Chapter 60 The girl was very beautiful and intelligent; she was his wife. The man was also a man.
The Pei Group has always adhered to the nine-to-five work discipline, and Pei Weijin, as the CEO, always leaves work right on time.
Secretary Meng was driving ahead. Taking advantage of a red light, she glanced at the rearview mirror and saw her boss in the back seat still engrossed in the virtual world of the internet, looking completely absorbed.
He sighed inwardly, wondering what was so captivating that made President Pei so engrossed in his phone as soon as he got off work!
Pei Weijin sat in the back seat, his phone screen displaying the live stream interface of a popular variety show. He was intently watching the interaction between a man and a woman on the screen.
The woman was very beautiful and intelligent; she was his wife. The man was also a man.
The live stream is currently in its second segment, "You Ask, I Answer," where the host randomly selects questions from the audience's comments and the guests answer them live.
A curious person asked: "Professor Xu Guinan, after Professor Yan was unjustly criticized by a certain director, you were the first to stand up for her. At that time, 'Yao Yun Jue' had just started filming, and you and Professor Yan didn't seem to have any interaction. Did you have some private contact, or were you classmates?"
When the host read out the question, Xu Guinan's gaze fell on Yan Zhuoyu. He seemed lost in thought for a moment and remained silent for a long time.
Tong Xiaojing quickly reminded her softly, "Teacher Xu, an audience member has a question."
Xu Guinan snapped out of his reverie and smiled gently at the camera: "Sorry, I was lost in thought just now."
He then explained earnestly, "I met Xiao Yan on the set of 'Yao Yun Jue'. The first time I saw her, I thought she was a good person, so I had a good impression of her. After so many things happened, I stayed by her side and felt sorry for her."
As he spoke, he glanced at Yan Zhuoyu again, his eyes filled with a complex mix of emotions.
“A young girl venturing out into the world will always be misunderstood by many people. I thought that since I had been through the rain, I should hold an umbrella for others.”
His occasional affectionate gazes at Yan Zhuoyu, along with his ambiguous and vague words, immediately led the audience to imagine a whole host of scenarios.
The comments section was flooded with messages, and Xu Guinan kept a close eye on them. The online trolls he had arranged had already joined the fray.
[Wow, that's explosive! This is practically an open admission that he has feelings for Yan Zhuoyu. I love actors who dare to speak their minds, I'm a fan now!]
[Tsk, does the person who said Zhuobao was just piggybacking on someone else dare say it again? Your brother is such a disappointment.]
[Is this considered an official announcement, folks? It's so sweet! A gentle, approachable older brother x a stubborn, unyielding girl. I'll hold the umbrella for you, ahhhhh!]
[I have a feeling this guy is in a one-sided crush. Yan Zhuoyu didn't show any expression at all, and at the beginning of the live stream she was standing with Xu Guinan, but she quietly changed positions after a short while.]
Looking back now, Xu Guinan's photo was a subtle confession of love!
Seeing the buzz, and with the director frantically giving her signals from the audience, the host seized the opportunity to ask, "So, about that photo..."
Xu Guinan smiled slightly and was about to speak when Yan Zhuoyu spoke first.
"Yes, that photo was taken by Teacher Xu without my knowledge."
Yan Zhuoyu smiled faintly, but there was a hint of displeasure in her eyes: "Although Teacher Xu is not yet thirty years old this year, his experience and maturity far exceed those of his peers. He gives me the feeling of an elder. Teacher Xu will definitely be able to hold up an umbrella for more people in the future."
"I am very grateful for the care and companionship of everyone in the crew during this time. However, viewers in front of the screen should not easily imitate Teacher Xu's behavior, as it can easily lead to legal trouble!"
Mr. Pei, who was watching the live stream, laughed, but the comments section froze. After a few seconds, the viewers became even more curious.
[Am I just imagining things? I have a feeling that Sister Yan is implying that Xu Guinan is old, mature, and scheming, and that she even secretly took photos?]
[Isn't she being a bit ungrateful...? If Xu Guinan hadn't come out to clear Yan Zhuoyu's name back then, she would have been finished long ago, right?]
[You're overthinking it. If he already had the photos, why didn't he say anything before Yan Zhuoyu produced the surveillance footage? If he truly had feelings for her, how could he tolerate her being criticized for so long? In the end, he was just objectively taking sides with the production crew.]
This is hard to judge, I'm a bit hesitant to ship him... I wish him success.
……
Seeing that things were going wrong, the host quickly tried to ease the tension: "Haha, it seems that Mr. Xu Guinan is very popular on set. Now let's move on to the second question."
The production team also started manipulating the comments.
[I'd like to ask what the criteria are for choosing a partner among the lead actors~]
