Chapter 439: Chapter 439 As a Married Man, Don’t Meddle in Other’s Business (Second Update)
Milky Way.
Yin Qin walked into the office.
Wu Meili had already prepared coffee for him.
Yin Qin looked at the overt fatigue on Wu Meili’s face despite makeup, he chuckled, “Still hungover?”
“I’ve sobered up, but my stomach’s still bothering me.” Wu Meili didn’t hide it, her expression was one of complaint.
“Then you’ll have to bear with it.” Yin Qin stated matter-of-factly.
Wu Meili pouted.
He had no sympathy for her suffering.
“At 11 a.m., there’s a project team meeting. Roll will be called to see who’s missing. Anyone absent will have a 500 yuan deduction from this month’s salary.”
Conniving capitalist.
Wu Meili left.
“By the way, how long does it generally take for the ratings to come out?” Yin Qin asked.
“Usually three to five days. It requires a ratings report from an authoritative agency. This is the officially recognized data in Yanshang Country, nothing else counts.”
“Alright.” Yin Qin nodded.
“I’m leaving now.”
“Hmm.”
Eleven o’clock in the morning.
Yin Qin sat in the conference room.
All members of the project were present.
No surprise.
500 bucks!
It might not be much in terms of salary, but 500 yuan for sleeping in was definitely not a bargain.
However, most of the people on scene were in a daze.
Ying Qin’s face was serious, “Looks like we should cut back on the celebrations. Look at what a mess you all are.”
“Chairman, it’s not that we want to be in this state, it’s just that you can drink so much. I was throwing up all night, it was torture.”
Everyone chuckled after the statement.
The atmosphere was quite good.
Along with the viewership and word of mouth of yesterday’s program, everyone was pretty relaxed.
Yin Qin also smiled, then returned to his stern demeanor, “Alright, let’s begin the meeting.”
All attendees immediately straightened up.
Yin Qin said, “The success of the first episode is just a preliminary victory, and it’s not necessarily a completely positive thing.”
Everyone looked at Yin Qin.
“This success shows our strength, and this strength will draw envy.” Yin Qin stopped at that point.
The project team got the message.
“But now that it’s come to this, what we need to do is to be even more serious and focused. Before the meeting, I reviewed a few things from yesterday’s live broadcast that weren’t perfect. Everyone can express their opinions. Of course, you can also refute mine. Today’s meeting will focus on discussions.” Having said that, Yin Qin started pointing out areas he was dissatisfied with from last night’s program.
Emotions ran high during the discussion as everyone expressed their points of view.
The meeting lasted for two full hours.
At 1 p.m., everyone finally left for lunch.
As he was heading to the company cafeteria, he bumped into Weng Cheng leaving after his meal.
Their eyes met.
Yin Qin’s lips curled into a smirk, “Director Wei, did the cafeteria food suit your taste today?”
“I’m not picky, unlike certain young masters who are accustomed to a life of pampering.” Wei Cheng jabbed.
Cross roads at night often enough and you’ll surely meet a ghost.
“Not at all. I plan to make Ji Baixin collapse completely. Once that happens, Yin Qin’s attention will be on her. If he neglects managing the ‘Hall of Heaven’ program for even an instant, we’ll have an easy time maneuvering.” Li Wenjun said with a sinister grin.
“Whatever help you need, just say. You always know how to make me happy.”
With a coquettish face, Li Wenjun replied, “It’s my pleasure to alleviate your worries, Queen Ying.”
Wei Cheng was on the verge of vomiting at the side.
That being said, if Li Wenjun could truly lend him a hand, he wouldn’t mind.
So, at three in the afternoon...
Li Wenjun held a press conference before all the media reporters in Jin City, tearfully accusing Ji Baixing of plagiarism. “Yesterday, I warned Baixin not to steal my concepts. I never thought she would use my design in the ‘Hall of Heaven’ selection program again. I was planning to launch this new single-profile column during next season’s production, but was shocked to see Baixin had already employed it in ‘Hall of Heaven’
As he spoke, his eyes reddened.
The man was dejected beyond measure.
The reporters all empathized and asked him a flurry of questions.
Li Wenjun continued, “Baixin and I have been together for many years. I was already devastated when she broke up with me the way she did. I didn’t want our relationship to turn bitter, so I just let it be. But now, Baixin is repeatedly crossing my line. If Baixin steals my designs again, I will protect my rights by legal means!”
“We support you!” the reporters said, standing up for justice.
“Thank you, everyone.”
“Li Wenjun, we heard that you broke up with Ji Baixin because she and Yin Qin have been having an affair?” a reporter asked.
“That affair has indeed been a constant issue!” Li Wenjun emphasized, “At first, I assumed that Baixing and Yin Qin were just friends. But now, I’ve come to realize that Baixin has been taking advantage of Yin Qin’s feelings for her all these years. Although Yin Qin has finally given up on her, I think it’s too late. She won’t stop until she has destroyed Yin Qin’s marriage, and because Yin Qin loves her so much, he can’t resist her...”
“So, you’re saying Ji Baixin is really Yin Qin’s mistress?” the reporter asked excitedly.
“It’s true. Baixin can’t stand the sight of any other women around Yin Qin because she’s used to being the center of attention. I actually sympathize with Yin Qin for being conned by Baixin. He needs to open his eyes to the fact that she’s never been a demure woman. She once acted drunk and tried to seduce me on our first day...”
“Really?” the reporter squealed. “You guys were together when you were in college?”
“Yes,” Li Wenjun nodded, “And I let it go, given my love for her. Now, I feel so worthless after so many years.”
“Ji Baixin really is shameless.”
“I can’t believe Ji Baixin turned out to be this type of woman, considering her high-society background.”
“Ji Baixin severed ties with the Ji family long ago. Such a woman rejected by her own parents can’t amount to much!”
Such news...
News about condemning Ji Baixin made the headlines on major news outlets, trending on live videos. The internet was now flooded with voices condemning Ji Baixin, denouncing her lack of shame.
Ji Baixin suddenly became the most despised figure.
The focus of public wrath!
Boiling agitation.
When Yin Qin saw this news, he leaped to his feet.
That damn Li Wenjun, not only did he falsely accuse Ji Baixin of plagiarizing his design, but now he dared to say that his years-long affection for Baixin was in vain, even claiming that Ji Baixin was his mistress!
Damn!
If they think he’s a pushover, they’re sorely mistaken!
He quickly dialed a number on his phone, only for the call to be abruptly hung up.
Yin Qin furrowed his eyebrows.
He dialed a few more times.
Each call ended the same way.
He felt uneasy.
He dialed Ji Baili’s number, “Baili, your sister isn’t answering her phone, help me find her.”
Ji Baili was in his office, spinning in his chair.
Ever since his brother transferred the Ji Hong Group to him, he’d been living in torment every day.
He said, “I’ve seen today’s news. Yes, Li Wenjun is a jerk, but I think my sister can handle her own affairs.”
“What do you mean?” Yin Qin asked, frowning.
“As a married man, you should focus more on your own family!”
Ji Baili emphasized every word.
