"Sister-in-law, you know my sister has a rather explosive temper."
Shi Hang's lips and throat were getting dry from talking.
I need to ask Shi Xin to order me some milk tea later.
“My sister was angry and aggrieved, and couldn’t help but swear a few times. An undercover reporter took a picture of it and exaggerated the story, saying that my sister had a bad attitude and refused to cooperate.”
"With such a huge accusation being leveled against her, once this column airs on Friday night, my sister is going to be cyberbullied to the point of depression, and her hard-earned blogging career will be over!"
He Qinqin grew angrier as she listened: "This is too much! Just because of such a small problem, they're going to drive Xin Xin's shop to the brink of collapse."
—"Hey, sister-in-law, you've also experienced cyberbullying. You know these people see things in black and white, and they don't give people any tolerance or understanding at all."
"What should we do? We can't let them ruin Shi Xin's hard work."
He Qinqin frowned, pondering how to help Shi Xin.
“My brother used to work in the photography department of New Star TV, and he knows the password to the computer where the footage is stored and the cloud drive account.”
Shi Hang started offering advice to He Qinqin: "If you ask me, sister-in-law, you should just find an opportunity to delete the footage, so they won't have anything to broadcast!"
He Qinqin's eyes lit up when she heard Shi Hang's suggestion; it seemed feasible!
However, at this moment, Shi Yao shouted angrily: "Shi Hang, shut up!"
"If you don't discipline someone for three days, they'll start climbing on the roof and tearing off the tiles, huh!"
Shi Yanping also criticized Shi Hang: "Don't think that just because Qinqin is your sister-in-law and we are now family, you can bother her with everything."
"Qinqin was already exhausted enough staying with us. Look at what people online are saying about us."
“That’s right!” Li Bai chimed in, “We’re upright and honest, and our feelings for Qinqin are genuine. We don’t want to be the subject of gossip or be seen as vampires.”
"Qinqin, don't listen to his nonsense. Shixin can handle this herself. You've already been hospitalized twice, so stop worrying about these things."
He Qinqin was deeply moved when she heard that her family members were thinking of her best interests.
Shi Yao served He Qinqin some food: "Qinqin, you're pregnant, so don't worry about this. Think about the baby in your belly, and think about yourself too."
“You all treat me like family. How can I stand idly by when faced with such an infuriating situation?”
He Qinqin couldn't bear it.
“That’s a business that Xin Xin built with her heart and soul. How can I, as her sister-in-law, not help her?”
Shi Yanping had said almost everything and nudged her husband with her elbow.
Li Bai stepped in to lighten the mood: "Let's eat first, the food is getting cold."
"Today is Qinqin's big day, come, let me toast you!"
"Qinqin, you're not feeling well, so tea will do instead of wine."
The atmosphere in the private room became lively again, and although He Qinqin was smiling, she had something on her mind.
He Qinqin only took half a day off. After lunch, she returned to the company and lovingly touched the jade bracelet on her wrist. He Qinqin was somewhat depressed.
He Qinqin stood up and walked to the group leader's guild, asking, "Group leader, do you know which reporter is in charge of the Consumer Protection News section?"
The team leader pointed with his finger to the workstation in the corner of the office.
"Look. This 'Protect Consumers' section was planned by Fatty."
In the corner of the office sat a chubby young man wearing glasses. He was around twenty-four or twenty-five years old, similar in age to He Qinqin.
Fatty's real name is Li Changqing. Because he is a huge foodie and is fair-skinned and chubby, he is nicknamed Fatty.
He Qinqin knew this chubby boy; he had joined the company at the same time as her and had always worked very hard, but he was always a bit unlucky and couldn't keep up with the trends.
The team leader looked at the chubby guy in the corner, who was working hard on the keyboard and typing a manuscript, and sighed, "Fatty's performance evaluation this quarter is second to last, which is making him very anxious. His mother had surgery and was hospitalized, and the family is under a lot of financial pressure. Fatty really wants to keep this job."
"He had a brilliant idea in mind, and he planned this column all by himself. After the leaders read his proposal, they were full of praise for it."
"Now we're just waiting for the footage to be edited out so we can air it on Friday and see how it goes."
He Qinqin's heart skipped a beat when she heard that Pangpang's performance evaluation was second to last.
The last two performers in the quarterly assessment will be reassigned to other departments.
I'm currently third from last, which is extremely dangerous. And once the footage of Fatty airs, I could very well become second to last and get reassigned.
“Then I’m starting to feel a bit threatened.” He Qinqin smiled and looked in Pangpang’s direction: “Pangpang is a real foodie, even the column he wrote is related to food.”
The team leader and Fatty are dining buddies, and he knows Fatty better. He sighed, "To be honest, being able to eat is a blessing. With his palate, he can tell which takeout restaurants use pre-made meal kits and which dishes aren't fresh just by tasting them. So he really has an advantage in doing this column."
Does it have an advantage?
He Qinqin resisted the urge to roll her eyes. Was the advantage that drove away the restaurants that others had worked so hard to build?
A resolute glint flashed in He Qinqin's eyes as she returned to her workstation and sent a message to Shi Yao.
[Shi Yao, I want to help Xin Xin. Please tell me the password to the computer where the materials are stored and the password to your cloud storage account.]
Shi Yao on the other end quickly replied, still expressing his refusal and protective attitude towards He Qinqin.
No, I can't let you take that risk.
Although Xin Xin is my sister, you're my wife now, and my wife is the most important person in the world.
Upon seeing the message from Shi Yao, He Qinqin's face lit up with joy.
I absolutely have to help with this; otherwise, I won't be able to eat or sleep, and it will seriously affect my mood.
[You said your wife is the boss, so now I, in the name of Shi Yao's wife, order you to hand over the password right now!]
--【All right. 】
Shi Yao seemed reluctant, but he scrolled down to show her his account password and computer password. He then sent a long voice message instructing He Qinqin on how to completely delete the materials.
After familiarizing herself with the procedures and operations, He Qinqin's eyes darkened. She glanced around the office area.
Finally, He Qinqin focused her attention on a colleague who frequently interacted with the photography department.
"Fangfang, are you going to the photography department to deliver some documents?"
"Yes, what's wrong?"
"I need to go to the photography department to talk to the photographer on site. I can deliver it to you while I'm at it. If it's an inconvenient document, then forget it."
"It's nothing, it's just some notices and documents. Thank you for your help, Qinqin."
He Qinqin took the documents from Fangfang and then walked confidently toward the photography department on the 6th floor.
