Chapter 75: Work Hard

d, so I have to explain. I'm not unwilling to go, but on Sunday I need to discuss some details about the design with Cheng Ruor.” 。This meeting is quite important as it directly relates to the succes...This meal passed in such a strange atmosphere.

Gu Yichen was in a bad mood, so after finishing his meal, he quickly left with Lin Xiaoru.

While Su Ke Xin obediently finished the bird's nest soup, she then left with Gu Chi.

Master Gu was in a very good mood and said he wanted to take a walk after dinner. He sent the two of them to the door.

Gu Chi's wheelchair rolled onto the car first. Su Keixin was about to follow, but suddenly, Old Master Gu grabbed her hand.

"Su, you did well yesterday," Old Master Gu said with a mysterious look. "But as someone who has been there and done that, I'll tell you, the odds of winning once are very low. So when you go back, remember to keep practicing hard."

Su Keqin was taken aback for a moment before she understood what Old Master Gu was talking about. Her face flushed red again at once.

Come on.

This grandfather, this grandson, how can their faces be so thick!

Su Kexin mumbled a couple of responses and hurried into the car.

The Gu family's dinner party finally went off without a hitch.

Over the next few days, the deadline for printing the new issue of Su Ke Xin's magazine was approaching, and the entire magazine company was busy.

Even Gu Yichen didn't have time to make things difficult for Su Ke Xin, he was just busy with the magazine.

Since the last cooperation with Q city failed, their magazine's finances had been struggling and they were facing the biggest crisis since its founding. Fortunately, a second interview with Gu Chi was conducted in time, achieving new sales highs and barely pulling them through.

But after all, the funding gap is there. Gu Chi could save them once, but he couldn't save them twice. This issue of the magazine, everyone started to worry again about what kind of articles to write.

This time, Qiu Yue was very proactive. She personally went to interview an unqualified food processing plant and used a vacuum camera to capture many unknown insider information.

Recently, food safety issues have been a major concern in China. Everyone agrees that this topic is highly sensational, so they all worked together late into the night to try and shut down this substandard factory once and for all.

Su KeXin, as a member of the magazine company, though not in charge of this report, also worked overtime.

That night at twelve o'clock, Su Kexin was still typesetting in the office. Qiu Yue suddenly swaggered over and threw a file on her desk. "Su Kexin, this is my record of the workers from this factory. Many of them don't have relevant technical licenses. Count them up for me."

Su Keqin was already swamped with formatting, and suddenly seeing this, she couldn't help but frown. "Qiu Yue, I'm a little pressed for time. Could you calculate it yourself"

“What did you say” Qiu Yue stared at him as if he had told a joke, “Do you know how busy I am! You have to know that I’m doing this interview all by myself! I’m already swamped just organizing the interview transcripts, and now you want me to also deal with this mess”

Su Kexin frowned, "But I'm swamped here too. Maybe you—"

Before she could finish her words, Qiu Yue impatiently interrupted her, "Su Kexin, I know you have connections, but do you need to be so arrogant Do you think because the editor-in-chief supports you, you can just eat white rice at the magazine"

Zheng Yue's voice was very sharp, and she deliberately raised her pitch when she spoke. Immediately, everyone at the magazine office turned to look at her.

Su Ke Xin's face also turned cold.

She took a deep breath and calmly took the file Qiu Yue had handed her, saying softly, "Okay, I'll help you organize it."

Qiu Yue's face showed a hint of smugness, just about to brag a couple of words, but Su Ke Xin once again spoke slowly and unhurriedly.

"However, please don't think you've done the magazine a favor just because you conducted an interview. After all, this is your first time taking responsibility for a piece after two years at the magazine."

Su Keqin's words were harsh, but also true.

She and Qiu Yue joined the magazine together, but while she was able to handle individual assignments on her own a year ago, Qiu Yue had only been doing proofreading and other miscellaneous tasks.

"You..." Qiu Yue didn't expect Su Ke Xin to suddenly fight back, her face turned pale. Hearing the amused laughter from the people around, she couldn't bear it, gritted her teeth, and left angrily.

As soon as Qiu Yue left, Xiao Mei quickly slid her chair over and gave Su Kexin a thumbs-up. "Kexin sister, that was awesome! I've been so annoyed by Zheng Yue these past few days. All he did was conduct an interview and his tail is almost wagging up to the sky."

Su Kexin smiled noncommittally, only starting to process the documents Qiu Yue had given her.

She couldn't help but frown at this treatment.

This factory is really unscrupulous. They hire mostly people from rural areas who don't know anything, treating them just like tools for labor.

She hesitated for a moment before asking, "What will happen to these workers if we expose this factory"

"They're all out of jobs, aren't they" Xiaomei shrugged. "I was in charge of investigating the factory's financial situation. They recently took on a lot of big orders, and their cash flow isn't keeping up. It seems like they haven't paid wages for a long time. If we expose them, I estimate that all these orders will go down the drain, and the workers won't get their wages either."

Su Kexin heard some things that made her feel uneasy. But she also knew that allowing food produced by such unscrupulous factories to circulate on the market would be irresponsible to consumers, so she couldn't say much. She could only continue organizing the data.

Around 11:00 p.m., Su Kexin felt her stomach start to cramp.

She couldn't help but rub her stomach, frowning.

Her stomach is not good, even if she's just a little hungry, it will hurt. Today, in order to work overtime, dinner was just a few crackers. Now, she really can't hold on anymore.

But this store downstairs closed too, she had no choice but to walk to the tea room and see what was in the refrigerator.

But unfortunately, too many people were working overtime today, and the snacks in the refrigerator had already been eaten by others. Su Kexin could only heat up some milk to warm her stomach.

She was sipping her milk in small, delicate mouthfuls when she suddenly heard footsteps behind her.

She turned her head and saw the last person she wanted to see.

Please remember me, Gu Yichen.

Gu Yichan held a lunchbox in his hand, apparently heated in the microwave in the tea room. Unexpectedly, he ran into Su Kexin and was stunned for a moment.

Su Kexin's face turned cold in an instant, and she turned to leave, but Gu Yichen called her back.

"Su Keixin!"

Su Kexin's steps didn't stop at all, she continued to walk outwards, but suddenly someone grabbed her wrist. She was forced to stop and turn around, and she saw Gu Yichan's face filled with anger.

"Su Ke Xin." Gu Yihan's face darkened slightly. "I'm calling you, didn't you hear me"this woman. 。“What are you trying to do by tricking me here! Where is Xiaomei” “How should I know where that annoying person like you is To be honest with you, I didn’t hear any cries for help. The r...
