I’m Really Scared

After Jiang Siyan and Li Zhiying left, the stunned Peng Fei summoned Guan Shan to his office and gave him a lesson.

The content in a nutshell was to blame him for being so reckless today and to not joke about his future.

Guan Shan was recruited by Peng Fei at the beginning and was also clear on how much the latter appreciated and has helped Guan Shan.

Although he wasn’t actually being impulsive today, it could even be said that he did it with certainty, but Peng Fei couldn’t have known that he already had a photo on hand.

Guan Shan could only deal with him by nodding along.

Peng Fei looked at him perfunctorily, patted his shoulder, and said: “I know that you young people have your own ideas, but the situation is better than others. You might be angry today but what about what will happen next?”

“Jiang Siyan would still be the deputy editor-in-chief or your boss. You could deal with it once, but could you deal with it a hundred times? How about a thousand?”

“Let’s not talk about afterward, what are you going to do about the current situation?”

Peng Fei’s face was serious: “Where would you get the photos in one day? Small tricks are not feasible, and once caught, you’ll be ruined.”

The small means naturally refers to P-shopped…

Guan Shan huffed, “Do I look like such a person to you?”

Peng Fei looked at him carefully, shook his head in disappointment, and said melancholy: “If only you were such a person… otherwise, would you go against Jiang Siyan?”

“Please give me a break.”

Guan Shan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry: “I’ll be honest, I actually have a friend who happened to be near the fire at the time. He took a photo of the scene and sent it to me this morning.”

He simply showed Peng Fei the photo on the phone and shrugged: “I was going to upload it to the manuscript library. Who knew I was stopped by Mr. Jiang as soon as I arrived.”

“This…”

Peng Fei was dumbfounded.

He took the phone and looked it over. Based on his years of experience, he confirmed that this photo was really not p-shopped!

And the angle was excellent. It happened to be the fiercest moment of the fire, and the light of the fire reflected the signs of the building crumbling very clearly.

“This friend of yours… has pretty good technique.”

Peng Fei coughed out a sentence after a while, and returned the phone to Guan Shan, but couldn’t help giving him a thumbs up.

“You bull, you deliberately provoked him with this photo!”

His gaze was strange: “I really thought you were an honest kid; I didn’t expect you to learn how to bait someone.”

Guan Shan spread out his hands: “I can’t really be blamed for this, as you can see, Mr. Jiang didn’t give me half a chance to talk.”

“All right, all right.”

Peng Fei waved him away and said unpleasantly: “I was still worried about you, and was ready to recommend you to try the TV station. In the end, what I should worry about is whether Jiang Siyan will die of anger.”

He resumed his usual smile and said, “Do a good job on the special edition! The president’s planning to deal with Jiang Siyan. You’re probably now the number one pioneer in her heart. Don’t waste this opportunity.”

“Understood.”

Guan Shan opened the door of the director’s office.

Next door was Jiang Siyan’s office, that guy was still making tea leisurely, looking calm and relaxed.

Guan Shan shook his head, withdrew his gaze with some amusement, and went back to the news Department.

After just sitting down, a message popped up on his phone.

【Ruixiang】: Xiao Shan, how was it? Was everything okay?

He turned his head to look, and sure enough, saw the heads of a little thief looking at him from the side.

【Qingshan outside the mountain】: There was something, something big!

Guan Shan replied dramatically, then turned on his computer, and sent the photo to Li Zhiying’s QQ account.

Li Zhiying, who always responded within seconds at work, only received the photo after a while and asked where the photo came from.

Guan Shan answered with the same excuse he made to Peng Fei.

【Ruixiang】: Ah! What’s wrong, was it so serious? Director Peng scolded you? Or are there still no photos… if something really happens, I’ll ask my dad to clear everything up.

Guan Shan glanced, Shen Dinghua was staring at the phone, looking tense and nervous.

【Qingshan outside the mountain】: Neither, I’m just hungry.

【Ruixiang】: ψ(*｀ー′)ψ Bad guy!

Guan Shan had a pleasant chat there.

Liu Ping, who was sitting in the front, couldn’t hold back anymore, moved his chair back, leaned his head, and whispered, “Hey, what did the director say to you? Great brother, if I could curse in person like that it’d be worth it even if I had to resign!”

“But ignoring what I said, you were too impulsive, where are you going to find photos in a day…”

Liu Ping and Guan Shan were recruited from the same group. They talked often, so their relationship wasn’t bad.

