Chapter 173 The Attitude of Asking for Help?
Lin Wei, who had stayed up all night, barely slept.
His entire eye area had sunken in.
In the bedroom, her parents had just gone to sleep.
When the phone screen lit up, Lin Wei practically pounced on it and grabbed it.
Seeing those words Chen Yuan sent, she felt a sudden sense of relief.
What followed was a surge of pent-up resentment, a habitual desire for control, and a surge of anger that rushed straight to my head.
She dialed the number with trembling hands.
The moment the call connected, Lin Wei's mind was almost out of control.
"Chen Yuan! You bastard, you finally answered the phone! Are you determined to destroy me?!"
"No matter how bad my brother is, no matter how impulsive he is, he's still your brother-in-law! Now that you're famous and have someone supporting you, you don't even care about this little bit of affection anymore?"
"If he really gets a prison sentence, how are my parents supposed to live?! How am I supposed to live?!"
"Why didn't you think about Youyou before you did it? Is it something to be proud of that Youyou has an uncle who's been to prison? Can't you be a little less ruthless?!"
"Hey?! Say something! You dare to say something?! You know you've gone too far, don't you?! Let me tell you, it's not too late to apologize now. As long as you sign a letter of understanding, everything will be fine!"
"Hey! Hey!"
There was still no sound from the other end of the receiver.
Lin Wei took a look.
It turned out the call had been disconnected long ago.
Lin Wei froze on the spot.
What's wrong with her now?
wrong!
Unconvinced, Lin Wei dialed the number three times in a row, but no one answered each time!
She lost all her strength and collapsed onto the sofa.
She was filled with regret. Chen Yuan was no longer the same Chen Yuan. She couldn't let her emotions run wild.
If this continues, it will only block the last path!
Lin Wei could no longer hold back her tears. After a while, she wiped away her tears, took a deep breath, and her fingertips flew across the screen.
After carefully considering every word, deleting and revising it repeatedly, I finally pressed the send button.
[Chen Yuan, I was wrong. I'm sorry. I lost control of my emotions just now and said things without thinking. Please forgive me. I really know I was wrong. I shouldn't have used the past to hold you hostage.]
[My family was in the wrong regarding Haozi's matter. I promise to communicate properly from now on, without arguing or making a scene. Please give me a chance to discuss the letter of understanding, okay?]
On the other end of the phone.
Chen Yuan lay on a sofa on the top floor of the hotel.
He felt nothing when he saw the message from Lin Wei.
"Do you know you were wrong?"
"You know your brother is going to jail!"
Chen Yuan put his phone aside.
sleep!
Let's rest first!
He had just closed his eyes when his phone vibrated again.
Surprisingly, it wasn't Lin Wei who made the call, but Lao Li from the Culture and Tourism Bureau.
He answered the phone and then found a quiet place to sit down.
Li Ke's voice was tinged with laughter.
"Xiao Chen, how was your rest? Are you feeling any better?"
"I'm much better now, thank you for your concern."
"Of course we'll keep you in mind. After all, you're our star asset; how could we not care about you?"
"You're too kind."
After exchanging a few casual words, the two got down to business.
Li Ke said, "You handled the camp incident well yesterday. At least the online opinion about you is still quite positive. You didn't keep anything to yourself and even taught them the tricks of grilling meat and making barbecue sauce."
"The city leaders watched the video and thought it was great. Now many people online are asking for the recipe for that sauce, and many tourists are also asking if you can make a tutorial video."
"The bureau would also like you to record a short video teaching how to make this sauce. Uh... where are you now? Is this a convenient time for you?"
Chen Yuan dared not say no; this was a task assigned by his superiors!
"I'm currently recuperating at that five-star hotel near the camp. I think it shouldn't be a problem to ask them to borrow the kitchen."
Li Ke paused, then his tone became serious.
"That's good. I just need to confirm with you whether this recipe can really be released for public filming. After all, this is the sauce you made. If it involves core trade secrets... even though you're working for the government, your personal interests can't be compromised."
"Don't worry, it won't. Actually, the recipe for this sauce isn't anything special, and the ingredients are all very simple. Whether it tastes good or not depends on the skill of the cook and the control of the heat."
"That's great! Now we don't have any worries. We'll go for official recommendations later, and we'll provide all the traffic support. Maybe it'll even air on TV. You can rest assured."
Li Ke's voice clearly relaxed, and he continued to ask.
"Does the hotel have space? Is it convenient? If not, we can help coordinate."
"If you help me coordinate, I think it will definitely be much easier, and I also need a cameraman here."
"That's great, don't worry, I'll arrange for someone to take over right away."
hang up the phone.
Su Qingxue, leading two children who were already sweating profusely, walked up to Chen Yuan.
They were each holding a large cotton candy.
Su Qingxue asked, "What's wrong? I could hear you on the phone from far away, but you didn't dare come over. What's going on? You said you were going to rest, but it looks like you won't be able to rest for a long time."
Chen Yuan then told her what had just happened.
Upon hearing this, Su Qingxue nodded immediately, her joy evident in her expression.
"That's great. It's perfect that the hotel is handling things; I won't have to call and beg anyone. But senior brother, can you really just give out that prescription so easily?"
Chen Yuan said casually, "It's nothing. It's just rock sugar, a little bit of spices, soy sauce, apple puree and the like. Besides, I already taught the campers how to make it yesterday, so it won't make a difference."
"I didn't expect it to have official endorsement. If it could be broadcast on TV, Professor Chen and his wife would be so happy to see it, right?" Su Qingxue said with a smile.
Su Yuanrui and Chen Youyou, standing to the side, stared wide-eyed as they listened to the two of them talk.
They didn't understand anything else, but as soon as they heard that he might be on TV, the two little ones forgot about their cotton candy and kept chattering around Chen Yuan.
"Dad, you're amazing! My dad's going to be on TV!"
"Uncle, you're amazing!"
"Dad, I want to be on TV too!"
Chen Yuan reached out and pinched Youyou's fair and tender cheeks.
"it is good."
"If there's a chance, Dad will definitely take you on TV."
