Chapter 433 must be like this!
With everything arranged, Yu Huan used the excuse of being busy to politely decline Brother Wu's invitation to have lunch together.
He drove his BMW, not choosing to turn back along the route he had come from, but instead heading straight towards May 1st Square with a clear destination in mind.
We drove leisurely along the way, the street scenes outside the car window flashing by like a slideshow.
When the car came to a stop at a traffic light, the roar of the engine also temporarily ceased.
Taking advantage of this brief moment, Yu Huan turned slightly to the side, reached into the armrest box, and picked up the plastic file bag that Director Zhang had given him.
He gently opened the bag, pulled out a small stack of documents, and quickly focused his gaze on the text.
At a glance, one can tell that this is roughly the detailed compensation rules for this demolition.
However, with just a quick glance, he keenly noticed that the document was far less detailed than the information that Brother Wu had previously sent him, and it also lacked a lot of relevant content.
The document provided by Brother Da Wu contained a detailed and meticulous explanation and analysis of every possible compensation category, covering all aspects.
Looking at the document in front of us, it seems to only outline a simple framework, probably prepared specifically for those whose homes are being demolished.
The intention is obvious: to give the people being relocated a general understanding of the situation, but without allowing them to access the deeper, key information.
Yu Huan pondered for a moment, then noticed out of the corner of her eye that the red light was flashing faster, about to turn green and allow passage.
He deftly tucked it into the document bag with both hands, then tossed it gently. The document bag landed steadily on the passenger seat with a soft thud.
In an instant, the green light turned on.
Yu Huan immediately focused his attention on the road ahead, lightly pressed the accelerator, and the BMW started smoothly again, accelerating towards its destination.
After arriving at Wangfujing, Yu Huan parked her car and walked steadily into the mall, heading straight for the cosmetics section.
Among many big brands, his eyes were fixed on the La Mer counter.
Under the enthusiastic and incessant sales pitch of the saleswoman, Yu Huan smiled and let it go in one ear and out the other. After some selection, she finally bought a set of gift boxes with a fairly complete selection.
Afterwards, carrying the beautifully packaged skincare product, he strolled around the luxury goods area, thinking that since he was already there, he might as well take a look.
Unwittingly, he stopped in front of the Van Cleef & Arpels window, his eyes drawn to a four-leaf clover necklace.
The vibrant carnelian was carved into the shape of a four-leaf clover, shimmering with a warm luster under the dazzling lights.
He unconsciously rubbed his chin with his fingertips, and a beautiful image involuntarily surfaced in his mind:
If this necklace were to adorn my wife's swan-like neck, the four-leaf clover pendant would hang from that alluring, deep recess, large and white, smooth and delicate...
Although he knew in his heart that this thing might not be worth much in terms of materials, after some internal struggle and weighing of the options, he finally resolutely walked into the store.
After asking the saleswoman about the price, I learned that it was 20,000 yuan.
Having anticipated this, he calmly and boldly waved his hand and swiped his card for love without saying a word.
When Yu Huan came out of Wangfujing again, it was already 12:40.
The moment he stepped out of the mall, he was instantly transported away from the noisy, bustling, and somewhat stuffy environment.
Since he hadn't eaten lunch yet, his stomach was already rumbling, as if protesting his prolonged hunger.
He glanced down at the shopping bag in his hand, a slight smile playing on his lips, and walked straight toward the BMW parked by the roadside without pausing for a moment.
Upon reaching the car, he first put the shopping bags into the trunk, then quickly went around to the driver's side, opened the door, and got in.
Given the tight schedule, Yu Huan pressed the accelerator hard the whole way, and the car was going very fast. In just over ten minutes, he arrived at the Zaobao Building at lightning speed.
At this point in time, there was naturally not much decent food left in the cafeteria, and he wasn't the kind of boss who could cook for him.
With a change of heart, he turned around and walked to the convenience store next to the building. After some selection, he bought a bucket of spicy beef noodles, and also ordered a braised egg and a sausage.
To be honest, I haven't had this classic deluxe set meal in a long time, and I really miss it.
