Capítulo 110

So she slowly approached Wen Tang and whispered, "Then why did you want to see Liu Hui?"

Wen Tang has completely crossed her bottom line, so she will not show any mercy.

Wen Tang's face turned ashen, and she stared at Ni Jingxi with wide eyes.

Ni Jingxi took a step back and looked at her coldly: "If you're wrong, admit it; if you're going to get hit, stand firm."

"So this time you'd better stand firm and take the beating."

Ni Jingxi's voice was as cold as ice, perhaps she was never a kind person. Anyone who harmed her family, she would send them to hell.

Chapter 76

After a moment of stunned silence, Wen Tang nearly went berserk, glaring venomously at Ni Jingxi. But then the investigators beside her came over and asked her to cooperate with the investigation immediately.

Xue Yujie arrived quickly; he was Wen Tang's superior and also needed to be questioned.

Of course, this is just a routine matter.

Xue Yujie calmly accepted the offer. Wen Tang wanted to say something, but Xue Yujie looked at her calmly and said, "Wen Tang, the most important thing for you now is to explain the problem as soon as possible."

Wen Tang was already somewhat flustered after being reminded by him.

Although she had acted recklessly before because she thought she was doing things without anyone noticing, she was completely flustered when she was suddenly confronted.

After Wen Tang was taken away, the entire office erupted in chaos.

No one expected their colleague to be taken away for insider trading. They all knew that if convicted of insider trading, he could very likely go to jail. Previously, a highly capable business genius in China was convicted of insider trading.

Before leaving, Wen Tang said a few words to Ni Jingxi, though no one heard what they were saying. However, many people were glancing over at them, seemingly observing them.

Song Yu looked at Ni Jingxi with concern.

Ni Jingxi, on the other hand, remained calm and unaffected. That's just her personality; once she's made up her mind, she'll do it and won't be easily swayed by external influences.

Then someone asked, "Won't Wen Tang go to jail?"

But after she asked that question, no one in the office answered her, because no one knew what Wen Tang's current situation was, whether the amount of her insider trading was huge, or whether it had had a significant impact.

After all, if it's just a small transaction, confiscating the illegal gains and imposing a fine isn't a big deal.

Everyone knows that Wen Tang comes from a well-off family and has a rich second-generation boyfriend, so she should be able to afford the fine.

But what if she goes too far in courting disaster...

Before Xue Yujie returned in the afternoon, he didn't call Ni Jingxi directly in the office. Instead, he called her beforehand and asked her to come outside.

Xue Yujie leaned against the railing. This was an extended balcony in the newspaper office, where people often liked to chat during their lunch break.

There aren't many people around right now, as it's the workday.

As Ni Jingxi slowly walked over, Xue Yujie heard the footsteps and turned around. He smiled at Ni Jingxi and said, "Do you know?"

He had only said four words when he suddenly burst out laughing, turned around, and put his hands on the railing.

"Wen Tang is really doomed this time," he said calmly.

When Xue Yujie went to assist with the investigation, although they said it was still in progress and they couldn't reveal more details, Xue Yujie still managed to find a friend. After all, he had always been in charge of economic news, and at such a young age, his connections were naturally quite extensive.

Although the other party did not reveal specifics, his implication was that this matter was very big, extremely big.

It's not just about Wen Tang alone.

And she is very likely to go to jail.

Ni Jingxi glanced at him indifferently: "It seems she's not just a little bit greedy."

Ni Jingxi wasn't exactly expecting this result, but it wasn't surprising either. She walked to the edge of the balcony and leaned on the railing. This wasn't a tall building, so she could only see the road across the street.

At that moment, a cleaning lady carrying her water cup walked out of a milk tea shop.

As she walked to the door, she gave a slight bow towards the inside of the store.

With the weather so hot these days, sanitation workers are very susceptible to heatstroke, so many shops along the street have provided them with places to rest and drinking water.

Xue Yujie turned to look at her, and after a while he noticed that her gaze was fixed on the opposite side, so he looked over as well.

"What's wrong?"

Ni Jingxi watched as the woman slowly walked to her garbage truck, opened her cup, and began to drink water. She gently raised her chin and said, "Those who have power have no one to be grateful to. Instead, they use their power to further enrich themselves. On the contrary, many ordinary people silently abide by the rules of this society."

"If I receive help, I will say thank you; if I am treated kindly, I will bow in acknowledgment."

Xue Yujie remained silent for a long time, then suddenly shook his head with a smile: "Ni Jingxi, you really are someone I can't understand."

"I admit it," Ni Jingxi said politely.

Xue Yujie's phone rang just then. After glancing down at it, he turned back and sighed, "It seems our colleagues get information pretty quickly too."

No sooner had Wen Tang's incident come to light than someone called him to inquire about it.

After all, it's a major scandal in journalism that a Xinhua News Agency reporter is under investigation for insider trading. I doubt the higher-ups will let him off the hook in the next few days.

Xue Yujie nodded and chuckled, "You've really given me a tough problem this time."

Ni Jingxi looked at him quietly until she spoke softly, "My resignation letter is ready, and I will send it to your email before I leave work today."

Xue Yujie's eyes widened. He hadn't expected Ni Jingxi to be so decisive and efficient.

