Shang Qingmo couldn’t describe her feelings.

Breaking through all the barriers and separating the uncle-nephew relationship that he had maintained for many years. He was very sure that he had always wanted her.

Going back five years or more, his feelings for her had always been restrained and dark.

Actually, he should have done this long ago. He didn’t have to worry so much.

Didn’t she still make things worse?

For the first time, he hated his decision.

This was probably the most regretful thing he had ever done in his life.

“It’s my fault.”

He hugged her and his deep voice rang in her ears. His tone was filled with guilt and self-blame.

Shang Qiqi closed her eyes and shook her head gently in his arms. After a few seconds of silence, she said, “…Is the influence of the company huge? Did the Song family find trouble with you?”

“I’ll settle it. I’ll settle everything. You just have to stay by my side obediently.”

“… Yes.”

A kiss landed on her head, and Shang Qiqi’s eyelashes fluttered.

It was hard to hide the throbbing in her heart. She was even looking forward to the perfect solution.

In fact, after a few days, other than being busier than usual, the public opinion did not change.

She knew from the start that no one would think that they were right to be together.

She only sent a message to Han Jichi with the words “I’m sorry”. She didn’t answer his calls.

She didn’t go out either. Occasionally, she would go online to look at topics related to them. Hua Chen TV, the Shang family, the Han family, and the Song family.

As time passed, their topic gradually became less popular.

The days were peaceful as if nothing had happened.

Her obedience had probably appeased Shang Qingmo’s initial frustration. It seemed that as long as she stayed by his side obediently, everything would be fine.

They had clearly broken through their uncle-nephew relationship, but nothing had happened in the past few days.

They didn’t even share a bed.

They were together, but they didn’t seem to be.

Other than watching him leave for the company and coming back for dinner that night, they hardly saw each other.

A male celebrity who had just become famous in the entertainment industry was exposed to be married and had a child. Photos and videos of the family of three on vacation overseas were taken clearly.

The child’s eyes were blurred and their interaction was sweet.

One of the biggest taboos for male celebrities in the entertainment industry was to have their relationship or family exposed.

Now that this male celebrity was in the limelight, his unstable fan base would undoubtedly be shaken when it was exposed that he was married and had a child.

The incident had blown up for two days and everyone was focused on it. The attention on Hua Chen’s television had almost been diverted.

Even Shang Qiqi, who was bored at home, was watching the show on her phone.

Two days after the incident, the male celebrity held a press conference in front of Stars International Building. He confessed that he was married and had a child.

However, they had married and had children normally. They were a loving couple. They didn’t steal or snatch. They didn’t cheat or hire prostitutes. Ever since they debuted, there had been no scandals. They relied on their acting skills and ability to advance steadily. It didn’t affect them much.

On the day of the press conference, his attitude was neither servile nor overbearing. He was even grateful for the exposure this time. He said that he had been thinking about how to reveal his identity and that this was a good opportunity.

Good man.

In the midst of this incident, Shen Fanxing handed the money to Hua Chen TV.

Later on, she reminded him to sign a contract with Li Tingshen’s new drama.

After some investigation, there was no need to doubt the quality of the script, so he discussed this matter with Li Tingshen.

With Hua Chen Television’s status in the industry, choosing it was the best choice. Even if there was a commotion now, they would just have to start all over again. But in reality, Hua Chen Television wouldn’t go that far.

Even if that was the case, as one of the few private friends, she had to give him face since he had asked.

Since it was a drama from Stars International and CP Entertainment, it was definitely something that everyone wanted. Shang Qingmo had two exclusive rights and the only online rights was the video website under Hua Chen TV. Naturally, Hua Chen TV wouldn’t be down and out.

Shang Qingmo was puzzled by Shen Fanxing’s suggestion to buy the exclusive rights to Li Tingshen’s television drama, but she didn’t probe further.

When she went to Li Tingshen’s company in the morning to discuss the contract, Li Tingshen seemed to be in a good mood.

Shang Qingmo sat on a chair in Li Tingshen’s office and looked at the man who was leaning against the leather swivel chair with a faint smile on his face. Shang Qingmo stroked her forehead and her voice was indifferent.

“Why? Ye Qingqiu is pregnant with her third child. Why are you so happy?”

Hearing this, Li Tingshen raised his eyebrows and ignored the cold expression on Shang Qingmo’s face. He pursed his lips and said, “You still have the mood to care about why I’m happy?”

Shang Qingmo glanced at him coldly. Once this man became active, his observation skills were useless to him.

Too lazy to give him a chance to tease him, she took out the contract without another word.

Because the two of them had communicated on the phone, Li Tingshen picked up the contract and flipped through it. In the end, he put it down with a smile and leaned back in his chair.

It seemed like she didn’t intend to sign it.

Shang Qingmo’s eyes darkened slightly.

“Hurry up and sign it. I have other matters to attend to.”

Li Tingshen smiled faintly as his slender fingers habitually touched the ring on his left ring finger.

“You’re quite a beautiful lady. I’ve kept you by my side for so many years, and you still have the cheek to do it?”

Shang Qingmo’s face turned completely cold. “You’ve lived a stable life for a few years. Are you in the mood to laugh at me now?”