As soon as he spoke, although they seemed to be working seriously, were in fact listening with their ears pricked up.

After all, everyone here was a reporter, loving gossip was only natural.

Seeing that the guy who usually had a broken mouth was getting ready to start chattering, Guan Shan whispered: “The director didn’t say anything, continue doing your work, I’ve already taken care of the photo.”

Liu Ping was stunned, and asked quickly: “Really? Impossible… you just sat down not long ago. Where did the photos come from… Ah, don’t say anything! Tell me, what’s the situation exactly? “

However, no matter how curious he was, Guan Shan continued to ignore him and focused on chatting with Li Zhiying about the firefighting special edition on QQ.

Liu Ping was stunned.

But now was working hour, and he couldn’t fish for gossip too obviously, so he had to go back to work unwillingly with a stomach full of doubts.

And the others who heard this, naturally, did not believe it.

Dai Yi in the back row curled his lips and coldly snorted, believing that Guan Shan was merely making a final struggle.

‘Just for a bit of face, you’re pretending to be relaxed, haha.’

They were all from the same batch of newcomers, but Guan Shan was especially valued by Peng Fei, but now he felt like he was much better than that guy.

It was nothing more than working overtime to show the boss!

He could not wait for Guan Shan to be directly dismissed this time so that his talents could be seen.

“But… I probably won’t see him tomorrow, right? Haha, he deserves it, he dared to contradict the boss right in his face, his brain was probably smashed to death with a rice bowl!”

“If he could really get the photo, then he could have my surname!”

Dai Yi thought gleefully and deliberately coughed twice, covering his smirk.

All-day long, everyone in the office had been observing secretly, wanting to see what Guan Shan would do.

After all, everyone was curious, what would happen at the end to this warrior who dared to face a bloody ending.

But Guan Shan neither rushed around nor typed furiously.

He didn’t even frown at all.

He worked, as usual, ate with Shen Dinghua, and then continued to work.

There was no sense of urgency at all!

He even ate an extra bowl of rice!

When he got off work, Jiang Siyan, who had already heard that Guan Shan had done nothing all day, walked into the office triumphantly, saw Guan Shan packing up, and smiled immediately: “Isn’t this our magical reporter Guan? I see you’re about to leave. Why? Why are you still collecting things by yourself, are you all blind? Come and help!”

Since the two had torn each other’s faces, Jiang Siyan no longer pretended. This was called being yin and yang.

Guan Shan’s expression remained the same as usual: “Yes, I am getting ready to go, there’s no more work today. So, I was planning to go home early.”

Everyone else suddenly didn’t know what to feel, how could Guan Shan have no work at ordinary times? This was a real resignation!

The warrior still failed to slay the evil dragon after all.

Jiang Siyan took a breath of clear air.

Dai Yi listened from behind, pretending to run over, attentively helped Guan Shan to arrange things, and sighed: “We only worked together for half a year. I didn’t expect you to leave so soon. I’m really reluctant…”

“Hey, there’s no need to move, I still have to use it tomorrow.”

Guan Shan stretched out his hand to stop Dai Yi from moving his files, his face full of bewilderment: “I’m just getting off work, and it’s not like I’m not coming. What are you talking about?”

Dai Yi froze, and so did Jiang Siyan.

The latter immediately sneered: “You were given direct orders from the president. If you couldn’t get the photo today, you would resign! Do you still want to go back on your word?”

Guan Shan spread out his hands: “That’s right, so — I passed the photo to the president this morning.”

“What?!”

Everyone was completely stunned, Jiang Siyan firmly didn’t believe it, and sternly said: “Where are the photos?! Don’t try to casually say things to fool others!”

“Wait for the fire-fighting special edition to come out, why don’t you check it out when you have time to review it? Now it’s time for me to get off work.”

“Oh, the president’s such a good person. Seeing that I usually work seriously, when she was handing over the task of the fire fighting special edition, I was specially allowed to go home earlier without doing anything else.”

Guan Shan sighed, patted Dai Yi on the shoulder, picked up his bag, and said sincerely, “Thank you for helping me organize my things.”

Guan Shan left.

Dai Yi stood awkwardly on the spot, thinking that he had just seriously helped Guan Shan take care of his things, he felt that his eyes went dark, and said, “I’ll be going now”, and ran away.

And Jiang Siyan had so beautifully imagined Guan Shan’s resignation, was now embarrassed by it.

It was sent this morning! THIS morning!

While he was intoxicating himself, things were over long ago!

