Chapter 1307: The Wedding (2)
Shen Liangchuan had a faint smile on his face as he observed the blushing Qiao Lian, lowering her head and walking away at a quickened pace.
He knew she was embarrassed.
Looking down, he also quickened his pace and caught up to her.
They exited through the back door, got into the van and headed back to the hotel.
After ensuring that all the CQ team members were back, Qiao Lian washed up.
By the time she walked out of the washroom and picked up her cell phone, she realized that it was flooding with messages.
She had been mentioned and tagged countless times on Weibo, and even as she picked up the cell phone, it kept vibrating non-stop.
She logged out of Weibo and sat on the bed in a daze, recalling Shen Liangchuan’s proposal earlier today.
The proposal had been completely unexpected and it had caught her off guard.
Even now, she felt like it was a dream and she hadn’t quite woken up from it.
When Shen Liangchuan walked out of the bathroom after his shower, she was still in a daze.
As he came near her, she caught a whiff of the fresh after-shower scent. She looked up immediately and noticed that he had a towel wrapped around his waist. He stood in front of her, bent over and lowered. Looking into her eyes, he asked, “What’s the matter?”
Since he had just showered, some water drops were rolling down his face from his wet hair. They fell on his bare chest and continued their journey down, finally disappearing into the towel.
Feeling the urge of that temptation, she coughed and quickly looked away.
Then as though remembering something, she suddenly looked up at Shen Liangchuan. She asked, “Outside the restroom today, King pointed at The Deputy Godfather and said something. What did he say?”
Shen Liangchuan hadn’t expected that question from her.
He paused, wondering if he should tell her.
And at this point, Qiao Lian’s cell phone rang.
She looked down at the screen. It was Su Penghao. His voice sounded from the other end of the line the moment she picked it up, “The Deputy Godfather has gone nuts. He says he wants to tell us something and wants you to come over. And if Brother Shen can, he should come over too.”
Qiao Lian nodded and replied, “We’ll be over right away.”
She quickly got changed after hanging up, and left the room with Shen Liangchuan.
The team was staying in the same hotel. As they walked along the corridor, Qiao Lian turned to Shen Liangchuan and asked, “I’m guessing you know what he wants to tell us.”
The man was silent for a moment and said, “Let’s just listen to what he has to say.”
She nodded as they arrived at Su Penghao’s room.
Su Penghao was staying in a suite, hence the team members were all gathered in the living area, with The Deputy Godfather standing in the centre. They saw the couple walk in.
He finally took a deep breath and said, “I’ve asked all of you to come over because there is something I need to tell you. I can’t just pretend it didn’t happen, because it’s eating away at my conscience.”
“Before the match today, King approached me saying that he’d pay me two million if I lost the match. That was why I chose such a champion in the first segment.”
The Godfather was immediately furious when he heard this. He jumped onto his feet and drew his posture straight, saying, “Brother, what did you just say?! Say it again!”
The Deputy Godfather hung his head and continued, “I’ve made a mistake. I know now I was wrong. That was why in the next two matches, I tried my best to salvage the situation. But even though we won, I’m unable to get over my mistake. So I’m coming clean now and I will accept whatever decision the club takes.”
