Chapter 17.3 - Tiger's Back

 After sustaining injuries, Ren Han took two days leave from work before returning. Although there was no movement from Ren Han's side and the Chief did not seem to know about the novel, but I am also feeling more uneasy. GV, the web novel, misappropriating the company camera, owing a debt of ¥10,000...Right now, are all in Ren Han's hands, he has all my vulnerable points. Moreover, regardless of which vulnerable point, any one of them can cause to meet a tragic end.

Therefore, I, no matter what must calmly and silently endure the difficulty of Ren Han's oppression. Next month's topic meeting is drawing closer and closer, although Ren Han has not said anything, I understand the reason that he is presently hiding the truth from my department chief and the company is to control me.

Without even saying, this debt list is extremely painful for me.

On the desk, I was holding my head anxiously, when I heard the sound of cough behind me. I, CanCan, Xiao Wei and sister Xiao Fu raised up our heads.

The Chief, Li Zi Ru stood in the doorway of his office, wearing his gold-rimmed eyeglasses, with a white suit shirt and patterned blue tie, this simple attire on him always exudes a distinct pressure when on him, "Children, we have one week left before we send the material to printing."

The people were silent and did not speak.

The Chief smiled even more evilly and dragged out his words, "So...I need all your final drafts on my desk by 8:00 am."

After he finished, CanCan was the first to speak up hastily, "Ah? Chief, no way right? I still have a 20,000 word draft that I haven't finished!!"

The chief smiled and adjusted his glasses and innocently said, "Haven't I given you a night's time?"

CanCan broke down and Xiao Wei patted her shoulder while he bowed his head in sympathetic tears.

Sister Xiao Fu lit a cigarette and crossed her legs: "Zi Ru, don't be too excessive, I also have 20p of stuff to sort through. The journalism department has also not submitted their drafts."

The Chief smiled: "That is naturally your responsibility to chief-editor, I have no right to interfere. The journalism department is dragging out handing in their work, then according to the company rules for a delay of one hour is ¥100 penalty, as for your responsibility, late handover of edited drafts per one hour is ¥200, understand how to do it? Hm?"

After he finished speaking to me, the chief turned his head to look at me, I immediately shrunk, "Understood!"

Fortunately, for this issue, the work I have on my hands is not a lot, a night, should not be an issue.

"Hehe" The Chief's laugh made my hair stand up, "What do you understand? Bai Ning, come into my office."

I hesitantly got up, every month around this time, is the chief's most irritable and harsh period, it's similar to a woman's mothly cycle. Therefore, normally right before the magazine release, we all know to evade him and definitely do not approach his office.

But at this moment, the chief summoned me to go to his office, suddenly and alone?!!

I gulped and silently prayed as I entered the chief's office and sat down, did not dare to raise my head and timidly said, "Chief, what matter did you ask to see me for?"

"Haha, don't be anxious, it's a private matter."

Li Zi Ru saying this made me even more anxious, I could not control my cold sweat.

"What- what private matter?"

The chief handed me a cup of water and thought then said, "I heard you plan to get married to Xiao Han?"

Poof-

I spurted out the water that was in my mouth.

"My younger sister also bought you a camera as a congratulatory gift, right?

Puff -

This time, I could no longer hold onto the cup, so dropped it and scratched the corner of my mouth and awkwardly said, "Sister? Is it not that, Li something..." Hey, wait, Li Zi Shuang, Li Zi Ru, these two names -

My shoulders shrank, I wished I could find a way to open up the ground and escape, is this not bad luck? With great difficulty, I was able to extort out money, but I ended up blackmailing the chief's younger sister? I had heard loudspeaker, Xiao Zheng say that the chief's parents died early, it was he who then became the father and brother and raised his younger sister. The reason he has not gotten married up till now is because of this younger sister who he treasures to death. 

Because he cannot feel at ease until his sister has gotten married herself, so Li Zi Ru has decided that after his sister gets married then he will consider his own future. From this, anyone can see that the chief his sister is of utmost importance, and now, I have unexpectedly stepped on the tiger's back, (>_<)...

What kind of world is this?

I held in the urge to cry and had an ugly nervous smile and cautiously asked, "That...that Miss Li Zi Shuang is your sister?"

The chief smiled, "Miss? I heard that on that day you called her auntie when you were with Ren Han."

I was embarrassed and speechless.

I was prepared to grab onto him and repent, the boss deviously smiled and said, "Ah, you don't have to be too nervous, speaking of which, I would also like to thank you."

"Ha?" I was dumbfounded, I conned your sister out of over ¥10,000 and you would like to thank me?

The chief folded his hands on her chest, "Bai Ning, you've probably seen it, my silly sister likes Ren Han. But you've also seen that Xiao Han is unlikely to reciprocate, even if he has refused her many times, this child has refused to give up, this time, finally - "

I was astonished, "An I so good at acting? She really believed that I am Ren Han's...*cough*  real fiancee?"

The chief smiled and shook his head, "Bai Ning, do you under what situation a woman is most likely to give up in?"

"What situation?"

The chief grinned, "Women that hold on so tightly that even in the death will not let go, 80% of it is out of vanity, always feeling that if they don't obtain it, they will be unreconcilable. Xiao Han this time was very smart, to look for such a low-grade fiancee, my sister at first glance, immediately realized that this man is not so good, and his eyes are even worse. Since she is a hundred times better than is his future wife, she will feel that her value will instantly drop if she continues to pursue him, so - -"

The chief shrugged his shoulders and had a helpless expression. Upon seeing this scene, I was stunned.

So, I made a big contribution?

Saying it like this, so Ren Han is still using me to succeed?

With that being said, the chief in a roundabout way just insulted me that I am much worse than white powder auntie.

o(╯□╰)o Grandma, this scolding!

The boss coughed and changed the topic: "So, I will not pursue this matter. However, my sister gave you a wedding present, you should return it, right?"

After he said, my eyes widened, and I suddenly remembered a very very serious problem: It seems that day when I sent young master Ren home, I put the camera in his house and forgot to take it, ah!! Now how can I still get it back?!!
