Chapter 330 Nomination

Xia Ning blinks her eyes. To become a famous star is a dream for every girl.

When she was young, she also had the dream. However, she is not young any longer.

In addition, she has got Yi Yunrui. She has got the whole world. What else can she ask for?

Thinking about this, she shakes her head, “I only want to stay with Rui. It is enough for me.”

“You are obedient.” Tang Qieying compliments, “No wonder that Yi Yunrui loves you so much. There are few women like you. Yi Yunrui is lucky to have you.”

Xia Ning twitches her eyebrows. Seemingly, Tang Qieying was testing her just now.

The exclusive interview on the next day goes smoothly. Because of Tang Qieying’s special identity, Xia Ning has to skip a lot of questions. She chooses some which the fans are most interested in, such as whether Tang Qieying has a boyfriend, when she plans to get married, when she is going to have a baby and what requirements she has on her boyfriend.

In front of the camera, Tang Qieying seems to change into a totally different woman. She doesn’t look tough as usual. She is lovely and cute with an innocent smile on her face.

Xia Ning feels sad for those naïve young men.

“Yeah. This photo is good. I look sweet in it.”

A lot of photos are put in front of Tang Qieying. She checks them for quite a while and picks three of them, “Let’s use these three. I like this style. Well. This will be the cover.”

Xia Ning glances at the cover photo, in which Tang Qieying was eating ice cream. She widened her eyes and looked very sweet.

Xia Ning feels shocked in embarrassment.

Seemingly, Tang Qieying is born to be a famous star.

It takes a whole day for Xia Ning to finish the interview. Tang Qieying asked her to stay in Beijing for fun for some more days. However, Leng Weiwei said that there was something special for her to deal with. On the next early morning, Xia Ning goes back to C City by plane.

Xia Ning gets home. She doesn’t arrange her luggage carefully, but goes directly to her company.

Reading Xia Ning’s report on the exclusive interview, Leng Weiwei nods, “Good. Well done. Are these photos chosen by Ms. Tang?”

“Yes.” Xia Ning points at one of them, “She nominated this one to be the cover photo.”

“Then, we may do as she requested.” Leng Weiwei puts down the report, “Director Xia, since your position is different now, I found a nice girl to help you arrange your files to reduce your burden.”

“It was always done by Ruoruo. She is very capable at work.” Leng Weiwei arranges an assistant for her. Xia Ning wonders whether Leng Weiwei means anything else by that.

Leng Weiwei nods. She takes up the coffee for a sip, “Well. Ruoruo is Gu Luan’s younger sister. She has been working in the weekly for two years. I think it is time for her to work independently.”

Xia Ning’s eyes brighten, “Do you want to give her a promotion?”

“It is temporarily under the plan. However, I need to carefully check on her for some other time. If Ruoruo passes my tests, you will be lack of an assistant. I arrange someone for you in case that Ruoruo may have a sudden change in her position.”

“OK. I see. Which department are you going to send Ruoruo to?”

“She will surely be in your department. I will consult Director Gu about that first.” Leng Weiwei says. She passes a file to Xia Ning, “This is the file about the newcomer. You may have a look.”

Xia Ning opens the file. The newcomer is Su Xueli. She studied abroad and just graduated from the University of Chicago, but has little work experience. She is quite a brand-new comer.

“Good. She has good plasticity.” Xia Ning closes the file, “I will follow your arrangement.”

“Director Xia, I met this girl. She is very active and energetic. But she is a little too naïve. She will work under you. You may spend some time teaching her patiently. If there are any problems, you can come to me. According to the rules of the weekly, she will have a three-month probation in your department. After three months, she will be officially hired.”

“OK. I believe there won’t be any problems, since she is chosen by you.”

Hearing Xia Ning’s words, Leng Weiwei flashes her eyes. She lowers her head for a sip of the coffee, “In your trip to Beijing, did anything special happen?”

The image of Tang Qieying pops up in Xia Ning’s brain. She smiles, “Beijing is a good place. I may go there again when I have time in the future. Well. Chief Editor Leng, you called me to come back early. Is there anything important?”

Leng Weiwei thinks for a short while, “Have you ever heard of the name Su Shen?”

Xia Ning feels surprised!

Su Shen was voted to be the youngest entrepreneur with a high potential of the year 2008. Xia Ning met him once at that time. The man was educated and elegant. He treated people gently and kindly. He was quite the Prince Charming for many ladies of noble families.

However, a few years ago, his wife passed away. After that, Su Shen seldom showed up in commercial occasions and there was little news about him. Seemingly, it had something to do with his wife’s death. He hasn’t been mentioned for a long time. Why does Leng Weiwei mention him at this moment?

“Yes. He is the president of TC Group. He was voted as the youngest entrepreneur with high potential.”

“Su Shen seldom showed up in commercial occasions in recent years as if he simply disappeared. Few people knew his whereabouts. Two days ago, he called me in person. I chatted with him for a while. Mr. Su told me that he was going to continue his uncompleted career. He wanted us to add the momentum for him. The requirement was good for the weekly. Therefore, I agreed. However, I feel quite confused about one thing.”

