Chapter 193: How Embarra.s.sing! I Want Qiao Lian to Interview Me! (3)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
At the news agency, in the office of the managing editor.
Standing in front of the office table, Qiao Lian looked at Liu Zhixing, who was sitting there and slamming the table.
BAM BAM!
“How dare you!? The interview was at 10 a.m., yet you only arrived at 11 a.m. Do you not want this job anymore? Then just leave now!”
As he spoke, the mole on his chin quaked amusingly along with him.
Qiao Lian knew that nothing she said would help, but she still said, “Su Meimei told me it was at 11 a.m.”
“Do you have any proof?”
Qiao Lian took out her phone and opened the recording application.
She had expected Su Meimei to set her up, so she had already prepared.
However, she did not expect the managing editor to rebut it, “I don’t want to know about the process. I just know that you were in charge of Mo Ru’s interview and you messed it up!”
Liu Zhixing stood up all of a sudden. Leaning forward, he a.s.sumed an oppressive posture and slightly narrowed his eyes. “Qiao Lian, the mistake you made this time is way too serious. If the news agency doesn’t punish you, no one will be satisfied!”
As Qiao Lian stood there silently, she felt more furious than ever.
She had never expected that the managing editor would say such shameless words, even with proof.
However, after a second, Liu Zhixing was unexpectedly smiling again. “Of course, you must know that right now only I can help you settle this matter in the entire news agency.”
He approached Qiao Lian from behind the table. With a lecherous look in his eyes, he reached out to grab Qiao Lian’s hand. “After all, you have done a lot for the news agency by digging out so many incredible news items. The news agency can’t bear to let you go either…”
Just when he reached out his hands, Qiao Lian retreated two steps in disgust to keep a distance from him.
Qiao Lian’s behavior caused the managing editor’s expression to darken again. “Qiao Lian, you should be grateful when I try to be nice to you!”
Qiao Lian was so furious that she was speechless.
The managing editor scoffed, “Sure, since you are so upright, go home now and wait for the announcement! After the news agency has agreed on your punishment, you can scram. Let me warn you, I won’t let you leave just like that. The news agency will surely ask you to compensate for the loss of Mo Ru’s interview.”
Was he threatening her again?
Sneering, Qiao Lian turned around and left.
However, little did she expect to see Su Meimei standing by the door just as she walked out of the office. She glared at her with a gloomy look on her face and said, “Qiao Lian, I told you a long time ago that I would make you leave the news agency with your tail in between your legs!”
Looking at Su Meimei, Qiao Lian’s lips curled up suddenly. “Su Meimei, isn’t the only reason you are trying so hard to bring me down that I overshadow you so much that you don’t have any chances to s.h.i.+ne? I’m telling you, even if I leave, I will continue outs.h.i.+ning you to the point that you won’t ever succeed!”
As soon as the words got out of her mouth, Su Meimei’s face changed drastically. “Don’t spew nonsense here!”
“We’ll see if it’s really just nonsense!”
She immediately walked towards the entrance of the news agency.
A news agency like this was not worth staying at.
Actually, she already knew that the managing editor and Su Meimei had a scandalous relations.h.i.+p. Even if she had shown the proof, the managing editor would have not spared her.
However, when she truly experienced injustice, not only did she still feel enraged, but she also felt even more helpless and hopeless.
She had tolerated Su Meimei for so long. In the end, had she still not been able to stay for a year and attain the reporter’s certificate?
As she was walking through the entrance of the news agency, she b.u.mped into someone!
When she lifted her head, she saw Fan Jie’s dazzling small face looking at her in excitement. He exclaimed, “Sister-in-law!”
