Chapter 74 Insincere

In the early morning newspapers, Baishi's press release was finally published, and the TV news also began to follow up and report on the matter.The media from all walks of life called one after another, requesting to interview the relevant person in charge of Baishi.So far, Baishi's negative image has begun to be reversed.

Ironically, however, such a result did not depend entirely on the efforts of Wu Ruoyang and his colleagues. What really played a key role was Ye Zonglin's words.

When it was off-duty time, the colleagues in the planning department finally clocked in and left the company without having to work overtime.

Wu Ruoyang called Pan Lin from the TV station and made an appointment for dinner.In addition to eating, there is KTV in the second half.Although I convinced the director yesterday, the program team also needs to take care of it.

After putting down the phone, Wu Ruoyang came to the bathroom.Facing the mirror, she slowly removed the Band-Aid on her forehead. The wound had almost healed, but whenever she felt agitated, she couldn't help reaching out to grab it. Every time she scratched it, she grinned in pain, so she had to stick it again. On a new piece.

What Ye Zonglin said in the ward that day still echoed clearly in his ears: "Xiaohan will be the successor of Huacai Media, how far do you think you can go?"

"I don't look down on you, I just don't want her to walk such a hard road in the future. Do you understand what I mean?"

Wu Ruoyang looked at this tired face in the mirror for a long time, smiled at himself mockingly, and muttered to himself: "Mr. Ye is right, you can't give her the best future."

Wu Ruoyang came to the reserved restaurant ahead of time, and after a short wait, Pan Lin arrived with the main creators of the column group.This capable and elegant host is also a column producer, editor, and writer at a young age. He can be described as a truly capable media person.

"Manager Wu, I've heard of you for a long time." Pan Lin greeted her with a smile as soon as she entered the private room.

Wu Ruoyang got up and shook hands with her. "Teacher Pan."

Pan Lin smiled helplessly: "Why are you so alien? We seem to be about the same age."

Wu Ruoyang smiled and said: "Teacher Pan is a famous pillar, how can I break the rules?"

Pan Lin looked at Wu Ruoyang with a smile, and then introduced her colleagues one by one.

During the meeting, Wu Ruoyang briefly explained to Pan Lin her vision for this special report on Baishi, and Pan Lin just smiled and nodded without raising any objections.

"I'll sort out the content planning of the topic later, and we'll talk about it in detail then."

"Alright." Wu Ruoyang nodded, seeing that the other party didn't intend to talk more, so he had no choice but to stop bringing up the matter wisely.

She knew that as long as she established a good cooperative relationship with Pan Lin's column group this time, Baishi would have many opportunities to show her face in the "Property Market Focus" column in the future.Therefore, tonight's task, on the surface, is to discuss the content of the topic with the column team, but in essence, it is to entertain the column team with good food and drink, and to make good connections, so that the matter can be successfully completed.

At the dinner table, the topics of various topics were never interrupted. Pan Lin always guided the direction of the topics, and her colleagues were obviously used to discussing around her ideas.Only Wu Ruoyang seemed to be in high spirits, but in fact he was absent-minded.

Wu Ruoyang felt a little more relaxed when she moved to KTV. When the music played, the atmosphere in the private room was activated, and everyone's attention was focused on grabbing wheat, drinking, chatting, and eating snacks. She was finally able to hide in the Have a few drinks alone in the corner.

However, not long after, Pan Lin came to sit beside her with a glass of wine and sat down, slowly looking at her with a slightly tipsy smile.

"Teacher Pan, what advice do you have?" Wu Ruoyang asked.

"Can't you change your address?" Pan Lin tilted her head slightly, her gaze became a little hazy, "I remember you are two years older than Miss Liang, so you should be the same age as me."

Wu Ruoyang smiled helplessly, Pan Lin knew Liang Yutong's age so well, and the well-informed level of these media people was really unexpected sometimes.

Pan Lin took a sip of her wine and looked at Wu Ruoyang meaningfully. "Then you...do you have a girlfriend now?"

"Yes." Wu Ruoyang nodded, took his own glass and drank the wine in one gulp.

Pan Lin seemed a little disappointed. She sat silently for a while, then glanced at Wu Ruoyang's wine glass, and said, "You still drink like this when you have a girlfriend?"

Wu Ruoyang didn't seem to hear, and continued to take the wine bottle and refill it for himself.

"Is it awkward?" Pan Lin carefully observed Wu Ruoyang's expression, "Or..."

Wu Ruoyang didn't answer, just smiled, picked up the wine glass and played with it in his hand.

On the highway entering the city, a Mercedes-Benz commercial vehicle was driving towards the city.The car was very quiet, and Ye Han sat in the back row, looking through the window at the night sky illuminated by lights over the city.

She took out her mobile phone and dialed Wu Ruoyang's number nervously.As soon as the phone was connected, I heard loud music on the other end, mixed with messy and noisy laughter and cheers.

"Are you having a party tonight?" Ye Han asked.

Wu Ruoyang replied lightly: "Yes."

"Then I..." Ye Han was a little hesitant, but the excitement and longing in his heart couldn't be restrained at all, "I'm on my way to the city, and my dad finally let me see you."

The other end of the phone paused for two seconds before asking, "Really?"

Ye Han responded with a smile, and asked again: "Where are you? I'm here to find you."

"It's so late, you better not come here."

Ye Han froze, sat for a while, and then said: "Don't you want to see me at all?"

The harsh music on the phone lasted for a while before Wu Ruoyang reported the address to Ye Han.

The car went straight to the KTV where Wu Ruoyang was. Ye Han raised his hand and pulled up the necklace on his neck. On the dangling crystal pendant, the word "Esther" shone with lavender light.She held the pendant in her hands, closed her eyes and shook her head vigorously, trying to drive away the worry and anxiety in her heart.

