You want me to leave?
No way!
It's okay if you don't come?
I'll write this down for you!
Wu Pin stood outside the door and sneered, thinking that he had already made enough notes for Jing Zhe today. If he made this many notes every day, it wouldn't be long before he was fired!
Hmph, one day you'll regret this!
Jing Zhe was unaware that Wu Pin outside the door had already reached a climax. After entering the room, he found it bustling with activity.
First, the printing department members were working overtime to print the articles already written by the current affairs department, while the members of the life and interview departments were discussing and writing down the content of today's interviews.
Seeing this, Jing Zhe was very pleased and clapped his hands, saying, "Everyone has been busy all day, and it's getting late. Let's all go home and continue tomorrow!"
"President Jing, we're not tired!"
The crowd said.
Then, Xiong San said to Jing Zhe, "President Jing, we've already spoken with the printing department. They only have the current affairs articles left to print. They'll work overtime tonight to finish printing all the current affairs articles. We'll also work overtime tonight to finish writing the articles, and then have Editor-in-Chief Chen revise them. If everything is fine, we can print them directly tomorrow!"
Because the other departments' articles had already been written and printed, even the current affairs department only had printing left, Xiong San felt a lot of pressure. He didn't want the life department to fall behind too much, so he was determined to work together tonight to finish the article.
Seeing their confidence, Jing Zhe said, "Everyone has worked hard these past few days, but your efforts will definitely pay off. The day the newspaper is published will be the day we repay you all! Do a good job. I'll go to a nearby restaurant and order a nice meal later. You can go and eat there as soon as you're done!"
"Thank you very much, President Jing!"
Everyone expressed their gratitude.
Jing Zhe didn't leave immediately. Instead, he helped the life department with the first draft, offering suggestions and advice. Once he saw that the outline was mostly in order, he handed over the work to Chen Jiannan and left the newspaper office.
Outside the door, Wu Pin still looked unconvinced, but he dared not slack off, especially when he saw Jing Zhe coming over, he stood up straight.
Having someone like this to watch the door isn't bad.
Jing Zhe patted him on the shoulder and said with satisfaction, "Not bad, it's good that you stay here from now on!"
After saying that, he turned and left.
Ha, a provocation tactic?
Do you think I'm a three-year-old?!
I'm not leaving, let's see what you can do to me!
Wu Pin spat and continued standing guard.
After a long while, Wu Pin finally breathed a sigh of relief when the newspaper office lights went out: "Damn it, can't we do the work tomorrow? What are you pretending for?"
Chen Jiannan led everyone out and said with a smile, "President Jing has already reserved a fine banquet for us, with plenty of strong liquor. Let's go eat now!"
Everyone was excited after hearing this, but someone still asked, "Editor-in-Chief Chen, this spirit isn't cheap. Is it unlimited?"
The others were also very curious. To put it bluntly, they wanted to know if they would have to pay out of their own pockets, since they had never encountered their boss treating them to a meal before.
"Of course it's President Jing's treat. Everyone, eat and drink to your heart's content. Don't you all know how generous President Jing is?"
The crowd roared with joy and left happily.
Is the person surnamed Jing treating us?
Where does the money come from?
Strong liquor costs a lot of money, I don't believe he's that generous!
Hmph, they must have used the newspaper's funds and everyone's money to hire him!
Wu Pin grew angrier the more he thought about it, and wrote it down in his little notebook.
Then, Wu Pin returned to the Wu family.
If it were before, he would go directly to Wuxian Garden, and then go to Fenfang Garden to find a girl to have fun with for a night, and would not go home at all.
But thanks to Jing Zhe, Wu Xian Yuan had already blacklisted him. He had just gone for a stroll, but before he even entered the gate, he was pushed and shoved out. He was furious.
He can't stay overnight at Fenfangyuan now either. Wu Xianyong forbade him to go to the newspaper office, and he hasn't been home all day. If he stays out overnight again, Wu Xianyong will find out about his trip to the newspaper office and beat him to death.
Therefore, Wu Pin decided to go home and report for duty first.
At this moment, the Wu family's gate was tightly closed, and Wu Pin was somewhat displeased upon seeing it:
Damn it, didn't you know I wasn't back yet? Locking me up so early, do you want to die?
So he banged on the door a few times.
Who is it?
"I!"
"oh."
There was a reply from inside, but the movement was slow, and it took a while before the door was pushed open with a creaking sound.
Wu Pin was already seething with anger at the newspaper office, and when he got home and encountered this incident, his anger flared up even more.
As soon as the door opened, he kicked the doorman who was pulling it open, cursing, "You blind fool, don't you know I'm not back yet? Who are you? Your dad!"
After finishing his rant, he turned and left.
The security guard who was beaten said: "Young man, you have no sportsmanship."
The security guard who wasn't beaten: Young man, you'd better watch yourself.
The two guards then exchanged a glance, shook their heads, and silently mourned for Wu Pin for a few seconds.
When Wu Pin arrived at the front hall of the Wu family, he found the room brightly lit. His grandfather Wu Xianyong, his uncle Wu Yong, his cousin Wu De, and his father Wu Mou were all sitting inside, their expressions serious.
Especially his father, with his long face, gave him a subtle wink after he entered the house. Knowing his father as he did, the meaning was something like: Run if you can…
So he asked in confusion, "What happened at home? Why are you all here?"
Wu Xianyong gave him a cold glance, then said to Wu De, who was sitting by the door, "Close the door."
With a creak, the door closed.
At this moment, Wu Mou sighed, lowered his head, and before lowering it, he gave Wu Pin a look that seemed to say... "Please accept my condolences."
Just as Wu Pin was surprised, Wu Xianyong shouted in a slightly distorted, high-pitched voice, "Beat him! Beat him hard!"
If it weren't for the fear of aggravating the wound in his groin, Wu Xianyong would definitely have done it himself; now he can only find someone else to do it for him.
Wu Mou couldn't bear to hit his own son, and Wu Yong couldn't very well hit his nephew in front of his younger brother, but Wu De had no such scruples.
You were laughing at me just a few days ago?
I'll beat you to death!
Wu De was extremely ruthless, relentlessly hammering Wu Pin. Wu Pin screamed in pain as he was being beaten, and finally managed to reach the door and flee.
After he escaped from the Wu family, he began to think about why he was beaten. Finally, he realized that his grandfather must have exposed his trip to the newspaper by some of his grandsons, which was why he beat him!
Hmph, wait till you find out I went to the newspaper office to tip off Grand Tutor Bai, then we'll see how surprised you are!
Grand Tutor Bai praised me yesterday!
Wu Pin thought smugly, forgetting even the pain in his body, and decided to go to the Grand Tutor's mansion again to expose all the dirt on him that had been written in his notebook to Bai Qingyuan, so that he would have more evidence and bring Jing Zhe down as soon as possible!
He's endured humiliation and hardship for too long; he doesn't want to go undercover anymore…
