the other side.
The President met with the Chief Justice before returning to his office.
"Mr. President!" The secretary placed a stack of newspapers on the table as usual.
He nodded slightly and continued to review the latest documents sent by the Ministry of Education. He only found time to tell Leng Fei: "Read all the headlines of the newspapers and circle the ones related to people's livelihood."
"Yes, sir." Leng Fei hurried forward.
"This is the military newspaper: 'The Ministry of Military Industry has once again revealed data, military spending has increased by another 20% compared to last year' 'Country X is in turmoil, refugees have fled across the border, and tens of thousands of people have been killed or injured'..."
"This is the Economic News..." Leng Fei continued to read, and after a while he changed the newspaper: "This is the People's Livelihood News..."
"Next is the entertainment newspaper—" Leng Fei read subconsciously: "Master Yu has a new girlfriend, Cinderella has landed on the tree—eh?"
When he read this, his eyes fell on the following photos, and he stopped talking. He rubbed his eyes, thinking that he must have seen it wrong. But, it was clearly Miss Xia! Although the photos were blurry, he could still tell at a glance!
How come she and Master Yu are so close? Holding hands, they look like a couple. Moreover, they appeared at the airport together...
Leng Fei quickly read through the report, which said that the two of them were traveling abroad together. This... did you know
Leng Fei glanced at the president who was carefully reviewing the article. He paused for a moment and asked, "Why don't you continue reading?"
"Ah... I'm reading! I... I'm looking for other valuable news." Leng Fei said quickly.
Bai Yeqing said "hmm", seemingly not noticing his abnormality. However, before Leng Fei could read the next headline, he suddenly turned his head to look at him and asked, "The news you just read, Master Yu, was it Yu Zeyao or Yu Er?"
“… Second Young Master Yu.”
"New love? Let me see the newspaper."
"It's just a random article in the newspaper. There are no photos or other content. It must be just like before, just random rumors! I think you should not waste your time reading such fake news."
Bai Yeqing felt that what Leng Fei said made sense. He nodded and said, "Then continue reading the next one."
Leng Fei's forehead was covered with a thin layer of sweat. He calmly crumpled up the newspaper and quietly put it in his pocket. He felt... well, it would be necessary to take the newspaper to the shredder later.
But why couldn't he figure out why Miss Xia was together with Master Yu again? And judging from the President's expression, he really didn't know that he was... cuckolded!
Sigh. Actually, no matter how you look at it, Miss Xia really doesn't look like someone who would cheat! Is it true that you can't judge a person by his appearance
Just as he was thinking this, a cell phone rang. Bai Yeqing's cell phone lit up, and the words "Su Ye" flashed on the screen.
He put down his pen, walked to the window, and answered the call.
"What's up?"
Bai Suye asked over there: "You and Xingchen are not together anymore?"
Bai Yeqing was silent for a moment, as if he had not expected her to ask such a question. Thinking of the woman who left without saying a word and has not received any news since then, his face darkened. "Why do you ask that?"
"I think she's with Yu Zenan. Don't you know about this?"
"What do you mean 'together'?" Bai Yeqing frowned and emphasized the word 'together'.
"From what I know, Yu Zenan has been around Xingchen ever since she moved into your presidential palace. I'm worried that Yu Zeyao might be doing something bad to you. Now that they're together, you have to be more cautious."
Bai Yeqing's eyebrows jumped and he asked again: "What do you mean by 'together'?"
"Didn't you read today's newspaper?"
"Not yet."
"So, are you and Xingchen finally over?"
Bai Yeqing glanced back at the pile of newspapers on the table, and thought of the headline about Yu Zenan that Leng Fei had just read. His face turned a little colder, "I'll call you later."
After hanging up, Shen Bu went back to look through the newspaper. After looking around, he couldn't find it. Leng Fei was terrified.
"Where's the newspaper?" Bai Yeqing glanced at him coldly. He knew he couldn't hide it, so he slowly took the newspaper out of his pocket. Bai Yeqing reached out and snatched it. He found the news headline accurately at a glance.
And then, those photos caught his eye.
A fire rushed from the chest to the center of the eyebrows.
… … …
A minute later, Leng Fei opened the door and walked out of the office in fear, and quickly told his secretary: "Don't go in casually today unless it's important. If you get scolded, don't blame me for not reminding you in advance."
The secretary was so frightened by Leng Fei's words that she looked at the president's office repeatedly, "Wasn't he fine when he just walked in?"
Leng Fei did not say anything, but just gave a command, "Please collect all the newspapers on the table, so as not to irritate His Excellency."
"Is it related to the newspaper? Is there any big news again?"
"Don't ask so many questions, just do as I say. Hurry!"
… …
As a result, throughout the entire day, everyone in the Baiyu Palace saw the President with a stern face. Everyone was very cautious and tense. When the President went somewhere, they didn't even dare to breathe.
Such a beautiful face, usually in front of the media, the smile is perfect and friendly, just like an angel on earth. However, when the face is gloomy, the whole person is cold and particularly creepy.
It's really scary!
… … … …
Xia Xingchen's first day in Country Y was to meet with people from the Ministry of Culture of Country Y. He visited many places of interest in Country Y and discussed some development projects. Perhaps because he was sick, his mind was always in a state of confusion.
Fortunately, Yu Zenan had no language barriers, so her occasional absent-mindedness had no impact at all.
"Do you have a fever again?" During the break, Yu Zenan put his hand on her forehead.
"It's OK, the temperature isn't too high." Yu Zenan felt relieved. "I'll take you to a hot spring later. The hot springs here are very famous. I guarantee that any illness will be cured after a steaming."
"... OK." She didn't refuse and nodded silently. Taking a hot spring bath would be more comfortable, and my chest wouldn't feel so stuffy... It wouldn't be so uncomfortable!
It was better to have Yu Zenan around to chat with her than to have her lying alone in the hotel with her mind wandering.
Xia Xingchen gently sipped the hot drink in front of him. His whole body was empty, but his mind was still filled with the photos on his phone, the romantic kiss in the wind, and the old lady's polite yet aggressive words...
