Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief Novel - Chapter 1362
Chapter 1362: What a Big Fat Lie
He had to let his little junior know the situation beforehand so that she could be prepared. “I heard from master about your situation. Actually, you have a better starting point than others and you have a lot of support. If you are lacking in this area, I suggest you go through training. The power struggle in that social circle could be quite vicious.”
One had to do serious homework.
As long as one was mindful and hardworking, there were plenty of chances to do preparations.
“Senior, thank you. I understand what you mean.” Qiao Nan, who had been bullied her entire life, doubted that she could do it when Lin Yuankang first told her of the future that he had planned for her. She was not certain whether she was up to it. If she was really in that position, and there were conflicts of interest, Qiao Nan had to prevent herself from being bullied and bullying other people.
“What Deng Wenchang said to me was good training for me. Senior, I am not as weak as you think.” If she felt humiliated by Deng Wenchang’s words and left on her own accord, she would have died umpteen times when she was being bullied in her previous life. She would have gone through multiple times of rebirth.
Now that she was clear about the situation, Qiao Nan felt much more confident about herself. “Senior, if there’s nothing else, I will go out now. Otherwise, the person who is targeting me may criticize me for wasting away my time instead of working.”
“Sure, you can go out now. If there’s anything else, I will let you know.” He Yi was glad that his little junior decided to persist on. On the contrary, if she could no longer take it, given his ability, he would be able to get her another position elsewhere.
But then again, He Yi was reminded of the position of Qiao Nan’s husband and her father-in-law. He smiled as he shook his head.
Given the Zhai family’s status and position, the little junior had lots of openings even without his help.
She was a winner in life.
As soon as the door to the office was opened, Deng Wenchang’s sharp gaze landed on Qiao Nan, scanning every inch of her like the X-ray. He paid particular attention to her clothing, her collar, as well as the hemline of her blouse around her waist.
Although Qiao Nan wore a suit, she wore long pants instead of a skirt. Otherwise, he would stare at the hemline of her skirt and her stockings to check whether there were any tears or whether she looked disheveled.
Deng Wenchang suspected that Qiao Nan got in through the back door and that she used special methods to join the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Deng Wenchang tried very hard to find out who was so audacious to have an indecent relationship with Qiao Nan, and because of that, allowed such a useless person like her to be in an important department like the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Initially, Deng Wenchang could not find any information on this. With Peng Yu’s help, He Yi became one of his suspects.
Deng Wenchang was dealt with a harsh blow after finding out that He Yi was the boss he was looking for. It was no wonder that no matter how he sucked up to He Yi, he refused to take him in as his disciple, and he took Qiao Nan in when he was doing his internship. It turned out that He Yi arranged for Qiao Nan to join the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to compete with him.
After discovering this, Deng Wenchang hated He Yi to the core. He felt disgusted that he addressed He Yi as ‘uncle’ for the past twenty years.
He was an old man who let lust befuddled his mind.
People like He Yi who did not cherish talent did not deserve to be his master. He Yi might not want to take in a disciple, but in fact, he had no wish to take a scum like him as his master.
He Yi called Qiao Nan into his office without an apparent reason. This made Deng Wenchang all the more suspicious. There was nothing to hide from the rest. If not for the indecent relationship between the two, why did Qiao Nan close the door so that their conversation would not be overheard when she entered his office?
Perhaps, once the door was closed, the man and woman would be up to no good in the office.
Deng Wenchang felt that it was reasonable of him to suspect them. He was most likely accurate about them.
Therefore, Deng Wenchang fixed his sharp gaze on Qiao Nan. He could not wait to see through every pore of her. Once he spotted any clues, he would be able to prove that she had an ambiguous relationship with He Yi. He would choose to side with reason without any hesitation and rid the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of such a scum like He Yi.
It was no longer suitable for him to be the minister. Why did he insist on being the minister? He was making use of his position to be hard upon talents like him.
Deng Wenchang stared intently at Qiao Nan, but he could not find any oddities with her clothes. Qiao Nan looked the same as how she was when she entered the office.
Her clothes were tidy and her hair was neat. She looked normal. She did not have the blush on her face that was typical after one had been intimate with another person.
Deng Wenchang was certain that there was nothing odd about Qiao Nan. Deng Wenchang had to hand it to the sly old fox. He must be smart to stay at the Minister of Foreign Affairs for so many years. No matter what, he would not be so anxious to be intimate with the other party in his office. If he wanted to catch them red-handed, he had to wait until they knocked off or when they were not working.
He would not let this slide easily.
He must get hold of the evidence that He Yi had an indecent relationship with Qiao Nan and expose it to everyone, proving to them that Qiao Nan had no right to join the department.
Qiao Nan had yet to graduate from college. Deng Wenchang only had contempt and disdain for her.
Qiao Nan was accustomed to the fact that Deng Wenchang looked at her as if she was trash. However, no matter how accustomed she was, she still felt unhappy.
“Comrade Deng, after looking through my materials, did you notice any errors?” It was true that Deng Wenchang was creating trouble for Qiao Nan, but Qiao Nan had decided that now that she was back at the department again, she would do the same to Deng Wenchang as well. She wanted to make life difficult for him so that he would not be officially employed by the ministry.
Deng Wenchang ground his teeth, smiling grimly at Qiao Nan. “Comrade Qiao must be joking. I am kept busy the entire day and there is so much work in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. I have to devote all my time to my work. I don’t even have time to complete them and I have to continue working at home. How will I have the time to look at your work? Comrade Qiao, take them back with you. In the future, it is better that you don’t give me this. It takes up a lot of space and it is very heavy to carry around.”
It was a waste of space and energy.
“Oh, I see.” Qiao Nan arched her eyebrows, revealing a cynical smile. She did not believe a single word that Deng Wenchang said.
