In the early morning, when the rain had just stopped, people from the magazine came to work one after another. They came in to shake their umbrellas and pat their clothes, bringing a gust of chill.
Zheng Shuyi didn't sleep well at night, and when she got up early, she found herself a little haggard, so she deliberately applied a mask for a while, and went out late, almost stepping into the office.
She was not in good spirits, so she didn't notice that Qin Shiyue looked at her several times.
Although there was no evidence, Qin Shiyue always felt that the person staying at Shi Yan's house last night was Zheng Shuyi.
Until noon, Qin Shiyue went downstairs to get the lunch brought to her by her aunt. In the rest area, she heard a few people chatting.
"Zheng Shuyi is too miserable, Mingyu got stuck with several manuscripts."
"I don't know if I offended someone."
"It must be. Her manuscripts are of high quality, and she has never been blocked by anyone."
"I see that she has taken her computer with her after get off work these days, so she must have stayed up all night."
"Yeah, it feels like everyone has lost weight, it's really miserable."
Qin Shiyue pondered carefully for a few minutes.
She knew very well that Shi Yan arranged for her to come here because she had gone too far with her graduation work, and wanted to grind her temper.
Since she was required to practice, naturally she would not reveal her identity and background, only a few senior executives of the magazine knew about it.
Otherwise, if everyone favors her, she will just change to another place and become a princess and run amok.
But experience belongs to experience, not without principles.
With the status of the Shi family and the status of Shi Yan, they have always been used to being arrogant, so naturally they would not allow someone to treat and bully his little niece so harshly.
She was miserable at home that day, and she didn't mean to target Zheng Shuyi, but just wanted to leave this place quickly.
But the result now at least shows that Shi Yan still protects her.
Qin Shiyue let out a long sigh of relief, because the boredom caused by going to work has dissipated a lot.
At the same time, she was also sure that Xiao Jiaojiao who was at Shi Yan's house last night was definitely not Zheng Shuyi.

After Shi Yan's interview draft was over, Zheng Shuyi finally relaxed a bit, and sent Shi Yan a message if he had nothing to do.
For several days in a row, good morning, good afternoon, good night, never say a word.
It's okay to read a few words to him.
Although he never came back.
So Zheng Shuyi changed a note for him.
Illiterate who can't type.
This comforts myself, and my mood is much better.
There was a regular meeting this afternoon. After the routine work report, Tang Yi said that there would be a press conference of Mingyu Bank the day after tomorrow.
"Zheng Shuyi, you go to this press conference."
Zheng Shuyi asked Tang Yi: "Who are there?"
Tang Yi flipped through the information in the computer and gave her a list of names.
Sometimes banquet.
This should be Shi Yan's first public appearance at the press conference.
Zheng Shuyi immediately smiled and nodded: "Okay."
When the meeting ended, Tang Yicai added: "Oh yes, Zheng Shuyi, let's bring Qin Shiyue to the press conference."
Zheng Shuyi agreed.
But when she went to inform Qin Shiyue, she clearly felt that she was unwilling.
Zheng Shuyi actually didn't understand why a rich second generation like Qin Shiyue came to work in such a low-income company.
I don't even understand why she forced herself to come to this press conference.
In fact, she really didn't want to go, so she just told Tang Yi.
Tang Yi has always been a talkative boss.
At this moment, Qin Shiyue not only had rejection written all over her hair, but was also completely black from head to toe. Those who didn't know it thought she was here for a funeral.
Among the suits and leather shoes at the press conference, Qin Shiyue's attire was particularly conspicuous.
As soon as she entered, she froze.
Careless.
Thought that black can not attract attention.
There are more reporters than usual today, and most of them are male reporters.
Zheng Shuyi stood in the back row, his sight covered by the black skull, and he pulled Qin Shiyue forward to push him away.
"What are you doing?" Qin Shiyue was flustered, but she didn't dare to speak loudly, "Aren't there seats at the back? What are you going to do at the front?"
