After a blind date, she got married and was doted on by a wealthy man.

Chapter 31

Jiang Hao on the other end of the phone asked Qin Zhaozhao in confusion: "Why did you say that?"

"I'm just asking casually." Qin Zhaozhao asked in a gentle tone, "You paid to remove my hot search, right?"

"It's me." Jiang Hao said without hesitation, "Zhaozhao, you have to believe me, I will never lie to you."

Qin Zhaozhao thought about what Shen Sicheng said last night, and she pursed her lips: "Since you are the one who removed the hot search, just tell me how much it costs. I want to transfer it to you."

"Zhaozhao..." Jiang Hao said helplessly, "Don't be so estranged from me. I am willing to spend money for you."

When Qin Zhaozhao saw that Jiang Hao still refused to accept her money, she whispered: "I will give you the money when we meet some other time. I will go and do my work now."

Jiang Hao: "Okay."

As soon as Qin Zhaozhao entered the office, Zhang Shi walked in with documents.

With a smile on his face, his eyes squeezed into slits by the fat cheeks, he said: "Editor-in-Chief, this is the manuscript you asked me to prepare yesterday. After you read it, sign it, and I will publish it."

Qin Zhaozhao sat down and picked up the document. He saw at a glance that the manuscript was written by Zhu Li, and a sneer flashed under her lowered eyes.

Zhu Li is really a good brick. Zhang Shi can move it wherever he needs it.

After reading it, she signed and said, "Publish it."

Zhang Shi took the document and saw Qin Zhaozhao's signature. He rolled his eyes and asked, "Editor-in-Chief, don't blame me for talking too much. I just heard that Editor-in-Chief Li of the annual report has gone to Editor-in-Chief Bi to ask for an explanation. Editor-in-Chief, do you have any questions? There is no plagiarism. I think you should go see Editor-in-Chief Bi immediately to avoid the scandal of your plagiarism this time."

"Lost?" Qin Zhaozhao smiled, looking directly at Zhang Shi with half-smiling eyes, "Do you think Editor Li and I are working on a more serious manuscript? Can we still lose? No, or in your opinion, I It’s more like a game with Editor Li.”

Zhang Shi was stunned and said hurriedly: "I don't understand what you are talking about."

"You understand." Qin Zhaozhao looked at Zhang Shi calmly, "Because you are sure in your heart that I am the person who plagiarized the manuscript, otherwise you would not deliberately mention the word scandal to me."

Zhang Shi's face changed drastically, "Editor-in-chief, how could you misunderstand me? We are in the same department, and you are my boss, how could I miss you so much. In my heart, you will definitely not plagiarize manuscripts..."

He changed his tone and said helplessly: "But I said it's useless. The problem is that Editor-in-Chief Li published the manuscript before you. The evidence has been put on the surface. This is something everyone knows. Besides, you and Li Screenshots of the time when the editor-in-chief publishes the manuscript are all screenshots saved. This requires you, the editor-in-chief, to prove it yourself, otherwise I will believe you in the future. If other colleagues don't know the truth, it will be detrimental to you, the editor-in-chief."

Qin Zhaozhao chuckled.

Listen to Zhang Shi's words.

He first pretended to understand her, and then said that she was innocent, but he took out the screenshot of the manuscript posted online and told her tactfully that she had plagiarized the manuscript.

She is Zhang Shi's boss, but in Zhang Shi's heart, she has never been the editor-in-chief of the Shangying Department.

Zhang Shi wanted to drive her away and take the position of editor-in-chief, but he couldn't even think about it!
  "That's it..." She tapped her fingers on the table, "Editor Zhang is interested. But I don't plan to go to Editor Bi."

"Why?" Zhang Shi's eyes flashed and he pretended to be surprised, "You are my boss, and I only said a few words for your own good. Now that you are in this situation, you have to go see Chief Editor Bi as soon as possible. You can't let Li The editor-in-chief talked nonsense in front of Editor-in-Chief Bi."

