Chapter 212 Talking Behind Your Back



Ni Sitian didn't bother to care what she was thinking and quickened her pace towards the office building, just in time for work.

Not long after, Ji Xiaoyun came over carrying a box, smiling at her as if nothing had happened: "Sitian, I've been transferred here too, so we can work together again."

Having witnessed that scene before, Ni Sitian had anticipated that Ji Xiaoyun would definitely bring it up. She didn't even bother to lift her eyes and continued working in front of the screen.

Ji Xiaoyun gritted her teeth, put her things down, and then went to the editor-in-chief's office to report.

She was inside for quite a while, and when she came out, her hair had been combed again and her lip gloss had been reapplied.

Ni Sitian glanced at her and immediately knew what might have happened in that office, which made her feel quite disgusted.

I really don't understand why some people can be so despicable as to sell their souls to get what they want.

"Sister Xiao, Editor-in-Chief Ma said that I will be learning from you from now on," Ji Xiaoyun said softly to Xiao Ya.

Xiao Ya glanced at the editor-in-chief's office, her eyes darkening, and said coldly to Ji Xiaoyun, "There are no extra desks here. I'll have someone arrange one for you this afternoon."

"Thank you, Sister Xiao. Sitian and I will squeeze in for now." Ji Xiaoyun seemed oblivious to her coldness and responded with a smile.

Xiao Ya ignored her and continued typing away at her keyboard.

Around ten o'clock, Ni Sitian couldn't help but take out her phone to check. She hadn't received a call from Xu Tingchuan, and she felt both disappointed and worried.

She specifically checked the webpage to see if the flight had landed, only to find that due to weather conditions, the plane was unable to land in Los Angeles and was diverted to New York Airport.

Seeing this, Ni Sitian became even more worried and uneasy, and got up to go to the bathroom.

He was locked in a small bathroom stall, trying to call Xu Tingchuan, but the phone kept ringing in the same monotone tone, and the call couldn't be connected.

Just as she was about to go out, she heard a voice outside mention her name, and her hand, which was about to open the door, froze.

"You and Ni Sitian were both in the teen magazine department. Do you know her background? I think she seems to be chauffeured around in luxury cars." The female colleague asked Ji Xiaoyun while touching up her makeup.

"I don't know either... The man who gave it to her seems to be quite old..." Ji Xiaoyun deliberately spoke ambiguously to mislead people.

"Could it be a sugar daddy/sugar baby arrangement?"

"Probably not..." Ji Xiaoyun said hesitantly.

These words sound like a defense of Ni Sitian, but in reality, they make people think the worst.

Ni Sitian couldn't take it anymore and opened the door, her gaze turning cold and sharp as she looked at the two gossiping people behind her.

The female colleague felt embarrassed and immediately left the restroom.

Ji Xiaoyun stood there, not embarrassed at all, and even smiled at her: "You heard everything?"

"What did I do to offend you?" Ni Sitian felt that her hostility towards her was somewhat inexplicable. When she was working downstairs, she deliberately hid her information, causing her to be scolded by her boss.

Later, she was subtly hostile towards her in various ways. They had only known each other for a month, so where did she get her grudge against her?

"I just hate how you flirt with other women and always act so high and mighty." Ji Xiaoyun glanced around and saw that there was no one else in the restroom, then dropped her smile and completely tore off the mask.

She was pursuing Qin Mubei, but Qin Mubei stopped paying attention to her after seeing that Ni Sitian was becoming distant from her.

On one occasion, she overheard Qin Mubei talking about her with Editor-in-Chief Li downstairs, implying that Editor-in-Chief Li should fire her.

If she hadn't hooked up with Editor-in-Chief Ma, she probably wouldn't even be standing in this office building now.

As for why Qin Mubei disliked her, apart from Ni Sitian stirring things up behind the scenes, she really couldn't think of any other reason.
