Chapter 331 - 331:1 Still Have to Work, Don’t Distract MeChapter 331:1 Still Have to Work, Don’t Distract Me
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Perhaps the heavens had heard Ruan Qi’s wish as Professor Chen didn’t come back to his office.
Tang Beibei wrote the thank-you letter, went to withdraw some cash and put both on Professor Chen’s desk before she and Ruan Qi left.
Ruan Qi wanted to go to the studio to dance, but the top student disagreed.
The top student said that they could only go after they finished their homework.
Ruan Qi felt that her life was too hard.
They went back to the library and finished their homework. They also reviewed the key points of today’s lessons before they left the library.
When they arrived at Fu Jin’s dance studio, Tang Beibei noticed that everyone was looking at her and asked Ruan Qi why.
Ruan Qi said, “It’s nothing. Didn’t you buy food and drinks for everyone last time? Everyone is grateful to you, so they supported you by asking people to vote for you when you were slandered.”
“Then everyone is quite kind. A friend in need is a friend indeed.” Tang Beibei said with a smile.
Ruan Qi’s lips twitched. Why did Tang Beibei believe everything she said?
Although the girls in the dance troupe train together, they only look like they got along.
They were all competitors with Tang Beibei in such a ranking competition. Why would they ask people to vote for her?
If Fu Jin hadn’t asked them, they wouldn’t have supported Tang Beibei.
Now that Tang Beibei was ranked fourth and left them behind, it would be strange if they were happy.
However, Ruan Qi was not prepared to tell Tang Beibei these things.
When the teacher arrived, they started training. Meanwhile, Fu Jin, who was upstairs, was much busier.
After sending out a few lawyer letters, he had to deal with the follow-ups.
The reason Tang Beibei’s matter was settled so quickly was because someone was working behind the scenes.
Jiang Jingchen investigated the accounts that posted malicious comments online, found the owners, and then asked Fu Jin to send lawyer’s letters in the name of his dance troupe to the account owners.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMost of the malicious comments were posted from alternate accounts and some of those alternate accounts were owned by contestants of “Dancing Youth”.
When Tang Beibei’s ranking climbed to 11th place, the top 10 contestants felt threatened and decided to act against Tang Beibei. They wanted to keep her out so that they could keep their rankings.
It was just a minor dance competition but evil still lurked.
Some recipients of Fu Jin’s lawyer’s letter were still arrogant and totally unafraid. It was only when the cyber police warned them that they felt afraid.
Things turned out very differently when the cyber police was involved.
Some of them started to apologize and admitted that their online comments were inappropriate. Some even deleted their accounts.
Some of these accounts were obviously troll accounts so they could very well create other alternate accounts after the troll ones were deleted.
Jiang Jingchen didn’t dig too deep, but if those people dared to smear his wife further, he would send people after them, yank them out by the root and then kill them one by one!
Fu Jin wiggled his fingers and brought the matter to a close.
If it blew up more, Tang Beibei’s future would be affected. Besides, the traffic that she generated would only help the program team of “Dancing Youth”.
He updated Jiang Jingchen and was closing their chat window when he received a voice message from Fang Han.
“Was my help a heaven-sent, my little friend, when I posted and Weibo and helped you turn the situation around?”
Fu Jin chuckled. She was here to ask for a reward.
“Yes, you’re great, my not little friend. I’ll treat you to a meal next time.”
“Don’t wait until next time. Today. Treat me to a meal today.”
Fu Jin was helpless. “Alright, come over. I’ll treat you.”
“Then tell me, what should I wear?”
The woman then sent six photos of clothes in a row, all of which were… Sexy lingerie.
Fu Jin held his forehead. “It’s just dinner. There’s no need to be so exaggerated.”
“I can be your delicacy.”
“Then I’ll come in the second set. You’ll have to untie the strings before you can eat. You must be patient, my little friend, like you are peeling a lychee…”
“Alright, alright, stop talking. I’ll start imagining it if you continue. I still have to work, don’t distract me.”
He didn’t fall for her trick.
Fang Han didn’t give up and continued to flirt.
At the customer service department of Jiang Corporation…
It was another day of doing-no-work for Jiang Jingchen.
