Chapter 153: Why Are You Showering Early In The Morning?

Seeing that Song Chuchu wasn’t going to carry her, Changqing was unhappy.

At that moment, the sound of water came from the bathroom.

Changqing could roughly guess something and felt a little proud.

When Song Chuyi came out from the shower, she waited outside the door and chuckled as she purposely asked, “Why are you showering early in the morning?”

Song Chuyi looked at her sly eyes and said with a despising tone on purpose, “You sweated all over me last night. Can’t I take a shower?”

Changqing lowered her head and looked at herself after hearing that. Did I sweat?

After breakfast, the two each drove off to work.

When she was approaching the broadcasting station, Changqing’s phone rang. It was a call from Jiang Duoyao. She hesitated for a while before picking up. “Duoyao, last night…”

“Did I shoot my mouth off last night?” Jiang Duoyao said with a tone of guilt. “Ruan Yang called me in the morning and explained things to me. Last night I only said those words after hearing Guan Ying’s story when she called me.”

Changqing felt better inside. She thought Duoyao was still angry at her after hearing from Ruan Yang. “Didn’t Ruan Yang call you last night?”

“She said that the few times she called me, I was on call. I must’ve been talking to Guan Ying.” Duoyao said, “Yesterday, Guan Ying and I were on the same side. Today, Ruan Yang also told me your point of your view. You weren’t really wrong. I can only say Guan Ying shouldn’t have let go of Song Chuyi in the first place. However, when I was on the phone with Guan Ying last night, I could feel that she genuinely liked Song Chuyi not just because of the Song family’s background. I think she really had her heart broken this time.”

Changqing was sad. “Duoyao, Song Chuyi clearly said he would never reconcile with a woman who had betrayed him. That’s why I…”

“Alright, Guan Ying was in the wrong in this matter. The two of you are my good friends. It’s not nice for me to help either side so I’ll still remain neutral.” Jiang Duoyao sighed. “However, I want to help you persuade Guan Ying. I hoped our friendship would last long but I never thought that it would turn out like this because of a man. Perhaps I think of certain things too romantically…”

Changqing was silent for a while and could only say, “Duoyao, I’ll have to trouble you with regards to Guan Ying then.”

“Mm, However, I reckon she won’t listen to me much.” Jiang Duoyao was rather gloomy.

Changqing didn’t feel good either.

When she reached the broadcasting station, the moment Changqing walked into the office, people from various departments came over immediately upon hearing of her arrival. Suddenly, there was an endless stream of people in the office.

Changqing reached the variety crew at nine-thirty. When the meeting started, Mei Zong chuckled and stood up first to applaud. “Firstly, in our meeting today, we would like to cordially welcome Changqing back to our variety crew.”

Everyone immediately applauded passionately. Zuo Qian also watched her with a smile. After not seeing her for a week, the acne on Changqing’s face was much better. Although it hadn’t fully subsided, she could still conceal it with powder.

“Changqing, I’ll have to depend on you and Zuo Qian to host next time. Honestly, I wasn’t used to not having you around these past few days. I wasn’t very pleased with the program Chi Yining recorded previously. I just like your hosting style.” Mei Zong’s pleasant expression almost made Changqing unable to recognize her.

Everyone exchanged glances. What’s with Director Mei suddenly becoming so amiable towards Changqing?

However, snobby people like Director Mei would never be nice to someone for no rhyme or reason. Something must’ve changed. Therefore, everyone was very polite to Changqing during the meeting today, making Changqing feel unaccustomed to it.

During lunch, everyone from the variety crew followed Changqing around to the canteen and coincidentally, she bumped into Chi Yining.

The two met on the way and thinking that Changqing had Song Chuyi as her backer now, Changqing raised her brows at the other with a smile, going up to her. “Yining, what a coincidence? You’re here to eat too? I heard you were recently transferred to do outdoor hosting. How is it?”

