Awakened Multi-talented Goddess Is Doted

Chapter 205 - The Cunning Li Hanchen



Chapter 205: The Cunning Li Hanchen

Li Hanchen’s blood coursed through his body as he thought about Mu Sheng asking him to spend the night in her room. However, he calmed down when he saw the cool look on Mu Sheng’s face. “What do you mean?”

Mu Sheng pointed at the right side of the bed. Since the bed was massive, there was a lot of space. “If I need you in the middle of the night, I don’t have to call you on the phone.”

Mu Sheng’s ankle was a lot better. She had performed some acupuncture on it in the day and even applied some Chinese medicine on it, so she had a lot of trouble moving.

However, she would probably feel a lot better tomorrow after removing the Chinese medication.

Li Hanchen went quiet before he glanced at Mu Sheng profoundly. Mu Sheng clearly saw a powerless look in his eyes.

Mu Sheng contemplated and wondered if she was too much? Li Hanchen had already been very kind to her, so she seemed to be taking him for granted. Li Hanchen needed to sleep too, so he could not stay up taking care of her. Mu Sheng felt bad thinking about this. “Then why don’t you…”

Before she finished her sentence, Li Hanchen turned to leave. “I will get my pillow and blanket.”

Li Hanchen came back with his things. Mu Sheng had already laid down in bed with only her bright eyes showing.

Li Hanchen felt his heart throbbing. He could already predict it was probably going to be a sleepless night for him.

“Aren’t you going to bed?” Li Hanchen arranged his blankets and looked at Mu Sheng.

Since the bed was massive, there was still a lot of space between them after Li Hanchen lay down beside Mu Sheng.

Mu Sheng pursed her lips and wanted to speak, but she ended up saying nothing. “I’m going to bed.”

Li Hanchen frowned slightly as he reached his hand out to turn off the light. “If you need anything, just wake me up.”

“Uh huh.”

The moment she finished her sentence, the room fell into silence.

Mu Sheng’s faint sweet scent came wafting over when she flipped over. It made Li Hanchen absolutely restless.

Mu Sheng moved again. Li Hanchen looked over and could faintly see her in the dark. “Can’t sleep?”

“It’s not that,” acknowledged Mu Sheng softly.

“Why don’t I tell you a story?” asked Li Hanchen.

“Are you sure?” Even though Mu Sheng did not agree right away, she clearly wanted to hear one.

Li Hanchen smiled in the darkness. “In that case, I will tell you a story.”

Li Hanchen started telling her modern tales.

Mu Sheng’s eyes glinted in the darkness. She was too shy to say that she adored listening to Li Hanchen’s stories.

After all, she had read every Physics and Math book available on the market. Books were just tools to her and were simply vessels for theories and formulas.

It never dawned on her that there were such enjoyable tales out there.

Mu Sheng flipped over and listened to Li Hanchen’s stories.

Li Hanchen lowered his voice slightly, so Mu Sheng instinctively inched closer.

Li Hanchen detected Mu Sheng’s movement and a thought crossed his mind. He made up a story. “Ghosts love coming after people with their legs by the bedside.”

Mu Sheng felt scared. Even though she did not believe in ghosts, she quietly shrank in Li Hanchen’s direction.

Li Hanchen wanted to laugh, but he did not show it. Mu Sheng listened intently as Li Hanchen told her stories.

Before she knew it, Mu Sheng had fallen asleep.

Li Hanchen called Mu Sheng’s name softly in the darkness. He finally went to bed when she did not answer him.

Mu Xiao finally regained consciousness in the morning after getting treated in the ER department all night at Metropolis Hospital.

Mu Xiao’s eyes turned teary when she saw Zhang Man and Mu Ting.

Since she was weak, she looked particularly pitiful with her eyes teary.

“My poor baby.” Zhang Man sat beside her and wiped tears from her eyes as she glanced at Mu Xiao.

Mu Xiao caught onto her mother’s hints and cried even harder. “Dad, I am so sorry that I have such a weak constitution. I am sorry for worrying you.”

“Don’t say that. Just focus on getting well and stop worrying. I will definitely find a cure for this.” Mu Ting felt sorry for Mu Xiao when he saw her in this state. After all, he had doted on Mu Xiao all these years.

“Okay.” Sadness swept across Mu Xiao’s eyes as she spoke, “It was all my fault. I was just worried about missing Master Ouyang’s disciple selection performance.”

“Master Ouyang?” Even though Mu Ting did not pay attention to the music industry, he knew about the Ouyang family.

Zhang Man went over and said, “That’s the one! He is a world-class musician.”

“Ouyang He?” A look of delight swept across Mu Ting’s eyes. “Are you talking about Ouyang He from the Ouyang family? Do you think Xiaoxiao can become his disciple?”

“I’m not sure either, but he sent someone to check with the school about our daughter.” Zhang Man felt proud as she spoke. No one else in the country had the same honor as Mu Xiao. Mu Xiao was so brilliant that Master Ouyang talked about her.

