Chapter 272 Your Grandfather Must Teach You a Good Teach Today
After confirming it, Gu Qingshi was really a little annoyed, but since Lu Yuan was his savior, he had no choice but to accept it.
On the other side, reporter Ding and Meng Weiwei were reading newspapers in a newly opened coffee shop in GA City. "Sister Weiwei, you are right to remind us that the market for precious medicinal materials is indeed in chaos. Do you think my report is okay?"
"Okay, you can report it in depth next. I don't want such a black sheep to make money from these. You don't know that my grandfather was also a victim. He spent 10,000 yuan to buy the so-called 100-year-old ginseng. I really..."
Reporter Ding was shocked. "Ten thousand? Is it so dark? Sister Weiwei, can I interview your grandfather?"
"My grandfather can't do that. You can find other victims yourself, or follow up and report on the victims found by our provincial TV station. The culprit has also been found, so you can just follow the report when the time comes."
Reporter Ding also has his own news network. After hearing this, he asked hesitantly, "Sister Weiwei, is the culprit you are talking about surnamed Gu?"
Meng Weiwei glanced at him and said, "It should be."
Reporter Ding showed a strange expression and smiled. "Sister Weiwei, I don't think it's necessary. You are the daughter-in-law that Mrs. Lu likes. You don't need to care about her so much."
Those who can be reporters are smart and not stupid. Reporter Ding had inquired about it before. This time, Meng Weiwei wanted to deal with someone because of Lu Yuan. He didn't expect that the person he met at that time was Gu Qingshi, the rumored Lu Yuan's woman.
After reporter Ding knew Gu Qingshi's identity, he didn't want to get involved with her. Seeing Meng Weiwei frowning, he hurriedly explained, "Sister Weiwei, I don't mean anything else, it's just that this person doesn't seem to be very active."
Meng Wei smiled and said, "Why are you so quiet? As a reporter, are you so afraid of the strong and bully the weak?"
"It's not that she's a bully, it's mainly because I learned a little bit before that anyone who dares to go against her doesn't end well. She's ruthless enough, and she has someone protecting her."
Reporter Ding and Meng Weiwei both knew who this person was.
"What are you afraid of with me here?" Meng Weiwei asked back, with a flash of coldness in her eyes. This is why she wants to deal with Gu Qingshi. Reporter Ding, who had praised her so much before, would be afraid of Gu Qingshi after knowing him.
This was a slap in her face. She and Lu Yuan had been on the news and even received Zhuo Yao's approval. Although she was cautious and didn't say much, only saying that they were friends, her colleagues at the TV station all assumed that she and Lu Yuan were a couple.
Therefore, there were many colleagues who were jealous of her, and they often spoke sourly about Gu Qingshi in front of her on purpose. This was something she could not tolerate. Gu Qingshi's existence was a slap in her face.
With all the new and old grudges added together, she had to deal with Gu Qingshi.
Even if Lu Yuan knew, she would not be afraid. Anyway, she did not do it herself, and she did not frame anyone. It was Gu Qingshi who was greedy and cheated people out of their money by saying that she had sold hundred-year-old ginseng. She deserved it all. Could Lu Yuan really deal with her for Gu Qingshi?
Meng Weiwei was nonchalant and confident. Her confidence gave reporter Ding confidence as well. "Yeah, I'll go back and make preparations."
"Hmm." Meng Weiwei took a sip of coffee elegantly. She couldn't help frowning because it tasted too bitter, but she didn't add sugar either, because it was more professional to drink coffee without milk or sugar.
But in the end, Meng Weiwei did not finish the cup of bitter coffee because it was too bitter. Although her mouth felt bitter, she was in a good mood when she thought that Gu Qingshi would be in trouble and embarrassed and become the target of public criticism at the latest tomorrow.
She was in a good mood until she got home. As soon as she got home, she saw her grandfather, who was usually very friendly to her, with a serious face. "Weiwei, is it because of you that your TV station's evening news has news about precious medicinal herbs? Did you make a special report because I bought ginseng?"
Meng Weiwei did not deny it, "Grandpa, I don't want there to be more victims."
"Victim? I said I was not victimized. I knew that it was a rare and good ginseng, so I bought it specially. I didn't feel I was at a loss at all. I even felt I made a profit. Weiwei, I know you hate and don't believe in Chinese medicine because of your childhood, but can you also respect me a little? Do you think I look old and confused?"
Meng Weiwei’s grandfather’s surname is Meng, and he happened to be the old man Meng who was the first one to buy ginseng from Gu Qingshi.
At this moment, Mr. Meng looked at Meng Weiwei and slammed the table angrily.
"Grandpa, you know I didn't mean that, and I wasn't the one who did the report." Meng Weiwei didn't expect Old Meng to react so strongly. She felt a little unhappy. She didn't know why her grandfather would trust Gu Qingshi, whom he had only met once, and believe in that damn hundred-year-old ginseng.
"Okay, you don't need to explain. I know whether it's you or not. From now on, I only want you to do these things for money. Discuss it with me first, and stop it as soon as possible before things get out of hand."
"Grandpa, you can't just stop the news reporting." Meng Weiwei also said directly with a cold face.
"You don't have to stop, but then you can forget about transferring to the Imperial Capital TV Station."
"What does this have to do with my transfer to the imperial capital?" Meng Weiwei didn't expect that he would suddenly talk about her transfer to the imperial capital.
"Why is it okay? I just gave the ginseng away so that you can be transferred to the imperial capital."
Meng Weiwei was shocked, "What, you gave the ginseng away?"
"Yes, I originally wanted to keep it as a family heirloom, just in case it could save my life in the future. But I just happened to hear that Mr. Zheng's mother was sick and unconscious at the main TV station, so I thought of helping out and did everything I could to send it over."
"I gave him ginseng and said it was a good thing, but then you exposed it as a fake scam. Would you be happy if a good gift turned out to be fake? I gave it sincerely hoping it would save his life, but because of your report, the ginseng I gave him turned out to be fake! Moreover, Mr. Zheng specifically said that I could not accept the gift and sent me money back."
"Doesn't this mean that I deliberately sold fake goods to Mr. Zheng?"
Old Mr. Meng never expected that he had worked so hard and put so much thought into making his granddaughter's career go more smoothly, but in the end she came to sabotage him.
Meng Weiwei didn't expect that Mr. Meng would actually give the ginseng away, and it was for her. She suddenly felt like he was shooting himself in the foot.
Apart from this, there were some things she couldn't accept. Grandpa was naturally doing this for her own good, but she couldn't accept the reality that she had to be transferred to the imperial capital because of Gu Qingshi's things. That was so ridiculous. She didn't believe that Gu Qingshi could come up with any real good things.
"Grandpa, are you saying that I'm being transferred to the capital because of the gift you gave me? Isn't it because of my ability? The TV station said before that it wanted to bring in outstanding talents, and I fully meet the criteria."
"Yes, you meet the criteria, but that ginseng is really good. Under such circumstances, do you think we can still introduce "excellent talents" like you who reported blindly or with your eyes closed?"
Mr. Meng said very bluntly, "I have said everything I need to say. If you insist on doing it your own way, you will have to bear the consequences yourself."
