She even gave an example," Boss, do you still remember that celebrity, Aki, who became popular because of a beautiful girl in a Han outfit two years ago? "
Yu Xiaowen nodded.
"Back then, the well-reputed entertainment that planned that piece of news also sent people to participate. Even they were not selected. Isn't it very strange? They are Fame Entertainment! "
Lau's explanation was exchanged for Yu Xiaowen's knock on her head. "Silly girl, you also know that they are an entertainment company. What Harry Blue needs is to create a brand image, not to create hype. "
"But. . . " Liu Fangfang covered her head and still felt that something was wrong.
"There's no buts!" Yu Xiaowen interrupted her guess and said, "Have some confidence in our magazine. "
"Oh. " Lau puckered her lips and reluctantly listened.
"I will be busy with Su Qiyang's interview. You guys go out for dinner tonight and directly settle the accounts. You can ask me to reimburse you later. "
After sending Lau away, Yu Xiaowen took the interview draft and decided to make good use of this opportunity to let the magazine become famous in the industry.
At that time, she would have the ability to make the magazine independent and do what she wanted to do. Just thinking about it made her feel that the future was bright and bright.
. . .
Peng Yichen felt at ease. Yu Xiaowen had been muddle-headed the whole day. Her words, "I already have a husband and child," echoed in his ears like an echo, causing him to be lost in thought for a few times during the afternoon interview.
He had experience going abroad, and he had passed in terms of business knowledge. In the end, he successfully got a job, and the salary was very generous. He was not very happy.
Muh Yue was his and Yu Xiaowen's mutual friend. He wanted to find someone to talk to, so he called her and asked them to meet at the coffee shop where they used to frequently gather.
Peng Yichen arrived first, and Muh Yue only appeared after about 20 minutes.
"Long time no see!" Peng Yichen saw her appear and quickly stood up. He pulled a chair for her with a graceful bearing.
Muh Yue smiled at him and said, "Thank you. "
It had been a few years since they last saw each other, so the two of them could not help but feel somewhat restrained.
Muh Yue's heart was currently very conflicted. She was Yu Xiaowen's best friend, so she should stand by her best friend's side. She hated Peng Yichen's departure back then, so she should not have appeared here.
But the moment she received his call, she unexpectedly agreed to come out and meet him.
Peng Yichen ordered a cup of coffee for her. It was her favorite cappuccino. Separated by the sweet and sweet steam of the coffee, Muh Yue looked at his familiar handsome face and felt a dull pain in her heart.
She faintly opened her mouth, "When did you come back?"
"Just a few days ago!" Peng Yichen smiled, his smile somewhat forced.
Muh Yue saw it and asked, "Have you seen her?"
She was referring to Yu Xiaowen. The only link between them was Yu Xiaowen.
"Yes. " Peng Yichen looked at her and pretended to be relaxed. "You really can't hide anything from your eyes. "
He couldn't hide anything from her, could he? What you want to say is already written on your face.
Muh Yue bit her lips and said bluntly: "Speak, what do you want from me? It can't be as simple as drinking coffee, right?"
She could not lie to herself. Nothing would happen if Peng Yichen looked for her. Muh Yue felt that she was very lamentable.
Peng Yichen's expression froze. He did not pretend to greet her again. He looked at Muh Yue and asked, "Did she tell you about me?"
"Yes. " Muh Yue answered firmly, but at the same time when Peng Yichen's face was filled with ecstasy, a basin of cold water was poured on him. "But every time she mentioned you, she would gnash her teeth. She was very regretful that she was blind back then and fell in love with you. "
Muh Yue said that it was painful, but when she saw that Peng Yichen's face was completely bloodless because of it, her heart ached. Her red lips opened and closed, and she added, But every time she mentioned you, she would grit her teeth and regret that she was blind back then and fell for you. "More often than not, it is crying. "
"Why should I cry?" Peng Yichen quickly asked.
Muh Yue felt uncomfortable seeing him so concerned.
She asked back with a sneer, "Why are you crying? You still want to ask me about this?"
Peng Yichen's face turned a few shades paler. He lowered his head and looked at his coffee that had been cold for a long time. His expression was gloomy. "It's all my fault. I shouldn't have left without saying goodbye back then. "
"Just because of this?" Muh Yue bit her lips tightly. "She's sad because you don't trust her? Why don't you listen to her explanation? Do you know how many shameless words you said when you asked your family to come and find her to cancel the engagement?"
" No, you don't know. " Muh Yue answered her own question, "Because you ran away like a coward and left behind a fart that you need to calm down for a period of time, letting Xiaowen bear those pressure and pain alone. Do you know that she was so desperate that she didn't want to live anymore?"
Muh Yue's face was full of tears. She felt that Xiaowen was not worth it in her heart. She also hated herself for seeing that this man was not responsible and why she still could not completely give up on him!
