Chapter 22 Late Return 22
Lan Tian looked embarrassed. He walked over to Fu Yin and patted her shoulder. "Don't say such harsh words. How could I have known that you would encounter this?"
Fu Yin frowned, shifted his body to avoid, and his face suddenly darkened: "If I hadn't come back, would they have squeezed me out of the TV station?"
Lan Tian scoffed, then revealed his true colors when he realized he couldn't keep up the pretense: "I can't help it. Who told you to be disobedient?"
"If you had just followed me, why would I have arranged such a difficult outsourcing for you?"
But he didn't expect that Fu Yin was so lucky. Not only did he return safely, but he also actually solved the problem.
Now, not only are netizens praising her, but executives at the station are also planning to promote her.
"Really? So that's what Director Lan thinks. I'm so sorry. I recorded everything you just said."
"besides……"
Fu Yin cleared his throat, and two people rushed out from outside the door and started filming Lan Tian.
"It turns out the director of the financial channel is secretly sexually harassing employees. Turn your face around so everyone can see!"
Xia Xiaoman held up his cell phone and took several photos of Lan Tian. Several female employees were also taking photos behind him. They were all employees he had harassed before.
Fu Yin curled the corners of his lips slightly, picked up his phone and sent the recorded audio to the official mailbox of the TV station with one click.
"In less than half a day, everyone in the TV station will know what you did."
"You...you guys!" Lan Tian was so angry that his face turned green. He stared at Fu Yin with his eyes, and his finger trembled slightly as he pointed at her nose.
He quickly covered his face and reached out to grab Xia Xiaoman's phone, but she had already finished recording the video and put it away.
Lan Tian was so anxious that he jumped up and down, his face flushed red as he angrily scolded Fu Yin: "You ungrateful thing, how dare you report me?"
"If I had known, I would have dealt with you earlier. You want to make me lose my job, I will..."
The rage burning in Lan Tian's chest burst out, and as he spoke, he took two steps towards Fu Yin and was about to attack.
Fu Yin took two steps back reflexively, and when he saw the man's clenched fists, he couldn't help but frown.
Before he got close, Xu Muzhou quickly stepped in front of Fu Yin, grabbed her wrist, and reached out to push Lan Tian away: "If you hurt someone, it won't just be a matter of losing your job, you'll end up in jail for the rest of your life."
Lan Tian staggered and fell to the ground, his glasses falling to the ground. He crawled on the ground with both hands, searched for them in a hurry, and put them back on.
He slumped on the ground, despair flashing in his eyes.
"Fu Yin, are you okay?" Xu Muzhou lowered his eyes and asked her softly.
Fu Yin raised her eyelashes slightly and realized that the man's hand was still on her wrist. She quickly pulled it away: "I'm fine, thank you."
Within half a day, Lan Tian was suspended from his post. The investigation team set up by the station came down personally to take him away for accountability, and the position of channel director was also vacant.
Everyone in the office was discussing who would be the next director. Many people were optimistic about Fu Yin, and Xu Muzhou was the first to stand up and express his support.
"Has Muzhou really become Sister Fu Yin's flower protector?"
The people in the office were in an uproar, and the noise was getting louder and louder. Fu Yin coughed twice and said, "Stop gossiping. The traffic on the channel is not enough right now. I need to take an interview. Do you have any good candidates?"
Xia Xiaoman stood up excitedly, took out a magazine from the drawer, and pointed at the man in the magazine: "This, this! He's been very popular recently, and the whole network is paying attention to this dark horse boss."
Lin Xu in the magazine was calm and handsome, but her eyes darkened and her expression became a little duller.
Xu Muzhou snatched the magazine away with his slender knuckles, crossed his legs, and leaned his head back in his chair, turning around. "I don't think this guy is very good. Too hypocritical."
"Xu Muzhou, why do you always try to tear me down? He's Lin Xu, and he was trending three or four times in the past few days."
"No, it's trending again."
Xia Xiaoman took out her mobile phone and browsed the blog, and found that topics related to Lin Xu were once again on the hot search list.
But this time it's not a business matter, it's a personal matter.
Fu Yin's eyes moved slightly, and he unconsciously picked up his phone to check and found that it was the news that the Lin and Wen families had canceled their engagement.
She stroked the screen with her fingertips, looked down at the time on her watch, and found that it was almost nine o'clock.
"Xiao Man, organize some materials tomorrow and contact Xushi Venture Capital."
Fu Yin stood up and tidied up the things on the table, then turned his head to look at Xia Xiaoman and spoke.
"Muzhou, you adjust the equipment tomorrow. I'll go out and interview you after I finish compiling the interview transcript."
Xu Muzhou was still swaying in his chair, but he stood up instantly when he heard this, feeling inexplicably uncomfortable.
She still decided to interview Lin Xu.
For public or private reasons?
Fu Yin noticed something was wrong with his expression and said softly, "The channel needs popularity. If you don't seize the opportunity to attract people who are trending every other day, the traffic will be snatched away."
She curled the corners of her lips and seemed to be in a good mood.
She originally thought that Wen Shuyan had just said it casually that day, but she didn't expect it to be carried out so quickly.
Lin Xu should have been transferred back to Beijing, but she didn't want to ask him directly which hospital he was in.
Asking Jiang Qian seemed too direct, so she didn't ask.
Fu Yin walked out of the company. Jiang Qian's car stopped at the door and honked twice at her.
She turned her head and was a little surprised to find that it was Jiang Qian's car.
She walked forward in a few steps in high heels, opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat.
Jiang Qian took off her sunglasses, and a beautiful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Are you surprised?"
