Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
On the next day, Mu Chenyan reported to the news office legal control channel early in the morning. Since Wu Ze had informed the chief editor beforehand, he was very polite to Mu Chenyan.
“Little Mu? You can go to the human resources department and logistics to collect the things that you need for your work. Then, you can officially start your duty in the afternoon.”
Chief Editor Liu looked at Mu Chenyan’s low-profile outfit and a light smile appeared in his eyes. She was as calm as the sea and she had an outstanding temperament. Thus, he was a little puzzled in his heart. What was the relations.h.i.+p between this young girl and Young Master Wu?
She was a very attractive beauty. Could she be Young Master Wu’s secret mistress?
The outsiders had always been very interested in talking about the two successors of the Wu Family from Luo Hai, especially Wu Ze. He was known as a talented lawyer in the legal industry and also a genial person. Throughout all these years, he never had any scandals and no one had seen him with any women other than his secretary.
The woman in front of him now was worthy enough for Young Master Wu to go to the city personally and settled the dispute for her in the police station. Then, he made arrangements for her to work here. She must have a complex relations.h.i.+p with Young Master Wu.
However, Chief Editor Liu felt that something was wrong when he thought about it. If Mu Chenyan was really Young Master Wu’s secret mistress, why would she work as a reporter? Why would she do such a tough job with her status and social standing?
Mu Chenyan did not know that the chief editor’s brain was filled with all these gossip questions, all she did was to stay humble and respectful. Then, she went to the logistics department and collected her employee ident.i.ty card, related doc.u.ments, as well as daily necessities.
There was another young man who was a.s.signed to work together with her in the major crimes department. The moment she entered the office, the young man went to her enthusiastically and introduced himself.
“Hi, I’m Zhang Xin, welcome! We will be working together at the major crimes department.”
This young man seemed extraordinarily excited. When he was introducing himself, he was smiling non-stop and Mu Chenyan was momentarily stunned.
“Hi, I’m Mu Chenyan. I’ll be in your care from now on, senior!” This was indeed the first time Mu Chenyan worked ever since she graduated. She was the latest recruit in the news industry!
Zhang Xin saw how Mu Chenyan was not only pretty, her voice was very pleasant to the ears too. Moreover, she spoke in a humble manner and there was a hint of coldness in her eyes. Therefore, his heart could not help but pounded slightly.
Early that morning, Sister Fang from the human resources department told Zhang Xin that he had gotten a good job and he might be lucky romantically.
When he got to the office, he heard his colleagues talking about how the newcomer was a remarkable beauty.
Zhang Xin just turned 26 this year and just broke up with his girlfriend. Once his colleagues saw him, they joked, “Zhang Xin, you’re having luck in love! Liu Yan broke up with you and G.o.d gave you a fairy from heaven!”
Zhang Xin had doubts and a.s.sumed that they were only speaking modestly. Previously, everyone made excuses and did not want to go to the major crimes department to work with an outsider. After all, the major crimes department was not the place that they were familiar with. Moreover, they heard that Captain Wu of the major crimes department had a very bad temper. Thus, how could it compare to the comfort of their own department?
Zhang Xin was young and inexperienced. Since his seniors were not willing to transfer over, he was forced to take the job.
Initially, he was complaining a little in his heart. However, when he saw Mu Chenyan, all the complaints turned into gratefulness to the heavens…
In the afternoon, Mu Chenyan reported at the major crimes department along with Zhang Xin.
Before they left, the other colleagues did not forget to tease Zhang Xin, “You little boy, you got a blessing out of a misfortune! If we would’ve known earlier, we would apply for this job too!”
There were more men than women in the legal control channel. Every time a woman from the collaborating unit visited, their eyes would s.h.i.+ne brightly. Besides, their new colleague was an outstanding beauty this time. Everyone was burning with jealousy when they saw the smug look on Zhang Xin’s face.
Nevertheless, it was indeed rare for a woman like Mu Chenyan to join this industry. Even if they were to work in the news industry, most women would avoid being a reporter.
Zhang Xin thought in his heart that G.o.d must have pitied him to send him a River Snail Maiden [TN: This is an old fairy tale in China about a story of a kind-hearted and hardworking who found and brought home a snail one day and took care of it. To repay its grat.i.tude, the snail secretly turned into a beautiful lady and made dinner for the fisherman every day. He eventually found out and both of them got married.]
