Chapter 159 Crack
Miss Shen felt that she had a strong mental state. Even though she had just been nearly disfigured, she still went to the crew according to the schedule without any emotional fluctuations.
As soon as she arrived on the set, she was surrounded by the crew's greetings and care, so she didn't notice that the assistant who was always by her side had left quietly at some point.
·
Half an hour later, in Shengshi’s president’s office.
The man in the boss chair had a cold expression on his face as he read the documents while listening to Shi Yi's methodical report.
From eating habits to the movies he likes to watch recently, from catchphrases to how he gets along with others, from small disturbances in life to some disputes on the crew.
Every line and every sentence is a fragment of details, and then these fragments are pieced together bit by bit to become a real and vivid dance.
After finishing talking about the sulfuric acid incident, Shi Yi suddenly paused and then said,
"There's another thing I find rather strange..."
Cheng Zhiyuan looked up at him and motioned him to continue.
Shi Yi said,
"Two days ago, Mr. Ning from Mingzhu Media came to pick up Ning Qianqian. At that time, Miss Pianpian behaved very strangely."
The tip of the pen that was signing on the paper suddenly stopped, and the black ink slowly overflowed and spread.
Cheng Zhiyuan's expression remained unchanged.
"Why is it strange?"
Shi Yi recalled the situation at that time and organized his words.
"I didn't hear clearly what she said to Ning Qianqian at first, but then Miss Pianpian seemed to be in great pain. She held onto the wall and pressed her chest, as if she couldn't breathe. After getting in the car, she kept her eyes closed and leaned back in the chair without saying a word. Her face looked very ugly, and her breathing was almost inaudible."
The ink from the pen had soaked through the paper, but the man stared at the tip of the pen, seemingly unaware and motionless.
The sunlight filtered in through the floor-to-ceiling windows, blurring the deep and sharp contours of his profile. His eyes, as deep as the abyss and the sea of stars, were now shrouded in a thin layer of gray mist, making him look as if he was in a trance.
However, how could the boss have such an expression?
Shi Yi told himself that he was overthinking it.
After a while, Boss Cheng moved. He crumpled up his subordinate's contract and threw it on the table, then told him to leave calmly.
Shi Yi left quickly, and Cheng Zhiyuan slowly stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window. The glass blurredly reflected his silent and obscure expression at the moment.
I have been telling myself over and over that it is impossible so I should not hold on to ridiculous guesses, but I still hold on to every clue again and again, just like a person on a cliff holding on to a spider silk. Even though I know that the possibility of this hope breaking is infinitely close to 100%, I still want to hold on tightly and not let go, trying to escape from the abyss.
Almost desperate hope.
Cheng Zhiyuan looked at himself in the mirror and curled the corners of his mouth slightly, it was a sarcastic smile.
Smile at yourself.
The man's always cold and strong shell seemed to be cracked at this moment, and in the crack was his almost sharp mockery of himself.
Then he pressed his lips into a straight line, walked to the desk, and told Secretary Liu to
"Prepare the car and return home."

Still in the dimly lit study, Cheng Zhiyuan took out the personal information of Shen Pianpian that he had not finished reading last time from the drawer.
He turned on the desk lamp and continued to turn the pages one by one.
When there were only a few left, his hand suddenly stopped.
That was a conversation between the Shen family's nanny and someone else.
"I don't know what's wrong with my second daughter. She seems to have become a different person these past few days. Her temper has also improved. Before, if I cleaned her room a little late, she would scold me. Now, even if I forget to wash a piece of clothing, she won't scold me."
After this page, Miss Chen, who had been rebellious for several years, suddenly became obedient, dyed her hair back, dressed normally, stopped indulging in bars, and was even suddenly noticed by Cui Mao, and was quickly signed to Shengshi as an artist.
In all the information before this, Shen Pianpian had never shown any interest in the entertainment industry.
After that, she had a complete falling out with Shen's father and left the Shen family without taking anything with her and moved into the company. Her decisive and disdainful attitude was completely different from the gloomy and rebellious Shen Pianpian who always asked her father for money.
The room was silent as the man flipped through the pages one by one. His silent silhouette was like an undercurrent slowly rising and falling beneath the calm sea.
