Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Li Hanchen’s eyes glinted glacially as he held his pen so tightly that it cracked the moment he heard what his father said. “Okay.”

“Humph. Bring your stupid little brother along with you. Got it?”

The moment he finished his sentence, Li Ting slammed the phone.

Li Hanchen tossed aside the broken pen and glanced at the photo on his desk.

A woman was smiling at him warmly in the picture.

Li Hanchen put on his suit jacket and stood up before heading out.

Han Yu had already left when he got downstairs and Mu Sheng seemed to be waiting for him.

Although there was barely any difference in Mu Sheng’s cool expression, Li Hanchen inexplicably detected anger.

“What happened?” Li Hanchen walked up to Mu Sheng and stood in front of her.

“Han Yu has already left for 15 minutes.” Mu Sheng reached her hands out towards Li Hanchen. “Why didn’t you come down for so long?”

Mu Sheng wanted to lie down in bed, but Li Hanchen did not come down and she also left her phone upstairs, so she could only wait for him to come down on his own.

“I just got a call and I have to go out now.” Li Hanchen carried Mu Sheng upstairs before he placed some snacks and water beside Mu Sheng’s bed.

“I will be home soon.”

“Okay.” Mu Sheng nodded.

After leaving her room, Li Hanchen called Auntie Lin to get her to come home so that she could take care of Mu Sheng before he drove to the Li residence.

There were a lot of guests at the Li residence.

Li Ming’s mother was the head of the household, and Liu Ting adored having ladies of high society over.

Several groups of high society ladies were sitting in small groups and enjoying high tea as an elegant pianist played in the background.

The moment Li Ting saw this when he got home, he was terribly annoyed. He did not get it. Why did Liu Ting keep having guests around? He waved his hand and gestured for Liu Ting to send her guests away.

Liu Ting could only put on a bold front as she told her guests it was time to leave. She walked up beside Li Ting and asked annoyingly, “Did you know how hard it was for me to get into their circle? Why couldn’t they stay?”

Li Ting glanced at Liu Ting angrily. “Li Hanchen is coming over in a minute. Do you really want them to see him?”

Liu Ting finally stopped complaining. She asked angrily, “Why did you call Li Hanchen over?”

“What would a woman know? Just stay out of it and go upstairs.” Li Ting waved his hand and sent Liu Ting upstairs impatiently.

Liu Ting sneered before she swanned upstairs with her hips swaying.

By the time Li Hanchen arrived at the Li residence, the hall was filled with people.

No one would have guessed Li Hanchen was Li Ting’s so-called good-for-nothing son. After all, Li Hanchen had a dignified aura, so everyone naturally felt he was some important guest.

“Since you are expecting an important guest, allow us to take our leave.” The principal bowed to Li Ting politely.

Li Ting glanced at Li Hanchen in disdain. “What important guest? He is my useless son.”

“Huh?”

Everyone looked at Li Hanchen quizzically.

His useless son? Did Li Hanchen look useless?

Between Li Ting and Li Hanchen, Li Ting seemed far less accomplished than Li Hanchen. However, everyone naturally kept their thoughts to themselves and did not say them out loud.

“Enough. Now that you are here, come over and say hi to Mr. Wang. He is the principal of Li An’s new school.”

The man introduced as Mr. Wang was severely bald. His teeth were badly yellowed from smoking, and they could be seen as he smiled at Li Ting. “Mr. Li, you are too kind. I look forward to working with you.”

The moment he finished his sentence, Wang Hai gave Li Hanchen his name card which read: 15th Vocational College.

Li Hanchen glanced at the name card, and his eyes instantly turned frosty.

Li Hanchen glanced at him, and Wang Hai instantly stopped laughing and felt a chill running down his spine.

“Li An is already attending middle school, so he doesn’t need a new school.” Li Hanchen did not take Wang Hai’s name card, so Wang Hai could only sheepishly pull his hand back.

Li Ting looked annoyed when he heard this. He was especially angry when Li Hanchen disobeyed him in front of outsiders.

“Just do as I say,” said Li Ting as he pointed at a boy with his hair dyed blonde. “He is your eldest uncle’s son, Li Jun. After Li An is removed from the school, just give the spot to Li Jun. He has far better grades than Li An.”

Li Ting did not bother to ask Li Hanchen for his opinion and simply ordered him around.

