All Qiao Lian could think about was if Shen Liangchuan’s gesture of specially looking for her to comfort her meant that he liked her?
As a result, she did no longer process any of Fan Jie’s incessant talking .
She finally sent Fan Jie off after much effort . On the way back to the news agency, her heartbeat started racing quickly and her cheeks burnt uncontrollably whenever she thought of Shen Liangchuan .
She could not help but lower her head . After thinking for a moment, she picked up her phone and sent a WeChat message to Shen Liangchuan .
[What time do you get off work tonight?]
She sent the message and proceeded into the news agency .
The moment she stepped in, she was faced with Su Meimei .
As if she was looking at an enemy, she glared at Qiao Lian with red eyes . That look made Qiao Lian wonder if she had done something that despicable .
She was walking past Su Meimei calmly when she heard her say, “Qiao Lian, don’t get too excited . So what if you have the upper hand now? You seduced Fan Jie with some cajoleries, but all you get in return is just a piece of news! If you were actually capable, you would have been able to fire me like I fired you!”
Stopping in her tracks, she turned around and looked at her .
She had not voiced out this request to Liu Zhixing then because the managing editor and Liu Zhixing were still in the news agency . Hence, it was true that she could not fire Su Meimei .
However, as she listened to her, she could not stifle her smile . “Actually, it’s better that you stayed . ”
Su Meimei flinched .
Qiao Lian explained, “If you stay, you will be able to see clearly that you are merely a toy that can be discarded any time in Liu Zhixing’s eyes . ”
“You—!” Stepping forward, she stretched out her arm to hit her . However, she was stopped as Qiao Lian instantly grabbed her wrist .
Looking at the woman who was on the brink of losing it, Qiao Lian scoffed, “Su Meimei, tell me, if just now I had strongly requested Liu Zhixing to fire you and if he hadn’t done so, he would have lost me and Fan Jie’s exclusive interview . What do you think he would have done?”
What would have he done?
Su Meimei froze .
Initially, she had been certain that Liu Zhixing wouldn’t have let her suffer . But after what had happened today, she suddenly felt that Liu Zhixing might actually fire her without any hesitation .
Qiao Lian caught the uncertainty in her eyes and sneered, “Su Meimei, as your chief editor, I order you to go apologize to Mo Ru right now!”
Right after that, she pushed away the dazed person and walked into her office .
Once she was sitting at her desk, she picked up her phone and realized that Shen Liangchuan had replied to her message: [Why?]
Qiao Lian stared at the screen nervously .
During this period of time, she had been getting along very well with Shen Liangchuan .
Shen Liangchuan did have feelings for her . So if she confessed, would Shen Liangchuan try to accept her?
She was the kind of person who took action . After some thought, she began typing again . However, she deleted what she had typed again . She kept typing and deleting over and over . She only managed to finish crafting one message five minutes later: [Why are you being so nice to me?]
Then, she pressed ‘send’ nervously .
Not long after the message was sent, she received a reply from him: [You are my wife . ]
She felt so happy that she could fly .
Did these words mean that he had acknowledged her presence?
Just when she was bathing in excitement, Xiao Ye walked in while holding a document . “Ms Qiao, the results for the health checkup that the company held a few days ago came out . This is yours . ”
Qiao Lian took the health checkup report and opened it right away . Her gaze was fixated on a line under the blood examination: Progesterone and estrogen levels are rather high . Re-examination is recommended .
