472: No one expected it to end early

It wasn't that no one felt this injustice, but in the workplace, emotions could only be hidden, and work processes continued.

For the next few questions, Xu Lian practically blurted out the answers, so quickly that Nana found it incredible!

Was this really his first time participating in an interview?

He was completely calm and natural, as if he were chatting casually at home, without the slightest hint of awkwardness.

The two of them didn't seem to be doing a show; it was more like a relaxed conversation between friends.

This program recording allowed Nana to experience an unprecedentedly relaxed atmosphere for the first time.

The one truly dominating the rhythm of the entire show wasn't her, the host, but Xu Lian's emotional drive.

This interview style was surprisingly comfortable!

For Nana, this experience was a learning journey!

Through interacting with Xu Lian, she became more confident about her future, no longer complacent about her current small achievements.

The interview finished, in one take!

Speaking of Xu Lian's performance during the recording, it was simply textbook-level!

Originally, the program was planned to be at least an hour long, but it was completed within forty minutes!

No retakes were needed, and the entire process was uninterrupted and smooth.

All of this was thanks to Xu Lian's exceptional ability to summarize and express.

He could always convey his meaning clearly in the shortest time with the most concise words, which others understood immediately and still left them wanting more.

Clap, clap, clap, clap!

The deputy station director was the first to applaud, announcing the successful completion of the recording.

The subsequent staff didn't join in the celebration; they rushed the newly recorded material to the editing suite.

Xu Lian didn't linger either; after exchanging a few pleasantries with Qin Feixu, he left Xinhua TV.

Looking at his retreating figure, Nana opened her mouth but ultimately couldn't bring herself to ask.

She was actually curious how he managed to remain so calm and composed in front of the camera.

But in the end, she was too embarrassed to speak.

"What are you thinking about? It's getting late, let's get ready to go home."

The deputy station director said, glancing at his watch.

Although the recording was successfully completed, it was already past 6:30 PM.

They still had to clear the set and arrange tasks for the next day, so it would probably be past 7:00 PM before they could completely finish.

If it hadn't been for the sudden notice that President Xu was coming for an interview, everyone would have left at 6:00 PM sharp.

From the day the invitation was received, everyone stopped what they were doing and fully prepared for this live broadcast.

No one expected it to end early!

Everyone was mentally prepared to work overtime until 9:00 PM.

But now it was done before 7:00 PM, and even with a bit more time to handle miscellaneous tasks, their hearts were full of joy.

"President Xu is truly amazing; he didn't know those questions beforehand!"

"That's right, when I first heard the first question, I was nervous for him for a while."

"We all know the interview questions from Xinhua News Agency; they look common, but they really test one's on-the-spot reaction. Many guests, even if they've read the script and practiced beforehand, will stammer and speak unclearly."

"I've been working at the station for over half a year and have never seen anyone who didn't need retakes. Xu Lian is the first!"

"Let alone retakes, no one can even compare to his work efficiency!"

"No wonder 'Ouyou' has grown to such a scale today."

After Xu Lian had completely left, everyone began to discuss in hushed voices.

His composure in front of the camera was truly impressive!

It was precisely because of this that everyone truly understood what true strength was.

Capable men don't rely on the occasion to make an impression; they inherently radiate brilliance.

Not all success requires external packaging; some people are born to shine!

As gentle and refined as this person, only Wen Ruyan deserves this description!

If it were in ancient times, Xu Lian would definitely be that kind of brilliant scholar, revered by all!

Meanwhile, after leaving Xinhua TV, Xu Lian and Qin Feixu headed to the restaurant they had booked earlier.

No matter how busy one is, one must eat; going hungry is not an option.

Tonight's restaurant was personally chosen by Xu Lian.

All along the way, Qin Feixu's heart felt as sweet as blooming flowers at the thought of having dinner with Xu Lian!

Recently, she had always been the one to initiate invitations, and although Xu Lian always accepted, after a certain number of times, she inevitably worried: Am I bothering him?

If Xu Lian didn't wish for it, she would be willing to change, even if it meant letting go painfully!

But tonight, Xu Lian responded to her unease with his actions—

This was something he genuinely wanted to do!

Even if she didn't actively invite him, he would find an opportunity to ask her out!

This mutual sweetness made Qin Feixu feel like she was flying, completely floating.

Screech!

The car stopped, and the driver glanced at the navigation, applying the brakes with a strange expression.

"Huh? Why did we stop?"

Qin Feixu glanced outside and asked casually.

"We've arrived."

Hearing this, Qin Feixu lowered the window a little, sticking her head out to look around.

There was no sign of any high-end restaurants nearby.

They seemed to be standing on an ordinary street, or rather, under a street archway.

Looking through the archway, the entire street was brightly lit, bustling with people, and opening the window allowed them to hear the continuous shouts of hawkers, mixed with enticing aromas.

After looking around, she pulled back inside, her gaze involuntarily turning to Xu Lian beside her.

Just one look at him, and she immediately understood.

That's right, he was going to eat on this unassuming little street tonight!

Qin Feixu was slightly surprised but was the first to open her car door, then helped him open the door on his side.

After they both got out, the driver drove off to find a parking spot.

She stood on the slightly old street, with Xu Lian, impeccably dressed in a suit, beside her, momentarily unsure what to say.

She had never imagined her first time in such a place would be so novel, and she didn't feel any disdain, only that everything before her was fresh and interesting.

Usually, they dined at high-end hotel restaurants, but tonight, being suddenly brought to a 'night market street' by Xu Lian, she was filled with joyful excitement.

"Let's go quickly!"

She said impatiently.

Xu Lian smiled helplessly, took her hand, and walked forward.

This snack street was not wide to begin with, and it was the peak time where dinner and late-night snacks converged. Plus, it was a weekend, so there were many more people than usual.

The crowd was dense, with people everywhere.

If Qin Feixu accidentally fell a few steps behind, she might not even find Xu Lian when she turned around.

Qin Feixu, dressed in a neat suit, and the tall Xu Lian, as soon as they stepped onto the street, became the focal point of everyone's attention.

Except for the hawkers busy with their heads down, almost everyone was watching the two of them.

Even though Xu Lian was wearing casual clothes today and his hair was a bit casually disheveled, the aura he exuded still couldn't hide his outstanding temperament!

What's more, he was holding hands with a stunning beauty like Qin Feixu, with her delicate features and curvaceous figure.
