150: Chapter 150 The Empress Calls, Three Women Act Like Drama Queens

Lin Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, deliberately lowering his originally lazy voice, revealing a sense of solemnity and eeriness: "You all know that my parents passed away when I was thirteen. It wasn't until I was twenty that I went to work at the restaurant where we met. During those seven blank years in between, haven't you ever been curious... about where I went and what I did?"

"Where... where did you go?" The three women's hearts instantly jumped into their throats.

Lin Chen's tone was ghostly: "This matter has to start from the night of my thirteenth birthday. My parents hadn't been gone long at that time. That birthday night, I felt terrible and couldn't sleep, so I was wandering aimlessly on the streets of Beijing alone."

"I got too tired from walking, so I just hopped on the last bus. I remember clearly that the route sign on the bus said... Route 375."

Lin Chen had a mischievous streak in his bones, and in the middle of the night, he did this to "entertain" his wives.

He simply took those famous urban legends he had seen on the Tianya Forum in his past life—like the Beijing 375 supernatural bus, the cat-faced old lady, the little boy in red, and so on—and threw them all together into a chaotic stew.

Moreover, he shamelessly cast himself as the male protagonist in the story who slays demons and eliminates evil.

Relying on his master-level writing skills and eloquence, he managed to knead these pieced-together, fragmented materials into a thrilling and logically sound work titled "Lin Chen's Version: My Years as a Supernatural Master."

Perhaps because he told it so vividly and realistically, Tong Liya, Liu Shishi, and Guli Nazha listened with rapt attention, completely immersed in the supernatural world he had woven.

Not only them, but even the staff hiding outside the monitoring equipment, as well as the over seven million viewers in the live broadcast room, were all dumbfounded.

A vast majority of them even subconsciously took the stories Lin Chen told as true events!

After all, in everyone's eyes, Lin Chen was just too uncanny.

If he didn't really know some metaphysics or Taoist arts, how could he be so proficient in so many lost crafts at such a young age?

All of this must be because he had some extraordinary "special experiences"!

And what experience could be more convincing than this identity as a supernatural master who slays demons and eliminates evil?

"Hey, hey, hey, didn't you say those face masks should be worn for a maximum of twenty minutes? You've had them on for almost forty minutes now."

After Lin Chen finished the last set of massages for Liu Shishi, he looked up at the wall clock and realized it was almost 11:30 PM.

He decisively stopped his story and reminded the two silly women who were listening with fascination.

"Ah? Oh my god! Forgot, forgot!"

Liu Shishi and Guli Nazha finally snapped out of it, scrambling out of bed in a panic, ready to rush to the bathroom to wash their faces.

However, after just two steps, the two women stopped as if they had been hit by a freezing spell.

They turned their heads, their little faces pale, and looked at Lin Chen with pouting lips and pitiful expressions: "Hubby~ can you accompany us to the bathroom, please... We don't dare to go alone."

Lin Chen was amused to the point of laughter: "The room is brightly lit, and there are a bunch of Production Team people outside, what on earth are you afraid of?"

"Oh! Just come with us, Hubby~ We beg you~"

Liu Shishi and Guli Nazha grabbed Lin Chen's arms from left and right, dragging him toward the bathroom.

Tong Liya hesitated on the bed for two seconds, then followed them in barefoot, trotting along...

Having listened to ghost stories for two hours in the middle of the night, it would be strange if they weren't scared!

The four of them huddled together in the bathroom, and after washing up, they returned to the bedroom.

The three women tidied up the bed and sat cross-legged on the big bed in unison, looking like three well-behaved groundhogs.

Their three pretty faces, bare-faced yet still stunningly beautiful, were upturned, and their eyes stared at Lin Chen with a sparkle: "Hubby, keep telling it~ We want to hear more!"

Lin Chen glanced at his watch: "Hear what? It's almost twelve o'clock, go to sleep."

"No, no! We aren't sleepy at all. Hubby, tell us one more part, okay?"

"Hubby, did you really go into the water to catch a water ghost back then?"

Lin Chen flicked Liu Shishi's smooth forehead in annoyance: "Catch your head! I made that up to tease you! Understand what a novel is? You actually believe this?"

"Ah? You made that up too?" The three women looked full of disappointment.

"Stop dawdling, go cover the camera, and sleep!"

Liu Shishi pouted, climbed out of bed reluctantly, walked to the fixed camera, and waved her fair, delicate hand.

Facing the lens, she instantly put away the little-woman act of acting cute and coquettish in front of Lin Chen, and her smile became dignified, elegant, and graceful.

At this moment, she had transformed back into the national goddess who shone brightly on the red carpet.

However, even though Liu Shishi smiled like a flower and gently said goodnight to the audience in the live broadcast room.

