After My Rebirth, I Escaped My Marriage-Chapter 879 - : Do You Know to Be Civilized?
Chapter 879: Chapter 879: Do You Know to Be Civilized?
Feng Yangyang appeared on Yuanjiang Road, and Wen Yanqing received an alert from the detective immediately. Hearing that Gu Zhichuan was also there, Wen Yanqing furrowed his brow and scoffed lightly.
“What’s the situation with Chen Zhou now, has he agreed?” he asked.
“After some hesitation, he seemed to be loosening up. A couple more visits, and we should be able to seal the deal.”
Wen Yanqing stood up, gazing at the blazing sun in the sky, and slightly narrowed his eyes, “Chen Zhou still has some humanity in him. Doesn’t he have a child about to start elementary school, and a paralyzed mother at home? Have someone see if there’s anything we can do to help.”
“Does Mr. Wen intend to threaten…”
“No, it’s persuasion.” His expression couldn’t have been more gentle and harmless, “What era are we in, still resorting to thuggery? Civilized, you know?”
On the other end of the phone: “…Okay.” Although it didn’t quite sound convincing.
After Wen Yanqing finished the call, there was a knock at the door.
“Come in.” He put down his cell phone.
Yi Qian came in with documents that needed reviewing.
It wasn’t until three in the afternoon that Lin Gantang leisurely made her way to the bookstore.
Qian Ruoxi told her someone was looking for her. From the description, Lin Gantang guessed it was most likely Gu Zhichuan.
“I told him to contact you by phone if it was important, but he didn’t say much and just left,” said Qian Ruoxi.
Lin Gantang acknowledged she understood.
Contact her? Gu Zhichuan was currently lying on her blacklist; there was no way to reach her.
Lin Gantang felt it best not to release him; it was rather pleasant having peace and quiet.
She had come over today to discuss the theme of the book exhibition event with Qian Ruoxi, preparing to leave the arrangements to the store manager.
Not wanting to take up her time after work, Lin Gantang made use of the quiet hours when there were fewer customers to talk things over.
By four o’clock, as the flow of customers gradually picked up, Lin Gantang descended from the second floor and noticed a crowd on the first floor, where someone carrying a camera stood out particularly.
“Miss Lin.” A clear voice called out to Lin Gantang.
Holding Ximi, Lin Gantang turned around in surprise, “Yang Binye?”
She looked at the person beside him who appeared to be part of the crew and asked, “Are you filming?”
“Recording a reality show.” Yang Binye walked over, glanced back at the crowd gathering outside the bookstore, and touched his nose, “It seems like we’re disturbing your business.”
“Not at all.” Lin Gantang smiled, and as she saw a few young customers inside who seemed to recognize him, they approached and took out their phones to film, Lin Gantang remarked, “You’re quite popular, aren’t you? Really high profile.”
“Probably because the company’s packaging and marketing are too successful,” Yang Binye admitted honestly.
Otherwise, how would a newcomer like him have any clout or be known by anyone?
Lin Gantang’s eyes crinkled with a smile, “Are you really okay with saying that to the camera?”
Yang Binye gestured with his fingers like scissors, “I’ll have the editors cut it out later.”
When he spotted the artificial Siamese cat in the store, Yang Binye couldn’t help but step closer for a better look, “It’s really beautiful. Is it the same Siamese cat as before? I gave…”
He wanted to ask about the felt cat he had given to Lin Gantang before, but under the lens, he feared that mentioning it would lead to overinterpretation if others cut it out, so he held back his words.
“Binye, Rong Cheng and the others are coming,” a co-star hurried over to alert him.
Yang Binye glanced outside the door, hissed, and quickly asked, “Miss Lin, may I borrow an employee’s apron from your store?”
Lin Gantang guessed he wanted to hide himself, and with a gleam in her eye, she called out, “Xiao Yang, come here.”
Before long, a guest named Rong Cheng who had followed them came rushing into the store. He searched inside and out three times over but couldn’t find Yang Binye.
Yang Binye, who had changed into an employee’s uniform and posed as a staff member, was at the checkout counter helping customers. Rong Cheng passed by him three times without noticing anything awry.
After Rong Cheng left, Yang Binye came out to thank Lin Gantang, who asked with a smile what reality show it was, promising to watch it later.
Yang Binye, faced with her bright smile, suddenly felt embarrassed, “Just… a normal competitive reality show.”freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
