Tangled Up In Blue novel Chapter 49

Sean bowed slightly. "Mr. Xu is waiting outside, saying that he has to apologize to you. He thought that the magazine company with a poor development prospects, ao he didn't pay much attention on it. But now... "

"Tell him not to come in." Malcolm interrupted his words with a touch of disgust and anger on his cold face, "you tell him to pack up his things and leave the company directly in the afternoon."

"Okay, Mr. Malcolm." Sean nodded. After a while, he asked, "Mr. Malcolm, will you continue your interview?"

Malcolm tapped his finger on the table and said, "go on."

"Yes, Mr. Malcolm." A few seconds after Sean left the room, there was a cry and begging for mercy from outside the office.

He read the documents and gave comments on files calmly. Although he seemed not affected, his mind was disturbed while his eyes were not focused.

What would Poppi look like when she saw Benson again?

As soon as Poppi arrived at the periodical office, she found that no one was sitting on the seat. The working hall was in a mess. Everyone was in a panic, running back and forth, or standing at the table to pack up. Some were sweeping the floor, some were dragging the floor, and some were pouring trash……

"What happened?" It took Poppi a long time to find Wendy in the crowd. She held her hand and asked, "didn't the cleaner come today? Why does everyone start to do the cleaning now? "

"Wow! 'Poppi! You are here! " With a slight blush on her face, Wendy sniffed, "I was informed that our new chief editor is coming to inspect today. The director said we must do a good job in the company."

"Chief editor…… Our chief editor has changed already? How come I didn't hear any official news? !" Poppi was shocked, "it's so unlucky to have so many helpers. Will the new leader want to lay off employees?"

"Poppi, it's not the right time to ask now. Let's clean up first!" Wendy said, "I've helped you clean your table, but I didn't dare to move anything on it. Could you tidy it up by yourself? "

"What? …… Thank you, Wendy! " Poppi hurried to thank her and began to pack up her things though she was still in a haze. The colleagues who came after Poppi got the news and immediately joined the cleaning team. The magazine office launched a cleaning activity on Monday morning.

"Stop it! Sit well back! The chief editor is downstairs. He will be here in five minutes. " It was almost work time. Tina's domineering voice came from the entrance of the company. In accordance with her rhythmic high-heeled shoes, her voice was heard throughout the whole magazine office. "Take out your best state! Now, start to work! Hurry up! "

Then the group of people returned to their seats in a hurry. They turned on their computers and sat square, but they kept peeking at the entrance to see who the mysterious chief editor was.

Poppi was also curious about it so she wanted to know who could be the chief editor or the electronic magazine without being noticed……

Ding!

The sound of elevator door opening and the sound of conversation followed, "this way please! Mr. Ji, this is the hall of our Mr. An Entertainment office. "

"Our office just interviewed Hugh a few days ago. And the following interviewee is Mr. Malcolm…"

"They are coming..." On the other side of Poppi, Wendy tilted her head to look at her and said with uncontrollable excitement in her voice. Wearing the most graceful smile, Tina greeted the guests with a smile. She didn't expect the new editor in chief to be so young and graceful. He looked like a handsome gentleman, with soft light in his brown eyes and sunlight shining in his eyes. His hair was a little fluffy and curly, like a prince in the West fairy tale, or a young man coming out of an ancient scroll. Tina remembered a poem, "the boy is as beautiful as jade and who is so infrequent in the world.".

Hearing the rapid and disorderly footsteps, Poppi turned her head and saw several high-level members of the periodical office clustered a young man into the hall.

The young man stepped in the front, casting a glance at the hall. He was graceful, bossy and approachable.

"Wow, so handsome!" Wendy cried in her ear.

However, Poppi's face turned pale. She stared at the young man, motionless, even her fingertips becoming cold. He was Benson Ji! It was him, Benson Ji! It was nobody but him, Benson Ji!

As expected, Benson Ji also saw Poppi. He stopped his steps, with a relieved expression on his face.

"Mr. Ji, this way please!" The editor in chief of the magazine made a "please" gesture and showed them the direction of Poppi backs.

However, it seemed that he didn't see the gesture. He stood up and walked directly to Poppi.

"Mr. Ji, this way!" Tina couldn't help but remind him. But he still walked forward. The executives behind him looked at each other in a daze and followed in a hurry.