The millions of ravenous netizens in the live broadcast room didn't buy it at all, and the bullet comment section was directly overturned by their resentment.

"Lin Chen, you unfilial son! Today, I must uphold justice and kill you, you cliffhanger dog, with my own hands!"

"Damn! Do you have any professional ethics left? Have you finished filling the plot hole for ghost blows out the light, and you're already digging a new one?!"

"My hands are cursed! Why did I click into this livestream in the middle of the night? Tonight, I'm going to have to stay up all night with the lights on again!"

"So you're just killing us without burying the bodies, huh! Teacher Lin, you are just too willful!"

"Unfilial son, consider this Daddy begging you! Can you do something human? Even if you don't fill the plot hole, just release a text version of ghost blows out the light, that would be fine too!"

"And those divine songs like exploring qingshui river, Sheng Man Man, and Sheng Pi Zi, why don't you record a studio version and release it!"

"In the past, traffic stars would kneel and beg fans to buy albums. This unfilial son is the opposite; he's forcing me to kneel and beg him to release songs!"

"Hahahaha, seeing the whole internet scolding Lin for his cliffhangers, I suddenly feel much better."

...

After turning off the live streaming equipment, Lin Chen casually switched off the bedroom ceiling light, preparing to sleep.

Tonight, he really could only "sleep" purely.

Although the live stream was off, they were recording the show outside, and besides the Divas Hit the Road Group, there were dozens of Production Team staff living in this villa.

God knows how the soundproofing of this house is.

If things got too heated and the noise was too loud, tomorrow the whole internet would be spreading collections of high-pitched sounds of Lin Chen having his way with three women at night.

Therefore, tonight, he could only wrong these three little demons and have them sleep a "plain sleep."

Lin Chen and the three women didn't feel too disappointed; after all, there would be plenty of time in the future, and once they were home, there would be plenty of time to mess around slowly.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

"Teacher Lin, are you asleep?"

Less than a minute after the lights were turned off, the bedroom door was suddenly knocked, and a female staff member's probing voice came from outside.

Lin Chen casually turned the bedside lamp back on.

Turning around, he was almost amused by his three wives' actions.

He saw that Tong Liya, Liu Shishi, and Guli Nazha were acting in surprisingly perfect unison.

The moment the light went on, the three of them "whooshed" and sat up from under the covers.

Their three pairs of beautiful eyes were wide open, staring fixedly at the bedroom door as if guarding against a thief, their pretty faces full of vigilance and defensiveness.

"Is it necessary, you guys? There are Film Crew people all outside, what's with these 'guarding against a mistress' looks?" Lin Chen shook his head, amused.

The three women kept their faces tense and didn't speak, just staring fixedly at the door.

Although Lin Chen's words made sense, they couldn't help but worry because their man's damn charm was just too much of a magnet for other women!

Not to mention anything else, just that little girl named Song Zuer on the first floor, her eyes were almost glued to Brother Lin, and she was single-mindedly trying to latch onto him.

Who knew what kind of person was knocking on the door outside? They had to be strictly vigilant!

Fortunately, it was indeed a familiar female director standing outside the door.

She held Lin Chen's private mobile phone and handed it over: "Teacher Lin, your phone has been ringing constantly just now, it seems like there is an urgent matter. I brought it to you. However, the director instructed that you must return the phone to the Production Team for safekeeping after you finish the call, please cooperate."

"No problem, please wait a couple of minutes."

Lin Chen took the phone and closed the bedroom door.

Walking to the bedside, he openly showed the phone screen to his three wives, who looked like geese with stretched-out necks.

He really had to show them; these three women's eyeballs were about to pop out.

Two words were flashing on the screen: Yang Mi.

Seeing that it was a call from the Empress, the three women's tense nerves instantly relaxed.

They were sisters, so that was fine.

Tong Liya yawned and lay back under the covers.

Liu Shishi had a restless personality, so she directly extended her slender, jade-like fingers, helped Lin Chen swipe to answer, and conveniently pressed the speakerphone button.

"Hey! Where did this vixen come from! What are you acting like a tease in the middle of the night, daring to call my Hubby! Confess, what do you want!" Liu Shishi deliberately pinched her voice and acted coquettishly.

"You damn girl, are you looking to die! You scared me!" Yang Mi's annoyed scolding came from the other end of the phone, "Stop messing around, where is Hubby?"

Liu Shishi pouted: "Why are you looking for my Hubby? You can just report to me, the second wife, if you have any business."

Yang Mi couldn't be bothered to bicker with her, her tone serious: "Get lost, I have serious business with you. Quickly give the phone to Hubby."

Lin Chen ruffled Liu Shishi's hair, picked up the phone, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, and turned off the speakerphone: "I'm here, what's up?"
