Chapter 4, The gentle breeze is inherently affectionate

This sweet call instead pricked her, causing her to let go of her hand in shock, her tone extremely serious, "Don't call me mom, I am not your mom. I only have one son, named Wei Guangyin"

Indeed, she let out a soft laugh, her mood brightening as if the mask she had been wearing could finally be removed. She pulled over the cup she had previously found distasteful, warming it in her hands, and continued, "However, you probably didn't come today just to watch the show? Don't probe any further; your beloved has not returned."

Gu Yuanyuan stared at me in a daze, as if she had fallen from one trap into another. Finally, she lowered her gaze, released my hand, and sighed as she patted my shoulder.

I suppose, not long ago, the gossip stirred up quite a storm, so it is no wonder that he looks down on me.

I still remember someone whispering in my ear, "Come back to your senses." By the time I regained my composure, I had already left the private room, and Gu Yuanyuan had left with me.

When I was reported with a face flushed from the heat, the first call I received was from the editor, who sighed softly, "I never expected that one day you would become famous not for writing books, but for keeping a beauty hidden in a golden house... Oh, being hidden.

I lazily propped up my chin, blinked, and smiled at her, but the smile did not reach my bones. "Oh, it's nothing, just passing by to see how pathetic someone without support can be."

It is unknown which female voice murmured softly among the crowd, but she underestimated her own volume, and in an instant, the rumors spread like a plague, swirling and scattering everywhere

The broadcast welcomed the sound of music, a familiar voice faded away, and Wei Guangyin's fingers on the steering wheel curled slightly.

The editor-in-chief is a man in his early forties. It is said that in his youth, he was a talented figure in the industry, but unfortunately, during that era, the publishing industry was not as prosperous, and he did not encounter a patron who recognized his talents. As a result, millions of words remained buried in a box. Although the editor-in-chief was born into a difficult situation, he did not lose heart. He persistently sought connections through his classmates to enter the publishing industry, and he has managed to reach his current position, which can be considered a tale of perseverance and resilience

It is more impressive to reject someone, would you like to give it a try

Can Liu Wei fly? I can no longer be certain, for that person is slowly approaching me. My fingers inexplicably loosened, and my cherished little vault clattered to the ground. The headlights are still on, blinding me, and I can only blink, then blink again, to prove that the increasingly closer shadow is not an illusion.

I roughly understand what Wei Yan admired about her during his lifetime. Besides her physique and appearance that show no signs of being over forty, she also possesses exceptional intellect. Such intellect is suitable for the business world and is also fitting for any man of great ambition and talent

Time seemed to rewind to a cold winter night, as he carefully fastened the buttons of my open coat one by one. At that moment, if I had dared to throw myself into his embrace, I wonder what today would look like

Having navigated the realm of verbal sparring for many years, I often find that others can mention him and effortlessly gain the upper hand, which can occasionally be quite frustrating

I didn't expect Assistant Wei to look so handsome even when angry

Thank you for accompanying me

My goodness, are young girls now so opinionated? Are they so understanding? Are they so chivalrous? Socialism is truly good! The status of the country and its people is high! Imperialism is fleeing with its tail between its legs! ... Resolutely ...

Please go rest over there

Lightning, please strike.

I ran away from the hospital and went straight to the café across from the Wei's Building, sitting by the window

Noticing that he had awakened, he chuckled lightly for a moment, "Twelve years ago, on that night, I took the initiative to tell you my name. Time, Wei Guangyin."

Well done

In front of the striking photograph of Wei Yan, the lawyer used a small knife to cut open those invaluable sheets of paper. In an instant, not only the Wei family but also the onlookers became agitated. I too was stirred, as Liu Dazhuang's coat was quite thick; I felt cold and put it on, only to feel hot again. Gradually, as the sun rose higher, it mercilessly intensified the heat.

Suddenly, he turned his head to look over, his eyes shimmering like the stars above. I wanted to pry into his thoughts, but only encountered a veil of mist.

He agreed, his expression calm, but the first thing he said was not a greeting, only an apology, "I am afraid I must go back on my word." His demeanor was sorrowful.

