CHAPTER 1013: CHAPTER 757: BO ZHI 8_3

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 someone 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 Member 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 members 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 accustomed 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 time 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 some big projects.

The more people talked, the more twisted the rumors became.

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, Meisha, a senior figure who had been with Mingjiang for seven years, witnessing its growth.

After all, Mingjiang had only existed for eight years.

"Sorry."

Meisha 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 Meisha’s desk the next instant.

The cup toppled, coffee spilling across the desk and onto Meisha’s suit.

Today, she was wearing an apricot-colored suit that looked neat and simple, but with the coffee stain, it looked ridiculous.

Meisha screamed in anger, "What are you doing?"

Mou Wen glanced over coolly and casually apologized, "Sorry."

Meisha 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 me 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, somewhat 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.

Meisha hadn’t returned for a long time and when she did, she had changed her clothes to something 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?"

Meisha laughed, "Wu the chief editor lent them to me, and also assigned me a task."

After speaking, her gaze seemed to deliberately fall onto Mou Wen, whose expression remained unchanged. Meisha thought, at this moment, she’s putting up quite an act.

But what’s the use.

Meisha felt as if she’d snatched a major task right out of Mou Wen’s hands.

Her whole body was filled with excitement.

Lin Jie exclaimed, her laughter hollow and somewhat perfunctory, "Did something good happen? Care to tell us.

What task did the editor assign you? To interview Daniu?"

Meisha raised an eyebrow, "It’s more than just Daniu, you’ll never guess who."

Hearing that, Lin Jie and the male deputy editor became more curious, "Who is it?"

Meisha returned to her seat, enthusiastically saying, "Do you remember the buzz about Bo Zhi on the internet some time ago?

Apparently, he’s now the director of a research institute, privately funded by him, helping enterprises;

young as he is, his accomplishments and track record are astonishingly impressive. The task the chief editor gave me this issue is to interview this person;

with both parents in the same circle, he’s quite a hot topic."
