Chapter 48 - Politics and Business Are Not a Family

With a call from Chief Editor Zhou, Shen Youran and Qiu Shaoze were ordered to his office, and he asked about the progress of the interview with Mayor He.

The two of them looked at each other before Qiu Shaoze said in a crestfallen tone, “Mayor He is very stubborn and refuses to accept our interview. You better switch to someone else.”

Chief Editor Zhou looked at both of them and said, “Qiu Shaoze, you are the backbone of the editorial department, and you have a serious attitude during work so I always have faith in you. Youran, you are good at interpersonal relationships, so both of you are the best people suited to interview Mayor He.”

When they left the Chief Editor’s office, Qiu Shaoze scratched his head in despondence and asked Shen Youran, “What kind of interpersonal relationships do you have?”

In the whole magazine society, only Chief Editor Zhou knew that she was the young missy of the Shen Corporation.

If it was someone else, they would definitely be proud of being the young missy of the Shen Corporation, but she refused to say a single word about her identity.

She casually said, “I just know a few bosses from the corporate world.”

Qiu Shaoze widened his eyes. Just? That was already very impressive!

No wonder that with just a call from her, someone brought them into the resort.

He continued to ask, “Who do you know? Are they familiar with Mayor He? Can you use your relationship with them and tell them to help us ask a few questions so we can complete this interview mission?”

Shen Youran packed the document files on the table. “Politics and business do not belong to the same family.”

After they got off work, Shen Youran ate her dinner at a restaurant near the magazine agency before taking a cab to the hotel.

When she reached the hotel, it was not even six o’clock yet. Ji Jinchuan had not arrived, and since it was still early, she took a bath first.

After she walked out of the bathroom, she was bored, so she turned the television on and opened a bottle of wine that she took from the bar. She poured half a glass of wine and drank as she waited for him.

When she was really bored, she started to swipe through Weibo. As time passed by, her patience became thinner and thinner.

When Ji Jinchuan arrived at the hotel, it was already close to nine o’clock. He opened the room door with his room card and saw that the room was in a state of darkness. He furrowed his brows and turned the lights on before someone hugged him from behind.

From behind him, a grumbling yet coquettish voice drifted to his ears. “Why did you come so late?”

He tugged his tie and pried her hands off his waist. He took off his coat and threw it on the sofa. When he turned back, he saw that her face was flushed red and smelled the alcoholic scent on her before glancing at the wine bottle and glasses left on the table.

“Your alcohol tolerance is not bad.” The wine bottle was almost empty.

As she was drunk, her cheeks were puffed red while her eyes were glazed over, which gave a hint of allure. She said with a smile, “I used to be bad at drinking so I trained it by drinking every day when I was in California.”

Her eyes were coquettish and looked crystal-clear under the lights. It was black and shiny like a diamond crystal.

Ji Jinchuan took off his watch and placed it on the table before entering the bathroom to take a bath. Suddenly, she hugged him from behind. “Bathe later.”

He had not said anything and she had already circled to his front before tiptoeing and kissing him on the lips.

He became dominant upon finding that her mouth was filled with the taste of the red wine mixed with her sweetness. It made one become even more intoxicated with her.

After it ended, Shen Youran used his shoulder as a pillow. Her whole body sagged down as she was too tired to even move.

“Bam.” Ji Jinchuan lit a cigarette, and he took a drag before puffing out smoke. He lightly said, “On the following day, Madam Xue is going to hold a charity fundraiser event. Mayor He is going as well.”

Undoubtedly, this was him indirectly telling her about He Zimin’s whereabouts, and her black eyes became even brighter…