Wei Yan encountered an incident. As the only son, there are numerous matters awaiting his attention. I feigned generosity and declined, saying, "No need! It's already at the community entrance, just a matter of a few minutes."

... ...

On a bright sunny day, a few words from Sheng Sha made me feel a chill. But I am not foolish; I understand that she spoke every word with sincerity

As he spoke, the man straightened up, turning his profile towards me, and a fleeting cold expression passed over his face

This sound, it was his call, I was momentarily taken aback, "Hmm?"

What is the matter?

The rented cottage is nearby, and the two of them are bickering as they walk me back. The spring breeze at night is even more intoxicating than during the day. Even when recalling the chaotic matters, it feels like nothing significant. Indeed, there is no problem in the world that cannot be resolved with a hot pot meal. If there is, then it takes two meals.

That woman would not be angered by words; if she were afraid of idle gossip, we would not be sitting here today in such a capacity.

For a moment, I found myself at a loss for words. She understood without needing further explanation, glanced at her watch, and stood up to leave. Just as she reached the door, she suddenly spoke: "As for time, you might as well give up on that hope; there can be no conclusion for you. Alas, the words from eight hundred years ago are still being repeated today, which is truly disheartening. What use is it that you resemble me? You lack the ability to assess the situation at all."

Having finished speaking, I couldn't help but grip the edge of the table harder, "Even if that man is dead, you still refuse to acknowledge me?"

She glanced back with a smile, with certainty

The unexpected incident involving Wei Yan came too suddenly, leaving everyone unprepared, with a deep-seated frustration that was hard to express, especially among Wei Yan's followers during his lifetime. As soon as the slap echoed, others chimed in, "Indeed, no matter how good the relationship, shouldn't we take a look at the current situation?"

At the moment of turning back, he silently curled his lips at me in the spring light, making one feel a trace of warmth even amidst the cold, icy gravestones

As time went by, Wei Guangyin was criticized and condemned by many. I finally understood how lonely that boy, who humbly asked for a shoulder to lean on, truly was

I: "The key point is, I really cannot find it"

The gentle breeze is inherently affectionate, yet how can one avoid the emotions that linger like the willows in spring, as there is no choice but to proceed to the next destination

Shengshan ... ...

If Wei Guangyin had once shown me some special consideration out of childhood friendship and attempted to change, then the sudden death of Wei Yan has already reawakened his protective shell. He has withdrawn into his shell, exposing his thorns, trying to maximize the harm to others in an effort to divert the external gaze of pity.

She pulled her sunglasses and hat down low, withdrew, and walked inside. I quickly got up and went to the reserved private room

Time has been so greatly pricked and agitated, it surely needs comfort! At this moment, your offensive action brings the long-held wish within reach!

When this fantasy was expressed, Sheng Shan closed his mouth but ultimately couldn't hold back: "Cheng Gaigai, do you really understand him? Why do I feel that what you understand is the imagined version of him?"

I smirked slightly, "See, you have weaknesses too. Is Zhou Yin really a good person? Not at all. If he were kind, he wouldn't have gone to the hospital specifically to tell you in person that he was going to marry another woman. However, as soon as he reaches out, no matter how resolute you are, you will become as soft as a gentle touch."

The trees standing tall at both ends of the community have already taken on a touch of green. A young man, standing amidst the lush greenery, spoke to me in an almost sorrowful tone, "I must go back on my word, I need to change that. Because I am in urgent need of a shoulder to lean on"

If you don't mind, I will kill you

At the very moment I slammed my hand on the table, my knight, my editor, Gu Yuanyuan, was even quicker to flip the table over

At this moment, if Gu Yuanyuan knew that I was singing in my heart, she would probably personally overturn me, so I could only let her take the wine cup and resolutely stand shoulder to shoulder with her in battle

How can I lie in front of an old friend? I might as well be honest and admit, "Actually, I have considered it. I thought, since the book has already been published and is in the hands of readers, no matter how capable he is, can he possibly retrieve each copy? Therefore, I am not afraid of offending him"

However, a rebuttal is still necessary. "Oh? So the rules of the Jianghu set by Editor He are meant to make things difficult for newcomers? Or perhaps, because you never encountered such expensive hands when you were young and impetuous, you have spent twenty years in a daze without achieving anything, leading to envy and jealousy?"

