"Director, Miss Li has already explained everything is just a misunderstanding. Aren't you just deliberately trying to make this difficult for me?" The Chief Editor sneered. His disdain and hostility towards his opponent were palpable.

"Or is this because of the news of my recent promotion? Now that I will be working in the same position as you, do you feel threatened by my presence?"

Li Caiyi admired how the man beside her could stay composed under such provocation. If this man really was Shao Jingfei's brother, then wouldn't it mean he was really Shao Junfei, the future President of Glorious Days?

His position in the current timeline appeared much lower than what she used to know. Even so, how could the Chief Editor be so daring to act high and mighty in front of the members of the Shao family?

Either he was too arrogant or simply an idiot!

"Chief Editor, I'm glad to hear your concern, but my opinion about you won't change even if you are still Chief Editor or Director. No matter what, you have frightened Miss Li by suddenly grabbing her. If she wants, she can actually sue you for sexual harassment."

The Chief Editor snorted, clearly not taking his words seriously. "And I can sue you for defamation. Please don't think that you can push me around as you please anymore."

He straightened his back, making his round belly even more protruding. Shao Junfei sighed in exasperation. "If you insist that you are not doing anything wrong, then should we ask the opinion of the third parties about this? Look around you."

The Chief Editor swept her gaze across the lobby, and as Shao Junfei said, some people had gathered due to the commotion they caused. When their eyes met with the Chief Editor, few people averted their eyes from him, but some whispered and chuckled disdainfully among themselves, causing his oily face to burn in shame.

Shao Junfei asked in a pretty loud voice. The fact that no one refuted him and only stared at the Chief Director with eyes full of judgement meant that they agreed the Chief Editor had acted unreasonably.

The older man cared about his face very much. Now that he had finally acquired the desired promotion, he couldn't afford to be degraded by Shao Junfei, who was much younger than him!

"Hmph, why are you making a fuss about something simple like this? Forget it. You don't have to apologize to me."

After spouting those self-righteous remarks, he walked away with a stomp. Even when he retreated, he still wanted to look like he was the one who generously let Shao Junfei go.

Li Caiyi felt even more convinced now that such a person most definitely wouldn't put her book in his eyes even if he got his hand on it. It wasn't her first time meeting with a cunning and opportunistic person like him, so she could tell immediately.

"Are you okay?" Shao Junfei turned to her after the Chief Editor left. His face looked apologetic. "I'm sorry that you have to face such a thing on your first visit today."

Li Caiyi hurriedly raised both of her hands. "No, please don't apologize! It's not your fault at all. And he didn't do anything to me except grab me, so I'm okay."

"Is that so? I'm glad." Shao Junfei smiled slightly, and Li Caiyi couldn't help but think how similar he was to Shao Jingfei.

They shared almost the same face structure, but if she had to point out the difference, it was the eyes probably?

Shao Jingfei's eyes were more cat-like and slanted upward. Whenever he smiled, his eyes would narrow with a glint of mischievousness. Meanwhile, Shao Junfei had puppy dog eyes, which were as pure as a mountain lake.

"But still, thank you very much for speaking for me, Director. I'm Li Caiyi, a new contracted writer in this company." Li Caiyi politely bowed to him, to which he responded with equal respect.

"My name is Shao Junfei. I'm the Director and Jingfei's big brother. But I'm sure you already know that."

"Director Shao, it's a pleasure to meet you."

"Likewise. And I actually already know your name. Jingfei told me a lot about you."

This wasn't the first time she had heard this sentence ever since she entered this place. She wondered just how significant Shao Jingfei's influence was in this place and how many people he told about her.

"One day, he came barging into my office, telling me that he found a rare gem, and he wanted to be the one to polish that gem. He had scouted a lot of talent before this, but that was the first time I ever saw him so enthusiastic about it."

Li Caiyi stroked her nose awkwardly. "I-Is that so? Jingfei is exaggerating it."

"No." Shao Junfei replied decisively. "Jingfei will never exaggerate about something like this. He doesn't look like it, but he always takes his job seriously."

Li Caiyi felt even more embarrassed. "That's true. Jingfei is indeed very capable in what he is doing."

The smile on Shao Junfei's face deepened. He looked proud as if Li Caiyi's complement were meant to him.

"And I actually can vouch for it myself. I have read every work you made so far, including your very first work, the one you submitted for a writing contest. In fact, I was one of the judges at that time."

'Visit (Mybo x novel. com) to read, pls!',

Li Caiyi needed a few moments before she remembered something. That writing contest was sponsored by Glorious Days, so it wouldn't be strange if Shao Junfei probably had his hand on it once. But she didn't expect this person to be one of the judges of that contest.

"I have read a lot of works, but I'm very impressed with your work. I can see why Jingfei is so hung up to immediately take you under our wing. Well, I already thought of inviting you myself, even without his interference."

Li Caiyi had no words to say. It was the biggest compliment she had heard so far, and she couldn't be more flattered.

"Director Shao, please say no more, or you'll make me explode in embarrassment."

Shao Junfei chuckled, seeing her flustered. "I understand. I won't praise you anymore. Come to think of it, do you know that our company will celebrate our anniversary soon? On that day, we used to hold an annual party, where every employee, also contracted authors and artists, gathered. We will also invite several guests from our company partner. Are you interested?"

"This is the first time I ever heard about that." Li Caiyi replied honestly. She was intrigued because this was probably her chance to show herself in front of many talented and influential people in the literary and art world. "I'm very interested!"

If it were the past, the thought of mingling and socializing with many people would be enough to make her tremble in nervousness. But now, she was stronger and more confident.

Not only that, she wanted to prepare for her future well. Luck and hard work alone wouldn't be enough to survive in this competitive world. She learned that hard way.

Li Caiyi had decided she would live for herself this time, so she should take whatever opportunity she could get her hand into.

"If you are interested, do you think you can persuade Jingfei to attend too? That kid is a bit of a troublemaker." Shao Junfei made a troubled look as he said that.
