Once they left, Big Sis Zhou worried for Zhang Ye, “Little Zhang, you should go, too!”
“That’s right, that’s right!” Another person, Aunt Wang, chimed in, “You should quickly try to grasp an opportunity. Say something nice. Who knows if the Leader might change his mind!”
Previously, Zhang Ye was not popular with his colleagues. Firstly, he had offended the Leader. Secondly, he was new, so he hadn’t had much interaction with others. He did not know many people, which resulted in his poor social popularity. Now, through his fairy tale stories, Zhang Ye had at least managed to gain the liking of the five to six women in the office.
Furthermore, with Jia Yan being young and so aggressive that he did not show any respect for Teacher Feng on his first day, there were many older people who did not like him. As such, they slowly leaned towards Zhang Ye. They did not care that Zhang Ye cursed as he had back when he and Tian Bin cursed at each other on the internet. Tian Bin was a person who usually spoke badly of people behind their backs and since he was the person who first instigated the dispute and Zhang Ye was just reacting to it, it was understandable due to the extenuating circumstances.
Furthermore, no matter how much a jerk Zhang Ye was, he had never been disrespectful to the older people in the station. When had he never been polite when he met them? Just from this point, Zhang Ye was already in a much better position than Jia Yan in the hearts of the older people!
“There’s no need.” Zhang Ye did not go.
“You care about your face too much. Will lowering your head kill you?” Aunt Wang felt exasperated.
Zhang Ye was very clear of the situation, “I have done my things well. I have already put in my greatest efforts into it. The Leader’s decision was likely already decided some time ago. I also won’t be able to change it.”
Although he said so, the process was quite a torment.
Two hours passed since Jia Yan left, but still, he was not seen.
Zhang Ye repeatedly looked as his watch. He also went to the Leader’s office, but there was no one there. He returned to the office and asked an old editor, “Editor Xu, the afternoon’s program is about to begin soon. The Leader isn’t around either. What’s going on? What about today’s program?”
Editor Xu was also unsure what to do. He could not reach Director Zhao on the phone!
Finally as it was approaching noon, Zhang Ye asked, “What’s going to happen?”
