Views:

Zhuang Baihua didn't dare to confirm whether this movie star was the legendary paranoid boss number two.

The more Zhuang Baihua looked at him, the more he looked like him. He was handsome, had a gentle smile, was gentlemanly and elegant, and his status and position also fit the definition of a big boss.

Zhuang Baihua believed that the plot would not send such a person in front of them for no reason. Although it was the first time they met, Zhuang Baihua was 80% sure that this person was one of the five paranoid male supporting roles.

After all, the keyword "lens" is given in the character introduction on the back cover of the novel.

No one is more suitable for the camera than the "Best Actor".

At this moment, Tang Feng was no longer satisfied with staring at Chi Yue, and walked towards him with his long legs.

Zhuang Baihua immediately set off, and came to Chi Yue one step faster than Tang Feng, and said to Chi Yue: "Xiao Chi, you have worked hard today, you should go home early, and I will have someone take you back to school directly later."

Chi Yue lifted her thin eyelids, first glanced over Zhuang Baihua's shoulder at Tang Feng behind her, then smiled and said, "I still have to go back to the company."

"Then let's go together." Zhuang Baihua signaled to the assistant next to him, preparing to call everyone to leave together. Unexpectedly, Tang Feng behind him couldn't hold back, took a step forward, pulled Chi Yue, raised a gentle smile to him, and said: "Hello, what's your name?"

What kind of pick-up method is this from thirty years ago? Even Zhuang Baihua thought it was old-fashioned. He turned around and glanced at Tang Feng lightly, and asked, "What do you want from my employees?"

Tang Feng said in a gentle manner: "Hello, Mr. Zhuang, my name is Tang Feng, and I'm an actor." He curled his lips, looked at Zhuang Baihua, and then turned his gaze back to Chi Yue and said, "I just heard you talking. He was a student. How did he suddenly become Mr. Zhuang's employee?"

Tang Feng seems to have a good temper, but Zhuang Baihua always has preconceived prejudices.

Zhuang Baihua thought of the original owner’s small dark room and the things in it. He felt sick just thinking about it now.

The second paranoid male supporting character is not necessarily worse than the first in terms of madness.

Zhuang Baihua still stood in front of Chi Yue and smiled: "Students can also enter the company to improve themselves in advance. What does this have to do with Mr. Tang?"

When Secretary Chen heard what Zhuang Baihua said, he looked up in surprise.

Since that night in the club, Mr. Zhuang has rarely been so tough.

She looks like an old hen protecting her chicks...

Tang Feng was still smiling. Everyone could see that Zhuang Baihua was not friendly to him, but he always maintained his elegant demeanor and said, "This classmate's posture in front of the camera just now was really charming and attracted me very much." He said to Chi Yue sincerely, "I wonder if you are interested in developing a career in the entertainment industry?"

Wow, he is poaching people openly. Is he an actor or a talent scout

Before Chi Yue could speak, Zhuang Baihua rejected him: "I'm sorry, he has no intention of becoming an actor or singer."

After saying that, Zhuang Baihua winked at Secretary Chen, who quickly stepped forward and dragged Chi Yue away from the photography studio.

"Our company is busy with business, so I'll take my leave first." Zhuang Baihua waved to everyone, led the bodyguards, and walked out in a mighty manner.

Tang Feng looked at their backs, the smile on his face never faded.

The photographer came over and exaggeratedly trembled, saying fearfully, "It's pitiful that you've chosen me. Fortunately, that child has someone to protect him."

Tang Feng turned his head with a smile and said in a cheerful voice, "No way, I'm such a pure and innocent person."

He looked again in the direction where Zhuang Baihua and Chi Yue left and said, "Besides, I like challenges. The harder it is to get, the more interesting it is."

Although it is still debatable, Zhuang Baihua did not expect the second male supporting role to appear so soon.

Maybe the plot is disgusted with him for not living up to his expectations and has given up on letting him lock Chi Yue up in a small dark room, and instead places hope on someone else.

