205: Back in Yanjing!

Upon arriving at the reserved private room, Chen Le saw the members of the Tian Tian Brothers and the Happy Camp family members like Teacher He.

It seemed today was a group dinner; since he had brought quite a few people, it was only natural that Director Zhao wasn't alone either.

After all, with so many people already present, a few more wouldn't hurt.

“Director Chen, you're here.” Seeing Chen Le and the others arrive, Teacher He immediately came forward with a smile to greet them.

“Yes.” Chen Le nodded slightly.

He then walked into the private room.

“Director Chen, come, sit here!” In the head seat of the private room sat a middle-aged man who smiled and waved at Chen Le upon seeing him.

He was Zhao De, the director of Mango TV Station.

Seeing him beckon, Chen Le walked over and sat down beside him.

Next to Zhao De sat the directors of Tian Tian Brothers and Happy Camp.

Naza sat next to Chen Le, followed by Shen Teng, Ma Li, and the others.

Shen Teng had long since noticed that the relationship between Naza and Chen Le seemed quite good; otherwise, he wouldn't have asked her to sit next to him.

As for exactly how good the relationship was, they didn't know, nor was it their place to pry.

Everyone tacitly avoided mentioning it. After all, it was the boss's private business, and there was no benefit for employees like them to meddle.

“Director Chen, meeting you in person, I can really feel how young you are. Truly young and promising!” Director Zhao couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Chen Le was about the same age as his own son, yet Chen Le was far more capable than his son.

Both were young men, yet the gap was so vast.

He had originally been fairly satisfied with his son, but now, compared to Chen Le, he immediately felt his son wasn't quite up to par.

Of course, he also knew that young men like Chen Le were extremely rare; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they were few and far between.

“Director Zhao is too kind,” Chen Le said with a smile.

“Haha, Director Chen, you are too modest,” Director Zhao quickly replied with a laugh.

Chen Le didn't have even a hint of the arrogance often found in youth; instead, he was very modest and low-key, which surprised him greatly.

“By the way, Director Chen, I've already had someone contact Manager Zhang from your company. I've seen the sample clips, and they look very good!” Director Zhao suddenly spoke up, bringing up the matter of the tv series living buddha ji gong.

“Haha, Director Zhao, since I dared to bring it out, I definitely won't let you down. If it were a poor tv series, I certainly wouldn't release it,” Chen Le said with a smile.

“Good, I hope our cooperation is a pleasant one.” Director Zhao picked up a bottle of red wine from the table, opened it, and poured a glass for himself and Chen Le.

Seeing this, Chen Le smiled and clinked glasses with him.

“Let's have a drink!” Director Zhao raised his glass with a smile.

“Alright, but I'll only have a little. I have to catch a flight tonight!” Chen Le continued.

They had booked flight tickets for that night to return to Yanjing.

So he couldn't drink too much now, otherwise it would be easy to mess things up.

Tomorrow was Monday, and Naza had to go back to attend classes.

“Fine.” Director Zhao nodded.

As the banquet began, it continued until past one o'clock, not ending until nearly two.

Returning to the hotel, Chen Le rubbed his temples.

Although he hadn't drunk much, it was impossible to have only one glass. Fortunately, he was only slightly tipsy now; after some sobering soup and a few hours of rest, he would be fine.

Naza came to his room holding a bowl of sobering soup.

“Brother Le, here.” Naza handed the soup to Chen Le.

She hadn't drunk any alcohol, mainly because she didn't like drinking much herself, so she had stuck to fruit juice.

“Naza, do you want to go out for a stroll together?” After finishing the sobering soup, Chen Le looked at Naza and asked.

Hearing Chen Le's words, Naza looked at him with great concern: “Brother Le, how about waiting until your head isn't dizzy before we go out?”

“It's fine. I only drank red wine and not that much. I can accompany you for a stroll. It's not easy to visit here once; we can't just not walk around a bit.” Chen Le waved his hand, indicating he was fine.

“Alright then.” Naza eventually nodded.

Afterward, they left the hotel.

In Star City, there was a very famous pedestrian street that tourists would always visit for a stroll.

Chen Le and Naza arrived there, and at a glance, it was packed with people.

Since it was the weekend, it wasn't just outside tourists; even the locals were out on their day off.

“There are so many people! Brother Le.” Naza wore a hat to block the intense afternoon sun.

It was afternoon, and even though the temperature was high, there were still many people out enjoying themselves.

“Yeah, after all, this is the most prosperous pedestrian street in Star City. It's normal for there to be many people,” Chen Le said with a smile.

By now, he had sobered up, and his head was no longer groggy.

The two of them wandered along the pedestrian street, buying many local specialties.

They wandered until around five o'clock before going to have dinner.

After dinner, they returned to the hotel.

At this time, Shen Teng and the others had also just returned to the hotel.

They had already gathered their luggage.

Chen Le and Naza brought their luggage and saw Shen Teng, who smiled and said, “Boss, it's time to go.”

“Yeah. Are you all heading back to Yanjing too?” Chen Le asked.

“Yes, we have other commercials and stuff to shoot later,” Shen Teng nodded.

Walking out of the hotel, there were cars arranged by the Tian Tian Brothers program team waiting outside to take them to the airport.

After all, the team had picked them up when they arrived, so they certainly had to see them off now that they were leaving.

At this time, the members of the Tian Tian Brothers had all come.

They escorted Chen Le and the others to the airport before heading back.

Arriving at the airport, Chen Le, Shen Teng, and the others found a place to rest while waiting to board.

The flight was at ten o'clock at night, so they weren't in a particular hurry.

Soon it was boarding time, and they boarded the plane.

By the time they returned to Yanjing, it was already the early hours of the morning.

Finding his car at the airport, Chen Le drove Shen Teng and Ma Li back to their residences first.

After all, in the middle of the night, if no one gave them a ride, they wouldn't be able to find a car at all.

Only then did he take Naza back to her apartment.

By this time, the sky was almost starting to brighten.

Exhausted, Chen Le lay down on Naza's bed and fell straight asleep.

When he woke up again, it was already one o'clock in the afternoon, and Naza was nowhere to be seen beside him.

Chen Le got up, and as soon as he opened the bedroom door, he smelled a fragrant aroma. Looking at the table in the living room, he saw a spread of delicious-looking food.

“Brother Le, you're awake!” Seeing Chen Le get up, a sweet smile appeared on Naza's face.

“Naza, what time did you get up? You've even finished making the food.” Chen Le was somewhat pleasantly surprised as he looked at Naza and spoke.

“I got up at twelve,” Naza replied.

“So early? Why didn't you sleep a bit longer?” As Chen Le spoke, he remembered something and tapped his head: “I almost forgot, you have classes today.”

“It's fine, Brother Le. I only have one class today, and it's at three-thirty in the afternoon. Let's eat first, and you can just drop me off after we finish eating,” Naza said, immediately waving her hand upon hearing Chen Le's words.
