Before Wen Zhaonian left, Li Tangyan hesitated for a long time but couldn't help but tug at his clothes.
Once her gaze fell upon him from above, she stammered, "What did you mean by what you said before the power went out?"
Her hand, hanging by her side, unconsciously tugged at the slightly long cuff of her sleeve, her fingertips pressing a small wrinkle into it.
What do you think I mean?
Wen Zhaonian's voice was slightly calm, and his question made people's hearts tighten.
Li Tangyan pursed her lips, her drooping eyelashes trembling.
On the other side, Wen Zhaonian lowered his eyelids and his gaze fell on the half of her fingers that were hanging down by her side and exposed outside her sleeve.
As she pinched her fingers inward, her fingertips turned slightly white.
“…”
Time passed little by little.
After the hands of the clock on the wall had spun a few more times, Li Tangyan felt someone reach out and gently rub her head, which was slightly lowered.
She paused for a moment.
So much so that the fleeting emotion on Wen Zhaonian's face was caught the moment he looked up.
He twitched the corner of his mouth, and as he opened his lips, his Adam's apple bobbed slowly: "Look how scared you are."
"Be more careful next time you peek; your eyes are practically glued to my face."

In the end, Li Tangyan was chosen as the one to go to headquarters.
The reason for this is that during the days when the Zhou Yong incident was constantly fermenting online.
I don't know who posted a video online, but it was blurry enough to watch.
The video content happened to be the scene from the day when Li Tangyan, after Hao Fu's wife had a miscarriage, came back to get her things and happened to run into Lü Hua'er crying to him.
The fact that every word was included, along with some suggestive scenes at the end of the video, immediately put the newspaper in the spotlight.
Therefore, in order to minimize the impact on the newspaper, the higher-ups took serious action against the two individuals immediately.
Therefore, there is no need to continue the so-called extension of the review period.
That day, Li Tangyan had just left the hospital with the report when someone grabbed her from behind, covered her mouth, and dragged her into a car that was waiting nearby.
As the black car drove by, the report that had fallen to the ground was blown up by the passing wind and landed in front of a pair of high heels.
Cen Ruan glanced in the direction the car had gone, and as she bent down, she picked up the things on the ground.
His gaze swept lightly over the contents, a flicker of his eye meeting hers...

Li Tangyan was awakened by the wind on the rooftop.
The cold wind howled, and Lü Hua'er stood two meters away from her.
She was slender, with a small bandage on her fair face. Her eyes, which were usually moist and affectionate, were now filled with a frantic, growing hatred.
On the other side, the moment she saw Li Tangyan wake up, Lü Hua'er had already slowly walked towards them.
As I squatted down, my slightly long fingernails pressed against my cheek, causing a faint stinging sensation.
"You're finally awake."
"With all the obstacles gone, you must have been living quite comfortably these past few days, right?"
I don't understand what you mean.
Li Tangyan frowned slightly, trying to break free of her bound body, but found that her hands were tightly bound.
Lu Hua'er, who was standing nearby, also noticed her little actions, sneered and moved closer.
A cool breeze ruffled the hair on the side of her face, revealing the slightly red wound on the gauze: "Don't you understand? If it weren't for you, would I be in this state?"
After his affair with Hao Fu was exposed, he was dismissed from his post.
Zhou Yong didn't gain any advantage either.
Everything that had been painstakingly built up seemed to collapse in an instant, returning to square one, or even worse.
At the same time, what she didn't expect was that she had always thought that even if she lost everything, at least Lu Chuan was still someone she could control.
It's unclear how he found out that he got involved with Zhou Yong by stepping on Zhou Yong's back.
After an argument, he left, accidentally bumping his face.
How could she accept this?
"I'm ruined anyway, so today... let's die together."
As she spoke, Lü Hua'er grabbed her hair and pulled her towards the edge of the fence that had already been dismantled.
The wind whistled past her ears, and the constant stinging on her scalp made her feel that Lü Hua'er had truly gone mad.
In the chaos, Li Tangyan spotted a rusty iron door not far away that was half-open and had been forgotten to be closed by Lü Hua'er, and her eyes flashed.
Then, taking advantage of her attention being focused on pulling him out, he hooked his right foot.
As Lü Hua'er lost her balance and fell backward, his body pressed heavily down on her.
Then, a sharp cry of pain rang out from beneath her.
Li Tangyan seized the opportunity to stand up and run towards the rusty door.

Just as she was silently counting down the last distance, a familiar figure rushed into the half-open rusty door from behind, accompanied by a hurried sound.
The moment Li Tangyan saw Wen Zhaonian, she felt a surge of joy.
However, before she could speak, she felt a sharp pain in the back of her head, and the blood-stained stone quickly rolled to the side.
Bang--
The moment my body hit the ground, everything I could see gradually blurred.
The surrounding noise was constant, except for Lü Hua'er's unrestrained laughter after her success.
She also seemed to hear Wen Zhaonian call her name.
At that moment, Li Tangyan only remembered that there seemed to be a strange tremor in that clear voice...
When Li Tangyan woke up, the afterglow of the setting sun was already appearing outside.
The air was filled with a faint smell of disinfectant, and the wound on the back of my head was still throbbing.
