"Mr. Yuan, there is something I want to apologize to you. ”

In the president's office, Wu Mian looked at Qianrou with a sincere face and said.

"What's the matter?" Qianrou looked down at the documents on the table, and her tone was still as cold as just now.

"Last night at your house, I took a shower without your consent and used a bottle of European perfume in your room...... Well, it should be your husband's relic, it must be a very important commemorative significance for you, and I shouldn't use it without permission. I'm sorry!" Wu Mian said and bowed deeply.

"Did you really use it?" Asamu looked up suddenly, her eyes angry and disappointed, "What did you do after you used it?"

Wu Mian immediately judged that the guess just now was correct, and this beautiful young woman was only "suspicious" rather than "confirmed" that she was being taken advantage of, so she teased with the most relaxed attitude: "Please! Don't look at me with that kind of eyes, I didn't insult you! At that time, you were so drunk that you vomited me, so I had to wash my clothes and take a shower by the way......"

"What? I threw up?" said Asarou, looking incredulous.

"yes, your vomit has too much alcohol to wash it off! Wu Mian picked up his mobile phone and pulled up a photo of his shirt for Qianrou to see.

This was taken after he came home in the early morning, and he originally wanted to tell the truth after seeing Qianrou today, telling her that it was caused by her drunken spilling the juice, so as to persuade her not to drink in the future. Now it just came in handy, liaring to her that it was the traces left by vomiting.

At a suspicious glance, the shirt in the photo was wrinkled and there was a distinct dark stain in the middle. Her face immediately turned red, and she subconsciously reached out to cover her lips: "No, I'm ...... I'm so out of shape? Hey, it's over, it must stink to death, right?"

"It didn't smell good, that's why I put on some perfume. Wu Mian smiled narrowly, "I didn't expect that after you smelled the perfume, you might have mistaken me for your husband, and kept shouting 'have you come back from heaven', 'don't leave me' or something, and still hugged me and didn't let ......go."

Qianrou's face was red, and she glared at him fiercely: "It's funny, isn't it? So you just watch me make a fool of yourself?" or ...... Is it just wrong?"

"How is that possible? you were really ...... at that time," Wu Mian deliberately wrinkled his nose and stopped talking, "Anyway, I am in order, quickly take a towel to wash your face, and then take a few mints and stuff it in your mouth." ”

"I ate the mints?"

"yes. I wanted to rinse your mouth with water, but you wouldn't sit up for anything, so I couldn't pour water into it, so I had to put you to sleep with mints in your mouth, so that when you woke up, the taste in your mouth wouldn't be weird......"

Qianrou even turned red at this time, and interrupted: "Don't say it, it's too embarrassing!"

"I'm telling the truth, you were lying like this, and I was feeding you candy like this...... You should remember the details carefully, more or less......"

"What's there to remember? It's best to forget it sooner! Oh my God, I'm missing all of my image now!" Qianrou looked depressed, leaning back in her chair weakly, looking very annoyed.

Wu Mian secretly snickered, knowing that the "psychological tactics" he had drawn up had succeeded.

A woman with such a good temperament as Qianrou, usually cares most about her own image, and this is precisely her weakness, as soon as she heard that she had been drunk and vomited, her first reaction was to be ashamed, and her momentum was first shorter; Since I don't think about it, of course, I won't investigate whether I was indecent at that time, so I can only choose to believe Wu Mian's words.

"So, don't drink anymore! Image is secondary, getting drunk is really bad for your health. Wu Mian took the opportunity to persuade the female boss.

"I don't want to drink it, but I can't help it...... The newspaper needs more money to operate. Her face turned gloomy. She paused, looked at Wu Mian and said, "Have you seen a picture of my husband? Do you know who he is?"

Wu Mian shook his head: "I was just about to ask you." It feels a little familiar. ”

She opened the drawer and carefully took out an old yellowed newspaper and unfolded it on the table.

Wu Mian saw that this was the inaugural issue of "Dongjiang Business Daily" more than 20 years ago. On one of the pages was a black and white portrait of a man, who looked much younger, but could still recognize it at a glance as a gentle deceased husband.

There is a line of small print below, indicating that the man's name is Ding Zeyuan, and he is the first president of Dongjiang Business Daily.

"Ah, it's him!" Wu Mian patted his head and secretly scolded himself for being confused.

Ding Zeyuan is a well-known senior journalist in Dongjiang Province, who is good at discovering business news, and those local business tycoons who made a fortune in the 90s have basically accepted his exclusive interviews. The era when he was in charge of the "Dongjiang Business Daily" was the most glorious period of this newspaper, with sales exceeding 200,000 copies at its peak, and it had an incomparably strong influence in the business world.

