He subconsciously remembered his video call and excitedly pressed the answer button.
"Hey, Assistant Ma, has my video gone viral?"
"No, it's Mr. Wang who's looking for you."
"ah?"
"It's all because of that video of yours. Anyway, be prepared. You were too hasty. You didn't do any preparation beforehand and just released it without thinking."
Look at him, he's talking like a completely different person from last night.
Wu Le was utterly speechless.
"No, it's because you said last night that it would go viral that I posted it!"
"Don't try to pin this on me. I did tell you, but I didn't tell you to post it overnight. Besides, did I tell you to post it? You just wanted to become famous!"
Ma Long's words completely absolved him of any responsibility.
Although Wu Le felt wronged, there was nothing he could do now that things had already gone wrong.
Even if she was very angry, she could only talk to Ma Long in a gentle and patient manner to see if there was any way to salvage the situation.
Her voice was muffled. "Then what do you suggest we do now?"
Ma Long glanced towards the company gate.
"I have an idea for you. When you see President Wang later, just insist that what you said is true. As for why you did it, just say that Xiao Ran bullied you and did something dishonest, so that's why you said it."
"ah?"
Wu Le's pupils widened suddenly in surprise.
Isn't this utter nonsense? He doesn't even know who Xiao Ran is!
If they find out and come knocking on our door, wouldn't that be like slapping ourselves in the face?
Although I'm a gossip streamer, the things I say are mostly true to some extent; I really wouldn't dare to make things up.
“If you don’t say it this way, how will you explain it to President Wang? Only by saying it this way will President Wang think that there is a reason for your actions and not hold you responsible. Otherwise, if he deducts your salary or something, you can think about it yourself.”
"You know, I'm the person in the whole company who knows Mr. Wang best. If you still won't listen to me, then I really don't have any other options."
Ma Long pretended to be earnest and well-intentioned.
Upon hearing this, Wu Le hesitated again.
What Ma Long said was actually correct; he was indeed the person in the entire company who understood President Wang the most.
Besides, if this matter could really be resolved like this, then telling a little lie wouldn't be a big deal.
After all, this kind of thing can affect a girl's reputation, so Mr. Wang probably won't say much, right?
Yes, that's settled!
Having made up her mind, Wu Le hurriedly got out of bed, not even bothering to put on makeup. She washed her face, grabbed her fake LV bag, and headed to the company.
Ma Long had already arrived at Wang Jianfeng's office.
She was standing in front of the desk, explaining to Wang Jianfeng and Yan Li with an innocent look on her face.
"Mr. Wang, I really didn't know about this. I only heard it from you."
He really didn't expect Yan Li to come all the way here in person for something like this.
This is a problem that could be solved with just a phone call, but it seems like you're taking it quite seriously!
Upon hearing this, Wang Jianfeng gave Yan Li an apologetic smile.
"Look, this is just a misunderstanding. Besides, you're in this industry too. It's so competitive these days, it's actually quite normal for these small streamers to do some unexpected things to gain traffic, isn't it?"
Yan Li wasn't buying it.
She raised an eyebrow and glanced sideways at Ma Long.
"I'm not saying this to be mean, but Assistant Ma is really late for work. My assistant has already brewed my tea before I even get to the office every day."
Ma Long knew Yan Li was going to make things difficult for him, so he wasn't surprised at all.
"I usually arrive quite early, but I didn't sleep well last night, so I arrived a little later than Mr. Wang. However, Mr. Yan is right; it was indeed my fault."
"Young people should go to bed early. Drinking alcohol damages the liver, and indulging in lust damages the kidneys."
Upon hearing this, Ma Long felt a tightness in his chest.
How did she know she went drinking last night?
Could it be that Xiao Ran has already told her?
That can't be right. I haven't even paid him yet. If he finds out that he told Yan Li about this, isn't he afraid that I won't give him a million?
"How did you know I went drinking last night?" Although it was said in a joking tone, my heart was actually in my throat.
Yan Li smiled meaningfully, "Assistant Ma is so young and doesn't have a girlfriend. If he doesn't go out drinking, he can't just stay home watching TV, can he?"
Her purpose in coming today was simple and clear: it was about the video.
As for work, she wasn't in a hurry at all.
The more they try to make me turn against them, the more stubbornly I refuse to do so.
This project has been built up to this point with all my hard work. It's Wang Jianfeng who should be fired, not me.
However, this matter cannot be rushed. Only if she is not in a hurry can she make them anxious. She wants to see what other tricks they can come up with!
These words left Ma Long completely baffled. He felt as if she knew something, yet also seemed to know nothing at all.
For a moment, I really didn't know what to say or do. I felt a bit helpless, so I could only smile and say, "President Yan is really amazing. She guesses more accurately than anyone else."
Yan Li feigned a sigh.
"You can't say that, after all, people's hearts are hard to fathom."
After this whole set of sarcastic remarks, not only Ma Long, but even Wang Jianfeng couldn't help but start to have doubts.
