He Ying laughed, "Your romantic luck is really flourishing. Tell , how do you feel about soon living with three beautiful won?"
"No thoughts! Have you chatted with them?"
"Just casually chatted a bit." He Ying pondered, "Mainly about Huang Tianxuan. I feel like Dr. Huang could be a potential client of mine, but I didn’t expect that your supervisor and my supervisor actually know each other."
Li Peifeng recalled He Ying talking about her supervisor, the deputy dean of the School of Psychology, an elderly lady with a head full of silver hair—very kind, yet strict.
"It’s not surprising they know each other, since my supervisor cos from a family of academics."
"But I have so bad news for you. You might have to find a new partner tomorrow."
Li Peifeng was puzzled, "Why?"
He Ying kept her eyes on him and, seeing that he wasn’t disappointed, pouted slightly under her mask, "Because Sister Zheng agreed to let set up a ’Psychological Assistance Service Center’ in the community, and she even plans to help renovate that garage temporarily. She’ll also donate so of the old desks and chairs from their community. If all goes well, the ’True Feelings’ studio will be running tomorrow, serving most residents except those closely contacted with the virus."
"That’s great news!" Li Peifeng laughed, "But I’m curious, how did you convince her to support you so strongly?"
He Ying shrugged, then shook her white head, looking unexpectedly cute, and said innocently, "I don’t have that much influence. I had my supervisor contact the community leaders on behalf of the school. But it cos at a cost. From now on, I have to provide free psychological consultations for Taipingzhuang Community twice a year. Also, during this lockdown, the community leaders will invite the dia to cover the event."
"Got it!"
Li Peifeng could already imagine how the dia would report on it, with lines like:
"Heartwarming actions in the battle against the pandemic."
"Dispersing the pandemic’s ntal haze, Taipingzhuang Community ensures residents’ psychological health during the outbreak."
Maybe even Beijing Hua Shi’s public account and website would report it, with sothing like "In the face of a ruthless pandemic, kindness remains—Beijing Hua Shi’s psychologists in action."
A win-win. It’s a win-win. The school gains fa, the community gets credit, and the residents receive aid...
"This also seems like an opportunity."
Li Peifeng wiped the fog from his goggles and suggested, "Why not let your filming team co in as well? In the anti, you could shoot so videos, and then promote them. Maybe your video account could have a great start."
He Ying was stunned, her eyes sowhat bewildered, "Are you serious? Can we really do this? Wouldn’t it be problematic?"
Li Peifeng countered, "What’s the problem? You’re genuinely fighting the pandemic, genuinely volunteering, and will genuinely provide psychological support to the residents. They’re already going to promote you, so why not do so advertising yourself? Isn’t it worth spreading the word about good people doing good things?"
"That’s not the case."
He Ying’s eyes were puzzled, gradually clearing up, "Perhaps it’s about the original intention. If my intention to volunteer wasn’t right or it was purely for helping others, then... still no. This would be like exploiting others’ misery. I’ll just take so casual shots myself, no need for any promotion."
Li Peifeng spoke with a tone of relief, "Just as I expected, you’re still so kind and full of righteousness."
He Ying acknowledged, "But you’re surprisingly becoming more and more unscrupulous."
Li Peifeng waved his hand, "That was just a test for you. If you agreed to that, you’d surely breach contracts for greater benefits in the future. As actors beco bigger influencers, make more money, they beco dissatisfied with revenue-sharing clauses, poach teams with high salaries, burn bridges and go solo, end up in legal battles with their forr companies. This is common in the industry, but Wenyue and I certainly wouldn’t accept it."
He Ying was silent for a mont, her eyes playful.
[What if I poached you and we soared together? Would you accept that?]
Li Peifeng sensed what she was thinking, his eyes cautious, "I warn you, only I get to test you, you don’t get to test !"
Could he actually guess what I was thinking?
He Ying was slightly taken aback, a smile in her eyes, "Why’s that?"
Li Peifeng replied righteously, "Because I can’t stand the test!"
