Xu Yanqing moved the phone away from his ear and closed his eyes. His eardrums were about to be shattered. "I was not careful."
"He hugged you accidentally?" It depends on whether Yu Zhi believes it or not. "I've never heard of someone hugging you accidentally."
Xu Yanqing had no intention of hiding anything from him, and knew that nothing could be hidden. "I meant that someone accidentally saw it."
At this time, Yu Zhi wanted to call an ambulance and take him to the hospital.
"If no one sees it, you still think it's okay, right?"
Xu Yanqing was the person involved. After all, Huo Xijing's hug really had no other meaning, it was just seeking comfort.
"I'm not afraid of anything unexpected. There are a lot of people staring at me recently. What if I get on the news or something."
"Then I will strangle the man named Huo to death."
Xu Yanqing had to be patient and comfort him, "Honey, don't be angry, I just gave him a weak hug."
"He just has bad intentions and is not a prank!"
Xu Yanqing nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes."
After finally calming him down, Xu Yanqing hung up the call.
She put her phone on the table and walked out.
Xu Yanqing came to the office area. Many of the workstations were empty. They had all gone out to run news. The colleague who broke into Huo Xijing's office earlier had his head lowered and a smile leaked from the corner of his mouth.
She suddenly raised her head and met Xu Yanqing's eyes.
The woman's smile subsided and she slowly stood up from the chair, "Editor Xu...are you okay?"
"May I have your name?"
The woman's face is a little dull. Is she so without a sense of existence? "Li Yuan."
"What kind of work do you usually do?" Xu Yanqing said and took a step forward. Her eyes were a little sharp and a little oppressive.
Li Yuan felt as if a huge mountain was pressing on him, and his breathing became slightly uncomfortable.
"I'm in charge of proofreading."
"Then you were looking for Mr. Huo just now. Is there anything wrong?"
Li Yuan didn't know where to put her palms. She held the edge of the table for a while, then put it behind her back. "I don't quite understand the press release. I would like to ask Mr. Huo for advice."
"Did you make a mistake? You are just a proofreader. If something is really wrong, you can't find it on Mr. Huo. Who is your superior?"
"She...she happened to go out for something."
"Can't you explain on the phone?" Xu Yanqing took another step forward. Several colleagues beside him were too nervous to speak out.
"Editor Xu, I was careless just now."
Xu Yanqing's sneer gradually reached the top of his brow, "I don't think you're careless. I have to knock on the door even when I enter Mr. Huo's office. You are awesome. You dare to just open the door."
"I...I was just too anxious at the time."
Xu Yanqing looked at Li Yuan's cell phone on the table and stopped being aggressive, "Pack your things and go to the finance department to settle the account."
"What do you mean?" Li Yuan was immediately confused, "Just because of this trivial matter, you fired me?"
"Yes." Xu Yanqing did not explain too much.
"I want to find Mr. Huo, what do you mean by this? I have to listen to you?"
The sarcasm on Xu Yanqing's face became clearer, "If you go to Mr. Huo to make trouble, I'm afraid he won't have anything nice to say to you."
When she returned to the office, she met Huang Ding. He took a cup of coffee in his hand and looked at several figures gathered together not far away.
"Are you really firing people?"
"Otherwise, can we still keep it until the Chinese New Year?"
Huang Ding leaned against the door of the office and whispered, "I'm afraid she will take revenge on you. What if she kicks you again at this time?"
"That's why I fired her. What happened today shouldn't be an accident. If she dares to throw dirty water on me, just in case, I will say that she is not good at her job and she holds a grudge after being fired by me. This reason can be justified."
Huang Ding gave a thumbs up, "High."
When she got off work, Xu Yan listened to the sound of rain outside the window. She took an umbrella when she went out.
Huang Ding waved to her and pointed to Huo Xijing's office. "The boss hasn't left yet, what should I do?"
"Thank you for your hard work, stay and send him back."
"It's me again!"
Xu Yanqing shrugged helplessly, "I want to avoid suspicion. When Mr. Huo gets over this hurdle, I will help you apply for a salary increase."
Huang Ding had the feeling that Xu Yanqing had sold him and he was still counting the money for her.
When she walked out of the company, she saw Yu Zhi's car.
He didn't say he was coming to pick her up, it was just a surprise attack.
Just as Xu Yanqing was about to open the umbrella, she saw Yu Zhi pushing open the car door and getting out. He walked quickly to her side and took the umbrella from her hand.
"Why are you here? I drove the car myself."
"I missed you, so I came."
Yu Zhi opened the umbrella, held it high with one hand, and held her shoulder with the other.
The two of them had just taken a few steps out when a figure suddenly rushed out. They might have been waiting outside for a while. Li Yuan's hair and clothes were a little wet.
"Editor Xu, you are really very capable. During the day, you are still chatting with Mr. Huo, but at night, you immediately change to another person?"
Yu Zhi couldn't help but tighten his hands, and the raindrops made a crackling sound on the umbrella.
He looked at Xu Yanqing in his arms, then at the woman opposite him, "Who is this?"
"Oh, the company just fired an employee today."
When Li Yuan heard this, she was even more annoyed, "That's because I broke the scandal between her and Mr. Huo! She was sitting on the boss's lap at the time, and our boss put his hands into her clothes..."
Yu Zhi's face turned cold. He lowered his hand holding the umbrella and waved the umbrella towards Li Yuan.
The woman's face was smeared with water, making her even more embarrassed.
"Are you here just to say these things?" Xu Yanqing shook his head in amusement, "Do you think others will believe you?"
Li Yuan wiped her face with her palms, "This is a fact. So many people in the office have seen it. Everyone knows what Mr. Huo thinks about you. What do you rely on to sit in the position of editor-in-chief, other than just touching him?
Do you enjoy the kiss?"
Yu Zhi stared at the woman in front of him expressionlessly, no one could guess what he was thinking.
Xu Yanqing put her arms behind his back and patted him, "Let's go."
"She slanders you so much, and you still want to let her go?"
"She has a mouth, so there's nothing we can do about it."
Jiang Huai came over with an umbrella and his eyes fell on Li Yuan.
Yu Zhi patted Xu Yanqing's shoulder lightly, "There is nothing in this world that cannot be solved. Her mouth is true. If it cannot be cut off, then sew it up."
He spoke lightly, but his words were full of venom, and Li Yuan subconsciously pursed her lips.
"Do you know who I am?" Yu Zhi asked her.
"I know... I know, Mr. Yu."
"Then do you know who she is?"
Li Yuan's teeth were trembling a little. Xu Yanqing had given out wedding candies in the office, so everyone knew it, "She is...Mrs. Yu. But she and Mr. Huo..."
"You slandered my wife so much, tell me, should you die?"