"I don't know, I don't know. I don't know anything. " Peng Yichen covered his face in pain and shook his head repeatedly. His words also choked up.
Muh Yue still had a lot of questions to ask him. Seeing him in such pain, Her red lips opened and closed, but in the end, she still did not say more hurtful words.
After a while, she said, "What's the use of being sad now? It is already too late. She, she's living very well right now, as long as you don't disturb her "
When Peng Yichen heard her, he looked at her with reddened eyes and asked, "She said that she's already married and has a child. Is that man the beast from back then? Where is the child? It is also that. . . "
That bastard's seed?
Peng Yichen did not finish his words. However, Muh Yue understood. He urgently looked at Muh Yue, wanting to know the answer from her.
If that was the case, then he would definitely not hand Yu Xiaowen over to that man. That beast should be punished on the spot. He was not worthy of happiness.
Peng Yichen's eyes flashed with determination.
"No, the child is, but not that man. "
"No?" Peng Yichen frowned and quickly asked, "Then who is it?"
Besides him now, who else would be willing to marry a woman who was pregnant before marriage?
Muh Yue felt troubled. "Sorry, I can't say that. "
Although Yu Xiaowen hid it from everyone, she did not hide the fact that Muh Yue was secretly married.
She wanted to get money from Yu family to treat Yu Tong's illness. She also repeatedly reminded herself not to tell anyone about her fake marriage.
There were no other consequences. What was important was that Yu Tong's illness could not be without the money.
"Why can't I say? What's there to hide?" Indeed, Peng Yichen was in hot pursuit.
Muh Yue could not lie to him, but she could not betray her good friend who had always trusted her. She shook her head and said firmly, "Don't ask me. I will not tell you. "
She thought about it and added sadly, "Peng Yichen, if you still have Xiaowen in your heart, please let her go. Don't try to invade her new life. You, you go and find a new life that belongs to you. Isn't it good? "
Peng Yichen shook his head. "I can't do it. "
Sure enough, Muh Yue tested him. " Then what do you want? She is married and has a child. "
"I don't know. " Peng Yichen honestly shook his head. He only knew that Yu Xiaowen could not belong to someone else so easily. He, what else could he do. . .
Muh Yue saw his slightly dazed look and could not say what she felt in her heart. There were mixed feelings, "You, why do you have to do this?"
Peng Yichen suddenly smiled at Muh Yue and said, "Muh Yue, thank you for telling me this. Don't worry. I am no longer the same me as before. I know what to do. "
He did not know why, but his question made Muh Yue nervous.
The two of them chatted for a while and the content of their conversation basically revolved around Yu Xiaowen's life these few years. Muh Yue deliberated and tried to pick up some unimportant content to say.
Time passed very quickly. Peng Yichen still wanted to treat Muh Yue to dinner but was rejected by Muh Yue. She had already said a lot today. With the excuse that something happened, the two of them directly separated at the coffee shop door and did not even let Peng Yichen send them off.
After Muh Yue returned home, she called Yu Xiaowen.
At that time, it was already time to get off work. The other colleagues all went out to have a gathering. Only Yu Xiaowen was working in the office alone.
She wanted to get Su Qiyang's interview done as soon as possible so that the company could make a small profit.
"What's wrong? Muh Yue, what's wrong? I'm working overtime? " Yu Xiaowen put her phone on her shoulder and tilted her head. Her eyes looked at the computer screen and her hands danced on the keyboard.
"Peng Yichen is looking for me today. " Muh Yue's voice was very low. She rarely had unhappy moments in front of outsiders.
Yu Xiaowen stopped her fingers and focused on answering her phone. She asked, "Him, why did he look for you?"
The last time she accidentally encountered Peng Yichen, she did not have the time to tell Muh Yue about it. She did not expect that he would take the initiative to find Muh Yue.
"He just asked you some questions about you. " Muh Yue cleared Qing Zi and reminded, "Xiaowen, I do not know what happened to Peng Yichen in the past few years abroad, but he seems to have changed when he comes back this time. He seems to have a strange obsession with you. He seems to want to have you again, whether you have it or not. "
"How could it be like this?" Yu Xiaowen trusted Muh Yue very much. If she reminded her so seriously, it definitely could not be wrong. But why was it like this?
She decided to find a time to have a good chat with Peng Yichen. She would not allow him to use her and his heart as an excuse to casually enter her life.
Regardless of whether or not the current life was what she truly wanted, it at least gave her the person she wanted to protect the most.
She couldn't let him destroy all of this! She couldn't!
Yu Xiaowen thought so and asked again, "Thank you, Muh Yue. I know what to do. But what about you? What do you do?"
" Let's talk about it later! " Muh Yue quickly ended the topic. There were some things that she was temporarily unable to have a deep conversation with her.
Yu Xiaowen understood, so she only softly said, "Okay!"
