Here is the English translation of the provided text:
In early November, Lan Hui summoned the top leadership of the provincial TV station for a meeting.
"The purpose of today’s meeting is just one thing—to organize the Small New Year’s Spring Festival Gala."
As soon as she finished speaking, the room erupted in shock.
This was because Yanxi TV Station had never hosted a Spring Festival Gala since its founding, and none of those present had any experience with it.
But Lan Hui ignored the reactions and continued speaking without hesitation.
"I know everyone is surprised, but I still think our station should host a Spring Festival Gala with Yanxi’s unique characteristics for the public. Besides, I’ve already reported this to the higher-ups, so all of you need to put in your best effort."
Seeing no one dare to oppose her, Lan Hui was clearly pleased.
She then swept her sharp gaze over everyone in the room.
"Such an important affair must be handled by someone capable. Therefore, I’ve decided to assign Chen Tai to take charge."
The already stunned crowd became even more astonished upon hearing this.
All heads turned toward Chen Bin in quick succession.
Especially Shen Xue, whose delicate face was filled with undisguised worry.
Chen Bin, who had always been uninterested in the TV station’s work, usually appeared absent-minded during meetings.
Just as he was thinking about what time he should head home to visit his godmother and daughter, he thought he heard someone calling his name.
He instinctively asked, "Lan Tai, what did you just say?"
Lan Hui arched a sly smile at the corners of her mouth, her face full of mockery.
"I said you’re the one responsible for the Small New Year’s Spring Festival Gala."
Chen Bin’s eyes widened in sheer astonishment.
He didn’t know the first thing about hosting a Spring Festival Gala—how was he supposed to take charge of it?
But having weathered many storms, the panic on his face quickly disappeared, replaced by the slow emergence of a name in his mind: Feng Huzhou!
It had to be him causing trouble behind the scenes.
Lan Hui noticed Chen Bin frozen in shock, so she got up and said directly, "Chen Tai, I hope you’ll provide me with a plan as soon as possible. Meeting adjourned!"
As the attendees stood up to leave, their gazes toward Chen Bin were filled with worry and confusion.
In their view, Chen Bin was always kind and never threw his weight around.
Besides, he hadn’t been at the station for long; how could he have possibly offended Lan Hui?
Once Chen Bin returned to his office, Fan Sheng followed him inside.
"Chen Tai, did you offend that hen? She’s obviously targeting you this time."
Chen Bin shook his head, looking a bit exasperated.
"I don’t know. I haven’t provoked her much since I started working at the station."
Fan Sheng frowned deeply, clearly worried.
"This is the first Small New Year’s Spring Festival Gala in the history of our station, and if there’s even the slightest mistake, it’ll be a disaster. Do you think you can pull this off?"
"Well, there’s no choice. I’ll have to make it work."
In Chen Bin’s eyes, Lan Hui was deliberately making things difficult for him.
But his ultimate goal was to replace her, so no matter what, he had to organize an impressive gala to shock everyone.
Fan Sheng didn’t know what else to say and could only pat Chen Bin on the shoulder.
"If there’s anything you need help with during the gala preparation, just let me know and don’t hesitate to reach out."
"Alright, I’ll thank you in advance for that."
After Fan Sheng left the office, Shen Xue called again, insisting that she meet Chen Bin tonight no matter what.
Thinking he might need her help for something, Chen Bin agreed.
That night, in a high-end hotel room, the two entered one after another.
This was the first time Chen Bin had a private meeting with Shen Xue since starting work at the provincial TV station.
Sitting in Chen Bin’s lap, Shen Xue asked earnestly, "Did you offend Lan Hui?"
Chen Bin hugged her slender waist, his large hands slowly moving over it.
"No, she must be acting under someone’s instruction."
"How... how do you know who my husband is?"
Seeing Shen Xue’s surprised expression, Chen Bin casually made up an explanation.
"Because every time Feng Huzhou targets me, you always manage to tip me off in time, so I started suspecting you two were married."
Although the reasoning sounded a bit far-fetched, Shen Xue chose to believe it.
After all, her relationship with Chen Bin was at most an affair; there was no need to overly probe every detail.
While running her long, red-polished nails across Chen Bin’s face, Shen Xue said.
"I don’t know much about organizing galas either, but I’ll remind you to be cautious and sort out the issues of authority and funding with Lan Hui. Otherwise, if she sabotages halfway through, all your efforts will be wasted."
"Alright, I’ll go find her tomorrow then."
Shen Xue planted a firm kiss on Chen Bin’s handsome cheek, leaving behind a bright lipstick mark as she said softly.
"Lan Hui is a complicated woman. You should be careful and avoid falling into the traps she sets for you."
"I know. By the way, how much do you know about her?"
"I haven’t had much interaction with her, but one thing’s certain—she has a poor reputation at the station, and complaints about her are never-ending."
"Haven’t the higher-ups investigated her?"
"They have, but she always comes out unscathed, which shows her backing is formidable."
Nodding, Chen Bin reached out to forcefully knead Shen Xue’s White Jade Peak through her clothes.
"If you don’t go home tonight, will Feng Huzhou get suspicious?"
"Don’t worry about that. If I dared to meet you, it means I’ve already made all the necessary preparations."
Hearing this, Chen Bin’s movements became noticeably more daring.
With the scent of mature masculinity filling her senses, Shen Xue’s delicate body began trembling subtly in excitement.
"Chen Bin, if I had married you back then, would you have wanted me?"
Looking at Shen Xue’s slightly bashful expression, Chen Bin nodded sincerely.
"Yes, I liked you since we were desk mates back then, but I just didn’t dare to say it."
For Chen Bin, it was all part of the game, so lying came effortlessly.
However, Shen Xue believed him.
She hugged Chen Bin’s neck tightly, and the two embraced like lovers reunited after a long separation, burning with passion.
As the atmosphere became increasingly heated, Chen Bin slowly lowered his head and took Shen Xue’s delicate red lips into his own.
Feeling Chen Bin’s tender actions, Shen Xue’s breathing became more rapid.
Even her soft murmurs began to escape her nose.
Back when Shen Xue graduated high school, her parents were involved in a car accident.
As they lay on the brink of death, the driver who caused the collision chose to flee.
She only learned of it when notified by the police and rushed to the hospital.
Facing her critically injured parents on the operating table, Shen Xue, only eighteen at the time, fell into utter despair.
She simply didn’t have the money to pay for the surgeries.
Then Feng Huzhou appeared.
After negotiations, the two reached an agreement.
Shen Xue would marry Feng Huzhou, and he would cover all the surgical expenses.
Years passed, yet Shen Xue had never felt love for Feng Huzhou.
To her, he was just an opportunistic old man who exploited her misfortune.
Even having a child using Chen Bin’s seed was merely a ploy to claim the Feng family’s wealth in the future.
The reason she chose Chen Bin was precisely because Feng Huzhou despised him.
Letting someone Feng Huzhou hated give him a cuckold was, to Shen Xue, the most powerful form of revenge.
Thinking of this, waves of pleasure began spreading throughout her body...
