Love Apartment Zhang Wei's powerful rebirth

"Really, Teacher Zeng? This colleague is quite something, isn't he?" Meijia came out of the room, sat on the sofa, and smiled meaningfully.

"Teacher Zeng, aren't you the director anymore? Logically speaking, you and Lisa are on the same level, so you shouldn't have to take orders from Lisa anymore, right?" Youyou asked, coming in from outside the door.

“Meijia, just say what you want to say, stop being sarcastic. She’s just an ordinary colleague. And Youyou, who told you that Lisa is my peer? She’s the deputy director now.”

"If it weren't for a bunch of old guys who haven't retired yet and there aren't any positions available, Lisa would already be the director," Zeng Xiaoxian said helplessly.

"Lisa is so amazing!" Youyou exclaimed in surprise.

“Definitely. Lisa has been Zeng Xiaoxian’s boss for so many years and has been able to rise steadily, which shows how capable she is. If it were someone else, haha, they would have been exiled to the Alashan Desert with Zeng Xiaoxian long ago,” Yifei mocked.

“After listening to Yifei’s analysis, Lisa is indeed quite capable.” Youyou nodded.

"You were the one who got exiled to Alashan. Am I that bad? I was admitted based on my own merits back then."

"If I hadn't been young and naive and offended Lisa back then, I would have been a director on a prime-time show long ago," Zeng Xiaoxian said indignantly.

"Teacher Zeng, what did you do back then? You offended Lisa," Youyou asked, puzzled.

"Well, let's not dwell on the past. Everything's better now. Not only has my salary increased, but I've also been promoted to director. I guess I'll be a deputy director soon, hahaha," Zeng Xiaoxian said happily.

“No wonder you’ve never been assertive in front of Lisa since I met you, always trying to please her. It turns out you have some kind of psychological trauma.” Youyou suddenly realized.

"Hey! Hey! Don't go off-topic! Teacher Zeng is giving you one more chance. Confess honestly."

"Who was that beautiful woman you had dinner with at the bar and restaurant yesterday? Don't try to deny it, I have photos and videos as proof." Meijia took out her phone.

Upon hearing this explosive news, Youyou became excited, snatched Meijia's phone, and started checking it. Yifei, standing silently beside Youyou, checked it together.

"Wow, it really is! What a beautiful girl, and her temperament is amazing!" Youyou exclaimed as she looked at the photos.

"Hmm!" Meijia gently nudged Youyou and pointed at Yifei.

Youyou instantly understood and quickly covered her mouth.

Yifei, who was standing to the side, was completely unaware that her attention was entirely focused on the photo of Zeng Xiaoxian and Nuolan. Seeing Zeng Xiaoxian and Nuolan chatting happily, Yifei's heart skipped a beat.

A flood of emotions overwhelmed Yifei – fear, sadness, and dread. She was overwhelmed with mixed feelings and felt somewhat helpless.

"Wow, not bad! Is this your new girlfriend? She's quite pretty. When are you going to introduce her to everyone?" Yifei forced a smile.

"Hey, hey, hey, please don't talk nonsense. Nuolan and I are just colleagues. Don't say anything, or it will damage her reputation if it gets out."

"Meijia! Who told you to take photos and videos of other people without permission? Don't you know it's illegal?!" Zeng Xiaoxian said angrily.

Zeng Xiaoxian's inner monologue: Meijia is such a troublemaker, always stirring up trouble. Luckily, Nuolan doesn't live here.

Otherwise, if this gets back to Nuolan, how will they get along and build rapport as work partners in the future?

If I can't build up goodwill, how can the plan proceed? If it can't proceed, won't I have to wait even longer?

"Teacher Zeng, why are you so agitated? We were just asking." Meijia smiled meaningfully.

"So this pretty girl's name is Ruolan." Youyou looked at the photo.

"Her name is Nuolan, not Ruolan," Zeng Xiaoxian said helplessly.

"Ruonan."

"Ruonan, ptooey, Nuolan."

"I don't care if you're Luo Lanruonan or Nuolanruolan, in Sichuan dialect we all pronounce them as Luo Lan." Youyou waved her hand dismissively.

“Youyou, you can’t read this clearly. No, Teacher Zeng, don’t try to change the subject. Explain carefully,” Meijia said earnestly.

"I request ten minutes for my open statement," Zeng Xiaoxian said, raising his right hand.

“Agreed! Don’t cause trouble, let him speak.” Yifei stared at Zeng Xiaoxian.

"Here's what happened: the day before yesterday, I suddenly received a notification from Lisa that a new colleague would be coming to co-host Your Moon, My Heart."

As you all know, I've hosted "Your Moon, My Heart" for so many years that it's become a part of me in a sense. Of course, I'm not happy about someone else suddenly joining me as a co-host.

So I expressed my strong opposition at the time, but Lisa said that it was useless to object, as the decision was made by the higher-ups and no one else could change it.

There was nothing I could do but try to find out the whole story from Lisa through various means. Later I learned that the decision was made by a girl named Nolan herself.

She requested to co-host a popular late-night show, because she was the station's star host, so the management agreed.

After reviewing the submissions, the leadership discovered that Fu He only had one program in mind: "Your Moon, My Heart." So, Nuolan was assigned to the role.

I wanted to ask Lisa for more information, but she said she didn't know the details and told me to ask her myself and not to bother her.

As you all know, I've always been very proactive. Without hesitation, I took on the task of receiving guests, gathering information, treating them to meals, and helping them with their luggage.

In the end, it was all for nothing. She stubbornly refused to say anything, and I wasted my time. That's pretty much how it happened." Zeng Xiaoxian said, quickly taking a sip of water.

Zeng Xiaoxian's inner monologue: I can't take it anymore, my brain cells are about to be exhausted, Zhang Wei! Help!

"Teacher Zeng, your storytelling ability is on par with Ziqiao's. You even made up this kind of story to cover it up." Meijia said with a face full of suspicion.

"Teacher Zeng, the logic in your story is terrible, far worse than our script editors." Youyou said, fiddling with a doll.

"Can't you guys use your brains and think about this properly? Why would I need to lie? Besides, Nuolan and I will be broadcasting together in a few days."

"You'll know whether it's true or not as soon as you hear it. If you really don't believe me, go ask Zhang Wei!" Zeng Xiaoxian said speechlessly.

"Alright, stop teasing him. You know his personality. If he were to date this Nuolan, he would definitely want to show off to the whole world, and his mouth would be drooping to the sky."

"He would be here quietly, offering all sorts of rebuttals, and with his brain capacity, he couldn't possibly come up with such a complicated story." Yifei, who had been silent just moments before, suddenly spoke up.

"Even though you're trying to explain, why does it still make me feel so uncomfortable?" Zeng Xiaoxian said speechlessly.

"That's true, Yifei is right. So why did Nuolan suddenly decide to do a late-night show, and with a partner?"

Yifei's P.S.: Phew! Why did my heart beat a beat slower just now?
