âBut itâs a good thing we got a new boss, at least now Fatty Fish canât exploit us by pulling rank as the lady bossâs relative anymore.â
After hearing her, Chi Enen also thought it was a good thing and she curled up the corner of her mouth, adding, âThe most important thing is, the salary has gone up.â
With a higher salary, she could save some money for when Baby Chi goes to primary school. She could also buy Baby Chi a few more sets of clothes, shoes. As for the boss changing, thatâs for the company executives to worry about. For a shrimp like her, it didnât matter who the boss was.
âYouâre all about salary, salary. Itâs like youâve got your eyes set only on money. Oh right, your Baby Chi yesterdayâ¦â Qin Nan was about to have a casual chat with her.
Suddenly, a noise accompanied by an annoying voice followed.
âMiss Xie, be careful, the floor is slippery.â
This voice, Chi Enen had heard for nearly three months, and she didnât need to see the person to know who it wasâFatty Fish!
Sure enough, a skinny and sleazy figure appeared. He was probably in his mid- forties, so lean that his clothes hung loose on him, yet his head was a bit bigger than the average personâs, making him look like an oversized chin. He looked comical, like a toothpick skewered with a potato.
At this moment, he was obsequiously guarding a tall beauty adorned in luxury goods, who walked in pinching her nose as if there were some kind of virus inside, her face full of contempt as she complained, âWhy are there so many people?â
âUhâ¦â Her question was so bizarre that even Fatty Fish, skilled in flattery, was stunned for a moment before responding carefully, âWorking hours are about to start, everyoneâs come in, so there are more people. Would Miss Xie like to sit in my office for a while? My office is more spacious.â
Xie Tingting furrowed her brows and haughtily lifted her chin, âI donât have that International Time. Which show is your radio stationâs most listened to? Take me there.â
âMiss Xie, please follow me.â
Fatty Fish lead her to where Chi Enen and Qin Nan were standing and, with a fawning tone, introduced, âThis is our radio stationâs show with the highest listenership, with the emcee and screenwriter director.â
Turning his head, he instantly changed his expression, urging impatiently, âEnen, Nan, say hello to Miss Xie.â
Qin Nan and Chi Enen had no idea which âMiss Xieâ he was referring to, but not wanting to cause trouble, they perfunctorily greeted her.
Xie Tingting, who was usually coddled and treated with utmost care, could not fail to notice the insincerity from Qin Nan and Chi Enen. Immediately filled with anger, wanting to lash out but mindful of the crowd, she restrained herself, though her face showed her displeasure as she flung a stack of papers at Chi Enen.
âTake it, I want you to do an interview with me. These are the terms, and you better read each one carefully; I donât want any questions Iâm not willing to answer.â
The tone of this top-down command was uncomfortable to hear.
Chi Enen frowned slightly without taking them, her gaze turning to Fatty Fish beside her as she said, âBig Boss, weâre an Interactive Fun Show, suddenly switching to an interview doesnât seem quite right, does it?â
Fatty Fish of course knew it wasnât right, but his current priority was to ingratiate himself with the influential figureâs lover. Unable to concern himself with that, he immediately darkened his face and scolded in a low voice, âIf I tell you to do it, you do it!â
Chi Enen really wanted to throw the papers in his face and say she quit, but remembering the imminent salary increase and her precious son at home waiting to be fed, she clenched her teeth, forced a smile, took the papers that Xie Tingting handed over, and said, âI understand.â