My apprehension stands in stark contrast to her cheerful demeanor, "Aren't you afraid that the subsequent book release will be affected?"

Is it an illusion? This girl seems like an old acquaintance

But at that time, I also hated you. You clearly promised not to let anyone else take me away, so why couldn't you do it? After finally meeting again, you said you would always be by my side, so why did you go back on your word?

This community was found with the help of Zhou Ying. Although the area is small, it is fully equipped and has a high safety factor. Unfortunately, the two streetlights at the main entrance have recently broken, making the headlights of vehicles particularly noticeable

What is so strange? Wasn't Chairman Wei the same in his youth? Otherwise, would there be the current Qi Yueying? Loyalty weighs a thousand pounds, but it cannot compare to a mere four ounces of the chest.

There is no need for him to scold; in retrospect, I also wish I could self-destruct on the spot. Yet, just seeing the sadness in his eyes makes all my previously chaotic thoughts vanish without a trace. He lowered his gaze and said he wanted a shoulder, so I offered him mine, regardless of how much weight this shoulder could bear

The situation was completely out of control, the editor-in-chief's hypocritical facade was torn away, and with a heavy hand on the wine glass, he spoke with a hint of anger, "Gu Yuanyuan, you have been with the company for at least six months, yet you still handle things so clumsily. I really don't know how you managed during your internship. I will have to ask the HR department about this."

I carefully scrutinized him, moving closer until I caught a whiff of the unique herbal fragrance emanating from him. Taking a deep breath, I noticed from the corner of my eye that his brow suddenly furrowed. He raised his right hand and, almost gently, began to remove the stray leaves from the top of my head one by one

On that day, as soon as the broadcast station's event concluded, the chief editor of the publishing house called to organize a dinner, inviting the host, the planners, and my editor among others

As the words fell, the atmosphere became exceedingly awkward

Moreover, on the night of our reunion, you apologized to me, saying that you could not fulfill the promises you made and that you felt very indebted. But... you probably do not know how long I have been looking forward to this moment.

You do not know how long I have waited for such an opportunity to express my innermost thoughts and feelings

Gu Yuanyuan is not very scheming, jokingly said: "The financial backer who refuses to admit it is quite handsome."

Did I not inform you? She is allergic to alcohol and cannot drink

The studio was filled with laughter when, at that moment, another hotline call came in. The voice was rough but sounded quite deliberate. He identified himself as the young man who had thrown money at the girl and expressed his gratitude: "As soon as I left the police station, I went to the hospital to apologize to the girl. To my surprise, after some back and forth, we truly fell in love and are about to get married!"

Since our numerous verbal exchanges online, filled with both love and conflict, I had long known that the other party was a young girl. However, I did not expect her to be even younger than I am! With a pair of smiling eyes and shallow dimples, her name is also quite adorable, Gu Yuanyuan

Not long after, I actually sang in public. At the arrangement of the publisher, I was invited to participate in a radio program, and during the interactive segment, I reluctantly hummed a few lines, only to lose followers when I returned.

She couldn't even be bothered to spend time exchanging words with me and turned to leave

In an instant, Liu Dazhuang discarded his bank card, reacting even faster than I did. He bounced over like a mischievous monkey and gave the young man a hug, saying, "You finally decided to come back?!" After recalling the reason for his return to Bincheng, his expression turned somewhat awkward. Struggling to find the right words of comfort, he could only turn around and point at me, saying, "If you don't show up soon, she will sign up for 'If You Are the One,' after all, few can afford to support a girl with such a hearty appetite."

