After Being Cyber Bullied, She Reveals Her True Identity-Chapter 473 - 468: Brother Qi!

"Mr. Qi, what are you doing?" Shen Yan, drying her hair, came out to see Qi Si standing in front of her suitcase. Thinking of the things inside the suitcase, she felt a momentary panic.

Qi Si turned that somber, handsome face toward her, his dark eyes unblinkingly staring at her.

This made Shen Yan think that the items she hid in the suitcase had been exposed, making her anxious, and her complexion even turned somewhat gray.

"Seems like someone’s looking for you."

Qi Si pointed to the cellphone on the table.

Shen Yan uttered an "ah."

It was a false alarm.

Shen Yan walked over and picked up the cellphone, seeing a message from Li Yanbai, she was somewhat surprised.

As Shen Yan opened her phone, Qi Si took advantage of his height to sneak a peek, "Is there something wrong?"

Shen Yan didn’t notice his little maneuver and said, "It’s a message from Brother Li asking me if I’m participating in that variety show, he already signed his contract. I didn’t expect someone at his caliber, almost on the level of a movie star, would join such a variety show. Brother Li is quite nice."

Shen Yan had a favorable impression of Li Yanbai.

Hearing Shen Yan refer to Li Yanbai as "brother", Qi Si’s handsome brows furrowed tightly.

Calling him felt distant, yet an outsider received such an honor; to say Qi Si didn’t care would be a lie.

Shen Yan put down her phone, "Mr. Qi, aren’t you going to wash up?"

Turning around, Shen Yan finally noticed that Qi Si’s mood seemed a bit off and looked up at him puzzledly.

Qi Si still bore his usual expressionless face, looking very stern and unapproachable.

For Shen Yan, Qi Si was really no different than a paper tiger.

"Do you have a good relationship with him?"

"Not really."

Shen Yan wasn’t foolish, how could she not hear the danger in those words?

"Really? But you call him Brother Li."

"Everyone younger in the crew calls him that," Shen Yan caught on, let her gaze drop, and suddenly felt like laughing.

Was Qi Si actually jealous?

"Yanyan, you’ve never called me..."

"..."

Shen Yan’s brows knitted together.

She found it rather difficult to say.

Qi Si took the towel from her hand, drying her wet hair for her; his large hands wrapped in the towel cupped her face, looking up to meet her gaze in Qi Si’s dark eyes: "Call me brother."

Shen Yan’s cheeks reddened slightly, "Mr. Qi, you should go take your shower first, it’s late."

Qi Si bent his head, kissing her cheek and then moved slowly towards her lips, stopping there: "I want to hear you call me that."

"..." Embarrassed, Shen Yan tried to turn her face away, but Qi Si held her tightly, insisting that she call out that endearing nickname.

"Yanyan!"

Qi Si gently pressed against her soft cheek, his deep voice laced with a hint of pleading.

Shen Yan looked at him, somewhat shocked.

Her voice tightened: "...Brother Qi!"

In the next second, her breath was dominantly taken away!

Needless to say, Shen Yan’s bath went unused.

The next day, Shen Yan still had to get up early. When Liu Su and Xiao Zhao came to pick her up, she kept yawning frequently.

Although Qi Si felt pity, if last night’s situation were to repeat itself, he would still wear her out like that.

Qi Si sent her off in the car, again reminding the people around to take care of her, to try not to disturb her, and then adjusted a more comfortable position for her so that she could sleep peacefully on the way to the airport.

As the car door closed, Shen Yan lifted her eyelids and glanced at him through the glass window, then continued resting her eyes.

Next time, Shen Yan would rather die than call him that again. Too embarrassing!

And too perverse.

Shen Yan didn’t dare let him take her to the airport, afraid that he might get clingy and do something in the car again.

Xiao Zhao, who was sitting in the back to take care of Shen Yan, immediately noticed the uncovered marks on Shen Yan’s body, varying in shades, one could mistake them for bruises from being beaten.

Xiao Zhao, who knew about their relationship, blushed when his gaze fell on those marks.

The man’s possessiveness towards Yanyan was just too strong.

