The Uncrowned King of the Peninsula

Chapter 39 You Look Like a Good Person
Things have changed, and the person that President Lin is most popular with is no longer Zhao Dongxu.

"Editor-in-Chief Pei, you're amazing. You managed to catch Park Ji-cheol. Otherwise, who knows how much information he would have sold." The people next to him sighed.

"That's right, damn it! My last news was snatched away by D agency. Did this bastard sell it out to me?" Someone gritted his teeth as he recalled what happened before.

"That's right, I've had that happen to me too, bastard. I really wanted to kick him."

"We have to thank Editor-in-Chief Pei, right?" Zhang Jiyuan leaned close to Pei Yongjun, his eyebrows beaming with joy.

Having just said a few words to smooth things over for Pei Yongjun, he felt proud now, and felt that he was on Pei Yongjun's side. "Why don't you find a time to thank him? Let's get together later. How about that? I'll arrange it!"

"Hey, editor-in-chief? Editor-in-chief-nim." Someone whispered, "Jiyuan, you called me the wrong name."

Everyone laughed.

"Thank you all. Of course we should get together, but not today. The president might have something else to do. I'll arrange it another day." Pei Yongjun smiled, neither humble nor arrogant, which made everyone amazed.

"Yes, yes, let's do it another day."

"I'll do it, I'll do it!" The crowd gradually dispersed, and Zhang Jiyuan, with a red face, competed with them for the task of organizing the party.

At the door of the conference room, only Pei Yongjun and Thick Liu who was standing silently beside him were left.

"Editor-in-Chief, nim," she looked up at Pei Yongjun, then immediately lowered her head, twisting her hands together and twisting her fingers. "I'm sorry, thank you."

Pei Yongjun looked at her carefully for the first time.

She was short, with a petite face and long black hair, and looked pretty. However, her thick bangs covered half of her face, and her expression was always timid, making her look like a timid quail.

She was crying her heart out just now, and now her face is covered with tear marks, half dry, making her look pitiful and ridiculous.

The suit jacket was a little loose, hanging down from both sides of her petite shoulders. He couldn't tell whether it was a men's or women's jacket. There was a splash of coffee on her chest, making her look extremely poor.

She didn't wear any ornaments. Her earrings were probably cheap artificial crystals, and she had a cheap off-white plastic bracelet on her smooth wrist.

The hands are very beautiful.

Pei Yongjun looked at her delicate hands that were almost twisted into caterpillars.

Noticing his gaze, Thick Liu subconsciously loosened his hands, then nervously tugged at the hem of his suit, making the already ill-fitting jacket appear even longer.

"Come with me." Pei Yongjun said, turned and walked along the corridor to the office of the social news group.

"Oh." Thick Liuhai followed him obediently, step by step.

As soon as he entered the office, Liu Chengzhu came up to him with an excited look on his face, "Team leader? Park Zhiche was fired? Is this true?"

"Really." Pei Yongjun nodded.

"Really? Hahaha!" He waved his fist excitedly, "This bastard is finally gone!"

"what happened?"

"I'll tell you later. Go to the editing team first and call their team leader."

"Call him?" Liu Chengzhu was stunned.

Pei Yongjun is also a team leader, so it seems inappropriate to call the editor-in-chief.

"You'll know when you go there."

"Um, okay." Liu Chengzhu nodded, agreed, turned and left.

"Team leader."

"Team leader."

Kim Ji-sung and Cha Eun-kwang also stood up to greet them. The latter's expression remained unchanged, while the former looked slightly excited, and it seemed that he was very happy about Park Ji-cheol's downfall.

But behind the team leader is...

Jin Zhicheng looked at his thick bangs with tear marks on his face and was confused.

Pei Yongjun walked into the office and looked at the thick bangs standing at the door, "Come in."

"Okay, Editor-in-Chief." She walked into the office, not knowing what to do, so she just stood there blankly, secretly observing the furnishings in the room. Pei Yongjun walked behind the desk and opened the drawer, where the last remaining envelope lay.

He took it out and placed it on the table.

"Here, it's yours."

"Mo?" Thick Liu Hai was startled. "What, what is this?"

"bonus."

"bonus?"

"You have a share of the news too."

"Me? I didn't do anything. I haven't told you what happened that night yet. I almost messed up everything." Thick Bangs waved her hands in panic. She had never thought about the bonus.

"You did a great job not telling Park Ji-cheol the news." Pei Yongjun looked at her with his dark eyes. "You're very brave. You deserve it."

"Here, buy yourself some proper clothes and stop wearing this."

"Editor-in-chief, nim..." Looking at Pei Yongjun's calm face, she, who had stopped crying for a while, suddenly felt her nose sore again and tears fell all at once, "I'm sorry, I've always wanted to tell you, but, but I didn't dare..."

She couldn't stop crying.

"Editor Park said if anyone knew about this, he would kick me out. I was terrified."

"I finally found this internship. It was so hard. I'm sorry..."

"Really sorry……"

She sobbed and cried.

------

Pei Yongjun said nothing and just watched her cry quietly.

After a while, her crying gradually subsided, and Pei Yongjun pushed the tissue box on the table across the table.

"If you're afraid, don't act alone. Remember to tell me next time something like this happens."

"Wipe it."

"Yes, editor-in-chief nim." She took out two tissues, wiped her tears, and gradually stopped sobbing.

"Why don't you say it?" Pei Yongjun looked at her big eyes under her bangs, and then he discovered that there was a tiny teardrop mole at the corner of her eye.

"We took a very expensive taxi, but you didn't scold me. I felt like you were a nice person, so, so I didn't say anything." She said in a low voice.

Pei Yongjun suddenly laughed, "Oh, I bribed you with just a taxi?"

"It's, it's very good. There are very few people like you. I was often scolded before." Thick Liuhai said bravely.

Her eyes met Pei Yongjun's handsome and thick eyebrows, and she suddenly remembered the scene in the conference room just now when he frowned and stopped Park Zhiche.

The editor-in-chief’s eyebrows are quite nice.

Her heart suddenly trembled and her thoughts began to run wild.

"Is it because of this?" Pei Yongjun continued to ask.

"And," Thick Bangs said honestly, "that's before Goo Hara..."

"Goo Hara xi is so pitiful. She was injured so badly. I felt that Editor Park was not a good person, so I didn't tell him. What if he said something wrong? I feel so sorry for Goo Hara xi."

"Do I look like a good person?" Pei Yongjun asked.

"Yeah, it looks like it." She chuckled, her eyebrows curved, and tiny tears hanging on her eyelashes. She looked pitiful and cute.