“I wouldn’t go so far as to laugh at you.” He chuckled lightly after saying that. “It’s probably because I feel comforted that you, who have always been smart and rational, are as stupid as me.”

Shang Qingmo said, “Don’t tell me that you’re so happy today because of this.”

Li Tingshen shook his head. “I’m even happier that you’ll give me at least two points on this contract.”

Shang Qingmo frowned as his cold gaze landed on Li Tingshen’s face.

“You’re celebrating too early.”

Li Tingshen looked relaxed and his smile didn’t change at all. “It’s just that I can earn less. Most importantly, I can stabilize the television station’s position in the industry. Do you think the problem has been resolved because the young lady is obedient at home?”

Shang Qingmo’s expression froze for a moment.

Li Tingshen glanced at him with a faint smile and continued, “Are you really heartless?”

Shang Qingmo pursed his lips into a sharp line and frowned.

She wasn’t.

She clearly had many concerns now.

If Hua Chen’s matter had not improved and was deeply affected, Qiqi would have felt something.

Perhaps it was as Li Tingshen had said, she was too obedient that he had neglected her position.

Seeing him like this, Li Tingshen smiled and continued unhurriedly.

“If not, it’s just a profit of two points. Or is she inferior to these two points to you?”

Shang Qingmo looked up and said in a cold voice, “If I didn’t say to your face that you have no class, then listen carefully now. Li Tingshen, you’re really shameless.”

Hearing this, Li Tingshen didn’t get angry and chuckled.

Shang Qingmo continued,

“It’s just to earn more money. Since you’re so short of money, we should give you more.”

Then, he paused and glanced at the canceled contract on the table. Just as he was about to get up, Li Tingshen straightened his back again and dialed the number.

After venting his anger, Li Tingshen instructed,

“Bring the documents in.”

“Okay.”

Within a minute, there was a knock on the office door.

Li Tingshen’s secretary entered solemnly and placed the document on the table.

Shang Qingmo took a rough look and saw that it was an exclusive broadcast rights letter. The content was almost the same as what he had brought, other than the two additional points of profit distribution.

Shang Qingmo gritted his teeth.

She was indeed a cunning and shameless fox.

He could imagine this fellow asking his secretary to draft this shameless contract.

Li Tingshen smiled and gestured for him to sign.

In the end, Shang Qingmo signed in front of him with a cold expression.

Then, she suddenly stood up and pulled a contract out of the chair.

“Don’t be smug. I’ll make you vomit it out sooner or later.”

Li Tingshen placed the document aside and smiled faintly. “There’s still time.”

After returning to the company and filing the contract, the matter was considered to have come to an end for the time being. The uneasiness caused by Li Tingshen’s words made him choose to return home at noon.

After Shang Qiqi finished eating, she hugged her phone and fell asleep on the sofa.

The servant thoughtfully covered her with a blanket.

When Shang Qingmo returned and saw the servants tiptoeing, her gaze landed on the sofa.

The servants seemed to be very familiar with this situation.

His eyes darkened slightly. “Have you eaten?”

The butler whispered, “Not yet.”

“You didn’t eat lunch on time?”

“Not really. Miss doesn’t sleep regularly. She has been staying at home. Other than eating and playing with her phone, she’s sleeping.”

Shang Qingmo’s temples throbbed.

It had been nearly a week. She had just returned from overseas, and she had yet to get to know the country five years later.

She closed her eyes and suppressed the complicated emotions in her heart before walking into the living room.

She was resting her head on the armrest of the sofa. Her hair was tied up casually and there was nothing on her fair face. Compared to the woman who had to put on a layer of lipstick on the streets, her complexion was worse.

She had always loved being beautiful. She liked to walk confidently in front of everyone.

Now, she could only curl up on the sofa at home and sleep in boredom.

He bent down and reached out to tuck her hair away.

She shouldn’t be like this.

They shouldn’t be like this forever.

At this moment, the phone in her pocket rang. Shang Qingmo’s heart tightened as she stared at the sleeping girl on the sofa. Her eyelids twitched before she slowly opened her eyes.

“Little Uncle?” she called out sleepily. She glanced at the bright sky outside the window and sat up. “Why are you back so early?”

Seeing that she had been woken up by him, he grunted and took out his phone. At the same time, he bent down to sit on the sofa and looked at the message on his phone coldly. He looked like he wanted to settle scores with someone.

It was a message from Shen Fanxing. After the post-production of the drama was completed and the copyrights were sold, she had specially arranged a celebration party and invited reporters to attend.

Shang Qingmo’s furrowed brows relaxed slightly. Not to mention Shen Fanxing’s reputation, Shen Fanxing’s arrangements were much more than Li Tingshen’s.

There was an endless debate on Hua Chen TV. Everyone else wanted to avoid him. Shen Fanxing had announced her collaboration with Hua Chen TV at a public celebration party. She would definitely receive negative comments. She was smart enough to know that she would be implicated.

But she did it anyway.

But since he had thought of this, he wouldn’t implicate Shen Fanxing.

Just as he was about to reject her, Shang Qiqi’s low yawn made him pause.

He turned to look at the girl who was still in a daze. Shang Qiqi noticed and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Shang Qingmo reached out to touch the top of her head and replied, “Okay.”

Shen Fanxing smiled when she saw the reply.

Instead, he dialed a number.

“Suppress the news for another two days.”