“That’s not what I meant,” Xue Yujie sighed.

Ni Jingxi seemed quite relaxed. She looked at him and said, "I know that Wen Tang's accident will inevitably have an impact on you and the newspaper, after all, she is your subordinate. It's not because I feel guilty, but because I know that I have indeed brought negative effects to the newspaper."

So she wanted to resign.

Xue Yujie was a little unsure how to continue.

He sighed: "What if I wanted to keep you? Jingxi, you are a very good reporter, capable and with a strong sense of social responsibility. Losing you would be even more unacceptable to me than Wentang being arrested."

Ni Jingxi smiled easily and said sincerely, "Thank you. Even knowing that's just how you talk, I'm still very happy."

Xue Yujie widened his eyes and said innocently, "What did I say? I never praise people easily."

But as soon as he finished speaking, he said in a serious tone, "Actually, this matter has been around for a while. I just happened to tell you today that we have a training opportunity that requires us to go to Beijing for three months. This training is a really rare opportunity, and you can't even imagine how amazing the teachers who will be teaching you are."

&nbs-->>

Despite saying that, in order to lure Ni Jingxi, Xue Yujie still revealed the names of several teachers.

Sure enough, Ni Jingxi's eyes lit up.

Xue Yujie originally intended to give this opportunity to Ni Jingxi, but he really didn't expect that something like this would happen in the middle, which could be considered as revealing it in advance.

After they finished talking, they went downstairs separately.

Wen Tang did not come to work for the next few days. Although she has not been detained yet, she has been barred from leaving the country.

Moreover, it's said that her wealthy boyfriend was also involved.

Even without Ni Jingxi's intervention, their large-scale manipulation of accounts would have been detected by the China Securities Regulatory Commission's big data monitoring long ago. However, due to the massive amount of information involved in insider trading, different people would receive different favorable news, so it would take several months to find the real person controlling these accounts.

Ni Jingxi's involvement has allowed the China Securities Regulatory Commission to directly identify the suspect.

Soon, various financial media outlets began to report on this insider trading, and Shanghai media outlets went almost crazy digging into the background of Wen Tang and her boyfriend.

Because Wen Tang is in the media industry, it's not difficult to dig up news about her.

Soon her name was exposed in the media, and netizens almost universally hated her. After all, the stock market had not been doing well in recent years, and many people had lost money. On the contrary, Wen Tang made a fortune by taking advantage of her position to obtain inside information.

Ni Jingxi decided to accept Xue Yujie's suggestion and go to Beijing to study.

When she told Huo Shenyan about it, he was silent for a few seconds. Ni Jingxi thought he was reluctant to part with her, so she immediately hugged him and whispered, "There are still weekends. I promise to come back to see you every weekend."

Before Huo Shenyan could speak, Ni Jingxi tilted her head and gently shook it.

"Are you really unhappy?" Ni Jingxi cautiously observed his expression. She thought Huo Shenyan wouldn't mind, after all, Beijing and Shanghai aren't far apart, and the plane would arrive soon.

Only then did Huo Shenyan raise his head and say slowly, "I just wanted you to be a little more affectionate."

Ni Jingxi was stunned.

Then she looked at Huo Shenyan and suddenly tilted her head slightly to one side: "Thank you, husband. I love you the most."

Her usually aloof voice suddenly softened, and for a moment a tingling sensation rose from his tailbone, especially since she had shifted a little while sitting on his lap.

Who the hell could stand this?

When Huo Shenyan looked at her, the edges of his eyes reddened.

The next second, he tackled Ni Jingxi to the ground, almost gritting his teeth as he whispered in her ear, "I was going to let you go..."

Ni Jingxi was so angry she almost laughed.

Why do men always have so many high-sounding reasons?

*

Ni Jingxi was already preparing to go to Beijing, and Ni Pingsen agreed. He felt that Ni Jingxi was young and it wouldn't hurt for her to learn more while she was young.

Besides, that makes sense, Beijing is so close.

However, when Reuters first reported the EU's special hearing on Hengya Group, the world's attention was focused on this Chinese giant.

Hengya Group immediately issued a statement saying it would cooperate with the hearing to prove the legality and rationality of all of its business activities.

When Ni Jingxi saw the news in her office, she was no more shocked than anyone else.

She never really interfered with Huo Shenyan's work, since much of it involved trade secrets, and she rarely even went to his study at home.

Although there are no secrets between the couple, they respect each other's work.

Unless you bring it up yourself.

She had known that Hengya Group had been dealing with the EU recently, but she didn't expect the situation to be this bad.

When they got home that evening, Huo Shenyan saw that she looked preoccupied and hugged her, saying, "Don't worry, I'm fine. You go to Beijing to study, and I'll come back to see you in a few days."

Ni Jingxi looked up at him: "Can I really rest assured?"

Huo Shenyan chuckled and kissed her forehead: "Okay, I'll be fine. You forgot, we haven't reported our wedding yet."

Ni Jingxi didn't expect him to bring this up at a time like this.

The next day, Ni Jingxi went to Xue Yujie's office, placed her resignation letter on his desk, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry I disappointed you in the end."
