Chapter 29.1: His Heart

The studio vigorously started the shoot.
Although it was already considered off-duty time, everyone was very motivated.
There were even some people who didn’t even need to stay, they stayed to work for Bai Yi. 

The over three hours of shooting went smoothly.
In the middle, Bai Yi also took a group photo at everyone’s request.

After it ended…

“Wait.” When Bai Yi and his staff walked out of the studio, Cen Ning chased after them.

Bai Yi knew that she had a question to ask him, so he stopped and said kindly, “Cen Ning, it’s a pleasure to work with you.
I hope to see you again next time.”

Cen Ning was distracted from the busy work just now but was not distracted anymore.
“I’m sorry, although I appreciate your help, I still have a question to ask… I… I don’t seem to know you.”

Bai Yi laughed loudly.
“We don’t know each other.”

Cen Ning looked at the backs of the group as they walked away and fell into contemplation.

How did Xin Zechuan know? Was it because of Tang Zheng?

Most likely, it was because when Zhang Ziyi asked Tang Zheng for Meng Peiyan’s number, she must have made this matter clear.

Cen Ning wrinkled her eyebrows.
Why has she interacted with Xin Zechuan so much recently? She also saw him directly in President Yang’s office last time, and… Since that time, her superiors have also taken special care of her.

These were not accidents.

But she knew that her relationship with Xin Zechuan wasn’t good enough to make him pay so much attention to her.
So after deliberating about it, the only possibility was… Yan Xingzhi.

After the filming was over, there was a non-stop editing process.
Cen Ning did not dare to leave the computer for a moment, for fear of the photos disappearing again like last time.
But it was already dark out, and she would arouse Wei Pinfang’s suspicion if she didn’t go back.

After thinking about it, again and again, Cen Ning called Yan Xingzhi.

“Hello.” His voice sounded through the phone, slightly heavy, like sake that had been fermented for many years.

Cen Ning lowered her voice.
“I’m Cen Ning.”

“I know.” Yan Xingzhi asked, “Has everything been resolved?”

Cen Ning paused for a moment.
“It was because of you, you asked Bai Yi to come?”

Yan Xingzhi: “I don’t know who he is.
Zechuan chose him.”

Cen Ning: “Then, did you ask Xin Zechuan to come here to do anything…?”

“Do what?”

Cen Ning: “…”

He had a calm tone as if he had done nothing.
However, Cen Ning couldn’t ask “Did you ask Xin Zechuan to come to my company and ask my boss to take more care of me?” Because if he didn’t, then this would seem narcissistic.

She was hesitating when suddenly the person over the receiver said, “Cen Ning, you seem to be afraid of bothering me.”

Cen Ning pursed her lips.
“… No.”

“No? Then why didn’t you tell me when something wrong happened, and I had to be informed by others?”

This “others” probably refers to Tang Zheng.

Cen Ning was speechless.
But when she considered it, she didn’t seem to have anything to defend herself with, because what he said was a fact.
She did subconsciously avoid him because she felt that asking him to do anything would make her seem useless.

Cen Ning’s silence made Yan Xingzhi a little irritable, so when he spoke, his tone seemed cold and hard.
“It’s not to be repeated.”

As soon as Cen Ning heard his tone, she was cowardly.
Could he not be fierce…

“Did you hear?”

Cen Ning lowered her head like a child who did something wrong.
“Oh.”

Yan Xingzhi’s expression on the other end of the phone softened.
“Why did you call originally?”

After his reminder, Cen Ning suddenly remembered her original purpose.
“Ah… I want to ask you when you will go back tonight.”

Yan Xingzhi: “Not sure… What’s wrong?”

“Can you tell my mother that I’m with you… I can’t leave my company right now.
I’m afraid I’ll be late when I go back and my mother will be suspicious.
If you call, my mother will not question anything.
“

Yan Xingzhi raised the corners of his lips silently.
“Oh, you know how to lie now?”

Cen Ning’s face flushed instantly.
“This doesn’t count…”

“Okay, I’ll make a call later.
How long will you be there?”

“Maybe another hour or two.”

“Got it.”

“Thank you Xingzhi Gege.”

“Mhm.”

…

The night was shrouded in darkness, and the long road seemed unusually quiet.

After hanging up the phone, Yan Xingzhi sat in the car for a while, looking at the seemingly endless darkness in front of the window, and smiled lightly.

He tapped lightly with his fingers holding the steering wheel and suddenly wondered.
Since when did her “Xingzhi Gege” call cause such a strange enjoyment?’

Studio, 10 p.m.

At this time, most of the company’s employees had left.
Only two or three shooting areas were still brightly lit.
There still seemed to be some busy people inside.

“Hey, I just saw a handsome guy at the door!” The colleague who came in with a few cups of coffee suddenly exclaimed excitedly.

Another colleague smiled and replied, “I’ve already seen my most handsome male god Bai Yi today.
Don’t tell me about other handsome guys now.
Those are not worth mentioning anymore.”

“Be quiet! The one outside is handsome! It’s different from Bai Yi’s style, but I like this one more!!”

“Is it true?” A colleague that overheard was curious and stuck her head out.

“It’s true! Do you dare to come and go with me to look? If he is not more handsome than Bai Yi, I will treat you to a meal!”

“Yo! It’s not easy for a stingy person like you to treat people.
Let’s have a look.”

The two young employees playfully pushed and shoved each other as they ran out to take a peek.
After they went out, they saw a tall and handsome man standing in the corridor.

“How is he? Are you going to treat me?”

“F*ck… yes!”

“Hey, I said he’s handsome-“

The two were muttering to each other, and at this moment, the man standing in the corridor suddenly turned to look at them.

Man: “Hello.”

“…”