The reason for our confrontation was that the publisher's editor called me to inquire whether my manuscript payment had been received. I paid little attention to it, merely nodding as if pecking at rice. The speaker was indifferent, but the listener was attentive. After hanging up the phone, I noticed Liu Dazhuang staring at me with a dark expression, ready to condemn me

It was a muddy and chaotic night, and we were still young, trapped in the valley by a suddenly passing hurricane. He had a high fever, collapsing in my equally frail arms, mumbling not to return to the Wei family. Had I known that the separation would bring endless longing and pain, I would have crawled up from the bottom of the valley, even if it meant dying once more, to block his way home.

Of course, I would not be foolish enough to tell Liu Dazhuang about this detail. For Wei Guangyin, it was merely a ceremonial kiss of gratitude

The cause was the host's question about whether any bizarre or funny incidents had occurred during the creative process. I recalled a male fan who privately messaged me on Weibo, saying that it was because he read my novel that he learned a skill for flirting with girls, which ultimately led him to be taken to the police station for a thorough education.

A cacophony of chatter continued to swirl around me, the atmosphere growing even more intense than the flames. However, Wei Guangyin, stubborn as ever, took the opposite approach and, in front of everyone, pressed me with the question: "Would you prefer to rest by yourself, or shall I accompany you?" It was as if I had become his most pressing concern; he could not find peace until he resolved my situation, ensuring that I would make the front page headlines the next day.

I actually have four taels on my chest, thanks to her whole family

After a pause, he continued.

The red light had been on for a long time, long enough for the girl in the passenger seat to poke his arm and ask, "What are you thinking about?" The girl had an exquisite makeup, clearly someone who had grown up in a honey pot. The young man momentarily lost his focus, reaching out to smooth the girl's loose hair at her temples, causing her to blush deeply, yet another indistinct face flashed through his mind.

The girl who pulled me up from the valley, who waited for my downfall, granted me a surname, yet pushed me back into the abyss. She is Liu Dazhuang's long-cherished yet unattainable nominal sister. She met Wei Guangyin in the United States, fell in love with him at first sight, and even came to his rescue. In gratitude for her life-saving act, Wei Guangyin agreed to date her

However, the entire live broadcast is not without its merits

On a cool night, in the nearby residential building, a child practicing the piano plays Chopin. We sit quietly on a garden bench listening, our heads shaded by the trunk of an unknown large tree, reminiscent of the swing set in front of the Misty Valley forest

The person whom everyone has chosen to remain silent about has unexpectedly been forcefully brought to light at this moment

At critical moments, the mobile phone ringtone is sure to ring

Returning to that night, Wei Guangyin, taking advantage of his height, effortlessly brushed away the fallen leaves from above my head. I called out to him with a tone of curiosity, "Guangyin?"

On that day, March finally resembled March, and I was only wearing a thin white silk long-sleeve shirt. However, the temperature in the countryside remained lower than that in the city. Seeing me shiver in the wind on the mountaintop, Liu Dazhuang, who always boasted of being a qualified childhood friend, jumped out and unceremoniously draped his coat over my shoulders

The well-mannered lady said that she knows where there is an authentic Chongqing hot pot, "Many locals in Binhai City cannot find it." As it turns out, the restaurant she mentioned is located near the small house where I am renting.

Originally, I wanted to meet in another place, but she said that reporters are currently all over the city trying to catch members of the Wei family, and a place that was just revealed ten minutes ago is actually safer

Before long, the woman was escorted out by bodyguards and reporters, her previously vibrant attire replaced by a plain white outfit. Amidst the incessant questioning, she bent down and entered the RV, which then drove off for quite a distance. Once the reporters dispersed, the same vehicle stealthily returned to its original spot, stopping in front of the café, revealing a pair of well-proportioned and smooth calves

At that time, he spoke of fulfillment. Now, he has reappeared. What is important is, have I ever regretted it?

Looking up, the smile at the corners of the middle-aged man's eyes still lingered, his tone ambiguous yet seemingly sincere. However, those present were as clear as a mirror, clearly seeking fault, and for a moment, there was complete silence.

