What an amazing boyfriend! My two female colleagues can't stop praising him.
After Ni Jingxi left the tea room and returned to her table, Hua Zheng glanced at the tea room, leaned her chair closer, and whispered, "Did you see that bracelet worth over ten thousand?"
Ni Jingxi smiled and said, "You saw it too."
"Almost everyone in the newspaper office knows by now. No wonder she hasn't been following Wen Tang around like a shadow lately; now her lackey is going to take over," Hua Zheng said in a very low voice.
Hua Zheng disliked both Wu Mengni and Wen Tang.
However, she disliked Wu Mengni even more because Wu Mengni was the one who directly made things difficult for Ni Jingxi.
To everyone's surprise, Wu Mengni came out of the tea room a moment later and went straight to Ni Jingxi's table. She lowered her wrist and tapped it lightly on Ni Jingxi's table twice, causing the gold bracelet to dangle from her wrist.
"You need to submit your interview transcript as soon as possible. Team Leader Wen is out interviewing today, so don't be lazy and submit it quickly. The advertising department has been urging you several times." Wu Mengni rolled her eyes and raised her hand to tuck a stray hair behind her ear.
After she finished speaking, she turned and swayed away.
Hua Zheng was so angry that she slammed the folder down on the spot and said in a low voice, "Isn't this just outrageous? Why isn't anyone going to teach this woman a lesson?"
Ni Jingxi looked up and sneered, "Who said there isn't..."
Before she could finish speaking, the large glass door to the open office was suddenly pushed open.
A woman with dyed blonde hair stormed in with several men, and immediately began yelling at the entire office hall, "Wu Mengni, where is that bitch Wu Mengni?"
This loud, powerful shout startled everyone in the entire office area.
At that moment, Wu Mengni was standing in the aisle, quite conspicuous compared to her other seated colleagues. The blonde woman glanced around and her eyes landed on her.
This really stirred up a hornet's nest.
The woman rushed towards Wu Mengni in a few strides, grabbed her hair, and shouted, "You little slut, you're seducing other people's husbands, aren't you? You're quite comfortable using my husband, aren't you?"
Before her colleagues could even react, foul language was already escalating throughout the office area.
While the blonde woman was beating Wu Mengni, the men she brought with her were also busy, actually scattering flyers or something similar around the entire office area.
Hundreds of sheets of A4 paper-like objects drifted down into the air like snowflakes.
There happened to be one on Ni Jingxi's desk. She glanced down at it and saw that it was a chat log and a photo.
"Holy crap!" Hua Zheng bit her hand hard.
Because when she saw this chat log, she felt like she was reading a vulgar and obscene erotic novel conversation, which was as disgusting as it could possibly be.
The picture above is actually a nude selfie of Wu Mengni in front of a mirror.
In the photo, she has her hands on her chest, her teeth gently biting her lip, looking alluring and seductive.
"Holy shit." Hua Zheng was so shocked that only these two words could be uttered.
At this point, the blonde woman had gained the upper hand. She pressed Wu Mengni down on the table, tearing her collar slightly, and while tearing, she cursed, "You little slut, you're not the type to show off, but now I'll let you show off as much as you want."
However, the woman's arrogance didn't last long, as the building's security guards quickly arrived, and her male colleagues in the office reacted and came to her aid. The security guards tried to remove them, but the blonde woman was extremely arrogant, and with several men protecting her, the guards couldn't touch them at all.
The blonde woman yelled, "Where are your leaders? I want to ask your newspaper's leaders, do you even care if your subordinates seduce other women's husbands?"
Previously, there were quite a few cases online of wives causing trouble at the mistresses' companies, and their newspaper's lifestyle section also interviewed many of these domestic disputes.
But no one expected that one day their newspaper employees would become the main characters.
Moreover, news travels very fast upstairs and downstairs, and by now, many employees from other companies have gathered at the door to watch the spectacle.
The blonde woman didn't care at all as more and more people gathered around her; on the contrary, she was even happier because she had come here to cause a big scene.
“You are all journalists, you are all educated people. I, who never went to school and endured a hard life, can't compare to you. You be the judge. This little bitch actually wants to persuade my husband to divorce his wife and marry her.”
“I’ve been with him all the way from wholesaling and selling seafood. Now that we’re rich, these little bitches are all clinging to me and trying to take my place.”
"Pah!" The woman spat at Wu Mengni without any hesitation.
Actually, several leaders from the newspaper were present today, and everyone knows what happened by now. But not a single one of them came forward; it's incredibly embarrassing.
In the end, the police came to the company and took the other party away.
However, before leaving, the blonde woman produced a large number of receipts, claiming they were gifts her husband had bought for Wu Mengni, worth hundreds of thousands of yuan. What she said seemed perfectly reasonable; her husband had used their marital property to buy those things, and she wanted to rightfully reclaim them.
Okay, in the end, the police took Wu Mengni away with them.
After all, she did accept the gift, and she's still wearing the bracelet on her wrist.
After the police took the person away, the entire office area fell into a deathly silence; not even the sound of typing could be heard. Everyone was still reeling from the farce.
Until Hua Zheng whispered, "Jingxi, is your mouth blessed?"
Ni Jingxi: "..."

Tang Mian's car was parked across the street. He watched the blonde woman go up and the police take everyone down before driving away back to the company.
He knocked lightly on the door twice before pushing it open and entering.
Huo Shenyan, dressed only in a suit vest and shirt, looked up and asked, "Is the matter settled?"
Tang Mian nodded: "I didn't go to see, but everyone was taken away by the police. The scene must have been quite interesting."
