Chapter 122: The Boss is Waiting for You

Xiao Yin's eyes lit up, "Then what you just did..."

Wen Jin also saw things clearly: "Fu Yanjing's assistant sent me a message early this morning. I'm in charge of following up on this matter, and I have most of the information."

"Besides, offending Fatty Wang is better than having a dog that might bite at any moment, isn't it?"

Xiao Yin wholeheartedly agreed.

But when Wen Jin sat back down at her workstation, an unprecedented feeling of exhaustion washed over her.

Xiao Yin also noticed that Wen Jinye was acting differently lately. "Jinye, have you been working too hard lately? I feel like you look a little pale."

Wen Jin didn't say anything, but simply took off her work badge and placed it face down on her desk.

Her smooth fingertips traced the edges of the work badge.

She seemed genuinely tired.

I studied journalism in college and had been exposed to social journalism a lot, but I ended up in the finance industry by chance during my internship.

From the very beginning, she was out of place in this industry.

It was only through sheer willpower and perseverance that I've made it this far.

She worked hard, persevered, and continuously improved her professional skills, achieving many proud accomplishments.

But Wen Jin seems to have never loved this industry.

The constant need to wear a mask and engage in backstabbing and scheming keeps Wen Jin in a constant state of repression.

We are now close to reaching a certain critical value.

Lin Zhiying arrived at Henderson Tower dressed in her finest attire.

The receptionist asked in a businesslike manner, "Hello, do you have an appointment?"

Lin Zhiying, beaming, said, "Yes, I am a reporter from Mingjing."

The receptionist immediately understood. "You're Reporter Wen, right? Please wait a moment, I'll contact Assistant Dong right now."

Lin Zhiying's expression changed. She was about to deny it, but then she was afraid that something else might happen.

Anyway, the people in charge of the handover were from Henderson Land's marketing department, and they didn't know anyone named Wen Jinye.

As for Assistant Dong, he naturally has no right to designate a particular reporter.

So Lin Zhiying swallowed the words she was about to say.

The other party said something on the phone, and the receptionist replied in a sweet voice, "Okay."

After hanging up the phone, the receptionist politely directed Lin Zhiying. "Reporter Wen, please come with me. Our boss is currently in a meeting. I'll take you to the marketing manager to hand over the responsibilities."

Lin Zhiying breathed a sigh of relief, a determined glint in her eyes, "Thank you."

The marketing manager was a meticulous and serious middle-aged man. When he saw Lin Zhiying come in, he pushed up his glasses and did not give her any more kindness just because Assistant Dong had specially recommended her.

He was simply too serious, saying, "Mr. Wen, I've heard so much about you."

Lin Zhiying found the repeated refutations from reporter Wen extremely grating, yet she dared not refute them.

The marketing manager began explaining the product development philosophy, technology, and a series of other issues to Lin Zhiying.

Lin Zhiying was completely confused.

When the manager saw her bewildered and stunned expression, he frowned. "Weren't the materials given to you in advance? Why does Reporter Wen look like she's seeing this for the first time? Didn't you prepare beforehand?"

Lin Zhiying's lips trembled, "I..."

Her face was so pale she was almost crying. When Fatty Wang arranged for her to come, he didn't mention this at all!

Even Fatty Wang probably didn't know about this.

The only person who probably knows the truth is Wen Jinye.

Even the dim-witted Lin Zhiying realized something was wrong. No wonder she was so quick to agree in Fatty Wang's office; she had planned to set her up all along!

Seeing that she remained silent for a long time, the marketing manager ran out of patience. "I have nothing to say to irresponsible and unprofessional reporters like you. It seems that reporter Wen is not as bad as the rumors suggest."

As he spoke, he was about to tell them to leave.

Lin Zhiying wanted to try again, "Manager, please let me explain, I didn't know, it was my colleague who interfered—"

Her words were interrupted by a knock on the door.

As the marketing manager gave a deep "Come in," the door slowly opened, and Wen Jinye's figure came into Lin Zhiying's sight.

"Sorry, manager, I'm Wen Jinye. I'm late."

"What?"

Behind her was the receptionist, who looked flustered as she handed Wen Jinye's name tag to the marketing manager. "I'm sorry, manager, we've mistaken her for someone else. This is reporter Wen. As for her impersonating reporter Wen, we don't know anything about her background."

Without identification, it raises the issue of stealing trade secrets.

If Henderson Land really pursues the matter, even if Lin Zhiying explains herself later, her reputation in the industry will be ruined.

She clearly realized what was going to happen, and her face instantly turned panicked. "No, I'm a reporter from Mingjing too, I'm with reporter Wen! She was late, I thought she wasn't coming!"

The words were spoken in a grand and dignified manner.

Wen Jin also found the chat history, "According to my agreement with Assistant Dong, this time is just right."

so--

Lin Zhiying has clearly usurped the position.

Lin Zhiying couldn't care less. "Wen Jinye, you dare to use this as a pretext to set me up?" She was sweating profusely. "Please say something for me!"

Wen Jin simply smiled calmly, stating a fact in a nonchalant manner, "Lin Zhiying, if only you didn't behave so rudely."

Then none of this would have happened.

Wen Jin had no intention of plotting against Lin Zhiying; she simply knew Lin Zhiying too well.

So, it was all Lin Zhiying's doing that led her into this mess.

The marketing manager waved his hand and immediately called security, "Drag this woman out of here."

He then coldly added, "The rest will be determined by the police to see if this young lady's actions were legal and compliant."

Lin Zhiying gritted her teeth, "Wen Jinye, this is a disgrace to Mingjing. Director Wang will not let you off the hook."

"So, do you think he'll choose to save Mingjing's reputation or save you?"

She waited and saw.

The farce ended with Lin Zhiying being dragged away by security guards.

Although Wen Jin arrived as agreed, she still wasted the marketing manager's valuable time because of Lin Zhiying.

"I apologize for the trouble caused by our internal resource disputes."

Ultimately, it's the receptionist's fault for mistaking someone else.

Even if the manager was in a bad mood, he wouldn't take it out on Wen Jin. He waved his hand and asked, "Has Reporter Wen seen all the information?"

When it comes to work, Wen Jin also appeared capable and serious, replying, "Of course."

The remaining coordination process went very smoothly. Wen Jin also put forward some unique perspectives, and the interview outline he drafted was also very well-connected. It showcased the advantages of the new product and piqued the audience's interest in the core technology.

They talked for two hours straight.

By the time Wen Jin put away the recorder, dusk had already fallen outside the window.

After politely saying goodbye to the manager, Wen Jin walked out of the office and found that Assistant Dong was waiting outside.

"Reporter Wen."

Wen Jin was also somewhat surprised, "What are you doing here?"

His answer was ambiguous: "I'll take you away."

Wen Jin didn't think much of it, her mind still immersed in the brainstorming session she had just had, and followed Assistant Dong into the elevator.

The numbers on the LED screen jumped up and down.

When Wen Jin also looked up, she discovered that the elevator's operation was increasing rather than decreasing.

With a "ding," the elevator came to a stop.

The assistant gestured for him to enter. "Our boss had an international conference that just ended."
