Shi Nianyao said with a worried expression, “She was already being so nasty to me, it’ll just be worse for you.”

Qiao Lian reached for the draft that Shi Nianyao was holding in her hand, and then turned and walked towards Team One’s office.

As she entered, Zhang Chunhua was just chatting with her colleagues about skincare products.

Walking over to her, Qiao Lian started speaking, “Deputy Managing Editor, this draft—”

Zhang Chunhua immediately rolled her eyes and chided her, “Can’t you see I’m discussing work with the others? There’s an order to things!”

Qiao Lian paused.

So it seemed like Zhang Chunhua was going to have her just stand there, waiting like a fool?

While a person with a mild temper may just obediently do as Zhang Chunhua said, Qiao Lian however was not by any means an easy pushover.

Curling her lips, she retorted, “Since when were skincare products our work? We are entertainment reporters. Skincare products don’t seem to align with our department’s work.”

Zhang Chunhua was stumped.

She looked up at Qiao Lian and narrowed her eyes at once.

Qiao Lian stared back at her steadily. “Well then, Deputy Managing Editor, why don’t you continue chatting and I’ll hand the draft to the Managing Editor?”

On this note, she turned and started to walk away.

Zhang Chunhua stood up immediately and called out, “Come back here!”

Qiao Lian halted and turned around.

Scowling, Zhang Chunhua walked back into her office. “Come over here.”

Qiao Lian followed Zhang Chunhua. The woman took the draft from Qiao Lian and glanced through it briefly before throwing it down on the desk. “I’ve already said that the writing style is too mundane. People read entertainment news for the gossip. Your writing style is so conforming to the norm that it lacks fervor and intensity. You have to rewrite it!”

Qiao Lian paused.

To put feelings into an entertainment news report? Did she want it written in the style of a novel? Stumped, Qiao Lian asked, “Deputy Managing Editor, how do you want it written?”

Zhang Chunhua laughed derisively. “Why are you such a dimwit? Don’t you understand what I’m trying to say?”

Qiao Lian nodded. “I’m quite unintelligent and really unable to make meaning out of your instructions. Why don’t you help me write it?!”

Zhang Chunhua slammed the table top with her hand angrily when she heard this. “Ridiculous! I’m a Deputy Managing Editor. If I have to draft reports, then what does the agency need you guys for?”

Qiao Lian nodded again. “So you are determined to make things difficult for me?”

Zhang Chunhua narrowed her eyes. “Ever since Meimei resigned, she lost 10 kilograms! And even now she is not eating or drinking much.”

Qiao Lian was flabbergasted. “But what does that have to do with me?”

Scowling, the infuriated Zhang Chunhua added, “Qiao Lian, let’s get straight to the point. Weren’t you the one who informed Liu Zhixing’s wife so that she would come charging up here?”

Qiao Lian nodded without hesitation. “Yes, it was me.”

Zhang Chunhua stood up and continued, “So why do you say it has nothing to do with you? It’s because of you that Meimei has become what she is today! Let me tell you, you won’t see the end of this! Take this draft with you and get it re-written. And you will work on it until I’m happy with it. Otherwise, your team won’t even be able to think of going home!”

Qiao Lian looked at Zhang Chunhua in disbelief. Was this person right in the mind?

She actually thought it was reasonable for Su Meimei to be a third party breaking up other people’s marriage? And the person who had blown the cover had now become the sinner?

Qiao Lian twitched her lips and couldn’t help herself from bursting out in laughter. “So, you’re blaming me for saving Su Meimei from being the third party?”

Zhang Chunhua’s expression turned ugly at this point. “Stop using the word third party! Meimei and Liu Zhixing are friends!”

“Being in that sort of friendship with a married man isn’t being a third party?” Qiao Lian’s perspective on values were at the verge of falling apart.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
