The next hour, Zhuo Yue was pinned down by Fang Mingyan on the desk, thoroughly discussing the issue of who should marry whom. Under the man’s skilful hands, his eyes welled up with arousal, and he was allowed to ejaculate until he finally cried and begged for mercy. Fang Mingyan knew he had been busy with work lately, so after a little training, he stopped his hands, took him to shower, and tucked him into bed wrapped in a soft, warm blanket.
The matter of signing the contract was over, and he never mentioned it again.
In the following days, both of them were very busy. Zhuo Yue’s new drama “So I Love You” in which he starred, was about to premiere nationwide, and he spent most of the month flying around for promotional activities. Fang Mingyan was busy acquiring a cutting-edge film and television company and had been working long hours. They could only stay in touch through phone calls. Sometimes, Zhuo Yue would send him text messages during breaks or short videos, sharing delicious food, fun things, beautiful scenes, and other small things that interested him, providing brief relaxation for Fang Mingyan’s tense and weary nerves.
Fenglan also extended a symbol of peace to that company, intending to compete with Huasheng, and the multi-party involvement made the acquisition process tumultuous. When the finalized proposal was eventually settled after repeated negotiations that night, it was already two o’clock in the morning. Fang Mingyan navigated past his secretary, who had fallen asleep on the desk, walked through the corridor, and brewed a cup of coffee in the pantry. The pantry’s mounted TV was still on, and an interview was being replayed inside. The camera switched to focus on the quiet man sitting next to the director as the host directed a question towards him.
He took the phone and smiled.
It was as if a warm breeze had sprung up out of nowhere, dyed with the fragrance of flowers and carrying the chirping of birds. It was clean, clear, beautiful and natural. He just spoke slowly, his warm lips opening and closing, and his black eyes shining brightly.
Fang Mingyan held the cup in one hand and put the other in his pocket. He looked at Zhuo Yue on the screen and gently curved the corners of his lips.
The secretary, who hurriedly jogged over, said with a frightened face, “Chairman Fang, if you want to drink coffee, just call me.”
“It’s okay. You can take a rest.” He finished his coffee and walked out. “It’s nice to come to the pantry once in a while, it puts you in a pleasant mood.”
The secretary looked at the pantry in confusion, then at his back in confusion, and scratched her head in confusion. What was there to enjoy about this place? Was the boss confused because he stayed up late?
After finishing the promotion of the new drama, Zhuo Yue saw the news that Huasheng successfully acquired the film and television company on the plane back to K City, and he laughed out loud with joy. Even though he was not around, Fang Mingyan rarely mentioned his hard work to him, but he could imagine the hard work the man put into it. He wanted to celebrate well, so after getting off the plane, he disguised himself and took Lin Hui to the mall to buy gifts.
He lowered the brim of his hat and wore sunglasses to avoid the crowd carefully. He then quietly slipped into Tower A of the Golden Eagle Building and went straight to the Montblanc counter. Zhuo Yue knew that Fang Mingyan was used to using this brand of signature pen, and he secretly hoped that men would think of him when using it. So he picked a limited edition model with a black base and silver stripes. He watched the clerk package it delicately and put it carefully in Lin Hui’s bag. Then, he happily went downstairs.
As luck would have it, when he walked out of the counter, he was recognised by several girls who came to shop. “Ah, my God! It’s Zhuo Yue!”
“Look, it’s Zhuo Yue himself!”
The girl’s screams and the gesture of taking out her mobile phone to take pictures and watch instantly attracted more people’s attention.
Zhuo Yue’s popularity has reached a new high after several dramas, and he would get into trouble if he exposed his identity in public. He took the pen handed over by one of the girls and whispered, “I’m here today for a private trip. Please don’t make any noise, okay?” Then he signed autographs for several girls and met their requests for photos. The girls were so excited that they nodded repeatedly.
However, things developed beyond his expectations. Apparently, one of the girls had uploaded a photo online. When Zhuo Yue and Lin Hui’s elevator arrived at the underground parking lot, they were blocked inside by a crowd of fans gathered at the entrance. The elevator, designed to hold eleven people, was overloaded, causing it to emit warning sounds. Lin Hui shouted, “Get out! If you keep pushing, there will be an accident!” while spreading his arms to shield Zhuo Yue. Those in front heard and tried to retreat, but those in the back continued to push forward. Zhuo Yue saw a girl near him being squeezed against the elevator door, her arm still outside, crying out in pain. He reached out to help her, but as soon as he did, it triggered a wave of excited screams. Several hands grabbed his arm, pulling it in different directions, making him lurch to one side. Panicked, he tried to pull his arm back, but the fans held on tightly, their nails digging into his flesh, causing sharp pain.
The scene was very chaotic for a while.
Fortunately, the building’s security personnel arrived in time to maintain order and disperse the gathered fans. They escorted Zhuo Yue to the VIP lounge and immediately called a doctor. Although there were no injuries, the scratches and bruises on his right arm were still very obvious. Zhuo Yue knew he couldn’t hide them, so he had to send a text message to Fang Mingyan, emphasizing that he was safe now and was not injured.
