Chapter 13 - Office Scandal

 Scandal – the original intention was to point out the immoral behavior of celebrity in show business, it could be with the opposite gender or perhaps same gender.

Office scandal – generally refer to the dubious or ambiguous acts between colleagues or superior and subordinate.

According to the survey done by a specialized agency, in the past few years, work pressure has been increasing as well the fights and scheming against each other which caused employees to feel helpless, office gossip activities have become their favorite and most convenient way to alleviate their work pressure.

9:30am – everything in Shi Shang magazine Group was in good order. The melodious sound of employees typing on the keyboard can be heard loud and clear in the entire office.

When Big Boss saw this, satisfyingly walked into his office while rubbing his stomach, hardly realizing that there's a big event happening.

"Shi Shang Veteran Group" chat

[Editor Can Can] How Can I be here? Who pulled me in?

[Editor Xiao Wei] Asking the same question, how come this morning the moment I open QQ, I had been added to this group? Isn't this group reserved for those veterans who have worked here for more than 5 years?

[Distributor Xiao Zheng] hahahaha... Xiao Wei, the speed of your typing and the speed of your speaking are disproportional.

[Admin Xiao Zhi] Keke... certain comrades, please pay attention, do not conduct personal attacks. Cute MM Can Can, DD Xiao Wei, under the unanimous decision of the veterans, both of you have passed the audition and can join the group!

**(MM:Mei Mei – Little Sister / Younger Sister DD:Di Di – Little Brother / Younger Brother)**

[Distributor Xiao Zheng] since Can Can is so straightforward, we also will ask directly. Then, how come Bai Ning never came into work today? I heard yesterday Bai Ning followed Iceberg Ren to the reception, after that last night didn't the two of them come out from the Kempinski Hotel?

[Admin Xiao Zhi] yeah, I heard President Liu said last night Iceberg Ren was heavily drunk. Could it be that your department's Xiao Ning ... keke... stretched her sex claws again?

[Journalist Lao Xian] today Iceberg Ren came to work, his expression looks considerably ugly!!

[Editor Xiao Wei] ....

[Editor Can Can] .....

[Admin Xiao Zhi] both of you tell us quickly! Did the two of them have JQ last night?

**(JQ: affection)**

[Editor Zi Ru] you guys don't have to guess anymore, today Bai Ning is in sick leave.

[Editor Xiao Wei] The most tragic thing is to lose Company's recording pen and SLR camera. That poor kid, last night got so frightened until when she called Leader that time spoke incoherently.

[Admin Xiao Zhi] Ah...ah... really? Lao Xian, your Leader is so weak, unexpectedly last night after the reception, let the girl go home by herself.

[Distributor Xiao Zheng] the injury won't be a big hindrance, right?

[Journalist Lao Xuan] could it be that this morning Leader was in bad mood, due to self-blaming?

[Editor Xiao Fu] Why did the version that I heard is that last night Ren Han got raped by Bai Ning, a gangster who was passing by couldn't bear to watch anymore, tried to help out, ended up getting raped as well. Bai Ning is now under investigation at the police station?

On the sickbed, I was looking at the chat history, I spurted out a gulp of tea and splattered it all over the place.

Sister Xiao Fu, your cold joke indeed very cold.

Actually, there only one actual fact out of three versions. Last night, I sent Ren Han back, indeed on the way back to home, I encountered a very minor mishap.

The place where I currently live is a unit of a tube-shaped apartment which was allocated to my father from his family. After going through trials and hardships for more than 20years, it is already was on the verge of collapsing. Those who can move out, have already moved away.

Therefore, the alley is always eerie during the night. On top of that, the Neighbourhood Committee has repeatedly been promoting conserving the electricity usage, so every night at 10 pm, the streetlights in the alley entrance will be turned off in response to their requests.

So, last night when I was at the abyss of the alley, I was fortunate enough to come across a wretched-looking tramp known as a gangster, but even though he is a gangster, obviously this man is a newbie. Firstly, he didn't bring along a shiny dagger, instead on his hand it was a wooden stick that seemed like it had been nibbled by a dog; secondly, in such good moonlight, with such a good atmosphere, and such a beautiful girl standing in front of him, he actually just wanted to rob money and not rape.

Thus even though I was scared, this Young Miss was somewhat a little angry because of the thought of in case the SLR camera got robbed and once again I will have to eat instant noodles for one more year. And with this in mind, I tried to be brave and picked up some courage to flung the handbag that was in my hand. I decided to die and to resist and not to let him get his way.

Upon seeing this, the newbie gangster was somewhat anxious, raised up his wooden stick and right away came over to attack.

