Otherwise, she wasn’t really interested in knowing.
What she wanted to confirm was whether Mou Wen intended to replace her. Fortunately, Mou Wen had no such idea.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t tolerate her.
Wu Tong waved his hand, "Alright then, since you’re unwilling, I’ll let soone else handle this matter."
"Thank you, Chief Editor."
"You may leave."
Walking out of the chief editor’s office, Mou Wen finally felt the air was a bit fresher; she understood Wu Tong’s hidden intentions quite well.
As for one of the founders, Board mber Gu Ji, Mou Wen knew what kind of person he was too.
He wasn’t subtle about dropping various hints, all of which Mou Wen had firmly rejected.
Mou Wen was exceptional at her job; otherwise, she might have been let go long ago.
The other two board mbers were rarely seen, but they were upright and ambitious, as different from Gu Ji as night is from day.
She took a deep breath, gathered her thoughts, and returned to her place. The deputy editors’ office was a separated area.
There were four deputy editors in there.
She was accustod to not interacting with the other deputy editors; firstly, because they all disliked each other due to the competitive relationship.
Secondly, because of their conceit, none of them wanted to waste ti on each other.
Mou Wen, young and beautiful, had made quite a mark in Mingjiang within three years. A pretty girl like her always got accused of ulterior motives once she nailed so big projects.
The more people talked, the more twisted the rumors beca.
But Mou Wen didn’t care.
Thinking as she walked, a leg suddenly stretched out, and Mou Wen stumbled but quickly steadied herself.
Her delicate eyebrows slightly furrowed.
The foot belonged to one of the deputy editors, isha, a senior figure who had been with Mingjiang for seven years, witnessing its growth.
After all, Mingjiang had only existed for eight years.
"Sorry."
isha apologized flippantly, as if this wasn’t a big deal, "It’s your fault for not seeing it."
Mou Wen calmly withdrew her gaze, said it was alright, then accidentally knocked over the coffee on isha’s desk the next instant.
The cup toppled, coffee spilling across the desk and onto isha’s suit.
Today, she was wearing an apricot-colored suit that looked neat and simple, but with the coffee stain, it looked ridiculous.
isha scread in anger, "What are you doing?"
Mou Wen glanced over coolly and casually apologized, "Sorry."
isha was furious, her anger quickly drawing everyone’s attention. She prided herself on maintaining her image and wouldn’t ruin it by quarreling with Mou Wen here. So she glared at Mou Wen, her tone full of threat;
"You just wait."
Mou Wen shrugged and returned to her seat. The deputy editor next to her said coolly, "Xiaomou, you just did that on purpose, didn’t you?"
Mou Wen chuckled lightly, her voice icy, "Oh, according to you, Lin Jie, she can trip as I pass by;
If I fall for it, it’s my bad luck, and if not, she’s not at fault, right?"
The deputy editor called Lin Jie by Mou Wen was embarrassed and said nothing more, sowhat regretting getting involved in such matters.
Mou Wen’s mood for the day was entirely ruined, and the only male deputy editor sat quietly like a chicken, not saying a word. In a woman’s battle,
he was definitely the smart one.
isha hadn’t returned for a long ti and when she did, she had changed her clothes to sothing very familiar.
Her face had also lost its previous anger, replaced by a hint of a smile.
Lin Jie looked at her in surprise, "You went to the bathroom and managed to change into new clothes?"
isha laughed, "Wu the chief editor lent them to , and also assigned a task."
After speaking, her gaze seed to deliberately fall onto Mou Wen, whose expression remained unchanged. isha thought, at this mont, she’s putting up quite an act.
But what’s the use.
isha felt as if she’d snatched a major task right out of Mou Wen’s hands.
Her whole body was filled with excitent.
Lin Jie exclaid, her laughter hollow and sowhat perfunctory, "Did sothing good happen? Care to tell us.
What task did the editor assign you? To interview Daniu?"
isha raised an eyebrow, "It’s more than just Daniu, you’ll never guess who."
Hearing that, Lin Jie and the male deputy editor beca more curious, "Who is it?"
isha returned to her seat, enthusiastically saying, "Do you rember the buzz about Bo Zhi on the internet so ti ago?
Apparently, he’s now the director of a research institute, privately funded by him, helping enterprises;
young as he is, his accomplishnts and track record are astonishingly impressive. The task the chief editor gave this issue is to interview this person;
with both parents in the sa circle, he’s quite a hot topic."