Chi Yining’s face blackened. Her rage bubbled up at the mention of this. Initially, she was supposed to substitute for Changqing for the recording of Challenge to the End and she even did the rehearsal. In the end, with a last-minute word from the higher-ups, she was swapped out again and even got transferred to another program to be an outdoor host. Because of this incident, she even went to look for Boss Feng angrily. In the end, he wasn’t as amiable as before and even gave her a tongue-lashing. She finally coaxed Boss Feng but he still insisted on her doing outdoor hosting. On such a warm day, she almost died outside because of the heat.

These past few days, she had simply become a laughing-stock at the station.

Now, seeing Yan Changqing’s smug look, her raging fury surged up. However, she recalled Boss Feng’s look when he gave her a stern warning about not offending Yan Changqing and she held it in, saying lightly, “Yeah, it’s quite good. I’m still young anyway—I’ll just take it as experience.”

“You should’ve had this mentality earlier.” Zheng Yan looked at her disapprovingly. “You’re still too young; it’s good to go through some hardship. Don’t keep thinking about getting instant success. Aye, right, did you read about that internet host being arrested?”

Chi Yining’s face froze. Zhu Jia, who was by the side, asked purposely, “Do you mean the female host who was caught recording the indecent video?”

“Precisely,” Zheng Yan said with a smile. “Not having a sense of propriety, justice, integrity and honor just to earn money, selling her own body without knowing what shame is, always thinking of finding a shortcut to earn money. I wonder how her parents taught her. Therefore, you shouldn’t think about climbing high and far when you’re young. Be humble and steadfast, take one step at a time and you will eventually succeed, just like me. Therefore, Yining, you have to learn more from us.”

Chi Yining was so furious her face turned red. This Zheng Yan actually compared her to that female host, obviously trying to mock her. However, she couldn’t blow up as she spoke like a senior. “Sister Zheng is right, so I’ll have to thank Sister Zheng. I have a lot to learn from Sister Zheng with regards to my attitude in certain aspects, but I think I should forget about some other aspects. Being a sports host isn’t my goal.”

“Aiyo, Sister Zheng, is she trying to say that she spurns the position of a sports host?” Zhu Jia immediately made use of the opportunity.

Zheng Yan glanced unhappily at Chi Yining.

Chi Yining smiled lightly. “As humans, we should have big goals. Don’t tell me Sister Changqing’s goal is just being a sports host?”

Changqing was in a daze. This war had slowly crept up on her. “Actually, I think each role has its own merits. The competition in sporting isn’t big and viewership is stable. There are many hosts who wish to get a spot in the field. However, not everyone can make the cut.”

“That’s true. Firstly, you have to be knowledgeable about sports. There are usually many males hosts and very few female hosts in sporting.” Zhu Jia nodded and looked at Chi Yining. “In any case, it’s much more comfortable than outdoor hosting.”

“It doesn’t matter. Sister Zheng said just now that young people should get more experience.” Chi Yining looked disapprovingly at these people, hinting to them that she was younger than all of them.

“That’s true. I hope you get more experience in this respect,” Zheng Yan said meaningfully.

Chi Yining smiled before leaving.

Zhu Jia curled her lips at her departing figure. “What’s there to be smug about? Who doesn’t know that she’s been getting experience on Boss Feng’s bed every day?”

Yan Changqing was shocked. “She’s still with Boss Feng?”

Based off Song Chuyi’s warning to Boss Feng previously, Boss Feng should be staying far away from Chi Yining.

“Have they separated before?” Zheng Yan glanced at her and whispered, “The night before, I even saw her go to Boss Feng’s office after work and she didn’t come out for a very long time. Say, what do you think they were doing inside?”

Changqing suddenly felt a little disgusted. What interests? Not even letting the office off.

Chi Yining really staked everything she had too.

If it were her, she would feel disgusted at just a touch with someone who looked like Boss Feng.

After lunch, Changqing returned to her office to rest. She still had a program recording in the afternoon and she had to take a nap to muster up the energy.