Getting dragged down, I did to kick and threw some punches, right away overpowered the gangster ..... heck, it was impossible. In fact, when I tried to kick and throw some punches, and due to my high-heeled shoe, I tumbled down onto the ground when the newbie gangster bumped into me. And I was aching from head to toe.

Seeing that his wooden stick was about to beat up my body, I faster shout loudly:

"Ultraman !! Ultraman !! Faster come out and beat the little Monster!!"

"Ha??"

The newbie gangster was dumbfounded, didn't have the time to respond yet, from the tube-shaped apartment had already transmitted out a very loud barking sound. In no time, a gentle and cute Teddy Poodle dashed out and directly pounced onto the newbie gangster.

"Bark!! Bark!! Bark!!"

"Ultraman, bite!! Bite harder!! Beat the little Monster and when we go home I'll give you dog biscuits to eat!"

"Anybody ah... please help to catch a thief ah !!"

In a moment, the tube-shaped apartments were brightly lit up.

"Seize the baby thief !!"

"Beat !!"

"Bark!! Bark!! Bark!!"

Thus, I've successfully defeated the newbie gangster with the help of my gentle, clever and quick-witted Ultraman's heroic pounce and bites, as well as the whole neighborhood raising up their broomsticks and kitchen knives and rushing up to the battle.

Afterwards, I made a summary for this victory:

1. Relationship in the neighborhood must be handled well, otherwise, no one will save you during critical times.

2. Dogs, even if it is the most gentle and affectionate poodle, also have to teach them the skill of biting bad guy.

3. It's better to let the dog roam freely. At that time when I thought that I had to go to work everyday, I felt sorry that Ultraman will have to get shut in the house, feeling lonely and pitiful. To compensate for my error, on my main door I installed a small pet door for it to go out and come in so that during daytime it can freely go out to play around the neighborhood. And this error compensation had saved me.

At this moment, I was at home sitting on my bed, while drinking black tea and playing computer, I was happily rewarding Ultraman with dog biscuits.

Looking at the unending copy of chat history that Can Can sent, the corner of my mouth can't help but raise.

Gossip, go ahead and gossip, the more you guys gossip about this matter, it will spread like a wildfire in the company, and I'll be more than happy. This is really a blessing in disguise, hahahaha!!!

1st welfare: I went home late because I had to attend the wine reception, that also means I went home late due to an additional night shift. And because of this, such an incident happened, the company more or less will have to give out compensation payment for the injury, mental stress, medical fee as well as compensation for keeping my mouth shut. This few compensations added up together obviously will be very very helpful to me who this month is barely left with ¥50 as living expenses. So when this incident happened, the first thing I did was to make a phone call, act weak and ask for sick leave.

2nd welfare: Big Boss wanted to transfer me into the Journalism Department, Ren Han that Cheap Passive as my future Boss, again and again, plotting against me, wanting to give me trouble. Will I be so stupid? To leave the amiable Editorial Department and go to Journalism Department? Of course not. So I deliberately made mistakes, accidentally lost the company's SLR camera and voice recorder, as well as ..... all the interview scripts, recording materials and photos of the last night wine reception.

In this way, I naturally can't get promoted but also can use this sick leave to keep myself away from Cheap Passive Ren Han. One stone killing two birds, Big Boss will feel embarrassed and he wouldn't have the idea to transfer me out from Editorial Department anymore.

As for me telling Leader, claiming that I have lost the SLR camera, it doesn't matter. Wait for a few more days after everything quiets down, I will then return the camera and say that it's a new purchase.

In conclusion, the more I thought about it, the more I felt that I had gained a benefit out of it, so this morning when I woke up, might as well, straight away feign illness and wait for the company to send over Leader and the rest to come and bring over the compensation.

I remembered that there won't be any salary deduction for work-related sick leave. Haha .... this is great... extremely great !! God is also helping me !!

In here, while I was thinking over the moon, I heard someone knocking the door. In a split second, I rushed out with great joy to open the door, "Can Can, Leader, you guys have come, I really miss —"

"You guys" I did not finish say out these two words before I lost all my power the moment the door was opened.

At first, Ultraman was nibbling the bone biscuits, the moment it heard the sound of movement, it also rushed out to the door with sudden big strides forward. It was eager to pounce on the guest and act like a spoiled child, but in a split second, it got taken aback back by the cold low-pressure aura that was produced by the gorgeous man outside the door.

"How come it's you, boss....."

Outside the door, the handsome and charismatic VP Ren slightly narrowed his eyes and sneered dangerously: "Not bad... for being hit by a gangster, you still have so much energy."

Why ... is it that the one that is sending over the compensation money turns out to be Huang Shi Ren?

He shouldn't be thinking of directly detaining my compensation money, right?

Ultraman, this big Monster, do you dare to bite him and chase him out?