Yu Huan, carrying a bright red plastic bag, took the elevator to the twelfth floor, to the new media department, and went straight to the adjacent tea room.
As he walked, he raised his hand to take off his mask and neatly stuffed it into his pocket.
As soon as he turned the corner, the first thing that caught his eye was Wang Xianjiao's profile as she yawned with her mouth wide open.
The dark circles under his eyes, which were originally as dark as ink, have faded a bit at this moment, making him look less tired and haggard than he did in the morning.
The red tap of the water dispenser was gushing out hot water, which flowed steaming into the thermos below.
After yawning, Wang Xianjiao immediately took out two packets of coffee from her pocket, shook them, and then neatly stacked them together.
Then, working together with both hands, they skillfully tore open the opening.
Suddenly, she heard the rustling sound of a plastic bag.
She turned her head with a dazed look in her eyes and was startled to see Yu Huan fiddling with a bucket of instant noodles on the counter.
He blinked hard, as if trying to shake off the drowsiness and perk himself up, then greeted him with a smile: "Brother Yu, you just got back? Why are you eating instant noodles at this hour?"
Yu Huan knew that many people would see her when she left early and passed through the workroom.
In ancient times, there was a rule that high-ranking officials were exempt from punishment; today, attendance is assessed without regard to leadership.
He smiled calmly, lifted the lid of the instant noodle cup, and said slowly, "I went out to take care of some things, and I was so busy that I didn't even have time to eat."
Wang Xianjiao said "Oh," then reached out and turned off the tap, pouring the torn coffee powder into a thermos.
After putting the lid on, I shook it a few times carefully to ensure that the coffee grounds were fully mixed with the hot water.
Seeing Yu Huan carrying instant noodles toward the water dispenser, she quickly moved aside, coughing lightly as if to gather her thoughts, before speaking:
"Brother Yu, Su Su's song 'The Wind Rises' is really popular. Right now, most music bloggers are doing their best to promote it, and its popularity on Weibo is consistently high. Could our new media department take advantage of this trend and plan some related content? For example, we could do a song appreciation feature, or collect a lot of cover song submissions from fans and hold an online cover song contest? Maybe it could bring us a lot of traffic!"
Yu Huan reached out and turned on the red tap, watching the steaming hot water gurgle into the noodle cup. Instantly, the aroma of instant noodle seasoning rose up and quickly filled the surrounding air.
With a gentle smile on his face, he said in a calm tone, "Your idea is indeed commendable. However, as an official media outlet, we need to be more cautious and in-depth in our content planning. We cannot be too unconventional or blindly follow trends."
Wang Xianjiao nodded thoughtfully, her lips trembling slightly, just as she was about to speak in agreement—
However, before she could speak, Yu Huan added, "But your idea is really good. You can try to communicate with Sister Ru. As you know, Lin Su recently opened a studio Weibo account, and now is the time to carry out various activities to increase popularity and activate the account."
Wang Xianjiao subconsciously raised her hand and scratched her chin.
A slight hesitation appeared on her face as she said softly, "But Brother Yu, Sister Ru, as Su Su's manager, is extremely busy and never replies to our private messages!"
Yu Huan calmly turned off the tap, picked up a fork, and held the bucket lid firmly to prevent the heat from escaping too quickly.
He turned his head, looking quite confident, with a smile on his lips: "Tell her that I asked you to contact her, and she should take it a little more seriously, or at least be willing to spend some time looking at what you sent."
Wang Xianjiao's eyes lit up immediately, and she nodded quickly, "That's right! Brother Yu, you've met Sister Ru offline!"
But before she could finish speaking, a hint of doubt appeared on Wang Xianjiao's face, and she stammered, "But... Brother Yu... does it really work...?"
What if Sister Ru still ignores her? Wouldn't that be awkward?
"Why don't you go and give it a try?" Yu Huan smiled brightly, picked up her instant noodles, walked past her, and strolled out of the tea room at a leisurely pace.