Unfortunately, no one told me that the funerals of the upper class and the * pictorial * society are not funerals at all, but rather a lengthy property division ceremony

After having eaten and drunk to our fill, Liu Dazhuang and I, as usual, engaged in a nonsensical conversation. The good lady had an exceptionally peculiar sense of humor, and just because of these two sentences, she was actually doubled over in laughter, squatting by the bushes. I looked at her with a puzzled expression, and so did Liu Dazhuang

To vent one's frustrations on others over personal matters may inadvertently jeopardize Gu Yuanyuan's livelihood. I boldly grabbed the wine cup, intending to drink, but it was snatched away by Gu Yuanyuan out of nowhere

Editor He, as a novice writer, I am not worthy of your repeated kindness. Instead, let me offer you tea in place of wine

In a few days, I will be discharged from the hospital, and Liu Dazhuang has invited me to a hot pot meal to celebrate, bringing along the lovely Shunv as well

What is there to be afraid of! If it comes to it, we can always switch to another publisher

I choked up, watching him unknowingly change to a look of relief. "It was only later that I realized, in the face of a predetermined fate, we are all too insignificant. You cannot stop me from leaving, nor can you follow me to the ends of the earth, and I..."

After the event, Liu Dazhuang rushed over to gossip about the astonishing developments of that night.

Liu Dazhuang was very perceptive, leaving behind the phrase "Let's talk later" as he quietly took the infatuated young lady away. In the words of the young girl later, "Sister Cheng, seeing him, I finally understand why you can remain indifferent in the presence of someone like President Ye."

The incandescent light bulb was thrust into the grass, lingering for a long time without extinguishing, covering my eyelids and causing my eye sockets to swell. I struggled to rise from the greenery while firmly holding onto my bank card, gazing towards the source of light. In a moment, a person in the driver's seat of a white sedan opened the door and stepped out, standing in the gentle breeze, tilting the corner of their mouth in our direction.

Seeing my heart filled with emotions, Sheng Shan stretched out her hand, attempting to embrace me, but the next moment, she heard me ask, "Isn't it true that good-looking people like Zhou Yin are all scoundrels?" Her arm, suspended in mid-air, froze, and her face twisted in anger.

By then, the entrance of the community was already in sight. During the tussle between Liu Dazhuang and me, we both stumbled and fell into the greenbelt at the entrance. The good lady hesitated, unsure of whom to assist, until a beam of headlights approached from a distance

That person let out a genuine snort, the disdain in their eyes unmasked and overflowing. "Stop pretending to be so noble. How many times do you think Miss Cheng has climbed over hands more expensive than mine? Otherwise, do you really think that just because you post some sentimental words on a small website, our publishing house would take notice? Since we are all in this world together, I expect you to abide by the rules of the game, is that too much to ask?"

Ah, I shrugged my shoulders and said, "What will you do if he and I have a good ending?"

The enemy does not move, and I do not move. I suppress the churn of disgust within my heart and once again raise a smile, "Isn't this your excellent gene, Mom?"

The reasoning is valid, but she does not care about the truth of it. With a mysterious smile, she says, "This is not important; what matters is that because of this news, the newly published novel has sold out, darling!"

Although I was in Bincheng, it was the first time I met the editor

Even if it is not, it is not as I imagined it to be... even... it is somewhat frivolous. This time he has returned, and there is something different from before, I can feel it, which makes me anxious

He advised

Once, in front of a lush and enchanting valley forest, I exerted all my strength to push away his hand

His words carry deeper meaning, implying that when my family approached me, there were unseen forces manipulating the situation behind the scenes

She is certainly not foolish; the foolish one is me. At the first moment I received the news, I actually fantasized that she would feel a twinge of sadness, fearing that she might not be able to hold on, and thought at least an outsider could talk to her. Looking back now, it was truly unnecessary. Her wealth and her status are what support her. As long as these things remain, she will never fall.

I was filled with frustration and sarcastically remarked, "Forget it, if I were to have a daughter as heartless as you, I would surely strangle her."

Ye Shenxun? Impossible, he hated me to the core at that time. Wei Guangyin? Also not possible, he is not even in the country. Here we go again with the guessing game that I dislike the most; what to do if my brain capacity is insufficient

After that incident, I can no longer indulge in even a little chili, and I keep a respectful distance from alcohol. Before the appointment, I requested to abstain from drinking, and I felt relieved only after it was agreed upon. Clearly, this verbal commitment did not successfully reach the editor-in-chief's ears.

