Chapter 209 Ruan Xiaoqi, are you Conan? (Update 1)
The live broadcast time of "The Strongest King Meets the King" is at 8 o'clock in the evening. In order to avoid being late due to accidents such as traffic jams, Shen Wenqian and Ruan Qi set off more than an hour in advance.
The imperial capital is bustling with traffic at night, and the lights are bright and prosperous.
Inside the car, Mo Lan handed the organized competition rules to Ruan Qi.
"The regular season of 'The Strongest King Meets the King' is a tournament. You are today's challenger. Here are the profiles of the ten defenders. Take a look."
Ruan Qi took the information obediently and glanced through it.
Mo Lan carefully helped her turn up the brightness of the car lights.
"The show lasts for an hour and a half, divided into two parts, with a five-minute break in between. The schedule is very tight. Can you adapt to it?"
"Sure." Ruan Qi nodded, looking relaxed. "By the way, Sister Lan, did you give my brother the ticket?"
Mo Lan: "Yes. He just sent a message and has already left."
Ruan Qi's eyes curved with joy.
She picked up her phone and opened the WeChat group.
[It's Xiao Qi: Tonight at 8 o'clock, "The Strongest King Meets the King", don't forget it! ]
Suddenly, the Ruan family group became lively.
[The most handsome old man Ruan: [scatter flowers][firecrackers][applause]]
[The most handsome old man Ruan: My lovely granddaughter is going to be on TV! [Cheers.jpg]]
[Fuguihuakai: My dear granddaughter, your grandfather has already notified the entire village. Everyone will be watching your show tonight!]
Yang Liuan: Xiaoqi baby, this is Lemon TV, right? Mommy will download Lemon TV later to help you boost your ratings! [Blows a kiss]
[Xiaofeng Canyue: My wife is the best, and my daughter is the best. Don't worry, Niuniu, we've already arranged two TVs, three computers, and four tablets at home. Go Niuniu!]
[Puppy: Hehehe, you guys can only watch it on TV, but I can go see it in person! [Ticket photo]]
【'Puppy' has been kicked out of the group chat. 】
[There's a vicious disciple and a vicious dog in the house: Sorry, I didn't teach him well. I'll keep a record of it and beat him up when he returns to the village. [40-meter-long sword.jpg]]
Ruan Qi happily chatted with her family for more than 40 minutes while holding her phone. She only turned off the phone reluctantly when the car stopped downstairs of Lemon TV Station.
The car drove into the underground parking garage and several people got into the elevator.
The spot for "The Strongest King Meets the King" was obtained by Meng Boyi. Now that Ruan Qi has come to the TV station, she must go and say hello to him.
The elevator went directly to the eighth floor, and Shen Wenqian took Ruan Qi to the deputy director's office.
Meng Boyi received the two of them warmly and once again expressed his gratitude to Ruan Qi for curing his mother's leg.
"Miss Ruan, my father received the Tianwang Hair Growth Pills sent by your junior apprentice yesterday. This batch of medicine will be officially available on the shelves of the Third Hospital starting tomorrow. My father asked me to express my gratitude to you. I wonder when you are free. Our family would like to treat you to a meal."
"You're welcome, Director Meng." Ruan Qi smiled faintly. "I've been secluded on the set filming lately. I'll wait for a while. I also want to discuss the next batch of medicine with Director Meng."
Meng Boyi nodded repeatedly: "Okay. By the way, Miss Ruan, my father has always wanted to add you on WeChat, what do you think..."
"Sure." Ruan Qi nodded happily. "Give me Grandpa Meng's WeChat ID and I'll add him."
After leaving Meng Boyi's office, Shen Wenqian went to the restroom. Ruan Qi found a quiet spot and squatted down, playing with her phone while waiting for him.
The corridor was very quiet, with only the occasional staff member walking hurriedly by.
Ruan Qi finished playing a game of connect-the-dots and moved her legs to change her position when she suddenly heard a "gulp" sound from behind her.
The little girl was startled and turned around quickly to look, but the corridor was empty, without a single person in sight.
Where did such a big commotion come from?
Could it be a ghost?
Ruan Qi put the phone in his pocket and stood up from the ground.
Just then.
"...Hmm..." A suppressed gasp was heard.
Ruan Qi's first reaction was that someone was sick. She raised her foot to go check, but suddenly remembered that Ye Ran had been panting like this when he cried secretly last time.
I couldn't help but stop.
The little girl's facial features were twisted together.
Suddenly, there was a "bang" sound, and the warehouse door only one meter away from her trembled violently.
Then, the suppressed sounds of "hmmmm" were heard one after another, which lasted for three minutes. Then, there was a low growl that sounded like pain, and everything returned to calm.
Two minutes later, the warehouse door opened.
A young man in his twenties walked out. He seemed not to have expected that there would be someone in such a remote corridor. He lowered his head and buttoned his coat as he walked.
After buttoning his shirt, he looked up.
Just happened to meet Ruan Qi's puzzled gaze.
The young man's face suddenly changed.
"Why are you here?!" he demanded harshly.
Ruan Qi frowned and was about to speak when a woman's voice came from the warehouse.
"Who are you talking to?"
"Ruan Xiaoqi, why are you here?" Shen Wenqian's voice sounded at the same time.
He popped up from the corner of the corridor, strode to Ruan Qi, and patted her on the head.
"The TV station is so big, what if it gets lost?"
Ruan Qi shrank his neck guiltily.
At this time, the woman in the warehouse came out. Shen Wenqian was stunned when he saw her face.
"Director Zhou?"
When the woman saw Ruan Qi and Shen Wenqian, her expression changed slightly and she reflexively glanced at the young man.
The young man's breath was a little heavy.
The woman's eyes flashed, and she put on a proper smile and said to Shen Wenqian: "So it's Mr. Shen, bringing an artist to record the show?"
"Yeah. I didn't expect to see you here."
Shen Wenqian shook hands with the woman and was about to introduce her identity to Ruan Qi when the woman suddenly spoke.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Shen, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
After she finished speaking, she hurried away without waiting for Shen Wenqian to reply.
The young man beside him looked at Ruan Qi solemnly and followed.
Shen Wenqian looked at the two people's hurried backs, completely confused.
"Strange," he said, full of confusion, "What's the hurry?"
"Brother Chen, who is that woman?" Ruan Qi suddenly asked.
Shen Wenqian: "Oh, her name is Zhou Wen, and she's one of the directors of 'The Strongest King Meets the King'. I was just trying to get you to know her, but who knew she'd leave so quickly."
"What about the man next to her?" Ruan Qi asked again.
"That?" Shen Wenqian touched his nose and said uncertainly, "It should be a contestant of 'The Strongest King Meets the King'. Last time when I was confirming the schedule with the production team, I heard someone say that Zhou Wen recommended a contestant who seemed to be her niece's boyfriend. He should be the one just now.
Ruan Qi let out a small "Oh".
Shen Wenqian glanced at her and said, "Ruan Xiaoqi, what did you say to that man just now? Why does he look unhappy?"
"Nothing."
The little girl shook her head slowly, and then uttered a word lightly -
"I just happened to see them engaging in the Great Harmony of Life!~"
