"Be careful." The host helped Shangguan Wu up and asked with concern, "Master, are you tired?"
Shangguan Wu thanked her, "Thank you. I'm not feeling well, may I go ahead for a bit?"
The host wanted to persuade her to persevere, because today's media come from nine countries, and the interview segment could help her become famous worldwide overnight.
Of course, she will also be known as a perfumer by the Perfumery Association.
The host realized that Shangguan Wu's status meant she didn't need this endorsement, and no one dared to ignore her.
"OK."
"Thanks."
Shangguan Wu breathed a sigh of relief.
The host laughed and said, "You're welcome! Please, Master, launch the Glory Perfume soon; I absolutely love it!"
Shangguan Wu was slightly taken aback, then curled her lips into a smile: "Okay."
After the group photo, the next segment was the media interviews.
However, Shangguan Wu did not accept interviews due to health reasons. When she left wearing the crown that belonged to the champion, she looked just like a Disney princess who had run away.
Back in the backstage lounge, Zhuang Qian had been waiting for quite some time.
She looked at the game screen on Zhuang Qian's laptop and asked directly, "Have you logged into the game? Have you contacted her?"
Zhuang Qian frowned: "No."
Shangguan Wu noticed that his expression was off: "What's wrong?"
Zhuang Qian replied, "I made a promise with Sister Ji that I would log into the game every two days, whether I have something to do or not. This is a message she sent me a month ago, saying that the island is cracking down on the internet and I can't log into the game for the time being."
Shangguan Wu's heart skipped a beat: "A crackdown on the internet? Have we been discovered?"
Unaware of this, Zhuang Qian felt a vague unease in his heart.
"Let's try to look on the bright side; maybe she'll change after a while..."
“A month has passed. If she is safe, she should have been online by now, unless something happened on the island and she is unable to access the internet.”
Zhuang Qian was no longer an innocent child. His face darkened, and his voice betrayed a hint of lingering fear: "But Sister Ji's father is in charge. If others can't access the internet, she must be able to find a way. But it's been so long, and we still haven't heard from her..."
Zhuang Qian suspected that something had happened to her!
But he didn't even know the island's coordinates, so he couldn't find her and couldn't help her at all.
Suddenly, a remark from Shangguan Wu enlightened him.
"Does she have anyone playing this game around her?" Shangguan Wu asked.
A glint of light flashed in Zhuang Qian's eyes. He immediately searched for someone in his friend list and spotted that name lit up, indicating that she was online.
Zhuang Qian opened the chat window with her: [Sasha, why are you the only one online? Where is Sister Ji?]
Sasha: [Bro, I'm not the real person.]
Zhuang Qian's eyelids twitched: [You're not Sasha herself?]
Sasha: [That brat made me do quests for her, gave me her account and then never logged in again. Do you know her? Could you please pass on a message to her? If she doesn't log in soon, I'm going to use two accounts to go to the Matchmaker to dissolve our romantic relationship!]
Zhuang Qian: "..."
He can't even find anyone himself, so how can he pass on a message?
Shangguan Wu saw what the other person said, while Zhuang Qian remained motionless and silent. Her eyebrows twitched slightly. Could this be the only one?
However, there really was only one.
Knock knock—
As the knocking sounded, Ji Moyan's voice pierced through the door: "Wu Bao, Mom's coming in!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Moyan pushed open the door and entered, carrying a thermos.
Qin Xiaoxian and Shangguan Lin followed them into the rest room.
"Mom." Shangguan Wu walked back to her resting area, linking arms with Qin Xiaoxian on one arm and Shangguan Lin on the other, and said, "Mom, Dad, you haven't come home yet?"
Shangguan Lin had been grumbling the whole way, and if his mother-in-law hadn't been there, he would have already pinched his little girl's ear.
What do you mean they haven't gone home yet?
Isn't it because we're worried about her health that we've kept her here until now?
“Wu Bao, that last one you mentioned…” Shangguan Lin swallowed back the words “son-in-law brand” that were on the tip of his tongue, “The Glory perfume is pretty good!”
Shangguan Wu blinked: "Dad, I'll bring it to you tomorrow!"
Shangguan Lin's lips curled up instantly, but the next second, he maintained a reserved expression: "You just finished the competition, you should rest for three days first."
Ji Moyan poured the chicken soup into a bowl and handed it to Shangguan Wu, saying, "Wu Bao, drink a bowl of chicken soup first."
"Thank you, Mom." Shangguan Wu took the bowl, sat down, and slowly drank.
Qin Xiaoxian sat down beside her and asked with concern, "Wu Bao, did you feel any fetal movement earlier? Did you feel any discomfort anywhere?"
Shangguan Wu looked at her, her eyes crinkling into a smile: "Yeah, it was just a little while, I'm fine, he was just joking with me."
Qin Xiaoxian raised her hand and patted her head: "When you get home, take a good rest. Don't pay attention to your dad. If he wants to hold the baby, give him to him. He can't use it anyway."
Shangguan Lin thought to himself, "If I can't use it, I can watch it!"
However, he chimed in, "Yes, I don't need it. You should take good care of yourself and not waste your time."
Shangguan Wu blinked twice: "Okay~"
Looking at his beloved daughter, now completely preoccupied with another man, Shangguan Lin felt as if his heart had been soaked in sour water.
"Honey, let's buy two lemon trees and plant them."
Qin Xiaoxian: "..."
I don't really want to talk to him.
Shangguan Wu pretended not to notice that her father was jealous and silently drank her chicken soup.
On the other side, Zhuang Qian left a message for Ji Tiantian before logging off the game.
Little did he know that as soon as he logged off the game, Martha ditched the person who was helping her with the quests and logged into the game herself.
Zhuang Qian looked at Shangguan Wu, who was surrounded by her family, with envy in his eyes.
He originally had parents and an older brother.
But they all left. Later, Ji Tiantian took care of him like an older sister, and she became his only family in the world.
But he has been alone ever since he left that island.
If he hadn't gone to sea, none of his family members would have been in trouble.
Zhuang Qian suddenly made a vow in his heart that he must destroy that island, no matter the cost!
After Shangguan Wu finished drinking the chicken soup, Ji Moyan packed up the thermos and prepared to leave.
She looked at her mother-in-law and said, "Mom, wait for me a moment. I need to talk to Mr. Zhuang."
As she spoke, she stepped forward, pulled back the curtain, and walked up to Zhuang Qian.
Ji Moyan and Qin Xiaoxian both looked over in surprise.
Shangguan Lin glared at Zhuang Qian.
Shangguan Wu took out his phone and handed it to him, saying, "Mr. Zhuang, let's exchange contact information. If my people find the island you mentioned, I will notify you immediately."
Zhuang Qian snapped out of his daze, answered the phone, and entered a number: "Thank you, Fourth Young Madam. I will also inform you of any developments from the organization."
His individual strength is too insignificant. If he cooperates with Shangguan Wu, with the head of a powerful family as his backer, he can do much more.
He returned the phone to her.
Shangguan Wu, whose purpose was information sharing, put away his phone and replied with a "Goodbye."
"Goodbye," Zhuang Qian replied.
After Shangguan Wu left the stadium with her family, she suddenly realized that two people were missing from the car: "Mom, didn't Grandpa Village Chief and Master Huang come today?"
