"Next, we hope you will cooperate with our investigation. The station also hopes to find out the truth as soon as possible and clear your name. Of course, your position will remain unchanged. The investigation will be conducted privately, and we cannot let this affect everyone's enthusiasm for work."

"However, if you really have a problem, the station won't show any leniency."

Chen Ruoxi said earnestly, "Director Liu, I have done nothing wrong and am not afraid of an investigation. I will cooperate fully and will not bring shame to the station."

Deputy Director Liu nodded: "Good, your attitude is very correct. If there are no problems, the station will clear your name."

Then, her tone shifted: "That intern, Yang Jiaqi, also has problems listening to you."

Chen Ruoxi said, "There must be a problem. If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have contacted this advertiser."

Deputy Director Liu nodded thoughtfully: "Then include her in the investigation. If there is any problem, the station will not tolerate it."

Chen Ruoxi's face lit up with joy: "Thank you, Director Liu."

Deputy Director Liu checked the time: "Alright, you can go back now. Someone will be looking for you, and you'll need to cooperate with the investigation. Trust me, the station won't let a bad person get away with it, but it also won't wrong an innocent person."

Chen Ruoxi nodded seriously: "Don't worry, Director Liu, I will definitely cooperate fully."

Deputy Director Liu waved his hand, and Chen Ruoxi breathed a sigh of relief before leaving the office. She touched her forehead; she hadn't noticed it before, but now it was covered in cold sweat.

She didn't want to experience being wrongly accused and framed, and being investigated by the station, a feeling she didn't want to have a second time.

Back at her workstation, Chen Ruoxi felt increasingly resentful. She had to get revenge and clear her name, or she would be finished and lose her job.

Based on the clues from the anonymous email and my own deductions.

First, there's the Sitop Group; they're definitely behind this. Second, there's Yang Jiaqi, working for her and then betraying her by introducing her to such an advertising agency. She couldn't believe Yang Jiaqi was completely unaware of their true intentions.

There was another person named Tang Xiaohua, who was said to be Yang Jiaqi's elementary school classmate. She was the one who managed to secure this advertising deal. Chen Ruoxi had met her a few times and immediately recognized that she was a kindred spirit.

She knows this type of person best: selfish, self-serving, and willing to do anything to climb the social ladder.

He had no doubt that Tang Xiaohua was behind this.

Such people should naturally be retaliated against fiercely, and the media should be used to crush them so they can never recover.

Chapter 260 Blame and Argument

It was almost lunchtime when Yang Jiaqi returned from an interview outside with a microphone in hand. She looked perfectly normal, as if nothing had happened.

Chen Ruoxi suddenly realized that she had underestimated Yang Jiaqi. Yang Jiaqi was just naturally talented and quick to learn. She had only been with Yang Jiaqi for a short time, but she had already surpassed Yang Jiaqi.

Chen Ruoxi suppressed her anger and knocked on her workstation: "Come with me."

Turning to walk towards the small conference room next door, Yang Jiaqi paused for a moment, her face showing some tension. She took a few deep breaths and silently followed.

The two entered the small conference room, and Chen Ruoxi closed the door tightly, her face immediately darkening.

"Yang Jiaqi! Yang Jiaqi, you're really capable. You've only been with me for a short time, but you've learned so quickly."

Yang Jiaqi pretended to be confused.

"Sister Xi, what are you saying? I don't understand."

Chen Ruoxi sneered, "Stop pretending. I know what kind of person you are. You look like a pure white lotus on the outside, but your ambition is no less than anyone else's."

"Tell me, what's going on?"

Yang Jiaqi still looked dazed.

"Sister Xi, what are you talking about? I don't understand."

Chen Ruoxi snorted: "Playing dumb, huh? Fine, then I'll ask you."

Who is Tang Xiaohua?

Yang Jiaqi said, "She was my elementary school classmate, you know that."

Chen Ruoxi pressed on, "Is it really just a primary school classmate? What is her current status? Where does she work? What is her position?"

Yang Jiaqi gave Chen Ruoxi a deep look, hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "She's just like us, an employee. She should be working at Sitop Group, I think she's some kind of secretary."

Chen Ruoxi's face turned pale, then suddenly flushed red. First, a chill rose in her heart, then anger flared up.

She and the Sitop Group are now at odds, but she unknowingly got close to Sitop Group's secretary. They not only had a pleasant conversation, but the secretary also introduced her to advertisers. She foolishly jumped into the trap.

This sent chills down Chen Ruoxi's spine.

However, Yang Jiaqi, knowing full well about her relationship with Sitop Group, still introduced her to Tang Xiaohua, concealing the fact that Tang Xiaohua was Sitop Group's secretary.

It's hard to believe Yang Jiaqi doesn't understand the implications of this situation. If she does understand, then her true intentions are not difficult to guess.

This intern, who had been under her tutelage for several months and was also her boyfriend's cousin, truly opened her eyes today. She learned very little of the good, but picked up all the bad habits; the student has surpassed the teacher.

Chen Ruoxi was instantly enraged, feeling betrayed and stabbed in the back.

Taking a deep breath, he glared at Yang Jiaqi and said, "Yang Jiaqi, you're really something! What's in it for you to knock me down?"

Yang Jiaqi said innocently, "Sister Xi, what are you talking about? I don't understand."

Chen Ruoxi said, "Alright, stop pretending. Tell me, what's the deal with that 200,000?"

Yang Jiaqi was truly dumbfounded this time.

"Sister Xi, what two hundred thousand?"

Chen Ruoxi stared intently at her and realized that Yang Jiaqi really didn't seem to know about the 200,000 yuan.