Zheng Shuyi: "I can't hear you clearly in the back row."
"No, hey, you..."
Qin Shiyue didn't dare to make big moves, so she could only let Zheng Shuyi drag her forward.
However, when these male reporters saw Zheng Shuyi, they all made way for her.
Two men even gave up their front row seats.
As soon as he was seated, Zheng Shuyi looked up at the rostrum before putting anything down.
There are seven nameplates on the blue-black table.
And the one in the middle is engraved with the words "Shi Yan".
Zheng Shuyi took a long breath, as if the dust had settled.
Some people are happy and some are sad.
Qin Shiyue hated press conferences the most. It was boring and boring. It was more hypnotic than a lullaby. It was like listening to a heavenly book. She couldn't understand a word.
So she really didn't want to sit in the front row, lest Shi Yan find out when she dozed off.
The venue was spacious, but it was crowded with people, and there were constant voices talking everywhere.
Finally, amidst the host's introduction, the press conference officially began.
The gate of the infield was opened, the rostrum was brightly lit, and Shi Yan came striding forward, tall and straight.
The photographer has always been the most sensitive to vision. Almost at the moment when Shi Yan appeared, his nerves were naturally mobilized, and the shutters of the four cameras came one after another.
He sat down under the eyes of everyone, lowered his head and adjusted his watch.
When he looked up again, he looked straight at the first row.
There was a momentary staggered line of sight.
Zheng Shuyi met his gaze, but neither dodged nor dodged his eyes, looking straight at him.
Just staring at each other for a moment, Shi Yan raised his eyebrows, and his gaze turned to other places lightly.
There is no emotion.
Zheng Shuyi sighed silently.
Other participants filed in, and there was almost no other sound except for the sound of the shutter.
Zheng Shuyi lowered her head to turn on the computer, put it on the table, and when she looked up again, she saw Shi Yan looking at her phone.
Zheng Shuyi immediately took out his mobile phone and sent him a text message.
Zheng Shuyi: Mr. Shi is super handsome today!
Zheng Shuyi: Super A!
Zheng Shuyi: Today's venue is not a press conference, but your charm conference!
Zheng Shuyi: Although I can't speak at the moment, I'm already screaming for you in my heart!
Four text messages were sent out in succession.
Zheng Shuyi raised his eyes quietly, and frowned unobtrusively when he saw Shi Yan.
He did see it.
Zheng Shuyi grabbed the phone and entered again.
Zheng Shuyi: I would rather wear high-heeled shoes on my left foot and leather shoes stuffed with stones on my right foot, and walk thousands of miles to climb Mount Everest, than see you frowning.
After posting, Zheng Shuyi didn't frown when he saw Shi Yan.
He directly buckled the phone on the table.
"Pfft..."
Zheng Shuyi suddenly felt very relieved, and the corner of his mouth curled up in a small arc.
It's just that she didn't have time to hold back her smile, and when she raised her eyes, she met Shang Shiyan's eyes.
This time, he no longer has light eyes.
The frame chased the cold light, and the pupils behind the lenses were deep and dark. When staring at a person closely, a sense of oppression lingered around Zheng Shuyi invisible, with a sense of warning.
Zheng Shuyi hesitated inexplicably, the curvature of the corners of his lips disappeared, and he lowered his head guiltily.
Like a schoolboy caught playing a prank and waiting to be reprimanded.
The press conference started as scheduled.
Shi Yan was the first to speak, but he did not set up a reporter's question session, so the executive officer next to him started a new round of speeches.
Zheng Shuyi typed quickly, and glanced at Qin Shiyue next to her, but saw that she was hanging her head, her cheeks were a little red, and she was in a very nervous state.
"What's wrong with you?" Zheng Shuyi asked in a low voice, "Uncomfortable?"
Qin Shiyue glanced at the rostrum quickly, "I'm fine."
"Tell me if you're not feeling well."
Zheng Shuyi moved closer, "Still not used to such occasions?"
