Love Apartment: Yifei is my junior aunt

Chapter 231 The Postponed Live Broadcast

Guan Gu looked at Zhang Wei incredulously: "Zhang Wei, is this your car?"

Zeng Xiaoxian went even further, directly questioning, "Zhang Wei, you actually have a car?"

Zhang Wei chuckled and said, "That's right, I'm at least a highly educated intellectual."

Zeng Xiaoxian and Guan Gu looked incredulous. These days, very few graduate students own cars, let alone a convertible sports car.

Even if Zhang Wei is an excellent saver, based on their understanding of his financial situation, they know that Zhang Wei can only afford to buy four tires for this car at most.

"Okay, this isn't my car."

Zhang Wei knew he couldn't fool them about the car, so he could only honestly say, "This is my teacher's car. He left it at the shop for maintenance and asked me to drive it back for him tonight."

"Zhang Wei, your teacher must be very rich," Guan Gu asked, looking at Zhang Wei's temporary car.

Although both are convertible sports cars, this one is several times more expensive than Yu Mo's entry-level convertible.

Zhang Wei said with a smile, "Yes, my teacher is not only rich, but also very good to me."

"He knew I wasn't well-off, so he let me use his staff meal card. Over the years, I've saved a lot on food expenses..."

Seeing the look of reminiscence on Zhang Wei's face, as if he was about to continue speaking, Zeng Xiaoxian, who was in a hurry to get to the TV station, quickly interrupted Zhang Wei.

"Zhang Wei, we can save the story of how your teacher's kindness is as deep as a mountain for later."

Zeng Xiaoxian's eyes were full of pleading: "Do you have anything urgent to do right now? If not, could you please take me and Guan Gu to the TV station first?"

"I have a very important live broadcast tonight, and I'm running out of time."

"Get in the car." Zhang Wei nodded in agreement without much hesitation.

Zeng Xiaoxian jumped up from his wheelchair with joy: "That's great, Zhang Wei, you're simply the best... Golden Armor Warrior I've ever met."

[In his inner world, Zeng Xiaoxian looked at the Ultraman and golden-armored warriors on his left and right, and his face lit up with excitement.]

Look, look, what character and luck really mean!

[Ultraman Guan Gu arrived riding a flying star, followed by a golden-armored warrior appearing amidst confusion.]

Heaven hasn't forsaken me! Heaven hasn't forsaken me!

【Hahahahaha...】

[Zeng Xiaoxian puts his hands on his hips and lets out a mesmerizing laugh.]

Xiaoxian and Guangu quickly folded up the wheelchair and put it in the trunk, then got into the sports car one after the other.

"Destination TV station... Holy crap, the elevated Middle Ring Road is completely jammed!" Zhang Wei exclaimed as he fiddled with the navigation.

Xiaoxian and Guangu looked at each other, and finally let out a sigh of relief.

"well……"

Zhang Wei chose a route that bypassed the Middle Ring Road overpass. As he drove, he asked, "By the way, why are you two waiting for a car at the intersection? Where are the others?"

"And Teacher Zeng, how come you're in a wheelchair now?"

"That's a long story..."

Zeng Xiaoxian was about to tell Zhang Wei the whole story when the slow speed of the sports car made him anxious again.

"Dear Zhang Wei, can we drive a little faster?"

Zeng Xiaoxian said mournfully, "At this rate, we'll be driving until next year."

"Teacher Zeng, calm down."

"My driving instructor taught me that with a calm mind, one can achieve whatever one desires."

"This is unbelievable! Turns out you and Zhanbo came from the same driving school!"

Upon hearing those familiar words, Zeng Xiaoxian felt like banging his head against the car door.

"Zhang Wei, tell me what this driving instructor's name is! If I'm late for my live stream today, I'm going to fight him to the death!"

Zhang Wei recalled carefully: "I forgot his name, but I remember he was 1.85 meters tall, with a muscular body, and his open palm was bigger than my face."

"How about I just give you the driving school's address?"

Zeng Xiaoxian was stunned for a moment, then he squinted and grinned mischievously, "You're so annoying~"

"Zhang Wei, you know me, I like to make jokes, but they're all just for fun."

"We are all civilized people, how could civilized people lay a hand on each other?"

