient times?

Jiang Tian took a screenshot of the email and sent it to Mu Sheng. Mu Sheng simply said, “Ignore him.”

Jiang Tian blacklisted the sender of the email the moment he heard Mu Sheng’s response.

Meanwhile, the secretary attempted to contact Jiang Tian when he did not respond only to realize she was blacklisted.

Mu Ting was infuriated when he learned of this. Since he was accustomed to getting his way, he could not take it when Mu Sheng challenged his authority repeatedly.

He called the secretary over. “Bring the car over. We are going to the Li residence.”

“Yes, Mr. Mu.”

——

Ever since Mu Sheng came in champion for the World Gaming Masters, she was tentatively unable to find the time to do live telecasts on Cat Live. However, the number of people following her channel kept skyrocketing.

Inside the gaming circles, a lot of people registered for accounts at Cat Live to see Mu Sheng be it out of pure admiration or for her beauty.

“I think we have already hit all our targets for this year,” said an employee to the operations manager after briefly calculating the KPI. They had successfully hit their targets nine months ahead of time. This was simply a miracle.

The operations manager looked at the data with his eyes beaming. “Sigh. I really made the right choice to sign Mu Sheng. Enough. Stop worrying about your bonuses. Go on.”

After driving his employee away, the operations manager happily called Mu Sheng.

“Hello?” Mu Sheng was in the hospital when she received a call.

“Mu Sheng, congratulations on coming in as champion. The company Is planning on doing an offline event with the professional teams, so I hope you can join us. Don’t worry. I will do my best and fight to get you the best fees.”

Mu Sheng was initially disinterested but changed her mind when she heard about the fees. “When is it?”

“Probably next month. Didn’t you say you had to film a show? We can do it after you come back.”

“No problem.” Mu Sheng nodded before hanging up the phone.

Mu Sheng put aside her phone and changed into her surgery gown.

Li Hanchen was going under the knife for the first surgery today. After stabilizing his condition over a long period of time, he was finally able to do the first surgery.

Since a lot of injuries had accumulated over the years for Li Hanchen, it took him a long time to get in shape before he could undergo an operation and eradicate his illness for good.

Meanwhile, world-class experts were sitting in the hospital conference room and looking at each other with anticipation and curiosity.