"Come towards us!" Wendy was so excited that her voice was trembling. She wanted to shout but dared not! The editor is coming! "

Poppi had already sat up, and her mind was blankly staring at the computer screen. Out of the corner of her eyes, the figure of Benson gradually became clear. Until there was a slight breath of him around her, that familiar voice sounded from above, "Poppi, it's been a long time not see you."

Poppi obviously heard the sound of Wendy sniffing, and she could also feel the countless pairs of surprised eyes staring at her in the office. She once again became the focus because of Benson.

'what's wrong with you? It's been a long time since the last time I saw you!' Poppi thought it in mind. Poppi really wanted to stand up right now and slap him on his face. However, when she heard his voice, her eyes got wet and she was confused right now?

"Poppi! What happened? " Teresa asked.

Out of nowhere, Teresa pushed away Poppi when she saw the terrible look of the managers and said politely, "Mr. Ji greeted you. Why don't you reply? Are you busy now? Let go of my work. "

When she was about to rise from her seat, Benson opened his mouth again, with infinite tolerance and pampering in his voice, "it doesn't matter. Just let her have a seat. I'll take a look here."

The people in the office were all astonished. They stared at Poppi like studying an X-ray and there was doubt in everyone's eyes -- what happened? What happened? "Something must be going on them!"!

Poppi held the mouse tightly and her mind was even more blank. What was he busy with? With her mind being grabbed by her hands, she was in a daze to search for the file on her desk and the interview draft she wrote. With a click sound, the pen in the file fell on the ground and rolled to the foot of Benson.

The corners of Wendy's mouth twitched. Although she didn't know what happened, her sixth sense told her that Poppi was embarrassed!

In a hurry, Poppi moved away the chair and squatted down to pick up the pen, but Benson was faster than her. He bent down and easily picked up the pen. Then he stood up and handed the pen to Poppi and gently rebuked her, "here you are. Why are you so careless?"

"…… Thank you. " Knowing that all the eyes were staring at her, Poppi thanked Mr. Ji with difficulty. Then she took the pen in a hurry and said in a polite and distant tone, "thank you, Mr. Ji."

Benson stared at the tip of her hair, knowing that she would not look up at him, and responded indifferently, "well, then you can go ahead with your work. Have a rest if you are tired. Shall I leave now? "

The tone of inquiry made Teresa and the senior executives behind him stunned. Standing aside, Tina was so angry that she laughed. Her mouth was open and she could not say anything. Tom, who had been following Benson Ji, could not help but feel depressed. What's the relationship between the two! Mr. Ji, you are here for inspection. Why do you ask this woman! Tom thought it in his mind.

Hearing what he said, Poppi was so angry that her body even could not help trembling. But why was he pretending to know her so well after four years? Why should he ask for her opinion as if nothing had happened? All these could only remind her of the past, and how miserable she was at that time! He had said that he would never meet her again, so he should really not meet her again.

"You should leave now." Said Poppi unfriendly.

Sorrow flashed through Benson's eyes. He nodded, "I'll take my leave." After saying that, he paused for another two seconds before he took a step forward. The senior executives behind him followed him closely and went to another hall.

Swoosh

Everyone in the office breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing that they left, Wendy rushed to Poppi and said, "Poppi, you are..."

"Wendy, I don't want to say anything now." Poppi interrupted her with a face full of tiredness. She slumped on the chair with her head buzzing. Colleagues' curious eyes were still lingering around Poppi. However, she was not in the mood to care about anything. She just felt bored and sat still.

It was incredible that Benson Ji had become her boss!

After about an hour, Teresa came back and went straight to the office of Poppi. "Poppi, come with me to my office."

"Okay." Poppi nodded, still in a daze.

"What's going on today? !" After getting back to her seat, Teresa was so angry that she banged on the table and said, "Poppi, I always think highly of you. But today…… You've let me down! "

Poppi stood at the desk and lowered her head, "I'm sorry."

"I don't need your apology!" Teresa waved her hand and said, "don't put your personal issues with chief editor into work! Besides, the chief editor is so polite to you. You should know your attitude! Benson Ji, do you think he is just a chief editor? She is the CEO of the Wind International Group. You can't afford to mess with her! "

Poppi bit her lips harder. Yes, she could not afford to provoke him, so she could just stay away from him?

Teresa was so angry that her chest heaved up and down. After she calmed down, she glanced at Poppi and asked, "do you know Mr. Ji?"

"I don't know him."

However, Poppi refused directly and directly which made Teresa even more angry, "you don't know her?! "Poppi, don't lie me like a three-year-old child!"

Poppi decided to keep silent because she really had nothing to talk to him.
