The question to the star

Liang Weining rose to become a 'favorite' of Mr. Chen, the capital magnate of the Hong Kong Region, in just six months. The outside world said she climbed up by her beauty. No matter how good a vase might look, it can't escape being discarded once the owner grows tired of it. As such, everyone watched and waited. After three long years, they finally received news of Liang Weining's dismissal.
While the entire upper circle thought Liang Weining had become history, nobody knew that on the eve of New Year's Eve, an entertainment reporter captured a romantic moment. In a black business car parked underneath the Zhonggang headquarters building, the backseat window was half-lowered, and Mr. Chen, who was always dignified and composed, unexpectedly lost control. In the mottled shadows, he grabbed the chin of a young girl and kissed her fiercely.
The photos were exposed that same night, and a heavy snow fell over the Eastern Suburbs of Beijing.
Inside the Mid-hill Villa, the fireplace blazed warmly. The man took the girl's soft, boneless hand from behind and guided her to write on the Xuan paper: Chen Jingyuan.
"When will we go public?" he asked in a low voice.
As soon as he'd finished speaking, the mobile phone screen lit up. The exclusive breaking news headline from the Hong Kong media flashed before their eyes again, and Liang Weining fretted over the news title, "Let's wait a bit longer."
Chen Jingyuan's voice was slightly deep, "What are you worried about?"
"My dad's blood pressure has been unstable lately."
Years later, Mr. Chen gave an interview to the media, addressing personal issues.
Reporter: "For you, what was the biggest obstacle in pursuing Mrs. Chen back then?"
Mr. Chen paused for a few seconds, then smiled lightly, "My father-in-law's blood pressure."

Beijing-Hong Kong Memories

When the moment came, Liang Weining could only endure the pain and make a sacrifice, "If there's a next time, you can consider deducting my bonus as a warning to others."


She used 'as a warning to others' instead of 'to serve as punishment'.


Chen Jingyuan was too busy to quibble over words with her. He closed the planning proposal, relaxed his body slowly leaning back against the chair, and looked up at her, "Am I to understand that Secretary Liang is resolute and willing to take on any consequences caused by mistakes made by the secretarial team members?"


Having responsibility did not mean that she should take the blame for everything.


Liang Weining understood that the boss was cautioning her not to blindly play the 'good person'.


Chen Jingyuan hadn't taken the earlier incident to heart.


But upon seeing the girl enter the room as if facing a great enemy, he suddenly changed his mind and wanted to deliberately pursue the matter further.
