That night, after Ye Tang returned to their house, he had just changed his shoes at the entrance when he saw Lu Yichen looking at him with her arms crossed.

Ye Tang was puzzled, "What's the matter? What happened?"

Lu Yichen snorted coldly and didn't answer him. She turned back and sat on the sofa, taking an apple and eating it as if she was venting her frustration.

Ye Tang was puzzled. Wasn't she still fine this morning? What happened again?

He tried to ease the atmosphere and said, "Yichen, what do you want to eat tonight?"

Lu Yichen glanced at him, throwing the core of the apple into the dustbin.

She took out a tissue and wiped her hands while snorting coldly, "What else is there to eat? I'm too angry with you to eat!"

"Me? Why did I make you angry?" Ye Tang pointed at his nose and asked confusedly.

Seeing that he didn't understand what she was talking about, Lu Yichen became even more angry. She took two deep breaths and spoke slowly, "Didn't you know why you made me angry? It was that in the company you... Let me ask you, did you secretly arrange me a relaxing mission or something?"

Ye Tang was stunned. He didn't expect her to be angry about this. And he didn't say anything.

Thinking that he had defaulted, Lu Yichen sighed. She stood up and walked to him, looking into his eyes. "Ye Tang, I'm very grateful to you for taking care of me in the company, but have you ever thought that the work you've arranged for me may not be what I like to do or what I want to do. Do you know? Since I was young, my dream was to be a journalist who walked around the world. So I really like what I am doing now. Moreover, how could I, Lu Yichen, be afraid of hard work? Or how could I be afraid of challenges? All in all, I like everything I have now, including my current job. So, Ye Tang, can you understand what I mean?"

After saying this, Lu Yichen felt a little thirsty. She picked up the glass on the table and gulped.

"You said that you like everything now. Do you like me?" Ye Tang suddenly blurted out a sentence.

"Puff—"

The world suddenly became quiet.

Fortunately, Ye Tang moved quickly enough to avoid Lu Yichen's drool.

Ye Tang said with disgust, "Why are you so excited? I am just joking with you!"

"Eh-hem..." Lu Yichen thought to herself that this joke was not funny.

"Alright, alright, I won't tease you anymore. I understand what you have said. I admit that I've left words to the subordinates. If you're not satisfied, then I won't do this anymore. I respect your thoughts and I won't interfere too much in the future." Ye Tang said.

When Lu Yichen achieved her goal, he immediately smiled and changed the topic, "Heehee, then what are we eating tonight?"

Ye Tang, "..."

Doing what he said, Ye Tang did not interfere in Lu Yichen's affairs any longer.

At a plenary meeting half a month later, Ye Tang sat in the main seat. This time, they held a meeting because there was a business event that required Ye Tang to personally represent.

Assistant Chen Feng finished reporting on the events of this business activity and waited for Ye Tang's decision.

After a while, Ye Tang slowly opened his mouth. His eyes seemed to flicker across Lu Yichen below, "Have you confirmed the beat reporter?"

Lu Yichen's heart skipped a beat the moment he looked at her. She gulped. Oh my god, please don't let any accident happen again!

Chen Feng answered honestly, "Not yet!"

"Then let her be!" Ye Tang seemed to be pointing at Lu Yichen with a finger, but it was accurate. This pointing made the rest of the staff of the department who had been preparing to mobilize at all times turn their eyes to Lu Yichen with anger.

Lu Yichen resigned herself to desting and closed her eyes. After a while, she stood up as if nothing had happened and bowed, "Thank you, president. I promise to complete the mission successfully!"

Ye Tang curled his lips and got up to leave his seat to announce the end of the meeting.

After returning to the department, Liu Ruifeng came over and whispered to her, "Yichen, how did you make the president pay special regard to you?"

"What do you mean by that? Maybe the president wants to take care of the newbie!" Lu Yichen answered as she prepared to pack up her things and go home.

Liu Ruifeng curled his lips. Obviously, she didn't fall for this, so he didn't ask anymore.

What Lu Yichen did not know was that Ye Tang's decision would push her to the forefront.

The next day, when she arrived at the company, Lu Yichen noticed that the people in the company were all looking at her with strange eyes, which were filled with contempt and disdain. There were even people who were talking about her.

This made Lu Yichen very unhappy. How did she provoke them? Just as she was about to ask someone to clarify, before she could get any closer, that person quickly dodged her. Those who did not know would think that she had some infectious disease!

"Forget it, who cares!" Lu Yichen sat down in her seat and stuffed the earplugs into her ears to prepare for this activity.

She only made a trip to the pantry room and was completely displeased.

She kicked open the door of the pantry room and rushed in, grabbing one of the women's hair and gnashing, "If you dare, repeat what you just said!"

"No, no, no... I didn't say it. No, I didn't dare to do it anymore, I'm... I'm sorry, I was wrong... Let go of me!"

Lu Yichen threw her away and said in disgust, "I warn you, if you dare to gossip behind my back, don't blame me for being impolite!"

The women looked at each other in dismay, not daring to speak.

"Tell me, who spread this rumor!"

"It's Liu ... Sister Liu, Xiaoli, Lulu, and others..."

It was them! Lu Yichen remembered. She did not understand why she was being slandered by the staff in the same department with her.

No, she must go and argue with them. Why did they insult and slander her like this?!

When she found them, they were still spreading rumors.

"Shut up! What are you gossiping?" Lu Yichen's eyes turned red with anger.

The gossipers who were listening immediately ran away when they saw that the situation was in a bad way.

But the three of them including Sister Liu still could not hide their disdain for Lu Yichen.

Xiaoli was the first to speak sarcastically. "Oh, who do I think it is? It turns out to be the shameless female leading role who relies on betraying her body to get ahead!"

This was the second time that Lu Yichen had heard this. It was because she heard this in the pantry room that she was unable to help but raise a hand to them!

"Shut up! What evidence do you have to prove that you're here to gossip?! You're the shameless bitch!" Lu Yichen was flustered and exasperated.

"You..." Xiaoli took a step forward and wanted to continue retorting, but was stopped by sister Liu.

Sister Liu was wearing a pair of eight-centimeter-high heels and looked down at Lu Yichen with disdain, "Lu Yichen, you know that I am very unhappy with you now, right? So, how about making a bet? Within a week, let's see which of us have the bigger news impact. The loser should quit automatically! How about? Do you dare to bet?"