“Okay.” Mu Ting felt particularly happy when he heard what his wife said. He looked at Mu Xiao proudly. “Don’t worry. I will find some way to ensure you get well.”

Mu Ting plotted about how to get Mu Sheng to hand her organs over to Mu Xiao.

Zhang Man and Mu Xiao smiled at each other knowingly when they got what they wanted.

——

At 9:00 am the next day, Mu Sheng finally woke up. The moment she woke up, she saw Li Hanchen’s gorgeous profile.

The morning light had scattered on him, making him glow. He was absolutely stunning, so Mu Sheng could not help taking a second look at him.

Li Hanchen swallowed. “If you are up, then get up.”

Li Hanchen turned his head over. His eyes were red and he looked exhausted.

“Didn’t you sleep well last night?” asked Mu Sheng automatically.

Li Hanchen glanced at Mu Sheng. “I have trouble sleeping on other people’s beds. I won’t sleep here again in the future.”

Mu Sheng nodded. “Okay.”

Although Mu Sheng felt Li Hanchen was fussy, she felt guilty that he did not get any rest.

Li Hanchen had lost sleep because he had spent the night taking care of her.

Mu Sheng sat up and checked her ankle.

Mu Sheng had applied Chinese medicine on it last night. She reached her hands out to remove the medication. After applying it all day and night, her skin was slightly red. Since her skin was fair and translucent, it made her appear particularly vulnerable.

Mu Sheng moved her ankle a little and genuinely felt much better. She could finally walk today.

She turned to look at Li Hanchen. “I can already…”

Before she could finish her sentence, Li Hanchen already darted out of the room quickly.

Mu Sheng thought to herself. Was Li Hanchen angry?

By the time Mu Sheng arrived downstairs for breakfast, Li Hanchen had already reverted to normal. He even gave Mu Sheng a gift box.

“What’s this?” Mu Sheng opened the box curiously. It contained a beautiful thin rose pink bracelet encrusted with tiny diamonds and dazzled under the sun.

It had a minimalistic design and the diamonds looked tasteful. Mu Sheng loved it right away.

“Didn’t I promise you a gift yesterday? Why don’t you put it on?”

“Okay.” It was the first time Mu Sheng ever officially received a gift from anyone else, so she put the bracelet on carefully.

“Does it look good?” Mu Sheng raised her hand and showed Li Hanchen her wrist.

“Uh huh.” Li Hanchen lowered his eyes and glanced at his empty right wrist.

He was not wearing anything on his wrist. The fine bracelet he had worn for decades was no longer there.

——

Mu Sheng drove over to the talent agency after breakfast.

Since Mu Sheng had sprained her ankle, Jiang Tian did not give her any work. Now that Mu Sheng’s ankle had recovered, she came over to see if there was any work for her.

After all, she had a family to feed and had to buy a place of her own.

The moment Mu Sheng entered the talent agency, she sensed something different about the place.

She glanced around and noticed a lot of floral baskets in there.

“Sheng, Tian prepared flowers for you. He says we need to welcome the future gaming champion back to work with a bang.” Tang Tiantian looked speechless. Jiang Tian was always a straight guy, so she did not think she would ever see the day when he acted like a fanboy.

Mu Sheng went quiet as she looked around. “Where is he?”

“He wanted to welcome you personally, but Lay’s called about signing a contract with you, so he went to handle it. He told me to wait for you here.”

“Is there any work today?”

“Uh huh.” Tang Tiantian took out Mu Sheng’s schedule. “We are going to audition for an entertainment program today.”

Tang Tiantian had contacted the production team for “A Journey Through Food”. They provided an address and told her to bring Mu Sheng over for an audition today.

“Let’s go.”

“Sure thing.”

The production team for “A Journey Through Food” was sitting together discussing who to invite to the program.

Since they were the most popular online entertainment program related to food, they had to pick a superstar.

Also, even superstars were lining up in droves to appear on the program.

After all, the program had a massive following. Everyone in the industry knew that they would become a hit if they appeared on the show. No one could say no to success.

“Who is coming for the audition today?”

“A small-time actress, but she is very good-looking.” The production manager came up to the director with a few pictures.

The director promptly rolled his eyes. The production manager was a straight guy. Everyone knew about his aesthetic judgment.

As long as the women had a sharp chin, big breasts, and double eyelids, he felt they were gorgeous.

The director said no the moment the production manager said she was a beauty. “What’s the point of being pretty? Do we look like a beauty pageant to you? We are an entertainment program! She has to be interesting! No matter how pretty she is, it is no use if she stands there like a blockhead. When will you learn?”

The director was reprimanding his staff members when someone suddenly walked in. “The people have come in for their audition.”

The director waved his hand. “Tell her to leave. This is infuriating. If I don’t keep an eye for one moment, you keep making trouble for me.”
