Chapter 118: Planning to Steal Bride

What surprised him, even more, was that there was even a lot of research on the USB.
The more he looked, the more jealous he became of Gu Shiyan.
“Miaomiao, do you think it’s illegal to kidnap a bride?”
Lu Miao slowly swallowed the food in her mouth and said slowly, “It’s not illegal to kidnap a bride, but if you kidnap me, I’ll directly twist off the head of the person who attempted it.”
Fu Jingshen shivered and subconsciously raised his hand to cover his neck.
He coughed twice and seriously discussed with Lu Miao the specifics of setting up a technology company.
When the two of them finished chatting and were about to leave, Lu Miao glanced at Fu Jingshen.” Have you been to any special places recently? Have you met any special people?”
Fu Jingshen knew that Lu Miao wouldn’t ask such a question so casually. He thought about it seriously.” Other than a trip to Luo City last week, I haven’t been anywhere else since I came back.” What’s wrong? Is there a problem?”
Lu Miao tapped her fingertips on the table.
Fu Jingshen’s eyebrows were filled with a faint resentment, but it didn’t seem to be directed at him. It was probably because he had gone somewhere or met someone and accidentally got infected.
“It’s okay. Pay more attention to the people you come into contact with when you go out recently. Don’t go to strange places.”
“Alright.”
Fu Jingshen nodded. Seeing that Lu Miao had no intention of saying more, he tactfully did not ask any more questions.
Lu Miao stood up and formed a hand seal with her fingers. When she passed by Fu Jingshen, she patted him on the shoulder.
Fu Jingshen felt as if a burden had been lifted off his shoulders, and his entire body relaxed.
Thinking back to what she had said earlier, he immediately guessed that he must have fallen into a trap somewhere. Lu Miao had just solved the problem for him.
Tsk, jealousy had changed him beyond recognition!
How could Gu Shiyan find such an outstanding wife?
He really wanted to steal her back and hide her.
The show that Gu Ziheng recorded was a collaboration with an online platform and was not in the same place as Lu Miao.
The next morning, after the two of them had breakfast, Gu Ziheng personally drove Lu Miao to the television station. He also found a producer he was familiar with and gave him some instructions before leaving to record his own show.
The producer brought Lu Miao to the lounge and entered.
“Lu Miao?” A familiar voice sounded.
Lu Miao looked up and saw Huang Zihao sitting on the sofa against the wall. The moment he saw her, a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes, but he quickly suppressed it.
Squeezing to the side to give her a seat, he spoke awkwardly.
“There are no more seats in the lounge.”
During the last Triwizard Tournament, Huang Zihao had mentioned that he was going to participate in some international competition, so Lu Miao was not surprised that he would be participating in the show.
He looked around the lounge and found that all the seats were occupied. There was only a little space left for him to stand.
Next to them, another person mocked, “This rest area they arranged for us is too small. I just passed by the foreign participants’ lounge, and it’s bigger than our lounge, even though we have more than ten people. They even have massage chairs and video game facilities. It’s such a discrepancy.”
“Well, that’s the unfair treatment locals get-” The other opponent mocked himself sarcastically.
This kind of phenomenon is not uncommon, but they never expected to encounter it even in a TV show.
Lu Miao pursed her lips and sat down.
Because the theme of the show was science, and the participants were all students, there was no need for makeup.
A group of people were huddled on a few small sofas. Some were watching last year’s show to gain experience, while others were discussing the possible challenges that the program team might come up with, waiting for the announcement of the start of the show.
Lu Miao took out her phone and turned on silent mode to play games.
The person on the right wanted to talk to her, but when he saw that she was taking it seriously, he shook his head and turned away in disappointment.
Seeing this, Huang Zihao couldn’t help but come over and introduce the players in the lounge to her in a low voice.
They were all legendary figures who had participated in various world championships in their respective fields and achieved remarkable results.
This program could be considered a gathering of talented individuals.
While introducing, the door to the rest area suddenly swung open from the outside.
A man who looked to be in his thirties and was not much taller than Lu Miao walked in from outside.
He looked around the lounge arrogantly and said in his broken English,”
Where’s Wa-tar man? Which one is Wa-tar man?”
When Lu Miao heard the strange pronunciation, she raised her head and glanced at the person from head to toe. After that, she lowered her eyes and continued playing her game.
Huang Zihao explained to her in a low voice,” He meant “Water Man”. He was a participant in the show last year. When he participated in the show previously, he accurately picked out the cup of water that the guest had designated from the 520 cups of water and became famous.
Hence, he was given the title of Water Man. Later on, he even directly defeated a player from the R country in a showdown with a foreign team. He’s an absolute legendary figure on the show. He was also very popular on the Internet, but he did not participate in the show this year due to health reasons. This guy looked like he was from Country R.
Lu Miao calmly hummed in agreement. If they really wanted to settle the score, they could be considered to have a feud, so it was normal for such a thing to happen.
The others had probably guessed the same, and combined with the obvious differential treatment by the production team, they were holding grudges against him. No one in the rest area paid any attention to him at the moment.
However, the man persisted and continued, “What’s the matter? Are you scared and hiding? Or is it because you used some unfair means to win last year, and now you’re afraid of being exposed and losing face, so you don’t dare to come out and face me?”
“When it comes to unfair means, your R country folks are the pioneers. Who hasn’t resorted to unfair tactics against you?” one of the participants couldn’t help but mock.
“You were all once our defeated subordinates. What kind of pig-like creature are you to even dare to speak about my country?” the man arrogantly retorted with a cold snort.
When everyone heard that he still dared to mention the historical invasion, they instantly stood up.
They rolled up their sleeves and surrounded him with killing intent.
Before the recording of the show started, the backstage was already in a commotion.
The commotion in the lounge attracted the attention of the staff. They were afraid that things would get out of hand and went forward to stop them.
The man from Country R snorted coldly and muttered something in his mother tongue.
Everyone guessed that it was definitely not something good, but they did not understand. They did not know how to reply even if they wanted to scold him.
Lu Miao, who had been quietly playing games in the corner, finally raised her head and replied to him in his language.
The man was stunned. He probably didn’t expect that there would be someone here who could understand the language.
The corners of his lips moved. He wanted to say something, but when he saw the murderous gazes of the crowd, he finally left unwillingly under the escort of the staff.
Huang Zihao looked at Lu Miao excitedly..” Boss, do you know R language? What did you reply to him just now?”
