Chapter 563: Chapter 537: Xiao Qiang and Going Home
A week later, Shi Touyu moved into her own house. Although there was still some time before her graduation and marriage, she moved in earlier because her internship was closer to that area.
Second Brother returned from the airshow, Da Yi no longer needed to daydream and giggle, and directly packed her things to go to Second Brother’s place. It was said that they wouldn’t be back for a few days.
Xiao Qian thought about going back to her cold empty house after work, and while doing her radio show, she put in even more effort on her doodles.
The director saw Meiwei’s increasingly aggressive doodles during the past few days and couldn’t help but sympathize with the audience waiting for the hotline.
Before transferring the call to Meiwei, the director would filter the audience’s questions, giving the hostess an initial summary on paper so she can mentally prepare ahead of time and avoid discussing topics not allowed by higher-ups during the live broadcast.
Meiwei never used the director’s notes, as she was quick-witted and able to think on her feet. However, the director was used to this workflow, so she still habitually recorded the notes even if Meiwei didn’t use them.
The next caller was a mistress who wanted to complain about the man not divorcing his original wife. Encountering such an issue with skewed values while Meiwei was in a bad mood, it was obvious that she’d be criticized heavily.
The director watched as Meiwei impatiently drew on the paper with even more vigor, and then connected the doomed hotline.
Xiao Qian heard the caller crying on the other end.
“Meiwei, I’ve been feeling really bad lately. I’ve been mistreated… He promised to marry me, but why won’t he divorce that fat and old woman? Boo hoo hoo…”
Damn it, Yu Minglang left saying he would come back and take me swimming. But it’s been almost a month now! If he doesn’t come back soon, the seawater will turn cold! I’d rather believe in ghosts than the lies of men!
Xiao Qian’s inner self ranted.
“He won’t answer my calls or reply to my texts. What should I do?” The caller cried as if she had lost her entire world.
“He promised me, he said he’d divorce her! He guaranteed he doesn’t love his wife at all. That woman doesn’t understand him, doesn’t love him and can’t give him anything. But I love him, I love him!”
Xiao Qian occasionally hummed, indicating that she was still listening.
“He promised me he would divorce her, but now I can’t contact him. When I confronted his wife, she furiously accused me of wrongdoing. She’s so cruel! How could she treat me like this? I have the right to love and express my love! If she can’t meet my standards, I have the right to criticize her! How can she even be his wife if she can’t handle this?! I have the right to make demands since I’ve given so much!”
The caller didn’t wait for Xiao Qian’s reply and called out her stage name twice.
The director signaled ‘5’ to Xiao Qian, indicating that the talk time for this caller was up and according to the rules, should be cut off after 3 minutes. However, Meiwei didn’t signal, so the director hesitated to decide whether to move on to the next caller or finish answering this one first.
Did Meiwei smile?
The director felt her heart skip a beat.
As a woman herself, the director was stunned by Meiwei’s smile.
She finally understood the phrase “A smile so enchanting that it could create a hundred charms.” Although Meiwei occasionally gave her colleagues a polite and light smile, it was completely different from the one she showed now.
This smile was genuine, as if it came from the bottom of her heart. With her delicate features, this smile truly made one’s heart bloom, and it even carried a fruity fragrance – huh, a fragrance?!
The director followed the scent and turned around, only to be startled.
A man was standing behind her, who seemed to have appeared out of nowhere.
He was a very tall and handsome man.
He wore a black short-sleeved T-shirt with a discreet Prada logo on the chest, which subtly conveyed its high value. His long legs were wrapped in jeans from the same brand, and he carried a bag with two cups of freshly squeezed fruit juice.
The fruity scent came from the bag – one cup was lemon juice, and the other was red watermelon juice.
“How did you get in here?!” The director was startled to see someone entering.
Due to the popularity of the “Soul Code” program, Meiwei had a lot of fans, and many wanted to see her in person. The management had specifically instructed that during Meiwei’s live broadcast, everyone entering the studio had to go through strict screening.
Could this be another fan who managed to break in?
“Beautiful lady, I am Xiao Mei’s fiancé.” Yu Minglang put the lemon juice on the director’s table.
He showed Xiao Qian the other cup of watermelon juice, and as she looked at him, she couldn’t help but reveal a knowing smile. Seeing the red juice, her cheeks flushed slightly.
Purity had been assigned a different meaning to this innocent fruit by her and Yu Minglang.
Although the curve of her smile was slight, a single glance at him made it feel as if the whole world was blooming like flowers, and her mood instantly changed from gloomy to sunny.
The director immediately understood the situation after seeing how the two interacted. The cold beauty Meiwei only showed that expression when she saw her fiancé.
That beautiful smile wasn’t for herself, but for the man behind her.
This was indeed an enchanting match made in heaven – an aloof goddess paired with a domineering god.
However, the director couldn’t help but wonder what kind of career Meiwei’s fiancé had.
His short-sleeved T-shirt clearly revealed his firm muscles, the enchanting lines of a man’s arm, full of strength and beauty – not like a regular white-collar worker or civil servant. But what career could boast both muscle and poise?
The director was so dazzled by Yu Minglang’s appeal that she forgot to consider one important question: How could he casually stroll past the strict guard, carrying two cups of juice, and appear here so openly?
For him, it was a trivial task. Yu Minglang’s first task after returning was to see his lovely Xiao Mei~
He could’ve easily waited outside, but he didn’t want to!
He wanted her to see him as soon as possible.
Yu Minglang’s surprise appearance instantly lifted Xiao Qian’s heavy heart. She made a ‘wait a moment’ gesture, then turned her attention back to the troubled caller.
Others in the audience could only hear her voice and not see their interaction, so they were curious.
Why did Meiwei spend an unusually long time on this call? Wasn’t a 3-minute limit mentioned? It’s been 2 times the 3-minute limit already.
“I understand the caller’s question, but I don’t want to give a direct answer for now. Today, I would like to add an interaction segment between listeners. We will take a short commercial break, and after the ad, we will transfer another listener’s call to have them answer your question.”
Xiao Qian cut to the advertisement and then stepped out of the studio.
As she opened the door, Yu Minglang immediately hugged her. It felt like a long time since they last met. The last time he saw her, she was wearing long sleeves, but now it was summer. Yu Minglang spun her around with a hug, then pecked her lips. “Baby, I’m back~”
