Three days later, Sun Yang returned in a hurry after his investigation. Without even going home, he pushed open the door and shouted, "Boss, I'm back!"
Without waiting for a response, he rattled on like a spilling bean, "After I got the information from the Information Department, I went to Sunshan University. Most of the responses I got were that they didn't know him well. He was a gloomy guy who rarely took the initiative to chat with others. Even his roommates didn't know him very well. I spent two days in his school but couldn't find anything useful. But who am I... "
Pei Yan glanced at him and said, "Get to the point."
"..."
"Alright. Just when I was about to come back, a ponytailed girl grabbed me. I thought there was something and pulled her to ask. Her name is Ding Rui. She had a crush on Zhao Shan, but..."
"Boss told you to get to the point!" Wang Luo interrupted him impatiently.
Sun Yang slapped the USB drive in his hand on the table. "You can listen to it yourself!"
It's fine that all the hard work falls on him, but he's not even allowed to brag.
This life is unbearable!
Wang Luo picked up the USB drive and plugged it into the computer. After the analysis, Sun Yang's deliberately gentle voice rang out.
The moment Wang Luo heard the voice, he made a silent vomiting gesture at Sun Yang, and was hit by a paper cup thrown by Sun Yang who was getting water.
Sun Yang: "What kind of person was Sun Shan in your impression?"
Ding Rui thought for a while and replied, "He didn't talk much, didn't like to smile, and often frowned. But he had good academic performance. It seemed that his family condition wasn't very good."
Sun Yang: "Did you ever see him get angry with anyone?"
"No. Although he seemed a bit gloomy, he was a nice guy. He always responded to others' requests for help. Oh, right!" Ding Rui seemed to remember something.
Sun Yang asked excitedly, "What is it? Did you remember something?"
"Yes." Ding Rui nodded. "During the second half of the freshman year, before the exams, we had a dinner outside. At that time, there were a few hooligan - looking guys at the next table harassing our department's beauty. We're from the Literature Department. There are few boys in the first place, and they're all gentle scholars. All of them together couldn't beat one of the hooligans. As a result, after a real fight broke out, someone got injured.
We called the police, and the police took us back to take statements. But those hooligans bit back, saying that they were just having a meal there, but these students suddenly attacked them for no reason. I said it was because they were harassing us, but the department's beauty said there wasn't. No matter how much I said at that time, she just said there was no harassment. The girls probably were afraid of getting into trouble, so they all said there wasn't either.
The police asked the boys who started the fight, and they all pointed at Sun Shan, saying it was him. Then he was detained for fighting and didn't show up until the second half of the sophomore year. I almost didn't recognize him at that time.
He became not only more cheerful but also very rich. He would often give gifts worth thousands of yuan. I asked him how he got the money. He said he opened a clothing store outside. He didn't come to class for a while because the store had just opened and he was busy. Now that things were more relaxed, he came back to class.
However, he still often skipped classes. He would come once every ten days or half a month. But even though he often skipped classes, his grades were always the first in our class. Then he got together with the department's beauty, but they broke up in their junior year."
Sun Yang: "Do you know what he liked to eat?"
Ding Rui shook her head. "He didn't seem to have any food taboos."
"Do you know any of his little habits?"
Ding Rui thought for a while and said, "He would tend to pick his nails when he was nervous, so his nails were always short throughout the semester. I'm not sure if this counts."
Sun Yang nodded. "Okay, I see."
"Then, Mr. Reporter, did Zhao Shan make any mistakes?" Ding Rui asked timidly.
Sun Yang was probably at a loss for words for a moment. There was no sound in the recording for a while, only the distant laughter and noise rising and falling.
After a while, Sun Yang gave an embarrassed laugh. "Haha, how could that be? He had an article published. Our editor - in - chief asked me to write a profile about him."
"When will he come to class?" Ding Rui asked.
Sun Yang's hand that was taking notes paused for a moment. He slowly looked up and stared directly at this not - very - pretty girl with some freckles on her face. "In a few days."
"Then I'm relieved." Ding Rui stood up and said, "I'm almost late for class. Goodbye, Mr. Reporter."
"Goodbye."
The recording ended here. After listening, Sun Yang lay on the chair and sighed melancholy, "She even bowed to me before she left. I didn't know what to say to her."
Tell her that the person she admired has turned into ashes? That he won't come back to class? That his life stopped at the age of 25?
Wang Luo rubbed his chin thoughtfully. "I don't know why, but this story sounds familiar. I seem to have heard it somewhere before."
"Didn't you just hear it?" Sun Yang was interrupted when he was being emotional. He rolled his eyes speechlessly.
"No, no." Wang Luo waved his hand. "I heard it a long time ago, and it was in a place with a lot of people. But I just can't remember for a moment."
