Qiao Lian was feeling terrible at the moment. After seeing Fan Jie—the culprit of the entire situation—an inexplicable fury surged within her suddenly.
Honestly, other than the occasional trouble that the chief editor created for her, Su Meimei had not been a threat to her at all throughout her time at the news agency. Even after the managing editor joined, she still considered herself safe.
However, this time around, she could not take it anymore.
Thus, she completely ignored Fan Jie’s greeting. After angrily shooting at him a glare, she immediately went downstairs and left!
Fan Jie stared blankly in the direction Qiao Lian had walked away in. Scratching his head, he looked at his manager cluelessly. “What’s with sister-in-law?”
Just then, someone walked out of the office and saw Fan Jie. Momentarily shocked, he exclaimed, “Fan Jie is here!”
As soon as the managing editor and Su Meimei, who had just chased Qiao Lian away, heard this, they hurried outside. Both of them immediately bowed and greeted Fan Jie when they saw him.
Rubbing his hands together excitedly, the managing editor walked forward and said, “Mr Fan, it’s our honor to have you visiting our news agency!”
Su Meimei’s eyes lit up as well.
The news agency would have surely deployed a reporter for the exclusive interview based on the time and location that Fan Jie provided, so there was absolutely no need for him to visit the news agency. But now, the reason for Fan Jie to come personally… must have been because of her!
Could it be that she had left a deep impression on Fan Jie that time they met?
Su Meimei smilingly stepped forward and asked cordially, “Mr Fan, is there a reason for your visit?”
Fan Jie was still looking at Qiao Lian, so he questioned in bewilderment, “What happened to her just now?”
“Who?” Su Meimei asked.
Fan Jie pointed outside. “Sister- Oh, the girl that walked out just now? She didn’t look too well.”
Su Meimei instantly understood who he was referring to and her heart sank unknowingly.
She had always believed that whatever hurt Qiao Lian should not be spared. Hence, she immediately tried to equivocate, “Oh, she was supposed to interview someone today. But she was late due to traffic congestion and was humiliated by the celebrity.”
Only touching on the topic briefly, she looked at Fan Jian again with a smile and changed the subject. “Mr Fan, did you come to the news agency to look for me?”
Fan Jie’s attention was already fixated on the first sentence Su Meimei had said. Nothing went in his ear after that, so he just replied with a casual ‘oh’.
However, Su Meimei squared her shoulders when she heard this ‘oh’. She glanced proudly at the managing editor and colleagues, who had come after hearing about Fan Jie’s visit.
Then, it dawned on Fan Jie that his sister-in-law was in a bad mood because of her work!
She had been late for the interview… so she must have been scolded badly.
Turning around in an instant, he started walking out as he informed, “I suddenly remembered that I have some urgent matters to attend to, so I’ll take my leave first.”
He had left even before crossing the entrance the news agency.
Not only had Fan Jie’s visit been sudden, his leave had been even more abrupt.
However, his visit definitely had made Su Meimei feel very proud of herself.
She had known for a long time that some people were still unconvinced, even though she had snatched Fan Jie’s exclusive interview and Team Two’s chief editor position.
This was especially true for the managing editor. Despite their special relationship, that sly old fox had yet to submit the letter of appointment to the headquarters!
They had always been skeptical about the fact that she had snatched Fan Jie’s exclusive interview.
But now, look! No one would doubt her anymore!

Fan Jie walked out of the news agency. As soon as he alighted from the lift, he immediately whipped out his phone. After looking for a contact, he dialed it at once.
The call was answered after only a few rings. Shen Liangchuan’s deep voice could be heard from the other end. “Brother Shen, let me tell you something. Sister-in-law is in a terrible mood today!”
