Awakened Multi-talented Goddess Is Doted

Chapter 173: Mu Sheng Changes Her Mind About the Divorce

Li Hanchen put the divorce papers aside after sorting them out. “Have you found a place to live?”

Mu Sheng shook her head again. It was not easy to find a nice place located near the talent agency.

Li Hanchen wanted to ask more, but Mu Sheng suddenly raised her head. “Why don’t we get divorced in half a year like what Li An said?”

Li Hanchen was rather surprised that Mu Sheng would suggest this. “Why?”

“I will pay you rent and utilities,” said Mu Sheng. She was afraid Li Hanchen would say no.

In reality, she changed her mind because of Li An.

The way Li An looked when he left reminded her of herself in her past life.

Back then, she looked at her mother longingly, but her mother did not let her stay.

This sudden turn of events caught Li Hanchen unaware. He looked at Mu Sheng deeply and said, “In that case…”

“If you meet someone you like, you can tell me so that we can get divorced right away. If that happens, I am sure Li An can understand.”

Li Hanchen went quiet briefly before he glanced at Mu Sheng. “It won’t happen.”

“It’s settled then.”

Li Hanchen came prepared with a lot of ways to convince Mu Sheng to stay, but he did not get to put them to use. He simply nodded in agreement.

“I…” Mu Sheng could sense Li Hanchen seemed a lot gentler than when he first sat down at the table.

Before Mu Sheng finished her sentence, Li Hanchen opened his coat jacket. “Help yourself.”

Mu Sheng looked uneasy when he saw right through her. “Thanks.”

Li Hanchen had not come home for three days. Mu Sheng did not get to have candy during this time, so she went to the supermarket to buy some herself.

However, they were either too creamy or sweet. Also, their texture could not compare to Li Hanchen’s candy.

Li An had been waiting in his room anxiously for so long that he could not resist opening the door to secretly peek downstairs.

He saw Li Hanchen and Mu Sheng sitting on the couch amicably.

Li An put up his antenna and activated his radar for Li Hanchen.

Li An felt relieved when he noticed that his older brother was in a rather good mood.

However, Li An had to confirm it. He secretly waved at Li Hanchen, and Li Hanchen nodded back imperceptibly.

Yay! His sister-in-law was staying!

Li An felt as though he had found joy once more!

Li An had to find some way to make his older brother and sister-in-law be a genuine couple in half a year. That way, his sister-in-law would never leave.

Old Madam Ye regained consciousness under the care of the medical team at Metropolis Hospital.

The first thing she did when she regained consciousness was trying to find her savior.

“Mom, why are you so anxious about this? We have already sent word, so I am sure we can find him soon,” said a well-dressed woman sitting next to Old Madam Ye.

Old Madam Ye spoke with her eyes lit up. “I definitely feel a lot better than I used to after I regained consciousness. I clearly do not have my usual body ache. I think the Good Samaritan who saved me is a medical genius. If we can find him, perhaps there is hope for Lin.”

“Mom, I know you are worried about Ye Lin. Didn’t the medical team already confirm his condition? There is no saving him.” Zhou Xian also wanted her husband to recover, but she was disappointed far too many times.

Old Madam Ye’s eyes lost hope when she heard what Zhou Xian said. “I know what the doctors said, but just what if? If Ye Lin dies, it is just a matter of time when I follow him. How can you survive alone with Ye Zhen?”

Everyone out there felt envious of the luxurious lives that the rich and powerful were able to enjoy, but no one knew how hard life was in an elite family. The moment they made a single mistake, they would be doomed.

“Mom.” Zhou Xian could not help feeling teary when she heard what Old Madam Ye said. “Stop saying that. You are still very healthy.”

Old Madam Ye sighed and did not go on talking.

She knew best how she was doing physically.

Old Madam Ye probably would not have long to live if she did not encounter such a miracle. She was unafraid to face death, but her daughter-in-law and her children would have to face the unscrupulous Ye clan all on her own. How could they survive?

Old Madam Ye and Zhou Xian contemplated in silence in the hospital ward.

It was a grand occasion for the local music industry.

The world-famous Ouyang He was coming home today.

