My System Forces Me to Live off Women

Chapter 591: Chapter 363: Trailer Release

"You should have said we’re attending the dinner, too!"

"Yeah, when he disagreed, you should have told him we’re participating in this team-building event."

In the office of the Trinity Studio’s boss, after Tang Yan hung up the phone, he faced the slightly reproachful questioning of the two bosses.

"I wanted to say that."

Tang Yan replied with difficulty, "But earlier, you both told me not to make it seem like it was your idea, and not to emphasize your involvement... Besides, Brother Feng hung up right after he finished speaking. Should I call him back?"

Xu Manning hesitated, "Forget it."

"Then..."

Wu Wenyue frowned and waved her hand, "Go back to work. If Li Peifeng has no problem with it, you can release the trailer at noon. If they want us to add some money, just add it. It’s really effective."

"Alright."

Tang Yan heaved a sigh of relief and turned to leave the room.

Less than an hour into the workday, Wu Wenyue suddenly called him in, asking him to notify Li Peifeng about the completion of the trailer.

Tang Yan found it quite strange. Logically, he shouldn’t have been the one to inform them; given Li Peifeng and Wu Wenyue’s relationship, a call from the latter would suffice. Why did he have to notify them? And it’s rare for one of the bosses, Xu Manning, to come to the studio.

Then Wu Wenyue mentioned wanting to organize a team-building event for Valentine’s Day and also asked him to notify Li Peifeng, especially emphasizing not to tell him it was her idea. At that point, Tang Yan vaguely understood.

It seems like the two lady bosses were having a fight with the boss. Wu Wenyue and Xu Manning didn’t want to contact Li Peifeng directly because it would signify backing down, so they had him serve as a messenger, using the company team-building as an excuse to see each other...

Wow, causing drama on Valentine’s Day, how dramatic is that?

After leaving the room, Tang Yan resisted the urge to gossip and settled into work mode at his desk, while Wu Wenyue and Xu Manning continued discussing in the office.

"But never mind, this foreign holiday isn’t worth celebrating anyway. Let’s not bother with Li Peifeng. If you want to go out, I’ll take you shopping."

Xu Manning immediately shook her head, "No, shopping is boring."

Wu Wenyue sighed, "Do you just want to find him?"

Xu Manning frowned and thought for a moment, before holding her head and sighing, "My useless brain, what’s the point of having it if it only thinks about my husband..."

Wu Wenyue playfully tapped her on the head, "What’s the point of being cute with me? Didn’t we agree to wait for him to come to us? It’s only been two days, and you can’t stand it already?"

Xu Manning rolled her eyes, "I didn’t bring it up first, you said we should use the team-building as an excuse to find him!"

"Yes, but he didn’t agree. He obviously doesn’t want to see us."

"Since we gave him a way out and he still doesn’t appreciate it, you want to go see him? Go ahead, I’m not going."

"I’m not going to find him... It’s my house; can’t I go collect rent?"

"If you can fool yourself with that excuse, go ahead." Wu Wenyue sneered.

Xu Manning became annoyed, "The key point is today is Valentine’s Day! I suspect he’s doing it on purpose... He’s definitely thinking of avoiding giving gifts by not seeing us. That dog’s absolute thinking that way!"

Wu Wenyue was well aware, given Li Peifeng’s intelligence, he couldn’t have missed the implication of Tang Yan’s call—it was the opportunity offered by her and Manning. Moreover, he possesses a unique ability to understand their thoughts, so if Li Peifeng doesn’t want to join the team-building, it means he doesn’t want to see them.

Why doesn’t he want to see them? On one hand, he might be upset. After all, they had agreed to live together, only to end up in a cold war; it wouldn’t be surprising for Li Peifeng to hold a grudge. On the other hand, it might be exactly what Xu Manning mentioned...

"Do you think they’ll secretly go find Li Peifeng today?"

"Huang Tianxuan might, but Old Zhao probably won’t."

Xu Manning agreed, "Tianxuan definitely can’t resist,"

Wu Wenyue thought it over again, feeling a bit unsure and worried but decided to suppress it: "Forget him, anyway, he can’t escape receiving a Valentine’s gift. If you really want to see him, we can just go find him this afternoon."

After saying this, Wu Wenyue took out a beautifully covered, high-quality photo album from the drawer, handed it to Xu Manning, and smiled, "Here, this is the gift I prepared for you."

"What’s this?"

With eyes full of anticipation, Xu Manning quickly flipped through the album and discovered it contained past photos of the two of them. There were recent photos taken after confirming the relationship with Li Peifeng, as well as intimate photos from two or three years ago when they hadn’t broken up yet.

"Ah, the time at Tian’an Gate... you still have it? I lost all my photos."

Xu Manning lovingly browsed through the album, her delight undisguised. After seeing a few photos, she couldn’t hold back her emotions and hugged Wu Wenyue tightly, deeply moved, "Yueyue, you’re so thoughtful."

Wu Wenyue felt a brief sense of satisfaction and then raised an eyebrow playfully, "Did you prepare my gift?"

There was a "no gift, you’re in trouble" air to it, and Xu Manning felt a little flustered. Her eyes darted around and she glanced back at the album again, "Aren’t there any photos of Peifeng in here?"

"No... don’t change the subject, I’m asking about my gift?"

Xu Manning frowned, displeased, "Are we still preparing a gift for him?"

Wu Wenyue squinted, "I’m asking about my gift! You didn’t prepare one, did you?"

Xu Manning gritted her teeth, "I bet he didn’t prepare anything for us, absolutely not!"

"I meant you!"

"Me? I don’t want to prepare a gift for him... but if you’re saying we go find him this afternoon, give him a gift, and then see him unprepared, wouldn’t that be funny?"
