Chapter 125 Li Yucheng is a dumb fool
The speed of action and the quick response are amazing.
After the social event was over, Tao Wenyao was still joking about this on the way back.
Li Yucheng didn't care. After all, the other party didn't even have someone to make fun of, which made him even more pitiful in comparison.
What he was more concerned about was the matter with Cheng Wenbo. It was not convenient to ask about it outside, so when he returned to the hotel, he made a video call immediately.
"What's wrong?" Ni Jia glanced at his phone and continued to hand over to the Swiss side.
"doing what?"
"Work, back to the hotel?"
"Yeah." Li Yucheng took off his suit and tie, walked to the freezer with his cell phone in hand, and bent down to get the wine.
This is what he would do when he returns to the hotel during a business trip. Drinking can not only relax him, but also help him fall asleep better.
As his fingertips touched the wine bottle, he was stunned for a moment, then quickly retracted his fingers and closed the cabinet.
Ni Jia heard the sound and turned around. From the background, he judged that the other person was at the bar. Then, considering the noise just now, he quickly guessed that Li Yucheng was opening the refrigerator.
"Let them send a glass of honey water," she said in a light voice, not wanting to seem to be paying too much attention.
Li Yucheng put down the sparkling water in his hand, contacted room service, went back to lie on the sofa, and after a while unbuttoned the two buttons on his collar.
The atmosphere was too quiet, and the room was heated enough that it made people feel inexplicably depressed.
"What did you do today?"
After Ni Jia finished replying to the message, he slowly turned to the screen: "What do you want to ask?"
"Did he contact you?"
Ni Jia said frankly: "Yes."
"What did you talk about?"
"things related to work."
"No more?" Li Yucheng asked, "Didn't we meet?"
Cheng Wenbo had made the appointment for today, and Ni Jia knew what Li Yucheng was worried about.
After talking about work, Cheng Wenbai naturally had that idea, but she blocked it quickly and didn't let the other party say it out loud.
She stretched and leaned back, kicked off her slippers, put her feet on the chair, and picked up the cat who was sleeping soundly beside her.
"Want me to meet you?"
Hearing that he didn't go, Li Yucheng's expression relaxed after being worried for a whole day.
"Why didn't you reply to my message this afternoon?"
"I'm working on the draft."
"You can come back after you finish painting."
"Will you video chat after you finish painting?"
Li Yucheng didn't say anything, but stared at the camera with a slightly cold expression. His brows, which had just relaxed, showed signs of gathering together again.
"Ni Jia?"
"There are a lot of spam messages," Ni Jia said, stroking the cat and looking very calm in the face of the black face. "It's normal to miss one."
After only two days, his attitude took a sharp turn for the worse. Li Yucheng couldn't figure out why, and his mood became irritable.
But he still suppressed his temper and asked with a little patience: "What's wrong with you?"
Ni Jia didn't say anything.
“What problems are you having at work?”
Ni Jia glanced at the lens and teased the cat without any expression.
"How did I offend you?"
"No."
"Why are you suddenly angry?"
"I'm not angry." She felt that Li Yucheng was almost stupid. The message was so obvious, but he still didn't hear it.
"I'll go back tomorrow."
"Won't it take about ten days?"
"Will I still be able to find you on the tenth day?" Li Yucheng's tone became heavier, and he added a sense of helplessness at the end: "You can be angry, but you have to tell me the reason."
Actually, it was nothing. Ni Jia just thought this guy was a bit dull. In the afternoon, she was confirming the color palette in the factory, and two messages popped up on her phone in succession.
One was an advertisement starting with 106, and the other was from Li Yucheng. If she was a little more careless, Li Yucheng's text message would be ignored.
It's been so long since I came back, but apart from the initial message of adding a friend, I haven't received any application from Li Yucheng again.
Of course, she would not take the initiative to add him, but Li Yucheng, a straight man, obviously didn't think there was a problem and seemed to be happy as long as they could get in touch.
Ni Jia wanted to tell the other party that there is a difference between getting a number and getting WeChat.
In the age of big information, the former is not a secret, but the latter has a threshold.
"Not angry." Ni Jia continued to tease the old turtle: "Maybe it's down."
Shutdown? He was still on video call. Li Yucheng gritted his teeth and blurted out word by word: "Do I look stupid?"
Ni Jia immediately nodded in affirmation.
He didn't look like he was really angry. Li Yucheng was almost laughing out of anger. He was completely confused and could only keep guessing, not even confessing the incident just now.
"I'm used to it. I didn't ask for any wine."
"Oh, I thought you wanted an ice drink." Ni Jia hugged the cat and rubbed his chin against the king's head: "So that's how it is."
The door rang, and Li Yucheng got up reluctantly to open the door. He placed the honey water on the bar, and deliberately adjusted the rear camera to take a close-up.
"Saw?"
"Hmm." Ni Jia suppressed his laughter and commented: "They didn't even give us a lemon slice. This hotel is quite perfunctory."
Li Yucheng cut the camera back and drank half the cup in one breath. He actually didn't like honey very much, but Ni Jia asked him to drink it, so he drank it.
"Did you watch the live broadcast this afternoon?"
Ni Jia looked completely clueless: "What live broadcast?"
In the past, the other party would take great pains to find out about his movements, but today there was such a big acquisition that, not to mention the newspapers, it was at least on the hot searches, and this woman was completely unaware of it.
Li Yucheng stared at the screen and choked again, and was silent for a few seconds.
“I acquired Baixing.”
"Baixing Entertainment?" Ni Jia was shocked.
Five years ago, this entertainment company was at its peak. How could it end up being acquired?
"Ah."
"How could that be?" Ni Jia blinked.
"In the past two years, corruption investigations have been tightened, and artists under our brand either have tax problems or have bad personal reputations."
Li Yucheng's tone was flat. This was not the main point he wanted to say at all, but Ni Jia wanted to listen, so he still explained patiently.
"After that, several big productions failed to pass the review, and the funding chain was cut off."
Who would have thought that Ni Jia had been in Switzerland for the past few years and had no idea about domestic news. In the past, he had a lot of free time and would just sit on the sofa and watch TV series.
There are still several stars she likes under Baixing. Once a woman's gossipy heart is aroused, she wants to know the result immediately.
"Who?"
"Where are Xu Yaxin and Yang Haoqiang?" Ni Jia asked nervously, "Are they okay?"
"Xu Yaxin is a mistress." Li Yucheng raised his eyebrows: "As for Yang Haoqiang...why do you care so much?"
Without waiting for Li Yucheng to answer, Ni Jia had already started checking on the computer. As soon as he typed in the three words "Yang Haoqiang", related news in recent days popped up one after another.
She leaned in to take a closer look and breathed a sigh of relief: "Phew~ That's a close call. He's still active recently. It seems that nothing has happened."
"How did Xu Yaxin become a mistress? I'm still attracted by her looks."
As she said this, she typed these three words into the computer again. The picture that popped up was shocking. The other person was a Mediterranean man 20 years older than her, the president of a company.
"God, she's really hungry."
Li Yucheng's focus was not on these old news at all. Seeing that the other party was engrossed in reading, he had to knock on the screen to remind him.
"There's a living person here, do you want to take care of him first?"
