Now that Mo Xichen had caught everyone’s attention, any piece of news about him would make the headlines.
However…
Su Meimei sneered, “Don’t speak rubbish. Do you even have any proof?”
s.h.i.+ Nianyao smiled. “Of course I do.”
She picked up her cell phone and fished for the picture in her alb.u.m. She forwarded the picture to Qiao Lian. “I took this photo last night.”
Qiao Lian took a look at the picture and saw a man’s back.
That was Best Actor Shen.
Although some people might not be able to identify him by looking at his back, Qiao Lian knew it like the back of her own hand.
But obviously because Nianyao’s full attention had been on Mo Xicheng, his face in the picture was very well focused and clearly taken.
There was a relaxed smile on his face. Under the lighting, that still shot showed off his enviably good looks magnificently.
Qiao Lian gave s.h.i.+ Nianyao a satisfied look and turned off her cell phone screen, holding it behind her back, when Su Meimei tried to take a peek.
Su Meimei laughed derisively. “I couldn’t even see a thing. How could I know if it has not been edited?”
Qiao Lian smiled. “Do you think that everyone lacks integrity, like yourself? Besides, why would I need to show you the picture? Would Team One show us the reports that you’ve yet to publish?”
She turned and sat behind the computer saying, “Nianyao, I will start editing. Let’s get the big news out today.”
Then she turned to Su Meimei. “Other than this, I wonder if you should go get yourself ready to do some cleaning? How about during lunch time you just clean up your office? Team Two’s office doesn’t need cleaning.”
Then she paused and smiled sweetly. “Because I’m quite worried that with your clumsy fingers, you might break my computer.”
That tone of disdain infuriated Su Meimei so much that her body trembled with anger.
She raised her shaking hand and pointed at Qiao Lian. “You—”
Qiao Lian widened her eyes, looking extremely innocent. “What did you just say?”
Su Meimei felt as though she was choking on her own blood and was so angry that she couldn’t utter a single word.
–
After Su Meimei left, s.h.i.+ Nianyao edited the report, added the picture and immediately published it online.
The moment the article was published, it started trending steadily until it hit the peak of the hot searches ranking.
This piece of news about Mo Xicheng had been boiling on the burner for some time.
This article acted greatly in his favor, and Mo Xicheng’s fans were now even more loyal to him than ever.
The clarification after the scandal was beautifully executed and in those two days, the news agency received a lot of positive attention.
Liu Zhixing praised Team Two and even smiled widely at Qiao Lian, making Su Meimei fume with anger.
When noon came and everyone was out having lunch, Su Meimei and Zhang Chunhua did the cleaning for Team One’s office.
When the members of Team One returned, they were horrified by the fact that their office was in a worse state than before.
But they did not dare to voice any complaints, although in their hearts they were displeased.
Closer to the end of the work day, Qiao Lian received a message from Shen Liangchuan:
[Waiting for you downstairs.]
Just those few words were enough to send her into panic.
That morning’s bouquet incident made her want to crawl into a hole and disappear altogether. She wasn’t too sure if Shen Liangchuan would have forgiven her.
What should she do now?
As she stepped out of the building, she saw that Shen Liangchuan was already waiting for her with his new car.
The car he had been driving before was now easily recognizable from the exposure it had gotten through the news article.
She looked around to ensure that no one was paying any attention before she quickly got into the car.
