Chapter 1017: Qiao Lian Is Pregnant (2)
Shen Liangchuan lowered his gaze plainly and said, “You’ve stayed in your room for a few hours already, it is not suitable for her. It would be better if I moved there.”
When Qiao Lian heard him propose to swap rooms of his own accord, she immediately felt elated, as though her prayers had been answered. In excitement, she pushed his luggage out and replied, “Apologies for the trouble, Mr. Shen!”
It seemed like she really wanted to draw a clear line between them when she addressed him in such a distant and cold manner. Shen Liangchuan’s expression darkened as he nodded.
Qiao Lian stood in the room and smiled at Prince and Shen Liangchuan, as she waved goodbye to them. She then proceeded to shut the door swiftly.
She finally breathed a sigh of relief.
At this present moment, Shen Liangchuan and Prince were standing outside the door.
Shen Liangchuan stared at Prince.
Prince raised an eyebrow. “Best Actor Shen, do you want to go stay with me?”
Shen Liangchuan lowered his gaze plainly and said, “No need, I will book a room myself.”
“Oh, I didn’t know you were able to get yourself a room. I’ll leave you alone then.”
After Prince finished speaking, he entered his own room straightaway.
Whereas Shen Liangchuan narrowed his eyes and gave Song Cheng a call.
Five minutes later, he got a room right beside Qiao Lian.
Shen Liangchuan was dragging his luggage into the room when Song Cheng called. “Brother Shen.”
Shen Liangchuan spoke with a cold voice. “Have you checked properly? The filming crew’s rules are that only the male and the female lead can stay on the top floor. Why is Prince also staying on this floor?”
Song Cheng answered hurriedly, “I’ve checked! They said that Prince was the one who reserved that room by himself. It wasn’t the one the crew gave him.”
Shen Liangchuan hupmhed. His heart was filled with rage.
The opportunity to be together with Xiao Qiao legitimately was totally gone!

Meanwhile, Prince entered his room and picked up his cell phone to call his big brother, Jiang Zheng.
The moment the line got connected, Jiang Zheng’s voice responded, “What’s up? What did you do wrong this time?”
Prince immediately cleared his throat and said, “I didn’t. Brother, I wanted to tell you that you’ve been deceived!”
Jiang Zheng was stunned. “What?”
Prince twitched his mouth and said, “You know, that Best Actor Shen actually wanted to make a move on a minor actress and force her. You told me that he was a good person. If he was indeed someone who treated his wife well, how could he succ.u.mb to that kind of indecent behavior? Humph, Brother, I have seen his true colours with my own eyes. You shouldn’t stop me from confronting him.”
“Don’t sprout nonsense. Shen Liangchuan is not that kind of person.”
“I am not speaking nonsense, I just came from the female actress’ room. Best Actor Shen was even helped by the crew, forcing the little female caster! Humph, I don’t care, I only believe in what I have seen! I insist on confronting him. Brother, I thought you hated people who forsook others after using them? It’s a deal then! Brother, I won’t speak to you anymore. I need to get ready and think of what to do to ruin his plans!”

Meanwhile, at the Lu family’s villa.
The a.s.sistant lowered his head and hesitated as he walked into Lu Nanze’s study.
At that moment, Lu Nanze was looking down at the doc.u.ments. He raised his head to look at the a.s.sistant. “What’s wrong?”
The a.s.sistant answered with a stammer, “Mr. Lu, we’ve found out the reason why Ms. Qiao has been going to the hospital.”
Looking at his demeanor, Lu Nanze thought that Qiao Lian had contracted some incurable disease. He stood up suddenly. “What happened?”
The junior a.s.sistant immediately pa.s.sed the investigation report to Lu Nanze.
Lu Nanze lowered his head and scanned the doc.u.ment anxiously. Finally, he froze and spoke in disbelief. “She’s pregnant?”
