Early the next morning, Lin Fan was jolted awake by his phone ringing!

When Lin Fan woke up, the beauty who’d been beside him was already gone, leaving behind only a faintly fragrant, still-warm bed!

Lin Fan grabbed his phone and glanced at it, and to his surprise, the caller turned out to be Qin Si Xuan!

"This chick... how come she suddenly remembered to call me?"

Lin Fan waved his hand, grinning as he picked up, and teased, "Big celebrity wifey, what made you think of calling me? Missing me, huh?"

"Uh..."

He heard a clearly stunned noise from the other end of the line!

Lin Fan immediately realized this was absolutely not Qin Si Xuan’s voice, it was actually a man’s!

"Oh, shit!"

Lin Fan shot up from the bed in one smooth motion, making the bedframe creak loudly!

"Who are you?" Lin Fan frowned and asked!

"Mr. Lin, don’t get excited. I’m Director Li An!" the man on the other end said with a cheerful laugh.

"Director An?" Lin Fan froze for a second!

Then he thought of the flirty line he’d just said—turns out it had been to Director An—and Lin Fan instantly felt goosebumps all over. Damn, that was way too wrong!

Director An heard the awkwardness in Lin Fan’s tone and chuckled, "I don’t have your number, so I went to Sixuan. Once the call connected, I didn’t give you a heads-up first and caused this mix-up. Really sorry about that!"

"No big deal! As long as Director An doesn’t take it to heart, we’re good. So, how come you had time to call me today?" Lin Fan asked with an easy smile.

"Here’s the thing, the Oscars ceremony is about to kick off. The film ’Living with a Star’ that you and Miss Qin shot has been nominated for an Oscar. We’re going to attend the Oscars ceremony, and I’m wondering if Mr. Lin has time to come along?"

Director An asked very politely!

He knew perfectly well just how influential Lin Fan was in the country now, so he wouldn’t dare be careless!

"The Oscars, we got nominated?"

Lin Fan was also taken aback!

Back when he was abroad, he’d once bought two Oscars tickets just to impress a girl and went to watch the Oscars ceremony live. Seeing one star after another walk up on stage and claim that little golden statuette, Lin Fan had felt insanely jealous. He’d even thought to himself, when would he be able to get his hands on one of those little golden guys!

Never imagined that this wish was actually about to come true?

"Lin Fan, you still there?"

Just then, a woman’s melodious voice came from the other end!

Lin Fan recognized it instantly—that was Qin Si Xuan’s voice!

"I’m here!" Lin Fan replied.

"Director An asked me to check with you if you’ve got time. If you don’t, it’s totally fine!" Qin Si Xuan said vaguely, worried Lin Fan might think she was forcing him.

Lin Fan laughed and said, "A movie I shot with my own wife got an Oscar nomination, of course I’m going. Where are you now?"

"I just finished a concert in Hong Kong, so I’m in Hong Kong right now!" Qin Si Xuan said.

"Alright then! I’ll fly to Hong Kong to find you!"

Lin Fan pondered for a second, then lowered his voice and asked, "Has Director An left yet?"

"Director An had something to do, so he left first. It’s just me here now, what’s up?" Qin Si Xuan asked curiously.

"Damn it! I was all set to whisper something flirty to my wife, and it ended up being said to that old man Director An instead. Wifey, how can you just let anyone use your phone like that? This massive screw-up has your husband dying of embarrassment here. You better compensate me properly later!" Lin Fan put on a look like he’d been wronged to hell and back!

"Hehehe~"

Qin Si Xuan’s laughter floated over. She’d been right beside Director An when Lin Fan spoke earlier; of course she’d heard everything!

Qin Si Xuan giggled, "Just wait till you get here and see how I drain you dry. We haven’t seen each other in so long, this big superstar is definitely going to thoroughly test your ammo reserves!"

"You got it! Wait for me, wifey—your hubby’s on his way!" Lin Fan said with a wicked grin.

After that, Lin Fan and Qin Si Xuan traded a few more flirty lines, then hung up!

Lin Fan did a carp jump off the bed, went into the bathroom to wash up, and headed downstairs!

When he reached the ground floor, the Suicide Squad brothers were eating in the spacious dining room. From a distance, Lin Fan could already smell the alluring aroma of breakfast drifting over!

"You’re up!"

Wearing an apron and carrying a tray of delicious breakfast, Gu Qingcheng saw Lin Fan and gave him a dazzling smile!

"Boss! Morning!"

The Suicide Squad brothers saw Lin Fan and all stood up to greet him!

Nie Lei was stuffing a bun into his mouth as he mumbled around the food, "Boss, I did not expect sis-in-law’s cooking to be this good. If my tigress at home had even half her skills, I’d be satisfied!"

"Exactly, exactly! Sis-in-law’s food is insanely good. Boss, you’re really living the dream!" Nalan Qiankun said, grinning from ear to ear!

Lin Fan smirked smugly, "That’s the perk of having a wife. You guys aren’t getting any younger either—hurry up and find yourselves wives and settle down."

"Heh heh! I’d love to, but I’ve played around too much. When it comes to actually living a proper life, no woman wants to stick with me!" Fierce Lion said with a wry smile!

Hearing that, Lin Fan could only sigh!

Their identities were way too special and sensitive. If we’re talking about living a quiet, ordinary life, that’d have to wait until the world’s at peace. In times this chaotic, even if a woman is willing to be with you, you still can’t make her any real promises!

So most of the Suicide Squad brothers just fool around casually. Very few of them get married, have kids, and live a normal, mundane life!

Then Lin Fan quickly walked down the stairs and headed into the dining room!

"Boss! I’m full. You and sis-in-law go ahead and eat!"

Nie Lei suddenly stood up, then jabbed Nalan Qiankun in the side with his elbow!

"I’m full too! Boss, sis-in-law, you two take your time!" Nalan Qiankun said, his mouth stuffed so full he looked like a frog.

The others got the hint and all stood up to say they were full, then left the dining room in a hurry, practically sprinting back to their rooms, clearly trying to deliberately give Lin Fan and Gu Qingcheng some private couple time!

And that bastard Nie Lei even sneakily snatched the last bun on his way out. Lin Fan was pissed—damn it, all the buns his wife had made ended up in those little punks’ stomachs, and he hadn’t gotten a single one!

Once Lin Fan sat down, Gu Qingcheng placed a bowl of noodles in front of him and said with a gentle smile, "Try my cooking. This is a new recipe I just learned, so I don’t know if it suits your taste."

"Being able to eat a delicious breakfast made by my wife first thing in the morning is pure bliss. Just judging by how it looks, there’s no way it tastes bad!"

Lin Fan chuckled, picked up his chopsticks, lifted a few strands of noodles, and brought them to his mouth!

"Cough, cough..."

But as soon as he swallowed the noodles, he started coughing dryly, his throat feeling scratched raw. He grabbed the glass of water on the table and gulped down several big mouthfuls in a rush!

Seeing this, Gu Qingcheng asked anxiously, her face full of worry, "What’s wrong? Is the taste bad?"