However, shortly after she closed her eyes on the couch, Zuo Qian came and saw her with her hair all messed up and he asked gently with a smile, “Napping?”

“Mm, I slept too late last night.” Changqing yawned. “Teacher Zuo, what’s the matter?”

Zuo Qian said gently, “You’re really popular today, I wanted to speak to you several times but I couldn’t cut in.”

Changqing felt a little embarrassed. “Perhaps it was because I haven’t been in for too long and everyone knows about what happened to me on the production team so they’re concerned.”

“I know your ties with everyone aren’t bad. However, this time, even Director Mei was eagerly attentive to you.” Zuo Qian watched her with a clear gaze. “Is it because of… that person previously?”

Changqing was shocked. She recalled the time when they met Zuo Qian in the boss’s office previously and hesitated for a while before nodding.

Teacher Zuo had always taken good care of her. She didn’t want to lie to him.

Zuo Qian felt a suffocating sense of pain emanating from his heart. He liked her so much but could only watch her be with someone else.

These past few days, without her around, he had been going through the motions only. He wanted to see her, but now that he saw her, she was already someone else’s.

He smiled and said, “Changqing, do you like him?”

Changqing felt his smile was a little off but she nodded once again.

“As long as you do.” Zuo Qian’s smile didn’t change. “A few days ago, I was having a meal with Boss Feng and he seemed to have mentioned that if the station’s new program is suitable for you, he would transfer you over to host the show. After all, the character in Challenge to the End isn’t what you’re good at. Did you know about this?”

Changqing was in a daze. She shook her head. She was completely in the dark. She thought for a while and said, “I understand Boss Feng’s consideration. Challenge to the End is gearing towards a performance. If I could find a platform that’s suitable for me like Sister Zheng, the type of exposure doesn’t matter. What matters is comfort. Even if a day like that really comes, I still wouldn’t bear to leave you, Teacher Zuo.”

Zuo Qian watched her silently. She couldn’t bear to and he would only be more reluctant than her.

She had someone she liked. That was the first step.

She had to leave the variety crew. That was the second step.

In the end, the two would only drift further apart. A hint of sorrow crossed Zuo Qian’s heart.

“Teacher Zuo…”

“Changqing, take your nap. I’ll take my leave first.” Zuo Qian stood up and walked out.

In the afternoon, the guests arrived and after dressing up, the recording in the afternoon didn’t go smoothly mainly because Zuo Qian kept making mistakes.

As a first-rate host, Zuo Qian was seldom like this. Director Mei and the guests couldn’t really say anything. By the time the recording finally ended, it was eight in the evening.

At night, everyone went for supper together.

Changqing hadn’t had supper for a long time ever since she had her acne, mainly because Song Chuchu didn’t allow her to, saying that supper would affect the recovery of her face. Now that she finally saw some supper delicacies, Changqing began to wolf the food down with a glove.

While she was fighting her lone battle, the others on the crew were drinking merrily.

When she was around 70% full, Changqing felt a weight on her shoulder. She turned her head around and discovered a drunk Zuo Qian leaning on her shoulder. His gentle face was flushed red. She was shocked and looked at everyone else. At the side, Xiao Zhao from the editing department quickly helped Zuo Qian up.

Zuo Qian grabbed onto a bottle. “Come, continue drinking.”

“Zuo Qian, drink less.” Director Mei tried to persuade him.

“I’m not drunk.” Zuo Qian took a huge gulp from the bottle he was holding on to.

“What’s with Teacher Zuo today?” Changqing turned to ask Wen Tong.

Wen Tong looked at her speechlessly. What a low EQ, low EQ.

Could she not tell that Zuo Qian was heartbroken?

“Teacher Zuo, don’t keep drinking. Have some prawns.” Changqing took the initiative to peel him a prawn.

Zuo Qian raised his warm and hazy eyes and looked at her, making Changqing feel uneasy.

