Gu Xiaoxu seemed to have anticipated his words, and she said firmly, "I refuse."
Zhao Ruihe glanced at her chest. He wasn't taking advantage of her, it was just that Gu Xiaoxu's nameplate was pinned on her chest.
Zhao Ruihe pointed at her chest frivolously: "You seem to like your name very much, Miss An Xile."
"You put your name in such a conspicuous place. Did you tell me your name on purpose so that I can date you?"
When she heard the words "An Xile", some scenes that Gu Xiaoxu didn't want to face appeared in front of her eyes, and those painful emotions immediately appeared on her face.
Zhao Ruihe noticed her strangeness and immediately stopped chatting. He asked, "You, you look uncomfortable."
Gu Xiaoxu didn't say anything, walked past him and went straight upstairs.
The next day, at six o'clock in the morning, Lin Jiaqiao was awakened by Qin Guan's call.
Lin Jiaqiao said dissatisfiedly: "Guan Guan, today is Saturday. And you are in the study, less than ten meters away from me, why are you calling?"
Qin Guan's voice was no different from usual. He finished washing up and waited for a long time.
"I'm your boyfriend now, so we have to avoid suspicion. ... Before we get married, I won't even step into your bedroom."
Lin Jiaqiao rolled his eyes. "Shut up! How many times have you and Gu Yiming slept in my bed?"
Qin Guan was shy for a moment, then cleared his throat, "Go brush your teeth. Although I'm only working part-time at Youxian Dubao, it's not good to be late."
Lin Jiaqiao then remembered that journalists have no days off.
Ever since she realized that she could only get one salary, she became more and more self-indulgent and even forgot that she had a job.
It's really bad to slack off.
Lin Jiaqiao got up immediately and ran to the door of the study. She knocked on the door and poked her head in, "You don't have to get up so early, I can drive there myself."
"Don't even think about it!"
Gu Yiming and Lin Dapeng's voices sounded at the same time.
Lin Dapeng said dissatisfiedly: "Lin Zhizhi, the only thing I ask of you is that you don't break the law. Is that hard to do?"
Lin Jiaqiao was also dissatisfied, "Dad, aren't the clothes you are wearing mine?"
Lin Dapeng pulled at his T-shirt, and the green "good" print on it trembled a few times:
"You don't want it anymore. It's not broken. I'm not like you, who wastes things."
Qin Guan was worried that they would quarrel, so he took Lin Jiaqiao's hand and went into the bathroom.
After the two of them left, Lin Dapeng said to Ms. Qiao with some pride: "We are becoming more and more humane."
"You know, this morning she knocked on the door when she entered the room. Before, she would just walk in like a bandit."
"Oh, what did I say? One day, our daughter may become a lady." Lin Dapeng was very pleased. "I will go to work later and ask Lao Lu how he trains police dogs."
Ms. Qiao threw a rag at him and said, "What nonsense are you talking about."
She rolled her eyes at him and said, "Is your daughter doing that because she understands human nature?"
"Of course not." Lin Dapeng helped her serve the porridge. "Hey, do you think I should buy a gift for Zhizhi? This was Pavlov's virtuous cycle."
Ms. Qiao looked at her husband lovingly and said, "Captain Lin, please bring your brain back with you when you go home next time."
"Youxian Dubao" had not yet declined at that time and occupied an entire floor in the most expensive building in CBD.
When Lin Jiaqiao was waiting for the elevator, he happened to meet Hua Zong.
He was a freshman studying journalism. He had no idea what he would do after graduation, so he took advantage of the weekends and holidays to sign up as a 'temporary worker' in various newspapers to experience life in advance.
Lin Jiaqiao joked with him, "You seem to be very satisfied with "You Xian Du Bao". You have been reporting here for two consecutive weeks."
Hua Zong, a freshman, was smoothed over by Lin Jiaqiao and said with vigor, "I really like "Reading Newspapers at Leisure". Just looking at the name, it reminds everyone not to waste their free time and read books and newspapers seriously. It sounds very loving."
“And reporter Choi—”
Lin Jiaqiao looked at him sympathetically and said, “After you join the company, your favorite reporter Cui will tell you the real meaning of the four words ‘Read newspapers when you have free time’, which is to let idle people stay at home to read books and newspapers, and come out less to annoy others.”
After Hua Zong boasted to Cui Baixing about his ten thousand-word essay, he said with some dissatisfaction: "But there are also some very annoying things."
Just when Lin Jiaqiao wanted to ask more questions, the two men had already arrived at the office.
As soon as Mr. Hua entered, someone said, "Mrs. Hua, you're here. Please make me a cup of coffee. Thank you."
It’s Qian Wei.
This guy always looks mean no matter when you look at him.
At that time, He Youwei was the leading actress of "Youxian Reading the Newspaper" and Qian Wei was her capable subordinate.
Seeing the errand boy arrive, the whole group asked for coffee one after another.
After Hua Zong reluctantly brought the coffee over, Qian Wei said again: "It still has to be our Lady Hua, her cooking skills are amazing. Hey Lady, I heard a song yesterday called "Hermaphrodite", it suits you very well, haha."
He said, and the others laughed too.
Reporter Xia said dissatisfiedly: "Why are you bullying the newcomers?"
