Si Jiuyin transmigrated into a bizarre drama, becoming the villainous adoptive mother of a love-brained female lead. In the eyes of the audience, this was entirely a story where the ungrateful adop...

Chapter 74 Zhao Jiao is not here

He Qinqin's aggrieved and self-blaming attitude was impeccable, and she promised to make amends immediately, leaving Zhao Jiao with no choice but to say, "Alright, then hurry up and bring it over. Don't forget anything this time."

7th floor of Lexiang Group Building.

As soon as Zhao Jiao and Li Han arrived at Lexiang Group, they went upstairs immediately to prepare, not wanting to waste a single second.

In the product department's reception room, Li Han was adjusting camera positions with the photographer.

She and Zhao Jiao divided the work this time. Zhao Jiao was responsible for on-camera interviews, while she was responsible for writing the layout reports and planning.

When Li Han heard that they were coming to interview Lexiang Group, and that they might even interview Pei Zhaoan, she felt a little flustered.

In her last blind date, which garnered widespread attention online, she exchanged contact information with everyone except Pei Zhaoan.

It wasn't that she was deliberately targeting Pei Zhaoan. It was just that the wind was too strong on the deck that night, and Li Han was nervous.

When it was time to add Pei Zhaoan's contact information, Li Han accidentally dropped her phone on the ground while going through the process. Not used to wearing high heels, she accidentally kicked it, and the phone fell into the gap of the panel.

Li Han tried to pry her way out of the ground for a long time but couldn't. Even though she was in the community, she felt so embarrassed that she wanted to jump into the sea. And with everyone else coming to help her, she felt even more awkward!

As netizens watched Li Han hunched over the splint, frantically trying to pry open her phone, they were so anxious they wished they could crawl out of the screen and flip the splint over with their bare hands.

The most popular blind date among netizens, Li Han, couldn't even get his contact information!

This incredibly rare and frustrating event occurred, and Li Han felt that Pei Zhaoan must think she did it on purpose, that she didn't want to have any contact with him.

So after Li Han's phone fell into the clamp, Pei Zhaoan said he had company business to attend to and left.

That sounds like an excuse.

Li Han prayed in her heart that she would not run into Pei Zhaoan today. After all, she worked behind the scenes, so she would avoid him if she could.

So today, Li Han dressed very casually, in a gray business suit, wearing a black mask, and holding a lighting board for the financial channel photographer.

If it weren't for the live broadcast camera from "City of Light" pointing at her, netizens would have thought she was a staff member who had come along.

Seeing Li Han's low-key and unassuming demeanor, netizens were furious.

[Li Han, cheer up! Add the contact information you missed on the cruise last time, this time be sure! It's a blessing in disguise!!!]

[Take off that tattered mask that's hiding your beauty! What if Pei Zhaoan doesn't recognize you?]

[Well, maybe Pei Zhaoan just doesn't like Li Han. He can always get her contact information if he wants. Pei Zhaoan might even be resentful that Li Han embarrassed him in front of his European clients.]

Netizens really love to pair people up randomly; they'll ship anything. Pei Zhaoan probably doesn't even take Li Han seriously; she's just a goddaughter to him.

[You guys can ship the Bai Zhou CP, so why can't we ship Li Han and Pei Zhao'an? They're so much fun! Wasn't the fireworks on the deck enough for us to enjoy?]

[Speaking of which, He Qinqin will also be coming to deliver something. Could she be up to something shady? Like, stealing Li Han's interview?]

He Qinqin arrived very quickly.

Zhao Jiao was preparing coffee. The product department staff were all busy, so she had to prepare it herself.

Just then, Zhuang Meng, the product manager and the subject of this interview, arrived with He Qinqin. The two were chatting and laughing about interesting things that happened in college.

Upon seeing Zhao Jiao, He Qinqin quickly handed the recorder to her and then apologized profusely, saying, "Little Zhao, I'm so sorry, I'm really sorry for almost delaying your important matter."

After saying that, she handed over the bag in her hand: "This is the afternoon tea I bought, as an apology to you."

Zhao Jiao saw that the bag He Qinqin handed her contained a limited-edition signature cake from a high-end dessert shop. She had often seen He Qinqin eating this cake in the office and had been craving it for a long time, so she took it without hesitation.

He Qinqin smiled and held Zhao Jiao's hand: "I noticed you didn't eat much lunch today because you were preparing your manuscript."

Zhuang Meng admires Zhao Jiao's hard work: "There's still some time, so hurry up and eat a few bites so you can be in better shape for the interview later."

"Later we will not only hold interviews at the rest market, but also visit our various departments to showcase the advantages of our food delivery business to the public."

Seeing how gentle and easygoing the interviewee was, Zhao Jiao nodded gratefully and took the cake to the break room.

She was afraid that eating in the lounge would make a mess.

Zhuang Meng turned her gaze to Li Han, who was holding a reflector, and smiled as she shook hands with her fellow villager: "Hello, I'm Zhuang Meng, the product manager. You must be Li Han."

"Hello, nice to meet you. I hope you enjoy the interview later."

Zhuang Meng also watches the show "City of Light". Her favorite character is Li Han. Although she was initially prejudiced against Li Han, Li Han's performance on the show won her over.

Just then, a man's figure passed by the lounge and then peeked in to take a look.

The man, around 40 years old, was Zhuang Meng's boss, Manager Xu. When he saw Zhuang Meng preparing for an interview, he immediately frowned and reprimanded her mercilessly in front of the reporters and photographers of New Star TV: "What kind of interview can a mere product manager like you do?"

"Instead of spending so much time on interviews, we should focus on advancing the projects."

"Stop thinking about becoming famous by appearing on TV and in the newspapers all the time. Do you think you look like a female celebrity?"

After giving Zhuang Meng a long lecture, Supervisor Xu finally left satisfied, feeling that his leadership position had been fully demonstrated.

"Don't listen to what he says, he just doesn't like that you're willing to give an exclusive interview," Li Han comforted him.

"Yes, senior, you are so outstanding, you have always been my role model."

He Qinqin continued Li Han's words, "Everyone laughs at our school as an overseas 'water school,' but your performance has slapped them in the face."

After being comforted by the two girls and treated this way by Manager Xu, Zhuang Meng's emotions were quickly calmed down.

Zhuang Meng straightened her clothes: "It's time, let's begin the interview."

Li Han looked around and said, "Hey, Zhao Jiao is eating that little cake. Why hasn't she come back yet after eating for so long?"

Zhuang Meng looked troubled upon hearing this: "What should we do? I had planned the opening and visiting times. When we arrived at the logistics exhibition hall, it would coincide with the time when President Pei was inspecting the area, so you would be able to interview President Pei then."

“Let’s start now, since we have two people now anyway,” He Qinqin said decisively.