Qin Shiyue was a little annoyed, but she couldn't deny her nervousness, so she frowned and said, "Shi is always looking at me, I'm a little scared for no reason."
Hearing this, Zheng Shuyi raised his head, and sure enough, he met Shi Yan's gaze again.
He didn't seem to mind that Zheng Shuyi noticed his sizing up, his expression didn't change, his eyes were indifferent.
"Don't be nervous." Zheng Shuyi patted Qin Shiyue's hand, "He's looking at me."
Qin Shiyue:
Pretty confident.
—
The press conference was indeed long and dull.
Qin Shiyue was sleepy and nervous, unable to understand what these people were saying at all, hovering between wanting to sleep and not daring to sleep.
After persisting for nearly an hour, she couldn't take it anymore, and told Zheng Shuyi that she was not feeling well and had to go outside to breathe.
Zheng Shuyi didn't stop her, and soon, the seat next to her was empty.
A male reporter who came late and didn't have a seat stood in the aisle for a long time. When he saw someone leaving his seat with a bag, he walked over with a bow.
"Is there anyone else sitting here?"
Zheng Shuyi estimated that Qin Shiyue would not come back, so he shook his head.
The male reporter sat down, looking at Zheng Shuyi who was concentrating on typing from time to time.
More than half an hour passed, and the reporter entered the stage of asking questions.
The reporter's question was very meaningless, but the language was lengthy, and many people in the audience were impatient to listen.
The male reporter next to Zheng Shuyi glanced at the badge hanging in front of him. The angle was wrong, and he couldn’t see the name clearly. He could only see the title "Financial Weekly", so he asked, "Are you a reporter from "Financial Weekly?"
"En." Zheng Shuyi nodded, and after finishing typing the paragraph at hand, he turned to look at him and asked politely, "What about you?"
"I'm a reporter for "Jiangcheng Daily." He smiled, "I was an intern at "Financial Weekly" when I just graduated."
Zheng Shuyi let out an "oh".
The male reporter picked the keyboard nervously with his fingers, and said again: "At that time, my team leader was Tang Yi, did you know him?"
"Well, she is also my current editor-in-chief."
"Oh, has she become the editor-in-chief yet?" The male reporter muttered, "My name is He Boming, what about you?"
"Zheng Shuyi."
"Oh, it's you." He Boming smiled, "I've read many of your articles, and they are very well written."
"Well, thank you."
"Well, let's add a WeChat, and we can call each other if we have any information in the future."
After saying this, the host announced the intermission, so Zheng Shuyi turned to talk to him, "Well, okay."
This kind of daily social interaction also involves work interests. Zheng Shuyi will naturally not refuse to have one more friend and one more information channel.
She took out her mobile phone and opened WeChat and asked, "Shall I scan you or you scan me?"
"Let me sweep you."
"it is good."
Zheng Shuyi opened the QR code again, and pointed the phone screen at He Boming.
When He Boming was holding the phone, Zheng Shuyi turned his chin slightly.
She always felt that there was a line of sight on her.
After scanning, she exited the QR code and opened the "New Friend" interface, and at the same time, the feeling of sight was getting stronger and stronger.
She raised her head suddenly and saw that Shi Yan was still sitting in the same position, her eyes really fell on her.
The eyes of the two met unexpectedly as Zheng Shuyi expected.
The overhead light shone directly on him, casting a shadow on his frame.
He just looked into Zheng Shuyi's eyes so blatantly, his eyes were a little careless, but there was a faint deterrent force in his eyes.
Zheng Shuyi opened his mouth and was about to speak, when he put down the pen in his hand, his voice came along with the sound of the pen colliding with the table lightly.
"Zheng Shuyi."
This was the first time Zheng Shuyi heard him call her name.
He even remembered her name.
The very common three words, the three words that he had to hear countless times every day, were read out of his mouth coldly, but Zheng Shuyi's heart jumped.
She stared blankly at Shi Yan.
"come over."
He dropped these two words, got up and left the rostrum.
