Shen Liangchuan had been jilted by his first love . If this piece of news were to be reported, it would definitely hit the headlines .
As Qiao Lian entertained herself with these thoughts, she was filled with inexpressible dejection, as she sat on her seat in the office and stared at the computer screen .
When Xiao Ye heard her sigh again, she patted her shoulder and said, âSister Qiao, donât be sad . I have already explained the situation about that day to the chief editor and the managing editor . Best Actor Shen is so scary, who would be daring enough to dig for his news? The managing editor will empathize with you . â
Will he?
Just as Qiao Lian was deep in thought, the office phone rang . When she picked up, it was the managing editor, Liu Zhixingâs . âQiao Lian, please come to my office . â
Was he going to confront her?
Qiao Lian stood up with a bitter expression on her face . She walked to the office of the managing editor and knocked on the door . Just as the door opened, Liu Zhixing was standing near it, filled with smiles . His huge mole moved together with his laughter, making him look ludicrous .
He enthusiastically spoke, âQiao Lian, youâre here . Please come in!â
After he finished speaking, he reached out his hand and grabbed Qiao Lianâs wrist, pulling her into the room .
Qiao Lian raised her eyebrows, but she was not bothered by it .
âTake a seat!â Liu Zhixing pointed at the sofa and then walked beside her . âDo you want tea or water?â
Qiao Lian hurriedly waved her hands in rejection . âManaging Editor, itâs alright . â
It would be crazy if she dared command the managing editor . Liu Zhixing did not insist, so he walked over and sat right beside Qiao Lian . âIâve heard from Xiao Ye about your situation . Indeed, Best Actor Shen is famous for being private and itâs really hard to find about his gossip . He even used the car to scare you, you must have been so shocked . â
Qiao Lian laughed and replied, âItâs alright, Iâm iron-hearted, Iâm not scared . â
âXiao Lian, you are so humorous . â
Errr⌠Xiao Lian??
Qiao Lian got goosebumps on her back when she heard his nickname for her .
She awkwardly laughed and tested him, âMr . Liu, then, about finding the identity of Mrs . Shen-â
âThereâs no rush . Xiao Lian, look, this is a chocolate that my friend has brought me from overseas . You can have it, â Liu Zhixing took out a box of chocolates from his drawer and handed it to Qiao Lian . Qiao Lian immediately winced and pushed the chocolate back to him . âItâs ok, Managing Editor . â
She felt like the managing editor was acting weird today, but she couldnât pinpoint what exactly was wrong .
He was acting unaccountably solicitous with evil intentions behind .
She perked herself up and stared at him .
With a smile, Liu Zhixing placed the chocolate on the coffee table and stuck his hand out to hold Qiao Lianâs hand . âXiao Lian, you are the core of our news agency . You must continue doing well, ok?â
After he finished his words, he moved even closer to Qiao Lian .
A stinking breath was sent into her face, which disgusted Qiao Lian .
She hurriedly moved backwards, wanting to pull her hand out of his grasp . However, before she was able to move, Liu Zhixing was already holding her shoulder . âXiao Lian, actually, I asked you to come over because I have something to tell you . â
He slowly moved nearer to her . âI know your chief editor is against you . As long as I back you up, you will be safe in the news agency . Do you agree?â
He exhaled his breath on her face, causing Qiao Lian to squint her eyes .
Thereafter, he once again moved closer and just as he was about to kiss her face, Qiao Lian violently pushed him away and stood up . She casually spoke, âManaging Editor, I have a boyfriend . â
Liu Zhixingâs face immediately became gloomy . âBoyfriend? Can your boyfriend help you find out who Mrs . Shen is?â