No matter what, Zhuang Baihua will help Chi Yue get rid of the harassment of these paranoid lunatics and let Chi Yue live and study well.

It’s not that he has any feelings towards Chi Yue, but because Director Zhuang is extremely responsible and can’t bear to see a hardworking child suffer.

When Zhuang Baihua was young, his parents taught him to be compassionate and empathetic, and guided him to save his pocket money to support poor and out-of-school children in remote mountainous areas.

So when Zhuang Baihua saw Chi Yue, it was like seeing his child... no, it was the child he sponsored.

Couldn't help but help.

It’s just that we can’t completely confirm Tang Feng’s identity now, and we don’t know what the point of his paranoia is.

You can't still like to lock people up in a dark room.

Just as Zhuang Baihua was thinking about these things, he suddenly received an internal call from the General Affairs Department.

Only people at the ministerial level can call the president's internal line, but the office manager of the General Affairs Department has the privilege because he has to report Chi Yue's internship situation to the president.

Zhuang Baihua picked up the phone, thinking that something had happened to Chi Yue, but the supervisor said mysteriously, "Boss Zhuang... a strange person came to see Chi Yue."

Zhuang Baihua frowned and asked, "What kind of strange person?"

"It's just... a man, wearing a hat, sunglasses, and a mask, and he's completely covered up. He's been here several times. It's so strange, Mr. Zhuang, is this man a criminal?"

Zhuang Baihua: “…”

Not a criminal, but an actor.

Tang Feng actually went to the company to find Chi Yue in person without even considering his own identity.

Zhuang Baihua said: "Why don't you ask the security guard to ask him to leave?"

"But Chi Yue said she recognized him." The supervisor said cautiously.

Everyone in the company knew about Chi Yue's specialness, and no one dared to stop Chi Yue's guests.

And because it was related to Chi Yue, the supervisor thought of reporting to the president: "He's here now..."

Zhuang Baihua pinched his brows and said, "Call the security guard and let him go."

"Okay, Mr. Zhuang." After receiving the order, the supervisor hung up the phone and went to find the security guard.

After a while, the supervisor called again.

"Boss Zhuang... our security is too weak to drive them away..."

Zhuang Baihua: “…”

Zhuang Baihua immediately thought of the security guard standing guard at the company's gate.

Probably because of the scar on his forehead, the security guard looked very self-deprecating and didn't even dare to look up at people when passing by.

Zhuang Baihua said with a headache: "There is more than one security guard in the company, send a few more."

The supervisor then hung up the phone again.

There were no more phone calls that day, so it seemed the problem was solved.

A few days later, Zhuang Baihua passed by the company gate.

Unlike the original owner, Zhuang Baihua likes to go through the front door so that he can have more contact with employees. A leader who does not contact the masses is not a good leader.

When he entered the gate, the security guy was still there, but this time he had his hat pulled lower, and the red scar couldn't be seen unless you looked closely.

Zhuang Baihua felt that he was not suitable for this position, but everyone has their own aspirations and he respected other people's career choices.

After taking a few more glances, Zhuang Baihua saw several bouquets of flowers on the table next to the security guard.

The light pink or yellow flower was not a rose. Zhuang Baihua asked, "What is this?"

The security guard gave the president a timid look and replied, "It's a flower."

Zhuang Baihua: "..." I'm not blind, "I'm asking why there are flowers here, are they yours?"

The security guard said: "No, someone gave it to Chi Yue."

Zhuang Baihua raised his eyebrows and asked, "The one wearing a mask and a hat?"

The security guard nodded: "It was him. Because of your order, he couldn't come in, so he left the gift at the door and asked me to pass it to Chi Yue." He took out several small gifts from the drawer of the table, "and other things."

Zhuang Baihua: “…”

Those gifts were beautifully packaged and didn't look cheap. Tang Feng said he wanted to recruit Chi Yue into the entertainment industry, but he was actually pursuing her.

Zhuang Baihua asked: "What is Chi Yue's attitude?"

"He didn't say to take it or not, he just said to put it here." The security guard touched his hat in distress, "But, there's almost no room left."

