The Way of Heaven Rewards Diligence in Film and Television
Chapter 9 Hu Haili, Gao Lan
Early in the morning, Lin Yang went out for a run around the neighborhood and then arrived at the community's fitness area.
Looking at the various fitness equipment inside, and taking advantage of the fact that there weren't many people around, Lin Yang started running, jumping, and dodging them as if they were obstacles, in order to train his agility and reaction ability.
After playing for a while, Lin Yang slipped and hurriedly backed away to steady himself, his feet stumbling as he retreated directly to the road outside the fitness area.
"Hey..." Amidst a low exclamation, a tall woman dressed in a gray suit, exuding a capable and professional air, walked over while on the phone. Caught off guard by Lin Yang's sudden appearance, she had no time to retreat or dodge.
As the tall woman watched her phone being knocked away, she instinctively and hastily retreated. Lin Yang nimbly reached out and caught the phone.
"He..." Unexpectedly, Lin Yang reacted so quickly that she stumbled and lost her balance, about to fall backward.
Seeing the woman's condition, Lin Yang quickly stepped forward, grabbed the hem of her clothes, and used the momentum to pull her forward, catching her around the waist before she was about to fall.
The tall woman, realizing what was happening, clearly smelled the sweat on Lin Yang and saw the bulging muscles on his arms. Her face flushed slightly, and she quickly used her momentum to push Lin Yang away, saying, "Let go..."
"Excuse me, here's your phone," Lin Yang said, quickly handing her his phone.
Hu Haili, having just put on the suit jacket that Lin Yang had practically dragged off halfway, reached out to take the phone and frowned slightly as she looked at the sweat stains on it.
"Um, I'm so sorry! I slipped..." Lin Yang quickly apologized, "Is your foot alright?"
"It's okay, I'll be more careful next time. What if I run into an elderly person or a child?" Hu Haili said, then slung her bag over her shoulder and left.
Watching her departing figure, Lin Yang felt slightly embarrassed. It was too much of a coincidence. Fortunately, he reacted quickly enough, and his recent training had not been in vain.
"She has a very flexible waist, is quite tall, has long legs, and most importantly, has a great figure and is quite good-looking!"
Lin Yang was surprised to unexpectedly encounter such a stunningly beautiful woman in his neighborhood: "She looks vaguely familiar! Have I seen her before? Or is she a female character in a drama?"
However, Lin Yang didn't dwell on it too much. He went home, took a shower, made himself breakfast, ate it, and then leisurely walked to the company.
The former director's office now belongs to Lin Yang.
After turning on his computer, Lin Yang first looked at the marketing plan that Gao Liang had just sent, and then called Gao Liang over to ask him some detailed questions.
After saying that, Gao Liang couldn't help but add, "Director, Sister Lan didn't come, and she didn't ask for leave either..."
"No leave requested? Unexcused absence? What's going on? Did you call her to ask?" Lin Yang asked, frowning.
"She's not answering the phone," Gao Liang's words made Lin Yang frown even more.
"Has she been acting strangely lately?" Lin Yang asked.
"No! It was fine! I was quite happy when I left work yesterday, all excited..." Gao Liang thought for a moment and said.
"Do you know where she lives?" Lin Yang then asked.
"Well... I don't know. I doubt Xiaoqin and Xinxin know either. They probably only know a general location."
Gao Liang shook his head and said, "You're not thinking of going to her house to find her, are you? She's over thirty, not a child..."
"Because of this, there was a sudden loss of contact. I was worried that something might have happened to her. Do you have her boyfriend's phone number?" Lin Yang asked, frowning.
"No..." Gao Liang shook his head: "Director, don't let Lan Jie's age fool you; she's actually quite sensitive and immature sometimes. It's not surprising that she would do something so unreliable. I think it's probably related to her boyfriend. He's clearly dragging her along; it's incomprehensible..."
"Alright, try to keep in touch with Xin Xin and the others!" Lin Yang said.
