The Weibo hot search was the assembly of the focuses of the different social circles in the society. It was updated every minute, 365 days a year. There were countless and all sorts of hashtags and keywords. Supposedly, as a professional assistant of a major director, there was no need for Mary to care about those hot searches that end up on the trending list by chance. Yet, this silly hot search regarding Shen Yu actually caused her fingers to tremble, resulting in her drawing a slanted brow. “I swear I’ll never fiddle with my phone again the next time I touch up my makeup.” Mary was grumbling, but her expression was serious. She did not choose to salvage her brow but instead, decided to click open the hot search immediately and send a message to the PR department in passing. When she just found out about her boss’s tracks last night, she racked her brain trying to figure out how to delete the clips from the main security cameras. She also checked who exactly brought her boss back last night and could finally relax after everything was sorted. Then, she discovered this third-rate appearing out of nowhere, trending as one of the hot searches on Weibo. Good Samaritan, what a coincidence. Mary bit her lower lips as she quickly browsed through all the popular posts. She found that the majority of the people were only hahaha-ing, a minority of them were trashing or praising Shen Yu’s appearance and acting. After making sure that there was almost nothing that could give her boss away, she finally relaxed. It seemed like she had overthought things and that side had nothing to do with this. Mary put down the eyebrow pencil which she had been clenching tightly in her hands and notified her colleagues from the PR department to hold their actions for now. Her other senses returned after the emergency state had passed. The beauty with curly hair looked at the term “middle-aged uncle” and laughed. She finally had the spare time to fix her delicate brows, picked up her iPad and went upstairs again to report on the situation. It was already past noon, Zhong Simo had already gotten out of the bed and tidied himself up. When Mary pushed open the door and went into the room, he was sitting beside a window with his back facing the door. He was wearing a bright coloured t-shirt, which was rarely seen on him, both his arms were straightened behind him to support his body which was slightly leaned back, basking in the sunlight. “Have you booked the plane tickets?” Zhong Simo stretched himself and turned to ask. The tips of his brows always lifted slightly when he smiled, his eyes narrowing into an eye smile. Accompanied by that good looking face, he was seemingly romantic and yet not greasy. “It’s done, it’s a direct flight to Beijing in two hours. If there are no other problems, we can set off now.” Mary ignored Zhong Simo’s good looks and answered calmly. In any case, no matter how good looking he was, there was no way he would become hers fundamentally given his sexual orientation. Who knew which family’s little boy would become his unfortunate target in the future.
“I have no problem with it, let’s tidy up and go.” Zhong Simo nodded his head but Mary had not finished what she wanted to say. “Just a moment, Boss. You asked me to check how you came back last night.” “You got it?” “Why don’t you have a look at Weibo’s hot search yourself?” Seeing that Mary was unwilling to continue the topic, Zhong Simo could only take out his phone and open his Weibo. He was usually not that concerned about the hot searches as they reflect the rules while he was someone who formulated rules. However, he was usually willing to cooperate with his assistant with her cliffhangers under normal circumstances. He was someone who knew how to be both easy-going and serious depending on the situation. The reason why Zhong Simo’s studio had such a cohesive team had a high correlation to its owner’s high EQ and charisma. Mary watched Zhong Simo as he swiped on his phone screen with his brows creased. He would pause every now and then, let out a light chuckle at the end, but never displayed a particular expression that she was expecting. “Contact the department and ask them to get that hot search off the trending list without any drama.” Zhong Simo ordered after he put down his phone a few minutes later. Mary waited for a few seconds and no other orders came. She hesitated, “What about after that? Do we not need to find out why this happened?” “It’s merely an accident.” Zhong Simo understood Mary’s intention. He crossed over the couch with his long legs and sat himself down. “Although Zhou Qianhe isn’t smart, she isn’t brainless either. Regardless of whether she’s trying to provoke me or use dirty tricks on me, all of those actions of hers were done privately. If she dares to do those things publicly and reveal our family scandals to the public, Chen Yi will be the first one that would not forgive her.” Zhong Simo was half leaning on the couch when he said those, his eyes were narrowed and overflowing with disdain. “As long as you are well aware of the situation.” It somehow made Mary let out a sigh of relief to hear Zhong Simo speaking about his conflicts with his father and stepmother. As long as he did not keep it to himself in his heart, she had never seen Zhong Simo being afraid of anyone before. She did not merely trust him blindly, it was trust that had built across the years she had witnessed him creating miracles. “If you say that it was an accident, you must remember something from what happened last night.” “Yeah, I do have a vague impression, it’s just that I didn’t know what his name was. He did not recognise me and my state did not allow me to freely ask him.” Zhong Simo squinted his eyes thoughtfully. As if extremely delighted, he patted on the phone lying next to him, “But now I know. Middle-aged uncle, ho.” Mary wasn’t sure why Boss would have any favourable impression on that particular term, so she could only continue to say what was on her mind, “If he really did send a drunk stranger back to the hotel in the middle of the night and heavy rain without any ulterior motives, Shen Yu sure is warm-hearted.” In other words, Mary did not find it believable. She had seen too many different types of celebrities in the entertainment circle, many of them would rush to cling to Zhong Simo’s influence and cause many unpleasant incidents. Over time, Mary would judge and examine others with caution every time she met someone.
