Chapter 25 Is he single?
Qi Chenyan's tone was as cold as frost in February: "So, deliberately locking someone in the storage room, making the victim live in fear, and even affecting their career, is just a small matter for your station."
"What I have seen and heard today has truly broadened my horizons."
The chairman immediately felt a jolt of alarm and quickly stepped forward, pushing Ma Jiande, who was always looking for trouble, aside.
"What nonsense are you spouting? Get out of here!"
As he spoke, the chairman instantly switched to an apologetic smile: "Director Qi, please don't misunderstand. This was all Deputy Director Ma's opinion, and it has absolutely nothing to do with our Blue Sky TV!"
“What you said makes perfect sense. It’s the 21st century, and there are still people who dare to do such despicable things. They must be severely punished!”
The chairman adopted a righteous and indignant demeanor: "Call the police immediately! This matter must be thoroughly investigated. I, as the chairman, will be the first to disagree if we don't find out who did it!"
Power is truly a wonderful thing; it's not just a supplement, it's a powerful tonic.
No matter how much Yu Li said, it was not as effective as Qi Chenyan's sarcastic remark.
The chairman had spoken personally, and Ma Jiande and Qi Jianyue could only stand there with dark faces, powerless to stop him.
Before leaving, Qi Chenyan added, "Send two people to protect the crime scene until the police arrive."
Perhaps it was because Qi Jianyue felt guilty, but she always felt that Qi Chenyan's gaze seemed to pass over her when he said those words.
In other words, Qi Chenyan was fully aware that this matter was inextricably linked to Qi Jianyue.
However, he completely disregarded the uncle-nephew relationship and ordered people to protect the crime scene, giving Qi Jianyue no chance to clean up the scene, thus completely cutting off all her escape routes!
How could a younger brother-in-law be so heartless?
Qi Jianyue gritted her teeth in resentment.
The chairman readily agreed: "Director Qi is very thoughtful. You few can stay. Also, have the logistics department install the surveillance cameras in the next couple of days, just in case anything else goes wrong."
Qi Chenyan's gaze lingered on the chairman for two seconds. "Being able to learn from the lesson and make adjustments in time shows that today's incident was indeed just an exceptional accident at Blue Sky TV."
It was rare for the chairman to be praised by Qi Chenyan, so he breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his brow.
"Director Qi, you flatter me. What happened today was due to my poor management. I will definitely reflect on this seriously!"
After the crowd dispersed, Ma Jiande became anxious: "What should we do? If the police come, they will definitely be able to find clues. Look at the terrible idea you came up with."
"Not only did we fail to secure the interview, but I also got dragged into this mess. If this isn't handled properly, you won't be able to work at the station before I'm dismissed!"
Qi Jianyue was already feeling very frustrated. She had schemed and plotted so much, and she was just one step away from victory.
Moreover, Qi Chenyan clearly remembered her and knew that she had a niece.
But he still showed no regard for the Qi family's reputation, embarrassing her in front of everyone.
He would rather pause the recording and personally go to find Yu Li than have her become the host.
She didn't understand why, when she had the advantage in both appearance and family relationship, nothing worked when it came to Qi Chenyan.
In his eyes, it seemed that he could only see Yu Li.
In order to stand up for Yu Li, they even used verbal pressure to force the chairman to nod and call the police.
Doesn't Qi Chenyan know that if she is found out, she will not only lose face, but also bring shame to the Qi family?
He actually disregarded the Qi family's reputation for the sake of an outsider. What was he thinking?
"Don't worry, Brother De, this matter will absolutely not affect you or me. I have a way."
It seems we have no choice but to make a scapegoat.

After the minor hiccup, the recording went smoothly.
Interspersed throughout the event was an audience interaction segment.
Three lucky audience members will be randomly selected from the audience to ask Qi Chenyan a question.
The first two questions were quite normal. When it came to the last person, a young woman, she excitedly asked a question.
"Director Qi, I admire you very much. Ever since I saw your first speech, you have become my role model. My major in college was also journalism and communication, which was influenced by you."
Qi Chenyan politely replied, "Thank you."
"I know this question is a bit presumptuous, but Director Qi, you may not know this, but we have created a fan group for you online, and I am the only lucky one in the group who was selected to participate in the live interview."
Qi Chenyan was indeed unaware of this. He had only heard of celebrities having fans, but he never expected that someone like him would have fans, a group, and that the fans would even follow him to the event.
"Before I came, the ladies in the group held a poll, and the most popular question was—"
The woman was clearly both excited and nervous. "Are you currently single? If not, what are your criteria for choosing a partner?"
Yu Li didn't expect the audience to ask this question.
Before the recording, the audience members they selected were instructed not to ask about Qi Chenyan's family background during the Q&A session.
This girl is also very smart. This question is not about family background and is not against the rules. It is just a question about Qi Chenyan's personal feelings.
"The question raised by this audience member touches on personal feelings, and Director Qi can choose to answer it selectively."
Before Qi Chenyan could speak, Yu Li quickly tried to salvage the situation.
At the same time, she gave Qi Chenyan a look that since it was just a recording, he didn't have to answer the question if he didn't want to.
This question wouldn't normally be a problem, but Qi Chenyan is currently in a secret marriage, and his wife is sitting right in front of him, so of course he can't answer it truthfully.
Qi Chenyan smiled knowingly and said slowly, "I can't give a definite answer about personal matters, but I do have my own standards."
"Thank you for your concern, but I would be more pleased if you could focus your attention on national affairs."
As expected of a spokesperson, her linguistic skills are superb; with just a few words, she smoothly navigated this ambiguous and highly explosive question.
Although Qi Chenyan did not give a clear answer, the girl was already very satisfied.
The recording has wrapped up perfectly, and as long as the editing goes smoothly, it will air in prime time this Sunday.
Yu Li originally wanted to secretly ask Qi Chenyan what his plans were after the interview so she could treat him to a meal, since he had not only spent the whole day recording but had also saved her.
Regardless, you should be truly grateful to the other party.
But before she could even speak, the chairman intercepted her.
"Director Qi, our station has arranged a private room and ordered all the dishes. Please rest assured, this is for work purposes. Would you do me the honor of joining us?"