After Gao Liang nodded and left, Lin Yang sent a WeChat message to Sister Lan and then went about his own business.
In the afternoon, Sister Lan finally came to the company and went straight to Lin Yang's office.
Seeing that she looked noticeably tired and her eyes were red and swollen, Lin Yang couldn't help but say, "Sister Lan, I don't want to ask any more questions. Just take care of your personal matters as soon as possible and don't let it affect your work. Should I grant you a couple of days off to rest?"
"No need, I'll adjust as soon as possible. It's just that I need to find a new place to live and move, so I'm afraid I won't be able to work overtime for the next couple of days," Gao Lanlian said.
"Okay..." Lin Yang nodded and then hesitated for a moment before saying, "If you really can't find a suitable place, you can stay at my place for a while. I can reduce the rent for you."
"Is this...appropriate?" Gao Lan was somewhat tempted, yet also a little hesitant.
"If you find it inconvenient, then forget it," Lin Yang said casually.
"It's convenient! There's nothing inconvenient about it," Gao Lan said with a self-deprecating wry smile. "Director, I really can't find a more suitable place right now. But, wouldn't it be too much of a bother for you?"
"It's okay, just consider it sharing an apartment. You can move out anytime you find a suitable place," Lin Yang said.
In the real world, Lin Yang also shared an apartment with others and was used to the life of sharing an apartment. Suddenly living alone, although he felt free, he was also a bit bored most of the time.
Although Gao Lan sometimes likes to criticize and lecture people, she is a good person, works hard, and gets along well with her colleagues.
She's the type of person who likes to express herself, but she's also quite sincere. She considers herself very independent, but actually has a bit of a people-pleasing personality and wants to be perfect in everything she does.
Otherwise, Lin Yang wouldn't have gone to the trouble of letting her stay at his house temporarily.
Of course, part of the reason is that Gao Lan is a stunning and mature beauty, easily scoring over 80 points if not 90.
Nobody dislikes sharing an apartment with a beautiful woman, provided, of course, that she's not a nuisance.
That evening, Lin Yang, who wasn't working overtime, went back and prepared an empty room for Gao Lan. Gao Lan also moved in with a small amount of clothes, cosmetics, and other things.
After Gao Lan brought two suitcases, a backpack, and a laptop bag into the room and finished tidying up, it was already quite late.
When she opened the door, she saw Lin Yang making a late-night snack in the kitchen and hurried over, asking, "Do you need any help?"
"No need, Sister Lan, you rest first, I'll be done right away," Lin Yang said.
Watching Lin Yang cook skillfully, and looking at this nicely decorated house, Gao Lan couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions.
Lin Yang really knows how to live well, and owning a house in Beijing is something that many people who have struggled for years to achieve.
Although her boyfriend has a good job, he is a few years older than her and is almost middle-aged, so he still can't afford to buy a house and settle down in Beijing.
Before long, Lin Yang brought the prepared late-night snack to the table and invited Gao Lan to eat together.
"No need, I..." Gao Lan was about to refuse when her stomach growled in protest.
"Sister Lan, you haven't been so busy moving that you haven't even had time to eat, have you?" Seeing Gao Lan's embarrassed expression, Lin Yang said, "Sit down and eat! I made a lot, and if you don't eat, I won't be able to finish it."
Gao Lan then walked to the dining table and sat down. She had just taken a bite of what Lin Yang had made when she couldn't help but look at Lin Yang with a slightly surprised expression.
"What's wrong? Is it not to your liking?" Lin Yang asked.
"No, it's just so delicious! I never expected you to be such a good cook," Gao Lan exclaimed in surprise.
Lin Yang chuckled, "But you wouldn't be so hungry as to cry, would you?"
Hearing this, Gao Lan wiped her eyes and couldn't help but smile, but she felt a little bittersweet. If this were her home, if her boyfriend were as capable at work and good at cooking as Lin Yang, how wonderful that would be?
