Chapter 143 The lipstick is food-grade and easy to wash off if used for body painting.
Please take your belongings with you, show your boarding pass, and board via the first-class lane...
The airport's electronic announcements penetrated the receiver, and the static almost drowned out Pei Weijin's words.
But Yan Zhuoyu was still able to recognize what he had just said by reading his lip movements.
It's the same old saying: "I missed you, so I came to see you."
"Alright, stop with the sweet talk, hurry up and board the plane. I've been home these past few days, and I discovered a new hot pot restaurant a few days ago. I was originally planning to go with Qin Zhuyue, but now I've decided to go with you. I just don't know if our busy CEO Pei would do me the honor?"
Pei Weijin chuckled lightly: "I'm not busy. I came back to see you, so my schedule naturally revolves around you."
As Yan Zhuoyu spoke, she sent the hot pot restaurant's promotional video to Pei Weijin: "Then it's settled. I have to record a gala on the 11th, so you can rest assured that we won't be ordering spicy broth this time."
What kind of party?
"It was a surprise night for Tmall's Singles' Day, recorded on Apple TV."
Pei Weijin turned to look at his assistant Meng Yuting, who immediately understood.
With her excellent business acumen and memory, Meng Yuting quickly replied, "President Pei, the organizers of this gala sent you an invitation before. The sponsors have VIP seats at the gala, very close to the stage. However, considering that you have never participated in such an event before, I declined the invitation on your behalf as soon as I received it."
Seeing the change in Pei Weijin's expression, Meng Yuting quickly added, "But don't worry, you just need to send a message to the organizers to reserve a seat in advance."
Yan Zhuoyu listened to their conversation, smiled knowingly, and asked, "Why has President Pei, who never attends these kinds of parties, suddenly changed his mind this year?"
Pei Weijin answered honestly, just as she expected, "Because I want to see you and be with you. I'm never bored when you're around. It would be even better if you could make our relationship public sooner, so I could be your date and attend these occasions with you."
"So you didn't attend parties before because you didn't have a suitable female companion?"
"You are the most suitable one," Pei Weijin said frankly.
Yan Zhuoyu recalled the movies Fu Zhuchen had recommended, and a small flame of inspiration rekindled in her heart.
She subtly complained, "Do you know why I didn't call you tonight as promised?"
Pei Weijin asked cooperatively, "Why?"
Seeing that he had picked up the conversation, Yan Zhuoyu began her "accusation" in a slightly exaggerated manner: "Actually, it's not a big deal. It's just that Director Fu said my crying scenes were not good, and he recommended a few movies for me to learn from. But he probably made a mistake. Those movies were all terrible. It made me so angry that I almost fainted."
Pei Weijin nodded with a faint smile: "I see."
Have you been using the lipstick or lip gloss I gave you lately?
Yan Zhuoyu was taken aback, then frowned and asked, "Why are you suddenly asking about this? I was just complaining to you about it, so you have to help me get a little revenge on Director Fu. I'm not asking for much, just let him watch those lousy movies too."
Despite filing a complaint, she didn't forget to share her experience using the product.
"That lip gloss is pretty good; it wipes clean with just a makeup remover wipe. I accidentally licked it yesterday, and it actually tasted sweet pomegranate."
A hint of a smile flashed in Pei Weijin's eyes: "As long as it works well. If there's anything that needs improvement, just contact the technical director. That lipstick is food-grade, so it's easy to wash off if used for body painting."
Yan Zhuoyu was completely confused: "Have you been in France for too long? Why did you change the subject so quickly?"
"Fast?"
Pei Weijin had already boarded the plane, and in the last few seconds, he said, "Didn't you just say that crying scenes aren't good? I'll go back and help you find the feeling."
"How do I find it... um??"
Yan Zhuoyu realized what he meant halfway through her sentence, her ears instantly turning red. She glared at him and said, "Pei Weijin! I'm hanging up!"
Why suddenly...
Is she trying to imitate this way of crying?
The two chatted briefly for a few more minutes before reluctantly hanging up the phone.
