After dinner, Ji Xuan returned to the newspaper office and it was almost time for work in the afternoon.
Yuan Yaoyao was buried in front of the computer to write a manuscript at first, and raised her head when she heard the movement.
"Why did you come here? You don't know how many reasons I have found for you these days. Why did you go?"
Ji Xuan didn't tell Yuan Yaoyao about going to work in the magazine, only that she had something urgent to deal with recently, and asked her to help cover him in front of Zhao.
"I'm really sorry, I will deal with it as soon as possible." Ji Xuan folded her hands and apologized to Yuan Yaoyao very sincerely.
Yuan Yaoyao didn't want Ji Xuan to apologize to her, but wanted to know what had happened that caused her to skip work.
"You obviously promised me that you would tell me something, but now you are hiding it from me. If you do this again, I won't give you cover."
While talking, Yuan Yaoyao secretly paid attention to Ji Xuan's expression from his side, hoping that the agitation method would be effective.
Ji Xuan knew that Yuan Yaoyao was deliberately agitating her, but she still struggled.
To be honest, Yuan Yaoyao helped her a lot during the time she went to work at the newspaper. Before she asked her to help collect evidence between Sheng Zeyan and Liu Yuwei, she also helped her without saying a word.
But in the end, everything was hidden from her, it really didn't make sense.
Ji Xuan wondered a bit in her heart, looked around after having a plan, and then attached it to Yuan Yaoyao's ear, and whispered: "Actually, I am already a contract photographer for the magazine, because the working hours are not fixed. , So this will only happen these days."
After speaking, Ji Xuan looked at Yuan Yaoyao apologetically,
Sister, I’m really sorry, I didn’t tell you earlier, I just don’t know how to tell you.
Yuan Yaoyao opened her mouth, surprised for a while before she recovered.
"This is a good thing, why didn't you say it earlier? And you have to quit the newspaper job, right?"
The contracted photographer and the entertainment journal of the magazine, which one is more important, will know the answer without thinking.
"I won't resign from the newspaper company for now."
"Why?" Yuan Yaoyao was puzzled. She didn't want Ji Xuan to resign. If she could, she certainly hoped that Ji Xuan could stay in the newspaper.
But the current situation seems that Ji Xuan's continued staying in the newspaper is actually a drag on her.
If Ji Xuan quit her job at the newspaper and put her heart on photography, maybe even her own studio could be opened. Compared to Yuji, the prospects are much better.
"I am actually a half-hearted photographer now. If I quit my stable job at the newspaper, then my life will be a problem."
The real reason for staying in the newspaper is that Ji Xuan can't confess to Yuan Yaoyao, and she doesn't know whether she was left because of that incident. In short, it is true that she wants to make more money.
She has to consider the arrangements after she picks up Chai Xiujing, as well as the cost of surgical treatment afterwards, all of which require money.
"Then you have worked so hard now, and after a long time, you will inevitably be discovered." Yuan Yaoyao was a little worried, and then hurriedly declared, "Don't worry, I will definitely not say it, but I am afraid of the situation. You also know how sensitive the master is."
Even if Yuan Yaoyao didn't say it, Ji Xuan knew that there was a problem. It would not last long to rely on Yuan Yaoyao to find an excuse to keep it secret.
"I know, now I can only trouble Senior Sister for your help, I will find a way to solve this problem."
"You don't need to talk about it with me, as long as you develop in the future, don't forget me." Yuan Yaoyao said with a grin.
Ji Xuan couldn't help but laughed, "Of course, no one can forget Senior Sister."
"It's not in vain that I worked so hard to get this for you." Yuan Yaoyao proudly took out a magazine from the drawer and placed it in front of Ji Xuan.
"what is this?"
The magazine looks a bit old, unlike the latest magazine. Ji Xuan picked it up and turned a few pages, and she smelled a musty odor caused by the long storage of the book.
"This is what I found after searching on the old book stand for a long time."
At first Ji Xuan didn't understand what Yuan Yaoyao would do to find such an old magazine. She didn't understand until she opened the magazine and pointed to the person interview column to show her.
The photo of Sheng Zeyan hangs on the magazine page, which is an interview for him.
But what surprised Ji Xuan was not this interview with Sheng Zeyan, but the person who interviewed him turned out to be Xu Mei.
Looking at the photo of Sheng Zeyan that was still a bit young, Ji Xuan couldn't help thinking whether Xu Mei said he knew Sheng Zeyan because of this interview.
Yuan Yaoyao watched Ji Xuan staring at the magazine without saying anything, and generally said, "You don't know how many places I searched to find this magazine, how can you thank me?"
"If you don't want to run the interview in the future, leave it to me."
Yuan Yaoyao was satisfied with Ji Xuan's answer at first, but after thinking about it, she found something wrong.
"Your abacus is too loud. If you want to help me run the interview, I think you just want to sneak out with integrity!"
Yuan Yaoyao took a sip, and Ji Xuan smiled and held her shoulders, "Just kidding, but really, you did help me a lot. How do you want me to thank you?"
"Let me consider it." Yuan Yaoyao pretended to snorted coldly.
"Then you think about it, don't worry."
Ji Xuan patted Yuan Yaoyao on the shoulder, returned to her desk, and began to read the interview with Sheng Zeyan.
The magazine was published five years ago, and the interview time is estimated to be pushed forward. Sheng Zeyan was probably 24 years old at that time.
The appearance of Sheng Zeyan in the photo has not changed much from what it is now, except that the eyebrows are less mature and more green.
But from the perspective of temperament, the changes have been relatively large.
Ji Xuan felt that although the previous Sheng Zeyan seemed overly sharp, it would not be difficult to approach it.
The current Sheng Zeyan had reduced this sharpness, but felt unpredictable when he looked at it, even with a hint of danger.
Is this change because of his hard work over the years?
As far as Ji Xuan knew, Sheng Zeyan's parents seemed to have passed away one after another when he was in college, and she never asked about the specifics.
From this point of view, those days were very hard for Sheng Zeyan, and it is understandable that if one person is to provoke all the burdens of the family, his personality will change.
"Xuan Xuan, Xuan Xuan..."
Yuan Yaoyao suddenly pulled Ji Xuan's clothes from behind, and whispered to her to make her recover from her thoughts.
She just wanted to ask what happened when she saw Lao Zhao standing at her desk, looking at the open magazine.
Ji Xuan's heart was shocked and she subconsciously wanted to put the magazine away, but she was still a step late.
"What are you looking at?"