He advised Qin Zhaozhao: "Editor-in-Chief, you must know that you were late for the first meeting, which made Editor-in-Chief Bi have a bad impression of you. Now that you have plagiarized manuscripts, Editor-in-Chief Bi is even more dissatisfied with you. Editor-in-Chief Li came to see Editor-in-Chief Bi. If you want an explanation, go over and coax Editor-in-Chief Bi into minimizing Editor-in-Chief Li’s punishment for you. It’s best if you keep this matter private with Editor-in-Chief Li.”

Qin Zhaozhao's smile remained the same, his eyes were extremely cold. "Editor Zhang, I think you are not making suggestions for me, but more like making me gain the reputation of plagiarizing manuscripts."

"Editor Qin..." Zhang Shi said with a frightened face, "How can you miss me so much? I have good intentions for you, so forget it if you don't appreciate it, but it's really too much to speculate on my thoughts like this."

"I'm not exaggerating at all, because that's what you think in your heart." Qin Zhaozhao said every word with sharpness, "You said it was for my own good, but instead of helping me find evidence to prove myself, you persuaded me to have an affair with Editor Li."

"The so-called privacy means that Editor Li came to propose conditions and I agreed to his conditions. In this case, I actually stole the manuscript. I felt guilty and could only obey Editor Li's words for the sake of reputation."

"Editor Zhang, you are such a smart person. After so many years in the workplace, wouldn't you know that if I had an affair with Editor Li, I would be committing theft? Don't tell me that you don't know. I don't believe it at all."

Zhang Shi's face turned blue and white, as if he didn't expect Qin Zhaozhao to reveal his thoughts so clearly.

"Editor Qin, you..."

"Get out." The smile on Qin Zhaozhao's face disappeared in an instant and was replaced by coldness. His eyes were full of sharp warning to Zhang Shi: "You are just my subordinate, what qualifications do you have to tell me about my affairs?"

Zhang Shi clenched his fat hands tightly, almost crushing the documents and papers in his hands. His big face was ashen, and his eyes stared at Qin Zhaozhao with suppressed anger.

He was so angry that his whole body began to tremble, but Qin Zhaozhao was his boss, and he was the most powerful person in the official hierarchy. No matter how angry he was, he could only speak with trembling lips.

"Yes, Editor Qin."

Qin Zhaozhao raised his chin slightly and stared at Zhang Shi with intimidation.

She watched Zhang Shi being driven out of the office like a lost dog, and the hostility around her slowly dissipated.

From the very beginning, it was impossible for her and Zhang Shi to coexist peacefully. This time, it was Zhang Shi who broke through the apparent peace between her and him, so she took advantage of the situation and made it clear, so she wouldn't have to compromise with him in the future.

However, Zhang Shi did give her a message.

Editor-in-chief Li of the annual report is now in Baguio Lian's office. She narrowed her eyes slightly and took out her mobile phone to dial Le Yu's number.

"I was in the morning meeting." Le Yu hurried into Qin Zhaozhao's office and said, "As soon as I saw you calling me, I immediately broke up the meeting and came to see you."

Qin Zhaozhao looked at Le Yu in surprise.

"I just asked you to come to see me. I didn't ask you to come to see me." She was helpless. "I am now a gossip celebrity in Ningshe. Your behavior will definitely be spread. You and I Scandal is a new wave of gossip."

Le Yu looked unconcerned, "Those who are clean will be clean themselves. You and I don't need to pay attention to these people. After all, mouths are on other people's faces, and we can't sew their mouths with needles to prevent them from speaking."

"Indeed." Qin Zhaozhao agreed with Le Yu's words, which was why he didn't need to explain on the first day when the scandal spread between her and him.

Leyu took a disposable cup and poured a glass of water and took a sip.

"Let's talk about things first." He asked Qin Zhaozhao, "What do you want to see me for?"

　Nabao, please remember to vote, collect, and leave messages, I love you.