Xia Ning is aware that Leng Weiwei hesitates. She asks, “What’s it?”

“He nominated you to do the exclusive interview with him.”

Xia Ning feels surprised.

“That was why I asked whether you knew him.”

Xia Ning recalls carefully. She responds decisively, “I met President Su once in a celebration party in 2009. I remember that his wife was standing by him at that time. It seemed that they loved each other very much. I was with Ou Yixuan at that time. Therefore, it was impossible for us to have any contact. Normally speaking, he had no reason to pay attention to me. As to why he nominated me to do the interview, I feel really confused. Maybe it is about something else. Anyway, President Su nominated me to make the interview. It was kind of flattering to me. It is my honor.”

Leng Weiwei thinks for a while, “Good. This is President Su’s number. You may contact him later.”

Xia Ning briefly reports to Leng Weiwei about her trip in the past few days and goes back to her office. Gu Ruoruo gladly brings her a cup of coffee. Xia Ning smiles to ask, “Do you miss me so much? Or, is there anything tough happened in the department?”

“Sister Xia, I just miss you very much! You don’t know. When you were in Beijing, Chief Editor arranged some other work for me. I am exhausted.”

Xia Ning smiles, “That is good for you…”

“Good?” Gu Ruoruo widens her eyes, “Chief Editor Leng always looked serious. I went to her and complained about the work. No matter what I said, she ignored me. Oh…My brother is not here and you all bully me!”

“It is nothing like that. You take it wrong. There will be a newcomer here in two days. At that time, you won’t be so busy any longer.”

Gu Ruoruo’s eyes brighten, “Really? A man or a woman?”

“A woman.”

Gu Ruoruo curls her lips, “I thought it would be a man, so that I could flirt with him.”

“My second elder brother is good. Why? Did he do anything wrong?”

“If you want me to tell the truth.” Gu Ruoruo purses her lips, “Well. I do like him. But I don’t like his mother! If I marry him, I will have to wait upon his mother. I am not as kind as you. I will definitely quarrel fiercely with his mother. At that time, Yunyi will be put into embarrassment. Therefore, it depends.”

Xia Ning thinks for a while and agrees. Her mother-in-law is really troublesome.

If Zheng Yao knows about Yi Yunrui’s case, no wonder, the person to be blamed first must be Xia Ning.

“Ruoruo, my brother is going to be forty years old. There are many women fond of him. You have to grasp the chance.” Anyway, if Ruoruo doesn’t marry to Yi Yunyi, it is a real pity. All these years, Yi Yunyi has only admitted Ruoruo to be his girlfriend.

Gu Ruoruo curls her lips more forcefully, “That’s his business! I don’t care. Aren’t there also many men chasing me?”

Xia Ning rolls her eyes, “Well. I may not interfere with your relationship. This is Su Xueli’s number. Tell her to come tomorrow.”

Guo Ruoruo takes the number over. She is just going out when suddenly she remembers something. She turns pale. She hurriedly turns around and asks, “Wait! Sister Xia, does Chief Editor Leng want to fire me?”

“No.”

“No?” Gu Ruoruo cocks her head, “Recently I was not very obedient to her. She hated me and found someone to replace me! God. I promised my father that I would not be fired. What should I do? Sister Xia, please help me…”

Xia Ning feels helpless. She pats Gu Ruoruo on her shoulder, “Don’t worry. Miss Su doesn’t come to replace you. As to the reasons, I will tell you later. Anyway, it is good for you. Nothing is bad. Don’t take it wrong. You may just work hard.”

Gu Ruoruo still feels worried after hearing Xia Ning’s words, “Sister Xia, can you tell me what is happening?”

“It is a secret.” Xia Ning is aware of Gu Ruoruo’s anxiety. She takes a file from the table and passes it to her, “Organize this file for me. I will need to use it soon.”

Gu Ruoruo still wants to say something. At the time, Xia Ning’s phone rings.

It rings at the right time.

Xia Ning presses the answer button. She turns the chair to face the window, “Hello. This is Xia Ning speaking.”

Gu Ruoruo curls her lips. She turns around to go out.

“Director Xia, hello. This is Su Shen.”

A gentle voice is heard. Xia Ning feels surprised, “Oh. Hi. President Su, I have heard a lot about you.”

“You are flattering me. Have Director Xia come back to C City?”

“Yeah. I have just come back. I heard that President Su wants to have an exclusive interview…”

“Yes. I am in C City, too. I plan to open a vocational village in C City. I seldom contacted my old friends in recent years and many people might forget me. Your weekly is very successful. It is very famous in the world. I want to rely on it. I hope you don’t mind.”

Su Shen’s voice sounds warm, as comfortable as the spring wind. Xia Ning smiles, “President Su is flattering us. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to make an exclusive interview with you. Shall we discuss the meeting time now? When will it be convenient for you?”

Su Shen hesitates and says, “I wonder which coffee shop Director Xia likes most.”
