Chapter 134 - Childhood Sweethearts?
Chapter 134 – Childhood Sweethearts?
Xu Nuan and Han Liang were staring at each other in shock as they were not expecting to bump into each other here.
Both were busy staring at each other, forgetting the presence of the cameraman who was standing behind Han Liang and was trying to grab the best shot of their shocked expressions. Although he wasn't aware of the relationship between the two, their shocked expressions were priceless and worth a shot.
If he got a good capture at their expressions and first 'fateful' meeting, then they can at least make a spicy gossip of it. If that happened, then the TRP of the show would skyrocket and he might get a reward. The thrill-filled inside him as he moved to the side, trying to focus on Han Liang's face who was staring at the girl with a deep frown on his face.
Xu Nuan pursed her lips, noticing the cameraman behind Han Liang. She understood now. In the past, she was also invited to this show as a guest but she was not expecting that they found this karaoke as well.
It was the only place that was away from these things but it's not the same anymore.
She turned to look at the screen, realizing that the song was about to the end. She looked at Han Liang, signaling to join her to sing the rest of the verse since the artist has to join the fans to end the song.
But he couldn't understand what was happening and stared at her in confusion.
Xu Nuan frowned and moved closer to him and shared her mic with him, standing closer to him she nudged at him to sing the last verse with her.
Lai Yi also picked her mic and the trio finished the song with their smooth melodic harmonization.
~GoodBye…My First Sad Love!~ Han Liang sang the last line while Xu Nuan stretched the last note a little longer, making everyone stare at her in shock.
Han Liang held onto the mic and stared at Xu Nuan who was standing close to him and was smiling at him with her raised brows.
He looked at her complicatedly and wondered if this is the same girl who starts to insult him with every chance she gets.

[ Woah! That was a great performance. Han Liang, we all really enjoyed your performance with your fans. But we noticed that you were shocked to see Ms. Xu at first. Do you know each other?] The MC asked.
They were now sitting in the interview room where Heart Stealer was already present. Xu Nuan and her girls joined Han Liang for the interview since it was because of them that Han Liang got the win. Although it was the segment of the show where they show the people who sang the song and send them back after giving them prizes.
But it was the first time that rather than just introducing them and sending them back with gifts, they asked them to stay for the interview with Han Liang and the Heart Stealer. She pursed her lips as she could already see the scheme going in their head.
She could have denied and insisted to just leave but she got an idea. Such opportunities are always welcomed!
Han Liang glanced at Xu Nuan who was sitting beside him and frowned. He was not sure what to say at his reaction either since it was obvious that he knows her. But he can't say that she and his brother are in a relationship because firstly, they're not. And even if they were in a relationship, he is not a place to reveal this news to the world because he knows if that happens, Xu Nuan's life could get worse.
And his brother is gonna kill him alive if that happens. Moreover, she is not a saint herself. She will chop off his head and will eat him alive, she is a bloody monster.
He needs to choose his words carefully otherwise, the next few weeks of his life gonna be loud again with rumors.
He was struggling with what to say when Xu Nuan interrupted, " Ah, can I answer in his stead?"
The MC was surprised seeing how casually he was addressing Han Liang and nodded as he passed her the mic to answer the question. Xu Nuan glanced at Han Liang and smiled before saying, " Actually…" she looked at Han Liang once again and smirked which caused his heartbeat to stop.
He looked at her with his widened eyes as her expressions were telling him that something fishy was going on in her head.
He held onto his breath and almost choked on his saliva when he heard her words.
" Actually…we're childhood friends. We haven't seen each other for so long, that's why we got surprised when we saw each other since we weren't expecting to bump into each other like this," she said with her serious expressions while Han Liang couldn't understand what she was saying.
Childhood friends? She was lying without even hesitating. What a con artist she is. He thought.
[Childhood friends? You guys know each other since childhood?] The MC asked with his mouth opened wide, shocked. That's the strangest and most unique excuse he has ever heard. They won't be telling truth, right?
Childhood friends or childhood sweethearts? When they were watching their video earlier from the interview room, he was also surprised to see Han Liang's chemistry with this girl, especially when they sang together.
[Han Liang, is that true?] He turned to Han Liang who was also looking at Xu Nuan in shock.
Han Liang laughed awkwardly and glared at Xu Nuan while trying to avoid giving this interview.
"Well…he pondered when she interrupted him again.
" Of course, it's true. Do you think I would be lying on national television? Do I have to commit suicide by lying on tv?" she joked while Han Liang was looking at her as if begging her to shut up.
She was so blatantly lying and if her lie was discovered, she's gonna face the people's wrath.
Xu Nuan on the other hand was happy with her answer. She was saying the truth, they are indeed childhood friends. He used to come to the foundation with Han Zihao and used to follow her around while she followed Han Zihao.
It's too bad that he forgot about her while growing up and acted like a brat with her, otherwise, there was the possibility of them being best friends. Due to his stupid trashy attitude, he lost the opportunity to be best friends with her.
–
The interview ended shortly since they had a limited time and most of the time Xu Nuan was speaking who kept getting interrupted by Han Liang who was trying to save her from speaking too much but she was so excited that she was spilling the beans as if the MC was her old friend.
After the interview ended, the MC looked at Xu Nuan with a chuckle and asked, " You're a very interesting person. I wonder what kind of work Ms. Xu does?" he asked. Now he realized that he didn't ask about her profession all this while.
His main focus was on her relationship with Han Liang.
" Ah, I am an artist manager at shining bright. Here is my card. These are the artists under me who are going to debut in two weeks, The Knights. Please take care of them!" she passed him her card while making him look at the girls, making him aware of their presence.
The man raised his brows in surprise seeing her smoothly promoting the girls. He looked at the girls and nodded. He had heard them sing through the screen and was very impressed with their skills but he was more shocked upon hearing Xu Nuan's work.
She is a manager and not an artist? The time Han Liang went to the karaoke room, he was watching the girls sing through the screen and was impressed by how soft and clear her voice is.
He smiled and looked at the card with a smile, " Xu Nuan? I will remember this name!" he nodded and went to his vanity room.
" You're happy now? At least control your smile. You're almost jumping in excitement." Han Liang, who secretly walked behind her, said in a low voice, whispering in her ears.
Xu Nuan almost jumped in horror hearing his low voice in her ears. She glared at him and said, " What has it with you? It's only right for me to be happy. Did you see, he said that he will remember my name. My name? As a manager!" she covered her mouth in disbelief as she jumped on the place excitedly.
She had thought that after coming into this world, with a different face and identity, things are going to be difficult but the star MC who has hosted almost all kinds of popular reality shows, told her that he will remember her name.
She would not have been this excited if she was still working as an idol but hearing it when she has no connections and a strong foothold in the industry, meant a lot for her.
.
Han Liang chuckled seeing her laughing like a baby who got appreciation from his mom for doing a good job. However, he stopped laughing when he realized that she is just a delusion, she gonna become the sharp tongue, monster Xu Nuan soon enough.
