Chapter 214: 214 Listen to My Excuses
When Boss Yan saw someone posting about his girlfriend on social media during his late-night office hours, he immediately took a screenshot and sent it to the lady, confronting her with: “Wearing pajamas to send to Tang Ze, huh? Now the whole world has seen it?”
Boss Shi: “Hear me out, it’s just a back shot, Boss Yan. What’s important is the artistic vibe of the photo. You should be proud of your girlfriend’s hard efforts.”
Could Boss Yan not know that the lady was setting the stage for Boss A’s current situation?
But he remained unsatisfied.
Boss Yan: “Tang Ze is your colleague. You send him your pajama shots, so does that mean you can send me ones in just lingerie?”

Shi Lan: “Boss Yan, are you trying to break up with me?”
Boss Yan: “I’m jealous and need some pampering.”
Boss Shi burst into silent laughter and continued: “Uncle Yan, I even took swimsuit photos for Glory last time, and you didn’t say a thing then.”
Boss Yan: “Right, you let others take pictures of you in a swimsuit. Why can’t you send me private ones?”
What does it mean to dig your own grave? This is it…
Boss Shi suddenly felt that jealous men could really be quite childish, even to the point of being off-putting.
Seeing that Shi Lan hadn’t replied, Boss Yan added: “Just kidding. Go to sleep.”
By now Shi Lan had figured out Boss Yan’s ways, plus his reserved and sultry nature, he usually spoke very sensibly when he was upset.
She didn’t really want to indulge him because, to her, it was a minor issue and she felt the guy was making a mountain out of a molehill.
So now she found herself in a dilemma, feeling at a loss whether to coddle him and feel taken advantage of, or not do so and be unable to sleep.
If it weren’t for the fact that they were tens of kilometers apart, she would have really liked to grab him and give him a good beating.
Finally, Boss Shi very reluctantly took a front-facing photo in her pajamas and sent it over: “I’m already pretty old, and if you keep being this petty, anyone who wants can have you.”
Boss Yan leaned back in his chair, looked at the lady’s photo, and finally smiled. With a light flick of his forefinger, the photo entered his private album.
His lady was becoming cuter by the day.
…
The next day was another intense day of shoots, further delayed by Chen Beini and Gu Chengyu attending the interview as the drama’s couple, pushing Shi Lan’s night scene close to 9:30 PM.
She and Boss Yan had agreed on ten, but given makeup removal and travel time, half an hour just wasn’t enough. So she sent a WeChat message to Shi Xiu, asking him to have a good “chat” with the Huahai folks first.
Shi Xiu told her to take her time and not to rush, as he was also eager to hear firsthand from the Yilong crowd just how much they disapproved of his girlfriend.
Shi Xiu, a new elite of Yancheng, not only had notable abilities himself but also inherited 40% of his late wife’s fortune, making him financially a challenge too big for Yilong to confront directly. Thus, after they scheduled the meeting, Yilong’s CEO brought along Vice CEO Qin and arrived at the hotel half an hour early, waiting.
However, in Vice CEO Qin’s eyes, twenty-eight-year-old Shi Xiu was just a lucky young man who had benefitted massively from his dead wife’s good fortune.
Back when Shi Lan was alive, this Yan surname wouldn’t have had an easy life—plainly speaking, he was just a canary kept by a wealthy woman.
But now, having transformed overnight into the soon-to-be chairman of Shuangshi Group, his luck was indeed enviable.
“If I were twenty years younger, maybe I could have competed for that wealthy woman too.”
While waiting for Shi Xiu, the two joked around.
