Lin Zhen's phone call pulled Xu Wei back from her dazed state. After she hung up the phone, she realized that she was curled up in Cheng Xianzhi's arms.

The man's big, broad hands patted her from time to time, as if he was coaxing a child.

Noticing the gaze of the person in his arms, Cheng Xianzhi lowered his head slightly and asked softly, "Are you feeling better?"

Xu Wei nodded blankly, her ears feeling like they were burning.

The distance between her and Cheng Xianzhi was too close, so close that it made her feel uneasy.

The person in his arms pulled away, Cheng Xianzhi adjusted his sitting position, and the girl's hoarse, soft voice rang out in his ear, "Thank you."

Cheng Xianzhi didn't say anything and handed over a bottle of opened water.

In a calm voice, he directed the special assistant sitting in the front, "Go and find out who is behind this incident and who is fanning the flames online."

After crying for a while, Xu Wei easily drank half a bottle of water.

"No need."

Xu Wei blurted out that she had already troubled Cheng Xianzhi a lot and she didn't want to owe him too much.

Hearing this, Cheng Xianzhi glanced over and asked, "Don't you want to investigate Xiao Lan?"

"Xiao Lan..." Xu Wei murmured.

A woman's name.

Xu Wei quickly thought of the woman she met that night, but Xu Qurang had not yet sent her the findings, so how could Cheng Xianzhi know?

Cheng Xianzhi noticed the changing expressions on Xu Wei's face. "Xiao Lan has some connections in Beijing. Most people will give her some respect."

He hadn't finished speaking.

Xu Wei tilted her head and happened to meet Cheng Xianzhi's secretive eyes, and her heart trembled unconsciously.

She opened her mouth and spoke without thinking, "Then...will you give her face?"

Cheng Xianzhi stared at her and smiled silently.

He said, "Do you think I'm the kind of person who helps outsiders but not my wife?"

Xu Wei was speechless.

Suddenly I felt that I was judging others by my own standards.

"Boom-"

The co-pilot's assistant's cell phone fell and hit the car door, making a crisp sound.

He bent down hurriedly, his inner drama about to explode.

The boss is getting married!!!

When did his boss get married?!

So the person he just complained about was actually the boss lady?

Although he was shocked, he was glad that he had not said anything bad about the boss's wife.

Cheng Xianzhi raised his eyelids and looked at the person in front of him. His tone was still gentle, and no other emotions could be heard.

"Xiao Lan, it's not yet time for me to give her face."

Xu Wei cautiously glanced at Cheng Xianzhi and was slightly relieved to see that he still looked calm.

Now the IQ that had been away has returned.

Xiao Lan, I have never heard of this person as far as I can remember.

The Cheng family is one of the top families in Beijing, so they really don't need to give face to anyone.

......

It was less than six o'clock when we arrived at Lishui Bay.

Auntie was preparing dinner in the kitchen. Cheng Xianzhi, who had been on a flight for more than ten hours, went upstairs first to wash up.

Xu Wei was sitting in the living room, checking out the online news about Zhou Min's suicide.

Looking back at the attitudes of netizens a few days ago, there has been a drastic change.

Many people criticized Zhou Min for taking advantage of the public's sympathy and distorting the facts, and some went to Chen Xinyi's Weibo to apologize.

Of course, there are still people who want to blame the incident on Xu Wei and want to go to her Weibo to make trouble, but they find that once her name is linked to related terms such as "Zhou Min" and "jumping off a building", it will be automatically blocked by the software.

Not long after, Xu Wei received a call from Chen Xinyi who was waiting for news at home.

Although Chen Xinyi did not go to the scene, there are many videos posted online by people who were there. She probably has some understanding of what happened and what Zhou Min said on the rooftop.

Her voice trembled a little through the phone, "Sister Xiaoyue, Zhou Min..."

"She fell on the air cushion and was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment. Sister Lin is watching over this matter, don't worry."

The other party was uneasy.

After all, she was still a young girl who had not yet entered society. It was her first time encountering such a serious matter as a life, so it was inevitable that she would panic.

Xu Wei crumpled the tissue in her hand and comforted her, "Xinyi, you don't need to blame yourself too much for this matter. There is a cause and an effect. This is Zhou Min's own decision. If someone comes to your house, you should cooperate with the investigation and go back to school as soon as possible. You still have a long life ahead of you."

"Okay..." After a pause, the other party said, "Sister Xiaoyue, you too, don't worry about what those people say online. We have a clear conscience."

After hanging up the phone, the tissue was crumpled by her.

After hanging up the phone, I checked her social media account on my phone. As expected, the number of messages in the background was still 99+.

After a quick glance, it was no surprise that the most popular comments under her latest Weibo post were still malicious comments from haters.

Xu Wei was so absorbed in staring that she didn't notice Cheng Xianzhi finished his shower and went downstairs early.

"Just now I saw you were giving advice to others and making clear your opinions, but how come you are stuck when it comes to yourself?"

Xu Wei was startled as a tall shadow fell beside her, blocking most of the light above her head.

The man changed his style and put on a pure white home T-shirt and a pair of gray casual trousers. His hair was still wet with moisture and one hand in his pocket. He looked like a male college student who had not yet graduated.

This outfit made Xu Wei's eyes light up.

Cheng Xianzhi looks so good no matter whether he is wearing formal or casual clothes.

The man's eyes fell on the glowing screen in Xu Wei's hand. Noticing Xu Wei's wandering mind, the man reached out and took the phone, then pulled her towards the restaurant.

When Xu Wei came to her senses, she was already pressed down on a chair by Cheng Xianzhi.

Cheng Xianzhi held the soup spoon in his bony hands and scooped two large spoonfuls into the bowl, then placed it gently in front of Xu Wei. "I'll have someone finish this matter. You don't have to worry about it. Just do what you need to do."

Xu Wei stirred the soup in the bowl and looked up at Cheng Xianzhi from time to time.

He's so nice.

So good that she seemed to have a crush on him.

Xu Wei's gaze was too intense, Cheng Xianzhi couldn't help but rub her head with his hand and said in a deep voice: "Eat well."

Realizing her feelings for Cheng Xianzhi, she felt a little secretly delighted by such actions.

She suppressed the little excitement on the corners of her mouth, lowered her head and said "oh".

After dinner, Cheng Xianzhi went straight into the study.

After washing up, Xu Wei sat on the bed holding her doll pillow, her eyes rolling around as she listened carefully to the noise outside the concierge.

For two hours, there was no movement outside the door.

It is indeed very busy.

He should have gone directly to the company after getting off the plane, but probably because of her matter, he had to change routes, so he had to run to the study room late at night to continue working overtime.

Doesn't this also show that her affairs can be compared with work?

As she was thinking, Xu Wei closed her eyes, hugged the doll, and fell asleep.

When I woke up, it was bright outside, the ground was wet, and the branches of the ball flowers in the yard were bent and wilted.

I thought about the heavy rain that was about to fall yesterday afternoon, and it still came with the wind in the middle of the night, taking away a trace of melancholy.
