Disagree? My husband has a mouth, there was no misunderstanding at all!

Chapter 5 Semi-transparent Shirt

Yan Zhuoyu slightly raised her chin, tucked her hair behind her ear, and was about to start criticizing Pei Weijin when she suddenly remembered that there was another person in the private room.

She paused for a moment, swallowing back all the words she had just prepared, which were inappropriate to say in front of outsiders.

Pei Weijin remained calm and composed, seemingly unaware of her emotional change. He simply made a few marks on the menu and asked, "What would you like to eat?"

"Iced Americano".

Yan Zhuoyu had just eaten breakfast, and in order to maintain her figure, she only ordered a drink with the lowest calories.

After placing the order, the only sound in the private room was Pei Weijin's light tapping on the keyboard. He wore a pair of silver-rimmed blue light blocking glasses and was working on unfinished tasks.

He was impeccably dressed, even his tie was tied perfectly, yet under the reflection of his glasses, he inexplicably gave off the impression of a refined scoundrel.

However, when he looked up, his distant and indifferent black eyes swept over him, and everything vanished. He remained the unapproachable business tycoon.

The private room was air-conditioned, but Pei Weijin casually took off his coat and draped it over the back of the chair. He then unbuttoned his cuffs, revealing a section of his healthy and supple forearm. Under the warm light, the pale blue veins looked like delicate textures, showcasing a unique masculine strength and beauty.

Yan Zhuoyu caught a glimpse of it out of the corner of her eye, and two words immediately popped into her mind.

Saobao.

She lowered her head, her slender fingers tapping the screen a few times, sending the recording to her agent for editing.

Qiao Xinyun was in a panic, afraid that the police would call her and ask her to go to the station to bail out her artist.

I finally breathed a sigh of relief after receiving news from Yan Zhuoyu.

[Received. I will immediately arrange for the public relations department to issue a statement to clarify.]

Yan Zhuoyu had barely typed a few words in reply when her phone notification bar was flooded with news alerts.

She raised an eyebrow, wondering if she had dominated the headlines of all the major browsers.

Although her name was all over the trending topics list, the top spot was unexpectedly taken by another person's apology statement.

Li Yunsheng apologizes

Yan Zhuoyu clicked on the trending topic with a hint of amusement.

Li Yunsheng is the female lead in "Spring Rain Love". She debuted at the same time as Yan Zhuoyu, but she has already become a popular young actress who has risen to the third tier.

If the female agent played by Yan Zhuoyu is the male lead's cinnabar mole, then the Jiangnan woman played by Li Yunsheng is the male lead's white moonlight.

When the official Weibo account first released behind-the-scenes footage, Yan Zhuoyu instantly won over many fans of the original novel with her beauty and suitability for the role, becoming far more popular than the two main characters.

Li Yunsheng was extremely dissatisfied with this. He tried to sabotage Yan Zhuoyu on set, but failed. So every time the official Weibo account promoted Yan Zhuoyu, he hired online trolls to smear her.

They either subtly mocked Yan Zhuoyu for having plastic surgery, or criticized her acting skills and dead fish eyes.

So, what is Li Yunsheng apologizing for?

[Xiao Li is also working hard today: I saw some fans worried that the online controversy would affect the broadcast of the drama "Spring Rain Love". As of now, I have not received any news about changes to the broadcast, so please rest assured that we will definitely meet on the screen as promised.]

Regarding the recent online rumors about Sister Yan being arrogant and disrespectful to her seniors, I would like to clarify that Sister Yan is simply straightforward and easygoing. She is actually a very nice person. On behalf of Zhuoyu and our entire team, I would like to express our sincerest apologies to everyone.

...]

His words conveyed innocence and magnanimity, as if he were truly thinking of Yan Zhuoyu's best interests.

The number of comments and likes was completely inconsistent with the popularity. She was all too familiar with this tactic. It was obvious that Li Yunsheng had bought the trending searches herself to create a naive and innocent persona and gain more fans.

Although it was purchased, it was very useful and quickly gained a large following of casual fans.

[Sobbing, I feel so sorry for my little pear, she was dragged into this innocently and yet she still kindly apologized for this kind of person!]

[I've ordered Yan Zhuoyu to get out of the entertainment industry! She hides away after everything goes wrong, leaving others to clean up her mess!]

[Shufen is now a hater! I was actually looking forward to Yan Zhuoyu's character, but she's a complete jerk both on and off screen! You think you deserve Li Yunsheng's apology? Have some shame!]

[Straightforward? Hah, these days being straightforward is used as a shield? Yan Zhuoyu, that's called being ill-mannered, don't tarnish those three words!]

Protecting the world's best pears!

Aside from casual fans spontaneously joining the comments at the beginning, afterwards it was all controlled by fans, with everyone saying "Protect the best pear in the world".

……

Yan Zhuoyu couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Pei Weijin paused in his typing and asked, "What's wrong? Why are you so happy?"

"It's nothing, I just watch my virtual pet to pass the time."

Yan Zhuoyu didn't even look up, and casually took a screenshot and sent it to her agent.

Pei Weijin sat opposite her, his brows furrowing slightly, once again experiencing the feeling of being ignored by his wife.

He closed the file and opened Google Search instead.

What is a digital pet?

Pei Weijin quickly found the answer, accurately identifying several key words among the dense text.

"Cultivation-type blogger", "entertainment tool", "source of joy"...

When the cursor is moved to the five blue-highlighted characters, it automatically redirects to a short video platform.

On the screen, a male anchor wearing cat ears and a semi-transparent shirt is flirting with a dreamy look.

Pei Weijin had just finished a meeting, and with the computer volume still on, upbeat music quickly filled the private room: "Macau Royal—"

Yan Zhuoyu finally looked up from her phone and watched the light blue glow from Pei Weijin's computer screen flicker on his face.

"Mr. Pei, what's going on...?"

Pei Weijin closed the laptop without changing his expression and handed it to Secretary Meng: "The computer has a virus. Take it to be repaired, and while you're at it, get rid of that inappropriate website."

As Pei's Group's top secretary, Secretary Meng possessed exceptional professional skills. Upon receiving the computer, she acted as if she were receiving a royal decree, her face serious: "Yes, Mr. Pei, I will contact the technical department to handle it immediately!"

After saying that, he hurriedly left with his laptop, bumping into the food delivery server.

Yan Zhuoyu stared at Pei Weijin with an indescribable look in her eyes. In broad daylight, he was watching a short video right in front of her.

After all that last night, are you still not relieved?

She looked down and sent a message to her agent.

[Resilient Little White Flower: I've collected all the information from those marketing accounts and online trolls who are attacking me, and I'm preparing to sue them.]

[Sister Qiao: OK]

After finishing her business, Yan Zhuoyu was about to pick up her iced Americano when she suddenly noticed a plate of sunflower chicken in front of her.

She took a sip of coffee, and the cold, bitter liquid made her feel much more refreshed.

"You have a sensitive stomach, why are you eating such greasy food?"

Pei Weijin picked up the serving chopsticks, slowly picked up a piece of the tenderest chicken, and placed it in the small bowl in front of her.

"Mrs. Pei sent me a message specifically saying that she wants to eat chicken tonight."

"For your health's sake, Mrs. Pei will have to make do with this chicken."

"???"

Yan Zhuoyu was no longer an innocent girl. When she recalled the blessing she had sent to Pei Weijin, she immediately realized the ambiguity in it.

This chicken is not that chicken.