The reply came quickly.
“Go home, immediately.”
On the way back to Hanguan, Zhuo Yue felt very uneasy. When he stood in front of Fang Mingyan and was gazed at by those eyes as deep as the abyss, he lowered his head even more nervously. He secretly glanced at Lin Hui beside him, who was also stiff and did not even dare to take a breath.
Low air pressure throughout the house indicated that the homeowner was in an extremely bad mood. The man sat on the sofa and left them both alone for a while before slowly speaking, “Lin Hui, didn’t I say that all his itineraries must be reported to me?” There was a strong sense of oppression in his calm tone, which made him feel uncomfortable, and Zhuo Yue became nervous unconsciously.
“Yes, you did.” Lin Hui admitted guiltily, “Chairman Fang, it was my fault that I didn’t think well enough to take Yue ge to a public place, so he got hurt.”
“I forced him to go.” Seeing that he was taking all the blame on himself, Zhuo Yue couldn’t help but interject. But when he met Fang Mingyan’s gaze, he immediately lost a lot of confidence, and his voice became softer and softer, “I just wanted to buy something, but I didn’t expect to be recognised… I was wrong…” He said, like a radio that had run out of batteries, and then completely stopped talking. His eyes trembled, and he lowered his head.
“Are you finished?” The man looked at him calmly and asked.
Zhuo Yue nodded stiffly.
“Wait for me on the fourth floor.” The brief commanding tone carried a sense of oppression that could not be disobeyed. Zhuo Yue took a deep look at Lin Hui and went upstairs silently.
Fang Mingyan’s eyes slowly swept across Lin Hui, who was standing in front of him, and he said unhurriedly, “The reason why I put you next to him is because you have a very good character; you put artists first, you are responsible and… It’s very good that you have a brotherly relationship with him, but as an assistant, blindly obeying the artist’s inappropriate demands almost led to serious consequences,” he said with a frown. “And I will never allow him to keep a negligent assistant.”
Lin Hui’s heart trembled. In fact, he still felt waves of lingering fear. If today’s situation hadn’t been controlled in time, not only could Zhuo Yue’s arm have been scratched or even broken by the fans, but the elevator might also have collapsed from the excessive weight. Not anticipating these serious consequences was indeed his negligence. Bowing his head, he spoke with guilt, “Chairman Fang, I promise this won’t happen again. Could you please give me another chance?”
He couldn’t bear it. Zhuo Yue was truly an easygoing artist who had always been kind to him. Even on tough sets, he always made sure to save a portion of whatever he was eating for Lin Hui. When he heard that Lin Hui’s mother was in poor health, he specially asked someone to bring back traditional Chinese medicine from another place as a gift. Lin Hui was wholeheartedly devoted to him and absolutely did not want to work with any other artist. Therefore, his plea was sincere and earnest.
“I can give you a chance.” Fang Mingyan looked at him and said, “If you can give a reasonable explanation for bringing artists into public places without permission today.”
Lin Hui swallowed, glanced upstairs with some embarrassment, and said nothing.
The man smiled lightly, “I’ll give you a minute to think about it.”
In terms of psychological warfare, Lin Hui was no match for Fang Mingyan. When he was frightened, he panicked and silently recited “Yue ge, I’m sorry to you” three times, finally reluctantly admitting all the causes and consequences. While explaining, “The packaging box of the gift was crowded by fans, Yue ge asked me to re-wrap it tomorrow, so he asked me to hide it from you for the time being…” while taking out the crumpled gift from the bag.
Fang Mingyan took the cardboard box with a gentle warmth in his eyes.
He knew what was inside. Not long after the mall elevator blockage incident occurred, Fang Mingyan received a call from Tang Can and made a detailed report on when Zhuo Yue arrived at the mall, what he bought, and his injuries.
But he didn’t expect that this gift was meant for him.
The silver flower, carefully folded on the black outer packaging, had already fallen off, and the box was crushed and deformed, looking quite pitiful. He unwrapped it, held the pen in his hand for a moment, and said, “I’ll keep this. Make sure nothing like this ever happens again, understood?”
Lin Hui nodded hurriedly and said, “I will definitely put Yue ge’s safety first in the future.”
“How has Zhuo Yue’s schedule been arranged in the past two days?”
He took out his notebook and flipped through it, “Tomorrow afternoon, there’s an online interaction, then two days off, and after that…”
“Clear his schedule for the next three days.”
“Ah?” Lin Hui reacted and said immediately, “Then I will contact the website later to push back the schedule.” Then he asked cautiously, “These three days…”
The man glanced at him and said, “He will be staying here for those three days. You can go back.”
Lin Hui came to the door and stopped again. After holding it in for a long time, he blurted out a sentence, “Chairman Fang, Yue ge, he really likes you.”
“I know.” Fang Mingyan’s eyes felt a little warm. After sending Lin Hui away, he walked upstairs and opened the black door.
