I was criticized on a dating reality show, but I retaliated and became an internet sensation.

On the way, Fang Zhizi couldn't help but ask, "Sister Zizi, since you have the ability to deal with her, why don't you just kick her out?"

Shu Zi clicked her tongue: "What's this talk about solving anything? We live in a society governed by law, so let's be civilized."

She paused, then said:

"We're not going to hold it against her because she only has a few days left to film anyway. It's not worth delaying the entire production schedule for her sake."

Fang Zhizi nodded thoughtfully: "I understand, it's still a matter of perspective."

As they approached the RV, Fang Zhizi very tactfully stopped in her tracks:

"Sister Zizi, I won't disturb your time with Yan Shen any longer, I'm leaving now!"

After saying that, he ran off in a flash, and after taking a couple of steps, he turned back and added:

"See you tomorrow! Remember to tell me if your hand hurts, and I'll buy you some safflower oil!"

Shu Zi didn't turn her head, but raised her hand and gave an "OK" sign:

"Don't worry, if it really hurts, I'll just say it was you who hit me, and I'll get my work injury reimbursed."

Fang Zhizi stumbled and almost fell, turning around to shout, "Sister Zizi, you have no heart!"

Shu Zi smiled as she walked to the RV door and opened it.

The moment the car door opened, she poked half her head in and said with a smile to the person inside:

"Sir, thank you for waiting. Would you like any special services?"

Gu Yan was holding his phone when he heard this and raised an eyebrow.

Shu Zi's smile froze: "...What are you doing?"

Gu Yan slowly turned his phone screen over to show her.

Lin Xueting's face suddenly appeared on the screen.

Shu Zi froze on the spot: "...Mom."

Lin Xueting's cheerful voice came from the other end of the phone:

"Oh, my darling daughter, special services? What kind of special services? Tell Mommy in detail."

Shu Zi: "…………"

She took a deep breath, calmly climbed into the car, closed the door behind her, and flashed a standard, obedient smile at the screen:

"Mom, I was just joking with him. Why did you suddenly video call?"

Lin Xueting: "Oh, I called Ayan."

"You've been busy lately. I heard he went to your film set and wanted to ask how you've been, but as soon as I answered, I heard someone trying to sell you special services."

She smiled knowingly: "What, my daughter's developing a side business on set?"

Shu Zi glared at Gu Yan, who leaned back in his seat, a smile playing on his lips, looking back at her innocently.

Shu Zi turned her head and continued to smile at the screen:

"Mommy, you misheard me. I said 'technical support.' Yes, I was asking him about technical issues."

Lin Xueting remained silent for a while:

"...Nuonuo, your mother may not have the same hearing as you young people, but she's not to the point of hallucinations."

Shu Zi gave up struggling and slumped into her seat: "Mom, give me some face."

Lin Xueting laughed: "Alright, alright, come closer so Mom can get a good look at you."

Shu Zi obediently leaned closer to the screen, and the mother and daughter chatted for a few more minutes before Lin Xueting hung up the phone, satisfied.

Shu Zi stared at the black screen, let out a long breath, and then turned to look at Gu Yan:

Why didn't you tell me you were video chatting with my mom?!

Gu Yan smiled and said, "Baby, you didn't even give me a chance to say anything. You just came up here and asked me if I wanted any special services."

Shu Zi: "..."

sloppy.

Gu Yan's gaze shifted downwards: "What happened to your hand?"

"Um?"

Shu Zi glanced down.

Goodness, I slapped someone too hard just now, my palm is still red.

She withdrew her hand without changing her expression: "I did something."

Gu Yan looked at her: "What is it?"

Shu Zi smiled slightly, her tone serious: "To act on behalf of Heaven, to punish evil and promote good, and to maintain world peace."

Gu Yan was silent for two seconds: "...Speak like a human being."

Shu Zi: "I slapped someone."

Gu Yan: "..."

"Did the slap hurt?"

Shu Zi looked down at her palm again and nodded: "To be honest, a little, but her face should hurt more."

She shook her hand, then remembered something and picked up her phone to search for Yaojing Media.

She was stunned the moment the search results popped up.

The latest board of directors list of Yaojing Media has been updated. The name of General Manager Zhang, who was originally on the list, has disappeared and has been replaced by several unfamiliar names.

She clicked on several news articles that had just been released that afternoon, all of which were announcements about personnel changes at the top of Yaojing Media.

She looked up at Gu Yan: "General Manager Zhang of Yaojing Media, gone?"

Gu Yan leaned back in his chair and said in a nonchalant tone, "Yeah, that's all."

Shu Zi blinked: "You did this?"

"smoothly."

He reached out and took her phone, placing it aside.

"He already had some questionable related-party transactions under his name, which couldn't withstand investigation. I just had someone submit a document; he couldn't handle the rest himself."

Shu Zi stared at him for several seconds: "...When did you start investigating?"

"This afternoon," he answered casually, "when you were filming."

Shu Zi opened her mouth, but for a moment she didn't know what to say.

She had just finished slapping someone when he had already taken down the entire person's backing.

She was silent for a moment, then couldn't help but laugh: "Gu Yan, you're going to spoil me."

Gu Yan looked up at her, a slight smile playing on his lips: "Even if she spoils me, it's still my problem, it doesn't matter."

Shu Zi smiled, leaned forward, and kissed him on the lips, her eyes shining: "This is a reward for you."

Gu Yan chuckled softly, reached out and held the back of her neck, deepening the brief kiss.

Shu Zi was pulled by him and fell onto his lap, her hands on his chest, looking up at him in response.

When he finally released her, her breathing was already erratic.

Gu Yan rubbed his thumb against the corner of her lips: "That's all?"

Shu Zi looked at him, tilted her head, and asked, "...How many more do you want?"

Gu Yan didn't answer, but lowered his head and pecked her lips again before pulling away: "Next time, apply for an extension of the validity period."

Shu Zi smiled and said, "It depends on your performance."

Gu Yan glanced down at the time, then looked up at her: "What do you want to eat tonight?"

"Um……"

Shu Zi thought for a moment:

"There's a barbecue stall nearby that Xiaozhi mentioned before, saying it's pretty good, but they don't do delivery, and I'm too lazy to go there right now."

Gu Yan: "It's alright, let Wu Qiwei go buy it. Let's go back to the hotel first."

Shu Zi: "...I think Assistant Wu is quite helpless sometimes too."

"I offered him an annual salary of 400 million."

Shu Zi immediately changed her tune: "Then it's alright, he deserves this helplessness."

Gu Yan chuckled softly, sent a message to Wu Qiwei, and then put away his phone: "Let's go back to the hotel first."

After the two got out of the RV, Gu Yan led Shu Zi towards the vehicle.

A night breeze blew in her face, and Shu Zi shrank her neck and moved closer to him.

Back at the hotel, the two took a shower first.

When Gu Yan came out after washing up, there was a knock on the door. He went to open it.

Wu Qiwei stood outside the door, carrying two large bags of barbecue. The aroma was irresistible even through the bags.
