Chapter 180 My Silly Wife
That very night, the unscrupulous capitalist collected interest for the entire night. Tong Zhao felt like a small figurine that had been disassembled and reassembled. The few hours of rest he had received were barely effective, and every part of his body was sending him warning signals of soreness and swelling.
His eyes were a little swollen, and through the small slit he managed to open, he could see that the Alpha beside him had already gotten up early and was working on his computer, with one hand affectionately wrapped around his waist and massaging it.
Tong Zhao pondered for a moment with his drowsy mind, then buried his head in Shan Song's abs, yawned softly, and closed his eyes again.
"Awake?" Shan Song noticed the movement of the person in his arms and stopped what he was doing.
"...Hmm." Tong Zhao mumbled unconsciously, "A little lower, rub it a little more..." before falling asleep again.
Dan Song chuckled softly, moving his hand down to continue serving his wife.
When Tong Zhao woke up again, Shan Song seemed to be in an online meeting, and she heard him whispering to his subordinates about assigning tasks.
After listening for a while, it dawned on him that his request from yesterday had been granted and Shan Song had sent bodyguards to protect Su Xuan. As for him, Shan Song hadn't mentioned him at all.
However, given what he said yesterday, he guessed that Director Shan would be personally protecting him. It was foreseeable that he would be Director Shan's little accessory again in the next few days. Anyway, he had almost finished researching the birthday gift, so there was no need to rush to join the crew. He could go directly to the company gym to exercise and take the opportunity to properly manage the previously stalled tourism project.
Tong Zhao had already made her plan. Coming to her senses, she gently squeezed Shan Song's hand to indicate that she was awake and not to worry about being disturbed. Shan Song turned his head slightly, squeezed Tong Zhao's hand back, gave a few instructions on the computer, handed over the task of chairing the meeting to his assistant, and then closed the computer.
"It's already afternoon, shall I take you out to eat?" Shan Song hugged her and handed his phone to Tong Zhao: "I've picked out a few places, see if there's anything you want to eat."
Tong Zhao took the phone, glanced at the time, and saw that it was four o'clock in the afternoon.
My initial thought of staying home and having nothing to do because of back pain immediately vanished. Spending the whole day in bed would be truly indulging in debauchery…
"Let's go with this one then."
Tong Zhao had been awake for a while when he realized he hadn't even dressed properly. He was wearing a single-layered pajamas that was more than one size too big, and his lower body was completely exposed. He was shy and his face flushed red. He couldn't think straight and just randomly pointed to a shop and slipped into the bathroom wrapped in a blanket.
The low laughter of Shan Song behind her was left behind. Tong Zhao's heart was pounding. Only when she leaned against the bathroom door did she have time to recall Shan Song's fierce demeanor last night. She wondered how that person could be so tough on the outside but soft on the inside. Tong Zhao couldn't help but smile: What an unprincipled Chairman Shan.
Su Xuan's addition required the team to revise their plans. With less than a week until the tenth episode aired, time was tight and the task was heavy. Therefore, this time, communication with Su Xuan was not limited to Tong Zhao alone. However, because Tong Zhao was with him, and Shan Song's high regard for Tong Zhao was evident, Su Xuan was not as tense as the first time. With the help of the professional team, he provided as many details as possible.
He differs from Tong Zhao in that once exposed, it's like digging out his old, deep-seated problems and exposing them to millions of onlookers for comment. As an ordinary person with no fan base, being attacked is the least of his worries; he might even be framed and falsely accused. Such unavoidable public opinion is undoubtedly not a good thing for someone who is already under great pressure and harm.
Tong Zhao told Shan Song about his concerns: "Why don't we let him stay at our manor for a while, cut off his internet access, and then release him?"
Dan Song was amused by the tone of his wife's suggestion: "Honey, illegal detention is against the law."
Tong Zhao pursed her lips. "You've already started lending money, yet you still have such a strong sense of law?"
"If Zhaozhao wants him to go, then let him go. You can go too, and come back after things have calmed down here."
Huh? They won't even let you pawn small charms anymore?
Seeing that Shan Song had arranged everything clearly for him, leaving no room for discussion, Tong Zhao absentmindedly responded. Shan Song thought to himself, "He seems obedient, but he might contact Jiang Li as soon as he leaves."
Tong Zhao did exactly as he expected, but before he could leave, she started typing away on her phone right in front of him. This was her trump card; Ah Li's fighting prowess was undeniable, and she didn't waste any internal energy. For Su Xuan right now, this was a huge boost to his morale; they could curse back together...
How could this not be considered reckless? Shan Song glanced at it, then glanced at it again, and finally chose to turn a blind eye.
After agreeing to Tong Zhao's request, he seemed to have completely abandoned all principles. He only had this one wife, and he had finally managed to raise her to be a little lively. Children like to play and make a fuss, and she would occasionally act spoiled. She would only make requests that were within his ability, and she even started to "pay off her debts" with a particularly strong sense of contract.
Actually, he wanted to punish his silly wife that night, whose thoughts were written all over her face, but he softened in the end and decided to stop and let his Zhaozhao off the hook. Who knew that when he let go, a certain confused little cat chased after him and hugged and rubbed against him. It was so cute.
"Silly wife," Shan Song said with a smile.
Hearing this, Tong Zhaozheng and Jiang Li were secretly having an affair. He hesitated for a moment, then remained silent.
We're in the wrong this time, we'll talk about it next time.
Even the softest persimmon can get angry...
After settling his wife in, Shan Song noticed that the Geng family seemed to be getting suspicious. First, their attitude towards Tai Yue had changed from suspicion to undisguised wariness, and they even seemed to be using him to launch a counterattack. Second, Geng Qiushi's side was also starting to encounter obstacles. Fortunately, time had been bought, and the team was proceeding according to plan in an orderly manner.
Because of the previous announcement, Geng Keli's initial exposure did not cause a great stir, which gave the public room to ferment and spread. Geng Qiushi lived up to expectations, actively winning over the support of other members of the Geng family's board of directors during the time that Shan Song had secured for him.
Despite the favorable timing, location, and popular support, the Geng family was still a step too late. In just two days, the small ripples that had been building up finally turned into a raging storm with a lengthy article published by Su Xuan and Tong Zhao accusing Geng Keli of using his position to blackmail and coerce him into committing beastly acts, along with a full list of evidence. This article ruthlessly overturned the image of the once noble and virtuous movie star in everyone's hearts.
With the show's popularity and Tong Zhao's current peak popularity, she dominated half of the trending topics, causing an uproar in the entertainment industry.
The public relations team activated its contingency plan, controlling public opinion and monitoring public sentiment. Tong Zhao also brought Jiang Li to the manor. The three of them were extremely busy even while they were in dire straits outside.
Dan Song didn't slack off during this period either. With Qi Yan's help, he quickly took back the project that Geng Keli had previously taken away while Geng Keli was busy with other projects.
Qi Taiyue's undercover work with Geng Keli ended some time ago, so there's no need for him to pretend anymore. However, he seems unusually insistent. Shan Song thought it best to let him be, but Qi Yan was quick-witted this time and preemptively mocked, "Brother, just lay it all out. This is the worst performance you've ever given."
