Stand-in Exit, Tycoon Boss Anxious Crazy

Ji Yang was the only ray of warm sunshine in Ni-Man's dark world, a warm and quiet young man who wasn't good with words, preferring to accompany in silence.

Xia Zehua, on the other hand, was a chatterbox and quite impulsive, nothing like Ji Yang.

"Alright, alright, I'll shut up, okay?" Xia Zehua said, clearly annoyed.

Xiang-Nuan and Xia Zehua both entered the makeup room to get ready.

Qimu was an upscale club in Peking City.

As the private room door slid open, someone greeted with a laugh, "Getting President Shen to come is no easy feat. I've been inviting you for half a month, and you finally agree to show up fashionably late."

The room was filled with close friends who instinctively gave the seat of honor to Shen Yanshi.

"Been tied up with company matters."

"You're always so busy. Can you ever earn enough money?"

The speaker was Ming Tianlang, a childhood friend of Shen Yanshi, but a prodigal heir with no chance of taking over the family business.

Ming Tianlang, ever the gossip, leaned in, "I heard you broke up with that little starlet?"

Shen Yanshi's eyes darkened, he picked up a glass of wine and drank without responding.

Undeterred, Ming Tianlang pressed on, "Why the sudden split?"

"Don't know what she's making a fuss about."

Xiang-Nuan had always been well-behaved; this was the first time she'd been so unreasonable.

"Hey, it's just women making a scene to get your attention, probably feeling insecure and trying to lock you down. Didn't expect you wouldn't play along and she'd slip away, right? I've seen these little starlets' tricks too many times."

Shen Yanshi's gaze turned icy, "None of your business."

Ming Tianlang awkwardly changed the subject, "Let's drop it! Hey, Gong-Nian is coming too, it's been years since all of us childhood friends gathered together!"

Shen Yanshi leaned back on the sofa, rubbing his temples, feeling an inexplicable irritation.

The door opened again, and everyone cheered, "Look, Mrs. Gong has arrived?"

Gong-Nian smiled and sat next to Shen Yanshi, "Don't call me that."

"Little Nian still so shy? Haven't changed a bit in years."

A quick look at /2p9emv8w will leave you more fulfilled.

Gong-Nian smiled with pursed lips, turning to Shen Yanshi, "They're bullying me again."

Gong-Nian and Shen Yanshi were also classmates, but she was timid as a child, and these boys always wanted to tease her. Shen Yanshi, however, would protect her.

Shen Yanshi smiled.

"Hey, what's this? Coming back and immediately seeking Yanshi's support?"

"Of course, Yanshi always looks out for her!"

"Years have passed, and it seems nothing has changed."

"If Little Nian hadn't gotten married, maybe by now..."

The lively conversation abruptly stopped there.@@novelbin@@

An hour later, the press conference officially began.

The main cast of the drama was invited, six leads in total, but everyone knew the drill, subtly cueing the audience to ship Xiang-Nuan and Xia Zehua, sneakily sweetening the atmosphere.

Xiang-Nuan and Xia Zehua stood together throughout, with Xia Zehua intentionally standing closer to Xiang-Nuan to show closeness, sharing anecdotes about filming together, and glancing at her from time to time.

The fans in the live comments were ecstatic.

"Wow, our Spring-Nuan and Hua have brought in the New Year!"

"Xia Zehua, don't be too lovable! Are your eyes glued to Xiang-Nuan?"

"Who understands, their vibe is completely different! They have a barrier with the rest of the crew!"

"Xia Zehua just passed the mic to Nuan-Nuan, was it necessary to hand it over personally from so far away?!"

"Ah, they must be real, it's too sweet!"