Guan Shan was here waiting for him to send his face to the door, but the result was he actually ran over and was beaten twice yet still gloating.

“GUAN! SHAN!”

Jiang Siyan gritted his teeth and roared in his heart, slammed the door, and left angrily.

He swore that if that guy was still allowed to stay in the newspaper industry, he would no longer be called Jiang Siyan!

Jiang Siyan strode out of the News Department aggressively, feeling fierce in his heart, and suddenly felt that something tripped him.

“What!”

Jiang Siyan shrieked and fell flat on his face. With a “bang”, his chin hit the marble floor.

Adding to the gritted expression just now, the floor knocked on the lower teeth, the lower teeth knocked the upper teeth, and immediately two front teeth flew out.

The severe pain was accompanied by a strong tremor, like a steel needle striking between toes, causing Jiang Siyan’s eyes to roll, tears burst out, and he fell to the ground and screamed in wretchedly.

“OWWW—”

The picture was so tragic, enough to make a rotten woman say “Knock Knock, Jiang and the floor’s compatibility is really sweet~”

The employees who heard the commotion hurried over to help him: “Mr. Jiang, are you okay?”

Jiang Siyan shivered in pain, covered in cold sweat, he slurred, “Doctor, hospital, quickly take me to the hospital…”

He still had the energy to curse at the moment: “Tomorrow hurry and find someone to repair this broken floor, where could such a big piece of stuff trip my feet!”

The employee was stunned: “No ah, the floor is flat… You see, there are no bumps at all.”

Jiang Siyan was so angry that he stretched out his hand and pointed to the ground: “Where is there none, this is not…”

He suddenly froze.

The floor was indeed smooth and flat, but there were women’s feet in sight.

Red high-heeled shoes, slender ankles, abnormally white skin, showing some blue veins.

Looking up again, there was a strange woman in a white dress.

Jian Siyan’s heart slowed, he screamed “Who are you!?”

The woman didn’t say anything but stared at him directly.

The employee next to him looked around blankly: “Where’s anyone, Mr. Jiang, I am Xiao Wang, Xiao Wang from the editorial department… I’d better hurry and take you to the hospital, right?”

He slandered in his heart, this fall, I am afraid that it also gave a concussion to Mr. Jiang’s head, and he has already started to talk nonsense.

Not only do I have to deal with the dentist, but I also must go to the head trauma department.

Jiang Siyan felt a chill on his back, his scalp was numb, he pulled the employee, pointed at the woman tremblingly, and quickly said, “Is that not it? Don’t you see? Don’t tease me!”

Xiao Wang was dumbfounded. In his opinion, there was nothing here, only a slightly dim corridor.

But Jiang Siyan’s remarks made this corridor that he was used to seeing become more terrifying.

He swallowed: “You, don’t scare me, there’s really no one!”

Jiang Si was anxious: “That! It’s there! Do you see it?!”

Xiao Wang was about to cry: “No! Really no!”

The white-clothed woman moved at this moment. She slowly walked towards Jiang Siyan, and then stretched out her hand, as if to grab him.

Jiang Siyan screamed in fright and roared: “Go back! Don’t, don’t come over!”

Xiao Wang only felt that his blood was flowing backward all over his body, no matter whether Jiang Siyan was broken or really saw a ghost, he tried to drag him back.

But Jiang Siyan was so scared that his legs became weak, and he fell so hard just now that he couldn’t get up.

He was like a drowning man clutching a straw, haphazardly pulling Xiao Wang’s clothes, but as a result, the latter couldn’t break free.

Between the two of them pulling and tugging, Jiang Siyan only saw the white woman’s hand getting closer, her pale face had a pair of black eyeballs, and also revealed a bizarre smile.

He desperately moved backward, but he couldn’t get away.

Jiang Siyan pinned his only hope on Xiao Wang.

But even at this moment, the employee still couldn’t seem to see the woman and was focused on fighting against him.

Finally, when the finger was about to touch Jiang Siyan, he completely broke down.

“Ah-ah-ghost! Ghost! Ghost! Help!”

Jiang Siyan yelled like crazy, hands dancing, because he knocked off two front teeth just now, the fear from his heart made him unable to control his facial expressions, tears and drool flowed down, while he was almost crawling back.

“Hey, give up, others can’t see me at all.”

The woman blinked, straightened up, and kicked Jiang Siyan’s leg with her foot.

It was the same touch as the one that tripped him up!

Jiang Siyan finally couldn’t stand it anymore, his eyes went black, and he passed out.