An hour later, the car finally arrived at its destination.Ye Han asked the driver to park the car far across the street, then walked to the door of KTV alone, and called Wu Ruoyang.

The autumn night wind was chilling, Ye Han stood in the corner by the gate, wrapping his coat tightly.After waiting for a long time, I heard footsteps in the hall gradually approaching the door.

When Ye Han saw Wu Ruoyang, he immediately gave up the idea of ​​going up to hug her, because there was another person clinging tightly beside her.

Wu Ruoyang seemed to have drunk a lot of wine, her cheeks were flushed, and her eyes were a little distracted.Pan Lin was standing on the left side of Wu Ruoyang with a small leather bag on her shoulders, carefully holding her arm to the door, and took the car keys from the parking officer.She glanced at Ye Han, then deliberately reached out to turn up Wu Ruoyang's collar.

The three of them stood awkwardly outside the door for a while, Pan Lin smiled and said to Wu Ruoyang, "You guys talk, I'll get in the car and wait for you."

"No need." Wu Ruoyang said lightly, then looked up at Ye Han.

Ye Han's mind was numb, and he was trying to distinguish whether the scene in front of him was a hallucination.

Wu Ruoyang said to her expressionlessly: "It's late, you should go back."

Ye Han stared fixedly at Wu Ruoyang, took a long time to adjust his breathing, and said in a pleading tone: "Don't you have anything to say to me?"

Wu Ruoyang lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment, then slowly said: "You'd better...go back with your parents."

Ye Han's brows trembled slightly, and he choked up and asked, "Did you forget what you said?"

"Just pretend I didn't say it." After Wu Ruoyang finished speaking, she glanced at Pan Lin, then put her arm around her hand and walked towards the street.

"Wu Ruoyang!" Ye Han gasped for breath, with tears in his eyes, "Turn around and look at me! I want you to look into my eyes and say it again!"

Pan Lin turned her head to look at Ye Han first, and then glanced at Wu Ruoyang. Feeling uncomfortable for a moment, she had to let go of Wu Ruoyang's arm and said, "I'll wait for you in the car." After speaking, she turned and walked towards the road that had stopped side car.

Wu Ruoyang stood with her back to Ye Han for a long time before turning around and smiling at her: "You know, I... I'm used to living a free life, and I don't like too much restraint."

Ye Han gritted his teeth and stared at her closely, his tightly pursed lips were still trembling.

"I really think...we are not suitable, so don't force me anymore." After Wu Ruoyang said this, he turned around and walked towards Pan Lin's car without looking back.

Ye Han stared blankly at Wu Ruoyang's leaving back, unable to say a word, even the tears seemed to be frozen in the bottom of his heart, and he had no strength to come out.

Wu Ruoyang sat in the car, leaned his head back on the chair, closed his eyes and stopped talking.

Pan Lin sat aside and looked at her silently for a while, then started the car and stepped on the accelerator, and said with a bit of disdain: "You obviously care so much, why do you want to dump her?"

Wu Ruoyang covered his face with his hands, and said silently in his heart: "It's because I care..."

Pan Lin stared ahead and drove the car without saying a word. After a long time, she shook her head with a wry smile.It wasn't until the car drove several blocks that she suddenly came back to her senses: "By the way, you haven't said where you live yet."

Only then did Wu Ruoyang slowly open his eyes, and said weakly: "Stop in front."

Pan Lin turned her head to look at Wu Ruoyang, and had no choice but to pull over the car.

Wu Ruoyang opened the car door, turned around and said to Pan Lin, "Thank you for your help, I will leave this topic to you."

Pan Lin smiled helplessly, and didn't look at Wu Ruoyang again, she just responded, "It's a little effort, Manager Wu."

Wu Ruoyang got out of the car and walked slowly along the deserted street.Pan Lin's car stopped on the side of the road for a while, then turned back onto the main road and drove away from the street quickly.

Wu Ruoyang didn't drink too much tonight, but the recent exhaustion and exhaustion made her occasionally feel dizzy.But no amount of hard work could break her down. What made her unable to face the most was Ye Han's teary eyes.

Her mind was full of Ye Han who was standing alone in the corner just now, Wu Ruoyang seemed to have a knife turning and stirring in her heart. At that moment, she just wished she could rush forward immediately and kill that heartbroken figure. He hugged her in his arms and healed her wounds all over her body.But he was also afraid that the calmness he had pretended with great difficulty would be shattered in an instant, and his previous efforts would be wasted.

Wu Ruoyang raised his hand and touched the band-aid on his forehead, but the wound was still aching.Looking up at the black sky with billowing clouds, she suddenly laughed, feeling that she was the smallest and most helpless person in the world.

"She can do just fine without me. So can I...so can I, and so can I..."

She stepped on the sidewalk step by step, counting the floor tiles one by one.When she counted to the point where she forgot the number, she took out her mobile phone and dialed Fang Nan's number: "Mom, what are you doing? Have you had breakfast yet?"

The familiar voice on the other end of the phone made her feel warmer, but the cold wind in the middle of the night still reminded her of the cruelty of reality.

While fighting against the clear pain in his mind, Wu Ruoyang forced himself to raise the corners of his mouth and spread out a smile. "Watching TV? What program?"

"This one, I want to see it too, it seems quite funny." Wu Ruoyang looked at the sky and smiled silly, but tears welled up in his eyes unconsciously.

"Don't, don't, don't come to see me. I'm fine, I'm so happy." Wu Ruoyang wiped the tears off his face, and continued to walk slowly, "Because... because the company added salary."

"Where's Old Wu? Let me say a few words to him." While talking on the phone, she walked slowly along the sidewalk to the end of the night, the tears on her face were dry and wet.
