C15 After the Press Conference

Big men have big men to worry about, and small men have small men to worry about.

After the press conference, the group rushed back to Glory World. They squeezed into a small office and cried miserably.

"Make a big news release in three hours. Kill me..." Yu Lixing felt like he was going crazy.

No one had expected a big story to blow up without warning tonight, but as journalists, their stories were the most effective, and if they couldn't get it in today, they would fall behind a dozen other media outlets.

"Are we the only ones in the golden age?" Lee Yu asked.

"Yes."

Liu Yuan came back after smoking a cigarette. When everyone saw him, they were like drowning people who saw a piece of driftwood. They screamed and tried to climb up. Liu Yuan waved his sleeves and pretended to be a shopkeeper. His reputation allowed them to experience more.

"Brother Liu, you are too cruel."

"Hurry up and write it."

At ten o'clock, Soong Lan found an excuse to go to the toilet. She ran outside for ten minutes to calm her anxious heart.

Soong Lan was confused by the collision. Just as she was about to fly into a rage, she heard an unfamiliar and magnetic male voice from the other side.

"Soong Lan?"

It was not someone she knew.

Soong Lan steadied herself against the wall and raised her head to look at the person she had accidentally bumped into, from the shoes on his feet to the black suit and then to his face.

Soong Lan felt her eyelids twitching.

She had just seen that handsome face at the press conference.

Pei Kiu.

She threw the question of how the other party knew a nobody like her into outer space and quickly said, "Sorry! I wasn't looking at the road and accidentally bumped into you."

"It's fine."

Soong Lan could hear the estrangement in his words.

She could not help but heave a sigh of relief.

She had thought too much just now. Perhaps someone else was calling her just now. How could such a person know her?

She smiled apologetically at him. She was about to leave when he spoke again.

"What time are you guys going to be busy this time?"

Soong Lan kept feeling that something was wrong, but she couldn't put her finger on it. What could this legendary figure who only appeared on television have to do with them?

Perhaps it was a whim of the leader to empathize with his subordinates.

"It will probably be 12 o'clock at night, until the script is set and sent to the editor."

Pei Kiu nodded.

"Thank you for your hard work."

His words were still distant and indifferent, like the wind at the end of autumn and the beginning of winter. It seemed very light, but also very cold.

Soong Lan smiled.

Fortunately, the great god had no desire to continue the conversation with her and walked away. Soong Lan stared at the man's back and hesitated to go out into the cold wind for another ten minutes or so.

She felt that she was frightened and her soul was floating.

Soong Lan ran back to her office and drank half a cup of water from the water dispenser before she felt her soul return to her body.

At this time, Yu Lian was playing the recording in her recording pen. The reporters recorded every word of the questions from the CEO and Pei Kiu, as well as their answers. It was just that the scene was a little noisy and the quality of the voice was unclear.

"Are you sure you're a reporter? Not a paparazzi?"

... ""

Yu Lian felt that there was no way to explain this.

However, with this recording pen, they would be able to get the gist of the conversation and sift through the contents. After a long discussion, Liu Yuan lit another cigarette in silence, causing the entire office to be filled with smoke.

"Brother Liu, give me one too."

Yu Lian said shyly.

Liu Yuan was stunned when he heard her words. He put out his half-smoked cigarette and threw it into the trash can. "What are you smoking, girl?"

Yu Lian sighed helplessly. This kind of high-pressure work required a cigarette to relieve the endless pressure and loneliness.

However, Liu Yuan smoked more cigarettes today than usual. Usually, he would not smoke in the office, but today, for some reason, he made an exception.

At 10: 30.

"Come, come, come. Set the questions. We know the general meaning now. Where are the questions and the theme?"

"Isn't the theme just two people working together?"

"Do you want to write a review?"

"Two hours to write my ass. I can't even explain it."

11 o'clock.

"No, no, no. You can't write this way. It's not accurate," Wang Yao said.

"I think it's a good description," Wang Yao said.

"Miss Lan, why do you have to go against me today?"

"Opposition is the original motivation for progress?"

With a few plops, everyone knelt down in front of Lee Yu. Yu Lian had seen Lee Yu's profoundness and shrewdness on the other hand before the press conference began.

Eleven-twenty.

"Coffee is not enough to wake me up!"

Yu Lian shouted.

Lee Yu stared at the computer with a calm expression on her face.

"Drink two more cups."

"Don't. I've been to the toilet three times since just now. I can't run anymore."

Amidst the wails, the few of them barely managed to finish writing the article.

Lee Yu said.

"Do you want to practice?"

Everyone's eyes were filled with tears as they lamented the terrible situation in the editorial department.

