Soon, Luo Qingyuan returned to the company and started an emergency meeting.
At that moment, Nanxing was filming when Chen Feng called her out.
Nanxing looked bewildered: "Director Chen, what's wrong?"
Chen Feng handed over the phone directly. Nan Xing took it with some suspicion, glanced at it, and then exclaimed in surprise, "How could this be?"
Chen Feng looked rather unwell.
Nanxing: "This matter happened so long ago, and there haven't been any scandals recently."
Nanxing looked somewhat flustered; this was the first time she had been involved in a scandal, and with someone she had never expected.
Director Chen: "The higher-ups have already given instructions to try to suppress trending topics. There's still a month until the new drama airs, and we're in the final stages of production. You'd better keep a low profile lately and avoid giving anyone any excuses."
Nanxing: "I understand."
Chen Feng is gone, but Nan Xing is still undecided. Looking at the videos and pictures trending on social media, her memory is pulled back to the day of the fire.
Duan Ye's embrace felt so reassuring...
I wonder how Duan Ye will react when he sees this news. Will he be secretly pleased, or nervous?
Duan Ye spent the entire day working, only managing a quick lunch before returning to his work.
It wasn't until 8 p.m. that Duan Ye and his colleagues managed to repair the main unit, ensuring it could operate normally.
When Duan Ye came out of the engineering department, it was already 8:30 pm. He glanced at his phone and saw that there were more than 20 incoming calls.
Duan Ye was slightly surprised. Who was making so many calls to him?
When he opened the number, there were two Luo Qingyuan numbers, two Nan Xing numbers, and one each from his parents. The rest were all unfamiliar numbers.
Duan Ye was a little confused. Why were there so many calls from unknown numbers?
But Duan Ye still chose to go back to his mother first.
As soon as the call connected, Ding Yifen's voice came through: "Son, are you off work?"
Duan Ye: "Yeah, Mom, I was working overtime today and didn't have time to check my phone. What's wrong?"
Ding Yifen was silent for a moment, then said, "Son, come home tonight. Your parents have something to tell you."
Duan Ye was slightly taken aback: "Is there something you can't say now?"
Ding Yifen: "You should come back. Your father and mother are waiting for you at home."
After saying that, Ding Yifen hung up the phone, not giving Duan Ye a chance to speak again.
Duan Ye was a little confused, but he could only obey. He was afraid that something urgent might have happened at home, especially since his mother's tone sounded very strange.
Duan Ye returned Luo Qingyuan's call as he walked towards the parking lot.
Duan Ye: "Qingyuan, what's wrong?"
Luo Qingyuan's voice sounded tired: "You just got off work?"
Duan Ye nodded: "Yeah, I've been a bit busy today. How about you? Are you alright? Something sounds off about you."
Luo Qingyuan rubbed her temples: "I'm fine, just a little tired. I just got off work and am heading back to the hotel. Do you need me to pick you up on the way?"
Luo Qingyuan thought that she should talk to Duan Ye about this in person and think about it together to figure out how this wave of popularity came about.
At first, Luo Qingyuan thought it was Jiang Jingchuan's revenge, so she sent people to investigate, but no matter how hard they investigated, they found nothing.
On the surface, it looks like a tabloid story exaggerated by paparazzi, as if it were a deliberate attempt to smear Nanxing and Duan Ye.
But Nanxing has never had any scandals, and he's not even a big star, so who would be so bored?
Duan Ye has never appeared in the public eye before. How did these two completely unrelated people end up trending on social media together?
Henglun mobilized its entire public relations department to quickly suppress the trending topic and hack those accounts.
This is something that has never happened before.
Luo Qingyuan felt this was not simple, and she really wanted to hear Duan Ye's thoughts.
But Duan Ye said, "I'm sorry, Qingyuan, my parents want me to go home now. Something might have happened at home. I'll go back and check on things first. If it gets too late, I won't be back tonight. You can go back to the hotel and rest. Don't wait for me."
Luo Qingyuan was slightly taken aback: "What is it? Do you need me to come with you?"
Duan Ye: "No need, Grandma is still at the hotel. You should go back and spend some time with her."
Luo Qingyuan could only agree: "Alright then, I'll come to see you during your lunch break tomorrow. There are some things I want to tell you."
Duan Ye: "Okay, good night."
With Duan Ye not returning, Luo Qingyuan felt a pang of longing and couldn't help but tease him with a smile, "Who are you saying goodnight to?"
Duan Ye simply couldn't bring himself to call her "wife."
So Duan Ye could only chuckle and reply, "Goodnight, Sister Luo."
Luo Qingyuan's mood immediately improved. She didn't care if others called her "sister," but she loved it when Duan Ye called her "sister." His voice was so nice... and it felt so special.
So, Luo Qingyuan said softly, "Goodnight, Aye."
Even after hanging up the phone, Duan Ye's smile didn't fade at all. He stretched out his fingers and gently stroked the WeChat chat page with Luo Qingyuan.
The thought of not being able to see Luo Qingyuan tonight filled me with a sense of loss…
Soon, Duan Ye composed himself and drove home.
Duan Ye arrived home at 9:10 p.m.
As soon as Duan Ye got home, he sensed that something was off. After he changed his shoes and went inside, he found his parents sitting on the sofa waiting for him.
Duan Ye put down his keys and bag, and walked over looking bewildered: "What's wrong? What happened?"
Duan Sheng: "Today, your Uncle Nan Hao came up and apologized."
Duan Ye was even more confused: "What's wrong? What did he apologize for?"
Ding Yifen: "Xiao Ye has been busy all day and probably hasn't seen the news. Let's show it to him first."
