Chapter 231 The Conservative Yan Qing
During the week he was recovering from his injury, Chen Su kept thinking about how he should treat An Jin.
Cursing is too mild and insufficient to quell the hatred in Chen Su's heart.
Or take action?
Chen Su frowned deeply, recalling An Jin's bruised and swollen face.
No, that's despicable.
What if I hit it lightly?
A thin cowhide whip will hurt when you strike it, but it won't break the bones.
It's best to do it yourself.
Chen Su's Adam's apple bobbed as he suppressed the wild thoughts in his mind.
Let's forget about it.
It's true that An Jin cheated on Chen Su with someone else, but Chen Su always felt ashamed for dwelling on it.
The reason he got together with An Jin was just to have some fun, right?
We're all players, so we need to be able to afford to play the game.
Chen Su rationally told himself that he shouldn't pay attention to a restless woman like An Jin.
But his thoughts were always a jumbled mess.
After all, I was quite happy when I was with An Jin.
Thinking of this, Chen Su suddenly felt a chill.
Could it be that I've fallen for An Jin?
Absolutely not.
The answer came to Chen Su the next second.
I felt insulted; my self-esteem was hurt because An Jin cheated on me.
I am definitely not disappointed because An Jin ran away too quickly.
With a dark expression, Chen Su called his assistant to have him discharged from the hospital.
"I'm still too idle."
It's better to be busy than to have time to overthink things.
After being discharged from the hospital, Chen Su forced himself to keep busy.
He's the company's CEO; if he really wants to get things done, he'll never be short of work.
Chen Su was busy with work, and An Jin, who was also busy with work, was on tenterhooks every day.
Two weeks ago, the variety show that An Jin participated in premiered, attracting the attention of many viewers.
Various creative screenshots and edited videos kept appearing online, causing An Jin's social media backends to explode.
The most popular video clip is a CP video featuring An Jin and Zhou Hongguang, also known as "The Bread Man".
Familiarity, tacit cooperation, superb gaming skills, and excellent tournament player qualities.
Aside from their gender and personality, the two are almost identical in every other way.
Those who don't ship couples see this as team camaraderie, while those who do see it as the unspoken understanding between lovers.
Because the couple became so incredibly popular, when An Jin went back to record more variety shows, Zhou Hongguang's wife specially treated An Jin to a meal.
An Jin was completely baffled when she received the invitation.
Her relationship with Zhou Hongguang was actually just a slightly better working relationship.
The two people's social circles are basically not the same. An Jin can understand when Zhou Hongguang invites An Jin to dinner, but she doesn't quite get it when Zhou Hongguang's wife invites her to dinner.
"What's going on?"
An Jin thought of the widely circulated CP (couple) videos of her and Zhou Hongguang online recently, and couldn't help but wonder what Zhou Hongguang's wife meant.
"Is she here to warn me to stay away from her husband?"
Around the long table where An Jin was working, the three men who were working all looked up at the same time.
Jiang Jinhan was the first to speak. He was an acquaintance of Zhou Hongguang and knew everything about Zhou Hongguang's family situation.
"It shouldn't be."
Jiang Jinhan said, "Sister Zhou isn't that kind of person."
He had previously run away from home without his family's knowledge, and when he had no money to stay in an internet cafe, Zhou Hongguang took him home and stayed there for a while.
Sister Zhou has always been very good to him.
Sister Zhou is Zhou Hongguang's wife; the couple share the same surname.
An Jin stroked her chin: "The main thing is that her invitation was too sudden, and I felt really uneasy."
Pei Ning looked up from the table and said something completely unrelated.
“It’s been a month already. If Chen Su wanted to get back at you, he would have done it already.”
An Jin broke down and said, "I didn't mean that!"
Don't expose her!
Pei Ning: "Yes, yes, you didn't think of that. I was overthinking it."
Busy replying to messages from advertisers, Yan Qing looked up and gave Pei Ning a reproachful look: "Are you free today?"
You have so many things to do, yet you still have to go looking for free time.
Pei Ning muttered, "I'm exhausted, and I finally get a day off at home today."
