Suddenly, Gu Xiaoxu smiled: "You are the one who was found, right? Why are you feeling wronged?"
Zhao Ruihe said: "Of course I feel wronged, and my impression points will be deducted."
"I wanted to confess to you, don't tell me you didn't see it!"
Gu Xiaoxu was a little panicked, but also a little relieved that "ah, this moment has finally come".
She said: "I don't hate you, but I won't agree to it."
Just when Zhao Ruihe wanted to ask for clarification, the fat cat in his arms scratched his hand impatiently. Fortunately, he dodged quickly so no blood was seen.
Gu Xiaoxu said, "Let's finish the formalities first, so that it won't cause trouble again."
Zhao Ruihe pointed at the counter and said, "Pick a tag. I'll engrave your contact information on it. If this little fat guy wanders around again, someone will contact you."
While Zhao Ruihe was carving the words, Gu Xiaoxu clicked on the news push.
The news title was four big words: Looking for Xiaoxu.
At that moment, Gu Xiaoxu had an ominous premonition in his heart.
She tried several times with shaking hands before she finally clicked on the news.
The news reported that in a famous impoverished mountainous area in my country, there was a villager named Zhou Laifu who spent all his savings to marry a wife. Unexpectedly, his wife was a liar and ran away with a man from the city not long after giving birth to a child.
She even took away the family's few savings, leaving only the poor father and son.
At the end of the article, the report said that "Wei Guan News" has invited the father and son involved to do a series of reports, and asked the public to actively provide clues.
Gu Xiaoxu suddenly felt like vomiting.
They actually found it.
She took a few steps back in disbelief and ran away.
Zhao Ruihe looked at the tag in his hand blankly, then looked at Daju, and said dissatisfiedly: "What did you do wrong? Why did she run away!"
The big orange cat refused to take the blame and kept meowing and scolding him.
It was not until she saw the words "Looking for Xiaoxu" that Lin Jiaqiao remembered why she hated He Youwei so much.
Originally, after she was fired by Cui Baixing, she also fabricated such a news. She used an innocent girl as a sacrifice, and her "Wei Guan News" became a hit.
As a media person, Lin Jiaqiao knows very well how to deal with fake news. It is useless to refute rumors. People prefer conspiracy theories to the truth.
The correct way to deal with this kind of news is not to read it, not to listen to it, not to discuss it, not to click on it, and not to give it any traffic.
News without traffic is useless news.
So the original timeline, Lin Jiaqiao couldn't stop He Youwei from making trouble, so she chose to ignore it and not allow this news to gain any discussion among her.
This time, she was going to use the same method, but she thought, if she had a chance to live again, why not try to save a life.
She decided to stop He Youwei.
The office building of 'Wei Guan News' is easy to find.
On the day He Youwei signed the contract, the media matrix of her group reported it extensively. Almost all television, newspapers, websites and radio stations were promoting the event.
The taxi driver who brought Lin Jiaqiao here mistakenly thought she was a staff member of "Wei Guan News" and insisted on telling her about the bad things he had encountered and asked her to help him solve them.
Lin Jiaqiao thought that although "Wei Guan News" would not help drivers solve their problems, they should like this kind of news very much.
They like all news that questions the quality of the people, official policies, and sells anxiety.
Lin Jiaqiao wrote down the driver's contact information and planned to contact him later.
In front of the "Wei Guan News" office building, Lin Jiaqiao listed several key points of his speech on his mobile phone.
This is what Qin Guan taught her.
When she negotiated with others before, she always said whatever came to her mind, and her imagination was unrestrained. Qin Guan asked her to list the key points.
In fact, Lin Jiaqiao had already backed down in his heart.
She knew He Youwei's character and knew that she would not miss this opportunity to earn traffic. Moreover, she had offended her badly before, and with her petty personality, she might slap her in the face.
Lin Jiaqiao sighed. Let her hit him if she wants. A slap in the face for a life is worth it.
She was cheering herself up when someone called her, "Brother Bird?"
It’s Qian Wei.
"Why are you here?" he asked in disbelief, "Did you change jobs here too?"
Lin Jiaqiao wanted to ask him why he was here. After all, according to the original timeline, he should have stayed in "Reading the Newspaper at Leisure".
She patted Qian Wei's shoulder sadly: "Brother Wei, no matter what time it is, Youxian Dubao will be waiting for you to come home."
Qian Wei was a little disgusted, but also a little excited. He asked, "Did you come here specifically to recruit me?"
"Not really." Lin Jiaqiao said, "I'm here to look for He Youwei."
Qian Wei's face was full of "how dare you" and "you are so shameless".
He took the person to the secretary, "She came to see Editor He." After thinking for a moment, he added, "Editor He has taken her in before."
After saying that, he gave Lin Jiaqiao a look that told him to wish him good luck.
Contrary to Lin Jiaqiao's expectations, He Youwei did not embarrass her.
