Chapter 84 Part 2

Moreover, whether someone blew up wasn’t always about skill—luck and timing were crucial. Even if Ou Shengzhe learned his lesson and worked hard to reform, regaining his current momentum would be tough… That was why Lin Hang had tried so hard to salvage it.

He didn’t know if it was bad luck on his part or Ou Shengzhe’s misfortune… In any case, because of Ou Shengzhe’s trouble, he had been overwhelmed, which affected Chu Yi and ultimately drew in the big boss President Yu. That was something Lin Hang hadn’t anticipated.

“As for you… deduct one month’s salary. No next time.” Yu Qingxian glanced up at Lin Hang, dealing a blow but also offering a way out. “If you feel too busy, hire a few more assistants or reduce the number of artists under you. But you can’t delay their normal work. You’re a veteran in the industry—I believe you understand the consequences of tarnishing an artist’s reputation.”

Chu Yi’s matter wasn’t huge, but it wasn’t small either. If their relationship ever got exposed in the future, would the media write that Chu Yi was throwing his weight around because of his connections?

“Understood.” Lin Hang actually breathed a sigh of relief. For an agent of his stature, salary wasn’t a big deal. If President Yu had docked his bonus, that would’ve been fatal.

Lin Hang wasn’t stupid. The relationship between President Yu and Chu Yi was clearly unusually close—President Yu had personally stepped in to protect him as soon as he heard. This minor punishment was already lenient.

“Ah, Lin Hang, you’re already here? So early?” Chu Yi emerged from the bedroom wearing a matching set of blue pajamas. Seeing the unusual atmosphere between the two, he paused mid-yawn and raised an eyebrow.

Yu Qingxian quickly shot Lin Hang a look. Lin Hang caught on and laughed it off. “I was discussing a work issue with President Yu… It’s nothing. You go ahead and have breakfast with President Yu first.”

As for the matching pajamas, Lin Hang had gone numb to it.

Chu Yi didn’t suspect anything. He walked over and stood in front of Yu Qingxian. Just as Lin Hang wondered what he was doing, President Yu suddenly stood up and planted a kiss on his lips. “Morning.”

Chu Yi was satisfied. His peach-blossom eyes curved into smiles as he returned the kiss in kind. Then his gaze shifted downward. “What’s for breakfast… Drinking that stuff again?”

He took it upon himself to remove President Yu’s coffee. Glancing at the breakfast the assistant had set out, he grabbed a hot bag of peanut milk, poured it into a cup himself, and placed it in front of President Yu. “Drink this.”

Lin Hang’s eyelid twitched. He noticed the assistant nearby keeping his eyes on his nose and his nose on his heart, pretending not to see.

President Yu was also very obedient. Since Chu Yi told him not to drink black coffee, he really didn’t. He picked up the peanut milk and took a sip. Lin Hang clearly saw President Yu’s brow furrow almost imperceptibly—he clearly wasn’t satisfied with the taste of the peanut milk.

But he didn’t push it away. Instead, he drank several sips alongside his breakfast.

President Yu has fallen… Lin Hang couldn’t help but think.

In his mind, President Yu had always been a cold, emotionless work machine. Now he was acting like other executives, keeping a star under him.

No, it shouldn’t be called “keeping.” Chu Yi’s background was mysterious too, and between President Yu and Chu Yi, it was clearly President Yu who listened to Chu Yi more.

“Yi Ge.” Ouyang Yuyuan returned too. He sat down without ceremony and started snatching breakfast from Chu Yi and the others.

Seeing Ouyang Yuyuan shoveling shrimp dumplings into his mouth with such gusto, Chu Yi quickly picked out several and placed them on the plate in front of Yu Qingxian. “Eat quickly, or he’ll finish them all.”

“Yi Ge, how could you? I haven’t had breakfast either~~” Ouyang Yuyuan complained with cheeks stuffed full, putting on an aggrieved act. It was obvious he was teasing Chu Yi for being “blinded by love,” having eyes only for his cousin and none for his little admirer follower.

Chu Yi’s ear tips flushed slightly. He really was “blinded by love,” no denying it.

Yu Qingxian shot Ouyang Yuyuan a warning glance, stopping his teasing. He divided half the shrimp dumplings from his plate to Chu Yi. “Ignore him. He just has too little work and is bored.”

He’d dump more work on him later—increased load, no raise!

Ouyang Yuyuan: “QAQ…”

Looking at the shrimp dumplings President Yu had picked for him, Chu Yi felt delighted inside. He was someone with a partner who cared for him now!

He had no rule against talking while eating. As he picked up a shrimp dumpling to eat, he asked President Yu, “What’s your schedule today?”

Yu Qingxian cleared his throat lightly. “I’m going to Director Mo’s press conference. Da Qing Feng Yun is a production invested by Xingyao, so as the General Manager, I should go no matter what.”

Ouyang Yuyuan: Lying through his teeth. When have you ever gone to a TV drama press conference before?

Lin Hang: The General Manager has really fallen. Deigning to attend such an unimportant press conference? This has the vibe of “from then on, the king no longer attended morning court”?

But Chu Yi believed it. “Perfect then, we can go together… Uh, would it be bad if we show up together?”

He turned his inquiring gaze to Lin Hang. Yu Qingxian also paused his movements, his phoenix eyes coldly fixed on Lin Hang where Chu Yi couldn’t see.

Lin Hang: “…” Suddenly under immense pressure!

President Yu, I really misjudged you. So this is how you are!