However, after entering the 21st century, Ding Zeyuan had to leave his beloved newspaper office due to poor health, and turned to other lighter jobs, and unfortunately died of illness a few years later. Although his figure has long disappeared from the press world, the news works he planned and interviewed have a high reputation in the industry. Wu Mian remembered that when he was taking a professional class at the university, the lecturer had specially introduced Ding Zeyuan and his affairs, so he left an impression.

The "Dongjiang Business Daily" has been getting worse and worse since Ding Zeyuan stepped down, the news level has become worse and worse, the sales have declined sharply every year, and the change of several presidents has been unable to recover the decline.

"When we first met, you said that you would save this newspaper no matter what, and that it was your husband's last wish! Wu Mian suddenly realized.

"My husband has devoted all his heart and soul to this newspaper, and he has been caring about it since he left, and he is saddened by its decline...... Six years ago, when he died, I stayed by his side, and although he couldn't say a word, I could read his eyes...... I know that his greatest wish is to save this newspaper and restore it to its glory......"

When she said this, her eyes were slightly moist, and her eyes showed deep remembrance.

Wu Mian was speechless for a while, not knowing what to say.

Qianrou opened the conversation box and told Wu Mian more inside information. After Ding Zeyuan's death, she fell into great grief and pain, and she was too young to take on any heavy responsibilities, so she left to work in other provinces, and later became the chief writer of "Confidant" magazine.

Six years have passed, and she has finally gradually come out of her grief and accumulated a lot of work experience and funds. However, "Dongjiang Business Daily" fell into an even more chaotic desperate situation, with a large number of employees lost, and no one was even willing to take over the position of president. So Qianrou took the initiative to return to Zhuzhou City, took over this hot potato, and was determined to do her best to support the survival of this newspaper.

After Wu Mian listened, he once again respected Qianrou. He said seriously: "Mr. Yuan, I will do my best to help you." I assure you that as long as I'm here, Dongjiang Business Daily will never go out of business!"

"Thank you, Xiao Wu. She smiled softly and looked at Wu Mian's eyes full of gratitude.

Wu Mian really wanted to continue chatting with her and get to know her whole inner world. For example, Ding Zeyuan is much older than Qianrou, how did this relationship come about? Also, Ding Zini is actually Ding Zeyuan's sister, but no one seems to know about it in the outside world, what is going on?

But Qianrou suddenly diverted the topic: "By the way, I have bad news for you, Lao Wang had a car accident this morning!"

Lao Wang is the editor that Wu Mian couldn't contact just now. He blurted out: "No wonder, I can't get through to Lao Wang's mobile phone." Is he badly injured?"

"I visited him in the hospital and he broke his right leg and everything else is fine, but he has to take a month of sick leave. "There is only one of the two editors left, and if we don't have someone to fill it, we'll be busy enough from tonight." ”

"Correct, it's not just one left, it's not even half left!" Wu Mian recounted what happened between himself and Duan Yu, telling her that the other editor and two reporters were also not at their posts.

Qian Rou was taken aback after hearing this, and looked anxious and dissatisfied: "Why is Duan Yu so confused? shouldn't the three of them be allowed to take leave on a business trip at all...... No, I'll ask him what's going on?"

"No need to ask, I don't think Duan Yu can do it. Unexpectedly, Wu Mian expressed his understanding and analyzed everyone's situation one by one. The editor who resigned wanted to leave a long time ago, and he had argued before that he didn't want to stay longer for a day, and it was useless if Duan Yu didn't approve it. The other two female reporters had an urgent matter at home, and Duan Yu approved it if he wanted to come, and the other was on a business trip to shine the shoes of a major customer, which is also an important task that cannot be shirked.

The reason why he defended Duan Yu was, of course, not to repay his grievances with virtue, but the result of careful calculation - since Duan Yu dared to do this, he must have thought of sufficient reasons in advance, and when he asked Qianrou, he would definitely be able to answer without leakage, making her believe that he definitely didn't do it on purpose.

Since this is the case, Wu Mian thought that it would be better to plan and take the initiative to defend Duan Yu in turn. He estimated that Duan Yu was going to say almost these reasons, and now he would say it first, and when Duan Yu said it himself, it would sound much worse for Qianrou. This is number one. Second, this kind of defense of the rival in love can best show a man's broad mind, and it will definitely have a bonus effect in Qianrou's heart, which further reflects Duan Yu's narrowness.

"Xiao Wu, you are really ...... Alas, I don't know how to describe you. Qianrou really showed a complicated look of apology and relief, and then looked at him helplessly like a little girl, "Now it's just the two of us." Tomorrow's Layout...... Do you think you can come here?"

"yes, I'm worried I won't be able to keep up. Wu Mian had a bitter face, "Alas, as soon as I took office, I encountered this big problem, and I was worried to death." ”

But a shallow smile appeared at the corner of Qianrou's mouth: "No matter how big the problem is, you must have a way to solve it, right?"
