Chapter 187  : Whose Face Are You Saving? (7)

At that moment, the managing editor walked over and clapped his hands, which caught everyone’s attention. “Good news! Mei Mei has achieved a feat for our news agency today! Fan Jie has agreed to do the exclusive interview with us.”

Glaring at Qiao Lian viciously, Su Meimei then raised her head cockily. She took two steps towards the managing editor. Then, the managing editor held her hands. “Mei Mei, you really are the lucky star of the news agency! Hahaha.”

Su Meimei’s eyes narrowed as she beamed. “Managing Editor, Fan Jie agreed to the interview because he was trying to save me some face. You should be well aware that our news agency is not big and I’m only an insignificant reporter. If I were to interview Fan Jie like this, wouldn’t he think that I’m unbefitting~”

Qiao Lian: …

Totally speechless. This was the first time she saw someone ask for a position so openly.

However, if Su Meimei hadn’t secured Fan Jie’s exclusive interview, the managing editor would have not even batted an eye. Indeed, the managing editor said immediately, “How are you an insignificant reporter? You are the chief editor of Team Two! Take a pick, who do you want to take from Team One? Or do you want to employ new talents?”

Initially, Qiao Lian had thought that she had nothing to do with this matter. However as soon as the managing editor finished speaking, she noticed Su Meimei’s meaningful glance at her.

She was on edge immediately. Next, she heard Su Meimei say, “I’ve worked with Qiao Lian for such a long time. Leave the others for later, transfer Qiao Lian to Team Two first.”

Qiao Lian: …

She knew it! This devil had been wanting to be her superior for a long time, hadn’t she?

Furrowing her brows, she heard the managing editor agree at once without even asking for her opinion.

But, would giving her opinion help?

Su Meimei immediately ordered, “Qiao Lian, pack your stuff and report to me!”

She had just been promoted to chief editor and she was already acting so cocky!

Qiao Lian secretly ranted in her heart and heaved a deep sigh.

In the span of one year, she had already completed nine months of work at the news agency. She just had to pull through three more months before she could attain the reporter’s certificate.

So… she would force herself to endure it!

She moved to the office specially prepared for Team Two with her stuff and desktop.

As she placed her desktop on the table, she noticed Su Meimei walking over. She stood in front of her arrogantly. “Get me a cup of coffee, with a bit of milk and three cubes of sugar. Thank you.”

Qiao Lian stopped arranging her stuff and looked up.

Her obstinate stare caught Su Meimei off guard and almost made her give in unknowingly. However, recalling the position she had now, she furrowed her brows. “What? Are you not willing? Don’t forget, I’m your superior now! You have to do whatever I tell you to do!”

Qiao Lian’s contrasting black and white eyes narrowed and her lips curled into a smile. “Sure.”

Without hesitation, she went out and poured a cup of coffee. Carrying the cup of coffee with both hands, she placed it on Su Meimei’s table.

Her compliant attitude caused Su Meimei to frown and examine the drink.

The drink was pitch-black. The scent of coffee wafted in the air, but… what if Qiao had Lian spat in it?

As she thought of this, Su Meimei frowned in disgust and pushed the coffee away.

That was exactly the reaction she wanted!

Acting as though she had not seen Su Meimei’s reaction, she returned to her seat and switched on her desktop, grinning from ear to ear.

The afternoon passed quickly. It was 5.30 p.m. when the phone vibrated all of a sudden.

She picked up her phone and realized Shen Liangchuan messaged her:

(What time do you end work?)

What did he mean by this question?

As she was figuring this out, she received another message: (I’m downstairs.)