"It's basic courtesy to return unwanted items in person," said Zhuang Baihua. "Next time that person comes, let me know."

Zhuang Baihua said this and walked towards the elevator.

The entire conversation they had just had took place in front of the company's gate. There were quite a few employees nearby who seemed to be doing their own things, but in fact, their ears pricked up like rabbits, taking in everything Zhuang Baihua said.

They immediately distilled the key points, and new gossip began to spread in the company: someone was pursuing Chi Yue, which made President Zhuang very unhappy.

Who is Chi Yue? Chi Yue is the girl specially arranged by President Zhuang to work in the company.

Everyone can see that Chi Yue is different from others. President Zhuang has even taken personal care of it, hoping that the General Affairs Department can train Chi Yue well.

If Mr. Zhuang and Chi Yue were not only eight years apart, everyone would really think that Chi Yue was Mr. Zhuang’s illegitimate child…

This time, someone dared to come to the company openly to pursue Chi Yue. Doesn't this mean they don't take President Zhuang seriously

Mr. Zhuang will definitely not give up.

Everyone was waiting to see the show.

Zhuang Baihua’s idea was very simple. Since Chi Yue refused to accept Tang Feng’s gift, he should return the gift to her in person. Chi Yue was young and it was difficult for her to ask for it, so he would do it.

Zhuang Baihua hopes to persuade Tang Feng to give up Chi Yue.

So Zhuang Baihua actually received a notification from the security guard at the door that the gentleman wearing a mask had come again.

Zhuang Baihua ordered his men: "Please invite him to the coffee shop. I will come later."

The company building has its own coffee shop for employees to relax, and Zhuang Baihua arranged people there, thinking that firstly, Tang Feng was not there to discuss business, so he could just be casual, and secondly, it was a public place, so it would be more convenient for conversation.

When Zhuang Baihua led his secretary downstairs and walked towards the coffee shop, he felt that he met a lot of subordinates along the way.

Normally, when he entered the elevator, many people were afraid of him and would walk around him. But today, they actively moved closer to him, greeted him with a smile, and secretly observed him.

People kept passing by in the corridor. Zhuang Baihua thought, why are there so many people hanging out outside during working hours? It seems that I need to check the attendance.

The employees, who had no idea that they were about to face attendance hell, were still secretly observing the president, hoping to get some first-hand gossip.

Just before Zhuang Baihua entered the coffee shop, someone couldn't help but shout out what was in his mind: "Boss Zhuang! Come on!"

Zhuang Baihua: “?” I don’t know why you should cheer me up, but… “Thank you.”

The employees clenched their fists and watched Zhuang Baihua walk into the cafe.

Although they had some complaints about Chi Yue joining the company before, they still hope that the president can win compared to the masked man who came from nowhere!

Zhuang Baihua had no idea that he was carrying huge expectations of his employees. He pretended to be Chi Yue's parent and came to negotiate with his child's premature love.

Tang Feng was already sitting by the window in the cafe, with long legs and a thin waist, perfect proportions. The silhouette of his figure cast on the glass window looked like a painting.

Zhuang Baihua walked over, Tang Feng stood up and greeted politely: "Mr. Zhuang, good afternoon."

Zhuang Baihua asked him to sit down in a friendly manner: "Hello."

The secretary spontaneously went to order coffee and tea. Zhuang Baihua looked at Tang Feng with a strange look.

This person... always wears a mask and a hat, which is really weird.

Tang Feng saw Zhuang Baihua's eyes, smiled behind his mask, raised his hand to take off his hat, and said, "Sorry, due to my job, it is not convenient for me to expose myself in public."

But he still took off his mask, revealing his handsome and gentle face.

At this time, there were still many company employees wandering outside the cafe, and they were always paying attention to the situation of the two people in the cafe.

Suddenly, the masked man took off his mask, shocking the onlookers.

How come he's still kind of handsome

Wait, that looks familiar.

Isn’t that Tang Feng who acted in movies