If they rushed off to film now, the whole crew would know just how possessive Yanyan’s man was.

It would no longer be possible to keep the fact that Yanyan had a man a secret.

Shen Yan was both sleepy and tired and didn’t notice the glances Xiao Zhao occasionally cast her way.

In the afternoon, upon their arrival in Shen City, they went directly to meet with Director Lu You of "Start Defecting."

Although it was Director Lu’s first time directing this type of game-based variety show, he quickly got the hang of it. After discussing with the planning director for two weeks, they finally settled on a plan.

There would be regular guests and guest stars.

Shen Yan got an idea of the overall direction of the variety show, found it quite interesting, and happily signed the contract on the spot.

It was somewhat like playing a detective game.

A group of people would do activities arranged by the show staff, among whom there would be a traitor in hiding, integrating into the group with their acting skills before defecting unexpectedly.

Then the rest of the group would go all out to "capture" the traitor, who, while being chased, could turn others or even make a kill.

Turning others was difficult, so the traitor had only one path to take.

Which was to hide and counter-kill, becoming the final victor. ƒreewebɳovel.com

If your acting was good enough, you could smoothly make it to the end with the main group and also be a winner.

But you’d have to deal with various tests along the way!

That’s where your acting skills would be put to the test.

Director Lu told Shen Yan to go back and rest, as they would depart for the shooting location the next day.

Their filming location wasn’t in Shen City, but in the neighboring province of Z.

Shen Yan’s return to Shen City to sign the contract was tantamount to informing Shen Ning and the Bai Family of her itinerary.

The Bai Family had invested in this program, so they had a tight grip on Shen Yan’s whereabouts, but she wasn’t afraid of those two families knowing her current whereabouts.

If she were afraid, she wouldn’t have jumped into this voluntarily.

The participants of this show were almost all acquaintances.

Wen Yan and Su Huai were more than familiar to Shen Yan, and then there was Li Yanbai, whose movie had just become a hit, and he might even become the Best Actor this year.

The show’s ability to invite him meant they’d be hard-pressed not to become a massive hit.

There was also Shi Lian, the cash cow for Chenfeng Media Company, and for a show invested in by the Mu Family, she was definitely the first choice.

If Shi Lian had known that Shen Yan was also participating, she certainly wouldn’t have signed the contract.

She had signed the contract first, only to find out afterwards that Shen Yan was also joining the show, which made her face turn very ugly, and she couldn’t stop trembling.

The fear of Shen Yan deep down was still uncontrollable.

There were also two male guests, Cheng Shuyu and Xu Qingshao, who had participated in "Extreme Speed" with Shen Yan.

Cheng Shuyu was replaced by Yang Fei after the first episode, and since then, Yang Fei had not reappeared. Shen Yan was one hundred percent certain that Yang Fei had died at the hands of his own people.

Knowing the way the base operated, Shen Yan understood that people like Yang Fei, who failed repeatedly, were either crippled or killed upon return.

The latter was more common, and the former’s treatment was rare.

That evening, Shen Yan got in touch with Lin Shuangxu, who immediately brightened up, "Shen Yan, I’ll arrange that meal I promised you last time with Zhou Yan!"

Shen Yan heard the increased affection in her voice and was happy for her finding her own happiness, "I also need to record a show, probably for three or four days."

"Alright. Once you’re done recording, come back to the campus!"

Shen Yan agreed, hung up the phone, and then received a call from an unfamiliar number. Seeing it was a local number, she still answered.

Mu Jincheng’s voice came from the other end, and Shen Yan hung up straight away.

When Mu Jincheng called again, Shen Yan remembered that the Mu family was now one of the show’s major sponsors and reluctantly answered.

"Shen Yan, this call is for work," Mu Jincheng spoke hastily on the other side, afraid that Shen Yan would hang up again.

"Is there something you need, President Mu?"

Shen Yan’s voice was very cold.

"Shen Yan... can we be friends?"

"Not possible," Shen Yan didn’t give him any chance and hung up again.

Mu Jincheng clutched his phone and turned back to look at the tightly closed door of the sickroom, a silent, bitter smile on his face.
