Although he didn't really want to see this woman, he also knew that if he didn't see her, she would continue to pester him. This was a good opportunity to clarify things properly.
They arranged to meet at a coffee shop far away. Liu Yifeng had hardly ever been there before; it seemed this woman was indeed cautious.
"Speak, what is it?" Upon arriving, he saw the woman sitting in a secluded spot, wearing sunglasses.
If it weren't for special reasons, he would never have met this woman again.
"It was Sister Jin's idea to find you before. It had nothing to do with me. I hope you don't misunderstand. You must have misunderstood in the lounge before, which is why you said those things to me. But I can forgive you."
Yun Duo'er still had that somewhat haughty demeanor. Even when explaining to others, she seemed so noble, as if she wasn't looking down on anything the other person did.
"Hmph, since you look down on people so much, why did you still ask me to explain? But I also have something to say to you. Please don't contact me whenever you feel like it in the future. We're not that close, and I don't pay that much attention to you, so I don't remember when I met you. Don't always think that everyone revolves around you; it will only make people look down on you even more."
After speaking, Liu Yifeng turned and left, paying the bill as he went. It was as if this small amount of money had bought him some peace.
Yun Duo'er was once again put in an awkward position. Her eyes, hidden beneath her sunglasses, were filled with fury. If someone hadn't been present, she would have likely smashed the coffee cup in front of her.
With the third episode of the show about to be filmed, Liu Yifeng also made some revisions to the script. He still wanted to incorporate Tong Tong's suggestions. This way, he could inform everyone and hope they would all be more rational.
"If I remember correctly, today is Wednesday, and there are still two days before we start filming." As the workday neared its end, a director from the "Chao Youliao" program team actually showed up, which surprised him.
The other party seemed a bit embarrassed. "Yes, Teacher Liu, you remember correctly. It's just that I came to see you about something private."
Liu Yifeng could tell he had something on his mind, otherwise, he wouldn't have come at this hour. He glanced at his watch and felt he still had some time, so he invited him to sit down.
He figured the director was here to discuss matters related to the show, perhaps just tweaking some lines. It shouldn't be anything major and wouldn't take much time.
"It's like this, Teacher Liu. Actually, it's my fault. I'm truly sorry, and I've always wanted to tell you, but I was too embarrassed to come. Yet, I felt I couldn't live with myself if I didn't tell you, so I came today."
The director's preamble made Liu Yifeng instantly feel that the matter was not simple.
"Go ahead."
"It's like this, the third episode of the show might need some changes. There might be a mysterious guest who will come on set to ask some questions about you. What are your thoughts on this?"
The director took a deep breath and revealed the matter that had been weighing on his mind for a long time.
"A mysterious guest? You must know who it is, then." Liu Yifeng wasn't interested in the new segment but was rather curious about this mysterious guest. Suddenly, he had a bad premonition.
Seeing that Liu Yifeng's attitude wasn't particularly averse, the director felt somewhat relieved.
"Yun Duo'er. I'm sure you've heard of her. She's quite gentle." The director's tension clearly eased, and he was no longer as nervous.
However, Liu Yifeng looked dismissive. "Gentle? I believe our previous contract was very clear. If you insist on changing it now, we can directly proceed with legal action. I have other matters to attend to, so I'll be leaving now."
After speaking, Liu Yifeng checked the time. He thought it was something important, but it turned out to be such trivial matters. He had initially thought this production team was different from other entertainment programs, but now it seemed they were still as unscrupulous for the sake of popularity.
This truly crossed a line for Liu Yifeng. He left immediately, giving the director no chance to retort.
This left the director dumbfounded. Based on his responses, he thought Liu Yifeng wouldn't object to a guest joining, but it didn't seem like he liked it at all.
"Teacher Liu, if you don't like it, we can proceed according to the signed contract!" The director was truly flustered and hurried out, but Liu Yifeng's figure was already out of sight.
He sighed helplessly, and it was clear the director had started to panic.
When Liu Yifeng returned home, Tong Tong had already gone to bed, so he didn't disturb him. The director's matter had made him feel very agitated.
It wasn't just because of this director; he felt that Yun Duo'er had been constantly hovering around him lately, which was why he was so irritable.
"Why do you have time to send Tong Tong today?"
Liu Yifeng had woken up particularly early that day, intending to take Tong Tong to school. However, Su Wanru's car was already waiting downstairs.
"I woke up a bit early today. I haven't sent Tong Tong to school in a while, so I decided to go today," Liu Yifeng said to Sun Wanru.
Su Wanru nodded understandingly. "Then let's go. We can go together." After saying that, she opened the car door for the father and son.
"Yay, yay! Auntie and Daddy are sending me to school today. Tong Tong is so happy!" Tong Tong jumped with joy; it was evident he was delighted.
Liu Yifeng also felt that he had been too busy lately and hadn't had much time to pay attention to Tong Tong. If it weren't for the director's words yesterday making him so agitated and wanting to relax, he probably wouldn't have chosen to rest today.
"I think you must be quite tired recently." After dropping Tong Tong off at school, they found a place to have some breakfast.
Su Wanru hadn't seen Liu Yifeng in a long time and had only watched his program. Looking at the man in formal attire on the television, she indeed felt a bit unfamiliar.
"Yes, but fortunately, I realized it not too late. I've really been too busy lately and haven't properly seen Tong Tong. Seeing him today, he seems to have grown taller again."
Liu Yifeng spoke as he ate, not appearing particularly happy.
"What's wrong? Is something bothering you lately?" Su Wanru knew Liu Yifeng reasonably well and could clearly sense that his mood wasn't very upbeat today.
Upon hearing Su Wanru's words, Liu Yifeng shook his head and smiled. "No, I'm very happy. It's probably just that I've been too busy recently."
She knew he was lying, but since he didn't intend to elaborate, she didn't press further.