Qian Wei didn't take her words seriously and called Lin Jiaqiao: "Brother Bird, would you like a drink?"
When Lin Jiaqiao first entered the newspaper, she was confused by her appearance. The vice president and reporter Cui both wanted to train her to be the second "He Youwei" and make her a "leading little actress".
Lin Jiaqiao smiled and said, "Okay, thank you, Madam Qian."
Qian Wei didn't understand at first that Lin Jiaqiao was scolding him, so he corrected her, "My name is not Qian Liang, my name is Qian Wei."
Lin Jiaqiao smiled and nodded, and said in a broadcast voice of Mandarin Level 1B: "Okay, Qian Niang, I understand, Qian Niang."
Qian Wei couldn't hold on to his smile at this time, "No, Brother Bird, what do you mean? I didn't offend you, did I?"
Lin Jiaqiao pretended to be surprised, "I was complimenting you. To repay you for buying me coffee, I used my gender to compliment you."
Qian Wei realized at this moment that she was standing up for Mr. Hua. He said in dissatisfaction: "I was just joking—"
"But I'm serious." Lin Jiaqiao put away his smile, "Why are you angry? Do you think I'm scolding you?"
"What's wrong with you, mom? What bad things did your mother do to make you despise this word so much?"
"Or maybe you just look down on women and are born sexist."
"Are you the kind of person who, if you gave birth to a daughter as your first child, would definitely have a second child, and hope for a son? You would tell yourself and others that a son and a daughter are a good combination, as this is auspicious. That's right, this statement sounds better than favoring sons over daughters."
Since joining the company, Lin Jiaqiao has been acting like a sweet girl. This is the first time she has been rude to someone.
The atmosphere was really awkward, so He Youwei came out to smooth things over. She said softly, "Xiaowei didn't mean that, he was just joking, don't be so sensitive."
She looked at Hua Zong and said, "That's how adults are. You should get used to it as soon as possible."
She usually disdains to talk to Mr. Hua, but now she takes the initiative to strike up a conversation with him, and Mr. Hua is quite flattered.
Lin Jiaqiao didn't buy it: "I don't think this is a joke. If the person involved doesn't find a joke funny, it's bullying."
She looked at He Youwei, "But you, you took the initiative to show weakness, flirt with men, and use your gender advantage in exchange for a little bit of benefits. Is this really okay?"
It has been a long time since anyone dared to speak to He Youwei like this, not to mention that what Lin Jiaqiao said was true.
He Youwei was very angry, but she still forced a smile: "Lin Jiaqiao, go to the HR department now to complete the resignation procedures. I can't work with a colleague like you."
Qian Wei and other colleagues also said sarcastically, "What kind of person is this? You haven't even become famous yet, but you think you're a dish."
Hua Zong nervously tugged at Lin Jiaqiao's sleeve, "I'm fine, please apologize."
Lin Jiaqiao is not someone who criticizes people blindly.
She had calculated the time. He Youwei was fired in the past few days. Almost all of these angry people followed her and left. She regarded them as gifts of surrender to her new employer, and then they were fired again soon after.
The only one left was Qian Wei.
Lin Jiaqiao said, "He Youwei, you're probably mistaken. Of all the people here, you are the least qualified to say such things. You are the most annoying person."
This time no one refuted Lin Jiaqiao. They all thought she was crazy.
In silence, the office door was pushed open and Cui Boxing came in with a sullen face.
He had not yet become an athlete at that time. He was a little fat and looked like a kindly middle-aged uncle. It was hard to associate him with the famous Cui Boxing.
Just when He Youwei and her group wanted to complain, he said sternly, "He Youwei, come to my office."
He Youwei was stunned, and as usual, she said in a sweet voice: "Master, why are you so serious? It makes me so nervous."
Lin Jiaqiao secretly snapped her fingers. It seemed that she was lucky, as He Youwei was fired today.
After Cui Boxing and He Youwei left, her subordinates looked at each other in bewilderment, and some of them sneaked out to find out what happened. Lin Jiaqiao thought of the chaos after He Youwei left, calmly turned on the computer, found alternative plans among the eliminated topics, and began to write the plan.
Qian Wei's temper came and went quickly. His workstation was not far from Lin Jiaqiao. Seeing her busy at work, he wheeled his chair over and asked, "Did you offend He Youwei? How can you keep your temper?"
Lin Jiaqiao didn't have time to talk to him, and curled the corner of his mouth insincerely.
At this time, Mr. Hua came back. He looked incredulous and whispered, "Editor He, he's fired."
He Youwei's affair was exposed by a businessman.
The merchant gave He Youwei a sum of money to help promote his products when reporting the news. Unexpectedly, He Youwei took the money but did nothing. The merchant was also stubborn and reported her directly to the newspaper.
Cui Boxing initially didn't believe that his apprentice would do such a thing, so he went to investigate personally, and lo and behold, He Youwei almost broke the law.
At that time, "Youxian Dubao" had no shortage of people and money. The newspaper had a group of investigative reporters who went undercover in various industries for years to collect information on their violations.
He Youwei was so good that she used the information to extort money.
Cui Boxing was very sentimental about their old friendship, and although he was angry, he did not intend to fire He Youwei at first.