Compared to Ye Shenxun, he instills in me a greater sense of fear

I felt my heart racing, suddenly a cooler breeze brushed against my cheek. In a panic, I looked up and just caught a glimpse of a hint of mischievous allure flickering in his eyes

I was so angry that I could hardly speak, "Don't others know, and you don't? As lazy as I am, if I were truly hidden, what book would I be writing?"

"How could it be a disgrace? Others are envious and can't wait; losing a husband in middle age, who knows how much of the inheritance will be divided?"

Comrade Cheng Gaigai. Initially, I thought you were stingy because you lacked money. Now, I realize that you have money, yet you are still miserly!

The phrase "flipping the table" is not an exaggeration, but a true expression. She stood up too excitedly and knocked over the tall wine glass filled with red wine; the glass tilted and knocked over mine as well. A few crisp sounds were heard, and the red liquid splashed out, staining the white tablecloth, causing the planners and hosts at the broadcasting station to hurriedly avoid it.

Her demeanor is even more vigorous than mine, and when she gets angry, her two short, flat eyebrows look exceptionally cute. "Alcohol allergies are no joke; my father once got poisoned from drinking and had to go to the hospital, nearly not making it out. She is someone I brought here with my own hands, and I want to see her leave unscathed with my own eyes"

Aren't you afraid of being dismissed

I disapprovingly pursed my lips and said, "Yes, there are, China Mobile and China Unicom."

This act of self-sacrifice, if not for love, can only be attributed to selfishness. Cheng Gaigai, have you ever thought about it? He clearly does not love her, yet to find peace of mind, he creates illusions and hopes for her. Compared to those who firmly refuse from the very beginning, who is truly more cruel? However, in his view, there is simply no awareness. How could a person born to hurt others possess awareness? Therefore, it is not that I dislike Wei Guangyin, Gaigai, it is that I am afraid. Only he makes me uncertain about what he is capable of doing.

After listening for a long time, I finally deduced from the heavy nasal tone that he was Liu Dazhuang, who had specially come to warm up the atmosphere for me. Overcome with emotion, I blurted out, "Congratulations! With my book in hand, the world is yours!"

Wei Yan's funeral was quite low-key, yet those who attended were all prominent figures, except for Liu Dazhuang and myself

I do not agree, "I paid in advance, I took out my wallet, but you said, for the dignity of the nouveau riche's son, this bill must be paid by you!"

In high school, she warned me, saying that throughout the years, countless girls have been hurt by Wei Guangyin, and he never even blinked. "In your heart, he must be that kind of pure-hearted youth who hasn't experienced love even in his twenties. I’m truly sorry to shatter your youthful dream, but if he were really like that, how could there be the Cheng Suiwan incident"

Seeing me lost in thought, she, without knowing when, set down her porcelain cup, and with a few delicate fingers, lifted my chin towards the table, seemingly sighing, "I must admit, sometimes when I see you, it truly feels like looking in the mirror from my younger days"

In fact, I have considered this as well. I thought to myself, since the company belongs to my father, no matter how capable he is, can he really dismiss me? Alas, it is all my fault for being too low-key; no one pays attention to me, this novice editor.

Wei Guangyin glanced at the caller ID, hung up the phone with a calm demeanor, and said he would take me home

I thought you didn't have any money!

I ... ? ... isn't it just that I didn't share the manuscript fee with him! ? Here, take it all! Let's see if you can fly!

Since meeting the good lady, he seems to have found someone he can intellectually dominate. Although sometimes I really want to remind him that the silly girl is just infatuated with love. Never forget, she is a high achiever who graduated from the nursing program at the University of California. If she ever gets truly upset, she could easily give you a few injections, and you wouldn't even know where it hurts.

After a two-year absence, he appears thinner, as if a gust of wind could blow him away. Other changes are evident as well; the gaze of others has grown increasingly distant, as if there is a layer of mist, and behind that mist lies the truest essence.

