Chapter 222 Style of Handling Affairs
After dinner, Yan Zhixu drove back to Qinglan Bay.
The two remained somewhat silent throughout the journey.
Yan Zhixu was not a talkative person, so it was fine for him not to speak. But Liang Liangwei was an extroverted person, so it was strange for her to remain silent for a long time.
He glanced over when the road was clear and saw the woman typing on her phone, seemingly replying to a message.
"Who have you been in contact with for so long?" he asked casually.
After Liang Liangwei finished editing and sending the message, she said, "A few friends, although yesterday's video hasn't been online for long, what's done is done, and some friends still know about it. They've been sending messages from time to time these past two days to check on the situation, and I'm trying to reassure them."
Yan Zhixu raised an eyebrow: "You're the one comforting me? Shouldn't they be the ones comforting you?"
Liang Liangwei leaned her head back in her chair and looked at him with a smile: "That's true, actually I'm calmer than them."
She received many messages of concern from friends. Su Xiaorong and Gao Nan had asked her about it at the company today, as well as some familiar clients, university classmates, alumni, and friends in the entertainment industry such as Gu Cheng. She sent some group messages to thank them for their concern and to let them know she was alright, while replying to those she was closer to individually.
The person who just replied was Gu Cheng, and we made an appointment to meet for dinner in a few days.
She then asked, "When do you plan to have Le Pei'er post on Weibo?"
Yan Zhixu: "Her PR team has already sent over the copy, and I told her to post it at 8 a.m. tomorrow."
8 o'clock is the start of a busy day, and also the time when netizens are most focused on the internet.
Liang Liangwei: "Your plane took off around 9 o'clock..."
Yan Zhixu: "Let it brew for now. Once I'm on the ground, I'll take immediate action."
Liang Liangwei tilted her head: "It'll be another 15 hours on the plane."
Yan Zhixu: "Can we wait?"
Liang Liangwei curled her lips and said, "Should I stay at home and not go out to avoid being recognized and having rotten eggs thrown at me?"
Yan Zhixu chuckled: "It's not that bad, but if you're scared, you can stay with me."
Liang Liangwei laughed and said, "That's too cowardly, not my style."
Yan Zhixu knew that she wasn't the type to run away from problems, so she was just joking.
"Shall I send you a bodyguard?"
Liang Liangwei: "Isn't that a bit of an exaggeration?"
Yan Zhixu: "Just in case."
As if struck by a thought, Liang Liangwei suddenly sat up straight and looked around the car: "Do you have bodyguards secretly following you when you travel?"
Yan Zhixu chuckled: "I might need it when I'm abroad, but I don't really need it in China. After all, I'm not well-known in China, and the public security here is pretty good."
Liang Liangwei: "Then where did you get bodyguards to send me?"
Yan Zhixu: "Please."
Liang Liangwei's eyes darted around, and she leaned back in her chair: "Please? I don't need your help, I can do it myself~"
Yan Zhixu glanced at her, smiled, and didn't say anything, only saying, "Please ask someone of a higher rank."
Liang Liangwei stared at him quietly for a few seconds before looking away, suppressing a hint of doubt in her heart.
How did he know she could hire high-level bodyguards?
"So what are you going to do about it?"
Yan Zhixu smiled and said, "Debunking fakes."
The car drove into the underground parking garage of Qinglan Bay, and the two got out and closed the car door.
Yan Zhixu said, "I'll go to the supermarket to buy you some fruit. Why don't you go upstairs first?"
Liang Liangwei slung her bag over her shoulder: "Let's go together, I'll also browse the supermarket here."
Yan Zhixu smiled and said, "Okay."
The two walked towards the supermarket, which was located within the residential complex and only a few minutes away. The supermarket sold a variety of daily necessities, including high-end luxury items and many imported goods, which were exclusively available to the wealthy and influential residents of the complex.
Yan Zhixu tilted his head and asked his girlfriend, "Is there anything you want to buy? What kind of fruit would you like to eat?"
Liang Liangwei glanced around the supermarket and said, "Actually, there's nothing I want to buy. Could you buy me some strawberries? I'm only staying one night, so I won't eat too many."
Yan Zhixu: "Okay."
He walked toward the fruit section, with Liang Liangwei following behind. The two of them picked out strawberries, cherries, and avocados.
Liang Liangwei: "Aunt Zhang said you like grapes and cherries. Besides these two, what other fruits do you like to eat?"
Yan Zhixu glanced to the side and walked over.
Liang Liangwei looked in the direction of the peach and was somewhat surprised. She thought that girls would prefer peaches, which are juicy and soft, so she didn't expect him to like them too.
Yan Zhixu stood in front of the peach display case, picked up a peach, weighed it in his hand, turned it around, but did not immediately put it in a bag.
Liang Liangwei followed him and found him staring blankly at the peaches...
Liang Liangwei blinked and said, "If you think you're leaving tomorrow and can't finish buying too much, you don't have to buy any. I'm fine with strawberries."
Yan Zhixu snapped out of her reverie, smiled, and waved at her: "What about you? Do you like to eat it?"
Liang Liangwei: "I like it too, but that's enough, unless you want to eat it."
Yan Zhixu put the peach back: "I'll buy it next time."
Liang Liangwei noticed that his expression was a little strange, but after the man put down the peaches, he pushed the cart away. She followed his gaze for two seconds and then caught up with him.
When he got to the cashier, he took out a few boxes of fruit, scanned them, and then took a box of T from the small shelf next to him and placed it next to the fruit as if nothing had happened.
Liang Liangwei saw it and secretly blushed.
Back in the suite, Yan Zhixu put the fruit in the kitchen refrigerator.
Liang Liangwei: "I'm going upstairs to take a shower first."
Yan Zhixu closed the refrigerator door: "Wait a minute."
Liang Liangwei turned around on the stairs: "What?"
Yan Zhixu came out of the kitchen, took her hand and led her upstairs: "Come with me to the study first."
Liang Liangwei asked, puzzled, "What's in the study?"
Yan Zhixu: "I bought you some things."
Liang Liangwei was very curious, but since it was only a few steps away, she stopped asking and followed him to the study.
Someone entered the study, and the lights and heating turned on automatically. Liang Liangwei glanced around and quickly noticed that there was a new set of desks and chairs in the study.
His study was spacious, so there was no problem adding an extra set of desks and chairs. The large solid wood desks and chairs were clearly made of premium materials, pure black, and had a very high-quality feel. They were from the same system as his set.
The two sets of tables and chairs are arranged in an L-shape, close together yet with independent spaces, which is the kind of layout she likes.
Liang Liangwei's eyes lit up as she immediately recognized it as an extremely sought-after limited edition from a brand.
She strode forward and gently stroked the table. The surface beneath her palm had an excellent texture, and she couldn't help but ask, "When was this prepared?"
Looking at the undisguised joy on her face, the man softened his expression and said, "Last time you mentioned wanting to borrow my study to work, but there wasn't enough space, so I had someone prepare a set, which arrived yesterday. Do you like it?"
Liang Liangwei nodded: "I like it."
Yan Zhixu chuckled lightly: "From now on, you can work with me in the study."
Liang Liangwei looked up at him: "Aren't you afraid I'll disturb your work?"
Yan Zhixu looked back at her and said softly, "No."
I won't be bothered by her, or rather, I'd be happy to have her by my side while I'm working.
