Chapter 362: Chapter 362 The Righteous and Stern Song Yunuan

Jin Ju squinted her eyes, "Qian Xue, slipping this phrase into the report, I feel something’s not quite right, so I got curious and took a closer look..."

Jin Ju paused then and spoke in a gentle voice, "There’s only one student with the surname Song from the northern provinces, and her name is Song Yunuan, whom I happen to know through Zizhou and Huai’an.

""We get along pretty well. You know I’m selective when it comes to friends. Song Yunuan is so smart, she can truly be called a genius. She didn’t like studying before, but once a smart brain decides to learn, she’s fast—there’s just no stopping that."

""I knew she entered the math contest, and as long as she performs normally, she’s sure to make it to the finals. Qian Xue, I actually admire you. Although we are competitors, we did grow up together, and we even share common ideals. I really don’t understand why there could be such seemingly unfounded words in the article you reviewed. Why didn’t you hold it back?""

Jin Ju laughed, walked over to her, and whispered, "Admit your mistake to the chief editor, don’t let him think you’re mixing personal grievances with public duties. Anna is excellent, and you shouldn’t vent for her like this, right?"

Qian Xue’s face flushed red, her eyes filled with jealousy as she looked at Jin Ju.

That’s just the way this woman is.

Whatever the case, she always comes out on top.

It had always been that way since childhood.

Her family also always liked to compare her to Jin Ju.

Her father said that Jin Ju was born for journalism.

And she would be more suited for a leisurely department.

But she was not convinced.

She could do anything Jin Ju could do, she just needed to be more careful in the future.

After that, she admitted her mistake to the chief editor, whose expression was also grim. Qian Xue’s reviews had always been lacking in diligence. Perhaps she should just stick to film reports and such.

Otherwise, she might easily cause trouble for him.

Because, from what Jin Ju meant, Song Yunuan, Chu Zizhou, and Gu Huai’an all knew each other.

Wasn’t Chu Zizhou from the Chu family just in Nanshan County Town?

With a wave of his hand, he dismissed the two, but not before praising Jin Ju before they left.

Jin Ju modestly smiled, "It’s all thanks to your leadership and precision. I’m still learning from you."

Qian Xue glared at Jin Ju fiercely.

But Jin Ju was not one to fear flattery. Without the chief editor’s final decision, the article about Little Nuan would not have been published.

After all, it was controversial from the start.

The controversy had died down a bit now.

But the comrades at the resource department took it to heart for real.

It’s said they have already started to take action based on the data from above.

She and Qian Xue exited the chief editor’s office together, and after closing the door, Jin Ju’s smile disappeared from her face.

She hooked her mouth at Qian Xue and strode directly towards the east side of the corridor.

Soon she vanished from Qian Xue’s sight.

Qian Xue stamped her feet in anger, yet felt helpless.

But at the same time, she felt really annoyed in her heart.

Anna always handled things very cautiously, but her mood had not been good lately.

Mainly because of Gu Huai’an.

And only lately did she become aware of the existence of Song Yunuan.

She couldn’t quite grasp why the Gu family was so calm; did they truly not care about Song Yunuan?

Maybe that was really the case.

Actually, she just wanted to mess with Song Yunuan; there would be no smoke without fire, if she hadn’t done anything wrong or cheated, why would there be a report letter?

If she wanted to lash out, she could make something out of this issue.

But she should not have written it this way.

She should have changed the wording.

For instance, how to define the authenticity of the scores of students selected from each province’s competitions?

Should we conduct a preliminary assessment before the competition?

After discussing with the relevant staff, the preliminary reports for the math competition can be released.

But Jin Ju caught on to this.

She was humiliated and even got a lecture from the chief editor.

Qian Xue, fuming with anger, went to find Qian Anna.

-----------------

Song Yunuan didn’t know, but even if she did, she wouldn’t care. What does it matter if the article is released?

If she goes to the newspaper office to give them a lesson in ideology, they’ll know her results are real.

Jin Ju wouldn’t tell her about this. However, when they met, she spoke to Song Yunuan with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile, "Recently, the prices of fragrant rosewood and red sandalwood collections in Beidu have gone up five times, and they’re expected to keep rising."

Song Yunuan responded righteously, "Even if the prices don’t rise, ordinary people can’t afford them anyway. It might as well be expensive, the richer they are the better. Some folks have fragrant rosewood furniture at home. I heard that in some rural area, a family sold an 8-seater rosewood table for only five bucks. Everyone is always hoping for a bargain, even if the sellers aren’t wealthy, it’s still frustrating for them.

Now the prices will only get higher. Who knows, some ordinary people might even strike it rich..."

When life is good, the prices naturally rise.

Watching Song Yunuan in her earnest young fashion full of concern for the country and its people, Jin Ju couldn’t help but laugh.

She took Song Yunuan out for a meal.

This time, they ate hotpot with lamb.

The genuine smokeless fruit charcoal, a copper hotpot, and the lamb itself was the best part. This wasn’t Song Yunuan’s first time eating hotpot since arriving in this world, but today’s lamb was exceptionally delicious. Also, the dipping sauce was prepared by Jin Ju. Thinly sliced meats elegantly danced in the pot before being seized by chopsticks, then gently rolled in the dipping sauce and savored in the mouth, the fresh and fragrant taste exploding on the palate.

At the first bite, Song Yunuan’s eyes widened in delight. It was delicious, truly delicious.

This time, she ate until she didn’t feel like moving anymore.

The night obscured the moonlight as streetlamps cast their glow.

Jin Ju rode her bicycle, ready to take Song Yunuan home first.

At the doorstep, Jin Ju suddenly asked Song Yunuan, "You know Xia Xindong, right?"

Song Yunuan was taken aback for a moment then smiled eagerly, "That’s my uncle, Sister Ju, do you know my uncle?"

Jin Ju: "I don’t know him. Recently someone proposed an interview plan that got shelved. It was to interview your uncle, but the chief editor didn’t approve it."

Song Yunuan blinked her eyes: "Sister Ju, do you want to interview my uncle?"

Jin Ju smiled: "I’ve looked into it a bit. He shouldn’t be disturbed."

Song Yunuan looked at Jin Ju, surprised.

Jin Ju’s appearance is deceiving; she seems like a gentle and sweet girl just out of school.

But actually, this is her own year in the Chinese zodiac.

It’s unknown whether she has a boyfriend. Song Yunuan hadn’t asked Gu Huai’an, and there was no information about this in the triggered plot.

But she must be unmarried.

Regardless of whether they’re well married or not, there’s a difference between a married girl and one who’s not.

Song Yunuan took out a fragrant rosewood pen from her pocket and handed it to Jin Ju, a clear light flickered in her eyes: "Sister Ju, this is a small gift for you. Do you like it?"

Jin Ju looked at the pen and said straightforwardly, "I like it."

She genuinely liked it.

There was also a pen case on the outside, which she carefully placed in her crossbody bag.

Then she told Song Yunuan, "Come on, I’ll take you home."

Song Yunuan was about to get on the bike, a bicycle, when Gu Huai’an’s car drove up nearby.

Song Yunuan bent her eyes into a smile.

Jin Ju said, "Looks like you don’t need me..."