She quickly came to meet her in the reception room, even with a smile on her face.
It was a genuine, heartfelt laugh.
More real than any time before.
"Do you think I don't like you?"
Perhaps seeing the surprise on Lin Jiaqiao's face, He Youwei acted like a host and personally poured her a glass of water.
"I actually like you."
"You have clear goals, are willing to sacrifice, and have thick skin—"
Lin Jiaqiao thought she was taking the opportunity to scold him, but he heard her say, "It's very similar to me."
He Youwei looked at her and said seriously, "I have taught many people, but you are the one I care about the most. Do you think I am giving face to my master?"
"At first it was, but then I really wanted to teach you."
"Before we had a quarrel, I really was training you as my heir."
Lin Jiaqiao discovered that He Youwei at this moment was very different from what she remembered.
It’s different from before and it’s different from after.
At this time, she was very confident, the kind of confidence that was neither naive nor accidental.
Maybe it was because she had just had her nose and chin augmented, and her face hadn't collapsed yet. Lin Jiaqiao thought that she was much prettier now than when she had a semi-permanent smile later.
Lin Jiaqiao wanted to believe her, but he also felt that she wanted to ease the relationship with him because of Lin Dapeng.
She had used the opportunity of joking to test Lin Jiaqiao before and asked her to go to Lin Dapeng to ask for the exclusive information.
Lin Jiaqiao thought that He Youwei had not done anything wrong at this time and there was no conflict between them.
She also thought that He Youwei’s disappearance might be related to this incident.
But it's hard to say. Looking back on He Youwei's career, she has done a lot of things without any bottom line. Who knows when she will offend someone.
Lin Jiaqiao is not a god, so he cannot protect her from harm. He can only ask her to do less evil.
Lin Jiaqiao said: "I saw your plan, it's-"
He Youwei interrupted her, "You know the story that made Reporter Cui famous, 'Disguised as a beggar and went undercover in a mountain village to rescue a kidnapped woman', right? 'Xiao Xu' was the kidnapped girl who was rescued."
"Do you think I chose this title on purpose to get back at Cui Boxing?"
"No. I really think this is not normal."
"Do you think it's possible that someone would dress up as a beggar, eat leftovers and dirty water, and not take a bath for ten days or half a month just for a stranger?"
"And that Xiaoxu, she is not an orphan, she has a family. If she wanted to leave, why didn't she call her family? If she didn't want to, why did she give birth to a child for that man?"
"If she doesn't want to, she can call the police. Even if the police don't care, she can still ask neighbors and passers-by for help."
"I've looked up Xiaoxu's information. She should be the same age as me. She's not an ignorant little girl. If she doesn't like it, why doesn't she run away?"
He Youwei's hometown is in the countryside. Her family is ordinary. Her grandfather and father are farmers who make a living from the land. Compared with her classmates, her life in childhood was not decent.
In her heart, there is no one in the world who is poorer than her.
So she didn't believe that some villages had no electricity, that some towns couldn't build roads, that some places were surrounded by mountains and there was no way to escape, and that some people got married not just to live together but just to reproduce.
However, she concealed her thoughts very well, and Lin Jiaqiao had no way of knowing.
But Lin Jiaqiao had seen such people before.
They only believe what they believe, and their interpretation of the world only follows their own logic. It has nothing to do with reading and IQ, these people are just ignorant.
Lin Jiaqiao asked: "I think it is a basic quality of being a human being not to speculate about others based on your own shallow experience."
He Youwei looked at her and said, "Okay, let's not talk about Xiao Xu for now, what about Cui Baixing?"
"Do you think you can do this for a stranger?"
Lin Jiaqiao noticed something, "Did you hear any news?"
He Youwei hesitated for a moment and said, "I heard from Xiaoxu's husband that Xiaoxu was having an affair with Cui Baixing."
Lin Jiaqiao found it ridiculous.
What's even more ridiculous is that her instinctive reaction was not to defend Cui Boxing, but to think that Xiao Xu's husband would never use such civilized words.
Lin Jiaqiao looked at her coldly:
"I understand. You suspect Cui Boxing, right?"
"You can't go that far for a stranger, so you doubt him."
"You can't go that far for the truth, so you doubt him."
"You're making up fake news for ratings, so you doubt him."
"Are you really doubting Cui Boxing? You are just making excuses for yourself."
"You want to prove that Cui Boxing is a liar and a hypocrite, so that you can convince yourself that you did the right thing."
Lin Jiaqiao thought, people are so similar when they fall.
When she turned "Youxian Reading Newspaper" into a marketing account, she convinced herself by saying "He Youwei did it, so there's nothing wrong with me doing it."
Lin Jiaqiao said: "You actually feel guilty, right?"
"You were Master's intern at the time. You know better than anyone whether he cheated or not."
In fact, she had already cursed He Youwei in her heart, but on the surface she still pretended to be mysterious.