Although Song Zhou didn’t come to work, the two of them kept in touch.
Song Zhou was the one who investigated the accounts that posted the malicious comments online. Jiang Jingchen was his commander.
Meanwhile online, those who had posted malicious comments apologized. And those who egged people on to watch more drama were as quiet as mice.
“There are really all kinds of people online. People who’d slander someone just because they are jealous of that person’s achievements.”
“Actually, most of the time when you don’t know the truth, it’s best not to maliciously insult others. Otherwise, you’ll get slapped so quickly that you face will be crooked.”
“Tang Beibei is capable and popular. The attack on her came and went quickly. If she has such public relations skills, why doesn’t she just debut as an artiste? She can be famous anywhere with her face.”
Netizens were posting more neutral comments now, but Tang Beibei was still popular.
After all, online discussions about her pushed her up to the list of trending searches. What was a nobody who was a contestant in a minor dance competition doing on the list of trending searches? She might really have the potential.
Jiang Jingchen looked at the comments online and wondered if his wife should make her debut as an artiste.
It was not impossible, but the entertainment industry was complicated. She might not be able to survive given her personality.
“Young Master, I have an incoming call. It seems to be from Miss Wen Sang.”
“Just don’t pick up.”
At Jiang Xing’s birthday banquet, Wen Sang asked Jiang Jingchen for his phone number. Jiang Jingchen couldn’t refuse, so he gave her Song Zhou’s number.
“She’s already called a few times,” Song Zhou said.
“Let her call. I’m busy at work, so it’s perfectly normal that I don’t answer calls.”
Jiang Jingchen looked at his computer. He was really bored. He opened a game, played two rounds and won both.
He was so bored!
He put on his earbuds again and asked Song Zhou, “It feels weird that Song Yan hasn’t caused more trouble.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSong Zhou was helpless. “Alright, I’ll help you find something.”
Song Zhou looked through some papers and said, “Song Yan has been secretly calculating the worth of Jiang Corporation. She has also secretly transferred her personal savings to an account overseas. She probably wants to keep it for her youngest son.”
Jiang Jingchen scoffed coldly. “Her second son is still in the hospital, and she’s not doing anything?”
“She’s also arranging Jiang Minglang’s subsequent treatments with his doctor, but I reckon that Song Yan is waiting for Jiang Xing to pay for his treatment. She’s probably keeping her personal savings for Jiang Minghua and Jiang Mingyang.”
Jiang Jingchen propped his chin lazily. He was just waiting for an opportunity to expose the Jiang family.
“Call Yang Hao. I want to know how the cooperation is going.”
“It’s not moving as quickly as we hoped.”
“Looks like I need to do something on my end.”
Jiang Jingchen ended the call with Song Zhou before he called Yang Hao and chatted for a while until it was almost time to knock off.
Before he left the office, he slowly looked at the boy not far away.
He was taking notes from his day’s work, but it seemed like he was going to work overtime.
Jiang Jingchen had been observing this person for a while. He was serious and tactful but never overeager. He did everything steadily and got along with his colleagues without being too friendly or too distant.
He was a person who could handle things well.
According to his employee record, he was 22 years old, had just graduated from university, and was an intern at Jiang Corporation.
The corners of his mouth curled up as he walked over and said, “Wu Rui, you’re not knocking off?”
“No, I still have a bit of work to finish. Young Master Jiang, are you knocking off now?”
“Yes, I’m going fetch my wife before we go home.”
Wu Rui smiled and pushed his glasses up his nose, like a simple and honest boy.
Jiang Jingchen narrowed his eyes and looked at Wu Rui’s glasses. The lenses and material of his glasses cost tens of thousands of yuan.
“Young Master Jiang really dotes on your wife. I heard that men who dote on women will have great achievements.”
“I don’t have any great achievements. If you are knocking off now, I’ll give you a ride.”
“No need, no need. Thank you, Young Master Jiang. Bye.”
Wu Rui waved his hand repeatedly, as if he did not want to get too close to Jiang Jingchen.
Jiang Jingchen turned the car key in his hand and looked at Wu Rui’s shoes.
Ordinary interns would not be able afford limited edition shoes..