"Qianqian, you're back so soon?"
"Xu Nianbai insisted on accompanying Lin Xu back to Beijing, so we took the same flight back. I knew he was still a brother at heart."
"Lin Xu has been transferred to the Central Hospital. Xu Nianbai said he really wants to see you. Do you want to go and see him?"
"No, I'm tired and want to go home and rest."
She didn't believe that those were Lin Xu's words. It must have been Xu Nianbai who exaggerated them.
They are indeed a pair, they have the same approach.
Fu Yin snorted coldly, fastened his seat belt, folded his arms, closed his eyes, and leaned back in the chair.
Jiang Qian shook her head and chuckled, "Virtue."
"Forget it, that person will have to be left alone. I'll send you back, my eldest lady."
"Thanks, Bao. I'm so tired, I need to take a nap."
The car drove away from the TV station.
As May approaches, summer in Beijing is hotter than in previous years.
The evening breeze brought with it a sticky heat wave, which hit her face like it was burning.
Fu Yin was really tired. He had to take care of Lin Xu during these days while being busy with work, but he still had no conscience.
The car stopped in front of the rental house. The street lights in the alley that had been flickering had been repaired, and the light was brighter than before.
Fu Yin opened his eyes dazedly, looked out the window, and when he found they had arrived, he opened the door and tried to get out.
"Don't you want to consider moving to another house? I always feel that it's unsafe to live here."
"Let's wait another six months. I signed a three-year contract, and the deadline for paying the penalty hasn't come yet."
Fu Yin shook her head slightly. She felt bad about the money and hadn't moved away yet.
The income at the TV station was not high, not to mention that Beijing was a city with high consumption, so what she earned was barely enough to make ends meet.
She also had to send money back to the Lin family every month as a way of repaying their kindness.
Lin's father always told her not to send it, but she still deposited it on time every month. She was drawing a clear line.
Only after she has repaid the favors she has owed over the years can she be considered completely free from the Lin family.
"You're making me feel bad for you. Why don't you stay at my place?"
"Your home is too far from the TV station. It takes me an hour to commute."
"Okay, now that you know how you treat me, I'll go up first."
Fu Yin pushed open the car door and got out. The air was stuffy.
After greeting Jiang Qian, she stared at the car as it drove away before turning around.
When she saw that the street light in front of her had been repaired, she was stunned for a moment.
There are no people living nearby. This light has been broken for more than a year. How come it was suddenly repaired?
Fu Yin held the bag in her hand and walked upstairs in a few quick steps.
Walking up the stairs, she found that there were embedded night lights on both sides of the stairs, illuminating her way home.
Fu Yinding stopped and subconsciously turned his head to look behind him in a daze for a long time.
——
A week later, Fu Yin rushed out the press release and hit the save button when finalizing the final version.
"Sister Fu Yin, Xu Shi responded and said they are available for an interview."
"that is……"
Xia Xiaoman blinked and was a little dazed when she saw the interview location.
"The interview took place at the hospital."
Fu Yin hummed softly, his face calm: "Have you set a time?"
"Two o'clock in the afternoon, is that okay?" Xia Xiaoman's eyes flashed.
"Okay, Muzhou, get ready. Remember to prepare long shots as well, and pay attention to the sound quality."
She had noticed in the previous interview video that Xu Muzhou was still lacking in these two aspects, and after reminding him, he turned his attention back to the computer.
Xu Muzhou nodded, still adjusting the equipment.
The phone on the table vibrated twice.
It was a message from Lin Xu: [Yin Yin, will you come this afternoon?]
Fu Yin picked it up, glanced at it, and put it down.
There were many messages in front of it that Lin Xu had sent her these days, which were undoubtedly daily greetings and concerns, without mentioning what happened that day at all.
Do you really treat her as your sister?
She even refused to acknowledge him as her brother.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, when Fu Yin arrived at the hospital, he found that the outside of the hospital was already surrounded by people.
She couldn't help but frown: "What's going on?"
"Everyone heard that the president of Preface Venture Capital was stabbed in the nearby city, and they all came to get firsthand information."
"I saw that this hospital has a back door. We will go in through the back door in a moment."
"I think we are lucky. So many people want to interview Lin Xu, and that's why he chose our TV station."
Xia Xiaoman was complacent, thinking that he was lucky to get this interview opportunity. It was a great achievement. Even if he couldn't get a promotion, he would at least get a salary increase.
Fu Yin sighed helplessly and reminded: "It's almost time, get off the bus."
The few of them tried their best to avoid the reporters outside, entered the hospital through the back door, and walked quietly all the way to the ward.
Lin Xu was the only one in the ward, working on his computer.
Fu Yin knocked on the door lightly, put down the computer and looked out the door.
When his eyes met Fu Yin outside the glass window, his originally gloomy expression instantly brightened.
He hasn't seen her since they parted in Lin City. He has sent her many messages, but she hasn't replied to any of them.
If he wanted to know about her recent situation, he could only hear it from Xu Nianbai.
He even had the urge to remove all the needles on his body and go find her, but Xu Nianbai stopped him and hired a 24-hour guard to keep an eye on him.
Fu Yin pushed the door open and stared at his face for a long time. Seeing that his face was pale and he still looked like he would fall down in the wind, his eyes unconsciously turned red.
She pinched her fingers, trying hard to hold back her tears, and remained calm, pretending not to know him: "Hello, Mr. Lin, I am Fu Yin, a financial reporter from the TV station."
The author has something to say:

Small Theater:

Lin Xu: Yeah! My wife pays attention to me~
