1859: Getting Set Up

Getting Set Up

"Daddy—" Ding Yuejia came out dragging a pair of oversized slippers. Seeing Le Tian put Ding Junqi on the sofa, he hurriedly pattered over to the kitchen in his tiny feet and tiptoed to bring some water over for his father.0

"Mommy." Ding Yuejia held the cup with both hands and walked unsteadily.

Le Tian hurriedly took the cup and lowered her head to look at the man who was lying on the sofa, tugging at his tie. How was he supposed to attend a meeting looking like this?

"Mommy, is Daddy alright?" Ding Yuejia asked rather worriedly.

"It's nothing. He just drank too much," Le Tian reassured him as she placed the cup on the table. Then, she snapped a photo and sent it to Yu Dong.

Le Tian: [This is how he is. How is he supposed to attend the meeting?]

After Le Tian sent the message, Yu Dong called her immediately.

"What's going on?" Yu Dong asked anxiously. "He has a meeting with Mr. Gu tonight. Mr. Gu hates nothing more than getting canceled."

"There's nothing I can do since he's already drunk. Miss Lin in the opposite room was the one who sent him back," Le Tian said as she kicked Ding Junqi. He was still drunk and unconscious.

"Did you say Lin Xuan sent him back?" Yu Dong seemed to have caught onto something. "What did she say?"

What did she say?

Le Tian recalled what Lin Xuan said. "She said something along the lines of it's alright to send him over to my place. Why?"

After Le Tian said that, she heard Yu Dong cursed under his breath. Le Tian was puzzled.

"What's wrong?" Le Tian asked in confusion.

Yu Dong wanted to say something at first but decided against it after a while. "It's fine. Miss Le Tian, please take care of Junqi first. He's quite easy to handle when he's drunk."

Le Tian looked down at the man who only knew how to sleep when he was drunk. Guess that made him easy to handle, huh?

Yet, she could not understand why Yu Dong seemed to have more to say about this.

Just as Le Tian was about to end the call, Yu Dong halted her. "Miss Le Tian, may I ask if you two fought today? Junqi rarely gets drunk on set."

Uh—

Le Tian recalled the situation before Ding Junqi left and was at a loss for words.

Yu Dong already knew the answer without receiving one. It was exactly as he guessed. As a manager, these two would be the death of him.

Le Tian ended the call curiously. Meanwhile, Ding Yuejia already dragged the blanket over from the bed.

Le Tian hurriedly took over and covered Ding Junqi with the blanket.

Ding Yuejia was so tired by the effort that he was gasping for breath. His little hand caressed Ding Junqi's face. "Daddy is so naughty. He's drunk again."

When the clock struck eight, Gu Juexi's video conference began. Yu Dong was the one who attended the conference. Yu Dong apologized several times, saying that Ding Junqi was caught in a little incident—

However, before Yu Dong could finish apologizing, the news of Ding Junqi entering Le Tian's room drunk was exposed.

Yu Dong, "…"

Yu Dong could not lose his temper in front of Gu Juexi, but he had already locked onto his target internally. This person fully intended for Ding Junqi to meet his demise.

Ding Junqi violated two of Gu Juexi's taboos today.

"Mr. Gu, there was a celebratory feast for Junqi's new show, so— And that Miss Le Tian is—"

"There's no need to explain," Gu Juexi said in a low voice. He only let Nalan Chunbo start talking about the storyline.

Simultaneously, Ye Yuwei was on the phone outside the study.

"It's not a big deal. I'll talk to Gu Juexi. It's fine," Ye Yuwei said with a smile. Meanwhile, Ye Xicheng was calling after Ye Yuwei to tell his younger sister stories in his room.