“Jun, even Ming was unable to make it into Eminent Senior High, so you have to make full use of this opportunity and get into a prominent university.”

Wang Hai glanced at Li Hanchen awkwardly. Why did he suddenly feel a draft in the room?

He was in the education business. Why did he get involved in the family politics of the rich and powerful? Things could get chaotic in such families.

Li Ting continued telling Li Jun about what he should do after starting school at Eminent Senior High. Li Hanchen glanced at Li Ting before walking out of the room.

“Uncle, Chen is…” Li Jun was terrified of Li Hanchen’s powerful aura and could not help shrinking his neck.

“What about him?” Li Ting wanted to go on talking about school when Li Jun interrupted him.

The butler suddenly ran in anxiously. “Oh no! Master, Li Hanchen has destroyed the ancestral shrine!”

Li Ting hastily stood up. “What?”

All the family ancestral tablets were placed in the shrine. Li Ting got there only to find the place in a mess. His blood pressure promptly surged as he looked at the tablets scattered on the ground.

“That b*stard!” Li Ting checked quickly and noticed that Li Hanchen had taken his mother’s tablet.

Li Hanchen drove out of the villa as he glanced at the tablet in the front passenger seat with a cold look in his eyes.

The Li family was shameless as always. Nothing had changed about them.

Li Ting kept calling Li Hanchen, but he could not get through. He threw the phone on the ground angrily. “Stop giving Li Hanchen his allowance! Spread the word! Anyone who hires Li Hanchen is no friend of the Li family!”

“Yes, Master.” The butler had never seen Li Ting throw such a huge temper, so he trembled. He promptly picked up the tablets on the ground and left the room.

After the butler left, Li Ting called the principal of the vocational school. “Mr. Wang, wait for him at Eminent Senior High tomorrow and take him away. Don’t worry. I am his father, so I have the final say about this!”

Meanwhile, Mu Sheng was starting to get drowsy after having her fill of food and drink. Just as she was about to go to bed, Li Hanchen entered the room.

Mu Sheng glanced at Li Hanchen sleepily and felt he was in a bad mood.

“What’s wrong?” Mu Sheng sat up in bed.

Li Hanchen seemed especially cold as he removed Mu Sheng’s food and drink. “I’m fine. Go to bed.”

“Okay.” Since Mu Sheng was drowsy, she was unable to think properly. She curled up under the blanket and fell asleep before long.

Li Hanchen wanted to leave since Mu Sheng was asleep, but he changed his mind.

Mu Sheng looked very cute when she was asleep and looked completely different from her usual self. Now, she seemed like a sweet kitten. Her cheeks looked slightly chubbier with her head on the pillow.

The tempest raging in Li Hanchen’s heart miraculously calmed down.

Meanwhile, at the “Song of Youth” film location.

Ruan Yingying went back to the changing room huffily after getting turned away by Qiao Siyu repeatedly.

“Why does he refuse to take the bait? I clearly remember he had no problems chatting with Mu Sheng. Why is it so hard to get him to talk to me?”

The talent agent rolled her eyes in her heart as she contemplated. Oh god! Could she stop annoying Qiao Siyu? We could not afford to offend him.

“Humph.” Ruan Yingying refused to give up. Even Mu Sheng was able to win his attention, so why not her?

The talent agent shook her head and felt it was just a matter of time before Ruan Yingying destroyed her reputation.

“Hey,” shouted Ruan Yingying to her talent agent. “I heard a popular entertainment program is looking to recruit artists. Can you help me get a spot? Tell the agency that I want to appear on the show with Qiao Siyu for publicity.”

The talent agent frowned. “What program?”

“I meant ‘A Journey Through Food’. Help me get a spot.” Ruan Yingying looked at her talent agent.

She had been dying to appear on the show.

Entertainment programs had been all the rage in recent years. Shows with artists sent into unfamiliar territory and given free rein to do whatever they wanted were highly popular. Artists were given the platform to show their authentic side.

“A Journey Through Food” was the hottest food-themed entertainment program within the last two years.

Artists were divided into teams and sent to live in the countryside. The film crew would leave them with some ingredients and record their activities.

Since artists typically did not have to do any chores, the highlight of the show was to watch them farm, cook, and live like a commoner.

Countless unknown artists were propelled into stardom after making an appearance on the show.