Huo Shenyan instructed Tang Mian to handle this matter. Originally, he only asked Tang Mian to inquire about Ni Jingxi's recent situation at the newspaper. After all, she had mentioned the newspaper during the barbecue that day and seemed to be in a bad mood.
When Tang Mian found out what he had found out, his face immediately darkened.
Tang Mian discovered Wu Mengni's affair with someone else and reported it to Huo Shenyan. Tang Mian cautiously observed his boss's expression and asked in a low voice, "Mr. Huo, what are your plans..."
Huo Shenyan tapped the table lightly with his finger and said calmly, "Go help this Mrs. Wang. Someone is watching her position."
And so, today's show begins.
Author's Note: Brother Tong: Our handsome brother doesn't harm anyone, he's just a good person who stands up for what's right!

Chapter 12
Wu Mengni's incident has caused such a huge uproar, and a video was even uploaded online the next day.
The wife beat up the mistress, who was a reporter.
The title alone was enough to attract attention without UC News even needing to intervene, and the topic immediately went viral, quickly taking the top ten spots on Weibo's trending searches.
Soon, Wu Mengni's name was identified by netizens, and her Weibo account was also found.
She's never been one to keep a low profile. With Chanel and Cartier on her hands, how could she resist showing off? In the coffee shop, she casually picked up a white porcelain cup, and not only was her four-diamond Cartier bracelet on her wrist photographed, but the Chanel bag on the table was also captured in the shot.
Moreover, her Weibo posts feature many landmarks, ranging from top-tier restaurants in Shanghai where the average cost per person is two or three thousand yuan to five-star hotels.
After netizens dug into her past, some couldn't help but remark that they could find out exactly when Wu Mengni and this tycoon started their relationship through her Weibo posts, and even knew which restaurants they ate at and which hotels they slept in.
"Did the female lead from your newspaper resign?" Tang Mi asked with a smile after taking a sip of water from her glass.
Ni Jingxi didn't speak, but Hua Zheng, who was sitting opposite her, immediately said, "No. But she hasn't come to work for several days."
Since going to the police station with the police that day to deal with the issue, Wu Mengni hasn't come to work. It's unclear whether her superiors wanted her to lay low for a while, or if she herself felt ashamed and didn't want to come to the newspaper office.
Tang Mi sighed, "Even people in my WeChat Moments have been asking about it because they know that your newspaper office and our company are in the same building."
There are quite a few gossips in the entertainment industry.
Hua Zheng sighed, "Don't even mention it, the people in our group haven't been able to hold their heads up high these past few days."
Because of Ni Jingxi, Tang Mi and Hua Zheng also got to know each other. They were both girls of similar age and had good personalities, so it was very easy for them to become acquainted.
Tang Mi found it strange and asked, "What's it to you?"
“Our group is the economics group, so we deal with these companies the most. That’s how Wu Mengni met and hooked up with this guy. What do you think other groups will think of us? The single girls in our group are really unlucky,” Hua Zheng said speechlessly.
Wen Tang has been the subject of much discussion these past few days, with some even saying that she hasn't found a boyfriend in so long because she's waiting to catch a big fish.
What angered Hua Zheng the most was that some people said that even though Ni Jingxi is usually quiet and reserved, she might break a big news story one day.
What big news? These people are just hoping to see someone make a fool of themselves.
Tang Mi looked at her sympathetically, then turned to Ni Jingxi and said with a smile, "You're in trouble, Jingxi is alright..."
Anyway, she's not single...
Before she could finish her sentence, Tang Mi felt a sharp pain in her foot. The person next to her kicked her without hesitation.
Instead, Hua Zheng looked up with a face full of curiosity and asked, "How come Jing Xi is alright?"
Ni Jingxi continued eating at a leisurely pace, chopsticks in hand, but a cold smile crept across her lips, making Tang Mi, who was standing to the side, tremble with fear. Her expression seemed to say: "Try to smooth things over, or you'll be dead."
“Jingxi doesn’t care about rumors at all.” Tang Mi had a flash of inspiration and actually pulled her life back from the brink of disaster.
Hua Zheng nodded blankly, and said with great conviction, "Yes, I admire Jing Xi very much."
Her personality is so cool, not in a fake way, but in a genuine way that makes people admire her.
Tang Mi nodded: "Of course, after all, he is our Lord Ni."
As if remembering something, Hua Zheng asked curiously, "Sister Mi, why do you always call Jingxi Lord Ni?"
She had wanted to ask this question for a long time, but she was too embarrassed to ask at first because they weren't very familiar with each other. She finally asked today.
Tang Mi was taken aback, because to be honest, she had been using this title for so long that she had almost forgotten why everyone used to call Ni Jingxi "Lord Ni".
However, the reason she remembered it later was because she attended the wedding of a couple of her high school classmates.
Tang Mi found it funny when she thought about it. She said, "It's because when we were in high school, a girl who sat in front of me and Jingxi liked a boy in our class. This girl was a bit shy and didn't dare to confess, but she was always nice to the boy, so the other boys in our class kept making fun of them."
High school life was very monotonous; it consisted of nothing but exams and studying.
The ambiguous feelings between these boys and girls are like seasonings in a dull life, making life more than just bitterness and astringency.
But those boys in their teenage years can be a bit too much when they make jokes. At first, they just make subtle jokes, but in the end, it gets a little too much.
So much so that the girl was so angry that she lay on the table and cried for the entire PE class.
No matter how other girls tried to comfort her, it didn't work.
To everyone's surprise, the boys didn't stop there. After returning from PE class, they kept asking the boy with a smile why his girlfriend hadn't brought him water that day.
Ni Jingxi, who had been sitting quietly reading, suddenly stood up and turned to walk over to where the boys were gathered.
She stared intently at the group of boys and said coldly, "Is it shameful to like someone?"
