Shen Ke looked at him in surprise, not expecting that he would come in person and be so efficient.
Tong Leyan glanced at her and said lightly: "Get in the car."
Although Shen Ke has never been fond of the Tong family's style, it has to be said that Tong Leyan was like a handful of carbon in the snow, saving her.
Rushing back to Beijing overnight, there was a blanket in the car. Tong Leyan moved to the passenger seat and gave her the entire back seat, saying, "If you feel sleepy, just take a nap."
Shen Ke was not sleepy at first, his mind was in a mess, always thinking about Xi Xiangdong's changes, but as the car drove, his eyelids slowly drooped.
When he woke up, he was already on the Beijing-Tianjin Expressway, with only a blanket and Tong Leyan's coat on him.
Shen Ke was a little embarrassed, so he sat up and returned the coat to him, rubbed his eyes and said, "How long will it take?"
Tong Leyan looked back at her, a faint stubble appearing on his chin: "It will be more than an hour later. Are you hungry? There is a high-speed station ahead."
Shen Ke shook her head. She had no appetite and was actually a little nauseous.
However, what makes Shen Ke happy and admires the most is that Tong Leyan can endure it until now without asking her what happened.
After the car entered the city, Shen Ke said again: "Send me to the house you prepared first. I don't want to see him for the time being."
That "him" naturally refers to Tong Jiansheng.
Afraid that Tong Leyan would fall out, she added: "I'm so sleepy that it would be more appropriate to take a nap, take a shower, clean up, and then go see him."
Tong Leyan didn't say much and directly instructed the driver to drive to his apartment.
A small two-bedroom apartment with fine decoration, hotel-style management and basic furniture.
Tong Leyan said: "No one has lived here yet, so there is a lack of daily necessities. You go take a shower first, and I will ask the driver to buy it."
She was already very satisfied with this condition.
There is a convenience supermarket downstairs where you can buy everything.
All she wants now is to take a bath, cover her head and have a good nap. She will think about the rest when she wakes up.
Tong Leyan seemed to have guessed what she was thinking. When she came out after taking a shower, toothbrushes, towels, cups and bowls were all on the table, and the refrigerator was filled with vegetables, fruits and frozen food.
He pointed to the instant porridge in the plastic bag and said, "It's been heated in the microwave. You can go to bed after eating. I'm leaving now. If you need anything, call me."
Shen Ke nodded, and when he saw his leaving figure, his throat suddenly moved, and his voice was already one step faster than his thoughts.
"Thank you...Second brother."
Tong Leyan's back seemed to pause for a moment, but without saying anything, he opened the door and left.

Shen Ke didn't expect that things would change after he fell asleep.
In the evening, she got up and had a bowl of noodles. She turned on the TV and saw that all major entertainment news channels were reporting that Xi Xiangdong, the president of Boxiao Entertainment, was involved in gangs and used movie box office to launder money for gang organizations.
She loosened her grip and the noodle bowl fell from her hand.
She called Tong Leyan.
Tong Leyan brought a stack of newspapers when he came over.
Shen Ke looked through them one by one and found that almost all of them were related to Xi Xiangdong.
Tong Leyan's eyes were profound and thought-provoking.
"Xi Xiangdong suffered a big fall this time. I guess he won't be able to turn around for a while."
Shen Ke still didn't believe it: "It's impossible for him...he won't do anything illegal..."
"If it's really clean, it won't be reported. How much do you know about the company? Do you really understand him?" Tong Leyan's tone was quite relaxed, "But fortunately you guys found out about this matter in time. It has nothing to do with you."