The talent agent hesitated before she replied, “Well, we can always try since they are recruiting artists.”

“Really? Can you make arrangements then? I want to appear on it,” said Ruan Yingying as she sent the talent agent to settle the matter.

The talent agent went speechless. She glanced at her half-eaten lunch box before she sighed in her heart.

It was pure torture. Why did she end up with this artist? She was unable to even finish her food in peace.

Tang Tiantian was watching a video on her computer as she ate at Midsummer’s Night.

Jiang Tian walked over. He took her chicken drumstick and ate it. “Why are you watching videos while you eat? You might get choked.”

“Hey! That’s my chicken drumstick!” Tang Tiantian felt furious when she realized someone had eaten her chicken drumstick. “Tian, how could you do that? You are my boss, but you were too cheap to pay for my lunch and now you even stole my chicken drumstick! This is too much!”

Jiang Tian disregarded Tang Tiantian’s protests. He glanced at her computer and asked. “What are you watching? What’s so interesting it could make you forget your chicken drumstick?”

“I am watching ‘A Journey Through Food’. Haven’t you seen it before?” Tang Tiantian looked at Jiang Tian as though he were an alien. “This is the hottest show on the market. Don’t you work in the entertainment industry? How could you not know about it?”

Jiang Tian genuinely did not pay much attention to entertainment programs. He found it rather interesting to see artists roll up their sleeves to farm.

“This is pretty good. Get in touch with the film crew and see if we can sign up Mu Sheng for it.”

Tang Tiantian thought about this program which was based in the countryside where the artists had to work on the farms and cook. Since Mu Sheng had the aura of a goddess, she felt it was unsuitable for Mu Sheng. “Tian, this show? I think this theme doesn’t go with her image.”

“Take my word for it. Just ask them,” said Jiang Tian with the tone of a domineering CEO. Sadly, the half-eaten chicken bone in his mouth and the grease on his face simply ruined it.

Tang Tiantian trembled from goosebumps before she wiped her mouth and got to work.

Big news kept sweeping the gaming industry by storm recently.

People were still talking about Mu Sheng and Han Yu defeating GL Gaming Team when a new post became the hottest subject on social media at rocket speed.

[Oh god! Check out the teams for the World Gaming Masters! One more team has signed up!]

Everyone checked out the post and promptly scoffed. The World Gaming Masters was a big deal in the gaming industry and the stuff of legends, but a new entry should not be worthy of shock.

The person who posted it was a complete rookie, but the rest of the people knew better than to overreact.

Before the people had finished dissing others for overreacting, they inadvertently clicked on the post and saw its contents, and they were stunned by the news.

Sorry!

They were genuinely frogs in the well!

The new gaming team was called MS Gaming Squad.

Everyone got shocked when they saw its team members.

Han Yu, Mu Sheng, Chen Xiao, and Zhang Qing

People knew about Chen Xiao and Zhang Qing since they were up-and-coming new gamers.

However, it was unfathomable for Han Yu’s and Mu Sheng’s names to appear in the same sentence.

Had Hero of the Universe not retired? Was Mu Sheng signing up for the World Gaming Masters?

GL Gaming Team was equally bewildered when they heard the news.

“What’s going on? Didn’t Yu retire?”

“What else do you think happened?” Zhang Jin was still annoyed over the game last night. “He is clearly betraying us. He thinks he is good enough to form his own gaming team now.”

Shui wanted to reason with Zhang Jin, but the rest of the people stopped Shui.

Everyone kept glancing at Shui and hinting for Shui to stop. Zhang Jin was the hot favorite among the investors. It simply was not worth it to offend Zhang Jin now.

Everyone in the industry was talking about the new team that had signed up for the World Gaming Masters as well.

The World Gaming Masters was far harder than any other international gaming competition.

As the name implied, World Gaming Masters was a competition for masters and only people who had previously come in champion were permitted to take part in it. True legends were born in the World Gaming Masters.

Other than Han Yu, talk about Mu Sheng also spread throughout the international gaming world, especially when they learned of Mu Sheng’s true identity and gender.

Everyone in the gaming industry felt it was ridiculous.

How could a girl sign up for the World Gaming Masters? Had China kept a closed-door policy for so long that it started to overestimate itself? Who did they think they were? How could they send a woman to take part in the World Gaming Masters? She was asking for humiliation..
