After Going Viral on a Dating Show, I'm Pampered by All-Chapter 241: Isn’t the Living Room Okay?

"Yes!" Four bodyguards immediately quickened their pace to follow, their voices loud and clear, without a hint of reluctance.

Sang Qiao watched as they all came in, then kicked the door shut with gusto.

After the door closed, her spirit deflated, and she lazily looked at the door, glancing up to survey the four bodyguards. She wouldn’t really beat up her own loyal bodyguards for no good reason.

But since Si Chenli had even used the "dead battery" trick on his phone to get her to clean up the bodyguards, she naturally could only go along with his wishes, "Make sure you scream piteously to create the illusion that you’ve been beaten up."

Hearing this, the four bodyguards were stunned: "We can’t cry out; even if we are beaten, we won’t make a sound."

"Just shout a couple of times."

The four burly bodyguards looked awkward, shouting in confusion was really not their forte, they would rather take a beating.

But since Sister Qiao had spoken, they could only clear their throats, "Ah... it hurts!"

"Stop hitting, I’m dying of pain!"

"I can’t take it anymore."

The four bodyguards wore expressionless faces, their voices as if reading from a textbook, devoid of any emotion.

Sang Qiao: "..."

"Stop, that’s enough, let’s go."

"Yes."

When Sang Qiao led the four unharmed bodyguards out, Si Chenli glanced over casually.

Sang Qiao: "Cough... I’ve beaten them, they won’t do it again next time."

"Uh-huh, I believe you, it sounded pretty miserable, let them all go out," Si Chenli stated indifferently, a faint smile playing on his cool lips, his eyes holding a trace of indulgence.

The four bodyguards felt extremely awkward, anyone could tell Mr. Si didn’t believe a word.

Luckily, he didn’t seem to want to pursue the matter further, so after bowing, they fled from that place of trouble.

Sang Qiao took a few steps to the sofa and sat down next to him, reaching out to hook his hand, "Are you not angry anymore?"

Si Chenli sat up straight, but his large palm honestly held her aimlessly moving hand in the center of his palm.

The man’s voice was husky: "If I’m not, what do you plan to do?"

Sang Qiao was temporarily lost for words and then tentatively asked, "Shall I call them back in and beat them up again?"

Si Chenli let out a faint laugh; the girl’s response was as he had expected. Unconsciously, his fingers on the sofa tightened, "Qiaoqiao, making me not angry doesn’t just involve cleaning them up."

The man’s eyes were deep as if they could suck someone in, and the air temperature seemed to rise. Sang Qiao hadn’t had time to react before another large palm wrapped around her waist.

He pulled her towards him, and they were very close, close enough to feel the warmth of his breath.

Si Chenli whispered into her ear: "Qiaoqiao, compared to dealing with them, I’d much rather deal with you."

Sang Qiao felt a bit uncomfortable and subconsciously tried to pull her hand away, but couldn’t.

She looked at him seriously: "This is the living room."

"So it’s okay if it’s not the living room?" teased Si Chenli, seeing her serious demeanor, the smile on his lips grew wider.

Sang Qiao nodded her head, "And you need to wear a ’suit.’"

Just as Sang Qiao was pondering whether to have the servants go buy a ’suit,’ the man suddenly picked her up and placed her on the nearby sofa, then got up and headed to the bathroom.

Sang Qiao’s delicate brows furrowed slightly—going to the restroom in this atmosphere?

Well, it didn’t seem right to do that kind of thing before even eating dinner.

She got up and headed to the kitchen to instruct the chef on the dishes for today and realized that she didn’t really understand Si Chenli’s preferences.

"Sister Qiao, what would you like to order?" Chef Xiao Zhang poked his head out to ask.

"Forget it, just make whatever you like." Sang Qiao went back and sat on the sofa.

"Yes," Chef Xiao Zhang said respectfully.

Sang Qiao sat down on the sofa again and gestured to Xiao’an, who immediately came over to listen. She whispered a few instructions into Xiao’an’s ear, making his face turn beet red in an instant.

"Yes, Sister Qiao, I’ll go buy it right away."

"Good, just put it in my room."

"Okay." After Xiao’an responded, he left the house.

Si Chenli took half an hour for his trip to the restroom, and by the time he came back, the dishes had all been served, which made it hard for Sang Qiao not to wonder what the man was up to.

Urinating would’ve only taken a few minutes; half an hour could only mean a number two.

When the man sat opposite her, Sang Qiao picked some food for him and leaned in to ask, "I didn’t know what you liked, so the kitchen just whipped up some dishes."

"No problem, I’m not picky."

"So you don’t have any particular favorites?"

"Mhm." Si Chenli spoke the truth, he had never had many preferences since he was young, but he was always persistent about the people or things he did like.

Sang Qiao fiddled with her food, occasionally picking food for him. After they finished eating, both of them went straight upstairs.

Si Chenli walked into the room he always stayed in when he came over, "Goodnight."

Sang Qiao: "?" Wasn’t he supposed to deal with her?

Could it be Si Chenli had no such intentions?

Was she thinking too dirty?

Sang Qiao lay on the soft big bed in her room, staring at the tiny box the size of a piece of chewing gum on the bedside, falling into deep reflection. She blamed herself for reading too many messy CEO scripts lately.

Her consistent biological clock soon sent her into sleep, without dwelling too much on all that nonsense.

Ever since Lin Gou Dan had taken so much flak that day and was still owing the club so much money, being detained there to work off his debt, he had been seething with anger.

He couldn’t afford to offend Sang Qiao, but what was there to stop him from offending his own nephew!

He immediately set about checking up on Lin Weichen’s latest situations and, after creating a new account, began composing and posting a message.

[Rose Entertainment’s Lin Weichen, a nobody, easily secured a role in the movie "Fame." The behind-the-scenes dealings are obvious. Total lack of skill, yet he ousted so many seniors. I can’t help but lament the injustice of the world!]

[The OP has spoken what’s in my heart! I really can’t understand how Lin Weichen got that role.]

[+10086! Really hate the artists from Rose Entertainment. Whenever they compete for roles, they secure them so easily. Everyone knows about Li Qingyan, right? He was up against Sang Emperor for a role. Li Qingyan, some nobody, snagged the role from Sang Emperor through sheer talent—do you guys believe that?]

[What the sister above said echoes my thoughts too! Brother Sang Shen is both skilled and has a following, losing to Li Qingyan, I really found it hilarious, you can tell it’s all backroom deals.]

[Everyone, keep it down—Rose Entertainment’s Sister Qiao has quite the background, even Sang Emperor had to beg for her forgiveness. If she gets angry and decides to make Sang Emperor leave the entertainment industry, that wouldn’t be good!]

[...If she dares to treat Brother Sang Shen like that, I’ll fucking blast her.]

...More and more people started popping up in the comments section, all of them blasting Rose Entertainment’s talent for lacking skill, always using money to snatch other people’s roles.

With Sang Shen’s name involved, the situation escalated even further, with many taking to Rose Entertainment’s official account to curse and demand that Li Qingyan return the role to Sang Emperor.

As soon as Sang Qiao arrived at the company, a middle-aged lady reported the situation to her with visible anxiety.

"The public relations department has been trying to moderate the comments, but Sang Emperor’s fan base is huge. Plus, the fact that Lin Weichen got the movie role in ’Fame’ from a host of seniors has also led uninformed bystanders to be misled by that group, joining the wave of insults."