She showed no sense of panic about being dismissed; instead, she freely grasped my hand and high-fived me, saying, "Jesus! Do you know how long I've wanted to greet his whole family?! Anyone who sees someone with a bit of talent and has the chance feels psychologically unbalanced, as if the world owes them a Nobel Prize!"

In this rare moment of tranquility, Wei Guangyin's head gently rested on my shoulder. Due to his height, maintaining this position was extremely uncomfortable for him, but by the time I mustered the courage to ask him if he needed me to sit up straighter, he had already fallen asleep

What is there to be afraid of! At worst, I can change jobs

Indeed, the party not only did not offer any defense, but instead held the umbrella steadily, with a dreamy smile, stating, "The number of shares is merely a figure to me; I have never participated in any operations or business of the company, and I cannot get involved in a short period of time. If there is truly any important matter, Aunt Yue will handle it on my behalf."

I quietly huddled next to the editor eating vegetables, pretending not to have heard his words, while casually recommending a particular dish that tasted especially great, until suddenly a glass of wine appeared in mid-air

Suddenly, I feel a sense of sadness. The talent I take pride in must go through such vulgar hype to be recognized

As expected, I am in the wind, disordered.

As expected, the good lady smiled again. In the meantime, Liu Dazhuang and I exchanged verbal sparring back and forth. In the end, a disagreement led to a physical altercation.

I originally intended to respond, and I would indeed be willing to have such a relationship with Wei Guangyin, but the other party is unwilling! Unexpectedly, the editor-in-chief preempted me, with every word being a gem, "Is there some incriminating evidence in your hands? Is that why you have to help you make the headlines?"

Could it be that he noticed the distress caused to me by his actions on the day at the cemetery, and thus deliberately diverted the media's attention to restore my peaceful life

The wheat hanging in front casts a small shadow, into which I bury myself. After a long while, I speak: "The boy I encountered is more clear and bright than the characters I have penned. Unfortunately, he is unaware of it. Recently, he has suffered the pain of eternal separation, feeling that no one understands him. I want to tell him that everyone will die. For those who are alive, not letting those who have left worry is the best way to mourn."

It is not that Ye Shenxun is particularly unattractive; it is simply that young girls tend to favor male protagonists in novels who appear aloof yet are deeply affectionate. Wei Guangyin just happens to fit the mold of such a male lead. As for Ye Shenxun, while he is indeed good-looking, he always wears a stern expression, making it difficult for others to entertain any excessive fantasies, let alone experience moments of warmth and tenderness. Moreover, he is constantly thinking about dismissing her, which does not reflect well on his role as a domineering CEO

If you don't believe it, give it a try

Yes, I have evaded this before; he should bear a significant amount of responsibility for that nightmarish past. I attribute everything to a series of unfortunate events, yet all the mistakes originated from him. Just like in our senior year, he used a booklet to cause someone to be expelled. During the summer after graduation, he purchased the land from the owner of the snake factory, ruthlessly eliminating all opposition, forcing the other party to kneel in public, left with no way out. ... Perhaps there are even more details that I have yet to notice ... During the summer after graduation, he purchased the land from the owner of the snake factory, ruthlessly eliminating all opposition, forcing the other party to kneel in public, left with no way out. ... Perhaps there are even more details that I have yet to notice ...

Do I have any money! What does it matter with whom I treat?!

Time

I have forgotten how long it has been, a gust of wind blows by, as if carrying a fragrance, the young man's eyelashes flutter, and I suddenly recall that night of farewell in tranquility

When a person who has always been strong and restrained collapses before me, my reason is shattered into a bloody mess

Oh, could it be that... there is something happening?

I wanted to say something when a middle-aged man's voice came from the front, slightly dissatisfied, "As the esteemed young master of the Wei family, how can you treat the matter of equity distribution so frivolously, not even taking the time to listen to a will seriously?" It was only later that I learned he was one of the shareholders of the Wei family, a founding elder who had once followed Wei Yan in establishing the kingdom.