Eleven-thirty.

Someone knocked on the office door.

Liu Yuan, who was the closest to the door, opened the door to the office. He was greeted by a delicate and pretty woman in a formal suit with a business-like smile.

"May I ask which one of you is Miss Yu Lian?"

Everyone turned to look at Yu Lian, who was hugging the back of a chair and sitting back to back.

"I am, may I ask..."

The woman walked over with a smile on her face. She slowly moved her hand away from her back. In her slender hand was a flower.

"Please accept it."

While Yu Lian was still in a daze, the woman handed her the flowers and politely said goodbye to the people in the office before flying away like a black and white butterfly.

Everyone's eyes fell on the flower she had received. It was a black rose wrapped in translucent white wrapping paper.

A black rose.

It was not the dark red or black rose she saw in the flower shop. The black rose in front of her was as black as the night outside the window, without any other color.

"Damn, did your boyfriend give it to me?"

Yu Lian shook her head.

But she knew who had given it to her.

At the same time, Lee Yu opened Baidu and typed a line of words on the search bar with her slender fingers.

Black Rose's flower language

"It's only for reference." Lee Yu adjusted the frame in the middle of her glasses.

Yu Lian's eyes flashed across the three words that quickly flashed past, and her eyebrows jumped. When she finally managed to calm her agitated heart, she couldn't help but rub her ears.

Looking at these messy sentences, she didn't know why, but in her mind, she saw Master Pei's lips against her ear, the hot wind blowing across her cheeks, but it couldn't stand up to the words of love that came out of the man's mouth.

You will be mine.

I will completely possess your love.

She just couldn't accept it.

She found a pen holder and threw Black Rose in. Then she looked at the people around her who were waiting for gossip. She smiled shamelessly and showed two dimples.

"Shall we continue to work?"

Everyone sighed.

Soong Lan stared at the black rose, and her black eyes flashed with a light. For some reason, looking at the rose, she couldn't help but think of the encounter and the question Pei Kiu had asked her.

What time will you be busy?

But she felt that her feelings were illogical.

All of them here were basically parallel lines with Director Pei. Perhaps today they would cross paths by accident, but fate would revise them in the next instant, restoring them to their previous parallel state.

There was definitely no connection between the two.

Soong Lan felt that she was really too tired today to be able to put her colleague and a dignified CEO together.

Was this a f * cking novel?

Soong Lan shook her head and smiled.

At 12 o'clock sharp.

"DogLeading! I choose DogLeading!"

"Even if you die, you have to come back to life."

"Too cruel."

"Yes, please work tirelessly like zombies."

... ""

At 12: 20 PM, all the work was done.

Liu Yuan took the cigarette in his mouth and sent the electronic draft to the editing room. The rest of the staff stared blankly at it and laid on the table for three minutes in silence.

...

They planned to find a cheap hotel nearby and stay there for the night. Tomorrow morning, they would go straight to the filming location.

However, Yu Lian insisted on going home.

Since Yu Lian insisted that she had something to do at home, no one could persuade her otherwise. They just let her take the black rose and disappear into the night.

Sitting in the car.

She quietly looked at the rose in her hand.

When she was young, she thought that if she had a boyfriend a long time later, he might give her a bouquet of roses. One, three, five, nine, but in her imagination, she should have received red roses. In the day, they were like fire, and in the night, they were as bright as blood.

The red rose represented a bright and beautiful feeling. As for the black, it was covered with a mysterious color. The first rose she received in her life was pure black, like the endless night sky, like the eyes of an Oriental.

Yu Lian.

Look at your rotten peach blossom.

Yu Lian sighed helplessly and leaned against the back of the chair, closing her eyes to rest.

Later.

Yu Lian woke up, took out her phone from her bag to check the time, and then scrolled through the latest news. Glory World and Pei Kiu hadn't appeared on the news yet.

Half past one.

Yu Lian finally returned home.

When she pushed open the door, it was dark and quiet. The large room looked a little eerie.

What the hell?

That Pei guy, she really believed in him!

Yu Lian felt like she was going to vomit blood. She silently suppressed the blood that was boiling because of the caffeine.

She found a bottle in the dark and took off the wrapping paper. She put the flowers in the bottle and threw it on the table. Then she yawned and dragged her backpack all the way to the second floor.

Yu Lian threw herself onto the bed and lay there, reminiscing about the exciting and busy day.

She thought about her plans for the next day. She had to get up at around six o'clock in the morning and catch the subway to Glory World. Then, she would head straight to the filming location. She estimated that she would be staying there for a few days this time.

Fortunately, she was still young.

She could withstand the busy work.
