I was just playing tricks, how come I became Bai Yueguang

Shen Garden.

The bluestone floor in the flower hall was covered with fragmented light, and dewdrops were still hanging on the leaves of the plants that had just been watered. The swordplay in Whale Harbor seemed to have quietly ceased here.

Sandalwood was lit in the tea room. Shen Zhuang was lying in a rosewood rocking chair with his eyes closed, while Shen Lanxi was sitting at the table making tea.

The hall was quiet, with the occasional sound of boiling tea.

Outside the hall, Zheng Song strode across the flower hall. "Old man, I just received news that the Guan family's car exploded on the overpass. The police have now blocked all related roads."

Shen Lanxi raised her wrist slightly, and the sound of water pouring into the pot stopped abruptly. Shen Zhuang slowly opened his eyes, sighed softly, and sat up.

Shen Lanxi looked calm and handed the teacup over with both hands, "Grandpa, please have some tea."

Shen Zhuang took the teacup and blew on the soup, "Yu Siwen finally took action."

Shen Lanxi poured herself a glass and gave an objective assessment, "Yu Siwen had long anticipated that the Guan family wouldn't sit idly by and watch him stage a show, so he deliberately spread false information to lure Guan Lou's attention to the conference center, and then set an ambush on the necessary route. He was quite thoughtful. After all, who would have thought that a father could plot murder while watching his daughter give a speech on stage?"

Shen Zhuang took a sip without commenting. He looked up at Zheng Song and said, "Go, bring the TV over here and see what other tricks the Yu family has up their sleeves."

"Yes." Zheng Song nodded and turned to leave the flower hall.

"Grandpa, who do you think will win?" Shen Lanxi was not interested in the fight between Guan and Yu. He was asking about the situation.

Shen Zhuang shook his head. "Guan Lou has been in the officialdom all his life, and he's not the type to be so impatient. Yu Siwen has a killer move, but he doesn't have a trump card? It's hard to say until the end of this game. But..."

The wise old man paused, his eyes narrowed slightly, "To dare to kill at this critical moment, Yu Siwen must be extremely confident in his chess skills."

Shen Lanxi stared at the teacup in her hand, her eyes growing darker.

Overpass.

The explosion was so loud that the entire bridge surface shook. Police, using road surveillance cameras, immediately captured the attack, and the first wave of police officers arrived at the scene within five minutes. Because a high-ranking official was involved, police recommended an immediate evacuation, but Guan Lou flatly refused.

Guan He brushed off the dust on his body, looked gloomily at the car that had been blown to pieces, and whispered, "Someone planted a bomb in the car."

If Guan He had not had the sudden idea to pull Guan Lou to change cars, they would have been burned to charcoal by now.

Guan Lou remained calm and suggested that the police escort him to the Jinggang Conference Center. The police didn't dare to ask any more questions and immediately arranged a vehicle. Just as the two were about to get in, Guan He received a message from Zhou Yanheng:

-【The press conference venue has been changed to the Whale Harbor Opera House.】

"Damn." Guan He cursed softly and handed the information directly to Guan Lou.

Guan Lou looked stern, pondered for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Let's go to the conference center."

Guan He did not dare to delay at this time and quickly took a few photos of the explosion scene and sent them to Zhou Yanheng.

[We were attacked, but the old man still insisted on going to the conference center.]

Zhou Yanheng put down his phone and looked up at the screen in front of him. The drama hadn't even begun yet, but the number of people online in the upper right corner had already reached a record high. This was not only due to the high level of attention the event itself had attracted, but also to Yu Siwen's instigation.

"No wonder he was able to rise from a humble background to become the president of a country. He must have some skills."

Zhou Yanheng shook his head with a hint of regret. It seemed that they all underestimated this grassroots from Nanwan.

This father was a real secret keeper. It turned out that he had never trusted Yu Sheng from the beginning, so Yu Sheng's information was also false. They had all been deceived.

But Zhou Yanheng didn't feel sorry.

The map and account may be fake, but Yu Sheng’s self-narration cannot be fake. The Yu family is doomed to be finished.

Zhou Yanheng thought for a moment and sent a message to Guan He:

【Check your account, be careful of being exploited. 】

Su family.

In the main hall, Su's mother was crying about Su Miao's sudden departure. Su Zhuo was comforting her in a low voice, while Su Jingliu kept making phone calls. Su Yun did not participate in it. She looked at her watch and stood up to say goodbye.

Returning to the room, she closed the curtains and silently turned on her phone...

On the other side, Whale Harbor Airport.

"Attention, passengers! This is the final boarding announcement for Star Airlines flight MUA333 to Hailan! The flight doors are about to close. Passengers who have not yet boarded please proceed to Gate 33 immediately! Ms. Su Miao, please contact staff as soon as you hear the announcement! This is the final boarding notification. Thank you!"

In the busy waiting hall, Su Miao, wearing headphones, stared intently at the dark screen on her mobile phone.

Cloud Township.

An abandoned mine.

Zhou Qishan sat by the window where the sunlight penetrated, holding a fried dough stick in her mouth, supporting her chin with one hand, staring intently at the broken screen of her mobile phone in her hand.

S country.

Having successfully delivered the message, Fu Suier felt relieved. Because the Queen was very pleased with the exam she had set up, Kong Maolin had granted her a day off. At this moment, she was leisurely holding her phone, waiting for Yu Sheng's live broadcast.

"Strange. There used to be a preview before the live broadcast. It's already two minutes into the countdown, but why is the screen still black? Could it be that we're in a foreign country and the signal is bad?"

At the same time, Shen Nian Villa.

A black slave knocked on Shen Guiling's door and said in broken Mandarin, "The boss wants to see you."

Monastery in Country M.

The old TV was shimmering with white snowflakes, and Xiao Lanlan was sitting in the first row wearing a long cotton and linen dress.

Not far away, a group of girls were wailing, blood oozing out from under them and flowing all the way to her feet.

Upon hearing the noise, the administrator burst in with a baseball bat in hand. "You bastards, what the hell are you doing again—"

Her curses were vulgar, but Xiao Lanlan was already used to it. She tilted her head and smiled, "Sorry, we will keep our voices down."

The nun's face turned pale. "Xiao Lanlan, it's you again! What happened this time?"

Xiao Lanlan smiled harmlessly, "I said I wanted to watch Country A's shows, but they disagreed, so I had to beat them until they agreed."

*

The thirty-second countdown officially begins.

The studio of Whale Harbor Opera House in Country A.

The live broadcast signal is transmitted to every corner of the world through countless network cables.

Yu Sheng, who was standing behind the curtain waiting to enter, had a numb expression, like a soulless puppet, and slowly walked towards the camera.

3...2...1

The lights converged, and millions of people stared. Yu Sheng held his trembling body and slowly raised his eyes:

"Hello everyone, I'm Yu Sheng..."