On that day, at the end of the interview, the host asked, "Many of the protagonists in your writings are young boys. Have you ever encountered such boys in real life, who are like the gentle breeze and bright moon?"

The lawyer in front was still articulately announcing the deceased's last wishes. I felt dizzy from the heat, my feet swayed slightly, and I could no longer bear it, preparing to take off my coat. Suddenly, an umbrella appeared above my head, and turning to the side, I saw Wei Guangyin in plain clothes, his handsome face calm and unadorned.

Liu Dazhuang: "What is the focus?"

Liu Dazhuang was furious and insisted that I treat him to a late-night snack before he would relent, resembling a fierce tiger stalking its prey, approaching the weak me... The bank card in my pocket seemed to leap out. In order to defend the earnings I had painstakingly earned while typing away on my sickbed, I had no choice but to fight him to the end.

Liu Dazhuang was left speechless and silently hung up the phone three seconds later. At that moment, I finally realized that this was not the usual playful banter over the phone, but a live broadcast. Thus, the millions of residents in Bincheng learned of an author named Cheng Gaigai, whose level of narcissism had reached an extraordinary height, beyond any remedy.

I awkwardly laughed, "Actually, it was just a casual remark that the most direct and effective way to flirt with a girl is to stun her with money. As a result, that comrade exchanged three thousand yuan in cash for coins and blocked the entrance of the girls' dormitory, effectively stunning the girl..."

Wei Guangyin, you may leave now, do not return. Go to a place where I cannot find you. Go to a distance that even if I regret it, I cannot reach you.

Why be so delicate? Others may indulge you, but we certainly will not

The good lady seems to share my feelings; she links one of her slender arms with mine, while the other is reluctantly held by classmate Liu Wei. With excessive joy, she says, "Can we always be like this?" Before I have a chance to retort, Liu Dazhuang speaks up first, "Always? Who would be by your side forever?"

What skills?

Seeing the wine glass standing there ominously, Gu Yuanyuan suddenly remembered and immediately put down her chopsticks, raising her hand to the leader with righteous indignation: "I forgot to tell you, I have an allergy to alcohol, could I have a drink instead?" As she spoke, she was about to pour me some fresh orange juice, but was stopped.

He paused for a moment, took off the ash-gray scarf, and methodically draped it over my empty neck, still carrying his unique warmth. "Send me a message when you get home," his voice was cool.

But upon reflection, never mind, I am quite pleased that he was pricked

Sheng Shan made a gesture to stop me, saying she was afraid I would continue singing "The Trouble Caused by the Moon"

I couldn't help it and retorted in anger, "Do you really think you are God? We must act according to how the script is written."

She sat down and pushed away a cup of overly sweet, low-quality cappuccino

Amidst the laughter and cheerful conversation, the editor said half-jokingly, "With such a comparison, it could easily be transformed into an old maid."

I am not upset by this statement; I merely found myself bored recently and read a few books on behavioral psychology, which explained that the gestures, tone, and gaze of a person with ill intentions often align closely with those of this editor

When he learned that I was merely sitting with Wei Guangyin in a nearby small garden, Liu Dazhuang held his breath and looked at me meaningfully, saying, "There is a saying about fools, and I am unsure whether to scold or not."

As the speech concluded, I instinctively glanced at the woman, noticing her expression of strategic planning, which made me feel even more uncomfortable, and I turned my head to vomit

Unexpectedly, at the end of March, I appeared in the news again, but was portrayed as a forsaken woman, because a reporter captured a photo of Wei Guangyin with a sweet-looking young lady, yet surprisingly, the identity of the other party remained unknown.

Then I will crawl out from between your legs, you are my mother

The woman shrugged and said, "What benefits are there in recognizing you? If I acknowledge you, will the old bones of the board still support me? I swam through a sea of spittle to reach Madam Wei's position. Now, just after her husband's death, she is eager to bring home the daughter she had with another man. I'm not that foolish."

During the prime time of that broadcast, some young fans called in with various questions. I made every effort to respond in an artistic and refined manner, maintaining an ethereal image. However, in the end, it was still because of Liu Dazhuang that I firmly established the label of a narcissist.