Looking at Yu Huan's confident demeanor, Wang Xianjiao suddenly realized that this was the famous "Leader Brother," a prominent figure in the outside world.
Brother Yu, what is this...?
Should we let her use this as a pretext to justify her actions?
Wang Xianjiao followed closely behind Yu Huan. Thinking of this, she nodded vigorously, "Okay, Brother Huan, I'll give it a try!"
Yu Huan smiled lightly and waved her hand without turning her head.
As the lunch break drew to a close, many people were just waking up from their naps, and the office gradually became noisy and bustling.
Yu Huan kept her eyes straight ahead, went straight back to her office, placed the instant noodles steadily on the table, plopped down in her chair, and let out a long sigh.
He rubbed his temples. The morning's busyness and the midday's rush had left him feeling a little tired, but at the same time, a sense of peace welled up inside him.
Lifting the lid of the instant noodles, a rich and mellow aroma instantly filled every corner of the office.
Yu Huan used a fork to stir the contents of the bucket, then picked up a strand of noodles, brought it to her lips, blew on it gently, and eagerly put it into her mouth.
The familiar taste spread across his tongue, the hot, spicy sensation traveling down his throat to his stomach, making him squint his eyes in satisfaction.
The central air conditioning in the office was running continuously, making it quite warm. After a few bites of hot and spicy noodles, beads of sweat immediately appeared on my forehead.
However, the body, which had been feeling slightly heavy due to fatigue, seemed to have been injected with a stimulant by this hot energy, gradually relaxing from its tense state and regaining some vitality.
Yu Huan took off her coat and draped it over the back of the chair.
Then, while eating his noodles at a leisurely pace, he freed one hand, fumbled for the mouse, and gently moved it.
After waking up the computer from sleep mode, I began my afternoon work...
Inside the workspace, Wang Xianjiao sat at her workstation, her heart pounding with anxiety.
My right hand trembled slightly as I manipulated the mouse, my eyes fixed on the screen, watching the mouse pointer slowly move to the send button, my heart filled with hesitation.
Glancing at the time displayed in the lower right corner of the screen, it was already 12:59. She gritted her teeth, made up her mind, and finally chose to click the send button.
"Sister Ru, may I bother you for a moment?"
"I have an idea about the operation of SuSu Studio's official Weibo account. Brother Yu thought it was excellent and specifically asked me to send it to you."
After sending the message, Wang Xianjiao glanced at the text.
Fearing that Sister Ru might not remember "Brother Yu," she quickly typed out a line of text on the keyboard as a supplement.
"By the way, Brother Yu is the leader, his real name is Yu Huan. I had the pleasure of having dinner with you and Susu before."
After sending those two messages, Wang Xianjiao clenched her hands together, genuinely afraid that Sister Ru would reply with, "Who is Brother Yu?"
In that case, she'd still have to mingle among the saplings, which would be really awkward...
However, to Wang Xianjiao's surprise, Ru Jie replied less than half a minute after she sent the message.
"Oh? What's your idea, Jiaojiao? Tell me in detail."
Upon seeing this reply, Wang Xianjiao's eyes lit up instantly.
She quickly straightened her back, sat up straight, and her fingers flew across the keyboard: "Sister Ru, I wrote a document earlier, I'll send it to you now, please take a look."
Soon, Sister Ru's reply came again: 'Okay, working at a newspaper really makes you organized. Su Su is releasing a new album after the New Year, I'll give you three autographed copies then.'
Upon seeing this message, Wang Xianjiao was so excited she almost shouted out loud!
What excited her wasn't the three autographed albums, but that Sister Ru was so aware of her existence!
As Su Su's agent, Sister Ru is probably in at least a dozen official fan groups.
Among such a huge fan base, the fact that they remembered her, an ordinary little sapling, undoubtedly made her feel flattered and overwhelmed with an indescribable excitement.
However, after calming down and thinking about it carefully, Wang Xianjiao felt that something was amiss.
Even though she has always been very active in the group, she has never proactively revealed that she works at a newspaper...
That's not right...
Could it be that Brother Yu mentioned her at the dinner party back then?
That must be it!