He used to have such an easy life, just eating, drinking and having fun every day. Now it's like he's found a job, he has to get up early every morning to go to the company.
Ignoring Pei Ning, who reeked of being a corporate slave, Yan Qing instead comforted the frightened An Jin: "Staying cooped up at home every day isn't good for your health. Why don't you let Xiao Jiang go with you?"
With Jiang Jinhan's lubricant around, nothing serious should happen.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Jinhan immediately accepted the task: "An'an, I'll go with you."
Pei Ning said with dissatisfaction, "Why am I not included in such a good thing?"
He's tired too, you know.
Yan Qing glanced at him and said, "Go if you want to."
Everyone's been under a lot of stress lately, it's time to go out and have some fun.
An Jin rested her chin on her hand and looked at them, saying, "If the variety show hadn't finished filming, I really wouldn't want to go."
If she remembered correctly, Chen Su was the big financial backer behind variety shows.
An Jin slumped listlessly on the table.
"We're here with you, even if the editing is terrible, it's okay."
Yan Qing said with a smile, "We've overcome so many difficulties before, so appearing on a variety show is nothing. The foundation of live streaming will not be shaken."
An Jin already had a bad reputation in the live streaming community, and had always been known as a "bad person".
Even if Chen Su uses his wealth to manipulate the production team into maliciously editing An Jin's scenes, An Jin can still make a normal comeback once the storm passes.
"Ugh, Qingqing, so annoying."
An Jin got up and nestled in Yan Qing's arms, refusing to leave: "If I had known, I wouldn't have gone to a hotel with Jiang Jinhan."
It created a huge mess.
Jiang Jinhan didn't dare to speak. Looking at the screen in front of him, he started typing furiously.
Pei Ning watched the spectacle from the sidelines, her eyes filled with amusement as she looked at Jiang Jinhan.
Yan Qing, like a mother, tolerated An Jin's bad mood, constantly stroking An Jin's back with her warm palms, as if she wanted to wipe away all the bad mood from An Jin's body.
"Don't say that, it will upset Xiao Jiang."
It's too late for regrets now; we might as well look forward.
An Jin glared at Jiang Jinhan and said, "He still dares to be upset? Damn it, just thinking about it makes me angry."
An Jin jumped out of Yan Qing's arms and grumbled, "Jiang Jinhan, come upstairs with me."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Jinhan immediately stood up, feigning a look of fear, but his eyes shone with an astonishing brightness.
Pei Ning lazily lit a cigarette. Seeing An Jin call Jiang Jinhan upstairs, he looked into An Jin's eyes and said something ambiguous.
"To indulge in debauchery in broad daylight."
An Jinhong stepped forward and pulled Pei Ning up from the office chair.
"You like making sarcastic remarks? You should join me!"
Jiang Jinhan stood up anxiously: "An'an, what about me?"
Yan Qing sighed and said, "Xiao Jiang, stop causing trouble."
An Jin was dragging Pei Ning upstairs at that moment. Before she could speak, Pei Ning answered for her.
Pei Ning stubbed out his cigarette on the stair railing, exhaled the white smoke from his mouth, and looked at the anxious Jiang Jinhan with interest.
"Come on."
Pei Ning chuckled and said, "The fact that Erlang served the emperor in bed is quite a story."
Yan Qing felt his ears were dirty, and he couldn't stand it anymore, so he said, "Stop teasing people, go upstairs now."
Pei Ning raised an eyebrow, said nothing, and reached out to pick An Jin up.
"Come on, my old lady, your son's here to sleep with you."
An Jin screamed in fright, and slaps and fists rained down on Pei Ning's face and body.
Jiang Jinhan, who witnessed the two going upstairs, thought about it for a moment and quickly understood.
"Xiao Jiang?!"
Hearing footsteps, Yan Qing turned to look at Jiang Jinhan.
With An Jin gone, Jiang Jinhan was no longer the timid, submissive student she had just been.
He smiled at Yan Qing and strode upstairs.
"Brother Yanqing, I'll leave the rest to you."
Yan Qing witnessed a farce unfold: ...
Sure enough, he was still too conservative.