Seeing that he couldn't remember for a while, Sun Yang turned around boredly. He propped his chin and watched Pei Yu closing his eyes and rubbing his temples. The more he looked, the more familiar it seemed. A flash of light seemed to go through his mind.
He suddenly stood up. "I remembered!"
Wang Luo was startled. The little clue he was about to catch slipped away. He said irritably, "What did you remember?"
"Su Yao!" Sun Yang said excitedly. "She seemed to have acted in this!"
Pei Yan opened his eyes. "What did Yaoyao act in?"
"It was probably a movie last year or the year before. There was this plot where a student was framed for fighting by his classmates, got detained and dropped out of school, and finally became the boss of a Fortune 500 company with his smart mind. Do you still remember what it was called?" Wang Luo grabbed the tail of his memory and asked.
Sun Yang was too excited just now to notice the strange way the boss called Su Yao. With Wang Luo's interruption, he even forgot to ask why the boss, who didn't like to follow stars, would call Su Yao by her nickname.
He scratched his head and said sheepishly, "I forgot, hehe."
"Hehe your head. Hurry up and find it." Wang Luo felt that he would be pissed off by this partner sooner or later.
Watching all of Su Yao's movies after her debut was no small task. Just as the two were about to start, the door of the studio was pushed open. A disheveled woman rushed in crying, "Pei Yan, I don't want a divorce from you!"
Pei Yan picked up the glasses on the table and put them on. His tone was tender, which was rare for him. "What's wrong? Are you not satisfied with the terms? It doesn't matter. There's a blank space at the end. You can write down what you want."
Miao Yue was crying pitifully. She gasped three times in a sentence and couldn't speak clearly. She fumbled in her bag and took out a few pieces of paper. She tore them up in front of him. "I... um, I don't want a divorce. Don't... don't divorce me... okay? Don't divorce me, okay? I'll change. Can I change? Please don't divorce me."
Pei Yan pushed his glasses with a single finger. He opened the drawer, took out a thick stack of A4 papers, and put them on the table. He tapped on them twice with his finger, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly. His smile made even Sun Yang, a man, feel a little attracted. "I have backups here. You can tear them up as you like. If it's not enough, I'll ask Xiaoyang to print more for you."
"Pfft..."
Seeing everyone looking at him, Sun Yang quickly covered his mouth and stood up properly.
This made Miao Yue not know whether she should continue crying...
Wang Luo secretly gave Sun Yang a thumbs - up in admiration.
Sun Yang almost cried. He really didn't do it on purpose.
Just as the studio fell into an unknown silence, Pei Yan's phone rang. He answered the call and naturally turned on the speakerphone.
Miao Yue was overjoyed when she saw this. Sure enough, Pei Yan still cared about her.
It was her request during the marriage that he should turn on the speakerphone for unknown numbers. In the first year of their marriage, Pei Yan was still on guard against her. But later, seeing that she just really wanted to know whether it was a man or a woman on the other end, he got used to it.
But before her smile could fully bloom, it faded, and there was even a bit of resentment on her face.
"... Hello, Pei Yan?"
The moment Sun Yang heard this voice, he almost couldn't control himself and rushed forward. Who else could have such a beautiful voice other than his goddess!
Pei Yan frowned and turned off the speakerphone. "Yaoyao? Why do you have time to call me?"
Su Yao looked around furtively in the car. After making sure that no one was following her, she let out a sigh of relief. "Are you in the studio?"
"Yes, on the 16th floor."
"Okay, I'll come up now."
"Okay."
Sun Yang and Wang Luo watched as their boss, a man who could remain calm and deal with serial killers, was now nervously tidying up his appearance after hanging up the phone!
Nervously tidying up!
Isn't that scary?
Wang Luo immediately sent a text message to the front desk. If there was a guest looking for the boss later, just take her in directly.
Don't stop her!
Seeing that he sent several text messages in such a hurry, the front desk immediately replied: Got it!
Miao Yue had been married to Pei Yan since she graduated from college. This was the first time she heard him call someone's name in such a tender tone.
She stood up and tidied up her messy hair. She was going to see who this vixen was.
It had to be said that sometimes a woman's imagination was really scary. At this moment, Pei Yan just didn't know how to face Su Yao...
Knock, knock, knock.
After a polite knock on the door, Sun Yang quickly went to open it. Su Yao took off her mask and sunglasses and smiled. "Thank you."
"Y... you're welcome." Sun Yang, who was dazzled, covered his heart and replied stutteringly.
Miao Yue looked at her in disbelief. "How did you find this place?" Then she turned to Pei Yan and questioned him, "Did you want to divorce me because of her?!"
Su Yao naturally saw Miao Yue too. "Oh, sister - in - law is here too. Long time no see."
"Su Yao, stop pretending!" Miao Yue glared at her resentfully. "If it weren't for you, why would Pei Yan divorce me? You vixen!"
"Me? A vixen?" Su Yao asked Pei Yan in a daze. "You want a divorce?"