Fu Zhuchen was blacklisted again, and Pei Weijin even arranged for bodyguards to go there and watch him write reviews of those movies.
Yan Zhuoyu leaned back in her dining chair and lingered for a few minutes scrolling through Weibo before finally getting up to put the dishes and chopsticks into the dishwasher.
The phone was left downstairs to continue charging.
When she came out of the bedroom after washing up, she found that her phone, which was on the coffee table, was buzzing and had slid to the edge of the table, about to fall.
Yan Zhuoyu hurriedly rushed downstairs to save her "golden nugget".
This is a custom-made phone worth millions; it can't be dropped.
She thought it was Pei Weijin calling, and laughed as she unplugged the charging cable: "There must be something you forgot to tell me. It's not good to be so forgetful at such a young age."
Yan Zhuoyu picked up her phone and saw that the screen showed an incoming call from an unknown number.
She pressed the answer button, but the person on the other end didn't seem to realize the call had been connected. The background noise was loud, sounding like it was coming from a hospital.
"Hello, this is Yan Zhuoyu. Did you dial the wrong number?" Yan Zhuoyu asked politely.
The other party finally responded; a familiar female voice, trembling with sobs and anger, was almost shouting:
"Yan Zhuoyu, I've been looking for you! You vicious woman, how cruel you are! If you hate me, just come to me directly. Why did you treat my son like this? Why did you hurt my Xiaolong!"
Yan Zhuoyu reacted quickly and immediately recognized the voice as Lin Moqing's.
She calmly replied, "What nonsense are you spouting? If you're sick, get treatment."
Lin Moqing did not stop crying, and then another person's voice came from the other end of the phone:
"Hello, do you know this lady? She doesn't seem to be in good condition. If you know her, please come and help. The location is the emergency department of the First People's Hospital. I have something urgent to attend to. She grabbed my phone to call you. I have to go now."
Yan Zhuoyu's expression was complicated; what kind of drama were they plotting now?
"I don't know her, you should just call the police."
Yan Zhuoyu said, then switched to the phone assistant for smart calling.
The passerby was clearly embarrassed and hurriedly said, "Do whatever you want with me. I really have something urgent to attend to. You can decide what to do."
Suddenly, an argument broke out on the other end of the phone, and Yan Shuting's voice came through:
“I am your father, Yan Shuting. I know you are listening, and I understand there is a misunderstanding between you and us, but no matter what, the child should not be blamed. Your behavior this time is simply outrageous and unforgivable!”
"Yan Longyu's leg fracture had just healed not long ago, and now he's been in a car accident. Is it because I exposed your and that woman's identities a while ago that you're holding a grudge? But I remember you sent bodyguards to handle this matter back then, and you should have been satisfied with the result. But now, why are you going back on your word and ordering someone to drive a car into Xiaolong!" Yan Shuting said angrily, panting heavily.
"You come to the First People's Hospital right now and you have to give me an explanation!"
Yan Zhuoyu lay half-reclined on the sofa, lost in thought. So it turned out that the little brat had been in a car accident.
But what does this have to do with her? She wouldn't do something so frivolous as to disregard human life.
However, Yan Shuting's statement, "The harm should not befall children," sounded utterly absurd and laughable to her.
She was abandoned in a mountain village by this despicable couple when she was a child, left to fend for herself. Wasn't she a child back then?
The phone's notification light flashed twice, indicating that the phone assistant had completed the problem analysis.
The assistant replied in a sweet, mechanical female voice: "Sir, your problem is very complicated, and Xiao Lan cannot understand it at the moment. However, based on your needs, Xiao Lan suggests that you call the police. In a society governed by the rule of law, the police will give you a fair explanation."
"Furthermore, Xiaolan has recorded your malicious speculation about my owner without any evidence. If necessary, we will hand over these recordings to our lawyers to pursue legal action against you, such as for defamation and damages for reputational loss."
Yan Shuting looked helplessly at the humanoid robot: "Fine, Yan Zhuoyu, just you wait! When the police arrive, let's see how you'll try to explain yourself!"