He snorted and said, "That advertiser secretly gave me a kickback of 200,000 yuan, then turned around and reported me. Did you really not know about this?"

Yang Jiaqi was genuinely unaware of this. She did realize that Tang Xiaohua's attempt to contact Chen Ruoxi through her was somewhat ill-intentioned. However, Yang Jiaqi had been exploited too much by Chen Ruoxi, and knowing that Chen Ruoxi was not a good person, she pretended not to know anything and tacitly allowed things to happen.

From beginning to end, she only acted as a matchmaker between the two. She knew nothing about what the other party did, how they communicated with Chen Ruoxi, or what they talked about.

"Sister Xi, I really don't know."

Chen Ruoxi became even angrier when she saw the other person's innocent expression.

"Yang Jiaqi, do you dare to say you know nothing? Why did you introduce this advertiser to me?"

Hearing this, Yang Jiaqi's face flushed with anger, and her voice became unusually firm: "Sister Xi, you've got it wrong. I didn't introduce this advertiser to you; you snatched it from me."

Chen Ruoxi pointed at her, her voice trailing off: "You..."

Yang Jiaqi retorted, "Sister Xi, have you forgotten? This is an advertising company that my elementary school classmate introduced to me. I was so happy at the time. With this, I could get a permanent position right away."

"However, some people think that I am an intern with a low status and not qualified to attract advertisers. They directly snatched the advertisers away from me, and I had to compromise and pretend to be happy."

"Sister Xi, do you think this is my fault? Some people were greedy and took things from me, an intern, and now that something has happened, they're blaming me. Who's really heartless? Who's to blame?"

Yang Jiaqi certainly had reason to be angry. When Tang Xiaohua first approached her, he said he would introduce her to advertisers, and Yang Jiaqi was overjoyed. As long as she could sign a contract, she would immediately become a full-time employee.

However, her joy was short-lived, as Chen Ruoxi soon found out about it and, through a series of maneuvers, forced her to hand over the advertising business to Chen Ruoxi.

Yang Jiaqi later learned that Tang Xiaohua worked at Sitop Group and realized the problem. However, she was furious and hated Chen Ruoxi. She was happy that the other party was in trouble, so naturally she wouldn't remind her.

Chen Ruoxi was speechless after hearing Yang Jiaqi's words. She also remembered that Yang Jiaqi hadn't introduced the advertiser to her. Instead, she had been envious and thought it would be a good thing for the station and help her get promoted. So, she used some tricks to get Yang Jiaqi to hand it over to her.

It seemed that Yang Jiaqi couldn't be blamed for this; it was entirely her own fault. But Chen Ruoxi didn't think so. She had suffered such a huge loss, and Yang Jiaqi knew it was a trap but watched her jump in. How could she let her get away with it?

Whether the other party does it intentionally or unintentionally, she will not let them get away with it.

He sneered and pointed at Yang Jiaqi, saying, "I'm not going to give you any nonsense. Don't forget you're just an intern, someone the station can do without."

"You think you can get a permanent position by bringing me down? Don't dream. Let me tell you, Yang Jiaqi, as long as I'm in this station, you'll never get ahead. I could even fire you tomorrow."

"You're not qualified to play dirty tricks on me."

Yang Jiaqi was going all out.

"Chen Ruoxi, I am not worthy, of course I am not worthy. Who is as ruthless as you, who is as insidious as you. For the sake of popularity and promotion, you orchestrated the Ye Lanqiu incident of not giving up her seat, causing her to be cyberbullied by the entire internet. To maintain the popularity, you deliberately attacked Sitop Group."

"What you're experiencing now is just a retaliation. Do you really think that you can attack others and no one can retaliate against you? That's too naive."

"Now! They're putting the blame on me again, and they think it's my fault."

"Actually, you know yourself that it doesn't matter whether I'm there or not. If they don't contact you through me, they will contact you through other means, and the final result will be the same."

"Don't blame me for this. It's all your own doing, you're just paying the price."

Chen Ruoxi's face flushed red and then turned pale. She snorted heavily and slammed the door shut as she left.

Chapter 261 Outbreak and Resignation

Several days have passed, and during these days Chen Ruoxi seems to have gone mad, launching a frenzied campaign of reporting and smearing against Sitop Group.

Shen Liushu was unaware that something had gone wrong in the plan, and Chen Ruoxi had discovered it in advance, so she naturally wouldn't stand idly by and take the beating.

They communicated directly with the leaders of the TV station through connections, stating that Sitop Group accepts legitimate media supervision, but does not accept deliberate smear campaigns by the media.

If Chen Ruoxi continues to publish unverified news and relentlessly slander and smear Sitop Group, we cannot rule out taking legal action against Chen Ruoxi and the TV station behind her.

The TV station leaders were also worried that things would escalate and become difficult to handle. Shen Liushu was a local celebrity with considerable connections and couldn't be underestimated. Besides, Chen Ruoxi was using the station's resources to spread negative information about Sitop Group and smear them every day.

No one could stand it.

The station's leadership spoke with Chen Ruoxi specifically, asking her to remove the baseless news reports. While feeling aggrieved, Chen Ruoxi calmed down. Her biggest asset was the station, which was also her source of confidence in confronting the Sitop Group.

Furthermore, the suspicion against her hadn't been cleared, and the station could take action against her at any time. Chen Ruoxi could only swallow her anger and remove the articles targeting Sitop Group.

But she was unwilling to be framed like this, and she was constantly thinking about how to get revenge.

The little information she had about the Sitop Group had already been exposed, leaving her with no leverage. Unless she fabricated some dirt on them and launched a smear campaign, there was nothing she could do against the Sitop Group.
