Chapter 14: Live Streaming Incident

Chapter 14

In circles like Sheng Yuxiao's, anyone you pick out would have a net worth of over 10 billion.

With vast wealth and a respected social status, one would think they'd have no worries.

Except when it comes to raising children.

Mrs. Qin, with her gentle and considerate temperament, never imagined she'd give birth to a son with such a gloomy personality, never seen with a smile.

Mrs. Qin often dreamed of her son becoming a deranged serial killer and ending up behind bars.

At first, Mrs. Qin thought her son had too few friends.

So Qin Sui started making friends.

Now, Qin Sui had countless followers, but his personality remained as gloomy as ever.

As Mrs. Qin pondered this, she couldn't help but start to tear up.

Mr. Qin, a man of reserved character, saw his wife crying pitifully. He furrowed his brow and immediately made a decision: "Alright, let's send him to try it out."

Qin Sui had to interject: "Has anyone asked for my opinion?"

Mr. Qin, as if he hadn't heard, took out his phone and said: "Hold on, let me find the contact information for the show's production team."

Mrs. Qin nodded repeatedly while leaning against his arm.

Qin Sui: "..."

"Mother, Father, I won't go."

Mr. Qin, without turning back, said: "Good, I've got the phone number."

Mrs. Qin exclaimed joyfully: "That's wonderful!"

Qin Sui: "..."

The show's executive director received an unexpected call: "Hello, who is this?"

"This is Qin Haoming."

The director thought to himself, who's Qin Haoming? You should clarify your specific identity! Which company are you from, are you here for collaboration or what?

These thoughts ran through the director's mind, and then in a flash, he realized!

Qin Haoming!

The one and only Qin Haoming! The man who had opened luxury shopping malls all over the world, prominently featured on the Forbes list!

He didn't need to specify his company or identity!

"Mr... Mr. Qin?" The director stammered.

Mr. Qin had actually called him personally!

"Mm, I've seen your show. It's not bad," Mr. Qin, being very busy, paused briefly and said concisely, "I want to send my son over. What do you think?"

This was an enormous surprise, no, shock. The director's expression changed slightly, feeling a bit overwhelmed, he said, "Do... do you know that the young master of the Sheng Family is also on this show?"

The man who had just called your son an idiot.

"I know, that's why I thought of sending my son to you, isn't it? How else would I have come up with this idea?"

"But... but your son and the Sheng Family's heir don't get along very well..." Wouldn't that blow the entire production team sky-high?

"It's precisely because they don't get along that he needs to go. Boys need to compete more to develop good character."

"..." The director was at a loss for words. "But the show's rules only allow for one participant."

[What's wrong?]

"It looks like there's been a landslide up ahead," the staff member said with a frown.

Sheng Yuxiao squinted his eyes and looked. The road extended forward, but at the end, a dark mass blocked the way.

Indeed, there had been a landslide. He had been so focused on chatting with Li Xiaoya that he hadn't noticed at all.

"That's perfect, no need to go to school then. Go home and rest," Sheng Yuxiao thought it was a good idea. He would help Li Xiaoya pick mushrooms later.

Li Xiaoya nodded disappointedly and started walking back through the muddy water.

But after just a few steps...

The staff member's expression suddenly changed, and he shouted, "Holy shit!"

"Young Master Sheng, quick, run! There's a landslide!"

Everything happened with incredible speed.

The scent of earth in their nostrils suddenly became overwhelmingly strong, followed by a thunderous "boom." Sheng Yuxiao tossed aside the umbrella, wrapped Li Xiaoya against his chest, and sprinted away on his long legs.

Part of the mountainside came rushing down, carrying mud, rocks, and the trees and plants that grew on the slope, all sliding down together.

The camera shook violently as the production crew ran for their lives, not even sparing a moment to check on Sheng Yuxiao's situation.

Sheng Yuxiao held his breath and ran frantically for several miles.

Finally, the rumbling stopped.

The collapsed part of the mountain had piled up on the road.

The production crew glanced back, still feeling shaken, and hurriedly urged, "Let's go, let's go back to the village first!"

Sheng Yuxiao slowly exhaled, then looked down only to realize he was holding Li Xiaoya upside down.

Cursing himself for being careless, he quickly turned her right-side up and asked, "Did you get hurt?"

Li Xiaoya's eyes trembled, and the tears that had been welling up instantly spilled over.

How could Sheng Yuxiao bear to see this? Just as he was about to comfort her, he heard Li Xiaoya cry out with a "wah": "You... you're bleeding..."

Me? I'm bleeding?

Sheng Yuxiao put Li Xiaoya down on the ground and lowered his gaze to look.

His pant leg was torn, and blood had soaked through a large area of the fabric. But because the pants were dark in color, it wasn't immediately noticeable.

Sheng Yuxiao's breath caught for a moment, and only then did he feel an intense, bone-deep pain spreading into his brain.

The production crew heard the commotion and looked over as well.

Then they all panicked in unison: "Quick! Quick! Let's go back and get the car! We need to get to the hospital!"

Otherwise, those two from the Sheng family would have their heads for this!

This live broadcast accident once again topped the trending topics.

Not only did Sheng Jun and Xu Qiulai see it, but Mr. Qin saw it too.

Mr. Qin, busy as he was, took a moment to call the chief director again: "I suppose you have an opening now?"

The chief director was shocked to receive the call.

You're still thinking about that opening at a time like this!

As expected of the Sheng family's mortal enemy!

I almost suspected you might be able to control the weather and triggered a landslide to crush the Sheng family's only son right then and there!
