Chapter 85: So wine
Mu Sheng’s channel popularity rocketed to number one on the platform on this very night. She was undoubtedly the best new live telecaster out there. Even the veteran live telecasters could not keep up with the speed of her success.
Since it was almost bedti, Mu Sheng wanted to sign out of Cat Live. Considering the number of gifts Chen had given her, she sent him a private text ssage to say goodbye. To the audience’s dismay, she ended the live telecast.
Li Hanchen’s lips curved into a smile as he looked at Mu Sheng’s text ssage: [Thank you for the gifts.]
He promptly replied before turning off the computer: [You are welco. Goodnight.]
Even though it was late at night, the Cat Live offices remained brightly lit.
“Liu Qiang, explain yourself. Why did you ban Mu from doing live telecasts?” His superior threw a docunt in front of Liu Qiang with a thud, leaving everyone in the office startled.
It was already after office hours, but their superior suddenly sent a text ssage through their group chat, notifying everyone of an urgent eting at the office. The employees ca back reluctantly just in ti to catch Liu Qiang get scolded.
“Let explain. I thought Mu cheated. Also, a lot of people complained about him cheating. I was just trying to calm the viewers when I froze his account,” explained Liu Qiang softly with his head lowered.
“The gaming company hasn’t even finished the investigation, so what gave you the right to freeze his account? Now it is impossible to get in touch with Mu. You have one day to get in touch with him. Or else, don’t even bother coming back.”
Chen’s 99 Endless Stars had left the viewers in shock. The audience was not alone, even Cat Live was blown away by this news. Their superior was spending ti at ho with his new wife when he was urgently called to the office for a eting.
Higher managent rarely paid close attention to specific live telecasters, let alone a rookie. This ti, the 99 Endless Stars Mu Sheng had received and the so-called cheating promptly put her under their radar.
Cat Live’s higher managent was excellent at finding talent.
He quickly caught the whiff of a money-making opportunity on Mu. Mu was a great gar and highly controversial. Now he even found himself such a generous supporter. He would definitely beco a huge hit in the future!
“Absolutely. I will check tonight.” It never dawned on Liu Qiang that Mu would be this good. He cursed Wei in his heart. Wei kept talking badly about Mu and he believed him. Now he was in major trouble.

Mu Sheng took a bath after she was done with her live telecast. By the ti she was done, she was no longer sleepy. She walked downstairs to the living room to have a drink. The mont she turned, she saw Li Hanchen walking downstairs.
Heaters were already installed throughout the villa, so Li Hanchen was only dressed in his sleeping robe. It brought out his perfect figure and well-chiseled features. He seed particularly gorgeous under the light like a srizing demon from the darkness.
Despite this, Mu Sheng asked, “Aren’t you cold?”
Li Hanchen walked over and stood in front of Mu Sheng. “Are you unable to sleep?”
“Uh huh.” Mu Sheng nodded.
“Want so wine?” Li Hanchen walked up to the corner of the living room and retrieved a bottle of red wine from a box. “It will help you sleep.”
“Sure.” Mu Sheng was not a good drinker, but it was fine for her to have a small drink every now and then.
Fire was blazing in the fireplace next to the French windows. Mu Sheng and Li Hanchen sat on the ground with a glass of red wine each. It was silent outside and equally quiet inside the living room.
Li Hanchen finally said after a long silence, “How was the live telecast?”
“Pretty good.” Mu Sheng took a sip of wine.
She was wearing a nightdress, so her flawless calves could be seen as she sat on the ground. The warm firelight made her legs glow and looked sensual.
Li Hanchen glanced at her legs and averted his eyes. He automatically swallowed before finishing his entire glass of wine.
Mu Sheng did not detect anything amiss. She frowned slightly when she saw Li Hanchen drink all the wine in one gulp. She ca closer to Li Hanchen. “Give your hand.”
Li Hanchen automatically gave Mu Sheng his hand. Mu Sheng’s faint scent drifted into his nose and surrounded him as she placed her cool fingers on his wrist. Li Hanchen could sense his throat going a little dry as he looked at her and took his pulse.
“Stop drinking.” After Mu Sheng examined Li Hanchen’s pulse, she said, “You shouldn’t drink too much wine.”
The mont Mu Sheng finished her sentence, she raised her head to look into Li Hanchen’s dark eyes. A complicated look surged in his eyes as though sothing was brewing. Also, it seed as though he was suppressing sothing inside. She could not help trembling.
Mu Sheng veered her eyes uneasily. “Did you hear ?”
“Uh huh. Got it.” Since they were sitting very close to each other, Mu Sheng could sll the faint scent of red wine and it was simply intoxicating.
Fire crackled in the fireplace beside them as the light flickered. Mu Sheng felt a little warm. She wanted to stand up with her glass but did not realize Li Hanchen was pressing on the corner of her nightdress.
The mont she stood up, she was tripped.
Mu Sheng fell face first to the side due to inertia. Li Hanchen hurriedly went over to help Mu Sheng when he saw this.
Mu Sheng instinctively pulled him. Since both of them were losing balance, they fell squarely on the carpet with Li Hanchen beneath Mu Sheng. Li Hanchen slightly frowned from the pain when Mu Sheng landed on him, but he looked at her. “Are you okay?”
“I’m fine.” Mu Sheng shook her head. Since she had landed on Li Hanchen, everything was alright for her.
An entire glass of red wine had spilled on Li Hanchen, so there was so red wine on his face. Mu Sheng imdiately used her sleeve to wipe it. “My bad. I spilled wine on you.”
However, Mu Sheng detected sothing wrong with the atmosphere as she wiped the wine off his face.
The faint spicey scent of wine wafted around them. The atmosphere around them felt as though it was on fire. It was so hot that it made their ears blush. Li Hanchen seed to be doing his utmost to control himself. He frowned as he said, “Get up first.”
Mu Sheng finally realized how close they were. She was lying prone on Li Hanchen. Li Hanchen had his arms around her to stop the fall. It looked as though Li Hanchen was embracing her.
Mu Sheng hurriedly stood up. It must be a really bad day to wear a nightdress. Li Hanchen happened to be pressing on her nightdress. After putting a slight distance between them, she fell back into Li Hanchen’s arms.
Veins throbbed on Li Hanchen’s forehead as he pulled Mu Sheng’s wrist and suddenly flipped over. He held Mu Sheng with one hand while he pushed against the carpeted ground with the other with emotions surging through his eyes.
