Our Glamorous Time

Chapter 76: Nobody is a Worthy Opponent

After she had received her brother's call, Lin Qian sat in her hotel room and looked out the window at the blurry night sky, while using a towel to wipe her wet hair.

She had just finished bathing. The was a hotel situated in the northern suburbs of the city and it was also distant from Aida Organization. The driver had brought her and Li Zhicheng there directly.

In one moment, she thought to herself: "It's unthinkable that she, Lin Qian, would actually also face a situation where she was unable to return home." Because the reporters and media were following rather closely and they still had to protect against other troublemakers, they were temporarily unable to return to Li Zhicheng's townhouse or her small rented home.

She did not know how long they had put up with this situation.

At the moment, it was already past 11 o'clock at night. The outskirts were even more silent and all the little villages and towns had no light other than the stars; almost everyone was already in a deep sleep. Only Li Zhicheng was in the living room outside, with Xue Mingtao, Jiang Yuan and the rest with their indistinct voices travelling through the partially opened bedroom door:

"Send them all to the police station and give a greeting to Zhao, the bureau deputy director."

"Control all the reporters that can be controlled."

"Gather all the staff who are department managers and above first thing tomorrow morning for a meeting."

Li Zhicheng's voice was calm and deep. Because of his composed calmness after being angry, Lin Qian felt that his terrorizing power was even stronger.

Lin Qian walked over and tightly shut the bedroom door. Only then did she tell Lin Mochen, who was waiting on the line, "I'm fine. I've already arrived at the hotel with Li Zhicheng... Surprise attack? No, it was just some people making a scene and we were blocked but we took the chance and got in a car to escape... How would they have attacked me?"

With her brother, she usually reported only the good news and not the bad as a rule of thumb. All the more reason that she did not mention about her being hit by the egg.

But this time, she couldn't hide it. Because Lin Mochen said neutrally, "Still keeping it from me? I've already seen the picture of you being hit by the egg."

Lin Qian was also confused about where he had even seen the picture. However, she knew that her brother had always possessed unusual powers and had many means of doing things, so she did not question him anymore closely. When she heard him speak, she inadvertently felt a little aggrieved and answered, "Alright, I was only hit by one but Li Zhicheng was hit by four or five on his back. It was a little painful but I wasn't hurt." She paused for a while and after sighing, she said, "My heart ached way more than my physical pains."

Her words were said half-jokingly but Lin Mochen grew silent listening to it.

"Where are you? I'll come over."

Lin Qian hesitated, "I don't think that's a very good idea. Especially at this point when things are in chaos."

However, evidently, every time Lin Mochen was angry, the overcast aura that enveloped him was different from that of Li Zhicheng. Not only did he have that aura, he also had an ominous aura that made people cautious.

He laughed coldly and said, "Address!"

Lin Qian immediately gave him the name of the hotel and the room number. With a "toot, toot, toot", the phone had been hung up by him.

Lin Qian felt at a loss whether to laugh or cry. If he wanted to come, then he would come, she had no need to worry if she had done nothing wrong. It was her brother after all, so he definitely would not let the both of them be at a disadvantage again.