Seeing Zeng Xiaoxian go from being all bared and claws to cowering into a ball, Guan Gu and Zhang Wei couldn't help but burst into laughter.

After the two finished laughing, Guan Gu, who was sitting in the back seat, reminded Zhang Wei: "Zhang Wei, you'd better drive a little faster, otherwise Teacher Zeng might not fight with your driving school instructor, but he definitely will."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Wei burst into laughter: "With his fighting ability, any random person in the apartment could easily defeat him with one hand."

"Does he have the ability to fight me to the death?"

"When I said 'desperately,' I meant that Teacher Zeng would find a rope and hang himself at your dormitory door in the middle of the night."

Zhang Wei's smile suddenly froze.

If Teacher Zeng hangs himself at the entrance of his dormitory, wouldn't he have lost a life before even starting his lawsuit?

Zhang Wei quickly sat up straight and said in a deep voice, "Get ready, I'm going to speed things up."

Zeng Xiaoxian was initially dismissive, after all, with Zhan Bo's outstanding performance as an example, he didn't believe Zhang Wei could accelerate very fast.

I'll be thankful as long as I can get to the TV station in time.

Anyway, I've checked all the drafts I need to, and I've gone through all the pre-event procedures. As long as I arrive on time, there won't be any problems.

Zeng Xiaoxian was just thinking when Zhang Wei stepped on the gas and almost sent him flying.

If he hadn't been wearing a seatbelt, his head would have hit the passenger seat today.

"Zhang Wei, calm down! Calm down!"

Zeng Xiaoxian shouted in a panic, "Didn't you say the coach taught you to have a calm mind and achieve your goals naturally?"

Zhang Wei said nonchalantly, "I've had my driver's license for so many years, this kind of talk can't fool me anymore."

"Moreover, the saying 'If you want to achieve something, you will achieve it' can be interpreted in a completely different way."

"That means I can have the car arrive whenever I want!"

With the roar of the engine, the sports car sped towards the television station at the road's maximum speed limit.

……

With less than ten minutes left before the recording of the program, the ill-fated Zeng Xiaoxian finally arrived at the TV station he had been longing for.

"Great! I made it! I finally made it!"

Zeng Xiaoxian quickly unbuckled his seatbelt, opened the car door, and rushed towards the TV station's main entrance.

Guan Gu patted Zhang Wei on the shoulder: "Zhang Wei, we owe you a lot this time."

"It's nothing, just a small favor."

Zhang Wei parked the car, helped Guan Gu get his wheelchair out, and then waved goodbye to Guan Gu.

"Guan Gu, I'll head back now. After all, I'm worried about driving such an expensive car for too long."

"Please remember to say goodbye to Teacher Zeng for me later."

"it is good."

After Zhang Wei turned the car around and left the TV station, Guan Gu hurriedly pushed his wheelchair toward the TV station's entrance.

Just as he reached the entrance of the TV station, Zeng Xiaoxian hurriedly returned.

"Sorry, Guan Gu, I almost forgot about you here. Has Zhang Wei already gone back?"

"Um."

"We really owe him a lot this time, and of course, we also owe you a lot, Guan Gu."

Zeng Xiaoxian, who arrived at the TV station in time, finally calmed down and walked forward with his arms outstretched to give Guan Gu a big hug.

"Good brother!"

Guan Gu patted Teacher Zeng on the back: "You're welcome."

"Let's go find Lisa. You're the luckiest person today to get to see my brother Xian's charm firsthand."

Zeng Xiaoxian showed his credentials to the security personnel at the entrance and let Guan Gu in.

He led Guan Gu all the way to the live broadcast site of "A Date with You".

Lisa was dressed like a female elite in her usual professional attire, but for some reason, the entire recording studio felt rather relaxed, not at all like the busy atmosphere that usually precedes a live broadcast.

The moment Lisa saw Zeng Xiaoxian, her eyes lit up. She casually said a few words to the staff member next to her and sent him away.

"Lisa~" Zeng Xiaoxian squinted and gave a fawning smile.

However, Lisa completely ignored Seohyun. She shyly smoothed her hair, then hurriedly ran behind Seohyun and peeked out the door.