Swarms of reporters waited for him at the airport with anticipation.

A reporter suddenly shouted, “He’s here! He’s here!”

A man dressed in a well-made suit came into sight nearby.

Ouyang He was a world-famous pianist and the pride of the country. He left home when he was 10 years old to learn piano and only came back now that he was 35 years old.

He was just a child when he left, but he returned as a world-class pianist.

Everyone wanted to know the story behind Ouyang He’s success, but he seemed aloof and unapproachable. The moment he appeared, two rows of bodyguards stood beside him.

The reporters had a lot of questions to ask him, but the bodyguards made it impossible for them to come close to Ouyang He at all.

A female reporter asked at the top of her lungs, “Master Ouyang, people are saying you are on the search for a disciple. Is that true?”

Ouyang He halted and turned to look at the female reporter and everyone went quiet. They were all waiting for his answer.

Ouyang He gazed into the distance towards the airport exit, where the roads led to home. He nodded and said, “That is true. I do intend on accepting a disciple. I would like to contribute to the trade and groom a successor to take over the Chinese music industry.”

“Wow! Have you chosen someone yet?”

“Mind telling us who your favorite local artists are?”

The reporters kept asking Ouyang He questions, but he did not answer this time.

Camera shutters could be heard clicking nonstop as Ouyang He disappeared through the airport exit.

Before long, news about Master Ouyang selecting a disciple hit all the media outlets in the country.

Despite all the commotion going on outside, Mu Sheng was untouched.

She was looking at an invitation in her hand.

The Mu family had sent it.

Zhang Man was a vain woman, so her birthday banquets were always a major affair.

Mu Sheng found this absolutely ironic. Even though the original owner of the body was a member of the Mu family, she had never appeared at any of the birthday parties before and was kept out of sight.

Hence, most of the people in high society were unaware of Mu Sheng and Mu Xiao’s swap at birth.

Now that they had made the original owner of the body marry into the Li family, it finally dawned on them to invite her.

Mu Sheng knew this was bad news.

Even though they were up to no good, Mu Sheng had to go.

After all, the original owner of the body died with unfinished business with the Mu family.

Although the original owner of the body had died, Mu Sheng could not help feeling a twinge in her heart whenever she heard the news about the Mu family.

Mu Sheng called the Mu residence and told them, “Okay. I will be there.”

Zhang Man smiled coldly and turned off the phone after hearing back from Mu Sheng with a reply and asked the butler, “Is Xiaoxiao’s couture gown ready?”

“Young Madam, Clover has already started working on it six months ago. They called yesterday to confirm that it is ready and it will be delivered within a week.”

“Got it.” Zhang Man waved her hand. “Get someone to prepare some jewelry for her.”

Mu Xiao had to be the prettiest woman at her birthday banquet. She had to ensure Li Ming would continue loving Mu Xiao and marry her.

“Yes, Young Madam,” replied the butler.

After Mu Sheng made the announcement about the event on Saturday, she stopped doing live telecasts. No matter how the viewers begged, Mu Sheng did not show up.

The operations manager was initially worried that it would make viewers leave, but Mu Sheng unexpectedly managed to keep them in suspense. Even though Mu Sheng had stopped live telecasting, a lot of fans kept stalking her channel.

Time went by swiftly as the viewers waited in anticipation.

It was Friday and there was only one day left until Saturday.

Just one more day.

Mu Sheng’s and Ruan Yingying’s talent agencies posted their activities for the live telecast platforms for publicity.

Ruan Yingying was an up-and-coming actress and Mu Sheng was the queen of scandal.

Also, they used to belong to the same girl band.

Everyone instantly felt it would be an exciting event.

[Tiger Shark and Cat Live both hired artists to help promote their platforms. I think Tiger Shark will definitely outdo Cat Live. Since Tiger Shark is loaded, they were able to hire Ruan Yingying to appear at the event. This is awesome!]

[Even if Cat Live couldn’t afford it, they didn’t have to hire Mu Sheng, right? Are they crazy? Why are they slapping their own faces?]

The moment the announcements were posted, everyone felt Cat Live and Mu Sheng were like two losers holding onto each other and trying to stay afloat. However, they would probably both drown together.