“Zuo Qian, what a coincidence.” At that moment, a surprised woman’s voice came from the entrance.

“Zixin.” Director Mei stood up immediately and said with an agitated laugh, “What a coincidence. What are you doing here too?”

Changqing looked over. When she didn’t look, she didn’t know, but once she took a glance, she got a shock.

The man with Zhang Zixin was actually Song Chulang.

She was suddenly nervous. Zhang Zixin didn’t like her. Now, Song Chulang who didn’t like her even more was here. What should she do tonight? Also, what were the two of them doing together? What would happen to Zuo Qian then?

She looked at Zuo Qian subconsciously. Zuo Qian was still watching her intently. She could only give him a reminder. “Teacher Zuo, Miss Zhang Zixin is here.”

Only then did Zuo Qian turn his face over. Zhang Zixin was smiling as she looked at him and introduced Song Chulang beside her. “This is CEO Song from the Song Corporation. I happened to be filming a commercial at the Song Corporation today. It was late so I invited CEO Song over to have supper. I also ate here with you guys last time when I went for recording and found the food to be not bad. To think we would meet. Zuo Qian, are you drunk?”

“He had a drop too much today.” Director Mei quickly stood up to shake Song Chulang’s hand. “CEO Song, if you don’t mind, join us.”

Zhang Zixin looked at him. Judging from Song Chulang’s indifferent personality, she thought he wouldn’t agree to it.

Who knew that Song Chulang would actually nod.

Director Mei was so happy that she quickly got the service staff to bring two more chairs over.

After they took their seats, their seating arrangement changed. Beside Zuo Qian sat Zhang Zixin, Song Chulang and Mei Zong.

Zhang Zixin introduced everyone at the table to Song Chulang. When she reached Changqing, Song Chulang only nodded, as though they weren’t familiar with each other.

“CEO Song, have a try and see how the supper tastes here.” After the introductions, Zhang Zixin personally picked a crab for Song Chulang.

Song Chulang took a bite and said, “Not bad.”

Under the light, his features were quite similar to Song Chuyi. When he wasn’t speaking, the indifference in his eyes was identical too. Changqing couldn’t help it but her gaze landed on Song Chulang.

“Zuo Qian, why are you drinking alone?” Zhang Zixin asked gently as she picked up her glass. “Are you drunk?”

Zuo Qian propped his forehead in his hand and shook his head, toasting in her direction and saying, “I’m finishing this. You do as you please.”

Zhang Zixin frowned. Mei Zong explained, “Zuo Qian kept making mistakes during the recording today. He might not be in a good mood.”

“Is that so? I thought Zuo Qian never made mistakes,” Zhang Zixin mumbled to herself.

Not long later, Song Chulang’s phone on the table rang. He picked up his phone and walked out.

Mei Zong complimented, “To think CEO Song from the Song Corporation would be this young.”

“Yeah, it was the first time I met him too. I heard the Songs keep a low-profile. Sister Zixin, you are so capable to be able to invite CEO Song.” Someone from the variety crew fawned over her.

Zhang Zixin smiled slightly, saying, “I’m friends with CEO Song.”

Changqing really took her hat off to her. Zhang Zixin could actually become friends with such a gloomy man like Song Chulang.

After three rounds of drinks, Mei Zong was still the one trying hard to come up with a conversation. Zhang Zixin and Song Chulang said very few words. Zuo Qian, who didn’t stop drinking, suddenly stood up and walked towards the toilet.

Everyone was shocked. Zhang Zixin stood up first and walked towards Zuo Qian. “I’ll take a look at him.”

Changqing glanced at Song Chulang’s cold gaze and muttered in her heart, “Is there something going on between this Song Chulang and Zhang Zixin?”

Suddenly, Song Chulang seemed to have captured her gaze and looked at her. Changqing was like a rabbit that saw a tiger and stood up nervously. “I’m going to the toilet.”