Seeing that there was nothing outside the door, and that Zeng Xiaoxian was standing next to a man she didn't recognize, Lisa rarely showed such deep disappointment.

"Where's Xiaobu? Why isn't my Xiaobu here?"

Lisa looked up at Zeng Xiaoxian and asked, "Didn't you say all your friends would be coming tonight? Where's Xiaobu?"

Xiaoxian smiled awkwardly.

Before today, Lisa had never mentioned Ziqiao to him at work, and he thought Lisa had already let it go.

Unexpectedly, she never forgot Ziqiao.

That's strange, does Ziqiao really have that much charm?

"Lisa, this is a long story. Why don't we sit down and talk about it slowly?"

Lisa wasn't buying it: "Since it's a long story, let's keep it short."

"You're a host, you should at least have the ability to summarize the key points, right?"

"How is that possible?!"

Zeng Xiaoxian coughed a few times and briefly stated the truth: "Xiao Bu and my other friends were stuck on the overpass in traffic. Only with everyone's help was I able to get here in time."

"I see." Lisa nodded with a hint of disappointment.

She had thought she would finally see Xiao Bu, whom she had been longing to see, but in the end, she missed the chance.

"Okay, let's not talk about personal matters during work hours."

Lisa quickly composed herself and instructed Xiaoxian, "Zeng Xiaoxian, there's something I haven't had time to tell you yet. The live stream will be postponed by an hour."

"Take advantage of this hour to touch up your makeup and go over the script with Ruyu again, so that you don't make any mistakes during the live broadcast later."

"Go over the manuscript?" Guan Gu asked, puzzled.

Xiaoxian explained to Guangu, "It's normal for interview programs to go over the script, and the more live the program is, the more you need to go over the script."

"What topics to discuss, what content will be effective, and how to answer what questions—these are all things that the host and the interviewees agree on beforehand."

"Otherwise, if something goes wrong during the live stream, who can take responsibility?"

"Whoosh..."

Zeng Xiaoxian asked curiously, "But Lisa, why is the prime-time slot being delayed by an hour?"

"Why do you know so much? Do you want to die?!"

Lisa glared fiercely at Zeng Xiaoxian, who immediately turned into a trembling little chick.

"You need to be smart; this matter must be kept a secret."

Lisa looked around and, seeing that everyone's attention was elsewhere, she covered her mouth and said to Seohyun.

"A top-level leader is also stuck in traffic on the Central Elevated Road. If he doesn't come, which of these other high-ranking leaders would dare to start a live broadcast?"

Zeng Xiaoxian suddenly realized, but then a new question arose in his mind.

He covered his mouth and whispered to Lisa, "If the top leader is stuck on the elevated road, it probably won't be open for another hour."

"Do you think a top leader like him has to figure out how to get here on time like you do?"

"The station is ready to send out a drone to rescue the top leader. Once we bring him back, we'll have a group of leaders go up to greet him and give him a welcome dinner. An hour should be enough time."

"If it's really not enough, then we can just postpone it again. Anyway, today's program only features you and Chen Ruyu, and it's all our own people from the station."

Zeng Xiaoxian was completely dumbfounded. He muttered to himself, "This is actually possible?"

Compared to the relaxed and casual demeanor of this super-leader, what was the point of my exhausting journey here?

"It's a little bit of capriciousness of power. Many times, the rules aren't that they can't be broken, but that they can't be broken for you."

Lisa repeatedly warned, "The official reason given now is force majeure. We absolutely cannot let anyone know that it's because some super leader is late that everyone is waiting here in vain."

"If you dare tell anyone, you're dead!"

Zeng Xiaoxian patted his chest and assured him, "Don't worry, I will absolutely keep quiet."

"If you ask me, postponing the live broadcast is a good thing. It gives you more time to prepare and try to leave a good impression on the management."

After giving instructions to Zeng Xiaoxian, Lisa went back to her work.

Zeng Xiaoxian, on the other hand, fell into deep thought.

I'm coming

The promised bonus chapter is finally here! There will be bonus chapters irregularly over the next two weeks.

However, the pigeon's writing speed is indeed slow, and some content is indeed difficult to write. All I can say is that the pigeon will do its best.

Thank you for your support.
