Chapter 1062 Ou Zhonghai
Chen Xuan said, "The reporter who reported this matter is named Xia Yilin. You keep an eye on this. I feel that this matter will not be reported smoothly. As for other matters, you can use your discretion."
"Mr. Chen, don't worry, I will definitely arrange this matter properly."
"Good!"
After speaking, Chen Xuan hung up the phone and drove towards the Su family villa.
At the same time.
"Knock, knock, knock!"
A pair of slender hands knocked on the editor-in-chief's office door as if their lives depended on it, as if their behinds were on fire.
"Come in!"
A voice came from the office. Xia Yilin hurriedly pushed open the door and walked in. She saw a bald old man in his forties or fifties, with a big belly, sitting in a leather chair.
He wore a loose western suit, a white shirt, a full beard, and black-rimmed glasses, which gave him a scholarly appearance. wΑp.kanshu伍.net
This person was named Ou Zhonghai, the editor-in-chief of Xia Yilin's newspaper.
"Little Xia is here? Sit down, sit down quickly!"
Ou Zhonghai's gaze sharpened when he saw Xia Yilin, and he quickly beckoned her.
Xia Yilin had no time to sit and got straight to the point: "Editor Ou, I received a tip from the public today and interviewed an important news story. I want to publish it immediately. Please review it for me!"
Ou Zhonghai was stunned and smiled, "What important news is it? It's almost time to get off work at this time!"
"It's a matter of life and death!"
"Ah? Bring it here, let me see!"
Ou Zhonghai seemed to think of something, a curious look appeared on his face, and he even stood up.
Xia Yilin hurriedly handed her camera to Ou Zhonghai and said, "Editor Ou, what I photographed is in here. Please take a look."
Ou Zhonghai took the camera, opened it, and started looking. After he finished, his expression was blank, and his face looked extremely unpleasant.
Xia Yilin's mind was entirely focused on publishing the news as soon as possible, and she didn't notice Ou Zhonghai's expression. She quickly said, "Editor Ou, can this news be published now?"
Ou Zhonghai frowned, "Little Xia, did you take all these photos and videos?"
Xia Yilin nodded: "Yes."
"Did you keep backups?"
"No, I didn't have time yet." Xia Yilin was being cautious; in fact, she had already made backups of these items.
Ou Zhonghai breathed a sigh of relief and nodded slightly, "That's good..."
Xia Yilin frowned, seeming to notice that Ou Zhonghai's expression was not right, and asked, "Editor Ou, what's wrong?"
"It's nothing. You did a great job. You've done a very righteous thing. That pickled vegetable factory has probably scammed so many people!" Ou Zhonghai was also very indignant, but this indignation seemed somewhat hypocritical.
"Editor Ou, I've also finished writing the news draft. Please review it quickly. We can publish it online first today and then in the newspaper tomorrow," Xia Yilin urged.
Unexpectedly, Ou Zhonghai said in a deep voice, "Little Xia, leave this matter to me. You can go out now."
"Ah?"
Xia Yilin frowned, "Editor Ou, what do you mean by that? You're not going to allow it to be published, are you?"
By now, even a rookie like Xia Yilin knew what Ou Zhonghai meant.
"I don't mean that."
"Then why aren't you publishing it?"
"Little Xia, this matter involves too many people. It's not as simple as you think. You probably know the forces behind it, right? Don't get involved in this matter. Leave it to me to handle, to the newspaper. I guarantee that this news will definitely be released!"
Ou Zhonghai said with an earnest promise.
With that said, Xia Yilin didn't say anything more. Fortunately, she still had a backup.
She sighed, "Alright then! I'll be going out now."
Then, Xia Yilin turned and walked outside.
Ou Zhonghai, however, flashed a mocking smile and thought to himself: I knew she would cause trouble for me!
However, he suddenly remembered something: "Little Xia, wait, I have something I want to ask you!"
"Oh? What is it?"
Xia Yilin stopped and turned back.
"Are you familiar with Mr. Chen, the live-in son-in-law of the Su family in the provincial capital?" Ou Zhonghai asked tentatively, "I need some help..."
Xia Yilin hesitated for a moment, then shook her head, "I'm sorry, Mr. Ou, I'm not familiar with Mr. Chen. I've only met him twice... no... three times."
Remembering that she had met Chen Xuan once today, Xia Yilin corrected herself.
"Oh... I see. Alright, you can go out now. Leave this matter to me."
Ou Zhonghai waved his hand.
After Xia Yilin left, Ou Zhonghai murmured, "It seems that those forces were just acting on behalf of Chen Xuan at the time, and they didn't know Xia Yilin... Then this matter will be easy to handle!"
At this thought, Ou Zhonghai was completely relieved. His politeness was entirely due to his doubts.
Afterward, Ou Zhonghai picked up the phone on his desk and made a call.
Ten minutes later, Xia Yilin was working at her desk when suddenly the door was kicked open, and a group of burly men holding metal baseball bats rushed in aggressively, terrifying everyone.
"Look, it's the Green Gang!"
"This Green Gang is notorious. Why are they here?"
Xia Yilin, who had been burying her head in work, looked up. When she saw one of the men leading the group, her expression changed. Although the man's face was bruised and bandaged, she could still recognize him as the man who had chased her earlier.
Why did they find her?
Xia Yilin couldn't understand. Fearing retaliation, she hadn't revealed her identity or name, so those people didn't know who she was.
Could it be a coincidence?
"Who is Xia Yilin? Stand out for me now!"
The big man scanned the crowd and shouted.
Xia Yilin didn't have time to think and quickly lowered her head. Her colleagues were also loyal and didn't look at Xia Yilin at all.
"You have the guts to take pictures, but not to stand out? Believe it or not, I'll smash your newspaper right now!" a thug yelled.
The people around were scared pale and trembling.
At this moment, Ou Zhonghai walked out of his office quickly, "Brother Qiang, please don't do this. My place is a small newspaper office, and it can't withstand any trouble!"
The Brother Qiang he mentioned was the man who had chased Xia Yilin before. His full name was Zhang Qiang.
"Editor Ou, didn't you just call me? Where is your reporter Xia Yilin?" Zhang Qiang asked coldly.
Xia Yilin instantly understood that Ou Zhonghai had betrayed her. No wonder these people had arrived so quickly.
"Brother, Little Xia is over there!" kanδん
Editor Ou pointed to Xia Yilin's workstation.
Zhang Qiang glanced over and happened to see Xia Yilin. His eyes immediately narrowed, and he walked towards Xia Yilin's workstation aggressively with his men.
Xia Yilin's expression changed. Although she knew they had seen her, she still held onto a sliver of hope that they hadn't seen her.
"Reporter Xia, we meet again!"
Zhang Qiang slapped the table in front of Xia Yilin.
Since she had been exposed, Xia Yilin saw no reason to pretend anymore. She looked at Ou Zhonghai angrily, "Editor Ou, why did you do this?"
Compared to Zhang Qiang, she hated Ou Zhonghai even more.
